    My dream is to one day be able to add Fallout 4 to this thread. Over 100 hours in and the horizon is as distant as ever.

    I started Horizon and got quite far but could never shake the feeling it should be played with a mouse and keyboard. If you ever see it cheap, let me know! Great idea for a thread by the way as I think most ppl usually put these in PPRs. Surprised no-one thought of this before😁

    Inspiration on how not to treat your body after you finish a career in sport🙃 Razor used to turn down Cantona's collar every time he played Utd. I love that kind of thing. He also played for Spurs, as well as Liverpool, Millwall and that shit down Stratford. He's a great character and that's a great message for FG gaymers, nice one Jordie👍

    Luke being a badass Jedi, fucking everyone up, is all they ever needed to do. That's how the films should've been. Even I got the feels.

    We'll go with Choice 2. The rally stages need a lot of practice, maybe we can do one further down the line.

    I heard Warzone is borked with a pretty nasty exploit. If I have time I'll check but will see.

    Ok, so here's the choice. As we said last week it might be nice to do a rally we can do that possibly, but if not popular of people don't have rally cars there's a Gr.3 instead. Choice 1 Colorado Springs Rally Gr.B or X Choice 2 Circuit de Sainte Croix - C Gr.3 Let's try and decide today so we can practice in advance. Once decided I'll set the laps, tyres etc.

    I'll keep my eyes open for any news on this, could be huge 🙂

    @GazzaGarrattproduced some very fast qualifying laps for Willow Springs but was unable to transfer that into a 13 lap race. @Grebothran away with it and I managed a second place despite a couple of wobbles. At Fuji it was @JBR-Kiwi from the start with @Grebothmaking some uncharacteristic errors and @GazzaGarrattmaking some characteristic errors. @Mikepjbell took advantage of slipstream down the long straight and left me trailing. Special mention to @Misneach_ getting better every race and giving Lee a run for his money at Willow 🙂 Great racing.🥰 I will suggest a track for next week shortly and if anyone has any preferences I'm happy to change to whatever. For the second race, we will find out next week's GT daily races on Saturday or Sunday.

    To be honest, I've played around 20 hours and I've only done the first main mission with Jackie. Since then all I've done is side missions and explore the city. I might wait for bugs to be fixed before I progress the main story, will see. I've not suffered any issues or crashes myself, and I've been having a blast. I think it's a really good game, though not as much of an RPG as I'd hoped. But then I found Fallout 76 to be okay, so what do I know😁

    GOG are going down the shitter of my estimations. I thought they were supposed to be one of the better companies but I hear today they're not releasing a game because of a joke about the Chinese government. Cowards.

    That's cool, we prefer text over links in general 🙂 Cheers for that, hadn't seen it but I'll check it today👍

    That's a great write up and totally agree with the last bit too. Also, I'm on 1440p with 59-64 fps on a mix of high and ultra. It looks great but hoping optimizations allow for higher frames in future.

    What happens when you let short term profit override your common sense. Personally I don't care about CDPR or how they're remembered, I don't care about corporations, I despise them. What I do care about is the people who made the game and the people who spent their hard earned money buying a dud. There's no excuse for any of it. The guys who spent years and years of hard graft and non stop crunch making it must be fucking destroyed by all of this. These people have no say over when the game is released and their work is being trashed because it was not released when it was ready. If Rockstar can do RDR2 on base consoles and make it look beautiful, then this could have been achieved for CPunk, they could have simply delayed the release. As an artist I would want my art to be presented in the best possible way...and they have been let down by their bosses. At the same time it astounds me that the workers haven't the nous to collectively organise and do something about it themselves. As for the early access thing, take a look at Star Citizen🙂

    Doesn't look like anyone can make tonight, judging by the calendar. If it's just two people we can rearrange, as I was having to juggle a few things to make it myself this week (covid tier 3 in london from tomorrow).

    Left 4 Dead 3 essentially, just a different name. Looks very good. It'll be all about the shooting mechanics for me. With this and that WH40k game, Dark Tides, due out too, 2021 will be a good year for coop shooters.

    The financial need to release an unready product is a fact of life for a while now. Nothing new here. Fallout New Vegas, a classic game, buggy as fuck on release. Skyrim, classic game, buggy as fuck on release, one of which almost ruined the game for me. Battlefield 4. I saw more of what was under the map than on the map the first month I played it. It's nothing new. And the guys doing the work, well we hear about working practices in the industry. Nothing changes other than the weaker games like Mass Effect Andromeda sinking from trace....only for the whole series to be rebooted a few years later when the dust has settled. Random thoughts ^

    In recent Tuesdays I've wondered why I'm driving seconds slower on tracks I'm normally fast on. Today I tried the Gr.2 race and couldn't work out why I was so slow. I watched a video replay of one of the top ten fast times and noticed the guy accelerating between gears much faster than me and reaching 6th gear by the end if the long straight. I can't get into sixth. Seems R2 on my controller has been fucked and I didn't realise. Tried another controller I don't use much, as it drifts when not plugged in (bluetooth issue with certain controllers), so much better. I had just assumed it was me being too careful. Anyway, no more controllers just the wheel from now on.
