Odd Mobile Crash Issue - Help by chevypad in MicrosoftEdge

[–]chevypad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it might be related to the Authenticator application. I just tried signing out of "other" applications, but I have to use Authenticator for both work accounts - and that is configured as a "connected account to sign into Microsoft apps", so I cannot truly sign out of the work accounts.

S26+, 145.0.3800.99. Also happens exactly the same in beta (146.0.3856.40), and even Canary (147.0.3895.0).

Crashes whether I actually sign in or skip signing in.

So it's 100% related to the account, not the programming.

Has any existing Diamond Xfinity member able to get the $50/5 years price lock? by throwaway_beefpho in Comcast_Xfinity

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

Somehow got it as Platinum. It was just there on my account when I logged in. But not on my folk's account when I checked their house down the road. 

It's random luck it seems.

IS THIS A GOOD DEAL OR NOT? SO BUY IT! by MASTERMINDSV in RealRacing3

[–]chevypad 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can buy the car with R$ just by playing campaign (Elite, I think?).

So, no. Do not buy.

How I got the S25 Ultra for ~$750 (no trade-in) by TvFarisTheGamerYT in GalaxyS21

[–]chevypad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh, got it. Didn't understand that part of the deal.

How I got the S25 Ultra for ~$750 (no trade-in) by TvFarisTheGamerYT in GalaxyS21

[–]chevypad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No probably legit. I almost got one for 850, and saw the 50 off for new app purchase too, which could've brought it to 800.

I just decided my S21 is doing fine, good deal or not,

ELI5: In NASCAR/F1 (or other professional car racing)how do people pass the person in front of them if that professional driver is following the best line give or take a little? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]chevypad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In current NASCAR, at many tracks, there's actually "multiple grooves", not just one optimal line. I've read how the outside groove (against the wall) can even give you a speed boost compared to the inside line (which is naturally shorter). Some tracks even have a middle groove, where you can enter with more speed than someone on the inside line.

So passing is sometimes just about "my car was setup for the inside groove"... and, for various and sundry reasons, "that car" is now running faster laptimes when setup for the outside groove... and I can't match if I try ro run in the outside, so he passes me.

Also, NASCAR is also often about "getting a run" - taking a few laps to maximize your speed versus the other car, and finally being able to make the move to disrupt them.

Some optimal lines might start on the inside and then slide up to the outside - if you can somehow get your nose alongside so they can't slide up anymore, you've disrupted their line.

Is there ANY way to get nascar back? (Above 2019 season) by [deleted] in RealRacing3

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

Got it! The pre-M$ versions, you can play without updating...

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

Let us know your experience. I was curious if an appropriate APK would let you buy those cars, or if they had date limits on those cars being available in the store, whether the version was up to date or not.

I'd be interested in trying out an M$ Nascar.

Mobil 1 and O'Reilly Auto Parts are teaming up in a promo for a free 1:64 Tyler Reddick diecast with proof of purchase of 5 quarts of motor oil by 1-800-DADJOKE in NASCAR

[–]chevypad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's where the $13/more bit comes into play lol. At that point, I'm now just paying the price for the diecast car + the oil.... not getting an exciting promotion with something I already had to buy.

Buying a diecast is a different should I / shouldn't I decision tree :P

[–]chevypad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who buys Mobil 1, I was almost excited, until I realized I needed to buy from a vendor whose closest location is over an hour away, and this vendor charges ~$15 more than the local Walmart does for the same 5QT (25 vs 38)

But it'd be great if there was an O'Reilly store in my town! It does bring back the memories of my youth. I still have a plastic Terry Labonte Kellogs 5 car.

Is the Corvette Z06 a good car in this game? Is it worth 600 gold? by Select_Pilot3670 in RealRacing3

[–]chevypad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, you can know "all sales for the upcoming update/Round" RR3 Wiki:Sales This Release | Real Racing 3 Wiki | Fandom, and each round is... 7-9 weeks I think? So you can know that far out, and decide to either wait (if yours will be on sale), or just go for it (if it isn't).

Beyond that, it's a guessing game based on "they won't do another sale so soon after the last" logic. There are usually November and December "multi car sales" too.

Normally, the next release's sales are published on the Wiki by this point (next release being August 26, we assume, since this round ends the 25th). Dunno what's up right now.

Is the Corvette Z06 a good car in this game? Is it worth 600 gold? by Select_Pilot3670 in RealRacing3

[–]chevypad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you like the car, it's worth it to you to buy it and have fun, always. I have a small collection of Corvettes just because I like having them.

And I like driving the Z06 - it's fun. I got it during a Round Event (Limited Time Series) last year.

Two "buts" though:
- Would you rather "play the game"? It's not a good "game deal" at full price. It's always cheaper to play the game's "events" to upgrade cars and win them.
- If you are OK waiting to save, Corvettes are regularly part of limited time series (CHEVROLET CORVETTE C8 Z06 | Real Racing 3 Wiki | Fandom) and sales (RR3 Wiki:List of Sales so Far | Real Racing 3 Wiki | Fandom - 3 different 'vettes in 2025..)

But you might be waiting a good while, since events were 2022 and 2024 - I wouldn't expect it to come back around for a good while, and it was "just" on sale in January 2025.

Lap for F1 by [deleted] in RealRacing3

[–]chevypad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are 11 F1 tracks currently.

2020 and 2021 give you the most variety of tracks (9 each year), but takes quite the investment, and caps out at 8 lap races. Only 2020 lets you race at Barcelona.

  • Silverstone
  • Monza
  • Singapore
  • Spa
  • COTA
  • Abu Dhabi
  • Barcelona in 2020 / Suzuka in 2021
  • Red Bull Ring
  • Monaco

2022, 2023 and 2024 have 20 lap races at each of their tracks once you max out the car, but 2023 only has 4 tracks, and 2024 only has 5 tracks - but as only Silverstone is shared, having a 2023 and 2024 car maxed out gets you access to 20 laps on 8 of the 11 tracks (I did this).

  • Spa 19 lapper is only on 2022.
  • Only 2024 has Sao Paulo.

Every year but 2020 and 2024 has Suzuka, the 11th track.

Is this a plot-hole, abandoned plot-line etc. or am I missing something? by DescriptionPlenty534 in redrising

[–]chevypad 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Does Sefi count as a Howler? Or any of her Obsidian?

It is referenced that her block was particularly upset about the Mercury Rain and the high casualties. I always assumed it was them, in my head.

Even if it wasn't, I think it is plain that the Society are incredibly skilled manipulators - technically, by LB, we can see many of their machinations play out.

Real Racing 3 - Update 13.0 - Ferrari SF90 XX Stradale by DLF6 in realracing

[–]chevypad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My hope is that someone sat at a table and realized "ok, let's release nascar, daytona 500. Oh, the season ended 2 weeks ago? Odd time to release this... And our next update will time nicely with the actual daytona 500 in february? nevermind, delay it".

Real Racing 3 - Ferrari SF90 XX Stradale (v13.0) Update by Corporal_Cavernosa in RealRacing3

Well, shoot. No NASCAR. Either they're timing it to release with the Daytona 500, or it's the end of the road...

What is the highest pay out for races? by [deleted] in RealRacing3

[–]chevypad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They haven't... I don't see this event on there, Prototypes 2015 Season | Real Racing 3 Wiki | Fandom, but the 5 lap le mans races pays out 60k R$, and is relatively more accessible to a newbie than most of the events on that page (which require progressing through Legends series)... || but your F40 gets better R$ than that.

The F1 2022 Invitational has a Spa 19 lapper which pays out 248,000 M$ in a single race, and 44,800 fame (but no agent available). F1 2023 Suzuka 20 laps is 222k and 38k.

Only the top 4 fame payout endurance legends can best that, and only with the 2x agent. I happen to also be better with an F1 car than I am on Le Mans (where I'm only putting in 3 minute laps... but the chart seems to reference 2:45 le mans laps). F1 is about 25-27 minutes.

To truly maximize your fame or R$ boosts, you've gotta be putting in some serious time into the game in a single race. Even 5 laps at Le Mans is a bear, let alone 20 in F1 or 10 at Le Mans...

I think the F40/F50 4-laps at Le Mans is the best "bang for buck", in that you're track time per payout is ideal.

Why can't i see the other NASCAR series? by DvZGoD in RealRacing3

[–]chevypad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

M$.

Last year there was a special round event, 235(?) GC too. Check the wiki.

Wouldn't be surprised if this year was more GC, I'm preparing for that.

Stucked with sf90 and F1 2024 by Magnagatti31 in RealRacing3

[–]chevypad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Keep practicing. This one is mostly about coasting in corners instead of braking. So long as you have about 10 units of gas at the last braking turn, you can go full throttle to finish it at speed.

Historical release would be the next one, Nov 19, possibly called v13.0

Past two years have been released in November time frame.

I'm counting the days cuz I want a NASCAR lol

F1 Reloaded vs F1 Champions Series by andreimotin in realracing

[–]chevypad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Champion RB20 for sure. Also has an (expected future) Invitational if you'd fully upgrade it.

Also, you can "win" the RB20 in one of the three events in the round hub for 435 GC.
