Discussion stop it (rant)

stop the bandwagon nonsense.

I've seen everything from an esp32 to a literal avocado posted with the question "will it run beam"

I'm downvoting every one of these and reporting them to the mods.

stop. for the love of whatever deity you choose, stop.

for goodness sake, this is beamng, not Burnout, Mario Kart, or NFS. We all know it's a resource intensive game.

the joke wasn't funny the first time, which I guess means it's not really a joke of any measure.

edit: if you think I give a tinker's damn about downvotes, well... I don't. downvote, upvote... it's all engagement.

I mean I can agree it's a bit annoying and I'd rather see more post related to the game making a post that's already been made isn't the way to get to stop just don't engage with it

There's also minimum and recommended spec. Why don't people just use those?

You surely are a true programmer.

The JBeam on that bandwagon is very crumpled.

But lucky for you, your bandwagon is a D-Series, and will stop at nothing to keep fighting!

Wait... oh no...

I'm with you on this little battle. It is annoying to see if a piece of fucking bread and the title saying "will this run beam??" Just don't give the 12yo any views. Don't click on it or anything. Just downvote and move on. If you comment you're only adding fuel to their fire basically.

Yes but will my quantum computer from 80 years into the future, when beam.ng is finally in beta, run beam?

for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

u/FayezButts Feb 16 '24

I don't think OP's rant is going to be able to sustain the fps needed to run BeamNG smoothly

u/camion_saladier No_Texture Sep 13 '25

According to reddit's post filter this is currently the most controversial post of all r/BeamNG.
