  1. We now have a 24/7 server up and running for FGers. Look for ForeverGaming - Valheim in server list. PM either me, @tronic44, or @GazzaGarrattand we can provide the password. ๐Ÿ™‚
  2. Spent 2 hours watching Greenland yesterday to save everyone else having to suffer. Had some good elements, the meteors raining down was done very well. A lot of it, particularly the end, didn't make sense in terms of what happens to the planet. As for the rest, possibly the most predictable disaster movie I have ever seen but there's a good fight scene with a hammer that at least made me laugh๐Ÿ™‚
  3. Apparently we can make our own dedicated server without having to pay for a host. I've seen some instructions online on how to set it up. Would anyone be interested that?
  4. First base was made with the help of @GazzaGarrattbut then didn't play for a few days. Played a bit yesterday. Logged in alone and went deer hunting, but wandered a little too far, something I realised when I giant troll materialised from behind a ridge. One hit and I was down to 3 health but I managed to fall down a ravine and he forgot about me. Lucky. @Plumbers Crack logged in for an hour or so and we gathered resources together without mishap. When I went back on later i was joined by @tronic44for a couple of hours. We made a second base by the shoreline and had our first raft on the sea. Very difficult to navigate. Can't wait till we can build something better. Have leather clothes now and fire arrows, but will do more prep before taking on the first boss.
  5. Quick update. There's 2 Monza layouts, we're doing the 2nd one without the chicane. Also, we have Blue Moon inner track now for Race 3.

  9. Next week's dailies should be announced at some point today. In the meantime let me know if there are any requests. Might make the 3rd race a one lap in a N100 around the Nordschleife or another wet race but this time at Red Bull but happy to accommodate requests. @LordBaguette was asking last week about race choices, we generally base them on that week's Gran Turismo dailies unless they're a bit shite. Aiming to have a calendar up this evening.
  10. The first time I noticed @J4MES OX4D doing screenshots from games on here was Dying Light. Did some epic shots from that game. If they're still on here well worth checking out๐Ÿ‘
  11. That's pretty creepy alright๐Ÿ˜…
  12. I had MySpace back in the day but never bothered with FBook, glad I avoided it judging by what I hear. Meanwhile in Spain a hip hop artist is being sent to jail for lyrics about the Spanish monarchy. How's that for cancel culture, old school ๐Ÿ˜
  13. Only played about 4 hours so far, with @GazzaGarrattand @tronic44. I'm looking forward to what the game has in store for us. Can't believe it's only 1gb and yet so good๐Ÿ™‚
  14. I agree, in so much as there is an authoritarian tendency in a lot of people, that I find disturbing and should always be confronted. There's also plenty of folk on the likes of Twitter that seem to exist just to either act superior or outraged to another set of people. I just don't engage with it.
  15. Very well put, I often find people confusing freedom of speech with freedom from consequences. Quite the lively debate today๐Ÿ™‚
  16. In a country where so many people refuse to wear face masks, not sure why you want to laugh at that but fair enough. But that wasn't the point, as you well know, just an example of what I understand people have been complaining about. I think jumping on outrage bandwagons about cancel culture is possibly another side of the same coin. I've never heard of any of these people, Pedro who? Leave me out of all that bollocks lol. Still, my my mate who can't get employed as a chippy because of past union activities can go spin, not glamorous enough I suppose.
  17. She's said a lot of things over the last year or two that have riled people up, including laughing at the use of face masks. She's had people complaining about her for all sorts of things.... but didn't get 'cancelled' until she compared her situation to the holocaust. I think think the cancel culture thing is a bit reactionary and blown out of proportion personally. Black balling in various industries is endemic and has been for a long time and I never see anything about that. Just these emotive social media wars letting people fight among themselves as usual.
  18. That's four minutes of my life I won't get back. Didn't really explain anything except bang on about a cult. I suppose Disney are probably uber sensitive since they were founded by a fascist sympathiser๐Ÿ˜†
  19. Well then, as a welcome to the newer PC players, here's a list of games for which I have Steam keys. If any of them take your fancy, let me know and I'll PM the key. VALKYRIA CHRONICLES 4 COMPLETE EDITION TRINE 4: THE NIGHTMARE PRINCE ANCESTORS: THE HUMANKIND ODYSSEY OVERCOOKED! 2 + TOO MANY COOKS GENERATION ZERO TROPICO 6 SUNLESS SKIES + SUNLESS SEA
  20. @FallenDark200 On a serious note, nice thread, and I always welcome a new PC player over to the light๐Ÿ™‚ I'll friend you on Steam after work. Just started playing Valheim on Sunday and plan to get back on with @GazzaGarratt and @tronic44 when we're all free. It's a great game.
  21. @GazzaGarratt this geezer is being too friendly, think I'm going to have to ban him from FG๐Ÿค”
  22. Ha ha snap. Have it from Ubistore but never installed andshould really try and give it a go. The same with AC: Origins๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ˜…
  23. A great evening of racing in my opinion, though the experience will never be the same for some now counter steering assists have been prohibited ๐Ÿ˜… Thought @techno did great on his first races. Love Willow Springs and was doing well personally until the tyres started to wear out. Tits up after that, for me anyway ๐Ÿ˜ The reverse grid in race 2 was sort of a good idea. I and @Lurch got some hostile attention at turn 1 and I never recovered. But it made @Grebothpull his socks up, going from last to a very deserved second, beaten by birthday boy @JBR-Kiwi The wet race was actually a nice change and glad we tried it. I'm up for another one. Most had a decent night I think, @LordBaguette showing he has some race pace, @slamminbones again in the wrong tyres ๐Ÿ˜… @tronic44with one eye on the Man U game๐Ÿ˜† As for @GazzaGarrattand his driving wheel, well that deserves it's own thread๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜… @Shucker showing some speed and a possible future front runner? @Mikepjbell showing me his usual loving attention, did very well in race 2 despite the assist change, very impressive ๐Ÿ‘ @Misneach_ where the fuck were you? 12 or 13 in total racing last night, reckon we will have 16 when everyone is able to get on๐Ÿ™‚ GG guys
  24. I believe @uberwarrior may also have his special day today, have a good one sir๐Ÿ™‚
  25. Not practised at all this week, so RIP me tonight. Willow Springs should be okay but the other track not all, not at all๐Ÿ˜ข
