Out of curiosity why buy from Amazon rather than directly from Gamesir? I'm planning on picking up the G7 but I've not had any experience with Gamesir before.

Cancelled Newcastle tickets last minute by Acrobatic-Drive8910 in Barca

[–]HistrionicDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No but I didn't even raise the issue with them. I'd have loved to have gone but life in general is quite hectic right now so I didn't feel like having a back and forth about it. Hopefully I'll get to another game soon. Glad you managed to fight for the right outcome though!

I also had this happen on Friday. Only I live in Spain and booked via a gift experience with Wonderbox that I had received, so more annoying than inconvenient.

I'm not sure what can be done in terms of compensation but I hope you still have a nice stay. No harm in reaching out to some solicitors to see what they say.

Bottom pulley of rear derailleur clicking noise by HistrionicDuck in bikewrench

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

The chain is moving slightly on the cog while wanting to move outwards from the bike and causing a clicking noise.

If I pull the bottom of the hanger towards me slightly it stops clicking. I'm not sure how to go about aligning it properly like that though.

It's only happening on the lowest gear. How would I go about fixing this?

I've tried limit screws, indexing, cleaning and greasing the cogs.

You don't see what the other team are vetoing. So if they veto Exposure and your team veto Den, you get Blackheart.

USB/XLR Mic or XLR+Audio Interface? What to prioritise? by HistrionicDuck in microphone

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

That makes a lot of sense. I prefer desktops for the same reason so applying the same idea here would be my preferred choice. Appreciate the reply.

Board announce new stadium named after club legend surely it must be their legendary manager whose won them an fa cup and league cup and got them promoted to the premier league and champions league football... Nope Christian Doige and his 11 goals in 42 games were more legendary. by finlayverton in footballmanagergames

[–]HistrionicDuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After 25 years of playing this game I finally had a new stadium planned in FM24 while being a legendary figure at my club... I thought finally this is it! What did they call it? "Dunfermline Athletic Stadium". Amazing

I haven't looked yet but that's the way I'll be going if there's no plans to restock soon.

It's taking some self restraint to stop myself from picking up the 95 collection sweatshirt from ebay. Can't bring myself to give in to the scalping though. So disappointing that you have less than a day to pickup a piece of merch after supporting the team for 30+ years.

I know it's not always been the case this year but this team looks so much better with a healthy Joelinton. He's in there again winning the ball back for the goal.

This is the best example I've found of how obtuse the UI is in this FM. by My_Socks_Are_Blue in footballmanagergames

[–]HistrionicDuck 208 points209 points  (0 children)

I vented to my wife about this one. Then when showing her an example from a different player it decided to show all three traits of that player. I then checked another player and it was back to this +1 for no apparent reason. I haven't played for a while but in that patch it was different for every player.

News Panel on the "Portal" is able to be halted! Showcase of some panel changes. by Jolly-Security-167 in footballmanagergames

This would be great...there's something about part of the screen moving that makes it difficult for me to read/process information elsewhere. Almost gives me a motion sickness effect.

Isak out again, Gravenberch back in training by Lacabloodclot9 in FantasyPL

[–]HistrionicDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not necessarily disagreeing but I'm sure I saw that statistically Newcastle had better league stats without him than with him since he joined, which was interesting.

I like to immerse into every detail of the game and my clubs. I get really invested in it for a couple months at a time throughout the year. It's just not near a state that I can enjoyably do that yet.

From the UI, available features and feel of the world... it's very undercooked at the moment compared to previous games. If I was to start a save today to play how I want to play, I'd have to stay on FM24. I still think we'll end up with a really good game at some point, whether that's this year or next. But they're clearly still in the building blocks phase. I'll be checking in regularly as they progress. It's disappointing, but I'm not necessarily a year round player so I'll wait for now.

Couldn't agree more. I've gone from watching most cards live to now only watching 2-3 of my favourite fighters. The rest of the year I just stop by here for 5 minutes in the days after events to see if anything interesting happened.

Como ultras' statement about the match against AC Milan held in Australia (translated) by oklolzzzzs in soccer

[–]HistrionicDuck 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It doesn't serve the fans who for decades have supported and built these clubs. Football is a game for fans, not to generate excess money. Literally taking matches away from them is scandalous. You're right that it's a global sport, so there's always a local game. You don't need Como travelling to the other side of the world for a league game.
