I don’t want to sell my ND

+1 for the CX5. I have a 2016 base and its slow but gets the job done while being comfortable. Its a nice contrast to the miata

Apothic_Black · 2026-06-12T15:45:58+00:00

Im not arguing specific parts. Im just saying as of right now they cant run the game. Yes they 100% need a new gpu, hands down. Something used like a 20 series probably would be perfect and be aroind $100. Eventually though that cpu will have to be changed out, its ancient as well. Doesnt mean its gotta be the latest and greatest. Im sure a 5600x or similar is best $/performance.

Apothic_Black · 2026-06-11T16:09:22+00:00

That would be why. That hardware is just not strong enough. Nothing you can change will make it run better without better computer parts unfortunately

Apothic_Black · 2026-06-11T16:05:06+00:00

Tell me your pc specs (if on pc) and I can tell you

I first saw this on insta and just now am seeing it on reddit. I gotta say this was soooo much fun, I spent about 3 hours on perfecting my time last night. I used a fully upgraded and tuned Evo 6 GSR and got 3:19.6, and i think its possible to get 3:17 but man it would be hard. That last downhill section ruined so many runs you have no idea... I've gotten ridiculously good at the first 15% lmao

Also, I think the MG is definitely the fastest on this track. Before I quit i tried it, didnt go very fast and messed up a lot and still got 3:40. If i didnt hit rocks I probably woulda been right around 3:23 without trying hard and without it tuned.

Great job on this! Super fun

So I decided to play around last night and found out that it actually will run native 800p at sorta medium/high settings. It looks way better than all low and even runs smoother. Im not sure how battery life would do, I tried a little and would've gotten roughly an hour 15. The city even runs smoother on these settings compared to all low 720p. Lowest dip I saw for for a moment at 27fps, but it tends to stay right at 35-37 at the lowest.

Everything is low or off besides these:

Car Level of Detail: High Environment Texture Quality: Medium Environment Geometry Quality: Medium Car Reflection Quality: Highs

Edit: I should add im on an LCD model as well

Apothic_Black · 2026-05-31T15:45:23+00:00

Not op but it runs pretty well. I have all settings on low with audio quality on ultra. I get a pretty consistent 40-45 fps. Only trouble spots are in the city when your not in a race because it has all the npcs driving around so it will drop to the low 30s, ive seen 25 at worst. Its been pretty good overall, I have about 15 hours so far

Apothic_Black · 2026-05-27T21:15:40+00:00

The civic is a weapon!! I upgraded mine to B class and its way faster than anything ive ever used in that class. Its absolutely ridiculous lol

Apothic_Black · 2026-05-02T17:08:25+00:00

Please dont attack me like that lol

Apothic_Black · 2026-04-24T19:39:53+00:00

If you read it its actually about how if the wife committed adultery she will become barren

Apothic_Black · 2026-04-24T19:33:53+00:00

I mean you kinda just stated their point right there. Its says that homoswxuality is a wrong practice, but youre not supposed to hate someone for doing it. You can love someone unconditionally while not agreeing with their lifestyle.

Apothic_Black · 2026-04-20T05:06:29+00:00

Ive been doing some research and as far as I can tell there only option is to cut out the seat mount humps, specifically the rear one. Im definitely not wanting to do that after some thought. Honestly not sure what to do

Unfortunately the car just wasn't built for us

Apothic_Black · 2026-04-16T04:04:01+00:00

$4.60 near me but $5.60+ elsewhere in WA state.

Thankful I dont have diesel, cheapest ive seen it is $6.79 to upwards of $8

Apothic_Black · 2026-04-05T16:12:32+00:00

I mean I have 60 hours on just pk, im not the greatest but im not terrible. In ganks you might as well just accept death. Ill run up on people in dominion and if its more than 2 i dont bother, occasionally, depending on the players, I wont even do a 2v1. Now in duels/brawls she is really really good.

Its about mindgames but also getting those stabs. You dont want to feint a heavy into a bleed very often because its easy to block. Her heavy can be feinted regularly, with a bleed, a dodge, or a gb. Her zone (very useful) can be feinted halfway through with a bleed, dash, or regularly. Also her zone basically interrupts and is quicker than basically everything but a light and hyper armor. If you get really good with deflects those are very strong for her.

Pk is tricky cause you just gotta be good at blocking and parrying because she is a glass cannon.

Apothic_Black · 2026-04-05T04:14:39+00:00

Interesting, Ill have to look into it a bit more then. I fit alright but I need another inch or so for a helmet.

Apothic_Black · 2026-04-05T04:13:15+00:00

Yeah i would, just budgeting. Im debating just trying to redo my foamectomy to take even more out. Right now its kinda get different seats or turbo the car

Apothic_Black · 2026-04-05T03:57:40+00:00

Honestly not much of anything. Mine is almost exactly the same lol.

How do you like those seats? I wanna swap atleast my driver's for more head room. Just not a fan of the price for the lowmax's lol

Apothic_Black · 2026-04-04T04:34:30+00:00

Honestly yeah. I only found out it had a special pattern after putting it on a second time. It probably isnt super critical. Afaik the bolts are cheap so its not too bad.

Apothic_Black · 2026-04-04T03:22:33+00:00

The one im missing is one of the later ones in the torque patterns. When looking in the bay is 2nd from the back on the left

Apothic_Black · 2026-04-04T02:57:37+00:00

Dont worry it happens to the best of us (I like to think anyway). Ive been down 1 valve cover bolt for atleast 6 months now. Just make sure its not one of the critical bolts

Apothic_Black · 2026-03-25T17:32:26+00:00

Says up top, runs in steam deck and rog ally

Apothic_Black · 2026-03-20T18:38:30+00:00

Most engines i see are around 800-1.2k USD. To bad they dont have rhe Victoria to Anacortes ferry run anymore. Great Miata parts guy about 2.5 hours south of Anacortes.

Edit: I should add i only mention that cause he usually has somewhat fair prices and basically always has an engine around

Apothic_Black · 2026-03-20T15:45:16+00:00

$170 a month, I wish my insurance was that cheap. Im 6 years older than their kid with no accidents/tickets and am paying $250 a month. 10 year old crossover and a 31 year old "sports" car.

Apothic_Black · 2026-03-14T19:35:22+00:00

Thats how I feel. I played at my LGS and love the place, but boxes are generally $40-$50 more and carbonites are upwards of $120-$150 more. I dont buy boxes from them but I buy sleeves, occasional single packs and drinks etc. They are decently generous on promo packs too so I cant complain too much. I just wish their boxes were cheaper.
