I've genuinely never tried them @Antpool84 , as they've never really been in the forefront of my mind. Are they small indie styled games or more just linear story driven campaigns?

F1 2021 is honestly a great buy but more so because it was far cheaper than a AAA price. I'm more so looking forward to trying out F1 2022 Manager than this as they'll be enough legs in 21 to get my racing fix for a while.

Yep, very alive and kicking. Cal @TheMuggySpud . Quite a lot of us do go back and forth on it too. Probably should do a tour of it one day so you know who is on it and what we've made so far. Would love to see you get a nice base on there bud!

Yep, completely crossplay @TheMuggySpud , would be great to catch up more regularly 😎 I've started my game on the PS5 over the past week to see how it goes. The colours are vibrant and i've enjoyed the part i've done so far. I can see you can lose quite a few hours into this by purely just scanning everything and lasering everything in sight. I'm no way near all this new Outlaw stuff I imagine. Loads of the intro stuff to do as its throwing the next stage of stuff to build for base building at the moment. The controls are fiddlier than expected on console, so might see what its like on PC too. Not sure why stuff needs filling and then I have to press x on it and then drag them into the relevant thing. Is the save crosssave too? How long does all the tutorial bits go on for btw? I really need to electricity and what to build so may need a separate thread on that one. Be good to share pics and whatnot on how your planet looks and what you've built so far too. And thanks @TurboR56Mini for getting a NMS PSN group set up whenever we need it on there. 👍

First night in on Tuesday for the FG DayZ server and it was great. Felt real good getting back into the baron wasteland and checking over places. Now one thing that seemed to be better feeling this time out on a Vanilla server game is that I didn't feel wholly lost even though our only server we've been on here in recent years was with a GPS and auto-run enabled. Using DayZ izurvive map, it took me a while but I could manage to find where I was going and by the end of the night, meet up with Phil and where the current makeshift base is. I think a few other randomers jumped on which was cool to know as thats what helps give DayZ that extra edge being a survival PvEvP map. The harshness also seems to be slightly better this time out but not too easy so it doesn't remove anything from the game. Playing DayZ on console Vanilla version just felt incredibly painful but this one feels like its testing, challenging but rewarding. I really need to watch a video for what we can build now. I loved our last build in a deep forest where we had constant wolves for danger/food purposes. Clearly, Cargo drops aren't a thing in Vanilla DayZ so we'll need to understand where we can find tents and more shelters. I think might start making a simplistic box base for now though. Even the makeshift leaves and twigs as a tent look really cool. Highlight was defo hearing Didds get eaten by Wolves 🤣 I think the rain was annoying AF just before we logged off as everytime we kept coming out of our hut, dried our clothes next to a fire, it would start raining again! It was just like England! GGs @phil bottle, @crispymorgan and @Diddums. I can feel we can make a real go of this server and also invite new people to it so we can see how we get on. Lets share pics where we can too.

Right now though and for the foreseeable future, both Man Utd and Spurs are in the same boat. In fact, Spurs are performing better as I can't see Man Utd finishing higher than them. Oh and re: Dier - i'm the last person to want to bash him. Back in the 2018 World Cup, I loved him. He was my number one pick on the pitch personally in the CDM role. He essentially paved the way for Rice and Phillips. Thing is, we know he personally wanted to drop back. I find that just the most curious decision of all, especially when he had a solid England place on the back of his CDM performances.

With FIFA 22 being made available for free as part of PS Plus next month, this just compounds the misery of what now is called 'The 💩 (Formely Known As PES)'.

Happy birthday Sarah!! @Zaxzar Hope you have a super awesome day mate!! 😎💃❤️

Have you got some info on the updated changes mate? I think many enjoyed it, it was more to keep up with the game and skill level, it felt like you needed a few nights a week on it to stay relevant.

Yeah, here's the visual leak of the games coming in May. I suppose it will help anyone in FG pick up FIFA 22 for the PS4 and want to join in with some FGFC games!?! Even could pick up and make a few little knockout fun tourneys too I reckon with more of us. Tribes of Midgard could definitely be something for more to try. I know that a few of us picked it up and I found it fun for a short while, defo needs to be played in a group. You can have up to 10 people in a playthrough too.

Agree with that. I suppose I just see how well he was doing at CDM, even for England but he pushed himself to go backwards which I just think opens you up a little bit more against top end teams.

How did you go on with this @McNasty ?

Keep sharing @Riff Machine , whilst i'm struggling to find anytime to listen or watch anything long these days, I love these will be here for all FGers to go back and watch.

I'm not sure who is wanting to spend 100m plus on him now. His chance was a great one to go to City and Levy blocked it by asking for 200m. It feels very much like the Gerrard situation when he nearly left to go to Chelsea but stayed for the rest of his career. Kiss of death me saying this, but finally I think Spurs have a top 3 who really do challenge Liverpool's...just need someone to tell Dier that he isn't a centreback and put him back at CDM alongside someone else 😅

Weirdly, Warzone isn't the worst thing they've made. MW2019 really did have something going for it but they chose to keep the yearly churning uncreative release going and I think the industry has started to grow tired of that type of release in general, not just CoD. People are now wanting to try something new or conversely staying with games that have had very longevity with constant support and updates. I think its why Indie games are doing so well too - people are finally seeing through the AAA yearly release of the same game for 70 quid....maybe. I do think Microsoft will revolutionise the franchise. Its what everyone knows it needs and it'll be interesting to see if it takes one of the last games of the past 5 years to use as its base to move forward instead of starting from scratch.

I missed our resident Gary @techno hamster's birthday whilst I was on holiday this weekend just gone so I hope he managed to take the bike out for a birthday breeze! 🚲😎🎂

Good question! The quick answer is, you can't 😅 However... On my plans was to create a page for Achievements and Medals. This would include the full list, with the exception if I had some that we felt that would be cool surprise ones. Outside of this, I have asked the software developer to understand if I can have any automation that could be connected to profiles related to showing what you have and/or haven't earned yet. Its a brand new system still in reality so I hope further tweaks but sometimes they take a little while as I have to rely on people way more skilled than me in that space. If you looked back at the original infographics I shared, they are all the ones I made available from Day 1. I need to plan a further phase at some point very soon but also would really hope to get some feedback from everyone as to how people think they are going. All I can see is that they were initially well received but not sure how much it helps people to see them or if they are fun to receive in any particular way.

Happy birfday bumper wrecker!! @Mikepjbell hope you have cracking day squire! 😎💃❤️
