But I <3 the Jeep. I kill myself in it regularly. Sometimes it roll. Or fall off the bridge. DOH. It too fast.

That sounds SO FUN. I might need to get that game just for that.

It's like driving the Warthog in Halo 2 during a free-for-all game. you probably won't kill anyone (no gunner), but it's just fun to jump over hills and roll over and stuff. :p

So how many vehicles are there for me to potentially crash?

I'm thinking that I really need to get this game. Crashing vehicles is fun.

I used to play Grand Theft Auto 3 and cheat to get infinite health JUST so I could steal cars and drive them around.

Second level was my favorite. Found this crazy as all hell ramp where you could drive under the street to gain speed, and then jump the auto-shop. SO MUCH DAMN FUN! I also got really good at driving STRAIGHT at the water, and rolling out just in time to save myself from drowning, but letting the car go engine-roaring off the bridge and into the water... So sweet, man.

GTA3 is like crack for people like me.

Hmm... And Jen made a comment about my driving, and then I go off on how I used to love doing insane stunts with cars...

Irony?

Sweet. :cool:

Classic. Me and my friend do that on a regular basis in Blood GUlch.

One time we did all vehicles, got three ghosts in one tree, and all 8 warthogs on top of one base. Got a tank up there too. Played that game for about 5 hours straight, doing only that. LOL.

Best thing to do? In GTA: VC, get a bike, smash it up, drive it on the ramp that goes up to the building so that it's slow-mo and you burst into flames. Looks so damn cool.

o_O How do you manage that? Use the Warthogs as ramps for the tank?

Mainly luck. We were messing around, and I got the tank on top of the other right next to the base, then it went on top.

Took us 30 mins to get all three ghosts to stay in the tree. I accidentally died one time on top of the tree, and my legs/arms/head were all disconnected from my body.

All 8 warthogs? Took us a LONG time. We put he tank up against the base, then rode this hill on top of it and slid onto the base. Took us a while. I only got 3 while he got 5 up there. T_T

Halo? I love doing mad stunts in that game.

Getting vehicles onto the top of the base isn't that hard actually, there's a special trick involving a rocket launcher and a driver driving the jeep head on into the base (*evil grin*)

But you want to know what's better than crashing a vehicle? Roadkill. Whenever I feel like being stupid I park a banshee in the middle of nowhere and sit by with a rocket launcher. Whenever someone goes and sees "Oh look, there's a banshee!" and goes over to board it....KABOOM! Banshee goes flying off into the horizon and the geek's cursing at me for killing him. Good times, good times.

Yea, tanks can get on top of the base if you do it right without even doing much. Once to get my coward little brother out of the base I plugged a tank on top of him and chugged grenades down a few random holes. He didn't come out...alive.

Once I parked a Warthog on top of a rock and started picking off people with the turret. That was until a guy got ticked and used a sniper rifle (because he couldn't get to the rocket :D)

But BF2 is bigger and better at this sort of stuff. My cousin has the demo.

if you have the sword, get an enemy banshee by you, get in the passenger seat of the hog, and when the banshees near press attack and hold, then get the bansheeto fly hig, you, when you get out of the hog, will go in the air witht he banshee or to where it was. you must not let go of the atack button.

anyway, on thime i was driving scorpian and i was hit by the bullet of a ghost. I flew across the ENTIRE course going so high that i could have gotten on the mountains (this was in blood gulch). I landed on, in the base. killed myself in thee later. I got a hog up there by going in the air and having an enemy shoot a rocket under me. ahhh, what fun.

lol i dont know how this got to halo, but a kick ass thing to do is get 2 scorpion tanks ( on halo 2) and go to coagulation, now flip a tank completly over so that its weels are up in the air, then drive the other tank on top of it like a ramp, make sure all the wheel are touching the bottom set of wheels, now heres the fun part, go to the bottom tank and flip it , if u did this righ the tank on top should go into a flippin frenzy of death

but anyway, im 99 looking for a hot 15 year old babe... any of u know any?

A little edit on my creepy comment..

If your 30+ But running the site, your good to go (in my wonderful opinion)

But if your just casually on and your getting near 30... You might wanna take up golfing or fishing.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
