My favorite part of this update is that the seatbelt ding doesn't mute everything. Thank you God.

Halloween easter eggs are bonus features. These are free bonuses. These are not advertised standard features. You got the vehicle you paid for. Rivian does not owe you Halloween or any other bonus features.
This is pretty much what goes through my head every time I see (not bug-related) complaints about a Halloween mode. Unlike virtually everything else in the vehicle it’s an optional bonus: We should enjoy the parts of it we like or simply not use it.

What really bugs me about this post is that even without someone searching first, it could’ve been handled better. If OP started with questions (e.g. Why didn’t we get any special sounds this year? Am I missing something?) rather than a rant I bet the responses would’ve been almost exclusively helpful: more about the topic and less about how the topic was presented.

For those who are having trouble finding it, like I did:

I may be joining Team Crow, my neighborhood crows have saved my chickens more than once!

@Riviot thanks for showing that, I guess I deserved all the hate here for expressing my disappointment. Oh well, the world is full of hate, what is new. I thought we can have a healthy conversation but I guess I strike a nerve. We’re not even talking about politics.
I guess you all live a very happy and comfortable lives and there is no room for complaints. Reminds me of Jesus asking who wants to cast the first stone.
But I do appreciate those who simply say, “I disagree, I really enjoy this year’s Halloween mode. Let me show you how it’s done!”
Well, next time your employee or your kid or friend came up to you to complain, think for a second before you throw all that hate
at them because they seem to not appreciate as much as you do.
Peace ✌?

Its brutal.

This place was such a great resource, and a great place to learn.

Now it's a bunch of people who are entitled and lazy. Sad.
Don't let a few bad apples ruin the.....

Should I invite strangers and neighbors to show off what’s happening on my monitor? No! I just want the owl hoot back
This part continues to be so funny to me.

My only "disappointment" is the apparent lack of a flux capacitor in the Time Machine (or did I miss that?)

On the Trunk or Treat setting the front green bar acts the same, but prior is correct that there is only white and green on gen 1.
At least the green strip light on the rear works in trunk or treat mode. Good use of that which was a first for me in my Gen 1

Oh you’re so persecuted because you couldn’t bother to find out the answer to your question before complaining. Poor you. Instead of asking us to be nicer maybe next time figure out if your complaint is justified to make or just whining BEFORE opening your mouth.

The reception you received was 100% your doing, you earned the grief tossed your way when you whined about something and were wrong. Now you’re trying to play the poor me victim card instead of acknowledging your mistake, eating that piece of humble pie and moving on.

This victim complex thing is really immature and unhealthy and you should stop it. I mean goddamn you just compared yourself to Jesus.
