@Antpool84 was literally on fire last night!! Couldn't put a foot wrong and they couldn't handle his runs, crosses or shots! Big up to Josh too, played a corker outfield for some games and I recall an incredible stop in goal when it was behind him. Ridiculous.3 points -

yeah the options you have kinda suck now, you either stay with windows 10 without security patches and all that entails, pay for the extended support or move to linux and if you are playing comp games with kernel level anticheat or need specific software like adobe, office, autodesk etc you are out of luck2 points -

DnD Night
GazzaGarratt and one other reacted to Greboth for an event
Some of this will be a recap of the last session too but I'm just typing up my notes to make sure I cover everything 🙂 For the recap we were given a parchment from Guard Captain Foundry in Slema. The parchment was reports of ghoul, skirge and zombie attacks in St Julians, Pachavil and Mosta all the way to the coast. Guard Captain Foundry suggested we should speak to Father Richards, in Mosta, as he has knowledge of the Skirge that could help us. Barm escaped and has the 3 artifacts; Dryda gland, dragon heart and giant spine. We also knew we needed to speak to Ceryni fo the thieves guild who may have information on how to counter Barm's time stop. We started the session in The Swan where we asked Jeremy if he knew where we could find Ceryni, he did not but knew a man who did - Doug. Jeremy sent Miranda out to find Doug - a particularly rough and odorous local scumbag who deals in information. Miranda returned with Doug and it was clear he was going was going to scam us or rip us off in some way as he knew we need information. Draverum snuck off to charm Doug letting us get the information we needed easily - Ceryni is in St Julians and he most likely will be found in The Occult, a thieves guild tavern that is not welcome to non guild members. There are other Thieves guild taverns in St. Julians and they can be identified by a small skull and cross bones on the sign. Doug also informed us that Ceryni is relatively high up in the guild and reports to 4 masters. Also worth of note is that the Thieves guild have their own language 'Thieves Cant' which is only known by members. To help cover up the spell cast on Doug and the information given to us, Azum ordered the strongest drink Jeremy serves, a Lady Boy, and gave it to Doug so he will be too drunk to be able to recall our conversation. We now had a choice - go to St. Julians to find Ceryni to get information on Barm or Father Richards in Mosta for information on the ghouls, skirge and zombies. We decided Barm is the bigger threat so we should speak to Ceryni first. Nothing of note happened on the journey to Ceryni but we arrived seeing a small bustling city 3x-4x the size of Sleema with stone buildings, a busy markets with a church and large keep in the middle. We got stopped by 2 guards on the gate who questioned our purpose in St Julains. We explained we were sent by Guard Captain Foundry and on showing the parchment, they told us we should speak to Marshall Deniver in the keep. We decided if we are going to see Marshall Deniver and Ceryni, we should probably see if we can find Ceryni first but not knowing St Julians, we chatted to a local market stall holder Azool (who sold some delicious if expensive cherries) who told us about 2 taverns, the Baron hog and The Ship with the later being a Thieves guild tavern. We headed there and found it filled with what appeared to be local business and trades men but Brock noticed that 3 men were speaking a language none of knew - Thieves Cant. We sent some food and drink over the their table to ingratiate ourselves and on being served, they came over to our table asking why. The thieves explained they operate the city and we should be careful but they could get a message to Ceryni that we wanted to meet but would be later. We therefore took the time to go see Marshall Deniver in the keep who we met in his modest and, for his station, small office. He informed us that there had been 7 reports of ghouls, skirge and zombie attacks with the most recent being 2 nights ago. He said we should start at the Scolded Child tavern as that's the last known sighting of some of the missing people. Marshall Deniver then gave us a parchment that would allow us to investigate and be given passage in to the towns Pachavil and Mosta and we should return to him in 2 weeks with what we've found. He also advised that we should speak to one of the Victors at the church before we leave St. Julians. On leaving the keep, we decided we should go back to The Ship as that's where we'd spoken to the Thieves guild. But on leaving, a group of children ran in to us and we quick realised they stole our gold as they did - the Thieves guild! Brock cast a spell, freezing one of the children in place who we questioned him finding out he worked for the thief we had spoken to in the morning in The Ship. We took this as a sign Ceryni was ready to meet and got the child to take us to The Occult where led us to the back door which led in to a tavern - a secret tavern behind the public facing one at the front of the building. We sit down with Ceryni who asks what we want, we say we're there for information on stopping Barm. Ceryni says it will cost a favour but Azum offers the coin he got from Jarlaxl from Bragen D'Erth - Ceryni is impressed and accepts the coin in exchange for information. What we need is a counter charm that will stop us being frozen by Barm time stop spell. He further explained that it's a Bard spell and we would need a bard to cast it or have the bard's teach one of us. There is a catch to the counter charm though - it takes 10 minutes to cast but the counter charm only then lasts 60 seconds! Ceryni then spoke directly with Brock pointing out the that all magic has an opposite, Barm has the Dryda gland that is darkness but Brock can cast radiant spell - the light and counter the dark. With that new knowledge, we ended the session to consider our next steps and how to use our new found knowledge.2 points -

Hi Kohken, I think I have heard of Nexgen before but can't recall where. I tend to prefer forum's still as I like a good thought out conversation, forum's tend to provide an outlet for that compared to modern day social media. That said some of the cr*p that get's spouted here can be just as bad so I will apologise in advance! There are a friendly bunch here albeit can sometimes be a little quiet as a lot of the group tend to forget the site is more than just the whatsapp groups! But yeah tell us about you and what you are into and such! And welcome!2 points

Arma Reforger
GazzaGarratt and one other reacted to Luseth for a topic
We only really get on once a week at the moment but I am thoroughly enjoying this. It is filling the void that battlefield has left since BFV which is great. Obviously less destruction but that is sort of mitigated by the base building. You can see how many players still do not understand the logistical side of things around the supplies and such, it can be a bit frustrating when someone spawn's in and nicks off with all the supplies by bringing in vehicles, loadouts and such while you are trying to build up a base. We did take a beating last time we were on, similarly I don't think the group I play with fully appreciates a well built up base. A group joined the Soviet side and came in and took half the map rather quickly as they took out the radio beacons to prevent spawns and the bases had no ai and such to defend them. For the first time in a shooter sniping is incredibly satisfying too, but the ai leave room for improvement. Getting one shotted at sniper range by someone holding an AK is absurd. I have had one go in the chopper and for some reason it locked my camera once I took off and I could not turn it round at all which made it particularly difficult, still somehow managed to land it with only 1 guy in my squad dying (but he did jump out before I had landed so his own fault!)2 points -

Bye bye Windows 10
J4MES OX4D reacted to phil bottle for a topic
So, support from Microsoft for W10 will end in October and no further security updates. They're basically forcing everyone onto W11, at which point, once everyone has got it, they'll probably release W12 🙃 My mobo is from 2019 and won't support W11, so I'm pretty much screwed. I do need to upgrade my CPU and GPU too but it's all ridiculously expensive right now...1 point -

The3rdWalker reacted to J4MES OX4D for a topic
Anything to justify the upgrade other than a change of the default colour. If something is in rigorous development for 6 years, I expect to see results other than colour change and taskbar arrangement. Windows 7 was revolutionary in functionality and appearance, and Windows 10 provided a strong framework for app integration and virtual reality. I was expecting Windows 11 to lead the way in AI development and tooling but instead it's still focusing on needless features from 2009.1 point -

Been using Windows 11 for over a year now and it's just so plain and boring, I don't think there's any feature that stands out. Only time anything pops into my head about it is when it's doing an updated on shutdown. Other than that, Microsoft may as well become the new Apple and release a new one every year for no reason.1 point -
Half Life 2 RTX
phil bottle reacted to J4MES OX4D for a topic
I kind of have mixed feelings about this so far. At times the game looks great but the performance demands are needlessly insane. They've done a good job with improving the assets and a part of me wishes they left it at just that because the ray tracing is draining. The Nvidia slop of DLSS and Frame Gen helps with performance but degrades the image significantly and I wish developers would stop bailing themselves out with this shite. Not only is it an attempt at covering up poor optimisation but it cons the user into thinking they are running a game better than they are whilst unwittingly suffering from a poorer quality experience - like putting a band aid on a deep cut and pretending everything is fine. Developers need to operate within their means and this game is a prime example of them not. They've gone for RTX overkill and hoped that the Nvidia extras can cover this up. I don't know if Source is a good engine for ray tracing - Portal RTX was brutally demanding too but this isn't how things should be done. Doom Eternal is a prime example of how it should be.1 point -

One of the best games of all time imo, I remember getting the Orange box, first on Xbox 360, then on Origin. I recently installed HL2 on Steam as they updated the graphics and it's just waiting for me to need a break from Stalker. I can't do RTX with my 1080ti but I'm sure this will be excellent.1 point -

Verdansk Returns
slamminbones reacted to J4MES OX4D for a topic
Many are seeing this as Warzone's last chance but the reception hasn't been very favourable as Activision seemingly throw one last ditch attempt at saving the mode. What made the original Verdansk/Warzone so popular was the solid mechanics, BR still somewhat fresh and the global lockdown. The servers were also reliable and there wasn't a culture of cheaters. Warzone has gone downhill ever since with an increase in cheaters, the removal of content and a mishmash of mechanical changes that really affect the core gameplay. With BO6 seen as the worst for authentic movement and Activision still trying (and failing) to create a functional anti-cheat, I think this will flop massively. It may bring a lot of people back initially but I cannot see any longevity and it all seems rather desperate.1 point -

Activision finally admit it...
MrBiron reacted to J4MES OX4D for a topic
They use AI to 'help develop' in-game assets on their billion dollar franchise. After over a year of accusations and months of persistent denials, thanks to a Steam Store change requiring developers and publishers to disclose such things, the truth has finally been revealed. Call of Duty admits it's using generative AI to 'help develop some in-game assets', and suddenly all those poorly made calling cards make sense | PC Gamer WWW.PCGAMER.COM "Disappointingly, I just grinded for an AI-generated calling card." So people are further shelling out £25 a season for generic rewards that were made by a machine and not crafted by an art team. Honestly it wouldn't surprise me if we soon found out that the map layouts were done by AI too because no human would've been idiotic enough to design half the maps BO6 has with intent. Also gun camos will probably soon fall under the spotlight as people aren't going to let this go easily without more answers. Calling cards were always a pretty iconic part of the series and I used to love unlocking them through challenges especially from MW2 to BO2. This news for me just taints the franchise even further and you just can't trust what you're playing has been produced legitimately and to the best standard possible.1 point -
