Be sure to enable 'Above 4G Decoding' and 'Resizazble BAR Support' in the BIOS of your PC!

WoW really cares about that (as of last week) for some reason. I was getting constant crashes when starting WoW from the Battle.Net launcher, until I made those changes (Fedora/KDE Linux, Proton Steam Experimental (and other non-Steam Protons)).

Irony is that I had them set before in by BIOS, but had updated by BIOS and assumed my non-default settings would carry over to the new BIOS version, but did not. So double-check your BIOS for those two settings, if you are having problems.

Recently read this on a Steam game's reviews section ...

User Comment...

The game's Discord REQUIRES your personal phone number to get access at all. This is a very intrusive, and 100% unnecessary requirement, in order to just be able to interact with others about the game, it's content, player experiences, and many other things. It's also intrusive in regards to being able to contribute any input to help other players in any way at all.

Dev Response...

It's Discord that's asking you for verification of the account. We're not getting your phone number. This is standard practice on bigger servers that allows for a better user experience, filtering bots/ spam accounts, trolls, etc.

Could companies please STOP lying about it being Discord's choice, its not, is the Discord server's choice to ask for it.

Its a "Verification Levels" setting that the server op sets, and they have multiple options that they can choose from, its not an on/off switch. They can dial it back one notch and still have spam/bot protections.

The only difference between "High" and "Highest" verification levels is the addition of asking for a phone number, all other features of "High" is in "Highest", and "Highest" has no other extra features besides asking for the phone number.

Makes it really hard to have an pseudonym account on the Internet, for gaming purposes, and then be asked for your real phone number. I don't need to be tracked 24/7.

Hello all. I'm not sure how to phrase my question, so bear with me.

Is there a way in DF to slow down how fast it dishes out events? I find myself being overwhelmed by the events as they occur, and not being able to catch up on resolving them.

For example, if I'm working on resolving the ramifications of event A, and event B happens. Then when I just start working on event B, event C happens. And before I'm done with event B, event D happens as well, etc.

Everything from when dwarves get unhappy, to new arrivals, to when attacks happen, etc.

Basically, I'm feeling piled on and cannot get out from under the pile.

Another way of asking the question, can any trigger time threshold on the in-game calendar be slid out into the future for all events, like at a slower 2x or 3x rate? For example, instead of the check for new arrivals happening every year, have the check/arrivals happen every second or third year, etc.

FYI, it's a really good server 1 to 60. You can set your own XP rate from 1 to 4.5, and I've seen no real bugs.

At 60 you automatically get boosted to 80 (including your profs) and you get level 80 beginner gear. From there you quest from 80 to 85 and do all the endgame stuff.

FYI though, while the BC and Wrath zones do exist, I do not know if they've been fully scripted and are functional or not.

I've flown around in some of the BC zones for herbing in mining purposes, and everything seemed copacetic, but like I said before, I believe most people take the free boost at 60 because they're there to experience the cataclysm content, so I don't know what state those zones are in for questing.

(I am not affiliated with the server in anyway whatsoever, just currently playing on it, and wanted to create a post in this community for content for others to read).
