  1. Good read. Thanks for sharing @J4MES OX4D. Genuine question - when was 60fps first available on games? Regardless of platform. One thing is for sure, Activi$ion get called out for their dollar dollar attitude within 12 months when we do have a 60fps version on console (thats my estimate), regardless of what we think now.
  2. Maybe that's the point though. I'm certainly not going to take sides with them on this, however we know development started on the game way before the Pro and Xbox One X existed or planned. I've been involved in these type of decisions before on projects. There comes a crossroads whereby they find out new info and have to make a choice; spend time stopping at starting from almost scratch for 60fps, or carry on the course. It has to be down to development time and the cost of the resources over that time and nothing else.
  3. Mark Noseworthy has given a more in-depth response to this debate for console and then links to PC in the last bits he states. His quote is below: "It’s about the simulation of the Destiny world. Thirty AI at once, large open spaces, six players, sometimes with vehicles, and dropships coming in; that’s where we’re using the CPU. Could we make a Destiny game that ran at 60 fps? Yes, but the space would be smaller, it would be less cooperative, and there’d be fewer monsters to shoot. That’s not the game we want to make. First and foremost, we’re trying to make an incredible action game. We don’t feel we’ve been held back by the choices we’ve made about world simulation versus frame rate; in fact, we think we’re offering a player experience you can’t have elsewhere because of the choices we’re making. But if frame rate is something that’s really important to you, there is a platform now where you can spend as much money as you want, to go as fast as you want." As much as it would be great to see 60fps on console, if it was a deal between framerate and content of enemies and battles then I choose the latter every time.
  4. Guys, is this still active? What does this have and used for? I clicked the link and it has 13 people in it, most I know. If someone can fill me in that would be great. I also want to ask if some of the others active on Steam can reach out to the others please. We should tell them we are more active on there going forward and to get their arses back online with us all. Via the FG App
  5. Brink is free to play on Steam as if today. The DLCs I think are on offer too for $1 each. Via the FG App
  6. Great update. 2 months rather than 3 months. Control games best of 3 rather than 5. PLACEMENT CHANGES! This should mean we place higher and much nearer to where we should be. We may need to wait longer for matches to get more 50/50 games but I'm pretty cool with that. Love fucking Blizzard. Their support to regularly update their game and then explain fully the reasons why its superb.
  7. Lesion looks like a really intersting Defender I'd probably use. The fact you can keep putting traps down as time goes on could be vital. Especially if you put a trap on every entry way to the Secure Area. The map looks ace. It's the first added map that I've been excited about. Maybe because of what it is but nonetheless its amazing they are still adding plenty of stuff to R6.
  8. It SHOULD be fine with Blizzard, Nvidia and Bungie around. However I was on about the actual third party developers, Vicarious Visions. They are the key people. The others mostly stick the money in. However, there's a lot at stake from a reputational view so I can see this being a success regardless of Day 1 bugs.
  9. Good luck Richyboi! Morning FG!
  10. Bart does make a good point. I wasn't a part of the really early days so I guess I don't have that much of a preference either way. I just want to see things interesting if I'm brutally honest.
  11. To be honest I remember @TigerBurge saying the first one was quite fun and relaxing. @Amnotright said a similar thing last night. I actually think the game will be a 'fun and friendly' game. Problem is most of us here aren't drawn to those games. We'd give them a go but it would get boring quite quick. I sort of see it as Overwatch Quick Play vs Competitive. Quick Play is fun, but no one can really be that arsed to play it and it doesn't push you to your limits. That's why competitive wins every time. I didn't like OW at all until lv25 and Competitive. If it has a competitive type scene then that keeps the game interesting.
  12. Did you see that they've actually confirmed AOE2 and AOE3 will be remastered?
  13. That was brilliant. It makes me wonder if we're getting a PvE mode with this by chance? A new map is well overdue anyway, with a game like this I think it needs to focus on a larger update that remains available as it just won't get the same play time once Destiny 2 comes out.
  14. I've never played one but I've always been interested in these games.
  15. The Blizzard partnership also means that you will get voice and text chat in-game as well as whispers. The Blizzard friend list will be available alongside the clan friends list.
  16. I really enjoyed watching that. The killstreaks look really good although the ball turret seemed a bit OP. I'm even more hopeful this will be at least as good as Black Ops 3 after looking watching it.
  17. At Gamescom, Deej released a bunch of specific detail that has been made available just for PC players so the game will feel like it fits on a PC rather than just a port. PC players will get: Adjustable field of view in-game framerate counter uncapped framerate graphics that scale up to 4K support for SLI for multiple GPUs support for ultra wide aspect ratios high dynamic range (HDR) lighting Also, Nvidia are releasing a Geforce GTX 1080 TI bundle. This is actually better than I thought. I'm still unsure if the third party can pull it off as this reeks of cash cow, however this type of accommodation for PC players is going a little way to removing that.
  18. Morning FG. Enjoy today not being a Monday.
  19. 'BRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNGGGGGGG' and 'We're okay, I have my Super'
  20. until

    I fucked up on the date! We didn't do it today, it's for Thursday! See if you can make it!
  21. until
    From @Greboth's original post. Last week's games were hilarous with 10 of us in it. Let's do it all over again. It is played in your web browser at: http://www.pretendyoure.xyz/ which I can create a private game for us all. Also you will need to have discord as CaH only works when talking with each other so download it at: https://discord.gg/DhZj6eh . So be there or be a rectangular thing.

  23. Yeah, we've been playing Blops 3 a few times over the last 6 weeks and had some great nights on it. However, that doesn't mean we need a forum for it. I'm cool with whatever the outcome is.
  24. Good question. If it isn't anymore then that's cool with me.
