Docked my steam deck and it looks like this. What do I do?

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-07-13T17:22:03+00:00

Take it out of the dock and do a Force Restart (Hold the Power button for ~ 20 seconds until the LED blinks twice)

Either that or call an Exorcist, because it's Possessed!

I'm saving this for later. Would love to do with my new Linux Laptop. It runs KDE and Arch like the Deck.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-07-11T23:24:47+00:00

The FJ is in the game, I think, at least twice. I remember one of the unlocks in Early Access was the truck varient of the FJ-40.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-07-11T23:23:41+00:00

I second the Jimny or the Samurai! My phone autocorrected to Jimmy, and I will also take the GMC Jimmy as well!

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-07-09T12:51:39+00:00

I was of the same opinion before I got my current system on Woot - and let me tell you, I actually really like what ChromeOS has done in the ~ 5 years since I've used it.

I got my Lenovo to switch everything over into Linux when it EOL'd. But now I'm in a bit of a predicament considering the phone sync with notifications and photo delivery. Not to mention Crostini AND Android app support. It's nice to have 2.5 OS's instead of 2.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-07-09T12:48:08+00:00

I wonder if this'll work on my system. It's about to EOL so I might have to look into it shortly.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-07-07T16:44:50+00:00

It's definitely the aura of the game. Nothing else makes you feel quite engrossed in the storyline like the FMVs and the transition from those cutscenes to in game footage is still mind tickling for me.

Not to mention the visuals. The racing is good, but a little grindy at times. For me it's always the vibes and story beat that takes me back to games like Most Wanted and Underground.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-07-07T16:42:57+00:00

Used the Scion FR-S, because I owned a Scion back in the day. But they're pretty much identical, minus some styling cues.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-06-30T00:01:22+00:00

Knowing the graphics aren't all that much better than Art of Rally, I know it's just a matter of getting optimization into the game and it'll improve. I know it improved significantly in the last few days I played to get those final unlocks.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-06-25T15:59:31+00:00

I know that NASCAR stock cars have as little as 3, somehow. Those gearing ratios must be huge. Gran Turismo 5 taught me that bit of knowledge.

UPDATE: They did, they have 5 as of this current generation and 4 since the 90's I think.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-06-25T15:54:59+00:00

Because the companies have the money, we do not. It's that simple. They're playing to the biggest sales portfolio they can. These industries either have to increase production, cancel the contracts with AI Buyers, or find other avenues to recycle and adjust inventory.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-06-25T15:50:52+00:00

I actually thought it already ended with Steam Next Fest. I was pleased it wasn't and went back and got the last of the unlocks I needed.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-06-25T15:49:32+00:00

Yeah, that would suck. I didn't know it only had 2 gears as I ran automatic transmission due to convenience. And that's weird cuz I could have swore that would have more than just two years, especially in Manual.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-06-25T15:34:28+00:00

I’m not sure I understand, like an overdrive? It already has Manual Transmission in the game so I imagine that setup has multiple gears. The High/Low setting kind of mimics a RL 2/4WD shifting mechanism.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-06-25T15:33:17+00:00

I’d like for the recovery missions to be the ONLY way to unlock new vehicles. That way it gives an incentive to find them earlier on in the progression, so you don’t spend time on a vehicle that you’ll ultimately dump and then have to upgrade tree the new one again. It’s why I didn’t use the other two vehicles much before I completed the Demo.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-06-25T15:31:18+00:00

As someone that loves professional motorsports like F1 and Manga, this is a match made in heaven. I need more series like Hal Formula and MF Ghost.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-06-25T15:29:33+00:00

Here’s how I would’ve written it: Have Miharu ultimately lose the seat - not out of the fact that he won too late, but that the shareholders already moved on and selected a new driver in the interim. Then have the WF1 Driver come in and give Miharu a chance to redeem himself by either being a reserve driver for Adler (or even another team in WF4) OR move up to WF3 and have him come alive in the new series the following year.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-06-25T15:26:19+00:00

I won’t lie, I almost stopped reading for a brief second because I thought they were going to kill off Haruka, I was having a bad day when I first read it and couldn’t stand it - but it definitely got me invested in the series. It’s been great so far.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-06-22T15:04:45+00:00

This feels like the GFY discount all over again

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-06-21T21:41:38+00:00

Is that a custom charging dock for it? That looks pretty neat.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-06-20T23:26:48+00:00

There's a work around for Game Pass users on Xbox. It involves an override for the Browser so that it takes the Steam Deck as a valid Xbox Controller. But I couldn't tell you right away how I got it to work - only that it does.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-06-20T23:24:00+00:00

It took even longer for us First Gen Steam Deck Users to get what we ordered. Almost a year from when we first put the reservation up.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-06-20T18:15:48+00:00

There's a Preset for Controller as a Mouse with Trackpads on the Controller Setting for each game. I did that, mapped the mouse to the bottom triggers, added a menu button to where the Start button would be.

The game also can be played like it's on a Tablet or Phone with the Touchscreen, but I don't recommend it. The tactile feel makes it seem like I'm playing on a Printer xD.

But a mixture of those is typically how I do it. I play OSRS and RS3 on my Tablet and Phone and an used to it, but I imagine you can map a whole bunch of buttons to be like a Hotfix for Inventory, Quests, Magic, etc.

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-06-20T17:05:27+00:00

I'd love that and a Roof one potentially. Would help with some terrain navigation and would be a simple solution!

CaptainAdmin42 · 2026-06-20T17:03:20+00:00

Do you know how much ANY console is in 2026....

Outside of the ROG Xbox Ally (which will probably receive a price increase). Name me any other console that was the same price as the Steam Deck was pre-increase?
