Another awesome FG GTA Friday. We got 11 on for most of the night and I think the game chat held up quite well apart from the constant noise coming from @Amnotright's mic Too many epic fails from me I think and even @Diddums won which I am disappointed in all of you that you didn't stick to the one rule of GTA Racing. If you have any recordings can you upload to YouTube and get the link over to @Greboth ASAP for this weeks video!

Fucking aussies are such a bunch of arrogant cunts. Couldn't happen to a nicer team.

Thanks Tommy. Sam also told me yesterday. I was wondering why we hadn't much posts from Murica. I'm on to this. We need it updating. Little frustrated as its still not updated since March 2017. Ticket raised and I'll keep checking back to give updates ASAP. (This is why we need our own one we 100% own).

How do people feel about a sort of levy? Running the forum is important and costs money but it's what we use as a family'home' FGFGF is important cuz it's for the family that use the home whether their newbies or old codgers. So, unless it's a 'special case/emergency' why not use 10% of each donation and put it towards running costs. If you get too much (that's good because people have been generous) put some back in the pot. Let people opt out if they prefer but it just makes it simple for donors That's my £0.02. Any thoughts people?

God I love seeing Barca get their asses handed to them. Well played Roma

can't say i'm in any rush to blame the victim here. i'm aware of unpopular choices YT made relatively recently which fucked with how content creators make their money. however -- and maybe this is just me getting older -- i can't drum up a lot of sympathy for folks who rely on posting videos for their income when mayyyybe they should've just gotten a real job. same deal with the Angry Party Pooper dog guy -- on one hand i'd like to think i'm a proponent of free speech, but on the other hand it's really difficult for me to sympathize with a "shitposter."

So, I thought it might be an idea to discuss a regular spot to add to the calendar for us all to meet up and game. Not everyone will be able to make it every week but it would be good to have a regular night ingrained into our collective consciousness. It will be tricky for some of the guys in the states for midweek but even if there's a mostly UK midweek meet up I'm happy to play at the weekend too. I'd like to get a gist of what people can and can't do, plus the games they have at their disposal. I'll provide mine below. We have a few more of us now able to play on PC and it'd be great if we can get something started. If there's enough interest and (heaven forbid) a clash of choice of games, we can even put game selections on rotation, or work it out in a manner acceptable to all. Phil's availability. Mon-Friday: 9pm UK time to 1am UK time. Thursdays are best but any day is usually fine for me if I give Mina advance notice. Weekend: I'm available anytime and into the small hours so let's say 1pm UK time to 4am UK time. Games I could play, in no particular order: DayZ (once the impending update hits) Arma 3 PUBG Overwatch 7 Days to Die (once the new patch hits though I can be tempted before patch too) Star Citizen (not until at least Diddums and Lee are ready to go, otherwise it's just me I think) The Division Rainbow 6 Sea of Thieves, Black Flag was better, Mincecraft Escape From Tarkov League of Legends Battlefield 4 or 1 or even 3 lol XCom 1 or 2 I have more I could list so don't be shy if I haven't mentioned a game you'd like to play.

It’s the sort of behaviour that got their ancestors a ticket to Australia in the first place

Oh fuck it is! Lee did you set that one or did I? We have some classics set up. Time for a few more

Weapon charms is just stupid. Who really cares about that? Interrested in the new smg, but obviously not gonna pay for it. I like that you no longer have to go to HQ to get contracts and challenges.

Haha, hiya Brede Family is good, thanks for asking. The gutter face comment is very distasteful

I'm not ginger. Hiya Mr Crack. Hope all is well with you. I still have internet issues but I'm almost there. I'll be playing again soon

We’re even doing this at our bowls club, but at that level, it’s basically common sense

I could try it, I played a long time ago and stopped at TH7 or 8, because I hated paying for walls.

I uninstalled it quite some time ago. But I've been looking for a phone game to play. I'll reinstall and check it out. Via the FG App

Hell yeah! Some memories came back watching that. DI for life! Via the FG App

I'll do more of these, if people want to start saving clips.

This week it's @TigerBurge early Destruction Inc montage to be shared across FG!

Can't remember if I've posted one of these threads before but here's anyway. Spotted yesterday:

Now why you badmouth Trevor like that?!

Honestly last night was the most fun I've had in ages, thanks to all who participated. I think Kyla's viewing time was cut in half due to having to pause from me laughing so much

I’m sure there’s a gag about the rest of the group in there but......

The Darkness 2 free on HB for 48 hours https://www.humblebundle.com/store/the-darkness-ii

Fixed that for you!

This is huge news in sport and so they should be hung and quartered by the press. What was more disappointing was the news conference admitting it all. It's like they just didn't care. 'Yep, we planned it. Ah well, sorry. Won't happen again.' If this was England we'd be all over them. Massive repercussions in store for them.

Modern Warfare 2 Remastered without the multiplayer is like a salad without lettuce.

Hi all, just as an example how would a picture of upcoming stuff work with an event backing them up? I could also then post it on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. Would it get you interested and joining in? Just an idea and it's okay to say it wouldn't btw. Need geniune feedback. Cheers. Via the FG App

This is pointless with MP, sort out the MP and i'll think about it.

Someone if this is a crime John Cheese should have been hung for the faulty towers episode. However I did read this gem looking for news coverage

More new rumours today suggest that the game isn't being made by Raven, will cost $25 and is single player only!? https://charlieintel.com/2018/03/21/sources-call-of-duty-modern-warfare-2-remastered-has-no-mp-not-developed-by-raven/ This is too bizarre to be true unless they plan to release the single player now and then finish the MP for release next year. This is so ludicrous I honestly believe it will happen as not even the biggest bullshitters in the industry could make this level of shit up.

Pretty funny stuff

Star Citizen Patch 3.1.0 We are excited to announce the release of Alpha Patch 3.1.0 to all Star Citizen backers. This update marks the first of four quarterly patches planned to be released this year, and the inaugural success of the new delivery schedule. At the start of the year, our internal teams underwent a restructuring to allow for easier coordination and focus on a particular aspect or feature. Thanks to this new approach, the development team was able to more efficiently tackle the goals outlined for 3.1 on our Production Roadmap and introduce several new gameplay features and optimizations to Star Citizen. Starting with Alpha 3.1, players will find new ways to interact with each other. The Character Customizer is now accessible from the main menu and allows players to distinguish their avatars with various combinations of hair style, skin tone, and more. This is just our first iteration of the system and we have a lot more planned for future releases, but even at this early stage it is exciting to see all the new and varied faces exploring the halls of Port Olisar and Grim HEX. Starting with this patch, players will also be able create Service Beacons from the Contract Manager in their mobiGlas and hire other players to provide Combat Assistance or Personal Transport. This new system will be a huge boon to players who may need a ride back to a station from the wilds of Crusader’s three explorable moons, and represents a whole new revenue stream for players willing to lend their combat skills to aid others. This feature is also an initial iteration that will be improved and expanded in future releases, but it’s an important step in further developing the kind of emergent gameplay that is intended for the Persistent Universe. Not only that, the bevy of new flyable ships and open-canopy vehicles introduced in this patch will provide players exciting options for crewing up and exploring the Stanton system together. Measuring over 150 meters, the Reclaimer is the largest ship currently in-game. This heavy industrial salvage ship from Aegis Dynamics is so massive that the environment art team has expanded Port Olisar’s landing pads to accommodate it. Explorers will want to get behind the sticks of the Anvil Terrapin. The ship’s robust shield system and distinct layered armor make it ideal for exploring untamed space. Racers looking to experience breakneck speed can climb into the MISC Razor. The ship will be a perennial Murray Cup contender thanks to advanced Xi’an thruster technology and a streamlined design. Plus, exploring Crusader’s moons just got more exciting with the addition of the Aopoa Nox Kue and Tumbril Cyclone. The Nox Kue is a special variant of the renowned Xi’an open-canopy racer that Aopoa redesigned specifically for Humans. The Tumbril Cyclone is a rugged off-road ground vehicle ready to tackle any terrain. Both vehicles are perfect for traversing Cellin, Daymar, and Yela, which also received upgrades in Alpha 3.1, thanks to planetary technology improvements that updated surface textures and topography for more visually dynamic and detailed landscapes. Additionally, the development team polished many of the exciting features that launched with the 3.0 patch in December. Updates to the IFCS (flight control), AI, the Personal Manager tool on each player’s mobiGlas, ship weapons, ship damage physics and overall performance optimization, all are working in concert to improve the overall Star Citizen gameplay experience. NEW FEATURES Character Customizer With this feature, players can adjust aspects of their character’s physical appearance, such as face shape, eye color, hair style, and skin tone. Logout Improvements Players can now safely logout from major stations like Levski, Grim HEX, and Port Olisar. This will persist between sessions for when players log back into the game. Pirate Hunter Player will now earn virtue reputation for killing NPC pirates. Interdiction and Quantum Jamming AI pilots can now carry Quantum Jammers aboard their ships. These devices produce a field which stop Quantum Drives from being able to function. Players who are interdicted will now first have to destroy ships carrying Jammers before they can Quantum Travel away to safety. Service Beacons Service Beacons have been introduced to the PU economy. Using the mobiGlas, players can create and customize “Personal Transport” or “Combat Assistance” contracts that will be made available to other players to complete for the agreed upon payment. After the contract ends, players will be able to review each others performance with a positive or negative rating. Combat Markers The old Combat Markers were replaced with new 3D versions that include target brackets, hit indication, and missile locks. Visor Screen The visor screen has had additional hit effects for shields and hull areas added to the displays for your ship and targeted ships. A new MFD screen has been added allowing players to customize the view angles of the target/self visor screens. New Ships and Vehicles Tumbril Cyclone Aegis Reclaimer Anvil Terrapin MISC Razor Nox Kue New Ship Weapons PRAR Distortion Scatterguns Salvation (size 4) Absolution (size 5) Condemnation (size 6) APAR Ballistic Scattergun Havoc (size 1) Hellion (size 2) Predator (size 3) KBAR 10-Series Greatsword Ballistic Cannon (size 2) AMRS Omnisky IX Laser Cannon GATS Yellowjacket Ballistic Gatling (size 1) CF-557 Galdereen Repeater (size 5) Star Marine KSAR Custodian Energy SMG GMNI R97 Ballistic Shotgun You can find the full patch notes for Alpha 3.1.0 here.

Certainly miss that ginger whinger! Am I the only one who would like to see all those maps brought back exactly as they are but with higher resolution/better quality graphics? I would probably pay good money for them as well

Ah unlucky, starting off is always good fun though. Hopefully we can get you some extra goodies with the clan games.

Another awesome night on GTA races. I don't think there's another fitting game to play on a Friday night with a few beers and all of your company. First time for a while I won a few races, whilst Cal won quite a few too. In fact, everyone pretty much won. Apart from Didds. I think we successfully achieved our goal to smash him off at all costs so he remained Forever Second My eyes and belly still hurt after laughing some more. From now on I think we have to call it FG GTA Fridays. @Diddums @MrBiron @techno @Stretch616 @phil bottle @Greboth @Prodi-Cal_Son

Dying Light: Bad Blood is a new standalone online title set in the universe of the 2015 game. The concept is simple: six players are dropped across a large, open map with the goal of harvesting and looting enough blood packets to trade in for a helicopter ride out of the infected zone. The catch? There's only room for one. Game Informer Link The primary way to obtain blood packets is by killing zombies. Nests are located all over the city, and since you're racing against other players to get to the chopper with enough blood, you want to make a beeline toward the high concentration areas. Unfortunately, when you're dropped in, it's with nothing but the clothes on your back. Thankfully, the looting and crafting aspects of the original game are fully intact; you're not going to get far without a competent weapon, and weapon mods definitely help. Once you get enough blood, you level up, increasing your damage and health. To have enough to trade in for a helicopter evac, you need to max out to level five. It doesn't take long; each of my matches lasted ten minutes or less. After acquiring enough blood, you must make your way to the evac point and hold it for 30 seconds as the other players are notified of your near-victory state. This leads to tense battles that put most zombie swarms to shame as the remaining survivors descend upon the point for a winner-take-all slugfest that could see any of the players emerge victoriously. _________________________________________________________ This looks and sounds really cool. The original game was extremely well made which makes you hope they can pull off the PvP side of things. Sounds a little like The Division Dead Zone and where you have to loot blood instead of items and then get to the extraction point. Hoping the 6 player action can have some form of teaming up on it.

Let's be honest Phil. I'm going to spend 30 seconds in the tutorial and the next 6 weeks crashing ships in to everything and asking you for help.

Have you ever wonder how big a 21,000 block hole would be? well wonder no longer It took far longer than I expected but I can finally start building the actual thing I posted above. And before anyone asks; yes I am regretting building this underground

Welcome to the forum. Sorry you know Diddums. He’s a tool

Below article about Brigitte release date update and new cosmetic items. Her legendary skins are pretty sweet Also Sombra nerf Any time Sombra’s hack is interrupted by damage, hacking will go on cooldown for 2 seconds. With this change, Sombra will have to be more careful about choosing when and who to hack instead of just holding down the button and waiting for people to miss and/or reload etc. There is currently a 0.1s window of time at the end of the hack where it cannot be canceled via line of sight or other effects (such as Tracer’s recall, Zarya bubbles, etc). This exists so it doesn’t constantly get broken by very small line of sight blockers such as light posts and signs, etc. https://www.express.co.uk/entertainment/gaming/934245/Overwatch-Brigitte-release-date-UPDATE-new-skins

20 million have played it but only 20 still play. Fair play to them for keeping at it and trying to actually turn it into a playable game.

I don’t understand how companies are still making all these stupid decisions, it’s all pretty simple. Less EA, more Blizzard 👍 Fortuantley I only really play zombies and private parties on cod, it just hasn’t had the draw like other cod games have. Although it’s been the best for years, but they might as well have been nothing to beat the other games were so shite.

Must fight the urge to not get it tonight!
