  1. Moon developer insights from Bungie. A really great video into how the moon will be changing from what we've seen in D1.
  2. Sea of Thieves is now moving to a monthly cadence for updates so we have more regular changes to the game that should make you want to stay in the game for longer periods rather than wait for months with the big content drops they've done previously. I like this way of updates. Initially feels light but before you know it they'll be a few more months content and it pushes the play around the seas and gives you multiple choices to have different nights chasing after different loot or whatever the update is. I really fancy jumping back into this to see if we can find some of this explosive loot and see if we can get the high value contracts/quests. What do others think to this more regular pattern of updates?
  3. Pretty significant changes. You will now be asked to pick the role you want to play before heading into a quickplay or a competitive game. Tank, DPS or Support. Once you find your game, you will be only allowed to choose a Hero out of the role you've pre-selected. They want to push the 2-2-2 format as they want the change in the meta which is already being seen in playtests and the fact that some heroes will be getting some substantial changes. I need to rewatch this one as its 16 minutes long but they probably needed a shake up to the game to keep it fresh...i'm just not sure forcing every team to be 2-2-2 is the way to go. At least they'll be 3 rankings you'll have now so if you end up having an awful score on one, you have 2 more chances to get your rank higher on the other 2 😄 What do you guys reckon? Good change or will it not be worth the effort?
  4. Nice @Dylanimo16. When it is properly going and the expert Phil has had a go, I may try to get a night on it with the others.
  5. Seems ominous in how they make a nod to some serious key personnel they are losing. Makes me feel like they have made a direction change for the game and they can't support as they could. Do you think they are winding down their workrate Phil?
  6. I don't want this ever to happen to prove a point but when will they just release licences for a reasonable cost so both FIFA and PES can have all the kits so people can just decide which one feels the better footballing experience for them. Unfortunately too many people pick FIFA because of the 'thrill' of FIFA packs and licences. I don't think this will change much in the upcoming years, regardless of Juventus' allegiance switch because Konami are extremely tight when it comes to stumping up licence fees. Football games for me were the be all and end all way back in my teens and I can't deny I miss that feeling. It will still take a lot to regular get me back there because of how much the games these days are reliant on you having a claw grip technique on the controller so you can use all 74 buttons at once to do a step over and pass back to the keeper.
  7. Sorry to hear you had to start again. I think they are the only thing the wife knows i'd never want to ever part with even if we have to sell everything else to keep us afloat. I did trade in 2 games once, felt physically sick afterwards and never did it again 😄 Some great games back in the OG Xbox and Xbox 360 era, i'd probably say they were some of the very best times for games. So many unique and great games back then. Defnitely dust it off dude, at the end of the day, we enjoy just hanging and playing together. If we can help other get stuff done thats a Brucey bonus. Make sure you do matey 👍
  8. He had a bad few months when Trent Alexander-Arnold decided to turn up his performances in the last few months. Before that, i still would've picked Trippier over Trent AA. Problem it looked like to me was his actual fitness levels took a beating and he struggled to make any impact in the last 15/20 minutes whereas someone like Trent AA was continuing to hurt teams in that last 20. I'd still put as England's number 2 and tbh he's going to the biggest club in Spain outside the El Classico rivals. I hear you @phil bottle, definitely agree to keep a player with more heart than skill, personally. Gels better with a team mentality.
  9. Thats a shame. Absolutely loved the New Order, one of my all time favourite SP games on the PS4, great storyline too. If I recall, there was some moments where you could get lost even on the old games as well the New Order which is the latest one i've played but not enough to piss me off. The AI have always been somewhat....different in Wolfenstein games to any others. Its usually why I end up playing it through on hard and then the highest difficulty on the next playthrough. As to the level design, do you think a better mini-map or objective beacon reminder system would be a better way to go? I don't think they could ever be an open world game, definitely suits the linear level design.
  10. That's interesting as an outsider and not a Spurs fan, I had the opposite opinion. Rather sell Rose than Trippier but you get to see your players way more than me so fair play.
  11. Destiny wise, theres plenty of us to help you level up reasonably quickly so dont let that put you off 🙂 yeah, ironically I end up playing Fortnite on my Switch on the weekends because I need to help my son do the battle pass challenges! it's not that bad of a game now they have tons of objectives to complete. Re: collections, once Gamestation on the high street stopped selling old games and they all went to eBay, people think as its 'retro' games are worth way more than they are. I always have a flurry of games in a small period or will look for a small job lot to try and justify paying over the odds for a game or 2. I'll dig out a website that I used to use to log my games and hardware.
  12. £15 seems abit steep for a monthly fee if you ask me.
  13. It does have a more of a competitive feel to it. I'd like to see the random gun generator on a gamemode with 6v6. That would be hilariously good fun.
  14. Funnily enough a top bloke at my work has just got a job as a QA lead at Codemasters after being a Test Lead at my place for a few years. He said money is completely different (much lower than expected) but can't complain as hes finally in the industry. You'll get there matey, if you want it badly enough! And 9k....you got off lightly compared to others! 😂😂😂
  15. What I read that it was a great solid game but because they took a little too long to release they ended up with a game that wasn't the first of it's kind. Shame as I here it's an amazing story as per Phil's comments above.
  16. Welcome to FG, Rob 😄 That's a great intro btw, loving you enjoy keeping games (I'm known to only like physical forms of games here 😉). I'll have to share my collection details with you soon as well, although it needs to be updated. Glad you have a PS4, dont ever be put off to get on soon with us on a few games, we clearly are lower than your benchmark as we aim to please with our awful aims. Really hope you enjoy your stay here, great to see you around other convos already too! Lee
  17. That Huddersfield kit is naughty. With all the money that's flying around I cannot believe Trippier has gone to Atletico Madrid for 21m. Every other club has missed a trip there (excuse the pun). @phil bottle not quite sure why youd let him go. Then again, nice to see and English player taking a chance abroad though.
  18. Not sure its gonna drop for a while now that we have a cheaper more viable option for people to grab a Switch. You may need to buy Zelda BOTW 1 AND 2 when it finally comes down in price 😄 £100 difference is huge to alot of families. Especially when you see families that have more than one child as well and they want to buy one for each of their kids. It's definitely able to take the place of the 3DS and retain their usual high prices for a long period of time. You can't go wrong if anyone does get this one though. Its still a Switch and its all about the games which are top notch.
  19. Thought this was a nice little read. Looks like there is a decent live feed available on Friday about their future plans to visit the Moon and Mars. NASA Celebrates 50th Anniversary of Historic Moon Landing | NASA WWW.NASA.GOV NASA will celebrate the 50th anniversary of the historic Apollo 11 Moon mission and look to the future of exploration on the Moon and Mars with a live, two-hour television broadcast Friday, July 19, and partner-led... Love Space stuff. I must admit i would've thought we'd have made some more ground on space exploration in the past 20 years. Maybe more to come in the next 20.
  20. July 16th to August 5th A challenge per week available. I fancy the 3rd week with the Reinhardt skin. That Hamster ball skin though is awesome.
  21. Weekly reset w/c 16th July. Full Curse week people so Shattered Throne available again. Also, worth doing The Corrupted Nightfall to try and drop Horror's Least Auto Rifle, the Nightfall Strike specific loot for your Dreaming City Badge in Collections.
  22. What a game. What a final! CHAMPIONS OF THE WORLD!!!! I felt sick watching it for the last 2 hours, the game swayed one and then other constantly. We restricted the Kiwis to a reasonable total, it felt like they were 20-40 runs short and when England kicked off their batting we looked like we could run away with it. Then Roy got out, then another followed and another. The runs just stopped coming as freely as they started. Mind you, the New Zealand bowlers were ripping us apart. Once Buttler was caught and us nearly needing 2 an over I thought we were done yet again. I don't think we'll ever see that happen ever again. a 6 caught on the rope, then the next ball a million to one chance hitting Stokes' bat as he dives to the crease. What a fucking play 😂 To then tie a game so you have a Super Over and then for both teams to score 15 runs was incredible. Thought we lost it again after a wide and then a huge 6 that really left it in the Kiwis hands to just knock a few 2's in the last few balls. Accidentally punching my ceiling in ecstacy was totally worth a few days pain 😂 England Rugby 2003 England Cricket 2019 just need to see the Footy team give us that ultimate dream one day and I can die a happy man.
  23. Great intro Rich! Welcome to FG mate, looks like you'll fit right in if you're looking for a chill time around here. Do you play any other consoles? We do have people that are on PC (like myself only sometimes though) but we have a lot on PS4 here too. Aswell as a couple on Switch but nothing MP that i'm aware of. Have you managed to find a gig yet with those 3 years of Design work? Hope you enjoy your stay at FG bud. Lee
  24. Its actually good point you make. I've seen a few steps acting like that recently, such as on Lumina, you have to get 35 points which you can do through either Blind Well, EP or Forges. I'm hopeful we'll see more of those but equally I think they do this to gauge what the interest is in the community on which stuff they'd rather do to get the points.
