I doubt its AW since people have already been playing that. It might be ACU, what with that video posted earlier with the really bad character model popping.

Give it a year. The new one has a Career mode inspired by Dark Souls where CAWs created by your friends can invade your career and muck around with your storylines and matches.

Check your System settings, mine automatically turned "Stay Connect to the Internet" off under Power Saving Settings > Set Functions Available in Rest Mode when the update hit.

The 2.0 update is the worst friggen thing ever. Is there anyone whose console it didn't destroy with rest mode? My earlier fix attempts with validating my e-mail again don't work, I'll try the disc removed thing I guess, which defeats half the point. Oh well.

I haven't had a single problem. 2.0 has been a dream. It's fast and has added features that I've wanted since launch.

I don't use rest mode. I have warned my friends, though.


shortspecialbus posted:

If you don't need to play online, I wouldn't. It's fine when it's actually booted, but practically everyone gets stuck in sleep (rest) mode and has to pull the power cable just to turn it on.

This is a bit alarmist, I think.


Nevertheless, we went over this pages ago. If you've experienced an issue with rest mode since 2.0, don't use rest mode. Don't recreate the situation with rest mode that crashed your console. Don't continue to unplug your console and possibly corrupt your saves by assuming rest mode might work this time. And don't come into this thread and post about how you didn't take anyone's advice and continued to use rest mode after you had problems with it and people advised you not to use it. I'm sure it will be patched soon and, unless you're one of the brave souls who wants to continue searching for bugs at his own risk, please abstain from use of the feature. tia goons

:dukedog:
Mountain Dew was always very successful as the ***EXTREME*** beverage due to a very successful marketibg campaign in the early to mid nineties. After that they coasted on licensing deals. It didn't really become a joke until fairly recently though due to it being consistently embraced by Activision with tie-in World of Warcraft flavors, the CoD marketing, etc.

I don't know, but that reminds me of Jolt Cola. Now there was a soda for real gamer nerds back in the 90s/early to mid 00s, it had more sugar than all the other colas combined and double the caffeine. :kheldragar:

White lightning jolt was the best because it tasted exactly like dimetapp. But it was never as ubiquitous as Mountain Dew got. Mountain Dew really is suoer sugary though and it's not even real sugar unless you get a more expensive variety of it.

Here in Finland we only have the regular old Mountain Dew, no different flavors or GAMER FUEL or anything like that. Ours probably has less sugar than the US version as well because we're boring like that.

They rebranded it in Australia and chucked in some extra caffine to kind of push it as an "energy" drink...Don't really drink any of them much myself.

Posting here cos I actually got a ps4 yesterday, bit underwhelmed by it. The PSN store seemed pretty empty compared to the ps3 one, I thought theyd be all over it by now, I want to get that rubber duck game for my kids, oh well.

Man, there's like no dead zones on the DualShock 4's analog stick. I never really noticed it before until playing Strider which requires the analog stick and I keep loving ending up in the opposite direction because I let go of the analog stick and it imperceptible triggered the other direction while returning to its resting position.

Just another reason why 2D platformers should default to the d-pad. This should be industry standard.

e: I just read an article that developers can compensate for controller dead zones so I'm going to blame Double Helix for the twitchy controls.

I'm having that issue in Spelunky but I thought it was just because I installed aluminum analog sticks. I thought they were too heavy and consequently pulled my character the other way whenever I released the stick. I keep turning my back to bats and snakes. I've just resorted to the d-pad.

^^^Canada has a weird law on what beverages can be caffeinated, its restricted basically to coffee, tea and cola.

Video games have become just as common a social activity as shooting hoops to high schoolers so teenagers love junk food and video games so put them together and there you go.
