are you sure? That's werid cause I haven't seen anyone else having this problem. I haven't tried Co-Op splitscreen myself yet though.

Oh yeah, I'm sure. What happened is I signed in and loaded the game. While it was loading my friend signed into his account, so when the game loaded he had control. I opened the guide and closed it again to re-gain control of the game, and at that point my save was wiped out. Not my game saves, like my progress, but just my kill count and progress towards the achievements. I beat the game today but didn't get the achievements, I just got the "does this look infected?" achievement. Also, if I try to load a chapter I can only choose from acts 1,5 and 6. Weird stuff, but I'm just gonna play through again on insane and get 300 points for it.

edit: I take that back, I can't play on insane. It's still locked, even though I beat the game today. Annoying...

maybe look through the select chapter screen to see if it says you've finished all of them... don't know about the kill count problem though that seems ridiculous, i wouldnt want to start on my 6k kills again

I just went through campaign co-op without getting the achievement. We both changed our difficulty part way through so that may be why.

Same here I cant kill the reaver to your left in the time before it kills you, even though I am using a turret. Quite sure that you can only do it with co-op.
I did it on my own. I aimed for the body of the reaver and cooled down only when I need to. Single player insane is definitely not impossible.

I was playing near the end of the campaign (attack on Jacinto) and was at that part where there are Gears on two sides of a street shooting down. After you kill everybody you are supposed to go across the bridge to defend the ComArray. Well as the bridge was coming to me I rolled forward to get moving and I fell down to the first level of the street accidentally. So I wondered around a bit to where you fight those Brumaks and here is what I saw

I bet that was a ton of fun.

It's too bad most people you meet on matchmaking don't know you have to use teamwork and pick a good spot in order to be successful.

I heard my boss get cussed out by his boss, and my boss cuss back, and I went into work today and it was like nothing happened.

Is that anything important you found? (Not trying to sound rude, honest question.)

No, I restarted to the last checkpoint after taking that picture. I just thought it was a funny incident. I'm not one to intentionally try to glitch something to figure hidden things.

Spooky and I got up to mid-way through the 4th Act last night (me on Insane, him on Hardcore). The bit in the tank sequence when you have to destroy the tower was ****ing difficult, we spent like 40 minutes on it lol. Everything else is pretty easy when you get used to the AI, but Insane must be just about impossible by yourself...

      Exactly. They won't go 100 because current gen consoles are simply too old for any groundbreaking graphics or gaming experience otherwise. They will go with standard (console) price 70 or go with 80 if they really want to go premium. Of course they will have more expensive options too with some useless cosmetics as always.

      Doesn’t surprise me at all. God is light & He gave us life so it sounds almost logical that we would therefore emit a certain amount of light.

    • Motrix Next 3.9.6

      By Copernic · Posted

      Motrix Next 3.9.6 by Razvan Serea Motrix Next is a modern, open-source cross-platform download manager built as the official next-generation successor to the original Motrix project. It has been completely rewritten using Tauri 2, Vue 3, TypeScript, and Rust, while still relying on the powerful Aria2 download engine for high-speed multi-protocol transfers. The app supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, BitTorrent, ED2K and magnet links, offering advanced features like multi-connection acceleration, task scheduling, bandwidth control, and batch download management. With a significantly reduced install size (around 20MB), it focuses on being lightweight, fast, and resource-efficient compared to traditional Electron-based download tools. Designed for Windows, macOS, and Linux, Motrix Next delivers a clean, modern UI inspired by Material Design 3 principles, with smooth animations and a minimal workflow. It improves usability through better download organization, system tray integration, and enhanced torrent handling including selective file downloads and tracker management. Motrix Next features: Multi-protocol downloads — HTTP, FTP, BitTorrent, Magnet, .torrent, ED2K, and Metalink tasks BitTorrent — Selective file download, DHT, peer exchange, encryption controls, metadata caching, GeoIP peer flags, and tracker probing Browser extension integration — Embedded Extension API with independent authentication, download confirmation, smart auto-submit, filename hints, referer/cookie forwarding, and real-time controls (Chrome Web Store · Edge Add-ons) Safe filename handling — Content-Disposition, RFC 2047, non-UTF-8, percent-encoded, and extensionless URL resolution with path traversal sanitization Download organization — Favorite and recent folders, optional file-type categorization, stale-record cleanup, and completed history backed by SQLite Concurrent downloads — Independent controls for active tasks, HTTP connections per server, segments per file, and BT peer limits Speed control — Global and per-task upload/download limits with day-of-week and time-of-day scheduling System integration — Tray operation, optional tray speed display, macOS Dock badge/progress, protocol handlers for magnet://, thunder://, and motrixnext:// Lightweight mode — Destroys the WebView on minimize-to-tray while Rust keeps the engine, task monitor, notifications, history, and extension routing alive Notifications and power options — Native task start/complete/failure notifications, keep-awake during downloads, and optional shutdown after completion Network controls — Scoped proxy support for downloads, app updates, and tracker updates, plus system proxy detection Auto-update channels — Stable, Beta, and Latest Across Channels policies with separate download and install phases Diagnostics — Structured logs, exportable diagnostic ZIPs, database integrity checks, automatic DB rebuild, and Linux GPU rendering fallback Personalization — Light/dark/system theme, 10 color schemes, 26 languages, and first-launch system language detection Motrix Next 3.9.6 changelog: New Features Clipboard management — App-owned copy actions no longer trigger the Add Task auto-detect popup. aria2 input compatibility — Multi-line aria2-style task input is supported for URLs with per-task options such as out=. BitTorrent IPv6 DHT — Added IPv6 DHT support and related configuration. File category URL patterns — File category rules can match URL patterns with validation and localized hints. Task status tags — Added clearer waiting and sharing states for task cards. Download event bridge — Added an aria2 WebSocket event bridge for faster download notifications. Improvements Improved task list transitions and preserved task state during tab switches. Kept RPC origin access enabled for local integrations. Restored AppImage stripping in release builds after beta validation. Added localized preference guidance across supported languages.
