Weapon attachments, a more on-the-fly equipment and gear game... Some small QoL items... Honestly aside from getting to ride the hype of a new release there isn't much to this iteration that "elevates" it beyond KF2. That's largely why I said it still needs time to cook. If you took everything that KF2 did right and polish the shit out of it, crank it to 11 so to speak, then I could see a full separate release as justifiable. This one is definitely feeling more like a rebase so that they can go even HARDER after micro transactions and battle pass monetization.

I just played the most recent round of stress testing after the initial invite-only beta a few months back. The game is in WAY better shape post-delay than it was initially, but I can't help but feel it still needs some significant additional time to bake. The devs definitely seem to be taking player feedback to heart, so I do have faith it could get to a good spot, but I'm personally going to wait for a steep sale to purchase, at which point it would ideally be patched into an even better place.

AND the workload goes up! The Financial Services industry sure is fun!

I'm probably mistaken, but I think there might actually be a plugin for this? I haven't looked into it myself but I swear I scrolled past a plugin listing similar functionality at some point. Or I could be hallucinating. Or it could even exist but no longer work on the current version of the app. Who knows!?

Fair enough! Anyone with existing 240v receptacles of any kind is a lucky duck, regardless.

I've already had the coolant valve fail... So what are the odds the iccu goes out immediately after, right!?

A 240V 20amp circuit I think would meet the needs of 99% of commuters in the US. If your average miles/kWh is around 3.3 and you're charging at 80% of the 20amp breaker limit (as you should be), even factoring in 10% losses in power transmission, you're still charging somewhere around 11 miles per hour. Easy 100+ miles overnight with zero infrastructure change outside of a couple wire nuts and a cheap charger. Hell, depending on local codes, you might get away with slapping in a nema 6-20 receptacle to make it even easier...

Ah, makes sense. I bought mine used and my state doesn't allow lemon claims on used vehicles, regardless of condition at time of purchase or status of warranty, so I'm SOL if it has a fundamental issue that the manufacturer decides not to solve.

And furthermore, you can share your internet from your computer, if running Linux, to other devices via Ethernet or WiFi! There may even be a super hacky way to do it through Bluetooth as well, but I'm gonna assume that wouldn't be worthwhile to pursue...

Did your iccu fail multiple times? Or were you able to file it as a lemon due to an unwilling/uncooperative dealership service center?

[–] Drathro@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

Oh goody, and I just bought a used Ioniq 6 last month! It's been in the shop for a couple weeks now for a failed coolant valve... Here's hoping the iccu issue is formally addressed before it seemingly inevitably fails on me! At least my dealership has been prompt about providing a rental and updates on status for this particular issue.

Literally finally let my windows partition upgrade to windows 11 last night. It took like 3 HOURS to do. Then I shrunk the partition way down and clean installed my Bazzite dual boot over the extra space and that took MAYBE 15 minutes. I use Windows MAYBE once every 6 months or so. Linux has just been the better experience for 99% of my computing and even gaming needs.
