Hi Sho
for some reason i cannot find you on the list
add me if you want. Howmuch75
I just tried it out myself, with my friend (who i gave my buddy pass to because they had the same issue) I honestly don't know why I don't show up (i know when you make a buddy pass account, like my friend did, there are #'s next to his name, so it makes it a bit easier to search for him/them, like mike#2345 vs mike# 3245 but when you're a founder you don't get any numbers that show up to the side, just your founders badge, so i have no idea how to make people "search" for me easier) but honestly this is a "google"/stadia problem 100% and i guess i need to try and contact someone about it or make a new forum about it. because that's crazy i'm a founder, if you're putting NOTHING but "Sho" into that search bar I SHOULD be the first name PERIOD like nothing else should even come up, but like you're saying, you type in "Sho" in that search bar and you get ALLLL THE VARIANTS to that name (shooo, shoe, show etc.) but not Sho. That is def crazy, but i will add BOTH of you next time I am on and anyone else shoot me an invite through here and I will add you i guess because yah i have no idea why i don't show up. sorry about that - Sho
Feel free to add me. Same SN as the forum.
I just wanted to add an update to this post. I tried to look you up(@Stoked4Good), spelt the name exactly how you have it but nothing came up at all (even how "@Howmuch75" was saying they couldn't find me but other users at least showed up, literally nothing came up, it said no one found with that name) so idk if you're facing the same problem I am? are you a founder? or what are the numbers next to your name? all my friends (that are not founders) have a number next to their names. example: TheGhost45#6213 that means I can have MULTIPLE friends called "TheGhost45" but when you look them up via the search bar that's what the numbers are there for. So it'd be like TheGhost45#6213 and another user can have the name TheGhost45#6214 just as examples. So,idk but i can't find you at all. also when i play darksiders "A" number shows up next to my stadia name (in the top right corner) but idk if that has anything to do or can help, but maybe instead of just searching for "Sho" try Sho#42628 idk if that will help or change anything but it's worth a shot. I'll be on tonight 10:30PMEST -Sho
@Stoked4Good I tried to add you, but no luck, no users showed up at all. Are you a Founder? I only ask, because maybe you are experiencing the same thing I am? with how @Howmuch75 was saying they could not find me as well,I did try to look myself up as well and they were correct, for whatever reasons I don't show up, BUT other users with similar names at least do, when I tried your name, nothing showed up at all. I also noticed that when I am playing darksiders (on the main menu) in the top right corner, where it shows your name, it does show some numbers, so i don't know if this could help find me but maybe try it? Instead of searching for just "Sho" in the search for users bar, try "Sho#42628" just without the quotations. Idk it's all I can think of. to respond to @Howmuch75 I also tried you, "A" name did at least show up, but are you a founder? because if you are, then you did not show up as well, if you're not a founder, a user name Howmuch75 did show up but it had numbers (atm i don't member what they were) but either way i DID send a request to you, so if that's you, accept it, if not, idk. try searching for me with those numbers. or when you look your name (if you're not a founder) what numbers are next to your name so i can search for you easier that way. - Sho
Hi sho
i’m not a founder.i am using a buddy pass also.
i haven’t got a clue what is going on,my name come up as howmuch75#2479 on my profile...i have used both your tags to no avail...
@Stoked4Good This is why I simply asked if you were a founder as well, because if you are, then you may be experiencing the same thing I am, if you're not a founder then you every well could have just made the same mistake @Howmuch75 made. if you're not a founder, you have numbers next to your name, those are important and that's what i would need to look you up properly.
@Howmuch75 you got the right idea. that's all i needed to know, were the numbers next to your name. I'm going to let you know right now (in case you don't know) Stadia works like blizzard when it comes to usernames. ONLY founders have reserved names aka no one else can take that name. so, example, like my name i'm "Sho" and i have a founder badge next to my name i don't have numbers. my name is locked in and no one else can take that name. your name is NOT locked in aka what that means is you're not the only person on stadia with the username Howmuch75 THAT'S why those numbers next to your name are important, so when someone is looking for you (like what i am trying to do and already did BUT i most likely sent the request to the wrong Howmuch75 user) THERE IS A DIFFERENCE between you (Howmuch75#2479) and another user (Howmuch75#2450) you're both Howmuch75 but what separates you guys is the numbers next to your names. just so you know in the future when adding friends, that's how stadia works. I will try adding you again today, just keep an eye open for a friend request from "Sho" and like i said i should have a founder badge next to my name. (just so you know it's me) i'm on EST time so i should be on later tonight to play some darksiders maybe like 9PM-10PM EST i'm on chapter 6 atm but i don't mind replaying anything or anything like that. so hope to game with you soon! I will add you as soon as i can. -Sho
Really been debating on this game. I absolutely LOVE Diablo, and I am getting those kind of vibes from it. What does everyone think of it?
@BigPete7978 it's a great game, loads of fun and re-playability value for sure (because as you get stronger, like in diablo, you can run back levels at harder difficulties etc) my only gripe with the game (and why this post was made) is you can't just play with random people. which sucks. they have two modes.(for multiplayer) "friends only", "invite only", and "private" friends only means, ANYONE ON YOUR FRIENDS LIST can request to join your game, invite only means only friends you INVITE can join (but they still have to be on your friends list) and private means no one can join, it's just for solo play or local co-op. imo friends only and invite only are the same **bleep** thing and should have just been ONE mode/option. because ultimately you're inviting your friends and then that becomes a "friends only" game. where they f'ed up, is by not adding ANY option to just play ONLINE! so if you don't have friends who have this game, and they aren't on your list (again why i made this post to get some people to play with) then you will sadly be playing this game solo. which isn't all too bad, but i mean OBV the FOCUS on this game is co-op, which is why i have NO IDEA why there wasn't an option to just "join/create" a room that ANYONE can join etc. playing the game solo, isn't bad, it's just, you will notice moments where it's def MEANT for two people. boss battles are a great example, you can be taking on a boss in solo, that will just FOLLOW YOU! and you have to swap between the horsemen (war and strife) when you compare that to playing it with two people, it's def a game changer, because you can have the player who is playing as war stay close to the boss and distract him (take the aggro etc) while whoever is playing strife can just stay back and light him up. when you're playing solo, tactics such as that just don't exist. so it's not "bad" playing the game solo, but it def defeats the entire purpose of this game playing it solo. lol
Awesome. I might check it out this weekend. Thanks for the info @Sho
I’m on most nights if anyone wants a game !
howmuch75#2479
Sho - wow you sure love your lengthy posts, haha. Yes, I'm a founder. Reach out to support if you're still having troubles figuring out your name etc. : )
@Stoked4Good well they range, it is what it is, sometimes you have more to say than other times. not all my posts are huge tho. also i looked you up and finally found you (dragon avatar) again, why it didn't work the first time i have no idea, as i said my name has the same issues and idk it just seems like a stadia issue for sure. because i have added both you and @Howmuch75 and idk if it worked or not. i don't see anything "pending" but i search your names, find it, then click the "add friend" icon right next to your name. it will show a check mark, but then the check mark goes away. so idk. i did send you and @Howmuch75 multiple requests though just to see if any of them would go through.
@Stoked4Good Also I have already done so, and i'm just waiting to hear back from them because i've checked my privacy settings (like some have mentioned) and still nada, i have everything set to "all players" like anyone. i don't have anything set to friends only or private or anything like that. from message requests, to party requests etc it's all on the "anyone" can do it. But i have made a post on this forum and I have contacted support as well. just waiting to hear what they say. Thank you though.
i’ll be on in 5 sho. And yes i got your friend request!
Sho - you're real! Just saw and accepted your friend request. Now I can officially say, the app friend search feature is broken. Way to have a short name enough to force a bug find. We all serve a purpose. ![]()
I told you man
but Trust me I hear you on that, just glad I helped lol (maybe that's why it's taking them so long to answer back to me lol) i've seen other 3 letter names searched for and got found with no problem. I have no idea why my name was so special lol but it def doesn't show up. Just glad I was able to get you both added tho, so hope to play with either of you guys at some point. like i said i'm down for any chapter and i'll play either strife or war i don't have a preference. (atm i'm on chapter 5) but as i said, i don't mind replaying anything, or sitting through cutscenes for you guys (or just anyone that adds to this convo and wants to play etc) Just def want to try this game in co-op the way it's meant to be played, like i said, it's not bad playing solo, it just doesn't feel right.
I should be on (around my usual time) 9:30-10PM EST and i pretty much play all night. sorry I work though and so that's just why night time is pretty much the only time i do have to play, on day offs though, or if you just happen to see me on-line please feel free to send me an invite to play the game etc. I will do the same if i notice you guys on, send one your way, if you can't play no worries, just going to send it, in that just in case chance that you can play. hope to play with you guys soon!
N just PS: for anyone new to this topic, add me, add them (if they are obv ok with it) and just take note you may have to give me your name (like how @Stoked4Good and @Howmuch75 did) just because atm, and until i do hear back from google/stadia. I just can't be found lol so I will have to add you! i'm more than happy to make new friends though, also down to play some destiny 2 (and future games such as ghost recon when it does come out) so if you're just looking for a friend to game with def add me (well give me your name and i'll add you but you know what i mean :p) - Sho
looks like i won’t get a game with you sho as i am on GMT.any europeans on here ?
@Howmuch75 NP man just keep me added we'll def play at some point, and run into each other time wise. I do have day-offs as I mentioned. so it's not like you won't catch me on-line on some days that may work for you. we're just going to have to try n catch each other on-line that's all lol I have a day-off today so I should be on quite a bit. 12/17/2019 we got snowed in today.
@Stoked4Good Hey man i'm trying
i've been actually spacing them out now. so they aren't "as" long. it just looks that way, especially when i'm responding to two people in one post like now. looks like it's long. ![]()
@Stoked4Good also NP on the character or chapters, you're def a lot farther than I am though
but idk mind either way, play chapters i haven't yet gotten to, replay them, i''ll play as strife or war. it's all good for me, just want to try and experience the game (at least once) the way it was meant to be played (co-op) I got a day off today so I should be on quite a bit. hope to play with you fellas soon ![]()
