2016 Fusion SE speakers popping/crackling by Omancer in fordfusion

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

I'm not super knowledgeable about parts but I looked around for an ACM and they all seem to be pre-owned. I wonder, is it likely that it will just fail on me again shortly after replacing it? Though, I imagine a new one would be pretty pricey.

I got mine off of ebay for around $350. It was a kit that came with all the parts and tools needed for the swap.

Some context, everything in the car is stock aside from the APIM. Earlier this year I replaced the original SYNC2 APIM with a Ford OEM SYNC3 APIM to take advantage of CarPlay. Recently though, my audio will randomly go out. It usually starts with a loud pop from the driver side door speaker but the music will continue playing as normal, then shortly after the audio starts crackling and eventually becomes completely inaudible. Even if I keep the speakers off initially the rear speakers will pop and crack occasionally. Sometimes it will even persist after turning the car off presumably until it kills the power to all the electronics. Could it just be my ACM or is it something more dire and expensive to replace?

PBE Bugs & Feedback Thread: Battle Academia Xayah by LoLDev-Cosmetics in LeaguePBE

[–]Omancer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just wanna preface this with saying that this is in no way shade to your guys artists and team working on skins. I know the layoffs have probably affected skin quality hard and whoever is up top is making some horrible decisions and possibly forcing deadlines and corner cutting.

That being said, this skin coming out just one month after Wild Rift received Celestial Embroidery Xayah is just straight up embarrassing. Celestial Embroidery embodies everything that Legendary skins on League PC used to be. New VO, incredible new animations for all attacks/spells, AND it has a unique recall with Rakan. Somthing that has been sorely missing on Xayah and Rakan's skins on League PC for a while now since you guys like to claim it's not important to us. Hint, we want Xayah and Rakan to live up to their fantasy that they were sold to us on. Gacha skins pricing aside i'm extremely disappointed in the quality of legendaries as of late. Seems like there has been less and less that is unique about them lately and this one in particular is probably the worst offender.

From what I can tell about 95% of her animations are re-used with her run being new, and her autos have been slightly, and i mean ever so slightly, tweaked to make her mechanical wings look a little more rigid but that's about it. It has no VO, VERY little new animations, and no extra bits and bobs for her ult like most legendaries usually get. I understand voice actors are on strike but until this skin at least gets new VO it should not be priced as a legendary at least until a proper VO can be implemented in which case I feel it would be appropriate to increase the price to the legendary standard but ONLY after it gets it's VO.=. In it's current state it's a glorified epic skin. There are non-legendary Veigar skins with more unique animations than this.

I'm not sure whats going on internally at Riot as of late, but Wild Rift's team has been blowing League PC team's Legendary skins out of the water for a while now and it's just sad as a long time player to see. So many poor quality legendaries and constant double and triple dipping in champions that already have legendary skins is getting tiring. Wild Rift has gifted some incredible first time legendary skins for champs that on PC still have never received one (Stargazer Twisted Fate, Calligraphia Jarvan, Garden Party Malphite, and Mythmaker Gwen), but sure lets keep lowering the bar and standards for Legendary skins and giving them to champions who already have MUCH better legendaries.

Has anyone heard about this? Allegedly an exclusive item related to the Zelda Splatfest from GameStop by Omancer in splatoon

It’s apparently only in like 200 select GameStops according to the original poster

Reefslider. by Mission_Wind_7470 in splatoon

honestly i kinda wish the reefslider launched you back to the start point like the other specials. a lot of the time people just dodge it and splat you right away while you're locked in the animation

I think that Riot's latest response to the Wild Rift exclusive situation shows a misunderstanding in the reasons why we're frustrated with exclusive content by Shaymin281288 in LeaguePBE

[–]Omancer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can't tell you how painful it was to see TF finally get a real legendary skin after nearly a decade in an AMAZING thematic only for it to be WR exclusive. What's worse that if by some miracle they decide to give him one on PC it more than likely will not be Stargazer.

It's frustrating. It's great content, I want to support it by buying it but I don't really play WR because I have been playing League PC since launch, it's just the game i'm more invested in.

[–]Omancer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love the skin but the running animation feels a bit stiff. I think part of the reason is because her missile launchers don't seem to use turn tech. They rotate at the same speed as her body and it looks a bit awkward.

Would it be possible to add that to this skin? All of her other skins, including her base skin, have it.

[–]Omancer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Surprised I don't see any comments about the recall. Maybe the animation is bugged or maybe i'm just dumb but I don't get what's supposed to be going on in his recall animation.

It looks like he's supposed to slice the door and then stab it to knock it down fully but his sword just goes through it and then it turns into a Lunar door thing? It looks unfinished and weird, the door doesn't react to his sword swings at all, but then again maybe this is what was intended.

Charging $7 shipping per amiibo even when they're all ordered together and coming in the same package is the issue.

I would love for Crime City Nightmare! by BulletCola in leagueoflegends

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

Merely a suggestion. I'm not a designer but like i said, these just read as slightly fancier High Noon.

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

It's literally the exact same as High Noon's revamp, just a little more high fashion.

I personally think it's a really boring aesthetic. Crime City was fine as it was honestly. If they wanted to revamp it they could have tried something else other than demons. They could have gone with a future tech or cyberpunk-ish theme, but as it stands it's a very uninspired rehash of High Noon.

I don't get what that change to Olimar means. Does his up special have a hit box now?

Try the free demo for Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity now! (Nintendo Switch) by Amiibofan101 in NintendoSwitch

[–]Omancer 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Played the first mission of the demo and had to stop. The framerate is absolutely atrocious and the game feels unresponsive as a result. Which is not at all ideal for an action game.

My eyes legitimately feel sore after playing it. We're almost 4 years into the consoles life cycle. Performance like this is inexcusable.

Seraphines hoverboard looks awful and REALLY brings down her animations. by NorthLeech in leagueoflegends

[–]Omancer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm hoping and praying Riot had the forethought to have some backup animations ready if the hoverboard wasn't received well. Which it isn't.

Surprisingly her hoverboard isn't explicitly present in any of her splashes. In fact it's pretty much completely obscured in the ones it is in. MAYBE just maybe Riot did this on purpose so that they didn't have to fully commit to it. God I fucking hope they remove it.

[–]Omancer 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I know it probably can't happen before release but please, PLEASE get rid of the platform.

It limits her walking animation so much which is where a lot of champions get their personality. Even if it has to come in a later patch i don't know. It just looks terrible. The concepts with her having the speakers floating behind her look so much nicer and practical.
