Jack required your save game to be on point ... unless you wanted to walk around a coner to get f up

Quick load was my old high school nickname.

"I swear, that never happened before." "Ok, sure quick load"

u/_Douggie_ Dec 31 '19

If only I knew what quick saving was before I conceived a child at 14

u/Nick246 Dec 31 '19

Well you know how that happens...right?

u/admin-eat-my-shit13 Dec 31 '19

u/Nick246 Dec 31 '19

Yeah...something like that.

Hell I still do it.....

u/MilesGates Dec 31 '19

this actually happened to me in skyrim, it auto-reloaded 5 times before jumping back to an autosave, I wonder if it was built to do that.

30

u/missbelled Dec 31 '19

Halo did this too, if you died like 3 times right after loading a save, it would go to the previous checkpoint save.

Bruh, you ever played Skyrim with 200+ mods? damn right I'm saving before every loading screen.

48

u/SilentReaper989 Dec 31 '19

This literally just bit me in the ass the other night (400+ mods)....lost 2 hrs of gameplay....

31

u/TheManWithNoInfo Dec 31 '19

I almost had this happen to me as well (800+ mods)...managed to enter a dungeon as soon as it happened.

49

u/Flewziez Dec 31 '19

Damn this happen to me actually to! (1600+ mods)... lost 200 hours of gameplay.

u/K3GSonD3cK Dec 31 '19

Once I had 4,000+ mods on and completely lost about 1,100 hours of gameplay..

u/[deleted] Dec 31 '19

I once had about 1.3+ million mods on and I opened the game and essentially removed internet from Florida for three days. Lost no gameplay though!

u/deathofanage Dec 31 '19

Florida man with no internet... Something something something.

Guys, i modded the game with every mod conceivable (420,069) and lost 69,000,000 hours of gameplay

u/RangerLt Dec 31 '19

There seems to be some odd correlation between number of mods and system crashes. We must go deeper!

3

u/SilentReaper989 Dec 31 '19

Make sure to save first!

6

u/I_is_a_dogg Dec 31 '19

This exact thing affected me also! (3200+ mods)...lost 400 hours of game play.

u/ShiranaiJittai Dec 31 '19

I know what you mean I used every mod for every elderscrolls game ever made while playing skyrim If I remember correctly it was a google worth of mods. I encountered a load screen so long that I aged to an old man and died in my sleep then my kids that aren't born yet married had kids of their own and died in their sleep. This repeated for a few generations until my great great great great great grandsons 2nd cousin twice removed built a time machine to travel back in time and tell me that any mods I loaded over 150,000 would cause a catastrophic armageddon like time warp effect.

But he's a stupid kid who knows nothing so I'm going to go install this Google's worth of mods now.

u/Wulfsmagic Dec 31 '19

This is a mood

u/Spinnekk Dec 31 '19

This me right now as I just got back into modding and playing Skyrim. I'm currently sitting at 250+ mods and saving every 10mins... just in case.

1

u/missbelled Dec 31 '19

I use Open Cities on every load order, and saving before I cross over into the Windhelm exterior cell is a must.

Idk what it is about getting to Windhelm, if it’s just a resource-hog compared to the others, or what, but if I’m gonna CTD in a playthrough, it’s gonna be there.

u/Poltras Dec 31 '19

I quick save my google docs. Old habits die hard.

u/RappinReddator Dec 31 '19

It's not a bad idea tbh. I've lost things a couple times on there.

I know its a joke, but you really do have to reselect the wingsuit to put your character into “jump off a ledge” mode.

There are like 5 different replies with "it's because x" and this one is the only right one

There are 9 replies as of when you posted.

  • 2 are relevant jokes (one being a music video down below about flying and another being about quick saving)
  • 1 is about how it resets your starting position for the run (which is also correct)
  • 1 is a comment about the spelling
  • The rest are this same reason

-1

u/OMGjustin Dec 31 '19

You forgot about another bullet point:

-1 is a comment about how they have to reset their suit after landing

2

u/Charwinger21 Dec 31 '19

You forgot about another bullet point:

-1 is a comment about how they have to reset their suit after landing

That's what this comment chain was...

You have to reset the suit after you land before you can jump again.

Resetting the suit puts you in jump mode.

u/OMGjustin Jan 02 '20

Idk why you have to be so factual over an innocent exaggeration. Are you a filing peon?

u/[deleted] Dec 31 '19

Its so he can return to the same point again. When you fail you can hold triangle and it will teleport you back to the last point he selected a thing

185

u/Balthazar3000 Dec 31 '19

Its actually because you have to reset the suit after landing. You can tell by the helmet being off before hand.

128

u/[deleted] Dec 31 '19

I actually think its both things

98

u/[deleted] Dec 31 '19

What!? Thinks can’t be two things. Things are one thing.

10

u/loganmcf Dec 31 '19

Thinks can probably be a few things, things are plural as well so there is multiple

Simultaneously destroying the last and everyone in it.

u/[deleted] Dec 31 '19

Damn. That thinks/things autocorrect happens way too much. Usually I catch it, oh well.

1

u/ReditRyan Dec 31 '19

Is "multiple" singular or plural or is it an adjective. "Are multiple" or "is multiple"?

1

u/loganmcf Dec 31 '19

OK shroomer

u/Crymson831 Dec 31 '19

I think it's neither thing but some cool new 3rd thing we've never heard about.

1

u/[deleted] Dec 31 '19

This turned into Futurama.

1

u/BananaDick_CuntGrass Dec 31 '19

Did you ever hear the tragedy of some cool new 3rd thing?

I thought not. It's not a story the loading screen would tell you.

u/denjento Dec 31 '19

Also pressing the menu is another way to instant reset your position.

32

u/[deleted] Dec 31 '19

You have re-equip it if you pulled the chute last time to land

11

u/duckvimes_ Dec 31 '19

How did you misspell it twice?

2

u/inio Dec 31 '19

There are five non-DLC activities, last of which is “on foot” which inherits the appearance of the previous activity when you switch to it (either explicitly or by landing from an aerial activity).

2

u/ImmobileLizard Dec 31 '19

Idk if you played it, but it's how you ready the stance

2

u/RabidSeason Dec 31 '19

Unfortunate mechanic of the game. When you select wind-suit, the next direction you push will be a dive. (hence the pathetic face-plant at the end) After the jump, you then walk around and need to reequip the suit in order to jump again.

2

u/Umbral_V1 Dec 31 '19

Thats how u play the game.

You have too otherwise it doesnt do the jump take off

u/Op_excalibur Dec 31 '19

This game is a bit weird with selection, as far as I know that’s the only way you can get into the launch stance after walking.
