    On apps like Xbox and Curseforge, this weird thing happens where the app appears to freeze over. Sometimes parts of it go away if I hover over them or interact around them, but they come back. It doesn't have the effect when I open the apps so I would assume it isn't an issue with either app in particular.

    Idk if this image link works but my screenshots won't load when I paste them so I just posted in discord and copied image link.

    Hello Adam Richards2,

    We appreciate you for sharing this to us and welcome to Xbox Forums.

    Based on the information provided, the frosted over effect that you are experiencing on certain apps like Xbox and Curseforge is most likely caused by a graphics driver issue. Here are some steps that you can take to resolve this issue:



    1. Update your graphics driver: Go to the website of your graphics card manufacturer and download the latest driver for your graphics card. Install the driver and restart your computer.



    2. Reset the app: Right-click on the app that is experiencing the issue and select "App settings". Scroll down and click on "Reset". This will reset the app to its default settings and may resolve the issue.



    3. Check for Windows updates: Make sure that your Windows operating system is up to date. Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update and click on "Check for updates". Install any available updates and restart your computer.

    If the issue persists after trying these steps, you may need to contact the app developer or Microsoft Support for further assistance. Also, provide us the following information:

    1. Was this working before?
    2. Since when was the issue start?
    3. Are there any changes applied on your system?

    I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

    Kind regards,

    BOOSTING NEEDS TO STOP! Please help the fight.

    [quote user="ChainSmokingBob"]

    Boosters really aren't a problem to anyone if they aren't trying to win. While I don't respect it and I do think you should stop doing it, I don't really care provided they aren't winning and aren't interfering with my game.

    WTH? They effect any game mode they are in and every player in that game. Please explain how someone dying over and over again or getting a free kill over and over again does not effect ffa, tdm, dom, etc.

    Trying mage character again

    You know, when I started I used only fire because it does deal a lot of damage and lingers. One reason was the Nords issue but I find that even Nords will go down pretty fast under a blizzard of ice spikes and frost. I believe that is because they are only
    resisting the frost but not the hit to their stamina. I know a lot of users like shock and in previous TES games shock was my favorite effect but I don't think it has the stopping power that the other two do and as an unarmored (until recently) mage, I don't
    want anyone getting anywhere close to me.

    Hit detection

    How long does the suppression effect last? I have noticed that after a person stops firing or is killed that for a few seconds I am still fuzzy. Also I don't use the anti suppression squad perk much. Does this have an effect and how much does it suppress
    the suppression?
