TurboR56Mini got a reaction from Mikepjbell in GT 7
It's bullshit. In older GTs we could sell everything. That was the point, that's how you earned money. I don't like GT sport way either. We should be able to sell everything we don't want.

Then for me, i'm calling it out early and saying they will turn on this functionality later on down the line because the function must be there as it was in GT Sport. They clearly want people to gain money through other means atm. Feels abit scrougey if i'm brutally honest 😕

It was totally the Viking who won that day in my opinion.

TurboR56Mini reacted to L_C_Scipio in New old member trying to get back into things
Hi. I'm Nolan and I'm from South Carolina USA. Some of you may remember me, as I used to be pretty active on this forum since before it even was this forum (MW2Forums, I think it was? Alliance clan tore it up in Domination!) Looks like my last post was like three and a half years ago, though I would have sworn it wasn't nearly that long. Anyway, I've majorly jumped back into Destiny 2 since Witch Queen and I miss having people to talk to & play the game with. Last I was here we were running the Leviathan raid a lot so times have changed a little lol. I'll try to go update my PPR soon if that's still a thing we do around here, the gaming stuff from the past few years and maybe some of the personal stuff that's kept me away if anyone cares.
Anyway, hope to meet a lot of you soon.

Called up a week before the season and finishes 5th... kMag! Neat to see some new folks on the podium, when was the last 1/2 Ferrari finish?

Tidgney reminded me of the following:
If you enter the Manufacturers series you get given a Gr.4 and Gr.3 car for the duration that you can use for any race in the game. I chose Aston Martin.

I think it’s more points for Haas than the last 2 years combined! Magnussen was definitely the stand out for me, I don’t know how he didn’t get driver of the day.
Overall though some terrible luck for Red Bull and brilliant luck for Merc. Merc were way off the pace though, being 40 seconds or so off the leader at the safety car. I hope they can get on top of the car and make it a 3 way battle but that’s a lot of time to gain.
It was great seeing Ferrari on the podium again. All those years watching Schumacher I can still hum along to the Italian national anthem 😄

Eh, it's all good. I don't care either way. I also like that the Italian stallions are back in the running. I was getting tired of hearing the fan base bitch and moan. I think the Merc is still top tier they are just no longer OP. We are so used to them being OP that we forgot what competition felt like. Got a taste of that last year but new cars, new tech, new era. It should shape up to be a good year. I will be surprised if Merc is not in top 3. They are still not at mid field or back of pack levels. They also have incredible drivers.

This ^^
Also some people have disposable income to burn it seems. Or they just really want certain cosmetics.
I on the other hand can't afford MTX, so I just avoid them.

TurboR56Mini reacted to Greboth in Microtransaction Scandal
They didn’t universally slash prize money but they did rebalance it. Prior to the update a number of 1 and 2 lap races paid higher than 5 or 10 lap races. So they reduced the short races and buffed the higher. It does mean a reduction in how much you could earn per hour so while the rebalancing I agree the payouts are still low.
I also agree with Yamauchi about not playing the same race over and over to farm credits. The problem comes that after the cafe books the amount of credits you can earn does reduce. So with the FOMO with the limited offers, or having a £20mill car so early in the games life, it is going to push people towards micro transactions.
On the balance though, the games has been out 2 weeks so I find moaning they can’t buy all the most expensive cars already ridiculous. There should be an element of earning credits and having to think about what cars you buy, especially the exotic and legendary ones.
This is on top of that the numbered GT series have always been about the grind. Buying some second hand shitbox, racing it until you can modify it to do some more races and afford a slightly less shitbox. Rinse and repeat until you can eventually buy a shiny new car.
Forza Horizon is a perfect example of going to far the other way. You get given so many free cars and money that you can get gifted the best cars almost instantly. GT sport also fell in to this somewhat with the gift car for the daily marathon.
There’s also the element that people seem to focus on the game is complete when they finish the cafe books. Ignoring all the additional races the are available at the tracks.
So in summary, the payouts are a little low and there isn’t as many races as I thought there would be. But I think they’re a knock off a point or 2 off the rating rather than the bombing it’s had and overall I’d still recommend the game to anyone that’s a fan of the series.

Good for you, Doc. Usually people are looking for that step to get to retirement as early as possible 😄 but you've always loved your job it seems.
And if it gives us more stories out and about with the scenes then it's good for us all!

TurboR56Mini reacted to Docwagon in My days as a real cop draw to an end...
About a month ago I got word from the brass that I was presumptive 'next up' for any openings in Homicide, but no opening was expected for a few years. NP, I'm fine parked where I am. Thursday I got a call from the Homicide Captain asking if I'd be interested in Night LT spot, the current LT decided to retire abruptly. We haggled out hours and the like, and unless that LT backs out of his retirement at the last minute I'll most likely be taking over next month.
I won't have my own office any longer, physically or literally. There are four Homicide shifts (Day, Middle, Late Tac, and Late). I'll have Late Tac and Late. Still have about the same number of detectives and 2 sergeants, though. I share an office with the Day LT, but our hours don't overlap so it's more of a 'don't hang pictures on these two walls' sort of deal. I still have a window.
I'm excited to get back to going to scenes, to having some more involvement in real police work, etc.
