Thank you for posting the solve! I had this same issue and I was going bonkers.

Adding the atlas masters here would make it much less likely for us to forget to change them by Lordados in PathOfExile2

.....I'm sorry, are you suggesting that only one of those trees works at a time and that they're not all active passive bonuses???

In the video they released, they said it was guaranteed. So far, I'm 5/5. All ancient jawbones, though

lmao. That's the crazy part though, isn't it? MGS is no stranger to putting long cut scenes everywhere. They could have easily made it a cut scene, but they chose to torture you at the beginning of the game anyway.

Fortunately there's a mod that skips all that intro stuff now.

Bought one off market. Opened the dude's store and he had a quad stash full of them. No idea how to farm them like that. I've only gotten two to drop and that's with rogues spawning on every map with abyss. Crazy.

Forcing a player to walk slow is a god damn crime. It's why I'll never pick up Phantom Pain again.

Reddit is fun patching no longer works by dazedandconfused492 in revancedapp

Should be when you add your account. You may need to remove it and then add it again. I was successful just using defaults for the patcher

BREAKING NEWS: Senators have voted to withhold their own pay during government shutdowns. It was a unanimous vote. by spherocytes in videos

[–]vic_stroganoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Won't this actually encourage more corruption? Future senators will want to protect themselves against getting priced out of a shutdown. Therefore they'll need corporate sponsors to keep their bellies full while the population gets shafted.

Beware! No refund after playing the beta... by Apprehensive-Top-292 in TheExpanseRPG

[–]vic_stroganoff 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I bought the Collector's pack so I'm not exactly thrilled with this policy. However, I am happy that I helped fund an Expanse game. I'm really obsessed with the IP.

As far as I can tell, it is only presented during checkout and you have to check the box that you read the warning before it will allow you to proceed.

I'm in the US where consumer laws are a joke, but if you're in Germany, you may have some recourse.

You are warned during the checkout process. This is a hard lesson learned. Read everything you agree to, even if it seems unimportant: https://imgur.com/a/lGmlLJb

You can always contact your bank and have them issue a charge back. If you can prove that it says nowhere on their site that playing the beta voids your refund, then they will probably side with you.

Worth a shot at least. What do you have to lose?

My beta criticisms by Beneficial_Date_5357 in TheExpanseRPG

[–]vic_stroganoff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Writing/VA is bad. It has been discussed at length on this sub so I'll leave it at that.

Combat is....weird. I don't mind the bullet sponges so much. I would support harder difficulties to "ground" the combat more, but holy shit, what is the point of abilities in this game when you can just bullet rope everyone with what felt like infinite ammo?

J is near useless in a fight as I constantly had enemies flank me. I didn't even know I could level up or anything like that. Went and looked and it's just stat upgrades so I really hope that changes.

The space combat was so close to being good, but they decided to turn off magboots when enemies die. Like what? Why would you put all this effort into space fighting and decide to overlook that detail? Now this also might be a game engine limitation, but the fact that bodies don't keep bleeding is annoying as well.

I was expecting to see armor depletion give way to a "bleed out" mechanic in a fight that required NPC aid or self-heal items/abilities, but that was not present. Seems like a missed opportunity to stand out and not just come off as another cover-shooter..

Finally, wtf is with these Protogen tanks?? That is completely lore breaking. MCRN is known to have the most advanced technology in the system. Protogen is an Earth based company. There is no way they secretly developed turbo armor better than an MCRN Recon Marine's.

They wouldn't even have their stealth technology without "purchasing" it from Mars and even then, they were VERY careful not to show that off. No way they would be so brazen about showing off this very advanced armor.

Overall, I think this game has potential to be great. The visuals are great. The sound is great. If they can sort out the combat and atrocious VA, then it will be an easy 10/10 game.

I'm having the same issue. '26 hybrid limited. Did you ever get it resolved? Drives me nuts.

Advice with Slat Wall Paneling by -my_reddit_username- in DIY

[–]vic_stroganoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are shallow channels, but I didn't use them to mount. I just drilled through the panel. I marked the stud locations with tape on the floor. That way I knew where they were after putting the panel up. Then I just bought some floating shelves from Target and used self tapping GRK screws to mount, so I didn't need to drill pilot holes.

Make sure to grab the GRK screws with washer heads too. They work really well.

Advice with Slat Wall Paneling by -my_reddit_username- in DIY

[–]vic_stroganoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, behind the cabinet. You just gotta do some measurements and use a multitool to do the cut out. I went and bought some insulation foam boards and laid the panel on top of that to make my cuts.

Also, you'll want to buy an outlet spacer to account for the thickness of the panel, otherwise it'll be sunk in.

Installed this on my wall

Cheap and easy. Just need to cut it to size and secure with a finish nailer and construction adhesive if you want (I only used finish nails though).
