  1. England are top of the group, unbeaten. Last performance wasn't great but wasn't abysmal either. Statistically in the hardest group so i'm not that bothered about what others think. Gareth Southgate, whatever you think of him, is spot on when he seemingly has to remind the British public that this is tournament football and you don't win the tournament in the group. You build up across the tournament. As football is our first and national sport, I understand the frustration. We all want our clubs to smash each team 25-0 every week, but it doesn't happen. Just abit of perspective needed although I'm not expecting it. English mentality dictates the backlash after evert game. I don't think many England fans understand the words 'balanced opinion'. I still would also like to see Foden at some point in this tournament too. In other games, they was some crackers yesterday. Morocco were superb to beat Belgium and I think Germany did well to stay in the game with Spain. Spain look great in the main but they didn't handle people running at them very well.
  2. Kind of, but this stuff exists everywhere now so I think its more about gaming culture changing more than anything. There are some that don't really want to work or even try in the slight to get weapons or unlocks in games anymore - this is exact same thing happens in Destiny 2 and has for years. Its really down to the company to ban and stop recoveries and people that actively play for others for money. It may be a shame that one gun is in a gamemode that some don't like or want to use, but thats not enough noise and reason to not make a reward like that available. If the game had 3 weapons and this was 25% of the available weapons then people may have a point but it won't break the game fundamentally at all. The real losers here are the people that pay money for it.
  3. Dont usually call people out but how Ramsey is still in this squad yet they can't give Ryan Hedges a place in the team, let alone the squad is beyond me. Wales have been awful.
    I love how this clip shows a good example of being selfish via @Macca89 and then the perfect example of being selfish by @LordBaguette FML 🤣🤣
  4. You've been busy @Diddums! You need to join the chat more often if you can find that button! 😅
  5. Been another few good games past few days. I wouldn't say its absolutely superb as we're still getting the drab 0-0's and many of the shocks are kind of quite boring for 45 minutes and then total manic in the next 45. Would love to see more of it though. Portugal were so lucky to get away with a win tonight. Ghana are super poor at the back but their antics through the game just always leaves you with a sour taste in the mouth doesn't it. I'd love to find a stat somewhere to see how much they've dived, rolled and stayed on the floor wasting minutes. Spain I think are a dark horse we just don't know what to expect still imo. Yes, a 7-0 win will always do wonders for morale but Costa Rica were probably the worst team here so far. It will be interesting to see if their passing game can beat Japan and Germany.
  6. Great news, finally. Looking forward to seeing if I can get an extra bit of cash to help towards those overpriced 3 legendary cars for the psn trophy now 😅 Let us know @phil bottle, if theres anything we should do before selling them e.g. washing the car, etc. Nice to also see a new track added too!
  7. Just on to this now. First one for me too so hopefully not too bad. Will need to try this out. Kastov 545 is Gold which means I can finally try the Kastov 74U. @IRaMPaGe @LordBaguette @MrBiron @Diddums @Greboth @Macca89 @Luseth @James5497 @datfroggieguy @techno I know some of you have been playing lately, so you must have some gold guns by now?!
  8. The Lockwood 300 shotgun needed a tune to tone down that range. Jot sure the large flinch will do much to stop people using the SPR, however as more people start playing this, the more guns later down the track should out perform it.
  9. What am I missing? How on earth does this work?? I cant believe I'm interested in this but it actually looks pretty damn cool. Is it purely set up for PC play or console play?
  10. Haven't saw this yet and if I'm honest, don't expect to see much with console players even if I haven't got crossplay switched off. Doesnt seem to make much difference.
  11. What a game that was! Super strikes too by Saudi Arabia. Spain did lose their first game of their winning run a few years ago so its not over, but Argentina did look void of ideas for the most part.
  12. In short, yeah it feels weird and not overall happy thats in Qatar, but we've known that for 12 years and not done anything about it. People that can make and change decisions need to just do better in that category. As soon as England kicked off today it started to feel like it was here though now, albeit at Christmas. Great performance to start. Weird penalty at the end. I hope they come out and say it shouldn't have been given as that could ruin the entire tournament with penalties galore. Would love to see Bellingham be the Player of the Tournament. Looking forward to seeing how Wales get on tonight.
  13. Finished VEL-46 SMG last night. Got a little sporadic and started other ARs whilst i had the last few 3 kills without dying challenge. I'm not far off Khastov 545, still need hipfires with it first. Mainly so I can then use the Khastov 74U. @TigerBurge , got the STB going. Pretty decent although not as quick as the original Khastov. Had a few epic moments with it though already. Any attachment suggestions for it?
  14. Painter is in the house for a few days so hopefully I get to catch up on some of these over the next few weeks @Riff Machine . Glad to see you're all churning them out still. I can feel the good momentum you've got so hope it continues into 2023 for you 3 👊
  15. Not noticed it yet, but I would always expect Warzone to have louder footsteps. Not noticed much footsteps difference so far in MP. More actual weird lag spikes though. Hoping its just early days after the big patch.
  16. Personally? Love the idea, funny as hell. If its driven only by Microtransactions though? Nope. A bit of a waste if that happens. Need to get access for free on multiple parts first.
  17. I was actually being reasonable when I said the last 3-4 CoDs, Gaz. For me, this game does have some of the best maps i've played in a long ass time. 😄 I don't have rose tinted glasses on for all those old CoD games and when we've played reprised old CoDs the games didn't play well. MW Remastered is only worth FG private games and thats about it. I just can't see how they are that bad. I'm glad this CoD has at least got us talking, even if we are polar opposites! 🤣
  18. A well co-ordinated attack between us on the VTOL still ends up getting them a Quadfeed. FML.
  19. I wouldn't have played it back then so unfortunately dont have comparisons to fall back on. I think the challenge is any type of map design is always worth a try, but when it is a square map that is on the whole, wide open from most corners, it literally forces you to camp or play extremely slowly to move from flag to flag. It is literally suicide running through the middle as its wide open and you get picked off so quickly, so you resort to Plan B, which is run around the edge to capture flags far away...but 7-8 times out of 10, you find you run for 1-2 minutes to be shot quickly at the other end, which means a long ass run for your next death. Other maps like Border Crossing (starting to come round to this map abit more) have multiple ways to play it. Thats what maps need, just different angles and possibilities. The worse thing going for Taraq is like @TigerBurge said, is generally how CoD players usually play. They don't play like FG does of which 95% of us PTFO. That map is designed to help those campers that just want kills, whereas others you can flip spawns quickly and force the slow campy players that don't play objectives out of their holes more often.

    Rugby

    I'd say the England game vs Japan whilst we were away together looked on the face of it reasonably easy. Difficult to use it as motivation for New Zealand and South Africa but I think right now its the time for the upsets given Argentina also beat Australia. Time to re-evaluate Argentina as one of the stronger forces perhaps for the next World Cup? What do you think, Elliott @Middle Class Caveman ? You seemed to enjoy watching the Rugby over the weekend!
  21. Sounds like more of a decent place to shop around Christmas for ideas for different people. I kind of like they have evolved in some way away from pretty much just music, however I really do miss browsing new music like that as it would help me look through genres I enjoyed and find similar types of CDs and playlists that would be worthwhile buying. I don't really listen to much new music because of the new digital rental services like Spotify and Apple Music. I keep a lookout for the Coventry store when we get chance to go into the city centre soon.
  22. 20 slottable spells sounds good to me. I do think it looks like a cracking game and one of very few single player games i'll make time for next year.
  23. I really can't get with this. This guy I know is putting it across in a way more damning way to get more views but its no way near that bad on this game than the previous 3-4 CoDs which goes to show this game is much better than expected. I think making maps to be able to re-use the areas for multiple gamemodes makes absolute sense - the file size of the game gets hurt even more if you just make bespoke 6v6 maps alone. We'll all agree that there are some maps that it just doesn't work out and feels lazy, such as Taraq, but in the main I think most do. He shows gameplay of the racetrack one and that by far has great lanes but also good interchanges between the middle and the side rooms imo. Taraq is the only one I feel like I am running across the map forever and get picked off so quickly and easily. The Border Crossing is my only other poor map but even then its trying to do something different with the maps rather than the standard box sized 3 lanes.
  24. Khastov AR is probably the easiest and quickest Gold i've done so far. Just the Gold challenges now for the VEL-46 SMG and then i'll move on to another AR and SMG. Battle Rifle wise, I'm actually struggling more than others with SPR208. Don't really know what attachments help with this? Just feel like i'm a sitting duck most of the time with it and just get hit markers rather than one hit kills.
