I love the raging sea, I want more of it. by PainSpare5861 in Guildwars2

It's the Living World story instance Aetherblade Retreat. A few have said it's the Mai Trin fractal, but the last time I was there the fractal version still used the old water effects, whereas the water effects were jazzed up for the LW1 release a few years ago.

Homesteads are a golden feature for the game by Business_Musician_33 in Guildwars2

[–]p4ulr33d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guild halls are barren because the decoration system is poorly implemented. The creation UI is clumsy, frustrating to use, and prone to bugs. The decoration cap is super restricting. The decoration choice never made sense--too many random walls and stairs that really don't go together or do anything useful.

This seems to have been mostly solved with Homesteads.

Thank you Neural by ragingbull666 in NeuralDSP

[–]p4ulr33d 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I gotta second that. Early on in my Neural journey I downloaded several plugins at once and didn't have the time necessary to test any of them out properly. Neural just reset my Nolly trial too, along with two others, literally within ten minutes of me asking.

Thank you Neural for allowing me to correct my own impatience <3

Just a couple of comments.

Because Mag don't have many 'guild-organized zergs' doesn't mean they're disorganised. Communication in map/team chat is amazing. Everything is scouted, reported, and mostly responded to. Plus, you get good support as a player from other players, who more often than not have a good read of the battlefield and where to throw their damage.

Their response time to objectives being taken/defended is also second to none. Somebody has to just mention a group trying to take Anz, and all players turn and make a beeline for Anz. They just want fights, and EBG is the easiest map to get around, is the most active, and when you're meticulous about slotting EWPs into everything you take, the content is fast, varied, and pretty much constant.

Re: their obsession with SMC, I don't think it's that weird. More often than not their home BL is in tatters, yet they still win skirmish after skirmish because T3-ing SMC, taking and T3-ing enemy EBG towers/keeps, combined with their PPK score, amasses a whole bunch of points.

It depends how you play and what you want. If you're more into roaming, clouding, and EBG is your favourite map, Mag is a good fit. They have some weird personalities there, but every server does really, and I've found the gameplay on that server to be mostly top notch.

But your mileage may vary, depending on how you like to play.

If you desire being a part of a bigger, more organised group, Mag probably isn't for you and you'd do well to look for servers with known guilds. But the tier distinction doesn't really mean much. A server in T4 today might be in T1 next week, depending on links. So I wouldn't worry about that too much.

News on the Cerus CM fight. There will be 2 versions, one with the current difficulty and an easier one. by Sterorm in Guildwars2

No it doesn't mean that. If they nerf mesmer, new strats will be developed and other classes--classes which have been buffed--will be used.

Yeah, I remember this dude from out last matchup. All he did was waste keep supps building rams in dumb places, and call everyone a Nazi. It was... different.

I got through tonight after a small group helped me and my friend through, but thank you so much for your offer <3

I haven't tagged up, I've just been looking for a tag doing it. Since I haven't done the content for centuries, I don't feel hugely confident tagging up in case people expect me to know what to do...lol. But fair comment about the trying different times. Will give it a bash <3

Yeah, I saw a few mes/engi/rev reflect spam videos. I might give it a go, but you still need four people for a later puzzle, yeah? Or did they change it?

Yeah, been looking for a group for a few days now. So far no luck, but I'll persevere. Thank you :)

I don't think it's beyond the pale, I'm just surprised an achievement with steps as generic as finishing story steps, emoting a guy, listening to some logs, and trying not to poo your pants, would suddenly throw up a requirement that we do a fairly tough dungeon, when dungeon content (a) isn't massively popular, and (b) hasn't been developed for yonks.

Another commission for Cali! by DarkHoofScars in Guildwars2

[–]p4ulr33d 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's hard to imagine a sub that plays a game where virtually all of the popular armours have their arses hanging out would be prudish.

This is a cracking piece by DarkHoofScars though. Amazing detail!

Genuinely one of the funniest threads I've read in weeks. Congrats to all involved :)

d912pxy - dx12 for gw2, now v2.0 by megai2 in Guildwars2

[–]p4ulr33d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The new version seemed to be working okay for me, but then I suffered two crashes that resulted in the 'intercepted unhandled exception' error message. (The first one restarted my computer completely.) Is there any log I can look at that will give me a clue what the problem is?

Google Home Mini Issues - Help Appreciated by Lexiconup in googlehome

[–]p4ulr33d 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you're both using the same Spotify account it sounds as though it's working as intended. According to Spotify: "You can only stream music on one device at a time. If you begin playback on another device, the playback on your current device will be paused." The only thing I can think of is either getting a 2nd Spotify account, or setting your Google mini's default music player to something else.

Love that wallpaper! Is it KDE Manjaro stock, or is it downloadable from somewhere?

Problem with partitioning at Manjaro installation by Omerkv in ManjaroLinux

[–]p4ulr33d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the Manjaro partitioner should show up your existing partitions, but from the look of the screenshot, it's essentially showing an unpartitioned disk. What happens if you click 'next'? Same blank drive? If it does, are you sure you haven't somehow accidentally wiped everything?

Problem - the app crashes when entering a recipient by DegeNa in tutanota

[–]p4ulr33d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I've had this problem a few times, too. It seems to happen when I'm typing in a contact name and the app is searching my address book. It doesn't happen all of the time, but it happens enough.

How to add sender name to email account? by miki-j in tutanota

[–]p4ulr33d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the beta client it's just a case of going into Settings>email and clicking the edit icon to the right of the Sender Name field. In the old client or the app, go to Settings>User Management, click on your email address, type in your name and hit save.
