I've not even tried Control from last month yet, I hear its decent. This month they have knocked it out the park, across the river and into my back garden🤗

Totally unexpected to see FF7 Remake there!! I'm sure I've seen people at FG play Remnant from the Ashes havent we?

@RenFengge he had to have eye surgery because he has to much extra skin around his eye lids and they were rolling back and his eyelashes were stabbing his eyes causing small cuts on his eyes leading to alcers in his eyes so to correct it he basically had plastic surgery and had the extra skin removed around his eyelids and now instead of rolling in they roll out like there suppose to. He goes gets his stitches out in about 10 days. That was Tuesday when he had surgery.

Wow what a line up.

I think D2 is in a pretty good place all in all and this update / road map just makes it better . Personally never minded the power grind, takes two weeks max in a 13 week season , but i know it’s off putting for some. Whats great is they are making it easier to be able to reach out and do the hard stuff , that’s were the challenge is and it’s great that more people wil be able to have a go. Hoping they fix trials as well, made the right noises just need to get on with it. D1 trials could be fun even if I’m not the best PvP , currently spuds horrible and haven’t been tempted to try it, and let’s face it, I do everything in destiny !

Ok, so here we go. Spring Season starts on March 2nd and each Tuesday we will dedicate one race as a League race. Points for places from 12 weekly races. Best results from 9 races count towards final tally to decide seasonal winners. This will be decided after all 12 races are done. I'll add the specific points available at the end. I'll put a league table up after race 1. Each seasonal winner will also generate points for the Grand Final in December. Spring Season weekly tracks Season_Week Track Class s1_wk1 Circuit de la Sarthe (Le Mans) Gr.3 s1_wk2 Autodromo De Interlagos Gr.3 s1_wk3 Autodromo Lago Maggiore GP Gr.3 s1_wk4 Autodromo Nazionale Monza Gr.3 s1_wk5 Autopolis International Racing Course Gr.4 s1_wk6 Fuji Speedway Gr.2 s1_wk7 Dragon Trail - Seaside Gr.3 s1_wk8 Red Bull Ring Gr.4 s1_wk9 Tokyo Expressway N200 s1_wk10 WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca Gr.3 s1_wk11 Williow Springs International Raceway Gr.4 s1_wk12 Alsace Gr.2 I'll add the tyres, fuel etc a week in advance. I'm also open to switching the class for each race, with enough notice. There will also be post race stewards enquiries for poor driver sportsmanship and points may be reallocated. Might need impartial volunteers for this 😁 Races - FG league points 1st place = 25 2nd place = 20 3rd place = 15 4th place = 12 5th = 11 Etc DNF = 0 Season winners will take 8 points into the grand final, where all scores are reset. The grand final will comprise 3 races, of which the last carries double points. Gimme a shout if there's anything unclear or if you have any constructive criticism of 👍

I’ve always believed that they need to make weapons that people will want to use. Sunsetting was just their way of making people play the way THEY wanted you too as oppose to HOW you wanted too. Case in point, all the DSC weapons are awesome. A couple season of the hunt guns were decent and most of the chosen weapons are good too.

I've been thinking about getting a budget gaming PC for a while which for the most part will be used for website related stuff, but it'd be nice to play some games too, including some of the more modern titles and racing sims if at all possible. Main considerations: - I have a 32" IPS monitor thingy which isn't 4k but it's 1440 I think? I can check on that... - Budget: no more than £800 or below £1000 at a stretch - I have a display port connection free on the back of the monitor so a video card with that on would be nice, unless HDMI is the only way forward with gaming? I don't know. I could swap connections about if required. - I don't mind building the PC, and a pre built one would be ideal, but I'm not fussed - As much bang for buck really, ideally 16gb of relatively decent RAM, OK processor and vid card if at all possible. So I could do with some help from savvy UK people on this one. I used to build PCs all the time so I had a really good handle over hardware requirements but things have moved on, to the point where Intel aren't necessarily the only choice these days? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Phil, do you think they’ll ever come back down to MRSP? Also, listening to Jayztwocents yesterday there are some car manufacturers experiencing difficulty getting ECU causing production stoppages. In the eyes of the world, cars are more important than video gamers. link:

Yep, soon as the cards are properly available and properly priced you'll be sorted with £1400 to play with👍 Look forward to it❤

Personally @Mikepjbell lets know your realistic budget pal. Whatever it is, 300, 500, 1000. Lets see if we can all help you at least find the parts to get you a half decent PC. Sounds like you don't need a monitor which is a good start. Have you got mouse and keyboard already too? Give us something to play with and we'll see what we can come up with!

I agree with that Gary @techno . I think they're still worried how to fix the gun meta without sunsetting as they make it clear they'll have to think what to do as they go along the journey. I think people just have to come to terms with nerfs along the way to outstanding guns. This season has had a different feel to it. Its the first built in the 'new technical way' backend and I do think we benefit from that so seeing some actions now is very promising. And actions more than words is what people want to see. I just see it now as keeping an eye out for any deals on the current season pass and beyond light because we don't have to pay for a DLC until into next year now.

You know I'll always be in @phil bottle. Standard as FG gets. @JBR-Kiwi suggestion is a good one which we absolutely need. Ultimately for me I didnt see anything changing on how we play on a Tuesday. The only difference is one race gets recorded (like it does already) and points gets given out. Thats it. Its all for fun, I doubt we'll ever have sweaty stuff here so we keep it fresh like we have. I personally think just not racing until June with us makes no sense at all buddy, just cos you think its a little sweaty. I won't play if it gets more sweaty than it is and knowing all of us I doubt it would ever get there. The ones that are already the way they are will be the same. My opinion has always been anyone can race and whoever is in this thingy just gets points allocated. Race, don't get points for it if you don't want and crack on enjoying the races, like you already are. Ultimately everyone has a prerogative to join/not join so I'll totally respect it if you do but the main purpose isn't to stop people from racing for 3 months when a race will be raced the same way as always, just with something extra on here.

Ok, first thoughts... Movement feels way off. When just slightly pressing the left stick forward, which would be stealthy/slow movement, puts you in an almost power walk. I was literally flying by the captain in the prologue mission. Gunplay, cover and skills feel like a weaker version of the Division. Hell, the control scheme is exactly the same as it. Which isn’t bad, but this needs a lot more polish. Lots and lots of graphical and audio glitches. Some synch issues too but it is a demo after all. Graphically, it looks really good. Story so far seems interesting but unless the above control issues are addressed before full release, I’ll wait until a sale.

Instead of sunsetting maybe introduce new perks/ perk combos. I think the main issue was sunsetting armour which never made sense. I've got back into destiny even PvP 😂 (hate stasis) but this season's update is just more fun. I've done 3 raid completions (the last one before was kings fall) because I just got asked to and it's fun and you don't need to know how to do it. With the reintroduced strikes updated and more fun and vog coming back the game seems to be heading of not there yet Tina good place.

I despise EA. Every studio I have loved that they touched is basically dead. They destroy cult-status games and their studios. The BioWare acquisition was worrying ever since ME2. The Anthem mess... yeah, they gave funding, gobs of funding... but also required them to make a GaaS instead of what they do well. This is similar to the issue on forcing BioWare to use Frostbite for Dragon Age Inquisition. Yes, BioWare, generally, thought they could make magic happen like they usually do. But, it was not helpful to be dictated guidelines for a game type that they don't typically do. For BioWare and EA --> A plague on both houses! At least Sony acquires studios and lets them go do what that studio does well. That's how it should be. Not whatever crazy, greedy, dictatorship EA is.

I can’t say I’m surprised it was cancelled. Considering the negative press they received regarding a lot of the issues with the game, I doubt it would’ve succeeded even with the reboot.

Glad they cancelled it - literally the BioWare team left are largely ones that didn't even make the game so it would be asking a lot of them to reboot it when not even the original experienced staff knew what they were doing. The game was essentially dead after a month anyway. Hard to believe this was in development for as long as Red Dead Redemption 2 but Anthem clearly had no concise identity of what it wanted to be - it probably started off as an RPG and then they chased a multitude of trends through development and what ultimately dropped was a half-baked concoction in what was then a saturated genre where better alternatives existed that were built as intended from the ground up. I hate EA but I don't think they were even the ones to blame here - they gave BioWare a lot of funding and a lot of time too but the devs just made a meal of it. They didn't even have anything other than a few ideas on paper after 2 years. The only thing the publishers were guilty of was not keeping a closer eye on the project. Nice to see EA get partly ridiculed thanks to their existing reputation though. BioWare should now focus on Dragon Age 4 solely and I hear that they are dropping all live service features (why the fuck would these be in the game anyway) and keeping it single player which is good. Another studio completely ruined by a failed game but this was so poor on many levels, it was inevitable. It's practically a new team now so let's see what they do with DA4.

Name: Hunting Lodge Location: FG Server, Elder Base Camp So @RenFengge and I promised a portal to the Elder as we dicked around trying to get the Stag. With this goal in mind, I wandered up to the Elder location on the map and scouted a place to build. I saw a troll and took him out from a massive rock face overlooking the water, and what appears to be mountains. So I think to myself, self...can I build a hunting lodge INSIDE a rock face and fill it in with wood. Well the answer is, well of course you can. So tonight I give to you the comfy hunting cabin that sleeps 8 in my first super compact Japanese style bunks (google "capsule hotel), now that's space saving! With my inner Ikea going, I went about decorating our hunting cabin with all of our prey. Front and center is Marvin the troll I killed to christen the site. As you can tell, the outside has a small footprint with only some roof showing. The inside is basically glamping, although, 100 hours in and I've yet to see anyone built a shitter.... Hope everyone enjoys, the portal name is "Elder" and can be found at on the left hand side of the ring in the mead hall. OOO fun fact, I also built a path right to the Elder alter so no one gets lost on our upcoming hunting trip!!

We miss having you on! I can't be the only one mining and chopping and getting resin to resupply the artist!

Oh my gosh you guys have been going nuts 😳 I haven't been on since Sunday @TurboR56Mini @RenFengge and the both of you have outdone yourselves again awesome work you two! Can't wait to jump on and see what you have accomplished 😌 must say enjoy playing with the both of ya good times.

Honestly coming from someone who just finished a pc build, the market for gpu's is rough. You can get maybe a 5700xt and still play 1440p but higher resolutions might be a problem. 60fps at 1440p or higher at around 1k is do able just gotta know where to look. I'd say if you can find a ryzen 5 5600 for mrsp but it's litterally like finding needles in a haystack. Also depends on the games your trying to play as well. Like nothing fancy the mobo and storage psu won't be a huge deal. I wanted a system to play anything at high res. At 1440 so I went with a ryzen 5900x and a rtx 3080 so most things will be fine at 1440p but that combo right now your looking at paying around 2k alone. Best thing to do is your research and maybe actually look at forums and maybe join a couple pc groups on Facebook as well. If you want any other help let me know.

Rumors are terrible... but I'm so here for it. Because 1) I love the original trilogy and never knew modern games could have such depth outside the JRPG world. 2) I've sort of been a fan of Cavill since The Count of Monte Cristo. And, 3) He's a gamer and will do his best to do justice to the series. Henry Cavill teases 'secret project' that might involve Mass Effect | PC Gamer WWW.PCGAMER.COM The actor posted an image on his Instagram that contains blurry text about Mass Effect 3.

Now then, my only issue with this is what version of Shep we will get. The thing about the games is that you could play him as a nice guy, or a bit of a wanker, you could choose your love interest....and you have to choose on more than one occasion which of your companions lives or dies. Netflix did a show a year or two ago where you could choose between options at various stages, that would be cool if you could choose your Shepherd and some of his or hers or theres decisions 🙂

I dunno, we all read what happened, they went into with no thought or any idea what they wanted to do, except make money of course. If it's just a soulless exercise for the mighty dollar and no one is putting their heart into it I find it totally normal that it would fail.

god imagine a well made mass effect trilogy series, it will destroy me emotionally like the first time i played them, it's easily the best game series for me even with the mediocre ending

It’s going to be a mixed bag next week. We’re doing a rally race, a wet race and a standard race, of which the latter will be the first FG League race, and places will determine points and standings in the Spring Season FG Race League. Calendar for next week will be up today and full league schedule for the Spring Season will be up by the end of the week. I’ll do a thread on that and explain how the points system works etc
