My game starts booting and then immediately backs out and asks me how I want to share the app

I assume and hope this is just how a galaxy S5 deals with apps that aren't out yet

Pretty sure that's the "phone is rooted or developer options are on" behaviour on Samsung devices; I had the same thing on the Note 5 until I turned developer options off, after that it showed an in-game message saying "we're not ready yet".

I turned dev options off (they must be on by default) and now I'm getting the correct error message, thanks

I can't avoid filling a game with awful memes, even if I want to. It's in my bones...!

FGO rates are actually good for getting characters you want, as you want them since it's apparently around .6% for an SSR on rate-up regardless of roster size and there are no other rolls to screw over their stats. Something like GBF, even with 6% rates on rate-ups, gives you .2%.

Yeah, I actually sort of want to try and find the :effort: to do a write-up on why Fuggo's gacha is actually one of the more generous ones in the market, and why that's something of a driver in the game being as successful as it is. The TLDR is this: the super-extra-rare chase waifus are very hard to get, and that's how they "get you", but the gacha's liability rate is actually shockingly low compared to its contemporaries. If you can live with not having your most precious waifu (at least immediately), the gacha will actually give you a lot of things to be satisfied with. That "1% 5* servant" thing is deceptive and only a small part of the equation.

FGO seems like it is helped tremendously by non-5*s actually being worthwhile instead of things you just throw in the drat trash.

Well, after playing as part of the JP launch, only to drop out after the emulator ban hit, I'll at least give it a shot again. Somewhat interested to see what all the QoL enhancements afterwards were about too.

Here's hoping I can have as much luck this time around as before. Hopefully can get Caster Tamamo and Scathach again when they release, though I'd like to pick up Jeanne this time as well. Alter of course released well after I was gone, though she's another highlight to pick up eventually.

GBF Legfest is better for rate-up non limiteds, but worse for limiteds, as the rate is up is about .7% vs .35% out of a 6% overall SSR rate.

On the other hand, GBF also has surprise tickets (ticket any non-limited SSR you want for ~$25 USD). And if you save long enough you can grab almost anything you want thanks to the spark system.

GBF's gacha does have more chaff in it, but all SSRs are usable for something, either for getting duplicate currency or breaking them down for mats for other things. Generally it's about a 2:1 character to summon ratio in SSRs; all SSR weapons you can draw from the gacha come with a character at this time. Plenty of SRs are useable too (although there are non-character SR weapons, and SR summons are pretty much all garbage)

The real problem with 1% rates as it leads to high variance; not that 6% is much better, but I already routinely draw below 6% in gbf gacha, so I don't want to imagine trying to draw what I want in FGO gacha.

Can also shortcut it if you have two devices, two emulator instances or an emulator and a device. You'd generate a bind code on one of them, enter it on the other and then try to access the first one again. Suddenly it removes your data without requiring you to re-download the entire game. If you want to save the bind code for somebody else though you'd have to generate it again on the second device and copy that down.

Tired Moritz posted:

ooooooh, does this really work? I'm so down with this.

Apparently the answer is no now. They must've changed the japanese version and thus likely the NA version to re-download the entire game now so wouldn't save any time.

When rerolling for PAD at the start I remember I just had to delete the local content, is it the same for Grand Order or do I need to delete the entire app and re-download it?

Do you mean CE? "Cause if so, Volumm Mercury (the Kayneth CE) makes him even more survivable, imaginary around (the ce of sakura in japanese clothing) increases his stargen and makes his np do more damage, and Young Maiden Ignorant of Love (the sola-ui in a dress CE) makes him able to pop his NP more and also increases his np damage and stargen.

gently caress yeah. Got Hercules and d'Eon from my initial pull.

Also got Medea, Kiyohime, and Ushiwakamaru.

Glad I don't feel the need to reroll. Do need to decide who I want from the actual selector, though.

EDIT: hahah, if the party setup tutorial afterward is any indication, d'Eon was my intended 4* and Herc just pure loving luck :allears:
