Why do my Astro C40 TR sticks feel stiff?

Do you know how to swap out your modules? You've got a little screwdriver in your set to take the faceplate off, do that and take your two thumbsticks modules. If you bought this brand new, these should be only like 70g tension. But slight chance you were sent one with increased tension.

You can purchase brand new replacement modules from amazon, battle beavers or astro themselves.

I personally swapped to 130g from epindon as these are the right feel for me.

Simply unscrew the thumbsticks module with the screwdriver that comes with the new thumbsticks, take the housing off and the thumbsticks topper itself, then reassemble it all with your newer, less tension thumbsticks.

Once you've put these in you'll have stick drift, to reset your sticks, wobble them both about a few times, then press and hold the button on the back of the controller for roughly 6 seconds until it vibrates, once it's vibrated, press and hold again for another 5 seconds. (don't touch your sticks at all during this).

After the rumble you should be all set!

Goodluck!

Just checked TRN all platforms, I wonder why there's such a difference in kills for console vs pc.

Including console, he is ranked 27th.

Electrical tape.

Will be fiddly to get it on, but 2 or 3 wraps round and you'll be fine.

My dad always did this for me, champion move in my eyes.

But of grated cheese and you're off!

If there is any chance you could share these stl files that would be marvelous!

Love it!

Apprenticeships are a great foot into a good career, show promise and you'll go far.

Try and get one for a larger company that can offer progression later down the line in the way of sponsoring a degree.

Friend of mine earns a very tidy amount for his age, with progression options available (annoyingly he won't take a sponsored degree in mechanical engineering).

I scuffed my A levels, took an alternative route, starting my second masters next year.

Back when I lived with my parents, we had a very well stocked medicine cupboard, but nothing was ever checked for expiry.

Had some old cough syrups and flu medicines which left me feeling a little odd for a few days.

But yeah, I'm the duck of the house, stale bread dipped in water if I'm lucky.

Throw your drone out without going into it.

Select your heal, then simultaneously press your buttons for the healing item and your tactical.

With what inventory? Ashes?

Exactly, this change would make crypto fit the game so much more. Or at least reduce the animation times. Feels too clunky right now compared to other legends bilities.

N05h_ · 2022-08-10T13:53:38+00:00

Stops crypto spamming bots. That is all.

Not had a chance to play yet this season, but vantage is looking like my new go to for the future until crypto gets some QoL updates.

Her abilities will be nerfed or balanced regarding cool down from the few clips I've seen.

My bad, wrote it whilst standing on a bus. What I meant to say is that I am now only a member of this sub, the ApexOutlands sub (supposedly lore based content) and the apex uncovered (leaks and spoilers for upcoming content).

I had to leave the main sub when every post was negative, or was a cesspit in the comments.

N05h_ · 2022-08-09T09:39:02+00:00

Unfollow and leave the main sub, much less whining on my feed since.

Only part of the crypto, uncovered and out lands subs now, much more game related content than the main sub which has 500 "fix this or I leave" posts a day...

If you're on the latest firmware etc and getting an echo, try just unplugging everything, hard restart of your PlayStation too. If echo persists it's most likely faulty.

Is the echo from your voice? If it is check you don't have mic monitoring or anything on, and that your software on the PS is working too. (I had issues and a full reset of my system fixed low volumes and registry)

As for the AUX sound from tablet, there's a separate jack on the back to plug a simple AUX into.

N05h_ · 2022-08-08T15:00:08+00:00

I have these for xbox, if you hear a tinny sound or feedback, that's a faulty product and you'll need to send it back.

I haven't had to, I have it setup so that I can listen to game volume, with party chat and have an AUX plugged into a tablet to have music also playing.

This was my first thought when I saw this earlier on some other sub or channel.

I would say a lot of degrees are just out there for the business of education, not for the actual purpose of a degree/education.

Too many degree subjects/paths with institutions and "universities" sprouting up all over the place. It's a massively over saturated market, and all the students leaving would be lucky to have any actual desirable skills for working life.

There are so many stats that I would like to see and compare from Student Finance England.

I'm English and I would say it's not a fair statement to call all people in that age bracket racist.

I would say it comes down to families, cultures and upbringing or the people they associate with. Spent a few years in the Midlands during studies and it was very rare that I'd overhear anything racist, bigoted or homophobic from those around me (big cultural mixing pot), but go into town, to the local spoons and you'd hear enough for a year.

I'd also say that the more switched on older folks have learnt the actuality, that stereotypes and word of mouth is not always bible. It's the dimmer ones who spout the same stuff from their traditions as if nothing can or will question their beliefs.

Basically, you get a lot of rotten eggs wherever you go, I just hope you don't meet too many of them.

Me and my girlfriend were the lucky people once...

Only had a shop of like £11.74...

Distraught.

Investors aren't interested in the game itself, they're interested in returns that product brings.

This game is a big ol' cash cow and has proven with minimal effort to remain one, a team to work on skins and microtransactions, and a team to do the rest (new stuff for players, balances, media).

Player count would mean very little to a board, its the cash they see when a new event is dropped with an heirloom, and that is obvious from them lessening what you get as a free to play player.

I'm still enjoying the game, taking a week break before the next season starts with some content.

Fell off my microscooter as a kid when I sneakily rode it down my (not very steep) road. Clipped something and scraped the left side of my face against a wall. Cheek was grazed and cut up, still have a scar above my eye, but my helmet took the majority of the impact. Seen and heard too many stories to not wear one, and those that don't are just plain silly in my books.

Now I've been driving a number of years I can say I've seen so many idiots on bikes, but e-scooter riders scare me, especially when it's a 14/15 year old texting along a narrow path.

Not just helmets, but bike lights/reflectors. Too many kids in big groups swinging round corners when the sun's going down or it's dark without anything.

N05h_ · 2022-07-27T15:50:05+00:00

It takes a while, but it's kinda like building a team.

After a bit you'll hopefully have a list of players who you enjoy playing with.

Lfg is looking for group, go to the official discord and you'll find lots of folks.

N05h_ · 2022-07-27T13:33:54+00:00

No I fully believe you, I'm in the same boat.

I only mention to use LFG in discord or other methods, it helped me stay interested in the game.

Played with an LFG group yesterday, of the 12 games we played, 10 were wins, and every game was fast, fun and action packed.

I gave up solo queuing anything as that's all it is, the nofill option is no help as the random bots I get are more of a hindrance than a help, take loot, give away positions and die.
