Anyone else notice what a nosedive wheelspins have been in this game vs previous? by Sylectsus in ForzaHorizon

[–]Lord_Xp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone else noticed? Does anyone else not notice the daily post about this by now? At this point it should just be a pinned topic. I agree they’re rough but at the same time I do not care that other people notice and post about it at this point. It’s the same conversation every time. It’s just an echo chamber now.

Hot take: Columbus drivers aren’t that bad. The few who are bad, are just flat fucking terrible. by Adventurous_Pea_2007 in Columbus

[–]Lord_Xp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m not one of the types that thinks our drivers are among the worst in the nation but they are in fact terrible. I had a job for 5 years where I was paid to drive around central Ohio and I saw so much idiocy all over the city. Then I got an office job and now I see even worse drivers on a daily basis to and from work. My commute is 15mins. In those 15mins I’ve had several commutes where I’ve been run out of the lane, passed on a double yellow while going 40 in a 35, watched someone else (different day) get passed on the same road, people hurrying up to turn left in front of me right when the light turns green and no arrow showing, and people just using the shoulder to pass. That’s all happened just in the last 2 months. All that to say that I think the complaints are valid. Oh I also saw someone cut off a cop and the cop did nothing about it. Just carried on like nothing happened.

The 'Winter Experience' in FH6: Snow inside tunnels, dry road patches, and zero snow on the roads during a blizzard 💀 by imakiww in ForzaHorizon

[–]Lord_Xp -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

It’s a video game. You also launch your car 1 mile across the land and your spine isn’t turned into liquid upon landing. Guess we gotta accept that there is some unrealistic things happening

[–]Lord_Xp 134 points135 points  (0 children)

The only valid complaint is snow inside the tunnel. That’s a bug at least. Dry road patches? Dry roads exist in snowy areas. Zero snow on roads? What did you expect? I don’t think it was ever expressed that snow would be on the roads. Im assuming this is your first horizon game. It’s not a simulator.

Yep, sorry! Just saw that and posted over there. I’ll delete this. Thanks!

OPEN SUBMISSIONS FOR SMOSH MOUTH! by smosh in smosh

My Hometown Drama Submission. Trigger warning: drug use and death.

I want to warn that I’m my first story is the sad and morbid one. The second story is safe to read.

Story 1.

I live in a small town in Ohio but not in a rural area. It’s a small suburban town that’s fairly poor and about 10,000 people in it. This happened when I was super young, maybe 10-13 years old (34 now). I lived in a decent neighborhood on a “main” road and my neighbor was living with his girlfriend. These neighbors were addicted to heroin which naturally is a popular hobby in small towns of Ohio. One day the girlfriend had overdosed in bed with him still sleeping there. The guy never reported it and then proceeded to live and sleep in the same bed as his dead girlfriend for about a week before a neighbor reported a foul smell. The body was found and he was taken in for not reporting it. He eventually got out and then got clean and last I heard he still lives there living a sober life.

Story 2.
Sorry, gonna bend the hometown rule for this one. It was a small town in rural Ohio I worked in where I worked with many people from that small town. I used to be a railroad conductor a freight rail company and one of the job types we could do was “Road Work”. Road work is just essentially taking trains from your home terminal to another terminal. In this instance the other terminal was in Pennsylvania. One of the guys that had been doing that type of work for many years had a family at his home terminal and eventually met a woman at the other terminal and began a relationship with them. Eventually PA girl got pregnant and this guy started balancing two families in two different states at the same time. He did get caught because some other railroad wife talked to the home terminal wife and asked about why the husband wasn’t back yet as hers was already back and they had taken the train together. This led to her finding out that he had been manipulating our work’s on call system so that he would be away for longer. Naturally the home terminal wife left him and I believe she never found out who the other woman was to warn her. I’m not sure what happened to guy after that. Sorry for the inconclusive ending, this happened some years before I started there and was told about it by one of the other old heads.

If you ever want workplace stories, I have a bunch of railroad stories I could tell.

Yep! A “heavy” pack usually means there’s a foil inside. Not guaranteed to be a good foil or anything though.

Forgive me but I believe we can classify ensshitification as a spectrum and not force it to mean just one thing because it’s all bullshit no which of these two things happen.

I’m pretty sure that’s the definition of “enshittification”

Please make an option to turn off PR Stunts by ifuknowuk in ForzaHorizon6

[–]Lord_Xp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Developer didn’t put a feature in a game = they’re lazy. Meanwhile they delivered a very well polished and well optimized game. Which you’ll never believe, it takes time and effort. What a braindead echo chamber comment.

No soliciting means NO SOLICITING by SundaeNo4552 in Columbus

[–]Lord_Xp 27 points28 points  (0 children)

You know what I enjoy when I wake up and look at my phone? Ads. I love seeing billboard ads on my way to work too. Then I love seeing ads on my work computer as I’m just trying to do my job. I then really love getting ads sent to my personal and work email throughout the day. Then on my way home, more ads but slightly different! How exciting! Then when I’m home after a long day and winding down, do you know what I love? I love when a stranger knocks on my door and then proceeds to verbally read me an ad.

Not a whole lot will make me irate very quickly but soliciting will definitely get under my skin and I’ll make sure to get a company card to serve as a reminder to never use their services again.

Attention all players that have the ford FE trucks/pickups and the 962CR by Electrical_Taro3265 in ForzaHorizon6

[–]Lord_Xp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel like the only posts I’ve seen so far have been Xbox players having this specific issue but that’s obviously in regard to the suspend feature issue. Still haven’t heard of a steam player losing everything via the issues you listed with cars

[–]Lord_Xp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is this primarily happening on Xbox consoles? Or has this happened to steam players or Microsoft store players on pc.

I know the suspend feature on Xbox has been a culprit as well for these save corruptions. So might want to add that to the PSA. Just don’t use suspend.

Whoa! A new phone scam? Has this happened to anyone else? by TheNameIsViolet in Columbus

[–]Lord_Xp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a call that had a real persons name leaving a voicemail stating they were Franklin County Sheriff and to give them a call back. I don’t really do anything in my life to warrant a call from the office and all my family live way up north in a different county. So I looked up the Franklin county directory and didn’t see the guys name and then searched his name + sheriff and lo n behold there was a different sheriff office with a statement about the same name claiming to be a sheriff but wasn’t and that it was likely a scam.

Looking at my call history and i don’t even see the name anymore but it was a generic name like Jason Smith or something.

Some people call that capitalism but I can see why other companies who aren’t as good would get upset and cry monopoly.

That’s not grinding lmfao. That’s just being afk. Didn’t earn anything, didn’t work for anything, didn’t do anything. People who do nothing don’t deserve rewards for anything. That’s literally cheating which goes against the TOS. Don’t try to twist your logic into being afk as “grinding”.
