@Sennex That totally makes sense and it shouldn't be any one persons responsibility to pay the cost. I suppose the first questions have to be, for those with more experience of this, who is a good host? and how much is a server?

Haha I would have loved to see their faces if you actually sent them that email Though their sizing, if accurate, does seem to be on smaller size as I have had to go up 1 size to what I normally wear.

I obviously knew Lee got his Astros but I missed the whatsapp and this post so just assumed Lee bought them. Nice going everyone who did chip in for them.

My schedule is pretty hectic of the weekend as I'm away for my brothers wedding however, as we didn't actually play last night, I'm up for trying to organise it again.

It's the Pacific Standard job isn't it? Either way, yeah it was a laugh doing it and one we should try to get finished as it is a decent payout at the end. Just annoying that if, for any reason, you don't make it all the way on a bike it's a mission fail. I failed the last time as the car and parachute disappeared but it did occur to me after if I could have just driven the car down the mountain. Something to try next time.

The only question then; whats the wecomended amount dedotated wam I should have to server. On a serious note - on console you can visit other peoples worlds but they have to be online. I presume you can do the same on pc too but you're more talking about a 24/7 dedicated server? It would be good to have a 24/7 one though as it could be up for whoever whenever and either side of the pond.

Morning everyone, have a good day all

Of course, its only fun when you can talk to each other. You can join a game at any time so if you make it on just join in.

7pm GMT ok for everyone? Should give us plenty of time for CaH then some R6 after.

Who is around tonight for another round or 2 of this? We can then move on to some proper games.

One of the few trophies I'm missing so happy to give it a go later.

I enjoyed playing minecraft on console but did miss the more social side of it. If there's a few of us then I could get it on pc and a server could be fun.

I know we have some road cyclist on here but do we have any that like the muddy stuff? I got in to it a few years ago through my brother in law, honestly I'm still not that good at it and mostly stick to more cross country riding the downhill. Luckily for me there is a big park near which while there isn't any specific trails there is always some fun routes through the trees. If that doesn't take my fancy then Cannock chase is only 30 minutes away where I can be found riding the red trail. For those who don't do biking or don't know Cannock, this is the trail I usually ride (this isn't me in the video though). More cross country switch backs to begin with and spend most of the first half climbing with the second half being more flowing downhill. It is especially fun after the campsite which is around 44 minutes in to this video. And this is my bike Nothing too special but it does me, it's mostly original but full spec is; Kona Lanaii 2011 Hardtail Race face seat post (bent the original - whoops) Mavic Crossride wheels Specialized Purgatory tyres Specialized seat I really need up change my brakes and chainset too as they are original and showing signs of wear but no idea whats parts yet.

I'm not sure what you have watched but Netflix - the Marvel series, especially Daredevil, if you're in to those shows. The others are ok but DD is the best. On prime - Man in the High Castle is brilliant and Lucifer if you want something that's easier watching. As for films; Why him - Nope! Just don't even bother. Sully - I wasn't sure going in but well worth a watch. I didn't know about the stuff that went on after the crash but it was interesting to find out. Well directed and written and Tom Hanks plays the roll fantastically too.

@GazzaGarratt Oh yes! It is possible to create your own decks! I've added what has been suggested so far but open to more! If you want to check out what I have added so far: https://www.cardcastgame.com/ and search for 'Forever Gaming'

Yeah, I think 1 or 2 rounds of 5-8 points is a good amount then on to 'proper' games As for when, I'm up for playing some CaH before any gaming session.

Actually "Explaining bukkake to my mother" would be be a good card. No, not yet Lee. I'll do it when I get home tonight as hopefully once it's confirmed we can we can get more suggestions.

19 confirmed dead already some of the reports and injuries being posted on social media look terrible. Edit: It's being treated as a terrorist incident and a controlled explosion of a suspected second device points that way too.

@Stretch616 One for you. It's and oldie but a goodie.

That is how I took it from watching the feed and subsequent videos from people who were at the event. It is a shame that they have made it this way though. Bungie said the raids were for us to figure out until people did it in way which they didn't like. This just seems an extension of you can only play it Bungies way!

@crispymorgan Just for you

Not perfect but how about something like this for the end clip? Also finally a use for the spinning logo

Simply - MW2 minus One Man Army and quick scoping. Lane maps - all the boost jumping opened up the maps to many different ways to move around but going back to boots on the ground I would love to see the maps go back to the lane style maps. For me, getting shot in the back because of the 5 different places you can be seen from, is one of the most frustrating things. Remove quick scoping - CoD for a long time has had quick scoping and there has been a few false starts of removing it but no-one has been brave enough to remove and it keep it out. I understand the need for some aim assist but if you want to fire a sniper you should have to fully scope in. OHK nerf - Almost all snipers are OHK irrespective of where they hit you which needs removing in my opinion. Headshot and maybe torso hits should be OHK but no way should getting shot in the toe be a OHK. Recoil - they just need to add some! The guns should not be laser accurate and there should be some skill in controlling the recoil. Fix multiplayer latency issues - Up there with being shot in the back is being insta-killed. I think everyone has experience this at some point of walk round the corner and die before you can react yet the kill cam shows you walk round the corner, enemy aims, sprays around a bit and kills you. I don't think dedicated servers are the holy grail to fix all problems but it should improve things greatly. Even if they don't want to go that far then go back to MW2 style - yes the host had an advantage but everyone else was equal. I'd even accept tighter geographic limits - I used to play regularly with someone with a netduma so they could limit to only UK players and the difference was night and day. Good kill streaks - it seems of recent years the kill streaks have seen nerfs. Presumably to not have them so OP that it stops being 'fun' and everyone quits. However the higher kills streaks should be OP! If you have managed to get a 12, 15, 20 etc. player kill streak then you are dominating the other team anyway so OP killstreaks wont change much. The NUKE! - Nothing better than hitting that 25 player kill streak and calling in that nuke. Claymores - I miss them I also miss scavenger resupplying them too so you could plant many of them. That's all I can think of right now but I'm sure there are other things too.

Still miss the whatsapp mornings but morning you ugly lot! Here's to another manic Monday.

Am I the only person who generally doesn't notice the difference? A side by side comparison, switching from 60 to 30fps or even if I concentrate on it etc. then I can see the difference. However, once it actually comes to playing the game and my mind is more heavily focused on oh god! don't die! don't die! then I really don't notice. On the subect of fps, if due to the size of the level, draw distance, lighting and particle effects etc. they can't hit a constant 60fps I'd much rather have a fixed 30fps as vary frame rate is much more noticable. Not that Bungie managed that in D1 either but here's hoping.
