  1. Past hour
  2. Today
  3. I don't know if this has happened for anyone else but since the first launch of grounded 2 Pete's head with grow a second meshed face with no eyes but eye sockets on the back of his head. It is only visible for the person playing Pete if you are in multiplayer.
  4. First, YES I've went through all the suggested check lists and read multiple web sites and forums on similar issues. YES my PC has more than enough horsepower. YES I went through my network settings. PC specs: 13th gen CPU, 3.0GHz, i9-13900kf, 64GB installed Ram, 4GB SSD drives (x2) plus legacy HHD's, Win 11, 420 liquid cooler, 1000w PSU. GPU: Radeon RX 7600 XT with 16GB onboard RAM. Not top notch by any means, but it gets the job done. NETWORK: I have all Gigabit hardware to the telephone pole. Plenty of speed. Latency usually stays below 30-40. Game: Grounded 2 from XBox Gamepass (not Steam). My kids also acquired the game from Gamepass. Here's the issue: I play Grounded 2 on my PC. My kids play it on their XBox(s) series X. When they host, I can join them no problem and play anywhere from a few minutes to as long as 10 min and then for no reason the game will kick me. The exact same thing will happen to them if I host. I've checked everything I could think of. I even uninstalled my antivirus program to make sure it wasn't port-scanning, blocking, etc. YES I looked through my router and other network settings. Since I can join my kids game (and vise-versa), I can assume my network is configured correctly otherwise it wouldn't allow me to connect and play even though it's briefly. Now the fun part: This EXACT same problem happens when we play ARK Ascension. After briefly playing, it will kick me. So... Is this an Unreal engine issue? What's the common denominator here? What am I missing? Also fun note: if I join them using my XBox S, we can all play with zero issues. So any ideas? Please help while I still have some hair left!
  5. I'm pretty sure the last phase of Grand Mother Silk has some patterns that cannot be avoided. She sometimes throws her blades at you from beyond the screen while you have to track spikes on the ground or falling debris, and they're way too fast to dodge without seeing them being launched. Other than that, was okay-ish for a "final" boss fight, but of an uninspired Radiance knockoff. Onwards to act three, after I get rid of the curse, that is.
  6. Yea my black ant is doing it and it’s annoying cause it causes wild aphids to run away when I try to tame them
  7. Maybe values of deflection you have to achieve if you want to get to 100% misses (enemies' attacks against you) - against certain enemies (megabosses?) I assume?
  8. I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE. The amount of cringe and mediocrity with the final boss/ending is outrageously unacceptable. First, the cutscene transition from boss battle gameplay { " your true selves " }. - It's glitchy, frame delay, FPS drop. | Remove the oval distortion effect too, think of something immersive. Secondly, here's the cringe part, the boss dialogue is outrageously³ cringe. - The voice acting feels like the VA is about to cry. Come on! This is the final battle, it's supposed to make us feel anxious, scared, intimidated. | The dialogue really needs some changing, or maybe an entire rework. Lastly, { " you might have potential " } the boss flees and lets us fight a spider bandit. - the boss is just standing there watching, soullessly. This sh* really breaks immersion, like come on, dude, w*#. | At the very least, add some movement, dialogue, just please², think of something immersive. ____________________________________________ ADDITIONAL IMPROVEMENTS • When the boss is half health, she will perform her fleeing animation. - add some huge knockback to the player. | Get knocked or dodge it. • The spider's name, `BANDIT` really?, you might want to change that. • Masked stranger ---> Stranger • After you beat the spider bandit, the game stops for 1s, proceeds to fade out. | I don't know if I'm asking for too much, or I just want the game to be immersive = good. - what if, yeah, let's have a 1s stop, but the screen doesn't fade out. So from the spider pov, it proceeds to zoom to the boss with omnidirectional angle. To clarify, it zooms from wherever you killed the spider. : this suggestion might be hard to implement, so just think of this as an upgrade that will make the game better, but not likely to happen. THE FATE OF THIS FEEDBACK IS FOR YOUR TEAM TO DECIDE.
  9. More XCOM 2012. I have cleared the Alien Base on Earth and captured first Sectoid Commander. The game is throwing at me pretty tough encounters now. Lost few soldiers due to that. Once I had 6 Mutons and 3 Floaters thrown at me after a single move by one of my soldiers
  10. I've never been able to log into my Xbox account on one of my PCs. To this day, it insists I need to have Xbox Gaming Services installed when I already do and have re-installed them multiple times. Devs have yet to acknowledge that anyone is facing this issue, to my knowledge. When they updated to introduce a "path" for users to sign into Xbox, all they did was add a pop-up telling people to install Gaming Services when they already have. Sucks, big time.
  11. Time moves faster every day, but I woke up this morning and it's apparently still Trump (and Trump-think)-era, so it's not moving fast enough. I occasionally still watch docs re: international/S. Korea adoptees (60's-80's, culture, psychology, trauma), because it's interesting/explains a lot, at least for many of us. I mean, it doesn't mean tons to me personally at this point, but it's still extremely relatable. I still feel like an alien sometimes, in that "I don't belong anywhere", culturally, social-class/status perception, other. Anyway, hubby and I the usual, he took today off, we're going to go waste the day somewhere for a while, spend some cash, eat some good food. Then probably come home and nap.
  12. I have two Xboxs in the house, and my son and I play Grounded 2 on two accounts. Because of some of the tech issues, I just ponied up and purchased the Founder's Edition on each account for each Xbox. We're trying to fight Axl this weekend. We use my son's account to host the multiplayer game. And I can log into the game from his account. But when I go into Grounded 2 from my account, I can't join his multiplayer game. When I try from the Grounded 2 "Multiplayer>Join Online Game" prompts, I don't see any "Games Hosted by Friends"; even though my son and I are friends on Xbox When I try to go through the Xbox Main Menu and use "People>Friends>Join Game" option, I can see that he's in the game. However, when I try to join the game, I get "Join Game Failure/There was a problem joining the game/Network Incompatible" error. I bought the game twice to try to avoid these issues. Any ideas?
  13. What we need is a fresh water and salt water garden for the seaweed, pond moss, and other water flora.
  14. What do you mean with "deflection breakpoint"? Or you mean defense since you wrote 4 scores, maybe DEF, REF, FOR, and WIL?
  15. Huh, mean place to leave the season finale of Dandadan...
  16. I enjoyed both seasons, its obviously exaggerated but its entertaining
  17. I would like to start by mentioning that we are a four person Xbox group. As a result a lot of our suggestions are going to be from the view of a group of console players. We would love to see some of the following things implemented or tweaked: - Building from the wheel as a console player is very cumbersome. It would be nice if we had the ability to use RB/LB to toggle categories or sections instead of having to go page by page to get to what you want. - For the love of all that is good in this world.....let two people use the same bin at the same time. - An easier, less involved way for console players to drop one of something at a time, like in grounded would be nice. - Some consistency or better explanation on how things are selected would be great as well. Using the building wheel you have to toggle to what you want and select A. However, using your hotpouch you have to toggle to it and release. If you press A it glitches out. It took way longer than necessary to try and figure that out. Being able to use your hotpouch while running for your life...would also be great. - Next, for the love of all that is good in this world.....let two people use the same bin at the same time. - It would also be great if the backpacks were labeled on the map. Right now we can see the entire groups bags and very quickly lose track of whose is whose. On that same note it would be amazing if you could carry your friends bag (like the ant eggs) so you can bring them back to HQ. - Since we're a group we love the changes to the Omni-tools. The fact tools are not constantly breaking and upgrades apply to everyone is great! We also love they aren't taking up space in your bag anymore. We would, however, love to see the ability to have more control over when to use the tools. - We would love to see some fun new creative building options. Acorn elevators, needle climbing shoes and ropes for lowering and pulling up friends. - Finally, for the love of all that is good in this world.....let more than one person use the same bin AT THE SAME TIME!
  18. If you classify a formal dinner with an established level of decorum that includes a dress code as " shiny things " then you right Typically " shiny things " would be someone driving a Ferrari or a personal choice to wear lots of diamonds at some celebrity event and fans say " wow....look at those diamonds " A 1000 year old historical castle and a military procession is not typically considered that but whatever makes you happy
  19. Yes, Utah has some really beautiful scenery. I never appreciated it until we took a photography tour down there. It's a terrific place for sunset lighting. Of course, the geologist down there blamed us up in Washington for "stealing" all their rain.
  20. Apparently DJT has done this before, but nothing came of it. As usual he's wasting government money and resources chasing his own alternate reality viewpoint.
  21. My friend also still cannot open the game for this exact reason as of today, September 18th, which is worse than before where he could at least open the game but not play it. Is there a resolution in the works????
  22. Still having problems with this, tried installing GDK itself from github. Uninstalled and reinstalled gaming services, tried deleting the augusta folder, updated windows, can't get it to work.
  23. I reverted back to NVIDIA driver 581.08 and it works if its the first thing I load after a restart or startup. If thats the case, I wonder if it has something to do with shader cache.
  24. Not sure if this is the best place to report this.
  25. Yesterday
