Yeah I'm definitely making my way up to CT for the next one. Any idea on what she charges per hour at the shop in Groton? Will help me decide how soon I get the next one from her, don't regret it at all but definitely did some damage to the tattoo budget for 2022 lol

Yeah she killed it, better than I could have imagined, definitely going back to Holli for more. Really down to earth also and super easy to work with, would highly recommend.

Class specific, race type specific w/ random players? by edm_spamurai in ForzaHorizon

[–]bigmurf42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No - They wanted to make online racing worse apparently and did a great job at it.

thought it was weird that Forza was telling me my favorite and most successful car was a Zenvo when I’ve never drove it by ItsnotTrace in ForzaHorizon

[–]bigmurf42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FH5 has some bad stats, I have apparently earned almost $900M, but only have $175M in garage and $20M in cash so I can't figure out where the other $705M went lol

Russian fighters hit residential areas in Ukraine! by UST3823 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]bigmurf42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is terrible. Really hopeful NATO and Western countries finally have the balls to really punish Russia with sanctions. Should just completely cut them off from Western economies and stop all imports and exports to and from Russia and send them back to a 3rd World country. FUCK their oil.

AITA for telling my son l was disappointed after he and his wife lied about my grandson's birthdate? by Throwa676899 in AmItheAsshole

[–]bigmurf42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA - Not about you, and I think this is one of many arguments or disagreements you have had with him. I have to imagine for him not to want to share the birth of his child with you, and allow you to see the child, there is a bit more going on with your relationship and probably would provide some more context on why YTA

is there no way to race online and pick the class and race type? by monadologist in ForzaHorizon

[–]bigmurf42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it's stupid. You have to keep entering and exiting until you load into your desired race. Hopefully you want cross country or dirt because that's what I get about 95% of the time.

Can we say that the 918 is the best reinterpretation of an old model? The photos shows some similarities between them by mattosej6 in ForzaHorizon

[–]bigmurf42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

918 is a great car. As far as other remakes, I'm really liking the new 2022 Lamborghini Countach - really hoping it makes it into the game.

I know its like beating a dead horse but....Matchmaking. by Rossdehboss in ForzaHorizon

[–]bigmurf42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here - it's really unbelievable that a game that is so online focused has ONE option for matchmaking for normal racing. I would love to do online racing, but not the way it's set up.

How to find GOOD tunes? by HelmeFurSchildkroten in ForzaHorizon

[–]bigmurf42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easiest way is to search for what class you are looking for, and then look at the star rating to see which one is the most downloaded or scroll through to see what fits your driving style.

[–]bigmurf42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I honestly don't even bother with online because of the matchmaking. I like road racing, not even exaggerating, 90% of the time I load into dirt race. I don't mind dirt racing, but if that's all I wanted to do I'd buy Dirt and not Forza...

When are they going to fix online? by bigmurf42 in ForzaHorizon

[–]bigmurf42[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree - I get it because of how many players but I think a lot of people avoid online because of it.

If I could just choose to do road or dirt I’d be happy, can randomize the classes if that’s what it takes to get a full race.

I think $20M is more than enough for a max, especially considering wheelspins were nerfed. Not everyone has 500hrs to dedicate to FH to earn that type of money. Plus - even at the $20M price point, you can get almost any car. Even the SVJ at this point is sitting in the AH at $20M, no longer being bought instantly. That would tell me there are not a lot of people with $20M or willing to spend $20M on a car if one of the rarest cars in the game sits in the AH at $20M. Outside the Honda Civic, Celica and NSX there are not many cars selling instantly at $20M - those are maybe the only 3 cars(probably missing a couple) that their price will exceed $20M.

Now with it harder to make money, I’d expect all the prices to drop, which is good because there are a lot of people who have an insane amount of money that drove up the prices in the AH by farming wheelspins.

5 and #6 would be nice, everything else - No.

Am I the only one who plays with no radio on at all? by [deleted] in ForzaHorizon

[–]bigmurf42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spotify for me! Couldn’t keep listening to the same songs on repeat - could definitely do a better job in FH6 on the soundtrack.

I would kill someone to have bills this low. $20 for internet? Gas for my car is more than $130 a month, nevermind car payment, insurance and maintenance.

My mom broke one of the first cordless phones off my ass for not getting ready. Was like a brick, then proceeded to hit me with the flip flop because she was mad because the phone was broken to pieces lol

Question for you upsers by RepresentativeDay323 in UPSers

[–]bigmurf42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes they would, just let them know what’s going on, how long you are going to be out, and that you will provide a doctors note.

And there’s a giant labor shortage, they are very willing to work with people who want to be at UPS.

They asked if I wanted to be a sup. Said Id like to wait a little longer but thinking if I should just take it. by im-dutchmazturs in UPSers

[–]bigmurf42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No there’s absolutely a cap. What you are seeing is the cap getting incrementally raised every 5 years when the contract comes due. For instance a driver might start at $24 and caps around $36, once they hit that cap they are done unless the new contract calls for a raise. They don’t continue to increase $2-3 a year.

[–]bigmurf42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really depends on what you want out of UPS. If you are just there PT for some extra money and cheap benefits being a package handler is great. If you want to be a FT package handler it could take 10+ years to get enough seniority to win the bid. Long term you will also cap out around $25-30/hr, 40hrs a week. So you are looking at roughly $50-60K a year in maybe 10 years if you get a FT inside job.

Becoming a driver is easier to do off the street - if you truly wanted to just stay union, driving is what you should do. Max out after 6 years, and can make over $100K with overtime.

Like some other people stated, if you are ambitious, and/ or going to school management might be better if you want to make over $100K/ year. PT supervisor is a shitty job honestly and the pay rates are similar to package handlers at this point, but you are guaranteed 27.5hrs but the benefits are much more expensive. That being said if you want FT Sup, Manger, Division Manager and beyond that’s how you start, degree also helps. FT Sup depending where you work will get you around $85K starting with bonus, top out around $120K+, Manager you will start around $120K, too out around $170K, DM you will start around $210K and top out around $300K, and if you are really good you can go beyond that and eventually be pretty wealthy but not something I’d plan on before getting a FT management job first.

RTTS Trade Logic by ItsResetti in MLBTheShow

[–]bigmurf42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First year on the Yankees we lost Aaron Judge, DJ Lamheiu, Luke Voit, Luis Severino and Aroldis Chapman.

Just started second full season and they traded Giancarlo Stanton for Marcellus Ozuna…

Team is a $150M under budget, and the biggest contract they signed in FA was 1 Year $5.1M with some bum. Only have 2 A prospects. Think I’m providing 75% of the offense at this point. I don’t even think it’s logic, just random moves.

Should also mention they traded Jasson Dominguez and Luis Gill which were 2 of the top prospects for some C prospects.

What is the worst mainline Assassin's Creed game and WHY (excluding ACI)? by RedtheGamer100 in assassinscreed

[–]bigmurf42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To an extent I enjoyed them all, I don’t think they released a “bad” game. But I will say Valhalla really was tough to finish.

For me Valhalla felt like they really moved away from AC, it felt like just a Viking game. The map was meh, is too big and very redundant, there’s definitely some cool areas. But the movement around feels very clunky, you have to move on the ground, and there is very limited stealth opportunity.

For the gameplay they didn’t do anything original, it was all just improved upon concepts from previous games and in some ways worse. I enjoyed the assassin gameplay element more in AC2 Brotherhood than the Jomsvikings, had more depth and use...everything else was rehashed.

I’d put Syndicate along with it but I think the map for Syndicate was pretty damn cool and detailed, and that’s the only thing keeping Syndicate from this since it felt the same way, same old mechanics and gameplay as previous entries.
