I think George @G_dub52 will be the envy of most people as the system selected his name to win Assassin's Creed Valhalla from December 9th! Well done mate, got to be in it to win it!

What it can do....if you have deep pockets! Spoiler...it's not very good on 8K as it wasn't designed for that, but some of the other settings...🤢

Oh yeah, and i got a standard bush. Imagine my guy doesn't watch shitty manscape promotions 😅

Just had an hour before sleepy phil went to beddy byes. The game looks amazing on ultra settings. Nvidia tried to suggest I use medium settings which I laughed at. With everything turned up I struggle to get above 50 frames but a mixture of high and ultra seems the sweet spot for me. I imagine with ray tracing it must look even better. Watched the Digital Foundry vid and they think the way ray tracing is used for lighting is the best they've ever seen. Nomad character to start with. I like the conversation options and the time limit to provide a response before the npc and conversation move on. My guy is taking no shit from the off. My car is a wreck but driving seems ok. That's all I'll say for now.

Nvidia Game Ready Driver just been released. Make sure you download that shit before playing. AMD drivers also out earlier I think.

Thanks man! Defo getting in the xmas spirit now lol

Cyberpunk 2077

G_dub takin' all the prizes! lol Nice job! Enjoy dude!

Don't knock it till you try it.. #livingthedream 😁

WTF is this?!! Please don't say this is exactly what it looks like on a PS4?!!! @LordBaguette yours this bad? This is funny, hilarious and sad all in one moment.

Done just over an hour so far and it's way too early to judge however as Chaos said above, the UI is way too busy and had similar performance issues to Phil but those improved once I toned down the shadows. Disabling chromatic abboration, film grain, depth of field, motion blur and lens flare also makes the game look far cleaner - I really hate all these headache-inducing post-process effects. I also must have pressed the action button 200 times already and I'm not too keen on the writing style so far. It does look great though and I'm sure I'll get into it. Cannot wait to see what the bugs are though🤣

Graphics on the bog standard PS4 not as good as I expected, but they aren't bad. Might also be down to my shit monitor though. Overall I'm not a fan of the hacking or stealth mechanics, they will definetly take some time getting used to for me. Combat is decent, but I need to figure out if you can outright buy ammo as I keep running out 😅 I love that your lifepath option comes into play during conversations and also that you get more options at times depending on what you put skill points into. Inventory UI is kind of meh... Bit too unorganized and cluttered for me and kind of hard to navigate at first but I'll probably get used to it. Not really explored a whole lot, just kept going with missions at the start so I'm really excited to look around Night city properly later. Loving the story and the characters so far and there seems to be a lot of sidemissions you can do as well as a ton of random events around the city. I'm sure once I've played more my opinion on things might change, but we'll see. Definetly enjoying it so far!

So I had this World of Warcraft project just sitting idle for many many months, with a section requiring restitching. It was a daunting task to undo so many stitches, which took some days. I recently bought a hands free stand which made things much easier, so I had a final push to finish this, before I venture on to other ideas. The Horde side was a bit hard to work with due to the amount colours needing to be stitched in a more random order. So here is the final peice. Now all I need to do is get it washed and framed.

100% nah 😁

George @G_dub52 is the next one to win a voucher of his choice from 8th December giveaway! Well done mate!! 😎

As its pretty much been in the waiting for 7 years...let's hear what you guys have to say about it below!

*Lee scurrys to see if there's a problem with the system generated picks!* 🤣🤣 I didn't expect that but fair play George @G_dub52 , like I said before you gotta be in it to win it! 🙈🤣

The shooting feels good up until the moment you pull the trigger. Once you do it feels very arcadey. Hopefully it improves with better guns and perks...but I agree feels like the last deus ex and unsatisfying right now. I'm mostly looting everything in sight before each stage of each mission. There's plenty of ammo that way. Not had a single bug encounter so far, touching wood as I write that. Permission is granted to take that out of context. Looks great, Nvidia changed it's mind and decided on a mix of high and ultra after all. Getting 60 to 80 fps, mostly in the 60s.

Just finished a mission which had quite a bit of combat in it towards the end and I must say it was an absolute catastrophe. The aiming is wonky as hell, gunplay and bullet effects are terrible, AI is laughable and the mechanics feel very clunky. Jackie also kept getting in the way when I was shooting and wouldn't shut the hell up talking. My character kept colliding/clipping with bodies and debris on the floor which was very frustrating. The AI spams grenades so even in cover you aren't safe but this is also a pretty effective (and cheap) way to fight rather than wasting bullets. This aspect just feels so dated and poorly implemented.

Performance seems to have improved in the seemingly more demanding areas which is very weird. Game itself has also got better but there are definitely a lot of bugs particularly with NPC's. Combat is pretty woeful and not too indifferent from Deus Ex Human Revolution. The menu interface is very convoluted and needlessly complex - takes a lot of getting used to along with all the items and their functions. Seems like they've tried too hard at times. Anyhow, I've gone more into the city now and it looks staggering at times The story is very weak - I seem to be doing things and I don't know why. The characters are also pretty bland and I'm not really sold on the writing either. Jackie seems good but I feel like I've missed something. At the start of the game it advances 6 months but the mistake they made is not communicating anything from this period because it's clear a lot of it is relevant to what I'm doing now.

Not seen that yet but I've had 3 crashes in less than an hour. Enough to take you out of the game completely and spoilt it tbh

Extremely overhyped, think I try and get a refund and say its faulty..

I hope they fix the ps4 version, its borderline unplayable sometimes due to crashing, input lag, lagging etc etc list goes on

Event Title: DSC Raid Event Author: Baabcat Calendar: Destiny Calendar Event Date: 12/10/2020 08:00 PM anyone up for a raid tonight - could do standard, or try one of the (relatively easy challenge modes, like all solar / all void? DSC Raid N.B. If viewing this via the FG App, please visit the Calendar event via browser to RSVP. Thanks.

@GrebothIndeed, Willow Springs international, looking at 15 laps with 5x tyres and 4x or 5x fuel. Any tyre in race and qualifying but must use hards for one lap minimum in race. Great write up by the way 🙂

Absolutely by far the best This guy gets it spot on. I have no problems with people joining session but they have to admit it, strict Sbmm should not be in the game, and if some people use work around to have fun good for them, it's a fucking game. All this participation, holding hand bullshit is a modern day disease to coin a phrase.... Get better

Show me your Xmas jumpers people!

Yeah I do like his style I haven't really watched any gameplay, just enough to see if I was interested.

Thanks very much dude! obvs PS voucher and I shall spend it wisely haha GGFG!

Jumper = sweater? We got onesies over here!

I love GGReloaded's video on it
