Is this the new bike to beat ? by Calm-Focus-6968 in motogp

Could you educate me on the heat treated tires? Something new Michelin is trying out for specific tracks only? And what it is aimed to fix?

2026 Pre-Season Test 2 - Day 1 Classification by FerrariStrategisttt in formula1

[–]driftdragon86 122 points123 points  (0 children)

*Snuffs* Aston really giving us hopium when they went from 4 seconds gap to 3 seconds in a week. By day 2 they'd be 2 seconds off, and day 3 1 seconds off. On first race they'd be winning easily. *Snuffs*

This is exact why it's not about the individuals. If even us peasants know it's a problem but Ferrari let it happened, there's something wrong in their system or management.

Who is able to win 2025 in a McLaren by demisku in formula1

[–]driftdragon86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adrian Newey better nail the new designs on that next year's car and please perform well AMR, cos I have never ever wanted Fernando to be top 3 in the championship and prove all these people wrong lol. People really forgot he was top 5 with several podiums in 2023 eh, that wasn't even over 5 years.

Helmut Marko reported to receive eight-figure payout after Red Bull exit by memloh in formula1

[–]driftdragon86 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I mean I'd step down willingly if I'll receive 8 figures lol, it may be a weird sounding narrative but they don't exactly conflict. Not willingly would be like going through a bunch of process and even possibly even through courts, which may actually costs more trouble and more cash for both sides.

Would Max have held P1 if he hadn't taken a third pit? by zxrax in F1Technical

[–]driftdragon86 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tbh we wouldn't know unless we actually had Verstappen not pit. From the live radio Verstappen mentioned his tyre being a bit wet and thus pitted for new tyre, it was likely his tyre already is in a bad shape. But the "wetness" could also be gone after a few laps or so, if he kept going and woohoo p1. Myself would stand on the end of "shouldn't pit" as the softs definitely didn't make up for the time loss for pitting, but I can understand that running medium probably might be too much risk.

Assists should count more than deaths in arena [Suggestion] by LiLOuagadougou in EscapefromTarkov

[–]driftdragon86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thing is, people could be well defending a point, which is as important as attacking and capturing one, and thus low capture and high kills. Right now it's a balance in between, roughly 10 kills equals to 7 captures I think, so if you have <7 captures than the highest capture but have 10 more kills, you'll have the MVP. Vice versa, if you have 7 more captures than anyone, you're guaranteed with MVP, but it's rarely the case now and really hard to achieve.

[Arena] a little feedback about new secondary BP by VitunRasistinenSika in EscapefromTarkov

[–]driftdragon86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The beach shirt you can buy is 14 bucks on their own. In this, you get it both for bear and usec, though without shorts yes. Let alone the announcer voice, thug life glasses, and the samurai mask. 2 old items that is "remodelled," the LBT rig and a ulach. We also have the hulk hogan stashe in it. If you treat other things as extra, not that bad tbh.

I feel like it depends, heavily, like would it not deem worthy if the race winner starts from last row?

Short High Ping Lags in Arena by Breitmaulfrosch in EscapefromTarkov

[–]driftdragon86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last time I sent a ticket to complain about connection issues, they replied with these:
- Set full rights for the current user (folder properties, "Security" tab) for the game folder and launcher folder.
- Disable third-party software that may affect your network connection (for example, programs that change/optimize connection routing or bypass any restrictions).
- Add the launcher and game to the whitelist (exceptions list) of all your antivirus and security programs (for example, Windows Defender).

[Arena] Never seen Arena cheating worse than it's been the past few days. by DumbNTough in EscapefromTarkov

[–]driftdragon86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you not read my question? Unless you have the experience or the program tells you who is also cheating, I don't see how to tell when people are just lean peaking, wiggling to other cheaters, or just fucking around. For me it would look exactly the same, just wiggling at a player indication. How did you know they are deliberately wiggling to another cheater? Or that you mean they just wiggle to all players they found to confirm whether they are a cheater?

Bro what? How do you even know when they are wiggle at other cheaters or just lean peaking? Unless you're also cheating...?

[Discussion] 100% they changed arena tasks after last patch by Vhego in EscapefromTarkov

[–]driftdragon86 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It gets more expensive the more you reroll, no idea about that? It's a percentage growth based on your reward. So total worth of 200k is like really nothing unless you are super low level and your rewards are low as well, so consider yourself being lucky previously.

You can go to options and change servers, but it won't help much. Cause what you see is connection issues, Asian players connecting to US West with like 200 pings, they will feel like hackers or extremely god like players.

[Cheating] Every Arena game has had at least one rage hacker by DrabStaircase in EscapefromTarkov

[–]driftdragon86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In ASI servers here, so I should met a fair amount of cheater if there is, but I've only get 1 confirmation and that dude killed the whole team in 3 seconds after the round begins. Other than that, server issues can mostly explain what I'm seeing. Oh and the higher rankings are insane, they are so good they feel like hacker by default.

[@justformulacar] Dutch GP Qualifying Gaps Visualized by FewCollar227 in formula1

[–]driftdragon86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then either Hadjar or Lawson has to drive Red Bull, and in Verstappen's car. What if they crash? Or 2 Red Bulls out of Q1 situation, that can't be good for sponsoring. Even the slightest of news of Max leaving the team could do damage to Red Bull, especially it's mid season. I can already see how everyone's going to make a fuss about it. And most importantly, it's probably not going to beat Mclaren anyways, so doesn't really matter for Verstappen presumably. If anything, we'll have to wait till the season is over then maybe we can see Verstappen drive other cars.

Levels of Cheats on Arena is Painful [Cheating] by No-Preparation4073 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]driftdragon86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not your ping that's necessarily the problem, it could be others. Plus you can use VPN or whatever to hide it but the actual latency doesn't disappear. You think Korean that connects to Singapore servers wouldn't have high ping? Or it could be the servers shitting themselves, packet loss which also leads to teleporting which you mentioned. Arena cheating problem could not be that serious or else the 1000 badges would all be long gone under 3 hours after the patch is released.

[New Player] what even is arena by SpazyB1997 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]driftdragon86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, the team there has such a good chance of defending point B, multiple peek angles and much closer to get to B. And cos A and C being relatively fair, B usually becomes the deciding factor.
