Wonder why we never got overclocks for perks

It’s probably a silly proposition but I feel like maybe the overclocks that we have for field upgrades, streaks and tacticals and lethals could also be applied to perks.

I wanna preface this by saying this would require reworking the hell out of the current perk system and possibly stripping back color perk specialties but it would be an interesting trade. Basically the Pro Perks for MW2 2009 but with 2 choices. You’d essentially have to level up every perk, forcing some variety and it could make for some interesting choices. Imagine 2 overclocks for something like Fast Hands, one for a flat 50% increase to all full auto and semi auto weapons and another for faster deployment of field upgrades and nades (without having to go triple green for that perk selection bonus).

I understand the perk specialty vision for BO6, I just don’t understand it for BO7.

Where is Fifa Street?

We haven’t had a FIFA Street iteration since 2012, I almost had to run my eyes and see it wasn’t a mistake. 14 years without one of the most memorable expansion/payable DLC in years (I know it was more than that but it’s a way to describe it).

I understand that Volta was a way to integrate that aspect of a street football sim into the full game but that failed horribly and for good reasons too. EA forgot that what makes FIFA Street work is a separate mechanic system from full title to street football. It’s the reason why most of the skill moves you could perform in FS4, you couldn’t do in FIFA 12.

Wonder if there would even be appeal for it. There’s a whole generation of players that have never known such games were commonplace, especially people who picked up the series around FIFA 15 onwards. People my age (mid 20s and up) would probably want to relive said moments again but EA’s thought process behind making said game would be in line for what they have for current titles: monetisation at every angle, neutering the experience FS actually is about.

What do you guys think? Would a FS5 be something to look forward to?

How much should an air intake/air filter change cost?

Morning lads. Recently bought a car 4 months ago, a 2016 Note X16. Import bought from a dealer, warranty was only 3 months tho. Like 2 months in, there’s a whistle coming from pushing on the accelerator to get up to speed. That whistle goes away once you’re still on the same speed. Thought nothing of it but did ask around and was generally given the same explanation: the air filter might be dirty but you only got the car and it came fully serviced.

Fast forward to last Monday, the accelerator pedal now feels “heavier”. Getting past 2 revs now takes you near putting the pedal to the floor and getting to 60 km/h used to take 2 seconds, it’s longer now. I had to get AA expertise and take it back to the garage, only for them to put it down to fuel (put Applegreeen petrol in the tank for the first time, usually only Circle K). I’ve inquired further and it’s clear that it might be the air intake system. Thing is I don’t know fully what that would cost. Not even fully sure if that’s the actual problem itself.

Any advice? I’m not too well versed in any issues outside what may appear as a warning light, and this isn’t one of them

24M here. Been on and off the gym since I was 18 but in the last 8 months, been serious with my routine. I’ve tried everything for as long as it stuck. Bulking + weights, cutting + cardio, and a myriad of diets. I’ve been fluctuating between the same 10kg range for the last 6 years but from 3 years ago to present day, that range is now 5kg.

Even at my lowest weight, my appearance isn’t “lean”. I still have the big chested features I’ve trying so hard to get rid of (might be rib-cage size related) and a passing comment from around Christmas time that I appeared as stocky, a period where I was eating the least amount of calories I could maintain, has stuck with me.

Is this just how it is? Do I forget trying to appear as lean as possible and just look healthy while feeling bigger? Or is there another way (fast track ways like weight loss pills exempt)?
