Philly, I came late to this I want to understand it abit more but the link has gone. Can you find it again please?

I'm liking the risk/reward of sneaking a bounty in the last minute or losing your entire character. Might start a separate thread on loadouts. Be good to start understanding what works well with each other. One thing I would say though is I only enjoy playing in a group of people I know. Co-ordination is key in the game and knowing that people here have your back and have an idea on which way to go helps way more than you realise.

I don't own Amazon Prime for the tv stuff, I see that as an added bonus cos theres barely been anything on it. I'm starting to get to a position where Sky is not as important for us as it used to be.

How much is the next 'upgrade' ship wise?

Just caught this on Twitter! Holy balls! Make sure you download it and let everyone know what you think here please!

Lol, I didn't expect many FGers to want to play this mode based on what we all seen to play these days. I just don't take sweatiness to heart, plus if it's another gamemode with decent loot then why not give it a go? You haven't got a clue yet how far you'll get. If you lose, you lose. No biggie, move on to the next match.

Like it mate. Not had as many issues as you but granted I'm sure I'll have my fair few black screens to come. I'm interested to see what other missions there are soon too. That'll definitely gauge how much more time I'll sink into it.

This is the only deal I want to look into outside of Netflix and Sky. My only issue is I don't think my family will watch it so it's basically just for me. And I then grudge paying that amount if that's the case. Still, it's a cracking deal for the movies on there. The Mandalorian has been well received so just for that I want to get it. I also want to watch all the Marvel Movies again in chronological order. I'd love to do that and spot some of the references as you go through. Is the Agents of Shield on it?

Now that would be a great finale to the season!

New expansion is out to revamp the entire game and whole new area, revisiting New York from D1 - £25.99. Multiple trailers below: It looks like they are going the right way with this. Power numbers to chase, whole new gear sets to find and what interests me most is the way they are creating 4 warlords that you have to take down. Very much Forsaken, Destiny arch-enemy styled which makes you get into the game more and want to hunt them down. With 8 player raids too that I've never got to, it sounds like a decent amount of content to get our teeth into. I've reinstalled and will look to buy this if we have a good group of people trying it out - what are peoples thoughts?

I loved it Phil. The first bit I did though I literally jumped out of my seat. I am utter shite at horror games but I wanted to give it a go. The way the zombies charge at you scared the crap out of me. Especially when in the dark areas I didnt know to crouch under the cans that hung from the ceiling. I honestly was shouting out at the screen, @Nutcuttlit , @J&B , @MrBiron and @ChaosGladiator were there I think just listening to how crap and slow I was doing the tutorial mission. Once I got into a squad, it's a slow paced game but self contained in the hour which I liked a lot. I like the fact its tactical against PvE and PvP too but not too many PvP players about (12 max in each game I believe). One of the bosses is utterly, ridiculously, stupid hard and Biron and me got him first - The Assassin. Made me realise I wasn't 12 with super twitch skills anymore 😭. But taking down bosses and then defending them are great. Lots to understand on the character building thing. And once you get to level 11 (I'm nearly there) if you get killed you lose that character - full stop. I think that's a great feature. High risk, high reward game like Nutty said before. Couldn't get on much last week due to half term activities but will invest some nights in it moving forward. Event nights would work well with this.

And that armour is one of the best sets we've had in D2.

Returning in season 10, now that the huge community challenge is complete, will be Trials of Osiris. Heres the trailer/small vi-Doc they released when it happened. One quick note to make that's different than in the video is that the Artifact was going to enabled fully so people wouldve been able to grind more Power and use their higher numbers in the mode. However, as it was a huge one drive which I've never seen this one sided, Luke Smith then tweeted this. So it's back. 3v3 comp styled games, some if the best armour comes back into the game. Removing Trials of the Nine for Osiris looks as if it will be welcomed by the large majority of players - I'm not sure that'll help me ever get to the Lighthouse for 9 straight wins though 😭 I think it's a decent addition - i'll firstly we've all got to get passed the 'it's old content argument' too. Just because it's old doesnt mean it was reworked and brought up to date is easy/lazy development and we shouldn't have it in D2. Also, I think the reveals keep getting ruined by massive datamining efforts and stupid unnecessary hype. I'm still more looking forward to what they are going to do in PvE wise and with the overall game world. However, I want to give this a go though. With people that have the patience that are gonna get smashed every so often (I mean could be everytime but who's counting, eh?). I want to get to that damn Lighthouse!!! What's your thoughts? You fancy a stab at it for shiz and giggles?

Must admit, looks tempting. And that's not normal for me as Superman is probably one of the superheroes at the bottom of my list, possibly bottom if I had to be totally honest.

It'll be developed for both gen consoles I imagine. I just wish I had a ton of money for collector editions. The figures with that come with this are amazeballs.

Back in the day E3 mattered a whole lot more without social media to where it is right now. The format doesnt work unfortunately because companies have much more control on when they want to announce and how it impacts them. I do miss one big build up to a time where we'd start to understand more about what is being launched. Maybe it's more we have to embrace smaller focused reveal shows that give consumers more access to more shows?

Yeah, about that. Might've lost the ship when getting the next delivery done. 😬 But in my defence, there was nothing in front of me, then all of a sudden it hit a black thing. Stoopid terrain. Oh, and somehow that gave me a crime stat level of 2. Brilliant end to a hard days work. FML. P.S. It was a great night btw, we now need to get the hacking thing I imagine to remove my crime stat stuffs.

Happy birfday @fg_cal -a-mory! Hope your beautiful sunshine face is knee deep in grog and filth by the time you read this 🍺😎

Happy birthday Bob! I don't think I can ever beat Diddums' pic of you, so i'll just say I hope you were as drunk as that for your day!

Omitted this too. If crossplay, we should support based on responses.

Very true. My point was to say if we want to game up more and get ourselves together its asking people to chip in more so. It can often feel like a lonely place trying to organise alot of activities. For any game its healthy to have multiple people helping sort out game nights and stuff to do. Ill still do my usual, you know me, but heres hoping people will feel like they can step up and help get behind the cause with more action 👍

I'm waiting to see what Overwatch 2 is. But if everyone made effort I'd be back on it in a heartbeat.

*Dad is here, quick, quick don't say shit about Destiny!!* A few things to say on it - I'll try and keep them to a point to help the thread keep moving 🙂 - Whatever game or games that could be the constants, they must be well supported by more than one person. We need people to help galvanise groups, create events, fun activities, etc. We lack that across the board for ages and it's why people get turned off cos they have no one to play with or not a clue what to do on their own. We make any game enjoyable in a group. It needs more than one/two people to do this shit. Period. - We will still get burnt out on games. That's why we need to be willing to play more than just 1 game, and get involved. We had some great routines of dipping between Destiny, Overwatch and CoD over the years and that works. Standard. - Games with c.6 people in a group is the ideal. Any less, we struggle because someone misses out or I'd argue those games will always pick up the drought when everyone cant be on. Outside of those points my thoughts dont change much from what is mentioned above. Destiny 2 - stuff doesnt matter is largely cos it's not knowing what to do or aim for. We have to remember it now answers the content drought on why we stopped playing Destiny 1 (which is why I cant see D1 as viable cos you'll quickly realise there isn't much to do). No other game evolves weekly that us as accessible as Destiny 2 on console. However, people need direction on what's available, (shit loads we all never did and tried) and also need to have patience on working together in raids. Also, main game is free, which is a quick way to help new people - and we will have to help them. Division 2 - 4 player mode but with 8 player raids (2 now I believe). Quite abit to learn and configure on builds. New update gives more space to do stuff. Its Destiny in third person with more focus on tactics. Rainbow 6 - FPS PvP is what we're all good at. This is arguably still the best on the market. Needs patience and game mode wont always suit everyone but that's why I suggest the below one too. CoD MW - FPS PvP that you don't have to think as much as Rainbow 6. This newest one has longevity. More people like it here than not. Its adding new modes over time AND FG was created from a CoD background. We need ideas for goals and challenges though to keep it fresh. I can't stress enough though, that we need the early points I raised being answered and multiple people to step up if we want to create something really enjoyable and fun for all.

Season 2 comes Thursday!! Thanks @phil bottle for letting me know it was coming, can't believe I didnt see anything about it! Loved the first series, hoping we get another decent bunch of episodes.
