Some don't find killing AI and buildings interesting, I'd put myself into that group.

Explain the toolshedders that infest AH then?

I cant afford IRacing, add in the equipment you need to compete and just forget about it. I dont have that kind of time or money to invest in it. I love racing, even built a simpit for it to hold my TM stuff, but I just cant keep up.

All of it minus the dirt. IMSA is my favorite

I’m not even gonna go look at any of that stuff. You people have done enough adding to the inferno that is now my wallet. I had to stop myself from looking at Pimax Crystals just yesterday. I bought a new PC rig for flying AH and “other sims,” a terrific HOTAS setup for same. I bought modules, planes and assorted stuff for same as well. What I can’t buy is time. I’ve barely flown in any of them. Do I give up beer league softball, pickle ball or biking for this? I’d rather not but when rain season hits, I’m flying more for sure. I've been contemplating retirement for the last 2 years too. We shall see.
Damnit! I’m at least gonna google Iracing.

I stand by that statement. He created a problem with ENY and now he is selling a solution that was previously banned or at least frowned upon. It has the effect of bringing in "Free" money with little to no effort, similar to pay to win mechanics. It's basically a welfare check, money for nothing. (But the Chicks aint free)
Cool. I'm just saying don't get upset when you disparage a company on said company's forum and then get a warning for it, lmao.

Hitech should be prepared for disaparagment of his game when he makes stupid decisions that majorly effect the gameplay.

While HTC may have had a few extra accounts by a squad who has nothing else to do with their lives, he's lost tremendously more subs over the last 5 months guaranteed. Remember, one squad alone was responsible for 6,000 kills in March and 6,500 kills in April with over 1,450 hours played chasing hundreds of players out of the game, on top of the summer short we usually see. These severely skewed actual #s to compare YoY. Completely killed any momentum the game had from MOA.

I'm not going to pay for gabrage gameplay anymore, and neither are hundreds of players who are tired of the BS.

HTCs refusal to acknowledge poor garbage gameplay results in less subs than we've seen for a long time, as he continues to find ways to make the game worse and worse through giving up all strategy in the game.

Whels got me into project cars for a bit. PC2 is really good PC3 not so much.

Unfortunately I currently suffer a combat commute from hell to work and back. Last thing I'm mood for is a driving sim. However I'm absolutely down to fly around blow stuff up.

Didn't know what all the noise was about when ht made the bbs announcement...thought ppl were overreacting...

After months of being hunted nightly I understand their concern

A cancer was released into the game.
.the only question is was it on purpose and planned or just a very poor business decision..

I just retired earlier this year. I repaired vending machines for a living a drove 200+ miles a day when I was working. Best part of the day was driving someplace new. Problem was after 40+ years doing it there weren't too many "new" places left. Still working on the "honey do" list, but maybe this winter I can spend some time driving again.

Some talk of "Community" on the last page. That sort of left when we started getting a lot of folks who do not play AH anymore just coming in and disrupting the "Community".

Some of you guys might thoroughly enjoy Farming Simulator.  Laid back, goal oriented, strategical, and no competition.  It's my go to when I need a break.
