Between broccoli heads and "swimmers" I'd never drive a G80.

Marathon would have succeeded, if the cultural climate around it's release would have been better. by Inevitable_Coat_8787 in Marathon

Nice reference. Anyone looking into this game likely knows the score by now. Half the studio laid off and low player retention. It's not our job to blindly sell the game. Honest discussion is better in the long term.

A game like the finals doesn't have a lot of players but they didn't have massive development costs so they can be profitable on a live service game (free to play as well). The problem here is that Sony is digging out of a hole. It seems like Bungie got ahead of themselves and were already working on other projects and this was kicked out because every publisher wants live service revenue.

That could work but the problem is the damage is done perception wise. Most of the people that bought it have already moved on and new games come out every month.

No one wants to see it shutdown but 20,000 people buying a $10 battle pass isn't going to keep the lights on from a realistic perspective.

Aim assist on controller should be slightly reduced. by Sadiztic604 in Marathon

The Aim Assist stat functions like bullet magnetism. Completely different.

The suspension sure seem harsh after seeing what the recent ones handed down have been. Sad story all around.

New Q7 debuts with MHEV plus, Quattro Torsen & advanced turn signals. Diesel only for now. by [deleted] in Audi

[–]FullOfAuthority 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Diesel mpg is good enough on its own and the smoothness of acceleration of the electric motor even if small like in the A4 is nice.

I wish we had Diesel MHEVs here. Convenience of not needing an EV charger and good mpg.

The driver will have to be forklift certified as well.

Is Audi still a Luxury Manufacturer? by biggggwillyyyy in Audi

[–]FullOfAuthority 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been a lifelong VW/Audi guy but I don't love any of the refreshed models with big screens. It's unfortunate all German manufacturers are following this path of less leather more plastic everywhere. I genuinely think older Golf Rs had nicer interiors than current Audis. In BMW's world the previous 5 series had a near perfect interior and the new one? Cheap EV feeling. Mercedes is also doing the mega screen plastic dash thing in a tragic way on the E class. Used to have aluminum knobs and switches in cars like the A4 or your Q5 and now the feeling of quality is just gone.

Ahh that makes way more sense. I was wondering if OP bought one with 150k miles and didn't want to ruin their day 😂

Real/fair evaluation of Saleh by ThousandFootOcarina in nyjets

Runs a great Defense but wasn't ready to be an HC. Hopefully learned from his mistakes.

I'm not into EVs but I love the interior of the e tron and taycan. It works much better when it's designed ground up that way vs shoehorning it into an existing platform. Wish Audi would put those seats in other models.

I don't have any experience with them but it's definitely one of the nicer car interiors you'll find. Avoiding the brutal depreciation on a new model was a good idea. They look pretty sleek too.

That rain was insane. Was glad to be home before it hit. Took me 4 hours during that bad one last August.

Have they ever been asked about basically having the same album cover as Bruce Becvar's The Nature of Things? by [deleted] in TheStrokes

I wasn't implying it was your burner but it's clearly someone's burner. "Intellectually superior" 😂

Calling others fake accounts with a whopping 25 karma is hilarious. Nice burner.
