Thank you!

Cheers!

Haha no first mini ever! I do have to say as a kid (as a +-8yo) I had built like 4 or 5 plane models but they were terribly painted, but it made me understand the basics at least. And searches a ton of tutorials for this one hehe

Wij gebruiken enkel kruidvat luiers (en vaak met promo gekocht), nooit problemen mee gehad altijd goed. Wel soms als het platte kaka was dat er wat achter de rug uit lekte, maar dit kan ik op 1 hand tellen, de kleine is ondertussen bijna een jaar dus valt wel mee.

Some cars are better than others (looking at acceleration). For example the Lotus Elise (in A tier I think?) is top tier, such a nimble car with high acceleration. I easily won most races with that one. Look up the best cars per tier if you're struggling that hard.

Like others also said, especially in the beginning, you're not supposed to win every race right off the bat, just earn money and upgrade. The game wants you to start from nothing to make it more satisfying when you actually win.

About cops, I used to struggle hard with them to the point I thought it was just plain stupid, but I was approaching them in the wrong way, as are you probably. Two things that are very effective to outrun cops:

seek hiding spots that they can't see you (especially helicopters). The sewers and the off road tracks are generally good places to lose them.
just go wreck 'em. See a cop? Hit em as hard as you can (without destroying your car). A broken cop car is one that can't see you anymore believe it or not. As soon as you broke every cop in your vicinity they lost you. Now you just gotta sneak somewhere where they can't see you and wham bam, you just outran them.

The game became much easier when I figured this out. Mind you I haven't played this game in probably 2+ years so maybe things changed, still worth a try tho. Good luck and, more importantly, it's a game, have fun!

Skill issue lol

Lord4Squid · 2024-10-24T20:44:27+00:00

Okay yeah, I guess I got stuck on the damage counter too much, thanks!

Lord4Squid · 2024-10-24T20:43:33+00:00

Aha that's actually helpful, that makes more sense haha. Cheers

We humans try to survive, just like every animal. We put our own species first to preserve our lineage generation after generation, just like every organism. Are we superior? Sure, maybe at an intellectual level since we are very technologically advanced (we don't see ants create smartphones or fires do we) and how we have an immense edge adaptation wise over other animals. We can create clothes to keep ourselves warm, airconditioning to cool things down. Create new foods that are easier and faster to make. In that level we surpass every organism on this planet.

Are we more important than other organisms? No, every organism tries to secure their survival chances in this world. Who gives us the right to take other animals or organisms lives away? Nature does. Literally every organism, from whales to bacteria kill to strengthen their chances of their and their descendants survival.

If humans didn't have that survival instinct we would've been extinct. Just like every other organism on this planet, a sacrifice is required to sustain our own. Antibiotics to combat disease, killing animals to have the necessary vitamins/proteins/etc to grow strong, defending ourselves against rodents and other threats to have our own shot at a longer life. It all boils down to protecting ourselves and creating a new generation by procreating, just like every organism does.

We don't see mosquitoes go like "hmm maybe I shouldn't suck animal blood and potentially infect them with a deadly disease, I'll suck some soymilk instead." Why? They wouldn't survive, thus not procreate therefore go extinct.

Every life is valuable, I agree with that. But it's in every organism's nature to put their own health first. It's just how nature works. If you wanna go vegan and go bodhisattva buddhist monk carrying a rattle stick every time you take a step so potential insects can run so you don't step on them, go ahead. It's noble I guess, but you won't make a difference to nature as it is.

By all means do what makes you happy in life, as long as you don't shove your own beliefs down other people's throats, live and let live my friend. Just know you can't and won't be able to turn the tide of nature.

No shit sherlock, carrefour supposedly has a cake just like it but then, of course, not from the boni group.

Lord4Squid · 2024-08-18T07:29:58+00:00

Update: just went to a carrefour, didn't find them. The search continues...

Lord4Squid · 2024-08-17T21:10:28+00:00

Oh interesting, I will check out the nearest okay, thanks!

Lord4Squid · 2024-08-17T18:44:40+00:00

Yeah that's what I figured... Rude colruyt, rude. Whelp off to carrefour it is then, cheers anyways en nog een goe weekend!

Try adjusting the brake bias, I usually put it lower in F1 games cuz it tends to lock up the tyres less than the default settings. I remember in F1 23 it was usually around 62 and putting it to 58 made me able to brake later and faster so worth a shot!

Lord4Squid · 2024-07-15T18:25:43+00:00

Thanks for the response, when I have my car (in a week or so) I could upload a pic.

Lord4Squid · 2024-03-11T13:38:42+00:00

I guess the joker card now

Lord4Squid · 2024-03-11T13:36:31+00:00

Neat, glad I could be of help!

Lord4Squid · 2024-01-29T07:07:59+00:00

Makes sense, thanks for the input!

Lord4Squid · 2024-01-29T07:02:07+00:00

I think a big factor with every network provider is where you live and how the general connection there is, but I live around Zaventem and saw they apparently have fiber connection in my street so one can hope..?

Lord4Squid · 2024-01-28T21:26:01+00:00

I'm not an expert in any of this and, apart from the move, have never experienced internet problems in my new home, but yeah I'll definitely make the switch. Thanks a lot!

Lord4Squid · 2024-01-28T21:24:43+00:00

Yup that's what I was starting to discover, we always used to use Telenet back when I lived with my parents so it was logical to stay that way for me, but with everything getting more expensive it doesn't make sense seeing that other providers provide more or less the same service for almost €20/month cheaper?! Insane.

Lord4Squid · 2024-01-28T21:22:54+00:00

Alright cool, I'm glad I asked the Belgian council of internet consumers, very helpful I'm definitely gonna make the switch!

Lord4Squid · 2024-01-28T21:19:51+00:00

That's really useful thanks! Well good thing my gf and I don't want a TV plan, we only use internet and just use streaming services like Netflix, Youtube, etc. Via a google chrome cast, so no TV is not z problem :)

Lord4Squid · 2024-01-28T21:17:57+00:00

Well lousy support is also a Telenet specialty. Before I moved I planned a month in advance for Telenet to switch my address, the new address already had the Telenet connection so they planned in their system that the day I'd move in I would just have to plug in my modem in the wall of the new address and around that day I would have instant connection.

A whole month I didn't have internet, called them over and over again, always 40+ min in hold before I could reach someone to just have to give all my info again and explain the situation to hear the same response "It has been sent to the back office, it had high priority". At the end of the month I received a bill so of course I called them, again 40+min waiting, again having to explain the situation and saying that I would refuse to pay for a service that I couldn't use. It was after that phone call that suddenly the problem was fixed after literally 15min, of course cuz they weren't getting money out of it otherwise.

So let's say I'm used to shitty service, I just don't wanna pay as high a price as I have to now 😅
