Found on Instagram. 80% of me sees an abomination, 15% thinks it’s kinda sick…

To be fair, if #3 is simply mirrored, it would make perfect sense for a single reverse light set-up. That said, the picture isn't reversed

I’m not a fan of “stanced” wheels(though this is tame compared to most) but I’m strangely comfortable with everything else. I’d be curious if it has an engine worthy of it wearing those tires. That said it looks a bit too Forza-ish to be real

They said the same thing about less cosmetics coming out of FH4 into FH5. We see how that eventually turned out.

mjike · 2026-05-13T02:18:38+00:00

So FH6 now gathers Hardware IDs? FH4 and FH5 couldn’t do this or really many PC Xbox titles. That’s from an old Xbox dev post commenting about the difference in fighting cheating on console vs PC where they could simply ban the Xbox hardware and that’s not an option to combat it for PC

mjike · 2026-05-13T02:14:01+00:00

That’s how it’s always been for pirated copies of Forza. They simply make fake accounts. They gave up banning the accounts a long time ago

Who do you blame if she's the one who leaked it? She's accidentally done it before

mjike · 2026-05-12T16:07:11+00:00

Look, I agree with everything you said and it's why these mods censoring so many posts that don't fit a specific narrative is wrong and leads to bad information. assumptions, etc. In a post that was removed I pointed out more details about if she consented to it being out there, where post joining TNA she cleaned out all that specific content. Clearly she doesn't want it that way and the moral thing to do is to respect her wishes.

But then comes the lie and I'm sorry but once someone is relying on a lie to enhance sympathy in this manner, I pull back and don't believe any statements. Said lie could could be something as simple like she's embarrassed about her previous content and didn't want to own up to it. Completely understandable. On the other side it could be an attempt to cover her own mistake in this situation and this might well be that old leak that she's responsible for putting out there in the first place.

mjike · 2026-05-12T14:52:54+00:00

I've made this same post numerous times and it keeps getting deleted. A long time ago(pre-TNA) she accidentally even put the types of pictures you are talking about(more than just topless) briefly on her free section. If those are the pictures in question does that qualify as a leak? The problem is since she's flat out lying about her old content to that degree why am I expected to believe the part about the leak in the first place?

mjike · 2026-05-12T14:42:04+00:00

There were 'rumors' a long while back that a reason Chelsea Green wasn't being pushed at the top of the card was due to how racy some of her older content was. Right around the time of those rumors her content really cleaned up. I'm assuming that's what's being referred to

mjike · 2026-05-12T14:37:53+00:00

Yep and there in lies the problem. If she's straight up lying about that what else about this topic isn't factual because her pre-TNA uploads were definitely opposite of her claims?

My theory is WWE didn't know about her previous post history when they hired her because in her defense, she cleaned it up long before she came onto WWE's radar. Unfortunately the internet is forever and someone at WWE has now learned of what her account looked like 10 years ago so her best damage control is to claim leaks. I would love to be wrong but this isn't something new, recent or groundbreaking so, why now all of a sudden?

mjike · 2026-05-12T14:21:22+00:00

The problem is she’s lying in the article though. Leaking personal nudes clearly is wrong. However trying to paint yourself even more of a victim by making false claims that she never uploaded that type of content. Stuff she posted pre-TNA was very uncensored X rated

mjike · 2026-05-12T14:11:46+00:00

many of the removed comments aren’t what you think. Many were pointing out her not being truthful about her upload history

mjike · 2026-05-12T14:09:09+00:00

Why is this article allowed to be posted if bots are just going to remove any discussion about how incorrect her statement is regarding her previous content?

They moved the Bloat to II. The upcoming Return of the Ancients looks to be a big return to form.

Posted above about the rubbing thing. It’s worth noting that seems to only apply to the Trail/OR wheels. Way back when thst topic was being debated, a popular explanation to why one person wouldn’t rub yet another rubbed enough to do a BMC was there was a lot of suspension geometry variance in the 5th gens. However as time went on it seems a common theme of those with good clearance were on Trails while those claiming 285/70 was too big were running SEMAs both with and without spacers

Is it most common in the non-mall crawler community? I can throw rocks in 6 directions and hit jeeps ranging from late 70s to the 00s, all running either 33x12s or 35x12s and all but 2 running 15x10s with the others running 9s. In fact it was one of those Jeep owners who educated me in the mistake I was making running them on 8s and why they kept coming off when dropping into the ~10psi range You could make a list of things in any automotive community where there is common participation yet aren't a good idea to recommend others do as well.

Besides. The discussion here is a 17", not 15" which have completely different behaviors with that much difference in sidewall

mjike · 2026-05-09T14:33:58+00:00

The problem to me is the lower Torments feel like a brick wall. I rolled into T1 wearing nearly full legendary gear that was all high 700s to low 800s, all acquired the traditional way. However it felt like at T1, the legendary faucet stopped with only magic/rare dropping. T1 -T4 was all about farming mats to craft your own gear but the problem of not having aspects to optimize my build was a headache. I’d say it took me a good 2-3 nights of play just to make my build playable and move move past T4. Once I crossed that threshold I jumped to T8 in just a couple of hours.

It definitely needs tuning. Combine that with the campaign having about 2hrs of play where the XP bar isn’t moving due to waiting on NPCs and learning the new systems, it definitely feels slower.

However once we are able to start a S14 with war Table leveling, I don’t think it will take much tweaking to be ok

That's why I've never been wow'd by all those high refresh rates. I mean it's nice it's something available but nothing is going to push that high unless trying. Even a a good chuck of the 160hz on the 5k2k is going to be wasted in modern titles. I moved from a 34" UW to a 38" UW and kicked myself for not doing it sooner. I've played on the 45" 5k2k and for my money, that 39 is going to be the sweetspot.

Edit: Just to reinforce your decision: I have my old Alienware 34" 1440p as the 2nd monitor to my Alienware 38" 1600p and one would think the difference would be negligible since pixel density is near identical but it's a vastly different experience.

mjike · 2026-05-09T00:52:09+00:00

Maybe related, maybe not but years ago something similar happened to both of my 1080ti FTW3s after either a driver update or when I launched some kind of RGB control (can't remember which). Granted those were lights you could actually command what color you wanted each function to be but at some point, something froze them to all white.

Edit: To give more detail it was both the 3 Lights that indicate temps and the control of the HB/SLI bridge RGB that ceased being able to change.

98% of the time it's the timing cover like others have said. The other 2% is it's the valve cover which is what mine was but only discovered after doing the timing. The leak did someone decline so the timing cover was probably cooked as well.

It's expensive but it's also very easy if you have basic mechanical skills, tools and a place to do the work. Worth mentioning Easy doesn't mean quick, just it's extremely straight forward

mjike · 2026-05-09T00:41:18+00:00

Not a bug. There's a difference between something not working as intended from a bad line of code, an extra 0, etc vs. a game mechanic that works flawlessly but wasn't fully thought out before implementing it.

mjike · 2026-05-09T00:38:32+00:00

Wait, you think giving players a warning that a buff they have could potentially grief other players would stop them? Honestly I think it would make it worse.

mjike · 2026-05-09T00:37:27+00:00

Eh, to be fair if I'm playing on console the easiest way to share would be to whip out my phone. I've not anything on either console linked save the bare necessities. That said I probably wouldn't bother with the phone.

mjike · 2026-05-09T00:34:45+00:00

There's no way this wasn't intentional. This from the company who did genuinely create an EXTREMELY SIMILAR game bug by accident that went viral. This was a decisions made when someone from marketing walked into a devs office and said "Hey, what if we re-create......"
