  1. I'm starting to think that maybe survival games maybe just aren't your thing Lee On a positive / negative note, I filled quite a few jars with water from the river south of the city only to find we don't have a cooking pot yet so can't make clean water :( Still I found some more jars and make yuka juice. It was a good night though (even if I didn't finish the GTA video oopsie! ) and it was good to meet you Shucker. I think I need to see if I can find my old copy of Battlefield to get a little practice in using a mouse for FPS again before trying more PC games.
  2. Three billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri. I missed it at the cinema when it was out but managed to catch it last night. It was quite what I expected as the trailer almost makes it out to be a black or dark comedy. It isn't, it is quite a serious movie with most, if not all, the funny bits being in the trailer however that doesn't detract from what is a very good film. It really does make you question what would you do and how far would you go if something like that happened to your child as well as managing to fit redemption stories in for other characters too.
  3. A little late but nice Rich It is a shame more OW games don't go like that but I suppose we wouldn't want to make it too easy for ourselves
  4. @GazzaGarratt It is on Amazon Prime TV Though other sources are available
  5. Strange that they terminated the server but glad it is back. I did enjoy the other night, starting fresh is always more of a survival task than when there is a proper base everything set up. Roll on alpha 17 for all the updates too.
  6. I’m up for this though I don’t own too many PC games. Depending on the game though I could buy or if not I’ll join the chat and I can do other PC stuff like FG videos.
  7. I think I need a little more practice with it as I misjudge some corners so much but I’m in.

    New World!

    I've finally pulled my finger out on this and 99.9% finished it. There is still a few little bits to clear up and test before I open it up to everyone but I'm trying to get it done this week
  9. I'll never turn down Full Homo love.....wait that sounds wrong I'm glad it worked better than previously though
  10. Holy thread resurrection batman! I’d missed season 3 of this started this week so I know what I’ll be watching tonight. I’m surprised there aren’t more posts in this as I thought a few people here would enjoy it.
  11. Between the extra RAM and patcg hopefully it runs smooth for you now. I wish people would hurry up with Ryzen 2 reviews as it is getting hard to ignore my upgrade itch.
  12. I was an xbox gamer last gen so have no experience with the PS3 but I would guess that a capture card is going to be the only way.

    F1 2018

    It was a great ending to the race, though while I appreciate the front is what people focus on I do wish they would focus on the midfield more as you see changes in position on the position graphic but you don't ever see the overtake live or a replay. It seems Red Bull have continued where they have been the last few years, close enough to the front to capitalise when something like a SC happens but not quite fast enough in pure pace.
  14. Nice to see that they are continuing to patch and update this. It is one reason I'm eager to get my new pc built is to try this out.
  15. I don’t know how much it costs to run these forums but that is a good idea and I’d be happy for some/all donations to go towards running this place.
  16. Interesting that you bring this topic up today of all days... I am 100% behind this though, it is fantastic way to feel good in FG. Unfortunately, as much I would love to, I don't think I can commit to a fixed amount every month but I will try to remember to donate at the end of the month if/when I can With respect to your list, in order 1) I never thought of it before as I just clicked the donate button. It has been a while since I've done so things may have changed but if you send it as a gift / to a friend or whatever it is called then there are no fees on it either end I don't think you can set it up to do it every month though. 2) & 3) I think these are a good point and maybe the most important ones. No-one should feel obligated to give more than they want or to every gift / collection. 4) I agree, you are the Commander in Chief of FG and as such should have final say.
  17. Name: Friday Night is Race Night Category: GTA V Date Added: 2018-04-12 Submitter: Greboth Highlights from Friday nights race night. It doesn't include all the races but the best bits from a few. Friday Night is Race Night
  18. It's done, I was waiting to see if I got more clips but as we may be racing again tomorrow night I'll get it uploaded and posted tonight
  19. Can you remember which speed you went for? or did you just buy the one the link takes you to? I'm trying not to compromise too much on the build but equally I don't have an unlimited budget so there has to be some. I think based on things like Star Citizen and that video editing and the 3d stuff all are better with more RAM that it is best to go 16Gb straight off. Speed is the other potential for a little compromise, 3200Mhz seems to the sweet spot of price where it isn't much more expensive than the lower speed but then you start facing bigger price jumps to get up to the higher clocks. Still 16Gb of 2400Mhz is still £30-£40 cheaper than 3000Mhz which isn't too be sniffed at. Either way it is going to be faster than my 1600Mhz DDR3 that I have currently, I think I need to look in to quite how much different RAM speed makes.
  20. That probably covers it, we hold a lot of personal information about a lot of people but in essence have just deleted a lot of data and rather than write or email everyone just put it on our website which we now direct people too if they want to read it.
  21. It is much more a horde game mode than the uprising which was more an objective/payload match. I don’t think it is anything bad though as it gives some variation as PvP is all about objectives and payloads. Playing last night for a couple of hours and it is a lot of fun. I really like the way it is done with moving along then the horde at the end though the difficulty steps up so much at the horde. I like the new ‘characters’ too, the sniper seems quite similar to widow but the Reinhardt/Bastion love child and Tracer/Genji assassins are something different. Though I do think the assassins do a little too much damage or have a little too much health. We tried both the story and any hero modes and managed to get it completed on legendary. We tried the hardest difficulty (expert?) and that is difficult. I do think with some more practice and a better idea of which characters to use the hardest any hero is possible.
  22. You spelt whinging as winning I'll be on but I won't make it until closer to 9pm.
  23. @GazzaGarratt Lee, after chatting to you last night about PC's it got me thinking about RAM. I was planning on going for 2 sticks but never hurts to keep my options open. Looking in your PC thread, this is the RAM Phil linked you to; https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B01DPSQOO4/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1515181570&sr=8-4&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=crucial+ballistix+sport+8gb&dpPl=1&dpID=41dqpRoIRaL&ref=plSrch Is this the stick you bought? Did you get the 2400Mhz or 2666Mhz? With the exception of Star Citizen how are you finding 8Gb for everything else? Of course I can't also ignore the most important question did you go for grey, red or white? white or grey look best but everyone knows red stuff goes faster
  24. Too late I know but they don’t really show any signs of dropping so I bit the bullet. Plus the cheapest I could find recorded of standard 1070 being is around £330-£340 so doesn’t seem too bad of a price of a better cooler and clocked card
  25. My GPU is the 1050Ti so it has 4Gb VRAM instead of the 2Gb on the standard 1050 which I think does give me some leeway. I'd probably guess overall though our systems aren't too dissimilar in terms of performace. I think you're right though about a new system though, it isn't necessarily needed right now but there is little point spending money now to upgrade my current PC then spend money in a year or whenever buying a new PC. WIth Ryzen2 (or Ryzen+ or whatever they call it) coming out soon I think I might wait and see what that brings before going for a CPU Motherboard combo. If the price/performance is decent over an OG Ryzen then I might as well but if not, hopefully it leads to a drop in OG Ryzen prices. Either way I went would mean a new PSU so I've picked up an 850W PSU ready and verbally agreed to buy an EVGA GTX1070 SC 8Gb ACX3 card. it is second hand GPU but with GPU prices as they are its almost a £500 card and the guy agreed at £330 so hard to say no to that! No way will a card that size fit in my current case without taking a HDD out but I'm tempted to do it just to see how fast it runs
