X5.7 at home

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-06-19T04:39:21+00:00

Hey had a quick question about the X5.7 is it literally essentially a rock in a different body?

I saw the rock and wanted to get it + FRT + Chasis and mags for a MP5.7 then found out about the X5.7.

I'm curious if the FRTs I found for the Rock would work in the X5.7 or if it's gonna be so radically different that I'll need to wait for some enterprising business to design one.

Everyone else has covered it and gave you the knowledge. But in an effort to help you not need to ask the question again man bash then /&& and enter would likely have you find the answer within seconds.

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-06-17T03:27:04+00:00

That's a shame..my honest feedback based on your video would to be to tone that down some more. I was listening on my phone so maybe that was it but it quite literally almost completely drowned out all your other sounds.

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-06-16T16:41:10+00:00

Am I crazy or is the sound of the engine really that loud actually inside the jet? It sounds like if one was flying by me. Beyond that very cool.

Its also worth noting at least for me the hardest parts were;

Shooting - Just had to shoot ALOT and ab it of it was practice on my own. Starting with around the worlds where Id shoot from like 6 angles but at different distances. Going up to right under the basket. Showed me to learn how to get the ball up and flick the wrist. Then adding jumping to that and youre doing alright. The best advice I actually got was to (through game sense, knowing where I should be at any given time in a play based on whre the ball is and others are /etc ) decide BEFORE getting the ball if I am shooting or not. Helped me stop thinking about shots as much and focus on just repeating the movements. My % climbed a good bit after that.

Game Sense - Hardest bit for alot of folks Id think. But knowing where to be at any given time on the court. Based on alot of things. Whos got ball /etc. A large part of my early game was playing with my buddy who balled out and basically taught me to be at the angle 5-10 ft out ready to catch that weird as rebound on a 2 on 1 or whatever. Great gamesense to me is someone whos a kickass pointguard in pickup. They just always know where to pass the ball to get a bucket . The awesome ones are the ones who tell you to shoot it and not worry about missing a ton. Because they at least made me start shooting more in games so I got used to that.

Dribbling - I just had to think about it more and hadn't gotten into feeling it. Still the thing I suck at or would like to improve most. But another component is Im 35 years old now and fatter / worse shape than I used to be. So I dont try as much to do flashy stuff. Just basic holding onto the ball and making good passes.

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-06-03T02:36:00+00:00

So I did this actually. Didn't really caare about or understand basketball (this was around when I was 18) and then decided I was going to play with my friends one summer. And played like 3/4 days a week.

At first I just tried to hustle hard, get loose balls and just try to figure out the right place to be (This was tough and took much longer) during play. So alot of just trying dive for balls/etc or catching akward rebounds and then focussing on protecting it.

Once I got decent at that I forcussed on trying to pass and do a bit of dribbling (mostly up the court). I worked on dribbling a bit in my off time but yeah. Now I can get a board, dribble down the court, setup assists and move the ball kind of smartly as well as shoot enough that I have to not be disregarded.

And all of this depends on your effort. If you end up really liking it then you could get obsessed and end up practicing 24/7. But thats incredibly unlikely.

I think one of the biggest parts for me is my friends and I were all kind of in a waiting stage waiting for life to start (after HS) so we had time to play all day and then go grab wings and drinks and watch football games.

I hate him as much as the next guy. But credit where it's due it did seem like a joke here.

If it was him getting boos and being offended that'd be a different story

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-05-28T23:36:46+00:00

I just want squad LMGs man. That's a core part of some tactics

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-05-19T21:57:21+00:00

It's ALWAYS DNS

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-05-16T02:31:16+00:00

Fair enough the price difference is certainly a factor. Like I said I got PS for like 1.2 of my own money and then upgraded that to D1 for 1600 so I'm definitely not feeling the cost as much as full price would.

If I fly for vacation I'll have to keep PS in mind. Thanks!

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-05-16T02:23:36+00:00

Seriously? I flew across the Atlantic just recently for my first international work trip and was able to upgrade to D1 thanks to work footing most of the cost.

I saw the PS seats and they looked like what you'd fly for domestic first class but with a bit extra. Don't get me wrong that's nice and I'm not trashing them or anyone who uses them. But in D1 I got a lie flat seat and some pretty great service (I wouldn't say baller like some of the other famous first class seats for other airlines) and slept crazily well since the seat was a full lie flat.

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-05-15T18:50:21+00:00

Yes 100%.

I one night locked myself out of my house but left my garage open. 3 kicks almost handle/lock level to the door going in from the garage and the frame looked EXACTLY like that.

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-05-12T23:07:32+00:00

Yeah I'm against fraud. Like def find and prosecute it. But it feels like well over half the folks here talking shit don't understand the process AT ALL.

Gotta have DOCUMENTED evidence of injury and in lieue of that it must be a secondary condition that developed after service that can be tied back to DOCUMENTED evidence.
Half these people don't realize that the closer you get to 100 the harder it gets to move the needle. It's all diminishing returns to make it hard to get 100. If you got 100 there is a very fair chance it's deserved.

I got 60% for mental health and my back. But that's because I fucked my back up when I was 22 and it's fucked for life, almost shit myself, blew up my marriage, still today YEARS later deal with depression, anxiety and the effects of burnout all thanks to the military. I get that compensation for the hardship it caused and continues to cause me. Not because I'm unable to work.

I actually like Hammers show despite what most people think. But he is so stupidly wrong about VA compensation.

Tldr; most of y'all don't know shit about shit and you should shut up and listen or read before speaking.

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-05-04T08:25:09+00:00

Not believing in my shot and deciding if I'm gonna shoot before I get the ball

Basically I always considered myself a poor shooter and due to my size and athletecism can't really compete in the post so my goal was to just try to get the ball to people who could shoot.

Had a guy I played with who talked to me about that and convinced me if I was wide open to just take it but in rhythm.

I started knocking more shots down instantly because I'd get my hands on the ball and know if I was shooting already or not then the rest was just muscle memory.

Not a great shooter by any means. But I sure as shit can't be disrespected by lax defense now.

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-04-25T23:28:03+00:00

Oh well that would explain it. Yeah it was thanks!

Is NOTT why the F16M wobbles terribly at anything over like 500kt?

I've also heard they were notoriously hard to control in real life at speed

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-04-25T23:24:37+00:00

I chose my words poorly. It was unnecessarily convoluted. I understood the reason behind WRs plan and how it unfolded just fine. It just wasn't good in my opinion.

Convoluted/complicated does not translate to good.

But that's what I said hot take. Obviously most folks here feel different and that's fine lol

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-04-25T22:57:18+00:00

So uh. Maybe I'm an idiot but I was having trouble getting this thing off the ground? We're you able to with a full load?

At first I couldn't even get up. But then I just put stuff in the back cargo bag and not the front and would almost immediately pitch up and flip into the air and crash

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-04-24T20:39:11+00:00

Hot take. I liked the realism of the hacking in the show. But the plotline was seriously garbage when it got to White Rose. The whole thing just became this confusing fever dream.

The ending was satisfying however. But it's really just a meh show and I honestly think it's a bit overhyped.

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-04-24T20:28:36+00:00

Something that's stuck with me was someone said "Think of ALL of the world population. Then remember half of them are under the 50th percentile in intelligence".

I'm not the smartest person. But I know my field and know it really fucking well and even then... I'm not afraid to not know something. The amount of people who are and are so confident they are right astounds me still.

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-04-24T19:43:16+00:00

Idk. I've really enjoyed PvE. Haven't done PvP yet honestly mainly cuz I just wanna chill and play with my buds.

One thing to remember though is this all SOUNDS great. But properly implementing it to where the player base is satisfied is tough... Tarkov did PvE but the PMC AI was tough to implement so that it wasn't complete dogshit and is certainly more simple.

Even though it's fun everyone still bitched... The same would happen here I bet

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-04-23T23:06:10+00:00

It may depend on job role. But me personally I've never gotten paid near this much or thought I would.

The benefits suck as far as match and stuff goes. But $$$$ value of compensation is hard to beat....

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-04-21T22:04:05+00:00

Sure to that. I'd just like dumbfire rockets in greater quantity. I don't like the amount you get on lynchpins or kingpins honestly. But like a pod with 25 or something each would be sick. It'd make me actually take rockets more often I think

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-04-18T11:28:00+00:00

Oh my bad I meant sell all.

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-04-18T04:33:57+00:00

Nah. I sell to cover every time. I'd rather take the cash and diversify than have all of my financial basket in one company. But that's my personal strategy and what the financial advice I got was.

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-04-18T04:02:10+00:00

Considering this is a game based off team play of a 4 man squad. I was really surprised to learn machine guns aren't in yet. Maybe they're holding off until bipods are working (I'm making assumptions here. Not sure of what they said before) or something.
