I received a letter yesterday saying I'm getting £2300 back from a loan overpayment (no idea how the fuck that even happens!). Which meant I did what any sensible person would do: spent a load of it on something I don't even need 😁 So I've bought an LG C2 OLED TV. With a £75 Ebay voucher I got one for £874 (I only got 42" as I sit a couple of feet from my TV). So pretty soon I'll be able to look down on all the peasants with TVs that are merely 60hz 🧐

Great review, definitely want to see this now!

This one confuses me also. They are trying to keep guns from being OP but with that they have made it where your gun is better without attachments. For the most part I fun at a max 3 attachments. One has zero negative effects then the other two counter acts each other.

Finally watched all quiet on the Western front. German dubbed English but we'll dubbed to the point of I barely noticed. Not too much dialogue to be fair but the way it was shot built up the horror or the suspense. It really showed the massive waste of human life in ww1 and the futility of it all but also the sheer bravery in the face of certain death. Long film but I was hooked from start to finish. The look on the main characters face after those final orders said it all.

Its the first CoD in...ever that I'm actually interested in levelling up and getting the Challenges done on all the guns in MW2 so I thought lets get a thread up so people can share when they've managed to get a Camo done - maybe also tell us if it was a decent gun, or an absolute grindfest to get it! Looking forward to seeing below what you all can get in this one 😎

I've thumbed them all up apart from Santa Sena and Taraq. They're all pretty playable 6v6 maps - nothing that will go down in COD folklore but it's much better than having 3 decent ones, 3 awful ones and 3 you never want to play ever. I maintain, whoever is responsible for the border crossing map should be jailed.

Good idea, should give a good idea on the overall view of the maps once a few have voted

I might have to check it out. I like obscure films that nobody knows about.

Excellent races last night. I used to hate Brands Hatch but I've found you just need to be brave in a few corners and all good. Kiwi was hobbled by yours truly at the first corner as i was too slow to react when he came across me, I say too slow to react, I tried but had a little tap from behind...😁 Sorry @JBR-Kiwi Lee was the source of his own downfall but for most the tyre wear had a big impact. Was surprised to see Kiwi pit, for example. Despite a couple of errors the mighty Greboth won the race and Nick and Tom getting closer all the time. As for @slamminbones we're all pretty convinced he spent the night with someone paying attention to his gear stick 😅 All post up the latest table over the weekend. Week off next week!

Yeah, it's completely killed the Gunsmith for me. The real fun about this aspect was building a fully-kitted gun and balancing the positive effects with the negative but here, if you have 3 or more attachments, you will be at a disadvantage in at least two areas - usually ADS time or recoil which are pretty key, unless you cancel them out and then it's basically the same as the gun being barebones by default. Without them providing the numbers either, it is also impossible to determine the true impact that these effects have. You can literally have a gun where ADS time is reduced 4 times which is likely crippling but it's silly that we don't know if it's 0.1 seconds or something like 0.5 seconds for each attachment. I've found one underbarrel which has no negatives and about 10 attachments on some guns which have exactly the same +/-. Even the blueprint builds must be catastrophically bad! There's just too much bloat and it's a headache trying to sift through trying to craft a gun even just choosing 2-3 attachments in the basic sense. The whole thing needs a rework really.

Yeah, still seems to hit like a truck for some people so its a timely reminder to keep safe and healthy as much as you can. Glad you're over the worst, James ❤️ Being ill in the dark Winter evenings is one of the worst feelings you can have imo.

I’ve finished the M4,TAQ and the Kostov 762. Working on the Lachmann now. Running through the ARs while leveling the launchers at the same time. I’ll move to on to other guns depending on what the maps are since ARs are viable on every map.

If that’s the plan then they are dumb. A very large part of the CoD community enjoy doing challenges and going for camos. There’s no way in hell they intended for people not to use attachments especially since there are only 20 levels roughly per gun. It’s a good way not to make them OP like in MW 2019. I would rather all guns be strong than only a few.

I actually think thats a good thing. KC games where it swings either way just near the end are always the games we all as a team get hyped to try and get the last tag for the win. I find its 1 in every 5/6 games we probably get absolutely turned over, which i'm fine with. Its gonna happen from time to time. re the attachments thoughts @J4MES OX4D @TigerBurge @Luseth , maybe its a launch thing. For instance, make stock guns that everyone accesses pretty decent feeling so they get into the game and a later patch will rebalance the stock guns? I think thats a sound model how to get people engaged initially anyway. I'm finding the right scope is DEFINITELY making a difference. I also think having less attachments on should work too. It would annoy me if most guns would only work well with teh full 5 attachments on it. I'm sure theres some good combos people have found though as they've unlocked way more stuff.

I saw that, generally I run 2 or 3 attachments rather than trying to fully kit out the gun. I find a sight is important, I sometimes fiddle with the ammo but the grips and such I don't utilise so much because of all the added negatives. I'm enjoying the game more than I thought I would, I think my only issue and it tend's to be an issue with COD games is more often than not you get half a lobby fully of players ignoring the game modes and essentially playing TDM. Hardpoint and game modes like that you can see the seconds or captures a player does and you will usually see 4 or 5 with less than a couple of seconds or no captures, just baffles me that, why don't people go play TDM then? Or is it just because the quickplay has everything on by default?

This video shows how stupid the gunsmith is or the fact that it is used to give the illusion of content @GazzaGarrattit seems odd it's a crazy amount of pointless attachments 👍 I'm sure you'll have a positive spin on it though 😂

You guys are all a bunch of sweats!! @GazzaGarratt and @TigerBurge Nothing gold so far, been using the M4 and some of that first LMG the MG34. Just recently reached level 23 and unlocked the AK (Kostov). Man even without attachments that thing absolutely melts. Only played a few games with it, but it's strong.

Well all I can say is getting lapped twice was well worth it.

Main take is that he hasn't got the time for his other 'superstar' role, but I know there was talk if this went off course too much from the main story he loved that he wouldn't do it anymore. I do wonder if Netflix are probably just cashing in on the series because they know even if no one wants to see Liam Hemsworth to do it, people that have watched 3 seasons will at least give Season 4 a watch. Not sure how to feel as we don't know how Liam will be, just know Henry is an absolute blast as Geralt.

There's been strong rumours of an MGS1 remake in the last year or so but with Kojima gone and Konami being bastards, even if it did happen, I don't think they'd do a very good job. Konami also hate making money it seems as they have so many big IP's on their books but they don't seem to want to make the most of them.

About half of COD players just go for kills. They know full well that they are playing an objective mode and what is required to win but most of the time they will only seek as many kills as possible even if the team loses heavily. I don't think this attitude will ever change - they've tried in the past to bolster objective XP and reduce kill XP but even then people will rather go 21-9 and 0 captures than 30-27, 7 captures, a win plus a fat load of XP on top.

I don't play those terrible game modes 😉🤣 Its crazy the scores, I've had so many drawn games or ones where the final score is within 1 or 2 tags 🤣

Imagine it dark, barefoot and your toe ends up in it's mouth. Uggghhhh too much man. 🤢

Yeah take care man, although your gaming doesn't appear to have suffered too much 😁 Hope you fully recover soon ❤️

Good to hear your on the mend.

Glad to hear your getting better J4MES. 👍

Haha sorry Phil, but yeah I'm not totally opposed to taxidermy. Altho having the beloved family pet done is a bit too far imo. Imagine having to look at it all the time. Also the random aspect of spilling something on it. Wouldn't imagine the dry cleaners would entertain cleaning red wine off the poor old pooch. Just standing or trodden over it would be a bit disrespectful and strange.

Agreed, Cavill has been great as Geralt. Such as shame as it’s such a good series of games (books can get a little stagnant) with some great characters to explore and they have nearly tanked it already.

You're probably right @Greboth, although I clearly hold the pad so hard I can't keep flashing my lights at whoever is in front of me 😅 I've definitely relaxed somewhat and maybe because I gave GT7 a go right from the start has given me extra confidence. Last week's track though was horrible and rightly I ended up much further down the pecking order.

what a trainwreck this show has been from the start, the only good thing about it was cavill as geralt and now he is out there was also this piece of news a few days before the news of cavill's departure Netflix's The Witcher: Former Producer Claims Some Writers 'Actively Disliked the Books and Games' - IGN WWW.IGN.COM Beau DeMayo, a former producer and writer on The Witcher, has claimed that some writers on the Netflix series "actively disliked"... honestly i will watch until the next season just for cavill, then i'll pretend it doesn't exist

Watched a really good sci-fi comedy yesterday about hunting spectres that I would thoroughly recommend

Hell yeah! Real can have Bale and Suarez, give us Özil and Benzema and we'll win everything this year! (Or atleast not get knocked out of CL the first match after groupstages...)

Quick question, if Moyes were to get sacked (not saying he will, just saying if) who would be a viable replacement?

Yeah, I was thinking the same. Had Utd won Rich would've been singing all over the forum. They just didn't turn up did they. 1 point from their games with Chelsea, Liverpool and now City, not the form of Champions is it.

Well it was a matter of time......Paulo Di Canio is now unemployed. Can't say I'm surprised, think he'd bitten off more than he could chew to be honest. He has the man management skills of a house brick!

City gave United an anal ramming!

As if mikel scored... Mourinhos interview after the game... Sounds like he's lost the plot tbh... He wants to play mata, but only if mata changes position and changes his game... Should have sold him before the window closed...

Mourinho, y u do dis?

Rooney looked something like his best last night, despite the natty head gear. Utd were really lucky with their 1st goal, but overall were worth their win I thought. Only saw the goals from the City game, but Yaya Toure's goal was a peach. All in all not a bad start for the PL side's in this year's CL. I'm intruiged to see how Swansea get on in the Europa League, I've got a feeling they could go far, similar to Fulham's run a few years back.

Pffffff! That game was tense to watch! 2-2 is a good result in the end after being pinned back for the whole 2nd half... My favourite is back tomorrow... THHHHEEE CHAAAAAMPIOOONS!!!

Rory delap... The only possible reason he was a professional footballer was that monster throw in... Have I spelt professional correctly? It looks wierd

Scotland winning.

Totally agree, he tries bless him but he is shit, he really is... If he scores the winner though I'll love him forever!

The ref started the game without the Macedonia goalkeeper on the pitch .

Um, I would, um, say that, ermm, I'm really confident we'll, em, win. Maybe.

He does have a great record or England but he has been on a very dry spell of late for stoke... Is Defoe injured? Personaly I think people are preparing themselves for dissapointment or failure against Ukraine, sort of already making excuses... Really there is no reason why they should cause England any trouble if you compared the teams play by player... As we all know England tend to make a meal out of anyone, but in still confident of victory, a comfortable victory at that...

How it affects the leagues/national team is evident when you compare Germany to England. Germany have spent years and years growing their league and homegrown players and it is seen when you look at the number of German players within the squads.

I really don't want Mata to leave, by far my favourite player for Chelsea. Am I the only person who sees some transfers and thinks "Damn that ain't good for FIFA" eg. Eto'o in a pace whore prem team... Ouch
