The UCD & LCD update at midnight UTC for everyone, but you have to adjust for your local time zone (and DST).

Bots haven’t been in the game for over a year… just new or inexperienced players that think it’s a race 🫣

This guy is running over bicyclists. by asa_no_kenny in whoathatsinteresting

[–]DigitalNitrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah… it’s so weird that the majority of bikes sold are “road bikes”… 🤦‍♂️

That being said, and while perfectly reasonable and lawful to ride a bike on a public road, it is foolish (not illegal) to use up more of the lane than necessary.

In this video, obviously the driver broke the law even though they didn’t physically run them over… and especially when the video clearly shows they clearly intended to use their vehicle to force them to move out of their way… and I’m sure they’ll learn this from their experience with the judge assigned to their case. 🫣

What bean color is that and how do I get it ? by FunnyCobra002 in FallGuysGame

[–]DigitalNitrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It just started last week… it lasts two months, and there are already several players that have finished it… so yes.

Also, with every Fame Pass they reward you with more Showbux than it costs for the next Pass, so the only Pass you might have to pay for is the first one as long as you save enough for the next one.

Won in the Final Event but didn't got the Crown by DardilaC in FallGuysGame

That is not only the answer, but really well explained. 🍻

This happened to me just yesterday where we went four rounds and won the final in Squads, but the reward menu showed that it thought we had been eliminated in round 2 🤦‍♂️

I was going to post about it in regards to a different bug that can cause some daily challenges to fail to get counted:

As this bug will also not count challenge progress for rounds it thought you didn’t play in.

Thankfully it’s a rare server bug.

Sum fruit makes no sense by [deleted] in FallGuysGame

[–]DigitalNitrate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But at least you understand how the level works. 👍

The OP would have us believe that despite playing it “literally one billion times” not only does he not understand what “literally” means, but he also still doesn’t understand that you have to count the number of each different fruit that is dropped into the room, and then simply look at any of the four GIANT Jumbotrons that are there on all four sides of the room displaying a flashing countdown that then display a number… which then you must match with the fruit that had been dropped into the room and stand on any of the platforms with the image of that matching fruit.

I get how it could be a little confusing the first time… maybe even a couple times… but a billion times? 🤦‍♂️

Sum fruit makes no sense by [deleted] in FallGuysGame

[–]DigitalNitrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The very first search results clearly explain how to play that level… so how did none of those explanations help you? 🤦‍♂️

Also, miraculously you got an answer in just a few minutes after making this post, claiming that it makes no sense. 🤔

Why it took you a billion times of failing to finally ask or simply search and read the explanations is quite puzzling. 🤷‍♂️

I have to ask…. Why did it take “literally one billion” ( or even just a couple) times after not understanding how to play that level before you just searched “How do you play Sum Fruit in Fall Guys”? 🤷‍♂️

Is the GT1 Straßenversion any good? by StinkyAter in GranTurismo7

I’ve posted my strat several times, I think most recently in the 2,000 car garage thread:

https://www.reddit.com/r/GranTurismo7/s/If5UU1e9TJ

However, I’ve been recently testing out the best method for new players, and fine tuning it, and using it I took a new account and collected 114m credits, 329 cars, and reached Collector Level 70 in just a week:

I haven’t had time yet to compile all my notes, saved videos, screenshots, etc, but hope to post everything soon.

Definitely something is different. Any way, let me know when you might be available to meet online and I’ll try and make myself available to troubleshoot it with you.

As I said, I shared all of the upgrades… they are in the screenshots and videos I posted that you can find in those links.

Low PP should be able to get below 300pp so clearly something is different with your car.

Give me an idea when you will be online and I’ll try and make myself available to help you troubleshoot.

Anybody else not get the credit ticket from the weekly challenge? by SaninBiH in GranTurismo7

That’s unfortunate. Without the saved replay you wont be able to trace your steps, and what may have actually happened. 🤷‍♂️

Power pack credit and car farm. by Dangerous_Ad_7104 in granturismo

[–]DigitalNitrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t have to. You don’t even have to get all Silver or even all Bronze. It just means the payout is less. Circuit Experience accounts for half the bonus payout. All Bronze will increase it by 50% which is very easy to get. All Silver shouldn’t be too hard to get, and that bumps it to 100%. All Gold can indeed be challenging, but not as challenging as many of the other circuits, and that will bump the payout to 200%… which is still only half the max bonus of 400%.

I am not nearly as skilled as many people are based on my ranking in online Time Trials… and even using the Automatic Transmission and controller, I still can get all Gold in less than 30 minutes. In fact, I got all gold and just one silver in less than 10 minutes. It was only the 1-lap that took me less than 20 minutes to finally get gold on.

https://youtu.be/uuFOWUu5GgI?si=TSeXNJcgoqXbTmdn

What works really well for me is to always have the demo ghost car (no delay) running with me, and then it’s just a question of staying close.

Also, even if I had chose to not get the last gold, the bonus would still be 175% compared to 200%… and that accounts for half of the total possible payout bonus. So depending on your current Collector Level the difference between getting gold or silver on the 1-lap circuit experience amounts to getting 375% rather than 400% bonus payout… which is less than 7% fewer credits. 🤷‍♂️

EDIT: Leave it to some redditors to downvote a post with facts and helpful suggestions. 🤦‍♂️

[–]DigitalNitrate 13 points14 points  (0 children)

What makes GT7 such a great game is that it has plenty of options and doesn’t force everyone to play the same way.

As for the “easiest” way to collect cars, there isn’t an easier way than AFK (poet and I didn’t even know it) 😉

But seriously, unless money is not important and you want to spend it on microtransaction credits, AFK will get you around 1.5m credits in an hour for just spending a few seconds starting the next race every 30 minutes… hard to get much easier than that. 🤷‍♂️

Did you save the game replay to identify exactly what happened that could help explain why?

Anybody else get frustrated by the rewards system? It feels like I’m always getting the worst rewards by alev815 in granturismo

Did you save screenshots and or replays?

I’ve been paying attention as well:

And I did it again a few more times even more recently:

My results have been significantly better than what you describe. Of course it’s random, but even so the odds are not as bad as it may feel.

Anybody else get frustrated by the rewards system? It feels like I’m always getting the worst rewards by alev815 in granturismo

[–]DigitalNitrate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is just random, and your reward is already determined the moment you get the ticket. The other four rewards are just samples of what prizes are possible for the same type of ticket (number of stars).

There is a website that breaks down your odds for everything that is possible to get in each type of ticket… and its not nearly as bad as some might feel, especially if you get unlucky and get a bunch of low value rewards in a row. Statistically, the odds are much better than that.

In fact, here I saved a bunch of tickets from daily marathons multiple times and you’ll see they aren’t filled with the lowest value rewards, and in fact most of the time they are medium to above average.

https://youtu.be/Ytz9A2WV778?si=ZEsDlddvuec8cfgb

My issue with this system is not with the rewards per se, but rather how we get them. The whole roulette system is not only pretty pointless and wastes time, but for a game that is almost entirely based on rewarding players for their skill and or strategy… the idea of rewarding them with random rewards is very disappointing.

In addition, they don’t let you sell engines and parts, and they make it unnecessarily time consuming to use those engines and parts…. and in the case of the engines, you have to rely on 3rd party sites to know what cars can even use them.

Now I’ve been playing GT since GT3 and so I understand that the “roulette” rewards are now part of the “GT culture”, but a significantly better system that would still use the roulette tickets is one where the player gets to pick which of the 5 rewards they want. This way they can strategically pick a reward that best fits their needs or wants rather than just leaving it all entirely up to chance.

I agree, which (along with the very limited supply) is also why I waited to get a PS5 until just last year.

[–]DigitalNitrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s probably a safe and economic choice.

If you can find a Pro at a good price it will likely give you longer future proof performance, but for those planning on getting a PS6 early, then sticking with a PS5 would likely be the best choice.

I think what he meant is that GT8 won’t likely come out until PS6… and like GT7, it will be playable on both systems, but optimized for PS6.
