I'll probably grab this in the far future when it's £25. It's basically the same game once again but with a different backdrop. FH4 was where the series peaked but now it's a bit stagnant.

Just saw that it's £790 for a PS5 Pro from Argos. Absolutely disgusting really. I could probably sell my old PS5 standard for more than I paid for it back in 2021. This is also the end of the generation and the prices are still going up. Doesn't make sense. These machines shouldn't cost more than £350 for what's under the hood and how powerful they are.

Smart move from Microsoft to fool consumers once more. Even though the pass is $7 cheaper now, it's still $7 more expensive than it was several months prior. Removing Call of Duty will see them getting paid massively at retail once again, so any freeloaders who choose not to renew the pass even at the cheaper rate, Microsoft will still rake the money in from unit sales of the game which will comfortably exceed any lost revenue at the original pass increase rate. Arguably $23 a month without a flagship title like Call of Duty is an outrageous rip-off in itself. The only consolation is that the games on the pass, particularly the indie games may actually get to make a better share of income without COD absorbing it all. Some indie titles were probably lucky to walk away with 30 cents an install on products that would cost £20 at retail.

Once or twice a year the offering is dire and I don't get it but otherwise I pick it up every month. DIABLO 4 and the Crysis 3 remaster may tempt me again this month. From recent months I have a few keys spare, so if anyone fancies any of the following, they're yours: Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria Zero Hour Tempest Rising Chants of Sennaar

The May lineup looks interesting. I am not 100% sure on Diablo 4 though. Anything stand out this month in that bundle to make it worth getting?

I'm off to Crete for a week tomoz, will hop on when I get back.

there needs to be more padding on the walls for him

If you played with us on the server, we could have just told you this in chat. @Tar-Eruntalion and I even built you a room in the big house. Just saying.... 🙂

Join the Forever Gaming Discord Server! DISCORD.GG Check out the Forever Gaming community on Discord - hang out with 130 other members and... And building where you are building is fine

hey real fast, two things A) whats the discord? B) if I am building to close to yall, let me know and I can move.

I hate these damned birds on yalls island...

I would also again highly recommend wveryone to buy the keelhold hull in tortuga, I forget from which faction vendor, but it’s OP as hell as it allows you to keep repairing even if you keep getting hit

What a fuckin dumbass. I've spent the last few nights sucking at ship battles, and wondering why I couldn't upgrade anything on my Shipwright's workbench. Turns out you have to remove the stuff from the ship and then upgrade it at the workbench. Yanno those warnings on shampoo bottles? Yeah, me. All me.

Cheers Seb!

For the ship combat, you get more stuff from boarding, I’d say it’s mostly worth boarding the haulers/transports, there is a counter in the top right of your screen during the boarding process which tells you how many enemies you/your crew has to kill. Upgrading your boarding crew helps with this a lot. I also agree the xp gain is slow, I do wish you would get it from combat, farming and building as well but I can see how they have intentionally slowed it down to match your exploration which makes sense, it’s just annoying 😂

Two things worth mentioning. There are very limited ways of earning XP, basically quests and POIs / camps. On the map page, at the bottom right you can see how many POIs you've completed on each biome so you can max them out and get all that sweet sweet xp. The other one, and this is a big one, is to always have some building mats on you. Boars don't seem to break through walls, so when facing multiple, you can box some of them in and face one at a time. This trivialized a fight I had to do many times over. Question - ship combat - do you always sink the other vessels, or also board them and wreck them? I've only tried boarding two vessels. One from my tiny little dinkyboat, and the other was the first ship for the quest. On both occasions I was fighting a seemingly endless supply of dudes and eventually gave up. Is there a trick to this or just keep killing them until they stop?

FG Cove is where it's at!! I just sent the deets @Sennex sorry, didn't see the DM

You can build on as many islands as you want and have multiple bases. But, you can only place down 10 fast travel points (not counting the ones that the game just unlocks for you in important locations) so just keep that in mind. In my solo world I’m keeping my original base for now, I might tear it down and move it later, I dunno. On the FG server we have starter bases set up but have moved most workbenches and resources down to the FG Cove where we (mainly Carl, La and John) are building something on a much bigger scale. (I just farm resources like a madman 😂)

Last question, I know you can go to other Islands, so does it make sense to build up on your starting one, or will I end up abandoning this one for a better one later? I don't really view this game like Enshrouded, or Icarus, where you can get away with having one base, but it could be. IDK Boars, Drowned, and Dodo's are still kicking my ass, but I can whip the shit out of crabs

Bruh..... wow, yea, I needed this video

Bartacus watch this vid- https://youtu.be/E0IJZ1xMTco

Can confirm, I didn't mine at all yesterday, and when i hopped in the cave just now, it was all back

Caves may not be affected by it, just seen a video where someone placed it as close to one as possible, I think other resources do get affected by it though, so check before you move it

Well crap, I need to move my bonfire. Its right in the mouth of that copper cave I found
