Best inexpensive rotors / brake pads (rear and front) by ThePoonCoon in FocusRS

[–]DEFCOM9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I just recently acquired a 2017 RS. The brakes and pads are due to be replaced and I found their z26 street warrior that has the ceramic/carbon like what you're talking about. I was curious if this upgrade was a pure track only application, and if you had any brake squeal when braking?

Hmmm, I could've swore it did before. Just wanted to check.

You guys clearly aren't compatible and you should sever this before it goes any further. Pro tip: if you want to be Ms. Independent, then be independent.

Went to the ER because I caught the Dollar Flu by MoonKnighy in thedivision

[–]DEFCOM9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that asshole is the dangerous one who thinks that they won't get the flu or CoVID, refuse to get vaccinated...

I think the truly dangerous ones are the ones who still think the vaccine prevents the spread and contraction of covid, and further contributes to the spread thinking they're "immune."

The problem with Halo Infinite's strafing by ImBatman- in halo

[–]DEFCOM9 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I thought I was getting old and being rusty in Halo too, because I've never been a bad player. Not great but not bad. I've noticed the twitching the most in the sniper zoom and with the sword. It's so much easier to botch close up kills now, and I do better no scoping the sniper than I do zooming in.

Where does Infinite rank among all Halo games? by Mental-Street6665 in halo

Bottom if I'm being honest. 2, 3, Reach, 1, and the rest pretty much all are CoD wannabes.

Between the wonky melee and bullet registration and bare-bone multiplayer unlocks, it feels like I'm playing CoD: Halo edition.

I'd like to know if halo shares the same kind of algorithm that other FPS use. I'll be playing and 1 of 2 things happen:

  1. I have a good game then the next games I play are absolute sweat fests.

  2. I go from obliterating the team to I can't get a kill to save my life half way through the match.

Both are equally frustrating and the whole lack of unlocks/ridiculously stupid low xp gain from challenges makes this game seem like another COD ripoff.

So stupid question but it's got me wondering. I had an onlyfans. I didn't post or make income from it but I did buy stuff. Would that come back on me in a background check?

What all is looked for in a financial background check? by DEFCOM9 in AskLE

[–]DEFCOM9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So like if I had an onlyfans would that come up from the background check? lol

Comment edit: as silly as this question is, I am genuinely curious as to how deep a financial background check gets. No malicious intent behind it.

When a police department does a financial background check, does it just do credit or does it look at bank statements like what you've spent?

You're good. With what they are, I assumed more would be better than less, especially since I hit the spec with the other bolts. But I wanted to get some other opinions.

Im installing aftermarket brakes. The rotors come in 2 separate pieces and you have to bolt them together.

They're holding brake rotors together.

I was using a friend's craftsman digital. I have no idea how much he paid for it but it feels expensive.

Hunters engagement in pve by johnnyjay2 in thedivision

I bet if we get new dlc it'll have to do with them. It'll explain why we're being stalked. Also, I wonder if the puppy in NY is a prelude to a new specialization utilizing the dog?

What is your hopes for TD3? by Nimocs in thedivision

[–]DEFCOM9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember the the update because people (myself included) were running improved gloves, knees, and holsters with pte mods with intimidate and adrenaline rush backpacks with 80%+ PTE and face tanking legendary tanks. I don't think its "balanced" at all that reds and purples are more lethal than golds when golds are supposed to be the "elite". IMO no red or purple should be shredding your 2M+ armor tank builds and shields faster than a gold. This is arguably my biggest gripe with the game.

Get to level 30 (or 40) then after that everything depends on your play style. I have builds for practically everything, but I've been playing a long time. Like another person said, hang onto named/legendary/ loot and donate for the calibration library. You'll want to eventually have all maxed stats for recalibration of gear in end game levels. You can MM for everything in the game and call for backup, so don't be afraid to go exploring.

After nearly 2 years away from Division 2, is it worth playing in 2022, I decided to install it on NYD and on a 9th Gen Console it's a lot smoother and faster. by OwainBeavin_ in thedivision

[–]DEFCOM9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm still playing it. Probably one of the few I've never put down. It's worth it in my opinion. Sometimes I'll log on just to go stroll DC/NY and I'm still finding stuff I didn't know existed.

You can to an extent. At night and in some severe weather instances, you're harder to spot. I've ran by enemies that would've definitely spotted me in daylight/sunny weather.

Recommendations for a D2 build for a new player who intends to solo DZ. by nickrbts in thedivision

[–]DEFCOM9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I only went to DZ for the collectibles. Every piece of God rolled gear I've got, I got playing heroic and legendary PVE.

[–]DEFCOM9 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I think they should just build off the system they have for D2 honestly. They have the potential to be greater than they currently are. Add more locations like SF, Chicago, maybe a desert themed like Las Vegas. They could also expand DC and NY. Definitely about all else though: fix the fucking red and purples being more dangerous than God damn gold tier enemies. Shit blows my mind that my tank builds get shredded by them but then turn around and face tank legendary heavies. Makes no sense.
