I assume this is Dragon Trail seaside?

Without saying too much in case you do watch Rebels, it isn't currently known what happened to Ezra after Rebels. So it's possible he won't be in one of the shows or even mentioned. The whole reason people have been saying about Sebastian Stan to play young Luke is because they look so alike! The voice will be different but I don't think that would be such a huge thing.

I’m glad you took all our comments under advisement 😆 I’m not a huge fan of the rallying in gt sport so I’m happy we’re doing the circuit. Though if people want to do the rallying then i’ll be there.

Well that wasn’t what I expected though thoroughly enjoyed it. I would expect that the series will continue with the reclamation of Mandalor consider he is now the ruler of it. Yeah that scene from Rebels came to mind for me too. I can’t remember the exact details but Sabine doesn’t take the Dark Saber in battle either as she finds it in Darth Mauls stuff. You could say Bo Katan should have fought Sabine for it but really the Rebels scene is more just the returning of the Saber to a mandalorian that could reunite the clans and rule Mandalor. Though this could also be taken further that Bo Katan obviously lost the Saber at some point so has to win it back rather than be given it. It’s not ‘clean’ but I don’t think it’s the plot hole some people seem to be making it out to be. Also, yes Sebastian Stan should play young Luke. They wouldn’t need any CGI then. While it was cool seeing Luke back, I was hoping it was going to Ezra. With the human hand I thought it might be but as soon as you saw the gloved hand it was obviously Luke. Edit: Not to mention the x wing being a bit of a clue too.

I imagine it would, I'll let you know when it happens #fixed

The bits that I can’t work out is 1) how did nvidia ever think it wouldn’t get out and wouldn’t cause a massive backlash which leads on to 2) why didn’t they come up with almost any other reason as they could have chosen a number that would have left Hardware Unboxed without cards but without the fuss.

It certainly is a method that I'm happy to support especially as it seems helpful for smaller developers to make games as it's in essence crowd funding. The issue is that it can't work for all games; something like 7dtd works as it's a survival game and while they can add more stuff (either as new mechanics or actual things like vehicles) it will remain a survival game. How does that work for a story driven game though? The only real way to do it for a single player story driven game is similar to Destiny and release content periodically that continues the story. Though that then runs in to the problem that, for a game like CP2077, how to put in enough content to span the months between releases. Comparing to Destiny, even that struggles but has a lot more (raids, pvp, special events etc.) that do help give 'content' over a longer period of time. This whole situation reminds me of No Mans Sky and Hello Games. Sure the game launched badly but Hello Games sorted it out and from what I've seen so far, it looks like CDPR are so far doing the right thing and I hope they continue to do so. The first impression is the most important sadly, NMS is still remembered more for it's botched launch than the game it's become and I think CP2077 will be remembered similarly.

So first horde night done and well it was ...... interesting. We spent on the roof of another building to not risk what we’ve gathered so far. Someone (Crispy or Rich) joked about the town we’re in being decimated as we spend each horde night on a different building. Turns out they were right, right at the end of horde night the building collapsed! As it turns out, horde night is harder because the modded zombies (the ones on the menu screen) come out but zombies also regain health on horde night! It’s a hard one, we obviously need a proper base to have a chance of surviving horde night but ifs going to be a while until we can think about building a base.

Whoops! Forgot to rsvp to the event but happy to rearrange if no one else can make it.

Have you been driving 100 miles a day? 😆 It's a driving marathon (26.2 miles) to get a free car a day. Though other way to get free cars; Driving school - each row of 8 will give you a free car if you get gold in all 8 Circuit experience - get gold on each section and full track and you'll get a free car. (also a pretty good way to earn credits) Mileage exchange - not technically 'free' as you buy them with mileage points but there's very little to use mileage points on except cosmetic stuff (paint, wheels, driver poses etc.) so they tend to build up over time. As the miles per day counts in anything, driving 26.2 miles while doing circuit experiences can net you multiple free cars a day.

Makes sense though my only concern would be if everyone has a gr2 car. As there’s only (I think) 2 or 3 is unlikely people have had them as gifts cars so will need to buy them.

There's elements that are harder; for example clearing out the building we're on top of had 3 irradiated zombies in which is crazy for day 2. Though on the hand, things like food seems a easier with the amount of oranges, tomatos, carrots etc you can find in the world. Though food is an issue currently but it always seems to be at the start of 7dtd so I'd agree on balance the easier and harder evens out so far. Though I can see it potentially being more resource intensive to get things but we shall see. For reference, I chose scavenger and security to begin with. @tronic44 If you went hunter, does that give you more meat like in vanilla? I'm wondering if it would be best then for you to have the rifle so you can more easily take down bigger animals.

There's instructions on how to install the mod on their wiki: Installing The Mod | Wiki.js WIKI.DARKNESSFALLSMOD.COM A Guide on How to Install the Darkness Falls Mod Currently in the process of following it so will update if it works. Edit: Yup seems to work 🙂

I'm happy with going PvP .... but I think I'm busy that day.

It depends, if we race the weekly races they're only announced Monday so doesn't leave much time to do it but whenever there's time then that's the plan.

I’m not sure about WandaVision but it looks a more interesting idea than the Falcon and Winter Soldier which just looks quite generic action. Loki does look good too and if they write his character as good as the films it should be too.

Congratulations to all! Every single one well deserved and great to see @GazzaGarratthonouring the right people though you deserve plenty of credit yourself. On a personal level, @phil bottle I can’t think of anyone better to pass the torch of fg’er of the year to...well maybe not a Londoner but I don’t hold that against you too much.

Haha sneaky just don’t do my tactic then and use it so everyone knows what car 🤣 Though my 1:13 lap was done on hards 😉 Interesting to know though about fuel though, some more testing is obviously required. It’s that question again of can you make up the pit stop time using 2 sets of super softs against 1 set of hards.

This track isn't as technical as Mount Panorama / Bathurst but thought I'd do this guide to help @Misneach_ get up to speed and anyone else too. This guide does need a prefix though that I only tried the GR Supra and the 911; both I got pretty equal times but there may be a better car for this track. Definitely some time on the table, I got a 1:13 flat so 1:12's are definitely possible. For reference too I did this on a controller, manual gears and TC set to 0 and racing hards tyres. There's more speed to be had in the last corner but the more you push the more you risk touching the dirt on the outside and disappear off across those them desert hills there so this is my 'safe' approach sacrificing a bit of speed but with reasonable certainty I'll keep it on track. Edit: whoops, just watched it back and I cut off the full speed lap off a little early. The lap was a 1:13.045.

A couple of good races last night and good to see Matty @Misneach_ on for the first time. Race 1 - Gr4 at Mount Panorama (or Bathurst for everyone else). As ever with Gr4 races, the Peugeot RCZ and Audi TT dominate the top of the leaderboard and also as ever I try to avoid them. I'd pretty much settled on using the Lexus RCF though tried the BMW M4 to see how it handled to give Matty some pointers. During practice, Lee raised about the gap and how much was down to using a wheel and auto gears so cue me picking up my controller and giving it ago. Not much of a surprise that I was slower but not massively (about 1.2 seconds) though I think I did 5 laps with a controller and auto gears so I think I could have cut that down a little more but it was an interesting experiment. Still on to qualifying, it's Bathurst so never simple but I managed to get it on pole relatively easily by 0.8 seconds IIRC but as ever with Bathurst, my optimal was considerably quicker than my actual lap. On to the race, Kiwi got the jump on me at the start and I dropped back a little too much on lap 1 to try for a pass but lap 2 was better and caught Kiwi heading up the chase. I tried for the pass but Kiwi defended which left me taking the outside which I couldn't hold. I tried to keep it close with the aim of trying a pass in to turn 2 and took a bit of a dive which ended up costing me time which I couldn't make up enough over the mountain to have a change going in to the chase. Results: Race 2 - Gr3 at Laguna Seca. This was an interesting one, the top times were a mix of cars mostly the Renault RS01 but with some Alfa 4C's, Honda NSX and Dodge Viper. Though Phil gave away some insider knowledge that online people had been using the Porsche 911. I tried the RS01 and while quick in it the car is a handful and any small mistake seemed to end in a spin. Still I endured through practice with it but decided to give the 911 a try which on my outlap I didn't think would be much good as it's got such long gearing but first lap out I set a faster lap and it's much easier to drive to I stick with it. On to qualifying and this was a lot tighter - I set a reasonable first lap to get pole, I set a faster second lap and then every lap after I was quicker but kept making mistakes trying to push. Kiwi mind was setting faster and faster times and I actually thought he stole pole though has actually missed it by a few hundredths of a second. On the last lap of quali I managed to complete a faster lap so took pole by only a couple tenths. Similar to Bathurst, Kiwi in the Viper got the jump on me at the start and again got a small lead by the end of lap 1. I wasn't too concerned though as being a 13 lap race with tyre wear there was going to be plenty of time to make up the time. Over lap 2 and 3 I caught up Kiwi and had a look or 2 at passing him but was happy to follow. Around lap 3 or 4, it was obvious Kiwi was struggling with his tyres and while mine were wearing I thought I could get to the end. At this point it became a strategy call and I decide to do my best to look after my right front and to follow Kiwi knowing that he was going to pit or be easy to pass towards the end of the race. As it turned out, Kiwi pitted end of lap 7 and I carried on lapping with the gap then being about 14 seconds for Kiwi to make up. Thankfully the Porsche is kind on its tyres and Kiwi wasn't making up that much time on me, I think he got it down to around 12 second but the Viper was not kind on its tyres meaning I could extend my lead in the last couple of laps and cross the line with 13 seconds in hand. The funniest, at least from my perspective, for this race was Lee. Lee decided to stick to the RS01 and ended up spending most of the race raging at the handling of it 😆 Results @phil bottle When you say Willow Springs, I assume it's Willow Springs international? It seemed to help Matty and I know Mike was watching too so think I'll make a track guide

There’s a patent for it sure but I’d find it odd if that’s the route they go down. SLI and Crossfire has become a thing of the past in PC land*. There’s always been issues with multi gpu setups but I suppose with fixed hardware it could be easier to sort out. * With the exception of productivity type things (rendering, video encoding etc.)

Yeah good luck with that 🤣 Willow springs in gr4 is great fun but can’t remember having done it in gr3. Still a track I know well so I’m happy 😄 I’ll post the results and my thoughts on last night later today.

Thanks for the kind words 😊 It was a lot of work but I think worth it. Now time to work on the next one 😄

Nice one Dave! I only wish I could have such a clean set up. As for the 2 monitors, see how you get on but having 2 is useful at times so I'd say keep them.

Another one of my models completed And of course it would be rude not to widen it a little Showing off the carbon and details And a shot of dat ass
