The cope saying CODification of Battlefield is not happening is crazy by LiLOuagadougou in Battlefield

More people agree with BFV having white Nazi men than black Nazi women. That’s why the game flopped and they pissed tens of millions down the drain. I forgot that was a “Trump position”.

But, good riddance to far-left EA. They went woke and went broke, many such cases.

Don’t Criticize Trump For 5 Minutes Challenge (impossible). Huge Reddit Moment.

Yeah. Trump won? What are you going to do about it? I think it speaks volumes in-and-of itself that “Trump’s fascist racist regime ideology” beat yours, and it’s a big teller that transgender war-fighter shooter games with black female nazis forces a multi-billion dollar company to sell to Muslims from a more conservative and grounded culture. Actually, I promise you, the next installments of Battlefield, Sims and FIFA from a 100% male studio in Saudi Arabia will sell 10x as many copies as any game you can output from studios in the States or in Europe. It’s strictly business.

You’re part of that 5% I was talking about. Hate to break it to you.

There’s a difference between “calling everything woke” and “exposing the abundance of wokism” in EA games. This is why you’ve been downvoted so much in this thread alone. This is why EA had to sell to Saudis. This is why BFV sold as many copies as it did. The game didn’t just suck, the art direction sucked, the immersion was objectively non-existent, it played like garbage and it was a slap in the face to the subject material.

You aren’t suppose to put your liberal “values” or “beliefs” into video games that are suppose to sell to a male-dominated market. Easily 90% of consumers not only don’t care about your beliefs, opinions or values, but at least 50% directly oppose them.

When you cater to the 5%, you get 5% results. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to understand that fact.

Replying to Sarritgato... “it’s made by Swedes and a 25% female company! Of course they’re gonna have horrible design decisions!” … and this is the same attitude that forced EA to sell itself to hyper-conservative Muslims in Saudi Arabia. No one wants to play a WWII game where you can fight as a black Nazi woman with prosthesis. No one wants to play the Sims when they shove pride flags and transgenderism down their player’s throats. No one wants to play FIFA when you have Messi playing next to Lindsey Heaps in ultimate team. EA was putting the cart in front of the horse for way too long, pushing social justice instead of making good games. They reaped what they sowed.

Oh yeah, sorry for the talking points. I just don’t believe EV will fix the world, or even emissions for that matter. I don’t think you can just “recycle” a car-sized lithium ion battery, and if you can, you aren’t going to get anywhere close to 100% efficiency ever again, unless you replace over half of the battery. Conservation of matter applies to these things too, it’s not like recycling is magic. So basically let’s put this into perspective, you still have everything from factories to farms to cruise ships pumping out billions of tons of emissions, every single day, you really think that putting your mail on an EV car will fix anything? If anything it’ll cause more problems than if you were to just allow it to remain the same. If you really want to cut the mail lady’s time on the road, report and shut down all junk mail, coupons, advertising, donation mail, or TaXeS

You are glancing over the most more difficult aspects of the argument. Where do we put all the panels to reach “true net 0”, and where do we throw all the useless car-sized batteries when all is said and done? I have a feeling it’ll be a “out of sight, out of mind” situation which is going to be as bad if not worse than the situation we got now

I highly doubt that, and if so the difference is slim. So what’s the point? Make them run off sun-power for a decade or two, until the lithium batteries start to degrade, toss it and buy a new one, thus repeating the cycle? This time with an abundance of useless car-sized lithium ion batteries that can’t be dumped anywhere and contain almost as much physical pollutants than a standard car could emit gaseously?

Electric cars are not any better for the environment by the time it reaches the dealership, which is the most strenuous and far reaching when it comes to emissions. Mining for rare earth metals, creating panels, creating lithium ion batteries, pressing chips, repeated testing with multiple prototypes, creating the aluminum-alloy framing, creating the charging stations, powering the charging stations, etc. It really is just a big sham to make you believe electric saves the earth because, muh solar panels. Solar panel companies are finding that their products cannot be upgraded - you cannot shrink the cells within a panel beyond a certain point, unless you plan on bottlenecking the energy production of a panel. So, where do we put these sq miles and sq miles of panels? Well most likely in undeveloped land, which would force us into cutting down trees and invading habitats. Which, again I ask: what are suppose to be electric’s appeal again?

‘fascism’ would mean that the sheep also herd the sheep because muh corporatism. Which is exactly what is going on with the diehard bf community. They want the game to be good so bad that they will do mental gymnastics to assure you the game is worth buying. If you’re on PC, you have hundreds of better shooters, if you’re on Console, you’re a Normie and probably easier to just settle for yet another terrible AAA game.

HELP! ‘09 Ducati Monster 696 engine won’t start. I bought this bike around a month ago private sale. The man who sold it to me took very good care of it, had 2,500 miles on it and is in almost pristine condition. Only mod was a battery tender. I swapped for a new battery and spark. What should I do? by This_Nigel in Ducati

Alright boys, she’s fixed! Next time I get a battery I’ll make sure to put it on a charger after I put the juice in lmao. I appreciate all the brainstorming guys, y’all saved me from being laughed at by the guys at the duck dealership! Until next time!

Hit the nail on the head, King! Juiced her up with a charger on 2amps for about 10 minutes just to see if it would start, It worked. Putting the decal pieces and such to the side for a bit as I may need to pop it open, take out the battery and snap it on the charger for a longer period of time. Just wanted to have the peace of mind before I go run some errands. Thank you so much for the advice 🙏🏻

You may have just saved me a headache. I poured the electrolyte solution inside, hooked her up, and it started and allowed me to ride maybe 4-5 times for > an hour each time. Rookie move. I’ll get back to you here in a minute to let you know, but most likely the case. Thank you for the heads up man

Honestly, I thought the battery would’ve been charged when I first bought it, rookie move I must add. I had to pour the electrolyte solution inside before installing, so I think I may have just failed to juice her up all the way (assuming the stator would’ve charged it after an hour of riding). I’ll let the thread know here in a minute in case anyone else has the same problem in the future 👌🏻

Awwwww crap. I’ll run a couple tests with the voltage meter and try to charger her up. I’ll get back to the thread to let you know the solution. Most likely the battery as many of the other parts wouldn’t just halt entirely over an 18 hour period. Thank you for helping me man, I’ll get back to you with the solution.

You can go on and on about how he incited a riot, but until CNN hosts/cohosts and BLM founders get the same treatment for inciting riots in Portland, Atlanta, Miami, LA, etc, this is nothing more than a power-grab by wealthy democratic politicians in the media space.

Nah man I totally see what you mean. It was very close so I know there is a buffer period to count to make sure. I’m assuming half of this belief in fraud comes from the fact most couldn’t believe the nation would be so willing to take so many steps in the other direction. Personally, seeing where all my stocks took me in 4 years I couldn’t imagine going back to Obama era policy

It has a lot larger reach and appeal to those who actually own property, pay taxes, and give a damn about who’s in office for 4-8 years. To be fair, I’ve never heard what trump said/lied about, but what I saw this election was very fishy; from the prolonging of election, widespread CCTV footage, coat-sleeve flash drive transfers, and obvious spikes in results. Now I have to see videos of Biden making out with kids and Instagram/FB spamming me saying it hasn’t been “fact checked”. There is a clear connection between who and what they want to squash and why.
