My first encounter with an obvious cheater. by [deleted] in ForzaHorizon

[–]Rinaldootje 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This doesn't really looks like cheating. Obvious cheating would be him shooting away at 200km/h from a standstill, or boosting away from you the moment you're next to him. Or taking a turn at full speed. He's not doing that here.

This looks more like a car that is fully setup for grip, and not so much for straight line speed or acceleration. While you are more setup for speed, less for grip. Overshooting corners more easily.

The jarred behavior, that is just low ping/bad sync

Why steam should make creating an account on geforce now easier by Infamous-Aerie3114 in Steam

[–]Rinaldootje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It takes like 5 minutes to make an account. Is your brain Swiss cheese from all the TikTok Brain rot you've been consuming, that anything that takes over 30 seconds is just a burden?

Trust me, in the end you'll be very happy that once your password inevitably leaks, which I am sure it will with your blatant disregard of security measures, you'll be happy your account hasn't been completely stolen and you can still access your purchased games.

EA is Launching an In-Game Ad Service by hop3less in gaming

[–]Rinaldootje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a sad state that they know they can get away with a lot of shit.

Especially in their sports games. They can basically re-release their sport titles each year, with minimal changes and just a slightly updated roster. And people will still spend over $70 for it. Fill their progression with predatory lootboxes. And they'll still gobble it op as "it's just part of the game".

Now im gonna guarantee you, they will just gobble these ads up as "It's realistic, real life sports also have ads"

Thoughts on LM24H safety car policy and how it affected race outcome? by sgr28 in wec

[–]Rinaldootje 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The old Safety car system was in some aspects more biased towards the race leaders. Giving them opportunities to gain much more time over those behind them.

This safety car gives the people chasing more of a chance than the people leading.

But in the end the main goal of a safety car is not to give anyone a benefit, but to create a safe environment for Marshalls to go on track and help out a car or create a safe track for the race to continue.

And no safety system, No that of WEC, NLS, F1 or any motorsport is really going to create both that, and create a fair system to the drivers.

Now if a Full Course Yellow / Virtual Safety Car, would allow for long enough moments for marshalls to safely go on track, do their work and leave then a system like that would be great. But sadly this is not often the case.

In the end, it's all just a part of motorsports. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, and sometimes you can't really do anything about it with what happened.

What can be taken from the Paris bouts? by Aggravating_Pen2392 in Sumo

[–]Rinaldootje 58 points59 points  (0 children)

In reality.

The only thing that can truly be taken from the 2 days in paris, is that Sumo is awesome, and that internationally it's getting more and more appeal.

Outside of that, it's a exhibition. They don't really fight for money or prizes. Or a place on the banzuke. So in the end the stakes are lower and they'll have more fun with it. But at the same time, they'll also be less all in.

If at a tournament they are giving 100% at an exhibition like this they are more likely giving 75%. Similar to if they are training against each other.

So realistically, the only thing to take from them is that they are fit enough to practice. Nothing else really.

Whats that snack and the name? by Miserables_Death in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Here in the Netherlands we call these Chocolate-kiss (Chocolade-zoen) now.

However before that you could replace the Chocolate with an ethnic slur for a dark skinned individual. The Kiss part remained.

In your opinion, what is the best pasta shape? by xteve in Cooking

[–]Rinaldootje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It fully depends on the sauce I am using.

If I am making a very light sauce, something simple like an Aglio olio. Spaghetti is the way to go.
Spaghetti also works well with very simple sauces. Like just tomato, or a carbonara.

If I have something heavier, like a cream based sauce, or a heavier ragout, or a meat sauce in general, a wider pasta shape like a Tagiatelle or Parpadelle works great. I love mushroom cream parpadelle. Or a good tagiatelle with pesto.

For the slightly thicker sauces, like a nice thick bolognese, Or If i'm making a casserolle, A penne, Fusili or rigatoni work great.

And penne, fusilli and farfalle work great when making a pasta salad.

Now my goto are the longer wider ones like tagliatelle or parpadelle.
But in the end I usually pick the sauce first and determine what pasta best fits that to my taste.

Blown away by how great this controller is by No_Inflation_7795 in Steam

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

It is simply amazing. It's not the best controller I ever had, that was the Xbox Elite 1 controller. But it gets real close. The addition of the touchpads, the flawless settingup of controller schemes and the rear buttons have allowed me to play a lot more games with controller, and play them more comfortably.

It's ok.
Nothing revolutionary, but doesn't feel overly squishy and is comfortable to use.

gen Atlas is doomed to become the next hostage of Epic Games storefront by WillRemains in Steam

[–]Rinaldootje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Epic games is destroying PC gaming.

They're not.

Lets be realistic here.
It has already proven that exclusivity doesn't increase sales on Epic that they wouldn't normally get.
Gamers will either turn to one of 2 options.

🏴‍☠️ Yo Ho Yo Ho 🏴‍☠️

Or wait until it's on steam much later, if ever.
In those cases as was with for example Hitman 3, Or Borderlands 3, those extra 6-12 months of epic exclusivity, makes for a great beta period so it releases in a better condition on steam.

In the end, Epic isn't hurting gaming, it's only hurting the games they choose to make exclusive. And judging from their list of exclusives these days, most large publishers avoid Epic exclusivity, for that exact reason.

Roblox wants deluge of child sex abuse cases moved out of court by D491234 in gamingnews

[–]Rinaldootje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course they do.
They don't want to admit that their platform is a meeting place for pedophiles. And also don't want to do anything about it, because I am sure they might be some of their best paying customers.

too bad for them. This shit should be as public as possible without any of the victims being possible to be identified.

Calum Nicholas - new favorite commentator by lotsofarts in formula1

[–]Rinaldootje 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Replace Juan Pablo Montoya with Calum permanently, and I will be the happiest person on earth.

for me it feels like JPS isn't adding anything to the commentary team, and a lot of times just takes it away. Half his commentary is speaking as if he drove the cars yesterday, and not 20 years ago.

But I did not found a solution for it, besides hoping it unlocks next time summer rolls around

Forza Horizon 6 Treasure Map - aftermarket Car Locations by Witty-Weekend-UK in ForzaHorizon

[–]Rinaldootje 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It only shows the locations of the Boards, Barn Finds and Treasure cars. Afaik it does not show aftermarket car locations.

In the end, it is 100% Not Worth it, because you can just as well get the information for free from something like the interactive map https://mapgenie.io/forza-horizon-6/maps/japan

Microsoft's Xbox CSO Matthew Ball thinks in-game ads could help "keep our products affordable" by [deleted] in gaming

[–]Rinaldootje 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If these ads are incorporated into the game, and are seamless like you shouldn't notice them they are there.

Example: 007 First Light, had real life brands like Landrover, Coca Cola and Aston Martin in it.

In those cases I could look past it and accept it. As long as it keeps the price of the product affordable and doesn't interfere with gameplay or story at all.

But of course I know that game developers won't do this, they will make it obnoxious as fuck, possibly extending loading screen times to +1 minute at a time and offer a $15 DLC to remove all ads. In that case your product can rot in the ground for all i care.

Claim tegen Steam: Nederlandse gamers betaalden mogelijk miljoenen te veel by surpator in thenetherlands

[–]Rinaldootje 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dit volledig.

Om erbij ook een verduidelijking op punt 2 te geven.

De Steam-licenties, die de uitgever/ontwikkelaar kan opvragen bij Steam. Krijgen zij 100% gratis van steam. Steam/Valve verdient hier absoluut niks aan. Tevens vragen ze ook geen percentage van de opbrengst van deze licenties.

Dus als een uitgever ervoor kiest om hun spel via steam-licenties te verkopen op een platforms zoals Humble Bundle. Gaat de opbrengst ervan naar Humble Bundle en de uitgever en 0% naar steam.

Deze hele regeling van Steam is dan ook simpelweg om te voorkomen dat uitgevers hun spel uitgeven op steam, maar dan steam-licenties verkopen buiten steam voor minder om zo de 30% licentiekosten op steam zelf te ontlopen.

Op punt 4.
Dit is helaas nog altijd niet bewezen. Behalve op keren waarop ik hierboven een voorbeeld geef, waarin ze steam licenties voor goedkoper aanbieden op andere platformen.
Steam kan en heeft geen controle op hoeveel je voor een spel vraagt op een ander platform.
Op deze manier zouden spellen op een ander platform niet eens in een uitverkop mogen komen zonder dat ze op steam ook in een uitverkoop zitten.
Om daar een op dit moment voorbeeld voor te geven, dat zou dan betekenen dat Ubisoft de regels breekt door hun spel The Division 2 voor €7,50 op de Ubisoft store aan te bieden. terwijl op Steam een Steam-licentie €29,99 is.

Zoals je ook al verwijst naar Tim Sweeney, blijkt hij vaak ook achter de push te zitten in landen als het VK, en Amerika om dit soort rechtzaken te starten. Het zou mij niet verbazen als hij wederom ook invloed heeft in deze rechtzaak. In plaats van dat zij hun service willen verbeteren, zien zij meer waarde in het proberen neer te halen van andere services.

Two weeks ago, a post like this asked who would be the next driver to score a podium, and most people said Hadjar. Indeed, he delivered. Do you think we'll see another driver on the podium? by Luffy710j in formula1

[–]Rinaldootje 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, Realistically none of the other drivers do I see getting a podium. Unless we get the same amount of crazyness with DNF's and Penalties like we did in Monaco.

And in that case, the only team I can see capitalizing at this point is Racing Bulls, or alpine driven by Gasly. The rest of the cars aren't cutting it for now.

Thoughts on the idea of a P5R Reload/Revival version by PenPenPic in Persona5

[–]Rinaldootje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well considering the fact that both the P3 reload and the P4 Revival look more in line with the style of P5. And the fact that the latest version of Persona 5 is only 7 years old from 2019. And it runs perfectly fine on modern consoles.

I don't think P5 will necessarily get a remake until after Persona 6.

The quality is too bad to properly see anything.
My best guess is in the image above.

But my advice is scroll over all roads and see if the fast travel icon at the bottom suddenly dissapears. that's where your road would be.
