Shiiiiiiiit. Might not work without it though.

Yeah, I seen a video this morning about it. Anyone that ordered digitally just gets access to the beta by searching for it whereas everyone else puts a code into Bungie.net and then get the code to redeem via the PlayStation Store.

Great stuff Chris, if you just go to the Calendar you can click 'Going' so we know you can make it. I believe @Stretch616 can make it and maybe @SensaiNemesis? Means we'd only need one more.

They make the best trailers Wolfenstein.

I may need to ask Bart or you to help me just sort out my file issues. If its installed then I'm more likely to dip into it when I have spare 30 minutes. It's just getting it to work properly and last time I tried I messed it up somehow.

I would usually pop it back into the section its under. If there is no desire for Warframe (there wasn't last time I asked), then we probably need to archive that one. Let me think about it.

Pre-ordered standard edition 2 days ago, beta email with code came this morning. Can't wait to play some new Destiny content next week.

Release date set. NA October 17th. Europe October 18th.

Happy Friday FG! So glad its the weekend again.

Even if you haven't got a code yet Sam?

Thought i'd get a roll call going to understand who has pre-ordered and therefore playing the beta from 18th (4 days time) or who is waiting until the launch? If you don't pre-order you still get to play 2/3 days of the beta.

Thanks Nick, we'll definitely just see how it goes. As for Rainbow, just gotta give the others in Discord a nudge and if they have something to share post it up. I'm sure there's quite a lot to share still and there is a decent amount of UK lot on here that haven't grouped up with you or the other NA guys.

I thought about it but it may be a tad early as i'm not sure how much you can write home about? It is already on my 'if enough want it, lets do it' Ok. So Survival game section sounds good. Might be easier than having those separate to start with and then see what interest there is.

There you go. That wasn't too hard Nice, a gaming drunk scientist. All joking aside, its been fun playing Overwatch lately with you, hopefully the new CoD won't suck as hard as IW.

I can't help but love the fact your son fits in with us without him even being here. I chuckled at the thought of Diddums eventually sorting himself out and getting on to the server, only for that TNT to blow him multiple times.

I want PPRs separate - It can be shown but greyed out to everybody that you can't see this section unless you're logged in as a member. Also, looking at the games I can see we'll at least keep: Destiny Minecraft CoD Rainbow Overwatch GTA I can't see anything else standing out right now tbh, but this is up to you guys if there is. @phil bottle @tronic44 you'll have to shout up if you want 7 days still there

Well done Tom. You beat Chris @Amnotright to it May help if you give us more than that though! What games do you play mate? Whats your interests? Welcome to FG bud, hope you enjoy your stay

Ah fuck it. I'm going to change some of the forum structure around and try something. If it don't work its not hard to change it back or keep tweaking it. We need more at the top level so people can see the threads when they come to the site as its mainly the regulars that will look deep into the structure. We'll have a main FG games section so call out what you want to have. Its clear we need Destiny and the key ones at the top. I want to see how it goes so I would appreciate any feedback. A number of subforums will fallback into their respective containers e.g. Diablo back into RPG. We also have a pretty big update that will show off threads as the main feature more, and i'm also looking into a few more themes, including the Merchandise section and a section for you guys to resurrect something similar to the blog but more like articles. Let's try something. If it don't work, shout the fuck up. If something works and you want more of it, shout the fuck up. Fanks

Great stuff. Tbh, we've had a few nights already on this recently and we had up to 8 people turn up so it was a decent turn out. We'll defintely get more nights like this on. Let me know when you're around on the weekend?

Come on people, who's about tomorrow for a raid? I can see Greboth can't make it but what about the rest of you?

What would you suggest Tommy? Game? Console? Happy to help sort but not sure what people want to try out.

Morning FG Hows the mouth squire?

New updates released to PTR today. No roadhog changes yet, even though defense buff for him has been mentioned by big Jeff. Doomfist Rocket Punch Total distance traveled reduced by about 20% (This change has been on the PTR for a little while now) Seismic Slam Added a new UI indicator to show how much damage it will deal, and how much it dealt. Previously this was only indicated by the default crosshair filling in, but this is only visible when using the default crosshair. The new indicator should always be visible, regardless of any crosshair changes. Also, targeting this ability while in the air is now restricted to locations lower than your current height. McCree Flashbang Now slows targets significantly when they are stunned. This makes them less likely to slide away around a corner or something similar once they are stunned. Reaper Shadow Step VO and SFX distance dramatically reduced. Reinhardt Hammer Swing speed increased by ~10%. On top of the swing speed increase, we’ve gone through and tweaked many timings and other things about the Hammer to make it more responsive. Overall it should feel a lot better to swing and make contact with enemies. Charge Impacting another charging hero (Doomfist or Reinhardt) no longer deals damage to both characters, but still causes a knockdown on both. Zarya Graviton Surge Now disables all movement abilities of affect targets. This is similar to how Junkrat’s trap affects abilities. Zarya's Ultimate change is massive. That means Genji, Reinhardt, D.Va and others that can blast away from it, can't so its time to stack the ultimates around Zarya then! Also, I think its good they are supporting Reinhardt as well, his hammer needed tweaking.

Found another Rik Mayall one for you @phil bottle

Read this on PC Gamer. Bought Astro for $85 million in cash. Long time keyboard and mouse juggernaut Logitech today announced that Astro Gaming will join its team in a full out acquisition. Announced in a blog post by Logitech Gaming head Ujesh Desai, Astro will become part of the Logitech Gaming brand, and bring along its entire portfolio of gaming headsets. In the post, Desai mentions that Astro will focus primarily on making products for consoles, while Logitech G will continue to be focused on PC gaming products. Logitech keyboards and mice have long been a staple for many gamers, including ourselves. "I’m happy to share that we’ve found this same love for design and the sport of gaming in our newest team members: joining the Logitech G gaming team is ASTRO Gaming. ASTRO’s history of producing award-winning headsets for pro esports and console gamers perfectly complements the PC gaming expertise Logitech G is best known for," Desai said. The most notable part of this says Astro will be for consoles and Logitech for PC. That should mean the end of multi platform support from Astros. Not sure how I feel about that.
