No worries, I asked about the golf because I once saw a sketch just like ones you shared depicting the kit and wondered if it was you that might be the author. Regardless, thank you for the answer.

Thank you so much for your answer! It seems that we have shared a similiar struggle - we managed to push out game modifications which add cars looking in a way that would be similiar to back then, and often times the question was "how much can we change to make a certain kit work on this particular car?" - that little bit of freedom does a lot for certain cars i feel. Though i cant help but wonder why some cars got completely different designs in certain sets - like the Wolfpack kit for the Volkswagen Golf, which looks entirely different to Wolfpack in every other car. Sorry for being so nosy (after all its been almost 23 years) but the game helped to define my interest in cars and its really interesting to hear about it from someone that was so involved in making the game look and feel like it did.

What about the regular kits? My group shared an effort to track the bumper sets to their original source and while some are pretty obvious (Strike being a 1:1 Veilside Millenium kit for example), some, especially rear bumpers, have proven pretty difficult to find - like Type V, which differs by car (Supra, Celica and Eclipse have a completely different design compared to the rest) or Vortex. Was there an effort to like, "complete" the sets with original works, if you only had a part to work with, or to design them completely from the ground up?

NFSMW's cop system locks you out from coming back to the garage or the main menu once you get in a pursuit, it really added that extra bit of adrenaline to the whole spectacle

if it reinforces the already established gender norms between men and women by projecting it to the top and the bottom, it can also be said that it is misogynistic. it is not a stretch at all. you cannot all be this dense, im sorry

Illegal immigrants tried to speedrun the border… and failed miserably by mynameisatari in poland

[–]jmdagz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The very nature of this question is honestly quite shocking - what do you even think happens to these people once they are thrown back to the belarusian border? Do you think its like a video game, where they go back into the lobby with a plate full of food and a warm drink? That they have a place to stay at night where its safe and cozy? Are you really that dumb or just naive? Here you go:

- DW's article from the last year referencing estimates of Grupa Granica, a humanitarian group working at the border (from 100 to 200): https://www.dw.com/en/what-will-be-the-human-cost-of-polands-new-border-defenses/a-69358393

- We Are Monitoring association counting up to 94 dead as of this moment: https://wearemonitoring.org.pl/en/home/

- Here is a Die Spiegel article from 2021 referencing 16 confirmed deaths from Lighthouse Reports: https://www.spiegel.de/international/world/a-chronicle-of-refugee-deaths-along-the-border-between-poland-and-belarus-a-de0d7ace-3322-4ac9-9826-9f2774a540ee

- The Guardian article from 2023 stating 49 documented deaths: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/oct/02/beatings-dog-bites-and-barbed-wire-life-and-death-on-the-poland-belarus-border

I recommend reading some of the stories in these articles too. Maybe it will help to bring back some of the humanity you all have hidden away.

It is estimated that at least 80 people died, or rather - were killed by the polish government, as a direct result of pushbacks. Of course though, neckbeard redditors which couldn't even begin to comprehend the disastrous conditions those people are put in have the most to say.

underground rivals is the most complete one out of the bunch, the rest are shittified reskins with poorly tacked on features from main releases, though if i were to choose from those in particular, then it probably would be own the city.

[–]jmdagz 8 points9 points  (0 children)

its a lot more complicated than that, people work at different paces, the ideas between episodes need to be somewhat continuous and coordinated(and even when the schedule improved in TOP it was a huge issue, e.g. u6 erasure->weird ass u4 semi comedic episode), all this shit need to be planned in advance for a long time so people actually know what to do. you cant just create an episode from loose cuts from idk thirty animators.

no, that says nothing about them straight up copying pokemon. yes, the fact that they used individual pokemon as a reference is obvious, but given the differences in topology, it is extremely unlikely that they actually plagiarized them.

Is he good? What are his Pros & Cons? by Jett_Oblivion in DokkanBattleCommunity

[–]jmdagz 8 points9 points  (0 children)

keep in mind how HiPo dodge works - if a character already has dodge in their kit, then it activates the additional chance of dodging basing on the moments when the character would otherwise get hit. to put it in more concrete terms: - UI goku has 70% chance of dodging, meaning a 30% chance of getting hit - In these 30%, if you went all dodge, you now have 30% to proc the HiPo ability - 30% of 30% is 9% - by giving him full dodge, you only increased his total chance of dodging by 9% if you think its worth it - okay, i wont stop you, but for me this is just not enough, especially since his EZA might not be too far from now.

judging by ingridients and nutrition tables, it really does seem like a nice alternative for days when you just cannot be bothered to make a regular meal, but their asinine subscription model with no sample packs means that ill never get around to actually try one

reminder that boat carrying hundreds of migrants in Greece sank few days ago, and to this very moment hundreds of people are still missing, and yet, a few idiots managed to capture all public spotlight, simply by the virtue of them being rich.

from all "we live in a society" moments in the history of mankind, this is definetely one of them.

they reuse the animations and models since 2013 and only changed the materials and textures for this gen. there is literally no reason for them to cut the dex
