You're leaving out the best part, they added an option to hide seeing 4 specific emotes, two of them were used for racist purposes (I forget the first one, but the other is the banana throwing one), and two of them being the Take the L and the godawful donkey laugh emote. This has made people VERY ANGRY

see no way to make the Wireless Fender Stratocaster Guitar Controller for Xbox One work on xbox despite the chart. it gives me the icons for navigating, which work, but doesnt work in festival. if i do the PRO GUITAR or bass tracks it just tells me to swap device

if I do a normal instrument, it binds the first two lanes to left and right on the dpad and the other lanes to the first few frets.

if I go to the settings to rebind the keys, clicking the fret just backs out every time

This exact thing happens to me with the just-released riffmaster. I tried a few things Reddit said to, and nothing.

Also having to remove the panel every time to store the dongle sucks. At first I thought it just flipped open to store it, but no, you have to tear the plate out of its fragile little latching tabs every time. Who's idea was that?

I'm so bummed cause I sent a car flying on accident trying to set up a barrier against a guy shooting me from behind a tree. The car flew over, destroyed the tree, then landed on the guy running away from his destroyed cover, and I forgot to save the video.

i find it super annoying that i have nvidia highlights set up to automatically save and yet it seemingly constantly breaks on the games that i do godlike on. like it'll work fine up until it doesn't, and they're usually really good games. what's up with that

Beve Stuscemi

It’s not just you. My highlights function breaks at random too.

The only sure fire way is just to record your matches with the nvidia recording function and then edit them down with something like Microsoft clipchamp (which actually sort of rules if you haven’t used it). But that’s dependent on you remembering to press record, which I often forget until something cool happens.

I've had good luck having my guitar and a controller on, and just being sure to hit the controller buttons before the first track loads, then going back to guitar and hitting buttons and it's fine from there (tilt to overdrive isn't perfect).

Tonight I was playing round after round with Airbending, and I realized, its so fast, and its essentially infinite, I wonder if you can cheese an entire Zero Build match with just Airbending?

Maybe some year they'll license Hologram Girl and I'm Han Solo

- Soon, Lightnings will start happening from outside the map until it reaches some landmarks.

- The lightnings will cause earthquakes and craters at different places in the map.

- At the end, the lightnings will reach the hand and the chest in the water, it's not known what happens after 👀.

- This Mini-Event has 5 phases and it's completely encrypted so some of these info might not be 100% accurate.
