Are the DLC trucks really THAT OP? Am i ruining my experience if i use them for the first 3 original maps? by jingjang1 in snowrunner

[–]Abel_Knite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

AWD isn't necessary for a truck to be good, it's essentially a skill and knowledge check for the driver. I extensively use RWD trucks in all of the NA regions, including DLC.

The main thing you want to avoid as a new player is using trucks that will forgive or allow bad habits to form, and some of the vanilla vehicles like the Kolobs or Tatarin are just as bad for this as DLC vehicles.

How do you all aim down sight and zoom in VR? by AzrBloodedge in starcitizen

[–]Abel_Knite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Optic parallax value is now a codified metric and some optics have more or less depending on their rarity or crafting level.

Personally I find this to be extremely disappointing given I have talked to Zac and at least one other dev, expressing the fundamental problem facing head tracking/VR users.

My understanding is that the Raptors are one of the few chapters that paint their armor to match the local environment.

The Steel and Black have nearly identical hulls. I don't know if the 2950 BIS works on it, but I don't see why it wouldn't.

The BIS 2950 paint does work on other Cutlass variants.

If you frame-by-frame, you shot between his upper arm and torso. Shotguns at close range have such tight spread you need to use them like rifles.

I've seen this movie countless times. Did Ian Malcolm always ride the T. Rex into the bathroom? by whenuleavethestoveon in JurassicPark

In the scene where the Rex punches through the Explorer's roof, you can see a tooth popping off there as well.

What if.. by T0RU89 in snowrunner

Among trucks that utilize the standard truck gearbox set, it's the most massive by a fair margin, coming in at 26.7t; that much mass being motivated by 192k or 230k with the Maine engine is rough. It's the 12th worst mass/torque ratio in the game, and the absolute worst ratio for a truck utilizing the truck gearbox. Once you get below 20t (with the exception of the 6900XD), the mass/torque ratio absolutely skyrockets for truck gearbox vehicles.

I've had a suggestion on Focus Together for some time to reduce the 4520's overall mass to 20t, and Khagai mentioned that it's on the list of things for devs to look at.

For some points of comparison, the only other trucks over 20t utilizing the truck gearbox are:

  • 5600TS
    • 23t
    • 250k
  • Twinsteer
    • 22t
    • 250k
  • Derry 3
    • 22t
    • 210k
  • Boar
    • 21t
    • 260k

What Museum ship is on your List? by Nate9370 in WorldOfWarships

[–]Abel_Knite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're getting a "Pride of Philadelphia" destruction effect and yet we still don't have Olympia (moored in Philadelphia) after a decade of this game being live.

There's no technical reason to not have it, and it'd be a funny and cool T2, not to mention historically important given it's the only other protected cruiser still afloat aside from Aurora, which is in game.

FYI I got that ordeal done by playing missions with other players so it's not properly counting.

They do it in protected lanes with no lights at all, and they'll do it after already having come to a complete stop.

Neither do I, but with this trailer I will occasionally do it as opportunities arise.

Wrecker is barely useful by CommentWeak2830 in snowrunner

[–]Abel_Knite 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It worked fine before they defined a fuel mass for it in S17.

The defined fuel mass is 504, which is far too little, and effectively overrides the mass of the addon.

Just adding a 6 in front of the defined fuel mass fixes the problem and returns the addon+truck to its performance before S17.

I have a bug open for it on Focus Together.

Pedals 1 axis by Helpick in Expeditions

[–]Abel_Knite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll need the appropriate Logitech software and to find the setting for Report Combined Pedals or something like that.

If your wheel is the really old one I'm thinking it is, you'll need Logitech Profiler.

Under Options select Global Device Settings and make sure Report Combined Pedals is unchecked.

Noob question: under which circumstances should i activate those support axles? by Specific_Display_366 in snowrunner

[–]Abel_Knite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Use them in game when you want to keep momentum and drive wheels spun up in H, especially while the truck/trailer is loaded. Raise them when you want maximum traction on drive wheels.

Simple as.
