Grats all! Display them well.

I've noticed so many instances where I've been going something like 2-9 and then suddenly finished the game with 40+ kills and less than 15 deaths. I have also been in situations where I've started brightly on a hot 10-0 streak let's say, and then finished the game with a score of 16-14 or summat. Other times my aim has been off or I haven't been able to kill someone easily and in others I have been able to melt with minimal effort. Suddenly all the bullshittery begins to make sense. I would love to see how EA do it for FIFA - ''player not allowed to win the match so even if the ball is on the goal line, their shot goes over the bar''

I'm starting to fall in love with this game, just exploring out of mission is a blast. I seem to have escaped any bugs other than a weird rag doll moment from someone I bravely shot in the back while they were in a fight with the NCPD. I've had some upgrades, plus better guns and the shooting is feeling better. I hope they've sorted the PS4 version with last night's update.

Bikes are awesome!

100% agree with this Phil. Its like they're trying to change how Mourinho is seen in the public eye. He really isn't that defensive at all. He's just a tactical genius imo. He's getting the best out of Spurs and the football they do play far better than most teams in many pockets when i've watched.

@Emma is the latest winner of the Giveaway winning a voucher of her choice for December 11th! Well done and Enjoy!

Congratulations to all the winners. 👏🏻

Congratulations to all.

Well this years sucked ass and we've all missed out on things but you can always rely on this place to put a smile on your face and fill up your phone's gallery with some pretty important images and videos. I'd just like to add to the thanks given to Lee and the team behind this place, and yes even Dave make sure stuff is updated knibbe ( odd when I typed that phone suggested knobhead 😂) Anyway we'll find all for making this place what it is and make it an interesting read. Hopefully when this shit is over we can get another meet sorted.

Wow thanks a lot guys! I used to come here in the MW2 days, I've always enjoyed the banter and general topics discussed and also reading about how people's lives are getting on. I stopped playing COD and most video games for about 6-7 years. I came back on BO4 and feel privileged to have found this community again. I believe Chris (Tigerbruge) told me the forum was still going when I found him on PS4 and messaged him. It really brightens your day coming here, even for a quick reply on a workbreak or a well thought out post or topic you have in mind. Because here people listen and want to share everyone else's joys and tough times. I totally agree with Tronic that Lee is FG'er of the year every year and that Diddums is an absolute legend for starting this wonderful forum. Thanks a lot again! Here is a picture of a happy sleepy Dad with his daughter, as I was on night feeds all last night. 😃

Not sure if this is a remake or a new game but hopefully it’ll be better than the last. The original on the N64 was magnificent for its time and it was great to revisit it again on the 360 arcade

In 2018, I set up the FG Awards as a way to recognise a few people within the FG family to say thank you for what they have done to help others. I hope that all will enjoy the awards and maybe start to hope one day they'll get one themselves. I feel proud we can do such things in a year which i know most would want to forget. I promised to have a good send off to 2020 and that's what we're gonna do below! Young FGer of the Year We've played years with him but its only over the last 6-12 months where we've able to really get him part of the group where he has shined through many raid completions on Destiny 2. Not standing for just making up the numbers either, he has been able to help many inexperienced FGers to their first raid clearance ever on Destiny and other more experienced folk to get their first ever clearances for newer raids when it was virtually at its hardest point. I can't wait for him to get more involved with everyone, as he has fantastic skills and extremely mature head on his shoulders that really helps explain even the most difficult scenario to most inexperienced team player. You should be real proud of that boy, Bob @Baabcat . Well done Charlie! Winner - @Venom - Charlie FG Noobie of the Year Its been a joy to have this guy around after joining FG in April and has embraced everything about what we are since. Getting involved on FG Fridays games, offering to be part of teams where possible to help achieve goals, putting his views across the entire of FG, including creating his own PPR for his trials and tribulations on PS Trophy hunting! He's always up to give anything a go and his positive attitude is what we've needed over such a turbulent year. FG is a better place with the small Welshman (who'd have thought it?). Well done Paul! Winner - @slamminbones - Paul FG Guardian Down Award The FG Awards wouldn't be awards without one being about making funny moments happen, even if they didn't intend it! When I think of every FG Friday this year, I always wanted to make sure he was there. He'll play some games even if he's propping the bottom of the leaderboard up, getting shotgunned in the face every 2 seconds, or getting smashed off the GTA track. His deadpan way of life is brilliant and we'd be lost without him to be honest. His love/hate relationship he has for games is just incredible as he will play through any type of crap to have fun with anyone here and that attitude and commitment you just can't buy. Don't ever change Gary. And thank you for all you do outside of this for FG. Always massively appreciated. Winner - @techno - Gary FG Archbishop of Banterbury This award was most jovial and joker of the pack this year. He's been in the FG Wilderness for a while now but since coming to the BIG FG meet up last October, we have been graced with his ever present glorious self in a multitude of colourful goop. He has a funny knack of being able to bring the fun whatever the occasion, in his sexy accent and possible beer smelling mouth. And even though he usually doesn't know what the hell is going on, I don't think this man doesn't ever not care about any FGer in this place. If he could, he'd do anything for you - and guaranteed to put a smile on your face via his 1 minute game videoclips of something completely random. We're extremely lucky to have you Cal! Winner - @TheMuggySpud - Cal FG Skills Award This could've gone to a few people this year. @Greboth still knocking it out the park in whatever he makes in Minecraft and Artwork, @Teenwolf25 and @FallenDark200 making strides in solo/2-man runthroughs on Destiny 2 activities and raids, @datfroggieguy 's capacity to eat all the camos and cod challenges for breakfast, @tronic44's clever base antics in 7 Days with everyone else chipping in.....the list just goes on. But for once, I see a guy who is relentless - and i mean utterly relentless - and finding enough clips of mini plays to cause anyone to go into full panic if we had to make him another montage video of just the past week (you should check his PPR out as its pretty darn amazing). He has a great attitude towards how to tackle certain challenges and shares what could work for people. I'm sure having his newly born premature daughter home for Christmas is a way better present than this could ever show, however Kenny's skills won't go unnoticed any longer! Top stuff, squire! Winner - @IRaMPaGe - Kenny FGer of the Year When I can't do stuff around here, it gets to me. And i've learned that even myself can lean on people even when I didn't need to. Not just keeping FG going, but moving it forward to something even more can enjoy in a year that we'd all want to forget is remarkable really. He's helped out massively with under the hood stuff, like moderation, donations, game days/nights, event creation...more than you people will realise. But above all, he's a geniune man that wants us as a family to achieve all the things we want to, on a personal and family level. He'll always be interested in what you have to say and probably felt like he's sacrificed many years of his life to this place in doing so! Like FG isn't the same with most of you all being around, it certainly isn't FG if Phil isn't around. Thanks for all that you do Phil, you sir a gent and a Legend. Winner - @phil bottle - Phil FG Hall of Fame Each year I try to honour the achievements of people in the FG family that will show on paper, not just in real life that they will always be FG no matter what and rightly should be invited into the Hall of Fame. He is outspoken, volatile, random, hilarious, caring, hilarious, OTT, crazy and damn right impossible not to love (trust me, i've tried many times). It was never going to go much longer until this chap got into this because he built the foundations of FG. He built what why we're all here in the first place. When you realise at first hand the stuff I see in what's involved in everything that FG does, its incredible that we even started to exist in the first place. He lights up the room when he comes online, he even makes people laugh on the amount of times he then leaves the controller for his 53rd Poo of the night. But we wouldn't change him. And neither should anyone as that what we get with Diddums, right? Dave, thank you for all that you have done and also continue to do for FG. It never goes unnoticed in my book. Winner - @Diddums - Dave And with that, we're done! 2020 has been a dick of a year. But you're all here. We're all together, fighting the good fight and i'm sure 2021 will bring the best out in FG. GGFG

Just looked back through this whole thread. Man James you can really catch a good screenie. Your making all these games look beautiful new or old. I barely take any, a screenshot is something I take by mistake if I fudge the share button on PS4 with a very clumsy thumb placement. Good on ya tho, even if I don't play or have played many of these games. Sure are nice to look at!

I've noticed games of Dom like that with the halftime quite a few times. Either I've melted the first half and struggled the 2nd half or vice versa. Is absolutely bullshit that the Sbmm is altered even during or midgame. I mean what chance do we have? It's hard to tell on the average games if you just had bad luck/positioning or aim or if the game has screwed you over for doing too well in previous matches. Never in a cod in the past have I been punished for doing good. But when having a bad game, sometimes the misery is continuous or the enemy is just better. It is obvious sometimes when the game shafts you tho, at least as time goes on it's easier to spot. I still think the last 10 games spm graph is wonky. Sometimes it's overinflating the average by some beastly 800 SPM I don't remember having in a session.

Funny thing is, after 11 games, we've scored more goals than in any other season since the 1960s. I'm no Jose lover, as you know very well, and I'd be the first to say the football is shit to watch, as that would back up my fears. But it isn't the case. He has shown a few people he's not a spent force or one trick pony, and they haven't the wit to get their heads around it. On Thursday on BT they spent the whole time trying to talk Winks and Deli out of the club. It's boring as fuck substandard shite and I turn the sound off when I watch the game, which makes it a lot more pleasant experience 😁

Look at this shite. The game can adjust difficulty IN REAL TIME during a match. So if you are doing well it can make it so you need to be more accurate to actually shoot people. So it's not actually SBMM. Games are basically rigged.

Soundtrack was awesome too even compressed plus it was probably one of only a few games on the N64 that had voice acting due to the cartridge capacity. The lighting effects were amazing too even to this day.

From what I just read, it has nothing to do with the original game, other than using the USP.

The original on the N64 was very underrated. It had multiplayer with bots. I had to get an expansion pack to play it. Goldeneye on steroids.

There's instructions on how to install the mod on their wiki: Installing The Mod | Wiki.js WIKI.DARKNESSFALLSMOD.COM A Guide on How to Install the Darkness Falls Mod Currently in the process of following it so will update if it works. Edit: Yup seems to work 🙂

It depends, if we race the weekly races they're only announced Monday so doesn't leave much time to do it but whenever there's time then that's the plan.

Congratulations! These awards are all well deserved. You boys keep gaming alive. Well except @Diddums literally thought he threw all his gaming stuff away until last week. Seriously though, love getting together and gaming with you lot.

I shall inhabit your skin proudly like a cockney hannibal lecter, but magic mushrooms instead of fava beans cos I dont know what fava beans are.

Congratulations everyone! This is a nice roundup to Christmas with acknowledgments and awards! 🍾❤️🎉🎄 Also wanted to say that everyone I've played with has been absolutely amazing! FG rocks! Also great job for arranging all of this @GazzaGarratt!

Congrats all! Been really good playing with you guys throughout this shit storm ☺️

Nice job everyone! I'm especially happy for Phil, Dave, Kenny, and Cal. Well done, Lee.

Absolutely delighted for all of the lads who won their awards ! Its important as a community to stick together and acknowledge when some of us go above and beyond. Well done lads 🥳🥳

All truly well deserved. Merry Christmas everyone. This is still my favourite corner of the internet.

Congratulations guys! keep up the good work! keep that FG train rollin........GGFG!

Congrats everyone! Can’t believe The Mad Twatter ran away with an award too @TheMuggySpud 😂😂

Congratulations to all! Every single one well deserved and great to see @GazzaGarratthonouring the right people though you deserve plenty of credit yourself. On a personal level, @phil bottle I can’t think of anyone better to pass the torch of fg’er of the year to...well maybe not a Londoner but I don’t hold that against you too much.

I love you lads so much! Congrats to all of you and also everyone who visits and makes this place what it is ❤

Congrats to all the winners, big props to @GazzaGarrattfor pulling this together!

Lee, you're the FGer of the year every year mate👍

Well done guys and all very much deserved! 👍👏👏👏👏

A massive congrats to all the winners, all fully deserved! ❤️❤️ Also @GazzaGarratt ❤️

Congrats to the winners! and Merry Christmas!!

Another thing I love about this game are all the references to pop culture. Some of the missions being named after famous songs always tickles me the right way and I also did a sidemission which basicly pays tribute to a scene from the US version of The Office, fucking brilliant. Also had my first actual bug that wasn't just the game crashing. Went into a building where someone laid a trap for me and shut the garage door behind me so I couldn't leave until the target in there was dead. Fair enough... Except the target could glitch through the closed garage door. Luckily a nearby gangmember killed him while I was trapped inside 🤣 I've got the footage of it saved as well.

Just to add, while I've only played a few hours, I like the game very much. I think it's very immersive and it goes at a fairly swift pace. Almost too quick. I'm playing on Hard difficulty so I'm save gaming fairly frequently too. I'm still focused on shooting but...using other means to my ends as well. Killing an android npc by hacking him and making him commit suicide is not something I ever thought I'd be doing in a game. For example. Really thought they'd manage 4k on the PS4 Pro, but as DF remind us, it was a similar story with Witcher 3 to begin with. Whether they will continue to work on fixing the PS4 version is another matter...

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.

I've finished the "main" questline at about 60 hours in and there's plenty more content to do, including tracking down the remaining cultists, discovering who the head of the cult is, etc. I want to continue to play because I want to see the story completed. It's a pretty well written game, character and story wise, minor quibbles aside.
