I love to listen to synthwave/outrun/chiptune music. Also a huge fan of all the music from the X series by GOATs like Alexei Zakharov. :neonp:
I enjoy time with my animal friends--namely my two dogs Goku & Kamiko:questheart:
I am also a big space sci-fi nerd. Fantasy too!
I value education & learning new things.
And if a word could describe me it would be; whimsical.:KentWinning:
I accept most friend request
I don't trade anything ever--do not ask. I am not programmed for such things.

Best stage when at Sweden--Hof Finnskog! Translates into something like "Eternal Road of the Ice Demon" if I remember correctly :D

✅Highly recommended for fans of WRC, Dirt Rally games, immersive simulations, challenging multiplayer experiences, or just epic rally experiences.


📋EA WRC is the official video game of the FIA World Rally Championship, delivering all the current WRC, WRC2, and Junior WRC cars, along with 68 legendary cars spanning over 60 years of rallying history.The advanced Dynamic Handling System ensures a realistic feel on various surfaces, whether dirt, gravel, sand, mud, asphalt, ice or snow. The stages themselves are massive this time along with improved, cutting-edge visuals. With 17 different locations, 5 different game modes, the return of Clubs and the all new Rally School, there's a lot of content packed into this game for under $50 USD.

🚦Note: While this is an EA game, you'd be hard pressed to believe it with this game. There's a massive amount of content packed into WRC and it cost far less than their other games. Worth mentioning too it currently doesn't have any micro-transactions of any sort! And you can enjoy the bulk of the game without having to be logged into the internet.



🚙Start your engines, it's time for a shakedown!🚩


🔶In WRC, you're not just driving; you're experiencing the heart-pounding world of competitive rally racing, where precision, speed, and control are paramount. The game's meticulous attention to detail and realistic mechanics set the stage for an epic rally adventure as you compete in various locations around the world. Each event presents a unique challenge, from treacherous weather conditions to varied terrains and unpredictable surfaces that change numerous times throughout a single stage, making each rally a distinct and thrilling experience you won't soon forget.

🚧 Note: At launch, many of us, myself included had performance issues but those have since been remedied after the first patch.



🎮 Gameplay 🕹️


🔶WRC supports just about every device known to man in terms of your prefered gamepad controllers, racing wheels, shifters, handbrakes and more.

🔶You no longer need to have a constant internet connection to enjoy the best features the game has to offer this time around.

🔶There's multiple game modes to play, from Career Mode, Custom Championships, Moments where you relive iconic events in rally history or highlights from the latest season, the return of Clubs, Quick Play and the new Rally School for newcomers and veterans alike to learn and develop new skills and techniques.

🚦Note: If you really want to feel the car come alive, driving without any assist is the way to go!

🔶In career mode, you start with a basic sponsorship and rally car, but as your journey unfolds, you'll be able to recruit engineers, unlock powerful upgrades for your chief engineer, obtain team mates and aquire aditional funds to buy more powerful machines to compete in higher categories and events. Your choices in tuning and upgrades dramatically impact your strategy and how your rally career will develop, especially if you opt into using your own custom built rally cars where you'll be able to research and unlock powerful new components to use.

🛣️"If in doubt, flat out." - Colin McRae🚗

🔶 In WRC, the thrill of competitive rallying comes to life with a variety of authentic rally cars, each with its own unique handling characteristics and performance attributes. From iconic models like the Lancia Delta S4 to the latest WRC Hybrids, the game offers a diverse selection of cars to choose from!

🔶WRC boasts a lot of new customization options like the ability to build your own rally cars from scratch or the new livery editor. Ever wondered what Ferrari would bring to the table if they created a modern day rally car? Now you can with a sprinkle of creativity and imagination!

🔶What stands out in EA WRC is the attention to detail in the overall rally experience. Each stage feels unique thanks to using real world locations along with the dynamic weather system, stage degradation and seasonal settings.

🔶Other factors that stand out are the much improved force feedback, super accurate co-driver callouts, revamped physics for gravel & tarmac, improved handling that gives you a better feeling of weight transfer, the revitalized hardcore damage that gives hiring engineers purpose or my personal favorite; the new tire model that is much more dynamic in terms of tire wear rates and the effects of them falling off.



⚖️ What I like and dislike about this game
PRO'S ✔️
CON'S ❌
✔️Improved handling & physics
❌Poor Performance for some users, mainly using older GPU's
✔️Ridiculous amount of content & customization options
❌Learning curve for newcomers
✔️Internet Connection is only needed for Multiplayer & Leaderboards
❌UE4 shaders compiling creates stutters when you visit a new location
✔️Epic Force Feedback that allows you every little detail
❌Random Events are noticably missing from stages
✔️New & Improved Tire and Hardcore Damage Models
❌Unable to mix tire compounds on cars similar to IRL
✔️Breathtaking, massive, realistic stages with degradation & dynamic weather
❌Paid $40 for this. Should of paid a lot more.



🎨Artwork & Graphics🖼️


🔶The attention to detail in the cars' designs, hand crafted environments, surface degradations and dynamic weather effects make it a visual treat that never gets old. The immersive breaking texture pop-in that plagued Dirt Rally games is completely absent this time around too!

🎧Soundtrack & Audio 🎹

🔶The soundtrack is an awesome mix of adrenaline-pumping tracks that can be heard in menu's and in replays.

🔶The sound effects for this game are outstanding, with engines roaring, tires screeching, gravel pinging against the floorboard that combined creates an immersive atmosphere and true to life rally soundscape.



🏁Conclusion🏁


💖 WRC is a love letter to rally fans the world over that oozes with passion and love from the developers. It doesn't just capture the essence of piloting powerful rally cars; it embodies the rally tradition and challenges of mastering different cars, terrains and in different weather conditions. At its essence, it's pure rally bliss.

📋EA SPORTS WRC manages to deliver an adrenaline-filled racing experience, complete with a satisfying simcade driving model, a plethora of great stages, and engaging choices to make in terms of progression over your career. The game is not without its flaws however, and the occasional performance hiccups on some PC's is frustrating but the rewards far outweigh any shortcomings this game has.

Well done to EA/Codies! Absolutely masterclass work!

☑️Highly recommended for fans of giant mechs, immersive simulators, co-op mayhem, or epic battles.

📋MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries is an exhilarating action mech simulator that drops you right into the cockpit of massive war machines. It's a game that will transport you to the future of mechanized warfare, offering endless excitement and replayability. If you have a passion for commanding towering battle mechs, this game is a must-play, providing countless hours of enjoyment with all the content the game has to offer mods withstanding.

🎯 Note: Speaking of DLC's--keep an eye on special offers and discounts; MechWarrior 5 and its DLC's often goes on sale, offering a great opportunity to dive into the world of mechs for peanuts.

🤖 The year is 3015...War rages on...

🔷In MechWarrior 5, you're thrust into a war-torn 31st-century universe, where factions vie for control, and colossal mechs are the ultimate weapons. The game's rich lore and backstory set the stage for an epic adventure as you lead your own band of mercenaries in this tumultuous future. As you progress, navigating the political quagmire of the Great Houses becomes more precarious as your reputation proceeds you for your services. This leads to any number of play throughs as siding with certain Successor State's can change the course of your campaign and lock you off from missions, quest and rewards depending on the side you chose to help.

🎮 Gameplay 🎮

"All Systems Nominal" - Betty

🔷MechWarrior 5 is a love letter to fans of classic mech combat. It not only captures the essence of piloting these giant machines but also embraces the challenging learning curve and the strategic depth of the genre. Master said mechanics takes time and dedication.

⚠️Warning: Newcomers may find the intricacies of mech customization and piloting a bit daunting at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's incredibly rewarding.

🎯Note: For those who prefer a more straightforward experience, you can simplify the controls to play more like an FPS and customize numerous aspects to the difficulty to suit your play style and skill-set.

🤖Got to catch em' all!

🔷 In the year 3015, the flames of war continue to engulf the galaxy, and the battlefield is dominated by an array of formidable battle mechs. These towering war machines include iconic models such as the Spider, Zeus, Battlemaster, Orion, Griffin, Archer, Blackjack, Hunchback, Grasshopper and many more, each with their own unique variants, combat capabilities and loadouts. Top of that, each mech has a common, rare and hero variant to collect with hero variants being the most sought after for their special paint schemes, quirks and loadouts that usually make them far stronger than their counterparts.

🔷 With additional DLCs, MechWarrior 5 boasts an even more extensive roster of mechs and variants expanding the total count quite a bit to provide an even greater variety options to utilize and explore during combat.

🔷What stands out with MechWarrior 5 to me is the sheer variety it offers players. Each mission feels unique, thanks to the dynamic mission system and the extensive range of mechs and loadout options available.

🔷You start with a basic mech, but as your journey unfolds, you'll collect and customize more powerful war machines. Your choices in weaponry and equipment dramatically impact your playstyle and tactics.

🔷After each mission, you're rewarded based on your performance and the objectives you completed, allowing you to upgrade you to take 'shares' earned to salvage new mechs and equipment which in turn you'll use to enhance your mechs, build new mechs and expand your mercenary company.

⚖️ What I like and dislike about this game
PRO'S ✔️
CON'S ❌
✔️Immersive mech combat
❌Ray Tracing performance is horrid
✔️Extensive customization options
❌Steep learning curve for newcomers
✔️Epic, fully destructible, dynamic missions
❌Lack of comprehensive tutorials

❌Could use some more QoL features in certain aspects
✔️CGI cut-scenes are epic, especially from DLC's
❌Occasional bugs and glitches

❌Long load times on some systems

🎨Artwork & Graphics🖼️

🔷MechWarrior 5 boasts some of the best visuals you can lay eyes on that bring these colossal war machines to life. The attention to detail in the mechs' designs, the destructible environments, and the immersive world-building make it a visual treat that never gets old.

🔷The game captures the essence of futuristic warfare, combining cutting-edge 3D assets with detailed 2D textures to create a visually captivating experience that is sure to please if you are a big fan of mechs or just really delicious science fiction.

🎧Soundtrack & Audio 🎹
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3v7cdLwQtpI

🔷The soundtrack of MechWarrior 5 enhances the experience, with a mix of epic orchestral pieces and futuristic tunes.

🔷The sound effects for this game are outright incredible. Guns sound punchy, explosions sound crispy, hot, gassy and I swear I can even hear the air hiss as it ignites from super heated plasma lasers. It's so very good sounding to your ears and will really immerse you in the world of Mech Warrior.

📖Conclusion

🟣 MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries is a game that truly delivers on the fantasy of piloting massive mechs in a future where war knows no bounds. While it's not without its challenges, the rewards far outweigh the learning curve. The vast array of mechs, customization, and dynamic missions keeps the gameplay fresh and engaging, and the rich universe adds depth to the overall experience.

This game is perfect for mech enthusiasts and co-op aficionados alike. It's an immersive journey into the world of mechanized warfare, offering countless hours of gameplay.
