When you accidentally skip a cut scene that actually looked interesting: wait- go back-

u/An3zz 7d ago

I hate it when I accidentally skip a cutscene and then I feel so bad that I actually just leave the game and load it again just so I can see the cutscene.

u/WhiteyFiskk 7d ago

Damn takes me back to 2005 Smackdown vs Raw, a mate told me there's a cutscene when you become champion that shows your wrestler having sex with one of the divas. I missed the cutscene and had to replay 3 or 4 matches to get it, only to find there was no nudity. The two of you go into a shower and you see her bra get thrown over the top, idk what 12 year old me was expecting but it was a let down.

u/3-DMan 7d ago

The anticipation kept building, by the time you got to it you would have let down by a full porn scene

Had to check if the username wasn’t shittymorph

When you skip a cutscene and it throws you into a huge fight in a totally different location, an important character is dead on the floor and your new objective is just “• Survive”

3

u/swans183 7d ago

Shout out to Halo Reach for “Survive”

u/Clone_Two 7d ago

that or you enter a hallway that you thought was unimportant only to have it lock you into a new area and advance the story.

2

u/KosherSyntax 7d ago

When you intentionally skip some cut scene that looks like just another boring conversation. But then you return to gameplay and everything around you is destroyed and on fire. And now you have accidentally skipped the biggest plot change..

u/jakart3 7d ago

Nah, that's too smooth

u/wombey12 7d ago

More accurate if it was that clip of Mr Bean arriving at the top of the escalator.

u/Technical-Outside408 7d ago

Your face is too smooth.

u/jopeters4 7d ago

Have you played the new God of War games? Very smooth.

u/Sometimes_Stutters 7d ago

This is for endurance racing. A bunch of my British and Italian coworkers routinely do 12hr cart races (team of 4-5 people) on weekends.

36

u/ripp102 7d ago

12hr? That’s a lot, but I get that, carts are fun

17

u/7HR4SH3R 7d ago

With 4 guys it's only 3 runs of an hour racing and 3 hours watching. It's not really that much track time over the 12 hours.

6

u/trying2t-spin 7d ago

if they’re only racing for 3 hours surely it’s 9 hours of watching right

13

u/JDtheProtector 7d ago

They are saying they have 3 runs of (1 hour racing and 3 hours watching), so 3 hours total of racing, 9 hours total of watching.

3

u/trying2t-spin 7d ago

Yeah that makes sense, I think it’s written a little unclear but maybe I’m just stupid

4

u/JDtheProtector 7d ago

Yeah, I had to re-read it a few times myself.

1

u/gsmumbo 7d ago

Thank you for clarifying. My mind was still trying to make sense of it lol

2

u/Thomas_The_Llama Xbox 7d ago

3 runs of 1 hour driving plus 3 watching

3

u/trying2t-spin 7d ago

honestly I feel like that still sounds like a lot of effort, even driving 3 hours in one day is a huge commitment, especially considering the downtime in between

6

u/RappersIsDerriere 7d ago

Well aye but they’re doing this because they enjoy it, it isn’t government mandated gocart racing - We only have to do 3 hours total of that a week

1

u/jakart3 7d ago

4x3=12

3

u/oi_i_io 7d ago

That sounds fun.

3

u/jazzmaster_YangGuo 7d ago

so how many times do they refuel? or thats also part of the endurance?

2

u/broonyhmfc 7d ago

iirc Quite a few times and they need to time it right as there is normally only one refueling station so they need to try not go in at the same time as another team or they will be sitting waiting.

1

u/Sometimes_Stutters 7d ago

Refueling is a mandatory time. Basically every team needs to stop for X time per refuel in order to keep things fair

2

u/Thrashy 7d ago

The driver change Hypercar teams wish they were allowed to try.

12

u/JordanPudds 7d ago

While I do love a smooth transition to gameplay, it's not always clear when you actually have to start doing something.

u/m0rejuice 7d ago

Usually black stripes disappear from top and bottom of the screen.

The transitions do be that swift

Favorite transition was Spider-Man going from cutscene to swinging in the city

Full clip?

Amazing to me how he secures the gas pedal first and then sets the other foot.

Driver San Francisco be like:

u/Superbird4300 7d ago

John, wake up!

u/BakedOnions 7d ago

no seatbelt?

i know that outdoor karts its safer but you also almost never have walls so close

17

u/Badittude64 7d ago

Good thing this video is shot indoors then, fucking send it!

15

u/36_potatoes 7d ago

u/BakedOnions meant it's safer to not use a seat belt when karting outdoor due to risk of flipping when going off track.

Indoors the risk of flipping is much much lower, but instead you have close walls all around the track, making seat belts a better choice because of higher risk of direct impacts.

4

u/Badittude64 7d ago

Your explanation makes sense and I'd like to retract a small portion of my sarcasm.

Excitement stays though WOOOO

3

u/BakedOnions 7d ago

yeah not sure why all the downvotes

the one time i took my wife indoor go-karting (electric) the attendant improperly did her seatbelt

even at 60% power she made a novice mistake and hit the wall head on and hit her chest into the wheel

it wasn't a nice feeling

the kart in the video is clearly a fast one, you hit a wall head on youll be superman

2

u/AakashMasani 7d ago

Hmm yeah its strange actually I've gone indoor karting in the UK a fair few times and never had a seatbelt. Never thought to question why

1

u/MyrKnof 7d ago

You can't have an over the shoulder seat belt in those small seats. The 1 point seat belt will just make you slap your face into the steering wheel with accelerated force. It's better for you to get flung instead of trapped under in case of it rolling over (extremely unlikely), as your head is the highest point.

1

u/36_potatoes 7d ago

The one time I did karting, they had one seat belt per shoulder (not sure how they were fastened so I don't want to say x-point, lol) and also a roll structure, which makes sense considering you're strapped to the thing. I think the classic way would still be better for outdoor karting with grass runoff, because you'd still have the risk of your arms flailing around and getting broken.

1

u/broonyhmfc 7d ago

With the lower speeds, circuit design, special crash barriers, low center of gravity, safety equipment, etc.

Indoor karting is very safe and it would be hard to cause serious injury even if you were trying to. If you sped straight towards a wall you would probably walk away with at worst a broken wrist / hand.

1

u/tehyosh 7d ago

how would you do a quick dismount for the purpose of this video with a seatbelt? and how do you know he wasn't wearing a seatbelt just before the video started?

1

u/RappersIsDerriere 7d ago

You answered your first question with your second there.

1

u/tehyosh 7d ago

it was rhetorical, but thanks

1

u/AggressiveSloth 7d ago

You want to be strapped to go kart that could flip?

-10

u/ausgmr 7d ago

Now try to do this in "hand simulator" karting

-11

u/Antarioo 7d ago

ehm....seatbelts?

9

u/flac_rules 7d ago

It's a go kart

-6

u/Antarioo 7d ago

yes...those usually have seatbelts. what's your point?

1

u/broonyhmfc 7d ago

Not any kart that I've ever seen.

1

u/flac_rules 7d ago

No they usually don't

1

u/Justtosayitsperfect 7d ago

immediately made me think of need for speed most wanted first mission on the blue bmw

1

u/EnduringFrost 7d ago

"Oh wow, this cut scene is pretty great! Wait, why is he driving into the wall--oh shit I'm driving" stutter, screeching, car crash noises

1

u/maaseru 7d ago

Rolling Start!

1

u/Pinstar 7d ago

So was this a relay race or did the current driver just have to pee?

1

u/Soomroz 7d ago

Where is the chaos that usually follows when you take over from a cut scene?

1

u/VoodooMonkiez 7d ago

I can’t tell if this is a competition or just friends messing around but if it’s a competition like an endurance race usually they require a minimum time in the pits for reasons like this.
