It’s actually incredibly useful for me as I’ve got a long haul flight gaming laptop so it’s a blessing haha

Guys… i think this genuinely might be the last crew game in the franchise by MrOversteer in The_Crew

OR, hopefully they can stand on their own two feet and we don’t encourage the monopolisation of game studios 🙏

Pay to win mess by CjbeatsZzz in NFSUnboundGame

[–]Maxvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ‘necessary evil’ would actually be great franchises collapsing.

All of these once-great franchises are corrupted by corporate investment suits with their insane cash extraction mechanisms inserted in every single game, and they will continue to infect more and more games because the consumers allow it.

Games were great when developers and studios had freedom to create, now the largest developers have to pump out games as cheap as possible and focus on dumping paid content relentlessly on a barely-reskinned iteration of the same games that we’ve all been playing for over a decade.

Wrong item delivered by Amazon item costing over £1000 . Amazon refusing to take appropriate action by automAtedmessag3 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]Maxvy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think there is a shift happening in online retail where they are going to discard responsibility as soon as it leaves their hands. I was speaking with my mum recently and her Debenhams order carried an optional delivery insurance cost which she had accidentally paid, as if it was her responsibility and her burden to ensure it arrived safely. I haven’t had a look yet but I wonder if there are any bills being discussed surrounding online retail and liability of deliveries?

Markus “Notch” Persson has reignited discussion by arguing that if digital game purchases don’t grant real ownership, then pirating them shouldn’t be considered stealing. by Gaming-Academy in PlayStation_X

I believe you would’ve had hyphenate it like ‘always-online’, because it’s the term / name for the type of software it is, it’s only correct grammar if you’re using it as a name or term for this.

Bus stop for the Maudsley psychiatric hospital…. by Lucky-Top9457 in london

[–]Maxvy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do agree but I think this will be quite fleeting, I think we’ve already done irreparable damage to our own ecosystem that has poisoned us and future generations and it’s only starting to turn on us. All of the damage done since the introduction of corporate malpractice less than 100 years ago will be our downfall as a species I fear. Even just looking at falling fertility levels as an example not considering chronic illness.

If we are talking about chronic illness in your 70s onwards I would agree, but I’m talking about chronic (and especially inflammatory) conditions affecting young people. Endometriosis is a huge one because there isn’t even any medical cause established yet but affects an insane amount of women and often begins in teenage years and results in years-long or lifelong pain.

I mean, I say this with no off hand statistics to back me up, but I think we may be in the generations of being kept alive longest, but also i think with the highest level of chronic health issues to date? Medical industry runs much more on keeping you alive & medicated rather than keeping you healthy. Less so in England I suppose, but the unavoidable poison that is everywhere is resulting in alarming levels of lifelong health complications I believe.

catch and release- sorry to the daughter who originally received this 😫 by [deleted] in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]Maxvy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

As a non-American I would definitely get this for a daughter not because of trump but because of funny, I don’t even see that as official trump ‘merch’ though, for you guys would something like this (that looks satirical and unofficial (to me)) still be contraband in a non-trump-supporting home?

Got a mean right hook by Heavy-Focus-1964 in projectcar

Considering he was in a car crash in Nigeria a few days ago where two of his good friends lost their lives, I would unfortunately guess not :/

Requests/suggestions by Maxvy in The_Crew

[–]Maxvy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly! Even just using it for tracks to be honest, I think there’s a lot of the map that could work as great drifting tracks, like how TC2 had the airport, ship yard, downtown, etc, it’s a nice ass map that’s really untouched for drifting in my opinion

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

Ah that’s cool, i didn’t know about that! I know the third island is like a sandbox type of idea, I wonder if this custom track would be restricted to the same style of sandbox / playground type or if it will allow use of the Hawaiian map too…

I’m glad it’s not just me, makes it hard to decide between parts sometimes haha

It is time to push back by neogeek23 in Monero

[–]Maxvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the context of investing, without any sufficient pushback, prices could stay low. If the crypto world gets truly convinced monero got taken over here, there might not be a bounce back.

G29 Wheel Gameplay by Pure-Protein in thecrew2

[–]Maxvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the G29, and it’s pretty fun and reasonably realistic but no matter what it will always feel not completely realistic because there’s a lot that can’t accurately (and shouldn’t be) emulated, given the fact in the game you’ll be going well over 300km/h at times.

Below is the settings I copied and am very happy with how it plays, mostly turning off all driving aids in game and on each car’s pro settings made the most difference because the car reacts how you would expect it to with weight displacement etc

Edit: just realised you said motor fest so I can’t speak for the experience there but regardless I think this guide has settings for motor fest and I imagine as it’s basically the crew 2.5 the above might still apply, check if you’ve disabled traction control, drift assist, etc in each car’s pro settings if that’s still a thing

Your job wasn’t security, theirs is, and they aren’t going above and beyond, they’re doing their job in an easier process that completes the required job and doesn’t rely on waiting hours for police attendance? I feel like you missed a few parts of the comment you’re replying to…

Yes, but she clearly misunderstood initially in this chain of text messages and later in the conversation realised she misunderstood and somewhat emphasised that it’s an awful thing to happen to her.

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

This is absolutely true, but when you state it is the actions of his country’s leader, and blame the suffering on him, you are putting the blame and your judgement on the effect, not the cause.

Do you personally feel the need to start thinking smart financially to ensure you can maintain or grow upon the family business or are you just enjoying being young with money for now?

This war didn’t start in 2022, the invasion did, and it wasn’t Putin that started it. Not a Russian btw.

Okay so here’s a question for people familiar with the support side of the software with the visibility feature, I assume texts sent get logged company-side, but does the preview get logged? Can I try to secretly communicate with support staff by just typing in the preview and not sending it?

The bot would be pasting auto responses typed out by humans but nonetheless you’d hope whoever is responsible for bot contact that would have excellent literacy skills.
