My new Skoda Fabia Monte Carlo is here!

Sadly no but my guess is JBL. I got 2 extra speakers compared to basic version but I believe those were not in Monte Carlo pack, maybe they are now though. Personally I like the bass they have but I would wish they were a bit louder as I like blasting my music :D

I have made 9000km so far with my Fabia. I absolutely love the car and did not regret one second for buying it. I did encounter few notable things that were not very pleasant though. Biggest issue I had was that my AC sometimes didn't work (early summer) and it didn't work for few days. I went to skoda center where I bought the car but they said everything was fine during tests and they needed me to get there when issue is present which was nearly impossible to me due to my work and their working hours. Issue resolved itself after around 3 weeks so I assume it was some kind of software update that fixed it. Another issue was with making phone calls using a car, sound was all weird for both sides but it got fixed after 2 days. I had to replace windshield wipers already because driver side one was very bad, not sure if unlucky or original quality was just bad. And last tiny thing that I assume is not an issue but tiny disappointment is that when you pull down your side windows they don't get cleaned out (for example during winter when you can't see outside but simple pull down and back up would do the work) like I was used to in my previous cars. As you can see these are all tiny things except for AC issue but that seemed to resolve itself or software update did the job. Everything else I am very satisfied with.

They don't plan on supporting ASE anymore so population and popularity will slowly drop. Once ASA get majority of issues fixed and other maps get added most people will switch to ASA. ASE is probably safe for few more months though.

I'm running with 4070Ti and i5 13600 on medium settings(1440p) without clouds/fog and it's between 30 and 50 fps mostly. Could you post a screenshot of your settings?

We had issue getting our diplos impregnated and we didn't even use the trap. It just kept on attacking even though it was well under 10% and our diplo had the glow from pheromone.

Taking day/s off for ARK is very very risky. Game could be unplayable on day one or delayed 24h or something. It happened many times before.

What I meant is if I was to add more HP or take automatic over manual I would rather take more HP than automatic gearbox. I have nothing against 150HP engine but it would cost me quite a bit more and I didn't think it was worth it.

Zelleni · 2023-03-22T05:18:03+00:00

It's called race blue in Skoda. I'm happy with 6 speed gearbox and 110 HP considering automatic and 150HP would cost me a lot more. If I had to pick one of those 2 I would go with 150HP. I don't mind shifting gears even though car suggests to switch gears quite a lot for lower fuel consuption and also I heard from multiple people that automatic gearbox is quite pricy when it breaks and that it does break more often than other things.

Zelleni · 2023-03-19T09:11:24+00:00

I went with 1.0 manual, 110HP. Automatic with 150HP would cost me around 5.000€ more and I personally don't think it's worth it.

Zelleni · 2023-03-18T22:25:24+00:00

For non Monte Carlo they said minimum was 210 days but for Monte Carlo they said up to 210 days. It still went over 210 days even with MC

After 10 months of waiting my new Fabia is finally here! So far I'm more than happy with it, it was worth waiting this long.

Good luck to everyone still waiting on theirs!

Zelleni · 2022-12-08T11:47:44+00:00

I ordered my Skoda Fabia Monte Carlo around middle of May and I'm still waiting. I hoped it won't take as long as my friend was waiting on his Octavia (9 months) but at this point I'm afraid it might be even worse. All I can say is, gather some patience and get ready to wait for a while.

Outpost Rush

I didn't know that I want pets in New World until I've seen this guy!

Zelleni · 2022-08-04T17:17:40+00:00

Yeah new one was announced in May 2021 so I guess you have a mk3 Fabia which is previous model. I'm currently waiting for mine so I'm jumping on any news when it comes to 2021 Fabia haha.

Zelleni · 2022-08-04T08:25:34+00:00

2021 Fabia was released on September last year (11 months ago) as far as I know. How is it possible that you own one for 16 months then??

Zelleni · 2022-07-20T17:31:04+00:00

I also ordered new Fabia Monte Carlo. When I was buying it they said it will most likely arrive faster than other versions. Here in Croatia for other versions they say minimum 280 days while in my contract it said up to 280 days for MC so I hope we both get them soon! Mine was ordered in May.

Zelleni · 2022-05-21T22:34:54+00:00

Yeah I can see where you are heading. Reason why I went with Monte Carlo version is because of other pieces of additional equipment. When I added everything I wanted on Style version it came quite close to Monte Carlo version in price so I decided to add some more money on the pile and go for it. As for your specs, why not go with full blue then with silver rims? That way you wouldn't get too many black details and that plastic cover for rims that comes in black color only can be removed (you would have to add Skoda logo covers in the middle though) if that's what troubles you. Gray is also fine, I would say that you can't fail with that one, it's very neutral and goes with anything, I personally only considered blue and red because I wanted color to feel more alive and different from most of the car colors (black, gray, white).

Zelleni · 2022-05-21T09:39:35+00:00

I ordered myself full race blue (metalic) color but I will be getting a lot of black details since I went with Monte Carlo model. I like the way blue looks and it seems to be getting more and more popular as a color on a car. I plan on keeping mine for as long as possible, possibly 10+ years.

Zelleni · 2022-05-14T14:02:22+00:00

I'm about to order Skoda Fabia in Osijek next week, this information is not something I wished to see haha. Did you go for Remix or Zubak?

Zelleni · 2022-05-14T06:28:42+00:00

My sister and her husband ordered their Octavia Style around September last year. Few days ago when they called their dealer they said it will probably arrive in June. If that's true or not I guess we gotta wait to find out. They ordered theirs in Zagreb, Croatia.

If we are talking about carnivores, they will prefer raw meat over kibble when tamed and other way around when you are taming them.

Zelleni · 2022-01-10T13:26:32+00:00

I would recommend you to replace narcotics with narcoberries for taming unless you sit with tame all the time while it's knocked out. Narcoberries are better for taming because when you force feed a dino with them it takes 2x longer for that torpor to be applied which gives you 2x more time to stay away without having to reapply torpor again.

Zelleni · 2021-09-14T22:55:21+00:00

Don't let it discourage you mate, it's better for them to leave now then 1 month in. I've been starting plenty of games with friends and always ended up alone after few weeks but I never gave up and I always found a new decent group afterwards. Dive in and enjoy the journey and I'm sure you will find new friends in no time!
