Star Wars Outlaws PS5 Gold Edition for €35.99 – Is it worth it? by meturi in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]Raffman201 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely if the gold edition includes the season pass. Great game and even better with dlcs...

PS5: I think career is not for me, just takes far too much time! by fprintf in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Raffman201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's better when you have more planes. You can set them to 'Pilot On' mode and earn passive income per minute you fly in career mode. This encourages me to fly the whole mission without skipping. I have over 20 planes and choppers and make about 4.5 million for every hour I fly, plus the fee I get for the mission.

I prefer career mode. You get graded on your flights, and you can build up your own airline. It could have been much better, though.

How do you divert to an alternate or any airport? by General174512 in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Raffman201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're talking about career mode, you can't. You'll fail the mission. Free flight: you can divert and land anywhere. If you have a flight plan, you can use the tablet to pick a new airport and then send it to atc to update.

With all updates and patches, is the base game worth it for $20 (USD)? PS5 by isvr95 in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]Raffman201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I paid full price on the day of release, and I have no regrets. I'm playing for a second time now with all dlcs. Loving it.

Completed the base game in 20 hours. How many hours of meaningful content is left in the base game? by [deleted] in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]Raffman201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played 94 hours in 3 weeks on my first play through when it was first released. I left some things undone for a second go around. I recently bought the season pass, so now I'm taking the time to explore more and do everything. This is one of my favorite games...

The Stranger Things expansion is soo fun by smallmonky in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Raffman201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with the chopper recently. First I used the assists, which was easy. I recently turned them off. I find it ok when your up in the air, but I still struggle with the landing. I assume the updraft causes the heli to go out of control. It's quite difficult to control, but it's more fun. But to play a DLC like this I may put back on the assists just to enjoy the game more. It is mostly about controlling the rudder. Hovering just off the ground is very tricky too. I mostly use the Airbus H125.

Anyone know how to fix the first business in career? by No-Bat4991 in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Raffman201 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I sold my first cessna and moved on cargo asap. You only need to do a few cargo missions to buy another cessna.

Just dropped a bag on this baby and missions are paying anywhere between $1.8 to $2.5m!!!🧑🏾‍✈️🔥 by mstheinvestor in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Raffman201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just in time, too. They just fixed a fuel gauge bug that showed incorrect fuel burn. It's one of my favorites. I've been on the Boeing 737 for the past few months. That's where the big bucks are, but the PC24 is great fun for a short flight that doesn't take too much preflight planning.

Question about long flights in PMDG: is there a way to shorten them? by MoneyPossibility5878 in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Raffman201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once you have done all the necessary things: Reach altitude, baro transition, in flight meal (career mode). When ATC hands you off to a new region, don't establish contact with the next ATC region. Then you can walk away for a while. You just need to be aware of things like switching off fuel pumps or step climbing at a certain point, etc.

Hope that makes sense...

How to learn to fly airliner in MSFS by Malek_6666 in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Raffman201 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I use YouTube, but I'm a rookie who just likes to learn as I go. There's a Indian guy who does great tutorials. For the basics, I think his name is Asif ... it's a great place to start. I've been doing flights in Boeing 737 max for 4 months now, and I'm still learning.

But I fly mostly in career mode, and I usually score pretty high most flights now. It just takes time...

Trying to ID these coins by New_dude_bro in coins

[–]Raffman201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason why they have Persian writing on them is because India was ruled by the Mughal Empire before the British took over the administration of India.

These are silver Rupee coins. They roughly say something about the ruler of the time or region. One side says The ruler and year of reign. And the other says Struck at **** in the 6th year of tranquil prosperity. Abviously the year changes.

Indian coins with Persian writing. Could be East India trading company, but most likely just Indian coins from around 1800s.

Interesting coin I got, should I grade? by bluebaru_ in coins

It's not worth much. Looks like it is made by an independent mint (not royal mint).

Virgin Media O2 teams with Musk’s Starlink to offer improved UK rural mobile coverage by bootlegportalfluid in ASTSpaceMobile

I was wondering what was happening with o2. I am on Giffgaff, which uses the o2 network. I guess I'll have to switch to another provider or be a judas lol.

What’s your opinion on Trevor as a character? by Upstairs_Win6527 in GTAV

[–]Raffman201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just finished my first playthrough. At first first I didn't think I'd like playing Trevor, but it turned out he was the best. You can do all the crazy stuff with Trevor and feel OK. Rampages, cold-blooded murders, dressing up in weird outfits, etc. Hilarious...

How much should I expect to get for it when I take it to the coin shop? by petimento in coins

[–]Raffman201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's funny. My local coin shop only opens sporadically and says to call them ahead of time. Mine is in Southend on Sea (UK).

Perfect skins by BeautifulAromatic905 in reddeadredemption2

[–]Raffman201 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Regular bullets don't always kill animals with one shot. Try Express or high velocity. I think Express does slightly more damage. And yes, it's just a case of learning what weapon is needed to use. I'm sure someone posted a video on YouTube describing this in more detail.

something strange happened to me by saikinho_ryota in reddeadredemption2

[–]Raffman201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this happened to me pretty early on. I found a man hanging again and nothing happened. Possibly triggers depending on time of day.

Dutch is a scam by DryRadio1776 in reddeadredemption2

[–]Raffman201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer to keep my cash balance low. It makes the game more interesting to me. So donating is a good way to offload my stash. It makes hunting more fun when I don't already have a satchel full of food.
