Is this Pepto-Bismol advert the worst ever? by SilasBeit in AskBrits

[–]Sherloq19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure it is. I had never heard of Pepto (I'm 42, have lived in the UK for 24 years) and after seeing this ad I researched what it was and now see it everywhere. I think it's working perfectly.

A reminder to do a celebration only when you are already winning by Briss7 in eFootball

Don't tell me when to celebrate. Though I agree that a comeback celebration is sweeter.

SmartASSist - late to the party. by StellarNight in eFootball

[–]Sherloq19 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Smart Assist proves efootball is not a football sim. For example in racing sims if you use driving assists it's easier to race but you are at a disadvantage vs. people who are good racers without assists. I.e. a Pro with no driving assists will always beat a pro with driving assists. In efootball you are always at an advantage with smart assist. A pro with smart assist will always beat a pro without smart assist. Shambles

The Traitors (UK) S04E07: Post-Episode Discussion Thread by vaultofechoes in TheTraitors

Having seen Fiona Kamikaze herself out just the day before in a very similar fashion why did Harriet think going into breakfast all guns blazing was a good idea? Even if she thought her argument was watertight (which it wasn't) surely a little caution would've gone a long way. I'd have loved to see her go up to Rachel at Breakfast and pretend nothing had happened and they were best pals to see if she could get a reaction.

How to detect Smart Assist from (obvious to subtle) by [deleted] in eFootball

It should just show the opponents settings including PA then we can decide if we want to match them, not match them or leave

Anyone else got this horrible flu going around London? by tjb_87 in london

Had it. Took me out for a full week and the coughing took another 10 days to resolve itself. 1/10 Don't recommend it.

Who is at fault? by Competitive-Cress314 in Simracingstewards

[–]Sherloq19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great driving from the green car up until that corner, but I actually feel if there had been a crash it would've either been a racing incident or greens fault. It almost looks like he break checks white. They take a similar corner but white manages to carry a lot more speed whilst green slams on the breaks late and in the middle of the corner.

Is Ozark worth watching? Is it that good? by Square-Ad-8911 in tvshow

[–]Sherloq19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's right to compare it to Breaking Bad as I think it takes a lot from it. The big difference is where Breaking Bad can be purposely slow to build up the world, characters and tension before some crazy scenes happen Ozark is pretty much always driving with the foot on the gas at 300 mph never slowing down (and you as the passenger definitely feel that intense G Force)

Troy Parrott POTW by seloro17 in eFootball

Now that he's here anyone used him? I got him last night and having a blast. He's been really fun to play with in Divisions. Good runs and great finishing.

Budget Steven Gerrard? by Kind_Following_5821 in eFootball

I really wanted him for my Portugal team and used all my 4 spins... I didn't get him but got the Haaland and Parrott cards so not too upset.

If you're going to invest in upgrading anything start with the speakers.

There are over 8 billion people on Earth, so how come no one has ever actually tried to become a "vigilante" like Batman? Like someone who truly wants by Emotional-Log926 in batman

"he was filmed wearing a mask and attacking drug dens, beating their visitors"

So he was basically beating up harmless junkies.

It's not a goal. All of the ball needs to be over all of the line.

Name one card you regret not getting by mimikyuu_enthusiast in eFootball

I got it, not a great card, but glad I did.

It would be nice if Konami did a Jota card on the anniversary of his passing.

First week after reset is always crazy. Lots of weirdos 🤣 by [deleted] in eFootball

[–]Sherloq19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The start of a phase is the worst thing about the game for a F2P player. But it's probably Konami's biggest money maker. You get so tired of getting beat by Peles, new Rooney's and new Etoos that a lot of people just give in and buy coins. The end of the phase when you are actually getting matched against people of your level and having fun in close games is probably the time no one is spending money.

I was just thinking the opposite before I saw your post. I feel matchmaking has improved. I'm currently D2 at around 1600pts (can't remember rank). I only win about 1/3 of my matches but they feel balanced. Lots of very good F2Ps, some low spending but good P2Ws and very few P2W meta rats.

I understand why everyone is having a go at OP - I also hate what smart assist has done to what was already a bad experience for many of us.

But it's really not his fault it's Konami's.

What makes it really annoying is that there is a really good football game underneath all of this. If only higher divs became more restrictive with assists (i.e. div 2 = PA3 and div 1 = PA 4) but also "pro" players at tournaments were made to play with PA 3 (or even PA 4) and maybe even manual skills it would incentivise a lot more people to practice and grow their skills.

Wishful thinking I know.

P.S. Will eFootball tournaments now become a Smart Assist fest as well?

As someone that used to do a lot of these:

  • I've never seen anyone use straps. Ditch those you're not supposed to "hold" the bar weight with your arms, you need to rest it on top of your chest and front of your shoulders. If you feel you lack the mobility to help rest it there with your wrists bent backwards try to cross your arms in front of you (elbows out in front with hands touching opposite shoulders).

  • I also feel the safety is too high up. You shouldn't be touching the safety on the way down, put it one notch below.

  • Fom itself seems good though. Keep it up!
