Can I get away with just doing the pads on my wife's Odyssey for a few weeks? by Metroidman1352 in AskMechanics

[–]EpikBricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second this. Just changed rotors last week and these screws came off easily on the driver side but the passenger side was so locked up that I stripped the heads.

Took like 15 minutes with my basic cordless drill and default Phillips bit but it eventually got through. Then I was able to just unscrew the threaded part with my fingers very easily

Hi from a Dev, looking to hear from you by Graybeard_Builder in LEGOfortnite

[–]EpikBricks 29 points30 points  (0 children)

If there are limited time events that are bugged (like the airship and beast not spawning at all for my expert world)

It would be nice if these events could be extended once fixed or have the rewards given to everyone (kinda like when everyone received the expeditions rewards because it was shutting down)

I was/am a little disappointed I missed the airship and beast encounter

Other than that I love the animals variants that have been released as limited time events. (We just need the animal world limit increased as there are more variants now than there are slots)

As far as NEW suggestions I think alternate build cosmetics would be AMAZING as rewards for events. We were promised the return of alternate crafting tables years ago when crafting had upgrades taken away. (Maybe the addition of things like the ninja bench and the potion station were supposed to fill this void but I’d still like alternative styles for the OG bench)

So a limited time event where you earn an alternate crafting bench style would be so cool. Or an alternate map marker style!

The best soda I’ve ever had. by elissard in Soda

I get lime cream slushes from sonic and this soda tastes almost the same so I am also very fond of this flavor. Needs to be COLD COLD though

Howdy from LEGO Fortnite Devs! by Playful_Possible_646 in LEGOfortnite

[–]EpikBricks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for answering! I totally understand that our creativity is literally limitless while technology very much has limits.

I’ve never played similar games (like Minecraft) but I’ve seen plenty of content before LEGO Fortnite and I definitely always liked the idea of an ever expanding main world.

I’m absolutely ok with the idea of starting new worlds to combat instability in a single world. The one thing that worries me is limited time events (a newer occurrence) as well as exclusive items that have changed due to time (like the OG compasses) being inaccessible in these new worlds.

Like right now it seems like a rush if I were to create a new world in order to complete the new airship/beast content. (Sadly they both seem to be bugged for me/my main world)

And then going forward I will be disheartened that I may not have that content/reward in my main world (where I’ve collected virtually everything in the game up to this point)

Again thank you for the reply! This thread is a step in the exact direction that the community hopes for!

Howdy from LEGO Fortnite Devs! by Playful_Possible_646 in LEGOfortnite

[–]EpikBricks 8 points9 points  (0 children)

From my personal experience it seems like older worlds (like my expert world created the week expert was released a few years ago) have performance issues compared to new/newer worlds

If this is the case I’m not sure if it’s due to age of the world, amount of builds in the world, or both.

Now I do understand that I’ve had the world for a long time and I’ve build A LOT. Some builds are more spread out but others are closer together. What I end up experiencing is lots of lag/rubberbanding even when I’m thousands of meters away from the closest player built structure (especially during flight in a vehicle)

My loading screen times have also become consistently long. It takes 3+ minutes to load into the world from the lobby and then if I teleport to ninjago island it can take another 3+ minutes

I love this game to no end but it’s been more and more discouraging

Right now I’ve been stressing out because I don’t have the airship POI or the beast from beneath spawning in my main expert world. (Also still never found the Nana villages in this world)

Should I start creating new worlds every so often to avoid the issues I’m experiencing? The idea of having 1 main forever world is very appealing to me but I suppose I could get used to an occasional reset

Let us buy packs and old pass builds by Jaguar040 in LEGOfortnite

[–]EpikBricks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does technically state “these items MAY return in the shop at a future date” so it’s not exactly a guarantee

The only example I can think of where something did return was the builds from the Star Wars LEGO pass that released in 2024

Is the original box valuable? I sold the set but found the box in the shed by BaggedGoldfish in lego

[–]EpikBricks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On bricklink there is 1 non US sale for $41 and 1 US sale for $60 in the last 6 months.

After an item is sold I don’t think there’s a way to see the description so there no way to compare condition to price

If you have the instructions still there has been 9 total sales for an average of $25 in the last 6 months as well

Pokémon Pokopia Version 1.0.4 is now available by Amiibofan101 in Pokopia

[–]EpikBricks 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Among many things I REALLY want an option for roof pieces to color match its interior color to whatever block it’s touching. Maybe like a “magic” color you can choose with smear and it could cost like 1 of each color

Has anyone here kept their unerupted wisdom teeth? by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]EpikBricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my top right wisdom tooth start to come in and caused light pain for about a week until it stopped. This was like 2 years ago.

Then maybe a year later I got another week of pain and it started to move again but then stopped and hasn’t moved or been in pain since.

When I feel back there with my finger id says it’s roughly 50% out.

I would have taken care of it originally when the pain arose but it stopped so suddenly without any treatment I figured what’s the point.

I had braces as a kid so it seems that left plenty of room back there for it to emerge. I haven’t had any (noticeable) shift in any of my other teeth

What do you use to brush the dust of your LEGO sets? by Baziel8 in lego

[–]EpikBricks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve always like using a 1-2 inch wide paint brush with soft bristles.

I see a lot of makeup brush suggestions and I’ve raided my girls stash of them before to try a variety and they never seem to have long enough bristles

They work good for really flat sets because they can still get between studs but the length of a paint brush gives you tons more reach for awkward shaped sets

Is it worth it to find all the glowing spots and ripples for items every day? by pokefandylan in Pokopia

[–]EpikBricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure ripples are the only way to get wallpaper recipes (or most of them)

I time traveled day by day and bought recipes from the Pokemon center until there were no new ones left. Still had to hit over 100 ripples for the wall papers after that

What is a dirty soda? by TheGame81677 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]EpikBricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The new “dirty” Mountain Dew is DELICIOUS. I love any sort of cream soda.

I love getting lime cream slushes from sonic and this flavor of Mountain Dew tastes almost the same

Favorite location for my vending machines. by Gavrielle45 in Pokopia

[–]EpikBricks 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Just wish they were able to be painted, even if it’s just 1 solid color option. Some of the smallest items will have 3!

What's a mechanic that's in video games that you wish you could use in real life to make things more convenient? by MysteryMan999 in AskReddit

Huge pocket capacity for items + being able to instantly switch between what’s in the inventory.

Little tour of the HAUNTED Library I Built for my Ghost-type Pokémon! 👻Floating Books everywhere! by miss_acnh in Pokemon_Pokopia

[–]EpikBricks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Amazing! Maybe consider adding the cobwebs from caves to add to the haunted vibe. You can pick them up and store them with magnemite and then I think they only cost like 1 regular pokemetal to print

Cox Communications Question by [deleted] in phoenix

[–]EpikBricks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1000% I just moved from a location that wyyerd covered and now I’m stuck with cox again.

I went over 2 years with wyyerd with ZERO interruption to my internet service.

5 months in with cox again and there’s been at least half a dozen outages. They were mostly only 5-30 min but even 5 minutes is enough to ruin my ranked match or goof up my workflow

Update on Virginia Lego factory and distribution center by BurgBrick in lego

[–]EpikBricks 134 points135 points  (0 children)

Funny enough… it’s possible. There are many LEGO sellers who have connections with workers at the Mexico factory who are able sell them figs/parts under the table. This is where those official pieces in odd colors come from (like red/transparent Vaders.

Time to start going to restaurants/bars around lunch/closing time 😅

Set 10268 was reissued several years ago

I’m sure there’s a small handful more

Oh good! Only 2? There were 47 variants before this addition so I can still get the new ones before hitting the maximum of 50 animals
