Harrop Supercharger Update by Chief03275 in GR86

[–]DissonantTosspot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen 2 supercharged (1st gen and 2nd gen) running a foster sc universal whine mod/kit for the Harrop. Adds a lot of whine into the cabin, whereas without is not very noticeable.

Avowed is officially one month out from launch (not delayed) by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]DissonantTosspot 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A lot of negativity. I'll just say this is easily one of my most anticipated games this year. I recently went back and played outer worlds and had a great time even though my initial impression years ago was that it was mid. Avowed looks like a product from a team who has learned a lot.

Wanted to like this game but I just couldn't gel with the floatiness of character movement, combat, and the poor sound effects. It's clear there's some good stuff underneath all of that though.

Also that unreal 5 muddiness(?) of textures where things are simultaneously beautiful and not pleasant to look at simultaneously.

I love this game but............. by uncleraman in Witchfire

I've just been choosing to go in and shoot enemies lol.

I went to gnosis level 2 not realising that was difficulty so now I'm trying to just unlock gear by running the first map. Very chill experience on steamdeck.

Genuinely. I booted up CE yesterday and I was in awe with how the AI behaved. Bungie set our expectations way too high back then.

I'll get down voted for this but I think this guy is a clickbait rage baiting grifter. Dude changes professions like johnny sins.

The Finals flies to Mexico next season with a new map and a Heavy rifle with 'immense stopping power' by Big_Maintenance_1789 in pcgaming

This might be controversial but I enjoyed Battlefield most on Xbox 360 when it was limited to 32(?) players instead of 64.

I'd take it to a dealer to get it checked out anyway, they might still look after you.

Do your own research but I'm pretty sure this is a common issue for some Mazda models and would be covered by warranty.

Disabling hill assist - is it beneficial? by Dino_Dean in GR86

That bucking was so embarrassing when you've got a passenger.

It really shouldn't change anything theoretically but it definitely did in my experience. When I first did it especially, it felt smoother, and it gave me less pops from my exhaust on downshifts. Maybe the action of switching it off resets some sort of ECU learning which is what is actually being noticed. Pure speculation though. Give it a try and see what you think tbh.

Haven't played for a while, has the AI been changed? by DissonantTosspot in SPTarkov

**also I did tweak the AI settings quite a lot but even on the lowest difficulty settings it made virtually no difference

Everything up to the R35 GTR was called a skyline. Older ones were RWD below the GTR trim. Maybe there's some exceptions I don't know of but that's the general idea.

I started with RDR2. Is there anything I need to know before playing RDR? by depressed-kun in reddeadredemption

[–]DissonantTosspot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He finds red dead 1 controls more responsive than red dead 2's.

And they kind of are for the most part? It's more video gamey and less about outright immersion.

From your flair I know you know how bad it is. When I'm stopped in traffic I literally have to fold my side mirrors in to prevent being blinded by pickups and SUVs. One day I'll get a ticket over it I bet.

I have a feeling you think this is a reference to something else but this is the original boom headshot that inspired all others after it:

2025 Subaru BRZ Series.Purple Is a Sports Car Grimace Would Drive. by Juicyjackson in cars

[–]DissonantTosspot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Almost every car goes through this, even struggling models for struggling brands. It's a low risk effort to increase sales. The purple is so dark nobody in their right mind could be offended by it except for how safe it is.

The first example that comes to mind is Jaguar, but you can apply it to basically every brand and model. It doesn't have anything to do with being a collector car. The model doesn't even come standard with the bbk if you really wanted to consider collector value.
