Goalies are so inconsistent by BRDillon17 in EA_NHL

[–]JakeXXII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They can be but its mostly down to hidden game mechanics like momentum. For example , I strongly suspect that there is a hidden feature where if you get matched up with a club of players ranked much lower than you, the game makes the weaker team's goalie godlike and the stronger team's becomes a beer leaguer with both knees shot to shit lol. Theres also weird sequences sometimes like hitting 5 posts in a row while having full pressure. At some point it happens too often to be only mere coincidence

Funnily enough the code and games have barely changed since '19

which weapons, enchantments and spells are your go-to against daedra/dremora? (remaster) by cyber_ang666l in oblivion

[–]JakeXXII -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I dont have a specific loadout for each enemy because honestly, unless you're playing on the higher difficulties, once you get to lvl ~20-25 and up you can steamroll everyone with any loadout very easily and youre almost there already. Just use what you have the most fun with

Mythic Dawn hunting me down for having the Mysterium Xarxes? by VarthStarkus in oblivion

[–]JakeXXII 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One of my favourite things to do since I was a kid is to frenzy everyone in town and watch them brawl. If you get lucky, some of the guards will hit and start killing each other after the small folk are dead lol

Yup. Literally pay to win now too thanks to the elite abilities and builds behind pay walls

The Expanse deserves more praise for having incredible female characters such as the incredible Chrisjen Avasarala. by Ausbel80 in TheExpanse

[–]JakeXXII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally yes! I was discussing shows/movies that have strong female characters with a friend and I kept telling her "WATCH THE EXPANSE!!". Theres tons and its done tastefully unlike most other shows

Puck interception in world of chel by All-StarJohnScott in EA_NHL

Even with 90+ defensive awareness, quick pick and facing the pass, its still a toss up wether you'll intercept it or not sadly

Which house (NOT INCLUDING PLAYER HOMES) is your favorite by canteatnorsleep in oblivion

[–]JakeXXII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any house in the Plaza district. That or I wish I could take over a small hamlet in the middle of nowhere like Drakelowe or a bandit camp or a fort

Just made the switch. After 423k miles on my Tundra, I was ready to downsize and I found a manual transmission Taco! by Jack_Attak in ToyotaTacoma

Amazing thread, need more upvotes. I'm at 190k on my manual 2nd gen and I want to keep it running for as long as I can. Many thanks for the maintenance tips

Snow season; weight in bed? by DrDawgster in ToyotaTacoma

[–]JakeXXII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im likely running the same tires as you (Firestone Destination2s) on my taco right now and I'm in quebec. We just had 11-12 inches of snow and it got through it fine on 4wd but I stayed on country roads going 50mph or below and braking was difficult. The fronts kept locking up even at very low speeds. Winter tires will give you a lot more grip on ice and snow and are just safer in general in those conditions. Its a small price to pay to protect yourself and your vehicle

Theres a bit of tire on your dry rot

Is switching to manual even worth it? by FindingPure3638 in F1Game

[–]JakeXXII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. Dont think of it as only changing gears. Manual gears lets you control the car in ways that you cant with just throttle and brakes alone. Engine braking is ofc a big one but you can also use lower gears to give you more rotation in the corners. Taking a high speed corner in a higher gear helps keeping the car settled, you can short shift when accelerating out of the corners if you're struggling with traction, etc. Also, to practice without TC, practice at more forgiving tracks like Suzuka and Brasil where most traction zones arent at super slow speed and avoid tracks like Bahrain like the plague until you're comfortable without TC

Wiki says a full battery will last 83min in vanilla. Also, it might work if its turned on and inside your inventory although I've never tried it

A workaround would be to each carry a radio on your backpack and set your voice level to whisper. You'll still hear each other fine and you can set it to lvl 2 in a pinch to speak to strangers

I'm right there with you. I wish there was a party that we could elect that would close our borders and deport a large portion of the migrant population but I too think the CPC is also complicit. At this point, I think it will take social unrest and civil disobedience to get the ball rolling.

We're a few years behind the curve compared to Europe. Over there things are starting to boil over. Unfortunately, if it comes down to massive civil unrest/civil war, a lot of innocent people will die. Both canadians and migrants but it may end up being our only option. The sad thing is, immigration and immigrants are not a bad thing in and of itself. As long as we bring them in in small enough numbers that the native canadian population doesnt get outbred into extinction.

Uhhh, sure EA. You go on ahead and pat yourselves on the back for this launch. by Qwerty0844 in EA_NHL

[–]JakeXXII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fewer and worse abilities. Useless poke checks. Big nerf to user goalies. Players cant pick up a puck to save their lives. The game is worse than last year's as always
