  1. Yeah I think I'll pass.
  2. This do ya? I'll pop it in the post this evening 🙂
  3. What happened with your PC in the end? RAM sorted? Keep me updated on this one pls, if it's a hardware issue it needs resolving before your warranty is up. Also, I highly recommend all of you watch this video, there's a load of very useful stuff in here beyond the most barebones beginner stuff. This is where I learned about the backpack and mining stuff. I'll be concentrating on this this weekend:
  4. Philly I split your post as it was in the events section and merged it with mine, we were both typing out our excitement at the same time!
  5. I got a couple of hours in last night. Not as much as I'd have liked but it was a start nonetheless. The whole session was full of little niggly things: Leigh's PC was giving him trouble again. Dave's headset was giving him trouble. Nobody was showing up on the party system. Loads of little simple things which I suspect we'll have sussed in no time. That said, the foundation is there. With a bit more practice and experience I wouldn't be surprised if this becomes my next WoW. At one point I was even doing a bit of showy-offy flying, until I crashed. I will say however for that very brief moment I felt like a god, able to out maneuver anything that came my way. In fact, I felt a little bit like Khan in that scene where he's attacking Starfleet in Star Trek: Into Darkness (epic film, absolute must watch if you haven't already). Here's the scene: Now that being said, I decided to use my trusty Mustang Alpha because it's my ship that I own so regardless of what happens, that little beastie is always mine so I wanted to practice flying in it, so I left the big one which we've got on loan which in hindsight was stupid, I should've taken that big ass freighter and abused the fuck out of it to make as much bank as I can whilst I've got it. Anyway, I accepted a little package collection mission, a bit like that Death Stranding game but with spaceships. I went halfway across the galaxy to collect the package, realised I couldn't put it in my ship, so left it on the surface of whatever planet it came from and stuck a Hermes card in the mailbox, fuck 'em. I then had to go find some chump who went spelunking and got lost and died, spent over an hour in a cave searching for this Darwin award winner and couldn't find him so gave up. To my amazement however, I managed to negotiate the cave fairly well and even got the layout down, if all the caves are the same then I'll be just fine. Then Leigh came on, then Dave, then Rachel, (the Bottle was online for most of the night), and we spent most of the night just ironing out some bugs and stuff and discussing the basics like sensitivity and buttons n shit. All in all I achieved nothing, but the learning curve in this game is basically a wall, and it was fucking ace. I might even hop on tonight and do a bit more, it was honestly the first time in ages I've turned a game off and was legit pissed off I had to. @GazzaGarratt @phil bottle @Plumbers Crack @tronic44
  6. We need a game. There've been murmurs and whispers amongst the gamersphere that people are bored / uninterested in whatever's on the market nowadays. We've got the survival crew, @Nutcuttlit, @ChaosGladiator, @LordBaguette, @Misneach_, @J&B, @fg_cal and whoever else, who enjoy the survival games, I'm talking Ark, Conan, etc. Then there are the FPS players, @Plumbers Crack, @Plumbrodders, @Middle Class Caveman, @Greboth myself, Maz, Gary, Clive, and all the others. Then there are the PC master race which currently consists of @phil bottle, @Greboth, @phil bottle, @GazzaGarratt, @tronic44, myself and whoever else we can rope in to our band of merry men. There are of course the outliers, like @crispymorgan who has decided that hoes go before bros (I jest, bout time he found happiness), @TigerBurge who lacks the determination to hang with the cool kids, etc. @techno is in the middle of a BO4 resurgence because he lacks the testicular fortitude to purchase MW. Now what I'm about to say kills my soul because I know how happy it's going to make Dad / Leigh, but what do all these people, these gamers of various generations, various platforms, various interests have in common? Destiny. Destiny was the game that brought us all together as much as it kills me to admit because I'm so Anti-Destiny at the moment that it kills my soul to play it, but we can't deny that the game dragged all our sorry arses online to get shit done. We need another Destiny. We need another game which: Is on a platform playable to all, which in our case will be PS4. We all enjoy. We can hop on and play whether it be for 10 mins or 8 hours. Destiny 1 fulfilled all of these. Destiny 2 has moments of passing interest and not matter how much certain folks *cough* Leigh *cough* triy to cling on to the memories that D1 created for all of us, the simple fact is that Destiny 2 is not even in the same ballpark. I could go in to the reasoning for it, but that's a thread for another day. So folks. Let's find our game. To start off with, we're all on PS4, so that's a good starting point. I'm not saying quit on PC obviously, but PS4 is the route of least resistance. I want you all to list the games you enjoy, the games you don't enjoy (these can be whole genres too), and we're going to slowly eliminate games that we don't enjoy as a group. For funding, I don't want people to worry, we can work shit out, that's what we do. Criteria for a game: Must be multiplayer in teams of min 4. The cheaper the better, but like I said I don't want people to feel alienated / left out because of a few pences. So get cracking you lazy fucks, find us a game. Much love, Your favourite bastardcunt ❤️
  7. Does Baaaaaaab still post on here? Happy birthday Baaaaaaaab! I suspect he's too busy golddigging to hang amongst the commoners like us. Anyway, I couldn't think of anything funny to post so here's a picture of a drunk bobcat instead. @Baabcat
  8. The biggest tip, certainly for myself and @Plumbers Crack is learn the controls. They're really simple once you get the hang of it: A&D = strafe left & right. Q&E = yaw (spin) left & right. Space = vertically up (jump jets if you will). Ctrl = Down (opposite of space). W&S = faster & slower. Phil's tip no. 3 is a big one for me personally as I've probably spent over an hour just wondering how to get my ship out of a hangar. You need to ask them. Facepalm.jpg. Hoping to get on tonight, now that @tronic44 has the game he can hop on too!
  9. Wait having watched that vid, it means that prior to this patch everything was a wipe? What if you bought a ship using in-game dolla? I understand that purchasing a ship with irl dolla means you probably get to keep it but do you keep earned stuff too? is it even worth me firing it up before this new patch? I misunderstood this before, I thought you kept your wedge at least. Kind of dampens the whole “imma buy a space superyacht and willy wave at the filthy poors” thing 😞
  10. You telling us your head is worth 20k? Am I reading this right?
  11. Yeah it's nice and all, but...
  12. I will, of course, be buying the 890 Jump, so I can feel like I've achieved something in at least one aspect of my life.
  13. @Greboth buy Star Citizen.
  14. Ok let me just put this out there, when playing games like this, I often go in to "combat mode" which is when I go all quiet and put all my focus in to winning. I've never told you this before but it's the reason I occasionally go quiet on GTA V, it's because I've cranked the tunes up to max, voices muted, and full on attack mode. Nothing matters but the kill, and it's always accompanied by some badass music, so if I go quiet and start attacking shit, now you know why. It's not 'cos I don't love you, it's because in approx two minutes you'll be dragging my dead corpse from the remains of my ship whilst laughing at me.
  15. Ok so here's a size comparison chart for all the ships as of December 2019. It's a fucking huge image so I'm not embedding it, clickety click for zooms. https://i.imgur.com/kfrWUef.jpg My current ship is a Mustang, which in the image is right on the right hand side, just to the left of the biggest ship. I think we can all agree that we want that big-ass motherfucker on the left, the Javelin. Annoyingly, this ship is still in testing phases, but that gives us time to save up. Sadly there's no brochure for it either, like there is for the Mustang.
  16. Hello. Diddums here. I did some thinks. Think no. 1 is about what I own, which is a Mustang Alpha. I like this ship, it's my baby and it was gifted to me so it's staying in my fleet and will be upgraded to the max over time so I can shred noobs with it. That said, I want another ship. The Mustang can't hold packages which seems a bit meh, but it can fight, it can get out of shit and it can carry a few items of cargo (packages and cargo are two different things, one goes in your cargo bay and requires no interaction, the packages are little hand held items which you just fling anywhere in your ship. A bit like Death Stranding in space. I also understand that the Mustang can't carry any friends, and I happen to have a few of those, so I want the ability to carry them with me when I headbutt other spaceships. So I want a bigger ship. Can I only purchase ships with cash, or can I use in-game currency? I'd prefer to use in-game currency tbh. And that's my only think for now. I'll probably have more later. Thanks.
  17. Hmmmm, try a Thursday. I still have to break your other wings off.
  18. The game needs more maps, not this bollocks.
  19. Dat tune doe 😎
  20. I’m surprised you didn’t mention us Bobby. “I’d like to thank my internet friends for their support and help, and ensuring I never want to play R6 again by playing with me, allowing me to concentrate solely on the promotion and success of others”
  21. Pc? What pc? Did someone say pc?
  22. Honestly listening to this shit makes me want to get in a hamster wheel and go for a run. Sorry @Plumbers Crack 😂
