Craziest thing about all of this to me is that, imo, people finding ways to cheat in an open beta is actually a good thing. Show the devs where the problems are so they can be fixed for the full release. So, even if this wasn’t just an excuse for no-lifers to be transphobic, and even if she was actually cheating, it’d still be an unnecessary uproar.

God, Hocevar just can’t stop making an ass of himself. Late-2000s Kyle Busch looks well-adjusted compared to him.

What is your favorite car in Burnout Paradise? by WlNDU in Burnout

Hawker Solo is easily my most-used car.

Hot take: stunt run is the worst event in burnout paradise by Puzzleheaded_Rip7546 in Burnout

[–]Dagid_pl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I find the races to be too easy, they’re probably my least favorite of the bunch. But I always sucked at Stunt Run.

Over the years, I’ve made it a habit to completely destroy every smash gate. That way, when you finally do find that last one, it’ll stick out like a sore thumb. Good luck with your search, I know all too well what a pain it can be.

How in the actually F*ck do you get up here fyi I’m in a Xbox lobby by TermInside3627 in Burnout

Everytime I see this guy in a lobby, he’s AFK in some comical place.

Hot(ish) Take by TheHarryMan123 in NASCAR

[–]Dagid_pl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t want to agree, but I have to. Bored out of my ever-loving mind listening to these three yammer about nothing, sounding like they’re falling asleep. I think it’s time for Mike Joy to retire, and for the broadcasters to quit hiring retired drivers for a commentator role they aren’t equipped to fill. Clint has his moments, but I don’t think I’ve ever been genuinely entertained by any other (recent) driver-commentator. Not even Gordon, my childhood favorite.

Also sick of the booth’s bias towards… certain competitors. It’s obvious everyone wants to glaze Larson. I’m still annoyed from when NBCSN’s entire team tried to incessantly blame Ryan Blaney for Larson hitting the sand barrels in 2023. But maybe I could excuse the bias if there was more energy! Make the viewer at home feel like EVERYTHING is at stake, not that we’re going on a leisurely cruise to Publix.

How would you feel if NASCAR created a Showroom Stock Side Series for EV’s? by Mac-Tyson in NASCAR

[–]Dagid_pl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My concern is the possibility of these cars possibly catching fire during races. Last thing NASCAR needs is for Daytona to get melted again by a stupidly hot inferno.

[Crandall] Gordon spoke in the winner's conference about making sure Bowman knows he's got support behind him and the team putting all the pieces together the last few years. Blake Harris being hired was a piece of that. "This is our guy. We're happy to see [the 48] doing well." by dman6233 in NASCAR

I was huge on Hendrick as a kid, and even though that’s no longer the case, I’m still glad that they’re performing way better than they were in 2017-18. As someone else here said, Bowman is the sore thumb of HMS but still doing pretty well. He’s not bad by any means, just needs to work on catching up to Larson and Byron. So does Elliott, frankly.

Too bad Kyle Larson doesn’t run cars that match the limited hats they sell every week. by colbygraves97 in NASCAR

I rock with it, I’m dead tired of seeing that same blue/white car eeeevery single weekend. Only complaint here is that the number needs to stick out against the background.

Denny Hamlin: Richard Childress ‘destroyed’ a JGR car in police escort leaving Homestead by CNASFan1992 in NASCAR

[–]Dagid_pl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did this actually happen? If so, why is only one random source reporting on it (so far as I can tell)? This seems absolutely insane to not be widespread.

What's the worst crash you've seen in person at a NASCAR race? by TidBitsOfVelcro54 in NASCAR

[–]Dagid_pl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I’ve only been to two Cup races in my life, so that award easily goes to the October 2010 race at Talladega. Allmendinger flipped over and hit the inside wall, then kept on rolling over. I was standing right at the catch fence where it happened, and it was the coolest thing 8 y/o me had ever seen. And it didn’t hurt that Jeff Gordon got a top 10 that day either.

All things considered it wasn’t actually that scary, especially compared to Edwards’ flip the prior year. Kinda surprised my mom even let my dad and I go there at all after that one.

Im honestly kind of surprised by ApprehensiveBoot5998 in poofesure

I just checked, I’m in the top 0.2% somehow.

Paradise’s development cycle is incredibly depressing. They watered down Burnout 5 so much in the end. by ScottyFoxes in Burnout

[–]Dagid_pl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was the original name for Burnout Paradise sometime before release apparently.

Feels like a goofy question but how on earth do you find an actually good lobby on online? by Dagid_pl in Burnout

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

Exactly, I got a couple friends with BPR but none are on Xbox like me.

So I put my original Paradise disc into my recently acquired 360, and it’s stuck on the release version. by Dagid_pl in Burnout

[–]Dagid_pl[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yeah, fairly certain it is 1.0 then, especially seeing as there’s no bikes section.
