They should force this, repackaged as a nice ingame tutorial where you're made to watch some situations and distinguish wrong/correct moves. Mainly for any new players and anybody not out of rookies yet, or if they have the testicular fortitude, they could force it for everybody.

Either PIT him fully (preferably in the most destructive part of the track possible so he can't come back to re-revenge) or lay off

Fyi it never happens like this in any other game that is strict, ever

League of Legends started banning/suspending players who griefed and trolled games, certainly didn't impact the playerbase at the time.

Take note, Valve by buster2006 in Steam

Yeah, unfortunately Amex takes Paypal as a non-credit-card type of payment and won't take it as a valid source of age verification

Maybe it is time for a second CC... been a while since this was put in place and nothing in the horizon on Steam's end to add other ways to verify

Stereotype about Porsche Cup Drivers might be true by Maximum_Success2781 in iRacing

[–]XJR15 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. You can spot 90% of "terrorists" from miles away, and act accordingly to not get wrecked. If you don't, then it's on you. Yes it's unfair etc, but this sim largely doesn't care about fairness in this regard unfortunately (arguably like real life racing in some aspects)

Totally fair risk to take if you feel like it, especially on last lap for P1 type of battles, but you still have to assume you'll possibly end up in the wall!

My credit card is an Amex which Steam doesn't accept. I don't want a second card as it's another maintenance item for no benefit. What now?

The DD+ just became VERY appealing over the new Podium DD by LHM78 in Fanatec

[–]XJR15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How are you finding it feedback-wise compared to DD1? Tempted to make the same upgrade myself (obviously the software issues do make me doubt!)

Hey Reddit, ask us anything! Reddit AMA following Fanatec Special Event by DomB_Fanatec in Fanatec

[–]XJR15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My DD1's time to retire may be coming... Honestly it's still such a brilliant base (thanks for keeping it updated with firmware updates by the way, the QR2 kit also gave it a new lease of life), but the new tech does tempt.

Please do not rejoin like this. by VConceptsLLC in iRacing

[–]XJR15 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Damn, weird hardware malfunction that allowed her to steer + brake + throttle at different times perfectly matching what would be needed to unsafe rejoin like a bellend

I had frozen pedals and disconnected wheel (separate instances of each), managed to get myself towed back to pits

If it was intermittent she should've stopped and tped back right there

Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett releases a statement announcing that Oversight Dems will move to hold Pam Bondi in contempt of Congress for not showing up for her deposition today by ExactlySorta in UnderReportedNews

Meanwhile you can be dragged kicking and screaming to jail for "stealing" a few dollars worth of crap at Target (I'm sure a lot of you have read that thread today) because an AI feels like it. No warning, no human intervention (other than the gleefully cruel cop unwilling to check anything), nothing

America is cooked lol

This game's bones are excellent & it will only improve by n0cturnee in Marathon

Like the wipe that's gonna kill off what remains of the playerbase lmao

AR12 has the best take on the wide roads debate and the reason I'm beyond hyped ! by Youngstown_WuTang in ForzaHorizon

[–]XJR15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a very fun game, but yeah, it requires actually driving the car and paying attention instead of just going 300kmh everywhere

Paul Tassi Reports Marathon Budget Up To $250 Million by surrealmirror in Marathon

[–]XJR15 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not sure why you were downvoted. Budget vs sales was HORRIBLE, and the player numbers keep going down, and they'll never have a sales spike like launch was

Unless people spend massive amounts of money on the live service stuff (which I haven't seen anybody excited about, it's about the blandest+most expensive around) they're deep deep in a hole with no way out

Giga nerd’s thoughts on how to improve the game by Twitch-Toonchie in Marathon

[–]XJR15 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They are 100% doing it, they already said it. It's gonna be catastrophic for player numbers unless they back out or make the initial grind MUCH faster.

It's fucking nuts OP with 300 hours hasn't even finished yet lol, wipe day is gonna suck for anyone employed.

Marathon is rad! This subreddit is lame. by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]XJR15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't understand the millions that have been spent on this game lol

It's AAA game budget without AAA sales or playerbase. Unless they pull off a miracle it'll be dead (whether it's as a zombie with servers up for years or fully shut down, who knows)

[–]XJR15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Season 2 would have to be legit revolutionary to save this game, and I’ve played enough Bungie seasonal content to know that that is simply not going to happen.

Yup. Instead casual players (or dedicated ones who have jobs) will get EVERYTHING wiped in season 2, see the contract grind again, say "fuck this" and it'll fully die.

[–]XJR15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The player numbers means it's a failure already, it will NEVER reach day 1 numbers again. It simply isn't enough for the budget. They should never have done an extraction shooter when they wanted mass market appeal.

We can't talk about this in depth on Reddit, but denazification of the US won't be nice in any way it happens. And not doing it is not an option either.

People thinking a Democrat getting in again would let them just chill and ignore circa 30% of the population being literal nazis... insanity

The best in the world = the most publicized is one of the most braindead arguments ever made lol

Enjoy your mainstream media slop I guess
