It's a beta. It will be better on the finished product. 😂😂😂😂

Epic night again for GTA Friday. Too many crashes to count back on. @Narj and @Spacedeck fit in like gloves with the amount of crashing they started! I can't even believe Shut up Adam @Dr Diamond turned up too. @Greboth won far too many on his first week back since being reborn. Honestly, the night goes so quick and my eyes bleed after crying of laughter for most of the night. GGFG all. @crispymorgan @Diddums @Spacedeck @Downsy2000 @Amnotright @LordBaguette @Narj @techno @phil bottle @Dr Diamond @Misneach_ TeeHee(Stouty)

www.ccsesports.com twitter.com/ccsesports twitch.tv/ccsesports youtube.com/ccsesports discord.gg/ccs North America- Wednesday & Friday starting at 20:00 ET. Europe- Monday & Wednesday starting at 19:00 BST. Cyberathlete Championship Series, or CCS is a an event organizer I co-founded back in May of 2017 with a former Rainbow 6 Pro League player. (Who has since departed) We are essentially another major league for Ubisoft and Rainbow Six Siege. (Albeit smaller compare us to an ESEA/ Star League to the behemoth known as ESL) Our third season will be ending in September and we've all but secured funding for season four to actually make ourselves more attractive than ESL's Challenger League. (I cannot say the prize pool for both North America and Europe but it's going to be insane) ESL Pro League > ESL Challenger League/ CCS if you're wondering about the level of competition. Our league boasts a lower age requirement and it's lead to a handful of our young players finding spots on Pro League teams as soon as they turn 18. (Our age limit is 16 and older, while ESL is 18) This has pretty much been my life outside of playing Rainbow Six weekly since December of 2015 when it came out. I have a staff of 30 volunteers who work their asses off as well as some contracted talent which I cannot do myself or find a volunteer for. So yeah, check it out some time. I know Rainbow Six has been long dead in this group since Overwatch came to town but I still say there's no FPS better.

This is the reason why we all need to group up as much as we can. We all should know each other by now and there's enough of us around to help everyones objectives. This event is actually a real decent grind and positively supported when you're in a fireteam. I wouldn't want it to be cos you flied solo is why you don't like this content. @NCA-Paendrag Brede, just make sure you check out party chats when you're on. I'm confident FGera will help out where they can.

Ive watched a couple of videos with conflicting reviews I've seen ttk that's horrendous and then thunders video where he got multiple 2 and 3 piece kill feeds, im guessing he's using that special router? Thing is Trey arch have always been random with hit detection. I really don't like all the extra bs and complications around equipment spam and specialists etc it just looks too messy and hectic. I will keep an eye on it but at the moment unless there's a reason to get it to play with people off here I don't think I'll bother. Haven't played much cod in last few years so not likely to miss it.

Tried Homecoming with the blue armour. Thought things might be a bit harder, but I didn't expect 'not even able to get past the first room' hard!! I feel sorry for those who have to solo this content! Via the FG App

Hey, multiple reskinned maps and pretty much the same specialists with a few new ones. Rushed like a motherf*cker. Didn't like specialists in the previous BO either. And from what I've seen from this, it's a big Fuck No for me. The QSing alone should put people older than 16 off this game.

Thought this thread was going to be about Arsenal😎

Hi all, With Spacedeck joining and talking about his interest in photography it has spurred me to make this thread as it is also an interest of mine. I'm sure there are others on here too so I thought I'd create this thread to show off you photo's, talk about them or for anyone looking for advice on camera's to composition. So I guess as I started this thread I should go first so I've been into photography for years finally upgrading to a DSLR about 10-12 years ago. A few different ones until getting to the kit I have below. Though I am thinking of making the change to a 7000 series Nikon but that is more of a shiny new toy itch rather than any actual need. My preferred photography is landscapes or people though as you'll see I take a lot of pictures of birds (the flappy flying kind not the female kind ) My kit currently consists of; Nikon D5100 Nikon 18-55mm kit lens Nikon 55-200mm zoom lens Nikon 35mm Prime lens Manfrotto Tripod Yongnuo Speedlight Skywatcher Star Adventurer star tracker Various remotes, reflectors, ND filters etc.

I've had an iPhone since the iPhone4, through to my current phone iPhone7. Little things have been pissing me off (3.5mm jack gone, shite battery, Apple interference after 2 years, more expensive etc) so looking at getting an Android phone which I haven't had for years, since about the S5 mini I think lol At the moment its between the Samsung S9+ and the Huawei P20 Pro, so was just wondering... What phone do you currently have? What phone manufacturer have you found to be the best?

Early access on Steam later this month. Have my eye on it.

It all depends on the camera then, where the P20 is better. Samsung got a 16mp main camera where the P20 Pro has 40. And also 4K video. 3500mAh battery on S9+, and 4000 mAh on P20 Pro. P20 is cheaper too, at least in Norway.

The fact that you can load into a match and not be able to choose an operator as the match has already begun is very annoying as well. Via the FG App

This will be in the beta - it's 6v6 with two of the same specialists allowed per team. The mode consists of TDM and KC. Hopefully there wont be more modes than players. If they're gonna go with a primary 5v5 then reverting to a 6v6 playlist kinda defeats the purpose and will just split the playerbase more. Maybe TDM and KC will remain traditional and just the objective-heavy modes will have a 5v5 and one specialist focus. If there's 5v5 TDM and KC separate and the CTDM too; that could become problematic especially with all the matchmaking bullshit.

I suggest this is one on the backlash they had on Destiny going from 6 to 4 and now they're back to 6. I agree and I think they must be testing the waters to see what issues are out there regarding team size. Anyone played this mode yet?

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/aug/1/espn-to-bring-back-the-ocho-for-day-of-dodgeball-c/ ESPN to bring back 'The Ocho' for day of dodgeball, chess boxing ESPN will bring back “The Ocho” on Aug. 8 for the second straight year. The channel will rebrand ESPN2 for 24 hours of obscure sports coverage, including competitive eating, dodgeball, chessboxing, kabbadi, darts, sumo wrestling and cornhole. The company tried out the same experiment on ESPNU in 2017. The name “The Ocho” is a reference to the 2004 movie “DodgeBall: A True Underdog Story,” in which a dodgeball tournament was televised on the fictional “ESPN8: The Ocho.” The name also explains the choice of Aug. 8 — the eighth day of the eighth month. Sandwiched between showings of “DodgeBall” at midnight and 10 p.m. that day, the schedule includes screenings of 2006 competitive bratwurst and hamburger-eating contests, as well as some new content such as “The Saber Legion 2018: Awakening” — a full-contact sport in which players fight with lightsabers fashioned after the “Star Wars” franchise. In the middle of the day will be airings of “E:60,” ESPN’s investigative newsmagazine show, and “SportsCenter” at 11 a.m. and noon, respectively. They are likely to be versions of the same show focused only on obscure sports. And what is chessboxing? It’s just chess plus boxing. Players alternate between a four-minute round of chess and a round of boxing, the winner being decided by checkmate or knockout — whichever comes first. “Best of Chess Boxing” will be broadcast at 5 p.m. Aug. 8, live on “The Ocho.”

Tbf they were brilliant as usually it was just one word on the lines of "Prick!" or "Dickhead!" after he got smashed off the track [emoji23] Then the trade-off between Shut Up Adam and Shut Up Chris was superb. If you all weren't this special it would be crap. [emoji173]

Without winning, which is rarer than unicorn racing on the high street I had my best results last night and though he never shuts the fuck up @Amnotright came out with some great one liners 😁

Glad to see the support runs working as they should - nice one Hector and Rob. I'll be around tonight for anyone that needs help with the mission. And definitely practice the jumping now you can enter the mission Dave! [emoji23]🖒

Played a couple of games. 2 main issues were: 1) Load times are painfully long. Sometimes by the time I'd loaded into a game the match had already started. This was an issue with BO3 as well. 2) The TTK is waaaaayyyyy to high. Takes fucking ages to kill anybody. So if I do end up getting this game then I'll be sticking to Hardcore. Apart from those things it seems OK. Maps are decent.

Must admit, I did have fun. I haven't played with a bunch of guys since Destiny 1. Definitely some funny racing and your chatter had me trying to contain my laughter for much of the night. Ordered the required piece for my mic, so hopefully it works out.

Thanks to Hector and Rob for getting Plumbrodders and me through this....I wouldn't say these guys are good but they finished the run before either of us fired a shot in anger!!😂😂 Apparently, there is now an item on the selection page to run the heroic at anytime so we can use this as a practice for the jumping!!

It was a good night, it took my a few races to get my groove back. Especially as I hadn’t raced some of them before

That's what I thought. Think i need some help though as the final fight is hard solo. Or I might just suck 🙂

That is a nice entry level camera and a nice selection of lenses You should be able to get some nice pictures with it. It is cliche to say but it really is a case of going out and taking pictures and finding what you like. I went on holiday earlier this year and took about 400 photos but there is only (I think) 16 that I was happy to post. I keep meaning to create a photography thread on here and it would be good to see some of your when you feel confident enough

The place has certainly livened up a bit over the last couple of weeks, it's great to be able to post from work again as I'm usually fucked by the time I get home and then it's relaxing time, not post on forum time. I agree it's great to see so many folks making a comeback and so many joining the fray. Good stuff FG

Just wanted to mention that it's pretty awesome to see so many PPR updates of late. Its great to catch up with so many of you and read what you've been up to. I hope you can continue these updates as its a great little way to keep a track of your gaming progress and a little insight into what's happening in your lives, as we all know that we're way more than just interwebz friends aren't we 😆 To the recent newer folk of FG, go tale a look. Its a great way to extend your recent new 'Hello' and helps get to know a lot more people around the place. You may even find other good interesting updates in there too! Oh, and you'll ever see them if you're logged in so it is absolutely a place just for FGers... as you guys are all FG too now! 😃 GGFG

I actually like that idea though

The impression I've got from looking on Reddit is that the body armour is annoying as fuck. Couple that with other things that boost your health and it makes gunfights completely random as you never know how much health people will have. And it has a shit Destiny-ish UI where you navigate with a cursor rather than use the controller buttons and sticks.

Worked in the app, but didn’t work in the browser version

Have you registered the team first? Seems odd as we've got a few people in already so the code should be fine

The first game is just over a week away. Man Utd v Leicester on a Friday night... I can see 7 FG teams up and running, so anybody else who wants in, get your skates boots on. Head over to here and register your team. Once done, register yourself into our league by using code 972477-216585

A game I also never actually played. Seemed interesting to me but wasn't sure how I'd find it. I believe Evolve went F2P on PC, so shows the state that went down. And yes, the game is like that I think. Store will update on the 7th.

Might have to give Mafia 3 a download

That kid who leaked everything - which turned out to be true - said that the game was completely different but they were essentially made to bin it and start afresh. I think he was telling the truth because, just like you, I can't believe Treyarch have been working on this version for 3 years.

I'm gonna wait for a big price reduction before I consider it again especially as the reviews have been a bit iffy. I do think it's ideal for kids as it's not overly-complex but for an adults wallet; it's bloody pricey to say the least! Cities Skylines is a great alternative to Sim City although that may be a bit too complicated and deep especially if you have limited time to play.
