where were u wen sonic die

i was at house eating dorito when phone ring

"sonic is kil"

"no"

servers don't work when there are more than 50,000 players. 5 or 6 different error codes rotate through, none of them I can do anything about. dedicated servers are trash. enemies walking through walls, floating through the air, etc. . . just garbage.


EDIT: Got myself a VPN for Xmas, playing with that I have literally 0 error messages, solid connectivity no matter who I play with. If there is lag now it is on my friends connection to the server but not on mine. My connection wasn't even this good in the beta when it was 90% good. It's like buying an entire other game just to get this game to work, ridiculous to say the least.

EDIT 3: still broken in 2025

EDIT 2: happens much worse now in all sections of the game even the overworld

Has major issues on Windows 11 on some configurations. Freezing for like 5 sec straight and then only unfreezing for like 3 sec before freezing again for 5 sec at the start of the very first level where the player very first starts to control Sonic. If I push through it only happens in the one area of the level but is known to happen in many different Cyberspace areas...

If you have the ability to put Windows 10 on the same PC with this issue and boot the game in Windows 10 the freezing does not happen (according to others).

Checking the system requirements and I notice ONLY Win 10 is listed in both the minimum and recommended. So I guess they are launching an outdated game on day one since it doesn't even work on the current modern Operating System. . . Buyer beware!

EDIT: I have found a 'fix'. The worst kind of fix. Sometimes, seemingly at random when I launch the game, the five second freezing will instead last less than a second like a stutter. When that happens every single instance where this happens will be a stutter instead of a freeze UNTIL the next time I boot the game. Then I have to go to one of these spots and check if it is freezing or stuttering. If it is freezing, restart the game. If it is stuttering, for the love of god don't close the game if you can help it because it will continue to just stutter until the game actually closes. I can load other levels, load the title screen, load different saves, for that entire time the game is running the freezing will instead be a stutter, even if I run it for 6 hours straight. So basically I have to restart the game until the bug is tolerable and then I can play. Usually takes less than 5 restarts. . . (Pretty awful I know). At least I can play I guess

Please skip 'Destroy All Humans! Big Willy Unleashed' and 'Destroy All Humans! Path of the Furon' and make a brand new entry in the series next

It's finally here and it was worth the wait. Immortal Empires is glorious.

Finally after six years we can actually have blood FOR the Blood God

Spider-Man Spider-Man does whatever a spider can spins a web any size catches thieves just like flies look out! here comes the Spider-Man is he strong? listen bud he's got radioactive blood can he swing on a thread? take a look overhead hey there there goes the Spider-Man in the chill of night at the scene of a crime like a streak of light he arrives just in time Spider-Man Spider-Man friendly neighborhood Spider-Man wealth and fame he's ignored action is his reward to him life is a great big bang up wherever there's a hang up you'll find the Spider-Man!

All the negative reviews made me think the event questions would basically be coin flips, choose a) or b) with no way of knowing the outcome. Then I actually played the game and was able to answer many questions correctly the first time thanks to them being overt references to other media such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Cthulhu, Rick & Morty, Portal, Stargate SG-1, The Matrix and Nirvana to name a few. The game play loop is also really short for a rouge-like, losing and starting over doesn't really feel like much of a setback especially when you can speed up time with the press of a button. The different 'chips' you can unlock that are basically modifiers change the game in really interesting ways, so far my favourite is the 'cult' chip which I unlocked for getting the Cthulhu question right, turns your place into literal hell from day one.

I really like this game so far. It reminds me of Tropico if Tropico had continued to make good games into modern times. There is an old-school vibe to it but none of the old-school pains. I dig it.

My favourite feature that I haven't seen before is when the day reaches midnight the time just becomes 'late'. Your character stamina maximum gets reduced so you can't really do any jobs that require stamina but you can craft/cook and move stuff around or just lie on your sleeping bag next to the fire and look at the stars for as long as you want. The next day doesn't start until you sleep (or pass out from running out of stamina or HP).

For me this removes the biggest thing that messes me up in these games, that I am bad at time management. Now I can actually play one of these relaxing farming games and not get stressed out by the clock. The only other sorta farming game I have played where the day/night cycle didn't bother me is Graveyard Keeper but that does time in a unique and different way as well.

I hope they eventually add the ability to save in the middle of the day so my time management is even less of a problem.
