    Both Rust and Shipment are party maps for me. Like Lee's favourite saying: shits and giggles Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Gr 3 this week is Kyoto, while Gr 4 is Nurburgring gp track. I've set a half decent time on Kyoto and a crap one in Nurburgring so far. Feel the Kyoto time can easily be improved on, but the other will be a challenge, as the track is a little moist. Gran Turismo is still only 12.99 on PS Store [emoji106] Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    I'd only say to make a decision on what's best long term. If you're likely to move onto a faster cpu in the next couple of years you might want to look at the newer mobos. Older mobos may not be compatible with a lot of new hardware. If you're likely to stick to the i5 for a considerable amount of time then maybe you dont need to worry about that.

    1:26.9 after a few laps tonight. Which I was pleased with as I know theres more I can squeeze. Can do a low 1:26 maybe but I'm unlikely to get much lower than that before Monday. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    GTA needs better player UI. Better shooting/combat and better movement. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    DayZ in 2020

    phil bottle replied to phil bottle's topic in DayZ

    They stopped responding in the forums years ago. Back in the day they were always on but all the old team have gone, and the team that replaced that team have gone, just Bohemia staff instead of DayZ enthusiasts. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    I had a bit of Sardenga fatigue yesterday. Couldn't get within a second of my best times and I fucked up a bunch of races. With help of course. Then went on again around 11pm and set a new fast time. Ffs [emoji16] Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    DayZ in 2020

    phil bottle replied to phil bottle's topic in DayZ

    Yeah the sad thing is, we only wanted a standalone version so there was no need to run it off Arma 2, a standalone where they could fix the bugs, that's all. It was almost perfect, other than the zeds running through walls sometimes and leg breaks while climbing ladders. And desync [emoji41] The mod got me back into gaming, it was that special. I know so many people who would go back to it if it had the original features....and Bohemia have no idea what they have ruined. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    But seriously, good going @Diddums, the plumber would have been up shit creek otherwise. I know he's used to that but you have saved a lot of hassle. Had it been my PC that happened to, I would have been raging.

    DayZ in 2020

    phil bottle posted a topic in DayZ

    So yeah, Bohemia released their plans for DayZ in 2020. Fuck all basically, as they have reduced the amount of people working on it to a skeleton crew. No mention of bikes or helicopters. To say I'm not happy is an understatement. I don't go on the DayZ forums much these days but I've been on there this week and for the first time ever I expressed my doubt that they will ever be implemented and that they have essentially fucked up what could have been a great thing. Broken promises 👏 I'll be going back on later and expressing my opinion that DayZ players have been play-testing the engine for Arma 4 for free. Which is what has happened.

    Nice one, I need to get back to the dlc, i one lapped most of them to see what the pace is but only picked up silvers i think. My lap time is now 1:27.4 I think in Sardenga. I can do a 1:26 if I pull it together. I'm not using the fastest cars on this track, using the Lexus, which is a bit understeery but has good pace on the straights. In Sardenga the first corner and then the corner before the gradient are both lethal I've found. The first one, players with no right try to dive bomb into a non existent gap and the other, you get shunted from behind into the gravel. Though I must admit the joy when such players end up crashing out themselves has me laughing so much it's hard to control the car for the next half lap. I did one Gr 3 race at Panorama, carnage, never again [emoji846] Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Since that post I have improved my time to 1:27.9 Also did another race, started 4th and finished 2nd. Had some nice moments, was overtaken and then did some overtaking myself. All clean and space given, which is unusual when I'm involved. I did actually finish 3rd but 2nd place disappeared from the game just after crossing the line and so I got bumped up a place. I've decided to actually try and get out of D, which means I need to race online a few times every day consistently to get my points up. The road to C has begun. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Great comeback, sorry you couldn't do them, I did take a look to see if Rose was playing. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Sardegna daily race at Gr 4. 1:28.09 so far but I can do a 1:27 if I get all my sectors right. I've actually tried 4 races in it too. The first two I quit because of brutality, the third I went from 7th to 16th to 6th and dished out some payback without incurring penalty (one guy I bumped got a 1 second penalty, but he kind of braked really early so there you go). I also picked up 'fastest lap'. In the final race I started 2nd (I did a few more qualifying laps between races and improved my time) and although we swapped the lead a couple of times, I finished second.

    I agree, just hope the story isn't too convoluted, with too many different stories, cos that's what mostly killed the recent Netflix series for me. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    I'm a bit late but I finally got round to watching Fury. Strange film, some very unrealistic content, never mind the ending. Good performances by the cast, definitely, but I found the story, what there was of it, confused as to what it was trying to convey. The horrors of combat from inside a tank? The horror of war in general? What war can make a man do? A tale of innocence rudely shattered? The germans like running at bullets? Not a clue. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    Yeah I was just fucking around. If this had been good I would have tried it with you guys. 🥰

    They say there's no such thing as bad publicity, all publicity is good. Which means I've heard so much about it I now want to try it out. Not enough to buy it though [emoji28] Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

    I had a look online. Both games you mentioned have black screen issues for a lot of people. For some its solved by updating flash, others by changing resolution to 720p and then back to 1080p, for others it was adjusting their monitor from 59 to 60 ghz...but I dont think it's a problem with the card or other hardware if other games are running fine.

    I'm glad I'm not rich or gullible enough to get sucked into this shite. Shame on Google for the blatant disregard for customers. I hope a competitor beats them to it and does this kind of thing properly. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk
