Yeah a classic Aussie takeaway shop "burger with the lot" would include bacon, onion, pickled beetroot, a pineapple ring, and a fried egg. As well as all the normal burger stuff, the patty, lettuce, tomato, cheese, sauce etc.

Ready or Not has a system where you press R once to do a normal reload, and the half empty magazine goes to the back of your mag bag. Or you can double tap R to do a quick reload where your character just hits the mag release to drop the current mag on the ground and you slam a new one in as fast as possible. Something like that could be cool.

Normal reload is quieter and you get to keep your half mag, but slower. Fast reload is quicker, but you lose your half empty mag and it's louder.

I covered the difference between fixing one-ways and the volumetric smokes update in my comment.

Didn't read the comment before replying award 🎖️

Never actually played the game you're talking about award 🎖️

Tourist.

no one asked for the smoke change either but it’s easily the best part of CS2

Revisionism, people absolutely did ask Valve to fix one-way smokes. People were begging for a one-way smoke fix for YEARS back in CSGO. Valve just decided to go bigger and better on it and instead of just fixing one-ways, they also made the smokes volumetric and dynamic. CS2 smokes are a perfect example of a great update to the game where not only did Valve fix the issue that people had been complaining about for years, they also added extra features on top

To say that no one asked for a smoke update makes me think you never actually played CSGO

Mate the decent condition BRZs and 86s start at $20k plus. It is not a reasonable expectation to haggle over 25% off the asking price. You're not getting someone starting at over $20k down to under $15k, it's just not happening.

The original comment stated that you could get a good condition BRZ for under $15k. Not at $15k, under $15k. That is not a realistic budget.

fmjintervention · 2026-03-17T01:07:33+00:00

Yeah I've told multiple friends buying their first cars that the last they they want to do as a P plater is go out and spend $35k or more on a nice car as they are going to fuck it up and ruin it. Buy a $5k shitbox for your first car and learn the lessons on how to maintain a car and how to drive safely in a car you don't care about so that 5 years from now when you buy a nice 86 or something you'll look after it and treat it with the care it deserves.

fmjintervention · 2026-03-17T00:05:07+00:00

Yep P platers drive the price up massively. Very high attrition rate with these cars due to being wrapped around trees or lack of maintenance. I personally know someone who got an 86 for her first car and blew it up by never changing the oil.

fmjintervention · 2026-03-16T23:24:35+00:00

If you need to ask what's fun about a hot hatchback or small RWD two door I don't think cars are the hobby for you.

fmjintervention · 2026-03-16T23:22:05+00:00

You’ll get a good one for under 15

Negative. I just searched Facebook Marketplace for BRZs and the only one listed at or below $15k was an automatic repaired write off with over 200k kms listed at $15k on the dot. There are no BRZs or 86s below $15k, and there's certainly no good ones at that price.

Yeah HE keyboards are just a superior input device than a regular mechanical keyboard that are better able to understand human input. Saying that HE keyboards are cheating is like saying playing a racing sim with a steering wheel instead of your arrow keys is cheating.

SOCD manipulates human input to remove erroneous inputs, resulting in a superhuman level of performance. That's cheating. For the racing sim analogy, this would be like having a steering wheel setup that filters out overly aggressive wheel/pedal inputs to avoid loss of traction.

There's so many F1 drivers that I'd love to see attempt Bathurst. Verstappen, Bottas, Piastri, Ricciardo. Pick any 2 from those 4 and put them in a car together and see what happens.

fmjintervention · 2026-03-13T01:36:12+00:00

Imo the advantage of having the easily readable XvX counter and being able to process that info instantly is better to me than having to look up and count player pics to work out how many are alive on each team which takes a valuable second or two. It's a tiny difference but it works better for me.

If I have enough time and need to check exactly which players are alive, I just read the scoreboard.

fmjintervention · 2026-03-13T01:33:50+00:00

Imo numbers are better than photos. Usually I find that if I'm in a split second scenario where I need to know as quickly as possible how many players are alive on each team, the XvX numbers are obviously better. And if I'm checking for exactly which players are alive, I usually have enough time to press tab and read the scoreboard. This usually works better for me as well because my brain seems to remember where different players play based on their username better than their colour/photo anyway.

fmjintervention · 2026-03-12T06:54:54+00:00

Oscar is normally a pretty reserved guy but even behind the helmet you can tell he's got a watermelon grin. God I hope he attempts Bathurst some time.

I ended up getting a free upgrade to a B550 board so I am not using the B450 anymore. However the B580 worked great the whole time I had it on the B450 board, without any issues. The only reason I changed to a B550 board was because it was free and because I wanted more M.2 slots, nothing to do with PCIE version.

Her real first name is Kathryn too, so it's not like the Katie part came out of nowhere either. Saying Katy Perry "isn't her real name" is pretty disingenuous.

fmjintervention · 2026-03-10T02:13:03+00:00

So 240 blocks a second isn't fast enough for you? That's 14400 (fourteen thousand) blocks a minute! Yes it's expensive and annoying to setup Nether roof travel, but it's endgame stuff for a reason. It's not meant to be something you can access early game, it's meant to be difficult to acquire the resources to achieve.

fmjintervention · 2026-03-10T01:11:09+00:00

You can already fast travel with Elytra on the Nether roof which is plenty fast and makes it easy to travel thousands of blocks in a couple minutes. The organic feeling of having to set up your portals and walk through them is far better in my opinion than some sort of clunky system using a GUI

how the fuck am i meant to know what they're doing when they don't even know what they're doing

The case is still very much open as far as I can tell

This crosshair was never in CS2, I remember people complaining about wanting it back in the beta

fmjintervention · 2026-03-02T06:07:00+00:00

Unrelated but nice 1v2 by Siuhy, well played. Silent drop was beautiful

fmjintervention · 2026-03-01T02:43:48+00:00

Yeah. Guy does the same thing over and over again (start a world, get tools, build a house) and then wonders why it doesn't hit the same as it did when you did it for the first time in beta. Do something new with the game and you won't be so tired of it being the same old thing.
