I guess this could be in health and fitness also. I have always wanted to try out martial arts, and I have finally just gone for it, joined the local school and started Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Been building my strength back in the gym for the last few months in preparation. Had a few sessions so far and I am enjoying it a lot, its basically fighting chess. The sessions consist of learning various take downs and submissions, with sparring at the end. The sparring is a killer but its fun to test your strength and brains at the same time. Obviously I am not that great yet but hoping to get a notch on the belt before the year is out.
I am wondering if anyone else in FG has done Jiu Jitzu or any other martial art? The only thing I have done thats anywhere close was boxing for a year and a half.

At the recent Overwatch League weekend, they released 2 big reworks for existing Heroes.
Bastion's Rework
⏩ Move while in sentry form 💣 New ultimate: Artillery Strike 💥 New ability: Tactical Grenade 🧢 Cap-tivating new look
Sombra's Rework
👀 Reveal hacked targets through walls 👩💻 Hack no longer removes stealth ⌛ Hack cooldown reduced 💥 Deal more damage to hacked targets
I can good Sombra players being really annoying now as they hack you at every opportunity😅 Good to see a few reworks. Bastion without a heal is likely to make some difference I think if the team hasn't got a good Mercy. I'd expect more reworks for existing heroes if we're still about 6 months out from seeing the game.
Any OW players thinking these are decent changes? @LordBaguette @Stretch616 ?
Kinda hard to look at any of their stuff at the moment and like the look of it, considering what is doing on at the company. I feel a lot of employees will be very jaded and not doing as good works as they could

It will definitely go to free to play. But so much of it will then be monetised, and they probably focus even more than they already do on just ultimate team. I am just hoping that when it comes to clubs, the stuff you need to pay for is cosmetic only (hair, boots etc). That wouldnt bother me too much, unless it goes into the realm of buying perks and things, which is a high possibility

I'm going to stay positive that this might indicate some small changes to their business model as I do think a yearly release is getting tiresome due to the lack of huge changes between each yearly game.

Yea probably about right, I platted it in around that time maybe more like 60. I did new game plus as well on lethal which added a chunk

I really need to get this game, i've heard so many really positive things about it. How long roughly did it take to complete?
Not sure but single player base game I'd guess around 15 hours

Mate, its actually fantastic if you can find a few people to play with...although it matchmakes anyway so they'll be people you can play it with. Really good missions with strategy and stuff to do to get through each one. Tom @LordBaguette would vouch it for it more as I think he maxxed out all his playable characters he loved it that much 🤣
I have basically mastered it at this point, played it to death. The new rivals stuff is good, probably some of the best stuff theyve done. Considering its all free as well is crazy.

Haha this doesnt surprise me at all. There are still rumours of fifa 23 going down the free to play route though, probably going to follow warzones model as they make a shit ton on microtransactions.. the gaming industry is just fantastic isnt it

I thought they were both primarily developed by Eidos Montreal under the direction of Square Enix?
Square Enix is the publisher. Avengers is made by Crystal Dynamics, and Guardians by Eidos

It certainly looks better than expected but I hope it's not another Marvel Avengers dogshit live service framework. I haven't really followed this game but if it's anything like the last then it'll probably turn into another post-launch catastrophe.
Its a different company and single player only, so unlikely

When the first trailer came out, I thought it looked pretty generic / boring. After watching this video though, I am surprised by how good this game actually looks, and I think everyone else it by the sounds of it. Looks like it may be a surprise hit

Oh god. Hardness levels also confirmed.
Does anyone know if they've asked Laurence Fishbourne back at all??
He died in the expanded material (which at this point is all still canon) well kind of died, it’s complicated
-
also remember when neo and trinity both died and they capped off the trilogy well and didn’t need to make a pointless sequel? Those were the days

I’m hard. That is all.
I mean it looks decent enough, but just looks like a rehash of the first Matrix, just like the force awakens was just a new hope again. Also only of the directors is back (it was both wachowski brothers last time), which could mean a drop in quality. Both brothers are now women as they have had sex changes and has been stated it will have a lot of trans / LGBT themes happening, which I hope is handled tastefully and not shoved in your face

Whats Rivals mate? Different to the co-op experience they added too?
Kind of, its a 2v2 mode where you kill waves of enemies but competing against another team

I have finished it already (platted), I really enjoy the gameplay loop, and also pretty much mastered the online. I'd say if you don't love the main game I wouldn't bother with the DLC, but if you do love it its definitely worth it. They are adding new content to the online soon as well for free called Rivals.

It’s great to see the multiverse coming to the MCU and though the trailer raises a few questions it hasn’t grabbed me and made me want to watch it. Though I still will as I’ve enjoyed Holland’s Spiderman.
My biggest concern is it’s going to be similar to Maguire‘s spiderman 3. Being that it will focus on his relationships and there will be too many bad guys to properly focus on any of them.
I agree, although the MCU has balanced many characters a few times well so I am hopeful they will do it again (albeit these were different directors). We always have big Kevin Feige to make sure it all works

It's finally here! Personally I think its a decent enough trailer, not showing a huge amount, most seems to be from the first 30 minutes or so. I have seen some people saying Strange is acting out of character, although I think we are missing lots of context to the scenes. I am just hoping with the inclusion of Electro, Green Goblin and Doc Oc, that it doesn't get too bloated like the original Sam Raimi Spiderman 3 did, bearing in mind there are several other characters left to be introduced we haven't seen also (I won't spoil for those who don't know the rumours / theories). Does look like good fun though a great Christmas present, let's hope it doesn't get delayed.
What do we think

They posted a teaser already a few months back. I have no idea what the story is, never read the book. Wondering if anyone here has? Anyway the trailer really does look good, I hope it delivers

yea my thighs are currently absolutely fucked, I cant stand up without screaming. Just need to get through the initial pains then you're fine after. I mean I used to do circuit training and body pump and all that but this is the worst my muscles have felt after a workout.
My goal is to get to blue belt, which is the next colour belt (around a year an half average)
