@11B_____ @DAZNBoxing Hmmm, I checked the hamster and it was dead. I've replaced it with a goat which is spinning my internet wheel. Seems to have sorted it, thanks for the top tip. Life saver.

@iAltAdj @DAZNBoxing Will do, thank you for messaging me, really appreciated.

So, I have a @DAZNBoxing Ultimate subscription (and had it for a year now), but when I want to watch the event tonight I have to pay £249? I'm assuming this is an error and I hope it is resolved soon as I'm missing the boxing.

Or, it's the Ultimate Piss Take.

@Brammflakes If it's giving the player an unfair advantage, which it is, and they use it with nefarious intent, and it is clear they are stream sniping, then to me, it's no different to any other tool (be that installed or other) to gain an unfair advantage.

Temp ban.

@Brammflakes you don't need to read 1,000 replies. I did it for you. 683 direct answers, counted and ranked. One issue got 134 mentions. The next one got 114. After that it drops fast. Here's exactly what the community wants changed, in order 👇

—

1. MORTAR / ARTY SPAM – 134 replies (1 in 5 people)
Cap 2 per FOB, ammo should cost more, kill the 3-shell burst, and remove the shell-follow camera. "A drone camera that scouts the whole base."

2. XP GRIND + THE WIPE – 114 replies
Class XP stalls after lvl 15, 40-60 hrs per class. Working adults say a monthly wipe means they quit. Faster XP, keep unlocks, or longer seasons.

3. HELIS – 103 replies
Too cheap, minigun birds too early, no counter, bulletproof glass, 90% of transport by air. Raise cost, add a cooldown or cap, no helis in the first minutes.

4. DRIVER XP – 75 replies
Worst grind in the game. Delivering then suiciding beats driving back. Reward round trips, pay logi for fuel and build materials, not just ammo.

5. DRILL SPAM – 74 replies
1 drill per FOB or per team, shared cooldown, more fuel. Towers are never used, every match turns into "sit in the mega-FOB".

6. INFANTRY / HOT ZONE NOT REWARDED – 60 replies
"You can make 100k building and spotting but lose 20k fighting." HZ multiplier, a real win bonus, pay for revives and repairs (repairs give zero).

7. SNIPERS & ARMOR – 45 replies
Too many snipers on towers, T3 helmets tanking sniper headshots, AP ammo unlocks too late.

8. TEAM BALANCE + BLUE – 38 replies (most-liked reply in the thread: "Change blue to yellow")
Auto-assign teams, block swaps after the first minutes, rotate spawns, fix Blue's camo and sandwiched HQ.

9. AA / SAM SPAM – 36 replies
SAMs up from minute one, lock-ons unavoidable, C-RAM melts helis in 2 sec. Longer reloads, per-FOB limit.

10. PARTY SYSTEM + SAVED LOADOUTS – 32 replies each
Queue with friends onto one team instead of spam-clicking Green. Kit presets instead of "rebuy last".

Also mentioned a lot: Humvee too tanky (C4 out the window), teammates looting downed players, reconnect after a DC, trucks that drive on ice.

And about 25 people said: change nothing mid-season, let it play out.

@IfindWankers This individual is playing a lawfully precarious game and ought to familarise themselves with R v McNally (2013) UK. True consent is not a matter to be considered 3 weeks later after the fact. Whilst we don't know how far the interaction went, failure to disclose is dangerous.

@Noam60473872676 As a man with much of my body covered in tattoos, I find the full anesthetic route to be the most underwhelming approach to body art. I love each and every one of my tats, I feel like I earned them because I had to endure them being applied. Perhaps this is an elitist view?

Bad Influence! (CITV, 1992–1996) was a UK kids’ tech and games show presented by Violet Berlin and Andy Crane.

Season 1 Episode 9 Violet demonstrates Lemmings on an Amiga.

First created on the Commodore Amiga it has appeared on almost every platform. Which did you first play it on?

@Computerlearn_ You may also want to determine what is causing the high CPU usage in the first instance, rather that going straight to the registry and butchering important .dlls, just a thought...

[CheckSum @SpectrumNerd]

@Computerlearn_ Interesting, I tried this in command prompt as admin and even rocked it in PowerShell; but it didn't increase the size of my C:/ by 100GB like yours did. I wonder if it's because I use a left-handed keyboard? Do you have any other commands to increase the size of my SSD? Ta.

@TheGameVerse I don't want to be "that" guy, but this can't be compared with a superhero game. It sits firmly in the "wealthy man with a propensity for violence and an interest in cool gadgets" genre. I'm Vengeance! (Ps - G.O.A.T of a game)
