Yeah, EA really have made it a struggle once again as the only option i'd say is for the PS5 players to get the cross-gen version which gives you access to both PS4 and PS5 game. We still have around 6 people playing on PS4s and i'm not leaving any of them behind, its not what we do. As for FIFA23, i'd like to see if we can pull off some different challenges alongside Pro Clubs. Cup runs would help more often, and then there is the Tourneys we create for ourselves on here. Sunday and Monday seem the better nights for regular playing still, although we should always remind people you don't have to show up for both and we can always do ad-hoc nights on other days if we find enough want to play. If we use the Events on FG correctly, we can always check who is coming and if there's at least 4 people it should be a good one. I also need to look at new Achievements for the new game but also need to look at what to do about keeping stats. I don't want it to be a huge overhead for me to do but equally its fun if we do it for each session. When inconsistency of record keping and CBA thoughts to it are creeping in, then it just devalues why we do it. I'd like to spin up the Game Hub page once again properly and also get quite a few Guides out - people still probably don't realise @jordie1892 's guides on builds for FIFA 21 are sitting there with way over 10k hits on each so it shows it helps us and new people coming to FG. FInal ask would be I'd love for us to have a huge squad and now I think subs can work, it means we can have more than 11 sometimes and multiple nights for us all to play together.

I've updated our site with a new poll function and it looks like its knocked out the old/current one BAH!!! I'll get another poll set up separately and try and link it in the main OP! 😄

When James@anticonscience mentioned about getting it on Xbox I thought it would be good to get an understanding who is getting MW2 on what platform - this will help us work out if we start Playstation parties or/and look out for game chat parties. I also think we may need to start sharing our Activision gamertags too - if we have enough players, I can start looking at adding a Profile field for everyone at FG if people want that too? For the first time I think we'll start to see alot more crossplay so lets see if we can make that happen with everyone here!! Vote away folks! https://forevergaming.co.uk/forum/index.php?/polls/2-what-platform-you-buying-mw2-on/

Happy birthday Maccaroon!! @Macca89 Hope you have a great day pal 😎❤️💃

Was that an attempt to explain you felt really young and youthful in there??

I need to invest more time into putting up some garden threads. This is great, thanks for sharing @Luseth . My mum has a love for gardening and I do too enjoy seeing lovely gardens, just never knew where to start. I'm probably more into growing nice flowers than vegetables, etc, but you are tempting me to restructure the garden so we have a small patch for growing some things. I think it would help the kids too learn new things. Where do you get your flower seeds from?

Are we really saying its worse than the press F to pay respects mission? Shame some aren't finding it great. Its obviously going to be somewhat cheesy as they are re-introducing all the better characters in the past. It does look great from the small clips i've seen, really well done on the graphics side.

Finally got back on. Enjoyed running in for the most part....and then somehow I got an infection. FUCK! Tried my best to keep running so far through the woods to get up to Carl @TurboR56Mini as he had some tetro...dffdkcjvbugvchjbsdsddsk pills or whatever you call them, but La @RenFengge advised me that if you have it too long Stage 2 kicks in and then i'm on the slow path to no way back. However, I thought I lucked out as I was going to Gorka and stumbled upon a Hospital! What are the chances, eh? But then what are the chances of the Hospital having any tetro...,sdfhdfuhdciudhcbcy pills? Charcoal tablets galore, surgical gloves and a way to get my blood out if i wanted....but no tetro....you get the jist. I opened the door and Zimbies were right outside, so trying to battle through so I could start my pessimistic run to Carl, I got battered and knocked out. Waking up in a daze, with pretty much no health, I thought I would try one last attempt to get healthy...by removing a bag of my own blood, combining with an IV kit, and then giving myself a transfusion back into myself. Yes, I am that stupid, but hoped it would glitch out my stupid infection. Alas, it did not. I was dead. 2nd life rolling, I got a great spawn up on the East Coast so felt good thinking I could meet Carl soon. I thought I would go to the first town to get supplies before heading off. Berezino didn't have much and I just needed abit more food before Zombies approached my area. Next thing I knew my pipe wasn't hitting them hard enough and after playing the Crystal Maze with 4 Zombies over fences and around Greenhouses, they cut me. Problem was my bandage was all used up, no type of knife to cut some rags, so.....I was dead. I really have a problem playing this game. 😅 Will see what the next day brings. Hopefully some extra life and no ruined Apples and Pears.....

Fair play @Greboth, I just don't think I could spend time doing that...and knowing full well I'd screw it up too 😅 If there are replacement parts for the most common areas that gto wrong, then this controller might not be all bad. The £20 replacement sticks make it sound like it may be something that we could work with.

Merged your new topic @LordBaguette with the one that's already going 👍

How will this work @phil bottle? Do we get to see ourselves on the map this time round?

And funnily enough you're the reason why its getting remade in the hope you'll buy it! 😅

Looks insane, very unique. I think the combat may be a struggle but more because they explained you don't actually have a gun as per se. Its about using the environment in a strange way and feels more stealthy. Also...wtf??! .....Hmmm....

Last week was actually a close battle. My most consistent race for a while too, I led for a good few laps and then stayed with Kiwi within 2 seconds until I went off track at the high looping corner which made it a scary last lap to retake Phil for second. Great to see @JBR-Kiwi back at the races, @LordBaguette having his most consistent race so far and @Bluebear and @slamminbones having a great battle throughout.

Trailer just in case no one has seen it as its not been on the thread yet.

The price feels insane. Probably because its a controller and we're still used to that type of money giving us more bang for our buck. I think I just sense they charge it because they can. The gaming market is evolving, gamers want more, so they develop more. And if SCUF and the Elite controller are already above the 150 mark, selling this for 210 won't bother them in the slightest. And as Chad says, people will still spend that money on them cos they can. I think the main challenge will be how sturdy and long will it last - reports of many Elite controllers having to be sent back within 6 months tells me this type of tech isn't as strong as we'd like it to be. Would love to own but game wise, not sure there is much pushing me towards it just yet....maybe if we end up rolling on CoD MW2 and OW2 hard then I'll consider it.

Saw SkillUp mention this on Twitter. Sounds really disappointing, more so because its just before the live launch. Sometimes games will struggle due to the base framework on how its been built but you must tell people way further ahead than a week away from launch. I would expect sales to be down on this somewhat now as you can already feel the 30 to 60 fps difference on some games we play today.

I still haven't had as I've not had much chance to try out new games, however 20% is decent for something like this. Whilst the reviews aren't all super amazing, i'd say for the first ever F1 Manager game to come out, it looks solid enough to buy it at discount. I expect them them to add more functionality in the next one they bring out, like multiplayer, but they'll learn from this one hopefully enough to keep this type of game going. Playstation or PC for people who are thinking of getting it?
