  1. Great find Seb @ChaosGladiator. Definitely looks like some great fun and a solid mix of building with exploring/fighting. Sea of Thieves is a fun game to play with a bunch of us, but I do miss that slightly styled Black Flag game we had years ago that had lots of mini games and quests to achieve.

     

    How many are allowed in a co-op group on the game?

  2. The UI has got hurt somewhat review wise, understandably. However, its been received very positively - I think what helps is that Arc Raiders is the chill PvEvP game more weighted to PvE, whereas this is more weighted to PvP. Having said that, theres lots of puzzles to explore and with Arc Raiders content delivery pattern not helping certain players (including myself), I can see why this has appeal.

     

    We're into an era of playing more than one game is the way forward because one game these days can't satisfy consumers enough as they don't evolve quick enough (whether I agree with that or not, its just gaming right now).

     

    The gunplay looks everything I expected it to be. I'm trying it over the next week. Hopefully not going to get stuck in UI admin, which is a real killer.

    Seems a good selection of games to be honest, I have always fancied trying a monster hunter game and I wouldn't mind giving ESO a go to having felt it passed me by a little. My brother has been talking about playing it too so maybe something to jump on together.

     

    There was a few of us here that really tried to give Monster Hunter a go when it came out. @Stretch616  played it quite abit too. I struggled with the mechanics a little, but its very good in a party to help track down certain monsters in the game.

    Agree, I reinstalled it yesterday and I'll give it a go this evening. I'm intrigued to see if it turret ends up doing all my work for me 🫠

     

    Let us know how it feels mate. I have since seen they are bringing out a new DLC and I'm really keen to start all over again on this game. Seems to have a lot of playability in it still and lots to collect too.

  5. Looks fantastic tbh. The puzzles, albeit seem very hard, will keep the game fresh and wanting you to discover more and more of the world. I think I may have to add it on my list too. £50 for PS5 is extremely good price online right now for a large open world game.

    Can I just say, Bodø/Glimt smashing Inter Milan 5-2 over 2 legs is one of the wildest scores I have ever seen in football 😂

     

    They are really underrated, some of their passing play is just quality so probably not too suprised that they turned them over! Inter Milan aren't the giants they once were unfortunately.

    Terrible ownership.

     

    Still baffling to me. Can someone help me understand if the ex-Wolves Manager that got them about 2 points from 751 games, manages to get the Forest job now? 🙈

  8. That's so cool, Pat! Only thing that always puts me off models is the painting part. How long does it take for the painting, for instance on the Plane?

     

    If Lego hadn't come along so much then I'd definitely look into some of this historic models. I'll have to find my cards that my Grandad used to collect for me that talks about all different planes and aircraft.

    That’s the only one at the moment I’ve seen. I presume it’ll have many functions and applications for many different products. Perhaps it links with you phone and you chose what it doesn’t through that? I have no idea to be honest, just seems neat.

     

    Yeah I'm surprised I've not seen the extra questions asked yet about how the mechanics work with the block. On a mobile app makes perfect sense though. It surely can't be that intuitive to work itself out on its own?

  10. Is it always with the 4 button lego block that you've seen? It'll be interesting as over time they'll be under pressure to make smaller or unusual shapes for this. The understanding to know what it actually is connecting to, is crazy. Surely you must have to program it that you're putting it into an X-Wing instead of a F1 Car?

     

     

  11. The Shared Watch is a celebration of Raiders that have each other's back. From February 10-24, Raiders who battle the ARC will unlock items, Raider Tokens, and progress through the new cosmetic set: The Slugger.


    How to progress
    Players will earn merits from destroying, assisting and damaging ARC and earn rewards. No merits will be earned from PvP encounters. Bring a friend or bring a stranger, but above all, bring enough ammo to make sure the machines notice you first.

     

    Thoughts

    Looks like they're pushing a 2 week event of full PvE rather than PvP aspect. Initial reaction is it would've been nice to get something else other than just XP. However, the idea of getting people to think more about joining up and hurting the bigger Arc enemies I really like. How many is a good number to help take down a Matriarch? I think the latest free 'Project' near the latter stages requires Queen reactor parts and some other high level Arc parts so it could be a good idea to get partied up a few times where possible.

     

    What's everyone else thinking?

     

  12. Now this is really odd to me - comments are quite negative but this looks good and the concept of them trying something standalone and different shouldn't be discouraged surely.

     

     

     

    Appreciate there's a lot of people that love HZD, as do I, but this doesn't mean they are going away from Single Player games. They even confirm that in the video. The idea of a multiplayer PvE co-op game excites me and with the type of graphical way its being made, I definitely its been done like this to allow them to add content more regularly into the game over time.

     

    Good early features via each type of 'Hunter' and decent ideas about Dungeon style puzzles to solve too. Looks standard 3 player but hopefully they'll be making it so you can make 6 player co-op bigger events like Raids, etc. Thats when games really stand out, showing the art of the possible and more people join it in the hope that its what they can achieve one day. Any thoughts?

  13. I've tried to start the 4th series a month back as I wasn't letting Henry Cavill departing get to me that much. Its been okay so far. The first few episodes have some decent fights in them. I think you do feel the difference between Henry Cavill and Liam Hemsworth though and I'm trying hard to ignore it but its definitely difficult to do so.

     

    I'll watch a few more episodes and hopefully the desire sticks with me.

    I agree, I would have snapped up the dlc had it been of a more reasonable price. My collector lever went straight to the max 70 the first time I played the update so noting much for me to chase there. I'm also at the max credits of £100 million. But yes the new tracks were sorely needed and I'm glad not gated off by the dlc...

     

    Ah thats so disappointing that it backdates your collector level! No idea why they didn't make a collector level to match the total amount of cars in the game from Day one 🙈

     

    I'm going to give the tracks a go at some point this week. Hopefully they're nice to drive.

  15. I think they've been caught behind the curve. Appreciate this gamemode is what everyone wants to play these days, but I think they probably needed to be quicker - and better - in their implementation. Pubg did a great effort to get people to open their world to a new gamemode as they essentially started the BR world...but just like that area, their game was never made in a polished, complete state. I'll pass thanks.

  16. You're only as good as your last game, eh? A pretty true statement if you look at industry hype and what people back. They do make some great looking games and the D&D style worlds have an unlimited amount of scope to them, so its a good time to announce another game in this genre.

     

    You always hope for a gameplay trailer, but I suppose this was quite a nice feeling, thinking back to the good old days of getting really early hype from announcement trailers. The cyclical world is just about ready for E3 to pull itself out of the grave perhaps....😅
