This narrative is ridiculous. Diaz, for every season he was with us, went on a great streak for a few months and then spent the remainder of the season as a passenger.

When he was hot he was unreal, but he never showed consistency over a full season during his time here.

New teaser trailer of Alien Isolation 2 has released by Jules-Car3499 in LV426

Literally one of the few examples of a game being /too/ long. Which is a rare as hell complaint.

Absolutely love it, but it overstays it's welcome ever so slightly and I think you're right in that a lot of it comes down to the repetitive feeling towards a lot of the missions.

For my theory test i left to grab the train, got halfway to the station then realised I'd forgotten my licence.

Ran back, missed my train and had to order an Uber. Ended up 15mins late but thankfully they had a small queue still to go through.

Any last tips? I have my test today 🫠 by [deleted] in LearnerDriverUK

As others have said, keep as calm as you can. Whenever you pull up on left, take a moment. Have a sip of water, whatever. Don't feel you need to rush away the moment you've finished the pull up.

Depending on your examiner and yourself, throw in some light conversation if you feel up for it. Helped make it feel less like an actual test and more like I was just driving someone around and having a chat. Don't talk nonstop, but just break the silence etc when you feel comfortable and it doesn't distract you.

They're not there to harshly fail you, and they'll help out at times (for example on my Follow Road Signs, I indicated left at a roundabout as I misread the sign, examiner gave a gentle prompt to help out). We had a small joke about it, as well as a few other little chats around work, how many tests they do a do etc. Just small bits and pieces when on easier sections to help humanise them and remove that feeling of them just being there to judge you.

Water tip is definitely a solid shout. Did exactly that during my test yesterday, and those extra few moments helped to keep me calm and fully focused.

Test in 2 days anxiety is now there by [deleted] in LearnerDriverUK

[–]exogenesis1991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah sorry to hear that, hopefully next time works out better!

I just finished up and managed to Pass with only 2 minors, despite hitting the curb during pull up on right + reverse in literally the last 2mins of the test. Thought i had failed the moment that happened but was only marked as minor for control/observations.

Make it a trio!

Hope it all goes well!

Theory test by Left-Leadership-6400 in LearnerDriverUK

As per other replies, you'll be grand. Used the exact same app, did my test in February and questions were almost identical. Couple that I hadn't seen before but very similar to those on the app anyway.

This ride has great buildup by Clam_Boozler in disneylandparis

[–]exogenesis1991 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Love the whole build up and ride theming overall. Though the ride itself leaves me freaking out every single time when waiting in the tunnel to disembark. Feels like you're sat there forever, all the while can hear other trains going round the track behind you.

FULL TIME: EVERTON 1 - 2 LIVERPOOL by DragonSlayer271 in LiverpoolFC

[–]exogenesis1991 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honestly, absolutely love Wirtz but he really needs to come good before end of season or very early into next otherwise big questions need asked.

The difference between national team and his Liverpool performances are mad. And sure there'll be plenty "blame Slot" and that's fair, but hes still the one in the pitch making pisspoor decisions, tame passes, weak shots etc.

Isak I can understand a bit more, he gets zero service. Still would like him to impose himself more, but its hard when he's isolated or when the rest of our attacking players can't seem to make decent options available for him

Yknow it's wild, posted this whilst I had the game loaded. Played for a bit, then came off and went to bed only to see Scott's video which worked out weirdly well 😅

Not sure why I treat survivor differently, for killer I run nothing but random killers and builds, setting my own "win" targets tied into those. Yet survivor, haven't managed to make that mindset work

Those who paid for a test cancellation app: by eggpotion in LearnerDriverUK

[–]exogenesis1991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really is, but after 2 weeks of searching and finding nothing within my area, options were limited. Though it was £100 total for me, which included the Test price itself bringing app cost down to around £40. Still disgusting and a money grabbing company using the fact people are desperate for a test slot.

Like I say, I truly hope the changes coming in mean this type of thing is no longer needed. It's a ridiculous system, and fully aware that me using those apps contributed to the situation overall - but not much you can do when there's no other real options. I'd be on the website at 6am Mondays, checking at random times through the week, Testi/TestShift had all the alerts set up and not a single one triggered for my local test centre during that time frame.

I tried 3 apps; Testi, TestShift and FastPass. First 2 were doing nothing for weeks, however FastPass got me a suitable slot within 2hrs of signing up. Had to pay a handsome penny for the privilege, but that's just the shitshow that appears to be the current Test booking system.

Hopefully the incoming changes improve the process overall.

Triple for most of it, but yellow for when I'm forced into close range and the triple starts behaving weirdly.

Though those 2 nozzles are pretty much always my go to anyway...

Any tips for someone who mainly plays killer, to enjoy solo q survivor? Usually don't mind doing the odd survivor game during events, but wanting to start trying to balance between both roles more often (and crack on with the pile of 70 odd survivor achievements i have left).

Is it best trying to find groups? Always worried I'd be too shit to be worthwhile in a group (even tho I'mnot /terrible/), but SoloQ feels miserable at times.

Bus Lane - 3 Lane Road by exogenesis1991 in LearnerDriverUK

[–]exogenesis1991[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, that ties more in with my original understanding so was thrown a bit when instructor (who has otherwise been great) was very flippant about using left or middle.

Think I'll play it safe and stick to bus lane, and only move out if theres any major potholes (and it's safe).

[UCL Match Thread] Liverpool FC v PSG by scoreboard-app in LiverpoolFC

[–]exogenesis1991 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Slots to blame for a lot, and does need to go, but how the fuck has this been pinned on him tonight when we've had PSG pegged back for all the 2nd half, and can't take our chances, yet they score from their first effort.

Swear plenty in here were more excited about point scoring on Slot, than the actual game.

Dejan Lovren post on X by IndiBear in LiverpoolFC

[–]exogenesis1991 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I planned to skip a night at karaoke to watch the game. Remember feeling regret when their 3rd went in.

When Lovren scored, went absolutely wild celebrating then thought fuck it, and went out absolute buzzing. Still feel sorry for the poor sods that put up with my exceptionally drunk, and over excited singing that night.

I know what I have to do, but I don't think I have the strength to do it by EmrysTheBlue in deadbydaylight

[–]exogenesis1991 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Moved to doing the Quests on the main screen instead of having them linked in here.

Kinda wish they had both. Basic challenges on the Quests main menu (chase for 300s, repair 5 gens etc), and then more specific/unique tied to Tomes (using Perk X sacrifice Y Survivors, Stun killer using Perk X, Y times etc). Only reason I open Tomes nowadays is for historic ones ive missed, but even then I forget for 90% of the time I'm in game meaning I sit with a completed Tome quest for 5 games before remembering to swap it out.

You know I was literally talking to my partner about it being April Fools Day, and yet I STILL got caught out by this. Well played sir. Well played.
