    Howdily doodily

    Hi everyone, I'm Ant and new to the forums. I've been a gamer since i got my first playstation back in the 90s and have been a playstation guy ever since (though i did have a couple of xbox's too lol) and recently managed to upgrade to PS5. I play all sorts of games, but love horror and action games. I'm currently playing Need for Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered, God of War and Maneater, with a bit of Fifa 19 now and again (career mode mind you lol). Looking to get into this online multiplayer lark and improve upon my noob status lol. Looking forward to chatting games and getting online with peeps 🙂

  2. EA have done the shooter versions of Star Wars. It would cool to see something different, maybe like new KOTOR?

  3. First race I did better than all the practicing from weekend and before the race and held on to get 4th position. The second race was a different story as after I gave kiwi a boost on the first lap I thought he spun out so I held of thinking he was behind me so lost about 20/30 seconds then held of pitting till about 9th or 10th lap till I needed to change tires.

    GT Sport - FG Races

    This week was probably my worst so far. I just wasn't feeling the tracks, and couldn't get to grips with the cars handling. During Qualifying for Catalunya, I set a very slow time above 2 minutes, since all my other attempts resulted in getting penalties. I gave up this attempt to sit in pits until race time. The race was completely different though, I had a very good race and was keeping the car on track and with good enough lap times to not be last. Gr. 2's are awesome cars to drive, if you know how. I kept spinning on all the same corners, so that was a disaster. I admit I came close to quitting early.

  6. The guys who run Ubisoft are scum of the earth. The boys at the top I refer to, rather than the actual workers and folk who do the good shit. I still buy Ubisoft games, but i wont pretend that the culture at the top of the company doesn't make me sick.

    Oculus VR

    Seems I'm in good company in this thread as I went for the index. For me this was driven by it's one of the few HMD's that fit as my IPD (basically the distance between your eyes) is ~70-71mm and most HMD's top out in the 60's. Though I also went for the index for the buy right buy once motto as at the time it was the best (And arguably still is). Though if you're looking at the Rift S, I thought the facebook profile thing was coming in but if you already had an Oculus account it would carry on or something like that? It isn't something I looked too deeply in to though so there's a good chance I'm wrong. Sadly no HMD is perfect; between God rays, chromatic aberration, resolutions, black levels, refresh rates etc. each one has some negative about it. The Rift S does get recommended a lot though and, anecdotally, I'd say when I was looking all recommendations were for the Rift S or Index depending on budget. So assuming the Rift S would fit, I don't you'd be disappointed with it.

  9. After Lee suggested having FG skins for our racing cars, Mike asked for the FG logo. As there’s no way to share in game you’ll need to upload it yourself Logo's currently made; I've also made 2 website decals, one lowercase and one all caps. Download; https://www.dropbox.com/sh/nb4yntiqnvmba97/AAA0q7UuMdnadYsdEDpnPkW6a?dl=0 If you need any other logos / versions of the FG logo let me know. I’ll keep the dropbox updated so it can act as a logo pack for us all. You need to go to the gt sport website to upload. Specific instructions on how to upload to follow shortly.

  10. I played the new zombies for a few hours the other week, managed to stumble into the easter egg stuff but then had no idea what to do. I know they're looking to bring in a proper story mode for zombies but i'm liking the new version so far. You can call in a copper and escape at round 10 for some bonus stuff or you can hang around for longer and keep fighting. Has anyone given this a go yet or is there anyone that would be up for teaming up and seeing if we can do the easter egg? I may have to eventually look up how to do it as i imagine it's almost impossible to work out unless you play it every day....i'm not even sure i can remember what i did 😄

  15. It's Official.... Ubisoft now have the rights to make an open world Star Wars game. I'm sure after the recent success of The Mandalorian that this is awesome news for all us Star Wars fans. Genuinely am so excited for this 😁what do you think?

  16. Ofc I went and got Hayley a pod one! We ain't that sophisticated!! 🤣 From Santa, Hayley got the following Nespresso Essenza Mini one: She especially wanted one with the milk frother (i'm not saying the fancy word for it either) and she seems to like it so far.

  17. I want to enthused about this but i'm not a Star Wars fan (don't hate it, just never really got into the films issall). BUT I know that everyone ploughs money behind Star Wars games and I have enjoyed the games that i have either watched or played in the past. Its a great concept to have a game in open world, poossibly one of the best spaces from a story perspective to use for an open world so only time will tell how quickly we'll get it. I don't think Ubisoft are any way near the worst anymore. They make mistakes with some games like Ghost Recon Wildlands but then they've kept Rainbow 6 going extremely well and Valhalla, for me, is a superb game with a great open world. Hope they do. It'll hopefully mean development time won't be as long 6-7 years which we normally have to wait for and like I say above, there are far worse games to take assets and characteristics from. Btw, I see The Division 2 director Julian Gerighty is the Director for this - which bodes well as Division 2 was a super solid game and given the right resources over a longer period of time it could easily turn into a live service maintainable game. Overall, sounds like a little hype train could easily get going for this. Choo Choo.

  18. Omg, finally got round to having a quick bash on this for the first time and i've never known a game to have aestically pleasing controls with a hack/slash type game. It impresses me so much that it helps you not become a button mashing machine but at the same time creates different moves in game when you might've spammed a button either way. For a game like this to put graphics, movement, controls all in a kind of open-ish world is incredible and puts the likes of Cyberpunk creators CD Projekt Red to shame. It feels like a Game of the Year type of game you'll always remember when you played it. Also, Tom @LordBaguette and myself had a dabble in the FREE multiplayer mode for a few levels and its bloody fantastic. I can't wait to try the survival 4-player mode at some point to eventually unlock the Raids they have! We should definitely find a moment where we can potentially partner up in a few levels with each other to see how far we could get @Dan94 @phil bottle @LordBaguette @RenFengge @Riff Machine and anyone else who has the game for that matter!

  19. We can skip stuff but at the same time the best way to learn the raid is completing full runs, or at least in order if for whatever reason we can't finish it all. The eggs I need are: The two eggs from The Corrupted I just need to find some time to do - which i'm more than happy to do as a fireteam with a few others as I'm sure i'm not on my own with these! Lol, tbh it won't be that far behind. If we wipe Clive @Teenwolf25 could see which way to go next time. Equally he could be there in the raid for us too for a few runs! 😄 Lets do them then! I know Nick @Bluebear is finally getting back into it again after his brief sabbatical on Cyberpunk and he desperately needs most of the eggs too. I'm pretty sure you can get 4 out of 5 eggs on your own. I used Esoterrick's quick guide to get some of them already.

  20. Ah good to know, Tommy. I think they remind me of Destiny ones a little bit. I do think it supports a game well when they have good cinematics, not essential, but it sure brings more people into the game if they can see their favourite characters acting out an action scene - can't beat feeling like a little kid still sometimes when watching them!

    GT Sport - FG Races

    This game is both a blessing and a curse. If you enter this with any other thought than having a Love/Hate relationship with GT Sport you'll end up like @LordBaguette Ceeb's (CBA TOM). Honestly love getting on with you lot Tuesday evenings for race days. The wife has not been pleased as our time difference puts me directly in the cross hairs of the end of the workday, time to pickup our son, and get dinner on the table. Alas she has given in as long as I'm off by 5:30 (Half 10 for you lot). It must be said that you can have phenomenal times and make one mistake and it be a misfortune. Its great to see that we are all improving week to week which makes any errors spotlights in our group. I don't think picking up the wheel gave me as much of an advantage as I had hoped. Its more of not only practicing the course but trying to practice clean racing. I know I can speak for myself that I'm improving in that regard. staying behind other instead of risking a pass and doing us both in. I don't know how long this all can last but I hope we keep it up. I cannot promise @Greboth that I will be a contender any time soon but @Mikepjbell and @GazzaGarratt are on your tail. I've got to give it to @slamminbones for his improvement over the weeks. We are typically neck and neck with some races but he blew me away on race one this week. As for @phil bottle I saw someone comment in the livestream that you were hacking.....must be true it was on the internets.... as it was the only way you passed me with such amazing speed. LOL GGFG Sincerely yours, No! Not Matt, Not Matt!

    You're right about the need to focus on it, its along ass raid so we will maybe need a couple of nights at it - at least with the wish wall we could skip to bits we need practise on. Which eggs do you need by the way - we can always grab a checkpoint along the way if you arent about. Also i think you still need full Arc encounter three on DSC, will try and grab a check point (I actually love encounter 3, so more than happy to run it over and over).Let me know if you do

  35. Yay for it being taking away from EA. Not so sure I'm thrilled with it being Ubisoft, as I don't think there's been anything in their repertoire that shows they can do it justice. Major studios don't have it in them. Small studios that actually think about creating games with rich storylines... that's been the shining, flickering light in games during these dark ages of games.

  36. So, I had intended to do my gym's HIIT workout at home yesterday after I got back from the eye doctor. Oh, silly me. They didn't tell me when I made the appointment that they were going to dilate me. There went that. Fairly hilarious to have to text Carl that he would need to Uber over to the doctor's office, so he could drive me home. Such a waste. But, after the appointment, it ended up being an impromptu date night with some wings, pizza, and a bubble tea. (Again. I'll start really working on my food in February when I need another jolt in the weight loss to ensure I meet the second checkpoint in the DietBet) Onto today's 5AM HIIT! 1/13/2021 Workout 8 minute EMOM (every minute on the minute): 6 power cleans @ 75lbs THEN 50 pull-ups (scaled to jumping pull-ups/basically deficit pull-ups) Thoughts: The usual 5AM coach (James) is back. And, I walked in today a little puzzled when I saw that my box was not set up. He said, "You're going to join the rest of us in civilization. So, I have you set up over there." Ehhhhh.. the spot he put me in is my second favorite spot anyway.. not a big deal.. but definitely more "in class". When he started letting down the pull-up bars, I got even more concerned when he didn't swap mine out for ring rows. I let it slide initially as I thought he would swap them out later. I.was.so.wrong. Thus, today's workout went from me thinking I would go heavy on the cleans to "yeah. naww.... You want me to do what then do 50 pull-ups?" So, instead of doing 115lbs on the power cleans, I dropped the weight down to 75lbs. No, power cleans should not use a lot of upper body thus my shoulders, arms, and pecs should not be gassed when I do the pull-ups. But, grip is still used. And, I'm not going to lose grip while doing whatever scale of a pull-up I could do. Coach said that he is going to get me to do strict pull-ups and a muscle up by the end of the year. So, no more ring rows for me. I basically laughed and said, "hopes and dreams over there. If you succeed, you'll be my first coach to get a non-assisted pull up out of me." The workout wasn't terrible. But, it was not what I was anticipating. I did like it, but I also did not push myself super hard because I wasn't sure where I was going to be on pull-ups. Definitely will have a slight soreness in my shoulders and arms later. Should be good. Just means I can do something tomorrow! The other coach (Tim) who focuses on weightlifting was there too. He was with a client. When James was winding down our class and talking about the squatting workshop they are about to start, Tim yelled, "Hey, LA! We're going to see you there, right? I'm tired of Shale being the only one who lifts heavy in these workshops." I guess I'm going to be doing a squatting workshop for 9 weeks starting the 23rd lol. I'll have to figure out cardio intensive workouts in lieu of boxing for 9 weeks.

  37. You can do some HIITs inside the house! My home gym is indoors and tiny, but it works for most of the time. I can't do battle ropes, but I think I found a compact one that could work.

Monopoly, Cluedo, Game Of Life, Hungry Hippos, Mousetrap, Payday. Not to mention the ultimate in world domination "Risk" that's a game and a half. Great thread Stretch, was a great read!

  40. I've played a lot and quite enjoy it. It's great to rank up. I've managed a few of the easter eggs solo. I would team up, however the time difference (I am in California) is a problem. Lag should not be too much of a problem I won't spoil anything but I have strategy that I can provide if you want

    Ghost of Tsushima

    So, I'm currently running around trying to 1) get enough materials to upgrade all my stuff, 2) unlock as much as I can before continuing with the story, and 3) get enough technical points to better my play style. I had just finished clearing out the logging camp, I think. Then, Jin decided to sit down, bask in the bloody and fiery aftermath, and have a drink? Dude... that's some badassery, I guess.

    Ghost of Tsushima

    I agree that the fighting can be difficult. However, I think it could be a bit more intuitive. Some issues I've experienced in my learning curve with Ghost are issues I never experienced with Horizon Zero Dawn, and a lot of the mechanics are the same. Like, I shouldn't have to pause to look up the correct order to throw a knife, nor should I be accidentally calling my horse when I do that, but I do. That said, I'm still having a blast with it. I just wish I could get to the angry Mongols in time before they butcher peasants when I see them.

  45. The Turing Test. This is a puzzle game and honestly, it's worth a play through. The puzzles are simply just putting things in the right order, at the right time. It doesn't compare to the likes of Portal and honestly I was a little disappointed in the puzzles difficulty. Most of them don't take much thinking thought to get right, some I swear I didn't do as was intended but got the end result anyway. Graphically it looks great and plays really well, I completed main story (no optional side puzzles) in about 5 hours. I probably wouldn't buy this at full price but if you grab it in the sales, it's worth giving it a chance.

  49. David Guetta delivers CDPR's official apology video Hate these kinda things where they still lie or don't acknowledge the more serious converns. Roadmap looks almost as threadbare as the game - the amount of work in the coming year that has to be done is insane and even then I don't think the game will be all that great. Detracting away from the bugs will just showcase other core problems that can't be addressed with a simple patch or update.
