It certainly does not go back to it's roots in terms of gameplay and such though the game does keep to the lore quite well.

I loved playing the original and can't wait for this!! I lost count of how many times I jumped out of my skin playing this, was one of the most tense gaming experiences I've ever had! Hopefully this will stay true to the atmosphere and gameplay of the original 🤞

Hell fucking yeah, at last we are getting a sequel to it, the first one was a masterpiece even if it was a bit longer than it should, it's the only game that I have finished on highest difficulty and it was BRUTAL, the hospital level when the difficulty spikes for the first time was insane, I was sweating and trembling the whole time

So, just wondering if there would be any interest in seeing if we can come up collectively with an FG top 10 must play games list?
 
Currently thinking the format along the lines of everyone puts a list down of say 5 games each, we then all have to put them into priority and then each position get's a set number of points i.e. if I put the Witcher 3 top, then Fifa (heaven forbid) second then Witcher 3 would say get 10 points and then Fifa 9 and so on and so on.
 
Would that interest people or am I shouting into the wind? 😄
 
I would then look at doing a short write up for each game in the top 10 so if anyone has comments to say about any of their nominations, memories and such put them in the post and I could look to use them in the write ups.

It was a horrifying experience! I would literally spend 10 minutes hiding in a locker just waiting for the right time to leave. The alien AI was so good and unpredictable that you had to be on your toes at all times and even the slightest of sounds could get you into trouble. 

Confirmed to be in development 10 years on from the original

A good watch after IGN's infamously terrible 5.9/10 review

Concord taken offline after two weeks with refunds to be issued.
Concord: Sony pulls shooter from sale two weeks after release - BBC News
WWW.BBC.CO.UK Concord reportedly spent eight years being made but it is being taken offline soon after launch.
Probably the biggest failure in gaming history and a very expensive one too with it costing an estimated 9-figures and taking 8 years to produce. Absolute catastrophe for Sony and you have to wonder how the game made it this far. LawBreakers was a warning back in 2015 and with many massively established games pre-pandemic being F2P, a £40 hero shooter in 2024 in a over-saturated genre was never going to have any widespread appeal especially with barely any marketing and very unappealing design. They were never going to drag people away from the likes of COD, Overwatch, Valorant, Apex and even Destiny 2 especially with such a steep entry fee.
 
They made no attempt to liaise with the community until a month before release which was fatal and anyone with a functioning brain could’ve told them in 2019 that this would be a bad idea and to give it up. Feel a bit sorry for the devs but they’ve really failed to assess the market in the last 6 years but this is all on Sony for allowing it to happen and taking such a backseat.

Hi friends, 
 
The new FG server is up and running as of now! I posted the PW; if someone takes the time and effort to find this post, find us on the server and grief us: 1. I'll be impressed, 2. we will kill them, 3. I'll just change the PW 🙂.

well from what they said it's 1.0 in name only pretty much, but I am always down to be killed by some zombies

1.0 is on stable tomorrow 7/25! It's been 12 years of Alpha, shall we @Diddums @GazzaGarratt @Plumbers Crack @crispymorgan @RenFengge @Tar-Eruntalion @Greboth @Ajay @phil bottle?

Sorry guys. There's been serious problems back end but it's not been obvious to resolve. We've cleaned out alot of apps but weirdly it's still slow which makes no sense.
 
I've spoken to our Host and Software provider.
 
As I've not had much help from them, I'm waiting for a developer on Tuesday, so I'm hoping for a better outcome later next week.
 
If it's resolved, I think its the right time for an overhaul.

That is too much information Phil...

Sony are already removing paid products and shutting content servers down plus you also have the likes of Ubisoft even revoking licences and making games totally inaccessible so all in all, several games in the last decade have become unplayable. Some titles even require day one downloads to function because the disc is incomplete and about as useful as a paperweight. If a game has a single player component and can play out of the box then it's fine but there will be many titles that will become wholly unplayable.
 
Thankfully most of the modern shite isn't even worth treasuring which is why 99% of my games are digital now and I couldn't care less. Don't think I'll have the urge to visit The Crew 2 in 15 years time. I think after the PS3/XB360 era when physical media died and live service took over, that's when I stopped giving a toss. It's also the time the industry changed for the worse. 

I saw the first episode yesterday and I've got to say I was pretty impressed, it seems very good and solid with respect to the lore, honestly I have no complaints at all and goggins as a gunslinging ghoul is great!

Finished it last night and the inevitable sad feeling that another series isn't there to watch straight away kicked in. Safe to say its a fantastic and well made series, that explains the world of Fallout extremely well across the course of the entire series.
 
Having never been able to get past the character creation screen in Fallout, I didn't know anything much about the world of Fallout so its been a great insight into how things have been made. Like most series that hit super well with their first series, the challenge now is alot of the backstory and wow factor could be already known so really interesting to see if they can pull off a great second series now. I think the world looks like it can easily have 4-5 series in it but I suppose only the Fallout game experts will know how much has not yet been discovered! Maybe that gives me an even better feeling about the series going forward 😄
 
 

All done, loved it. 

I am onto episode 4 now and it carries on strong. You obviously appreciate everything more if you have played the games but it can easily be watched without any other knowledge.
 
Some funny moments in this too!

I dig it.

Very interesting, nice share John! @Tar-Eruntalion
 
4v1 games have got some traction with Friday the 13th type games in the past so being on PC is probably the best place they'll get that. Not sure how they'll manage matchmaking though as thats not been their bag before.
 
I just wish they'd push out a ton of RPG, quest shaping elements in the main 7 Days game as the sandbox makes the game worth playing, just needs a little more depth.

Apparently the devs of 7 days to die are going to release a new early access game, where 5 people play in pvp as 4 survivors vs 1 zombie hive master
