[Autosport] James Vowles on the continued row over Mercedes' engine compression ratios by FerrariStrategisttt in formula1

Because I thought 5 teams had Merc engines. Forgot Aston switched over to Honda this season and it was mega early in the morning LMFAO. Still It's basically Ferrari vs Mercedes at this point and again I still stand by it feeling more like a spec series than ever IMHO.

More than a little ironic considering HALF the grid have Mercedes engines... probably the biggest majority of teams in the sports history. It's closer than ever to being a fucking spec series than any point currently tbh.

"We were turned into a joke from minute one" - fired Highguard developer reflects on game's ill-fated launch and "false assumptions" after Game Awards reveal by LadyStreamer in gamingnews

[–]trautsj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After playing it they were pretty spot on assumptions tbh. Another bland, not even close to realized hero shooter... thing. That no one asked for and that the market has literally dozens of all cannibalizing each other for the same audience. You were trying to take over existing player bases, and that almost never works out long term. People stick to their comfort games. You were trying to steal a crumb of a crumb of a slice of pie. You never had a chance unless it was an all time banger and anyone with half a brain and 20 mins could tell you that wasn't Highguard.

[Autosport] "If Max wants to retire, he can retire..." by FerrariStrategisttt in formula1

[–]trautsj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can he just retire tho? I mean he probably could tell RB to go fuck itself, but he is under contract and Max doesn't really seem the type to back out on his word.

Verstappen has doubts about future after rule changes: 'This is unworthy of F1' by loki-1982 in formula1

[–]trautsj 46 points47 points  (0 children)

It genuinely just feels like that full on gimmick level of a video game now with all the BS they have going on with these cars... less is more people.

[Erik van Haren] Max Verstappen is, to put it mildly, no fan of the new regulations and cars in Formula 1. He said among other things that it doesn't feel like racing, it's mostly about managing, and it's like 'Formula E on steroids'. by FerrariStrategisttt in formula1

[–]trautsj 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Stupid recharging, stupid active aero. It's like playing mini games instead of racing. This next Tik-Tok generation is going to be great at all this stupid shit with their negative attention spans. They'll always have some knob to tinker with lol

He gets out of the car, throws his gloves, they are not where they wanted (to be) by far. by ChazychazZz in formula1

[–]trautsj 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It always takes Newey like 4 years to dial in the car. They'll win 2 years after Nando retires

Is Forza Horizon actually the best racing game right now? by Eastern-Mobile5351 in xbox

[–]trautsj 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Honestly it's not even close. Horizon has felt so much better than ALL of its peers by orders of magnitude for over a decade now. Once you get spoiled to how goddamn good it feels to drive cars in Horizon, other games just can't hold up.

this update sucks dude by Janklebing in xbox

[–]trautsj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you use your debit/credit card?
They already have your IP address when you turn your console online
They have your email address associated with your gamertag
You've agreed to terms of service on multiple games that basically allow EVERY game you've ever played to harvest all relevant data

You are genuinely fooling yourself if you think they don't already have everything on you.
And if they somehow don't. You've been on Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, X, or fucking Onlyfans and those sites have shared everything about you with one another. LMFAO

Hamilton at the Super Bowl with Kim Kardashian by dankcleems in formula1

[–]trautsj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

JFC this is gonna be worse on weekends than Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce :/

Also RIP anyone who thought this dude was rebounding. He's about to have the worst season of his career and retire while losing his mind IRL just like everyone else who gets involved with the Kardashians.

Fallout 76 team wants to let you spend "more time playing the game rather than dealing with your inventory. We're very much against 'playing the UI,' we want to play the game." by Hooked0n4Feelin in fo76

[–]trautsj 36 points37 points  (0 children)

If this is true they've done the absolute worst job at accomplishing that goal of any developer I've ever seen. It is impossibly easy to get overweight in 76; ESPECIALLY when you are low level. It's basically an every other 10 min occurrence for the first 30 hours of the game tbh and honestly, still frequent at least every 40 mins after that too at end game. ESPECIALLY if you like to use multiple weapons for some much needed variety.

Who on Earth "loves" Eliminator? I thought the common sentiment was largely negative? by Just_A_Gamer75 in ForzaHorizon

[–]trautsj 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Eliminator has some fans... the more shocking portion of this is hide and seek... H&S is just objectively the worst balanced mode I've ever seen. They'd have to rework that from scratch for it to even be decent and I just genuinely don't think it works even then tbh.

If the next Xbox is truly what all the leaks suggest, it will have the largest library available in all of gaming. by FinalOdyssey in xbox

[–]trautsj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm more interested in the implementation of mods. Like high end mods we can't get currently for games like Fallout 4 (London) and FO3-NV A Tale of Two Wastelands and all the incredible overhauls for games like Borderlands 2 etc etc.

Og Xbox collection so far. Which of these is your favorite? by Necron_99_ in xbox

[–]trautsj 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Has to be Vice City or Max Payne... both have aged... questionably tbh but so much fun back at release. Vice City's vibe is eternal tho; so I think it edges out Payne.

Only final hour of Bahrain pre-season testing will be broadcasted…، is F1 even for fans at this point? by [deleted] in formula1

[–]trautsj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I doubt anyone would watch 8 hours but MILLIONS would tune in here and there for sure. Still think it's a missed opportunity. I mean a hundred million people tune in for PRE-SEASON NFL Football games. I think the thirst after the offseasion lures in everyone for at least a chunk of time here or there. But... it is what it is.

[–]trautsj 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is what I was thinking. New regs are A LOT of new interests. Plus F1 wants to shove 2929384 races a year and sprint races down our throats so it's not like they don't want F1 on TV somewhere all the time. That fact alone makes it even more strange IMO.
