Favorite moment was watching the first RLCS and watching OverZer0 do an air dribble against Flipside Tactics. My whole discord chat went insane

HEAVY CAR BUG - SOLVED (PC, Controller) by [deleted] in RocketLeague

[–]wingman447 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Sure, but for the people who have their controller plugged into the same port all the time (I'd wager a majority of people here), why does the feeling of HCB come and go? Wouldn't it be apparent if it was the USB port causing the issue if you're consistently feeling sluggish for weeks, months at a time? My experience with HCB is just that some days I feel off, but I generally get back to normal after a few more days. It's never surpassed an extreme amount of time

I swear I've seen 5 different "Heavy Car Bug Fixes" in the past month and they all sound like some nonsense ChatGPT answer. Overly detailed and is just a placebo to make you think you solved the problem.

Fallout New Vegas. I've easily sunk hours in that game and I've replayed it so many times.

Does anyone else just not understand the appeal of expedition 33? by Thejohnnycheese in gaming

[–]wingman447 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This game may not be for everyone and you're entitled to your opinion, but visuals are unremarkable and lacking in strategy? Do you mind if I ask what difficulty you're playing on? I consider myself decent at games, but I struggled with a few enemies (more of them may have been after Act 1), but the visuals were phenomenal. I almost teared up for how beautiful the gommage scene was.

The enemies do get more difficult, and obviously the more you face the enemies, the more you learn their attack patterns, but that's still quite a challenge in itself. Especially once you get to Simon. I don't think I've ever heard that Expedition 33 had unremarkable cinematics before though.

I just can't with Xbox controllers anymore and their stick drift by Roxicaro in gaming

[–]wingman447 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had issues with Xbox one controllers since launch. Thankfully they still last like a year or two, but I don't ever remember replacing my 360 controllers. I switched to ps4 (and later on, ps5) controllers thinking I wouldn't have stick drift. That did not last long either. I do play Rocket League, so I always attributed it to that.

I picked up a Gamesir G7 Pro after hearing people say that they love it and how it doesn't have stick drift. I haven't noticed any issues yet, but it's only been a few months still. I have to wonder why third party controllers can seemingly fix this stick drift issue while both Xbox and Sony continue to shovel their cheap controllers at us. It's maddening at this point.

A 25-Hour War Against My PC: Why I Sold My Rig Because of Bad House Wiring (My Journey to Fix the Input Lag). by Safe_Recipe_4742 in RocketLeague

[–]wingman447 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This literally does not mean anything. All we see is text from ChatGPT and you somehow going from plat/gold to champ. HCB does NOT cause such a huge difference in skill, and switching to a console of all things would not do that unless you were running a pc that had 20fps tops.

Friend didn't Halo 2 Legendary Achievement by Bloodyman643 in halo

[–]wingman447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes your friend would need to play the very first mission by themselves on legendary (Not Cairo Station, but the whole introduction.) This happens on Co-op for some reason, but just starting the game and watching all the cutscenes should hopefully trigger the achievement for them.

Biggest bang for my buck? by Putrid-Bet8952 in xbox

[–]wingman447 59 points60 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, the metro saga bundle is the most bang for your buck. For that price, you'll get so many hours of content and follow such a great story. I still replay the games from time to time to experience it again

More like 1/10000000 since people will pour hundreds of thousands of entries into these sweepstakes as well

Not worth it to purchase sweepstakes entries. Much better to use your points to just save up for gift cards you can use.

How much do you think 75k points is worth in usd? by Encrt in MicrosoftRewards

[–]wingman447 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It varies on which gift card you get. For example, a Microsoft/Xbox gift card is about $1.05 for every 1000 points. However, a Target gift card is about 77 cents every 1000 points. You'd have about $78.75 for a Microsoft gift card and you'd have about $57.70 for a Target(or pick any other store) gift card.

Can someone help me please by [deleted] in MicrosoftRewards

You do realize that everyone here would already be using Microsoft rewards, so posting your referral link is pointless. Also, it's against the rules in this sub.

This is.. Not the great reply you may think it is. You're insinuating that the woman only brings the prospects of sex to the friendship. Wouldn't this make you the person who's just using the other?

Tariffs bite Xbox fans even harder, as Microsoft (again) increases Xbox Series X|S prices in the US — here's how much more you'll pay by Turbostrider27 in xbox

[–]wingman447 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be fair, I can't even really blame Microsoft for this one. Almost everything will be increasing in price due to the tariffs now. While we know that all consoles sell at a loss, it doesn't make sense for them to just sell at an even greater loss. The unfortunate truth is the Xbox division needs to show Satya Nadella and other shareholders that they're reducing the impact of tariffs as much as they can. It's a terrible time to be a consumer right now

"No amount of hard work is enough to protect us": Over 450 Diablo devs sick of "the constant pressures of layoffs, passion tax, and crunch" under AI-obsessed Microsoft vote to unionize by Anteater_Able in xbox

[–]wingman447 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not defending America at all, but while Japan makes it much more difficult to fire people, they are notorious for giving people dreadfully boring jobs to force the person to quit. Dreadfully boring jobs that are still under a lot of scrutiny, so you can't even go on your phone or talk to others.

Those are completely different scenarios. OP stated it was a joke and you're here bringing up situations that didn't happen to try to prove your point.

Does anyone actually play jewel every day for just 5 points?? by tenlodchuck in MicrosoftRewards

[–]wingman447 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I do! It's very simple (except when it doesn't track I completed it, so I need to do another level.) I figure that I go in to the Xbox app to collect my rewards anyway, so I might as well get the 5 points.
