US beating Uruguay is quite a big deal imo, looks like getting Poch as coach is finally coming good @Sennex
 
 

Went on with @Diddums Friday night and was amazed at his patience! 😃 
 
I'm enjoying it so far but have stuck to the Dam map mostly. Only been killed by another player once so far. As those of you who know me well I have died more than once ! 🤣
 
Main strategy so far has been to expand the stash as much as possible, unlock all the work benches.
 
It's a beautiful game to play, AAA at a bargain price and reminds me of Destiny in many ways... daily quests, scavenging, equipment upgrades, etc.
 
It'll be interesting to see how many FG players will use the wipe option.
 
I see Shroud is playing and topping the leaderboard but also discovering some sad news.....
 
 
 
I'll be getting on this when real life lets me.
 
Thanks again @Diddums ... he's your man for a dog collar for your chicken!! 🤣

In between feathering his own nest and fooling the weak minded, Trump has already threatened to remove world cup games from left leaning cities lol, what a prick 🙃

Cheers @Diddums. Last night was first full night on it and I'm finally getting it all. The playloop is great, just the UI doesn't initially help you in that fact.
 
I'd say one of the biggest things it doesn't tell you to do but to help you on your journey is to 'Track Resources' for all bench installs and level up upgrades. Its like extra mini objectives alongside the main quests the game gives you. Helps you then focus on specific loot rather than it all because there is absolutely shed loads the game gives you and you can feel like you are full within a minute of spawning in.
 
Its good to be in a group and share what things that people may need so we're all looking for 5-6 things on each run and we can share and help each other with whatever we all find. I love that bit about it all, way more objectives then and definitely better feeling than the 'I'm helping' meme in your head.

I finally managed to get in, so here's a last look at my character before I wipe him. I'm actually Level 43 but today's update to the game has put me down to 36 for some glitchy reason.
 
485 hours since 6 June and this will all be re-set to zero once I nuke the character to enjoy the new content.
 
I'd almost finished building my Hideout, but it's all going back to square one and I'm looking forward to playing with an actual storyline finally : )
 

New map is really weird - seems to be exclusively indoors.  I also ran into a lot of players along the way but thankfully everything was nice and peaceful. I think this place will encourage more PvP action so other areas will hopefully be less combative. I've had 12/12 extractions today and only go into one combat encounter.

£32.99 is not a bad price for a decent game and the videos look good - I'll have to give this serious consideration 

Fine.... Once things calm down over here, I will grab this...
 
we need more farm games with guns.

I kind of feel like Blackburn have turned a corner, at least on the pitch, I'm pretty ignorant about the rest.
 
As for the Prem, I did not foresee LFC having some major issues, it's definitely been a more interesting league the last couple of years. Just waiting for the Arse to bottle it again 🤭 Please.

Well, its international break again and good time to take stock.
 
Prem wise not sure how Sunderland have managed it, but they keep on flying high. Home form is so crucial and its a very intimidating place to go. So many teams having a stutter. Man City a small resurgence, Liverpool free falling. For once it does keep it very interesting week to week for sure. Can't see Wolves or Burnley staying up currently. Not enough in their teams for me. I'm loving watching Moyes take Everton up the table though. Decent team, some good English talent in them. I hope they make Europe.
 
Championship...ahh, well i'm trying hard not to think about it. Blackburn are in a sorry state, on and off the pitch. I don't know how the next few years will go tbh. I was probably hoping we could somehow be forgotten and sneak up the table. You never know as its far too early. Frank Lampard's Coventry City (IYKYK 😉) have been excellent upfront. Unless they start to bottle it, they should be now clear favourites...although their defence really haven't been tested and are pretty poor back there. I fancy Middlesborough still. Losing a Manager and still winning, thats tremendous value for money. A very good squad too. I think everyone else maybe in false positions. Lots of teams aren't performing well but have gathered points. I still wouldn't have put Sheff Utd, Southampton and a few other big names down the bottom though. Maybe Sheff Weds could pull off the unthinkable and stay up?

Ok so I've hit level 20, been playing every night since I bought it on Saturday. This game is basically e-crack. 
 
Anyway, I've learned quite a bit, some of it isn't in any of the millions of Youtube videos and I had to figure it out myself so I'll drop those pearls of wisdom all over bones' mum the thread.
 
Firstly, and this is imo one of the three biggest things to know about this game, is that you can drop in for any reason you want. Sometimes I'll just grab a free loadout, hoarde as much shit as I can and then extract. This is howI strongly suggest everyone start, as picking fights WILL lead to some of the most hilarious, devastating and embarrassing deaths. These robots are out to kill, and kill you they will. For your first hour or two, the free loadout will be your friend. You have nothing to lose so can go balls-to-the-wall with it, and if you die, nothing lost.
 
Secondly is the attitude towards loot. Loot is everywhere in this game. Find a building? Full of loot. Find a car? Could have loot. Kill a robot? Full of loot. Kill a dude? Full of loot. It's everywhere, and habit says that you need to hoarde as much as you can. Whilst this is good when you're running low on resources, you can also end up collecting a load of shit which isn't useful at that point in time. You'll also suffer from "gear fear", ie. dropping in and then getting killed, losing all your shit in the process. This hurts the first few times, but once you adjust your mentatlity to realise that you can hustle up most of that stuff again in a few rounds with a free loadout and it's all gravy. Don't be too precious about loot, you're gonna lose it anyway.
 
Thirdly is the unlocks and upgrades. Stuff like workbench upgrades, Scrappy upgrades, skills, etc are all permanent. These are your focus, the gear and loot is merely a way of getting there. 
 
Fourth is don't pick fights randomly. These robots are absolutely ruthless and WILL fuck you up if you're caught off guard or aggro then when you're not prepared. Even the tiny ones can be a pain in the ass and many will also call for backup, so make sure you're prepared before engaging. Rule no. 1 is never, ever engage out in the open, as they'll retaliate and your peace will be shattered in to a small little skirmish of death. Make sure you've got cover, make sure you've cleared out the room you're using as cover, and be aware of your surroundings.
 
I've got shitloads more but I'll leave it at this for now. There are also tons of third party resources which help a ton, I'll link to them later. 
 
Get on this game. It's bloody good and bloody entertaining. Often hilarious.

I've had about 4/4 successful extractions this evening but the last one was absolutely chaotic - I only went in to the Dam location to see if I can get some apricots for the chicken as part of the challenge but I ended up getting in several firefights. I downed a couple in a 3 way battle after craftily springing on the wounded ones and then evaded about 3 other battles in and around the water treatment extraction elevator which was very tense and I don't think anyone there wanted to lose their gear so we seemed to exit one at a time🤣
 
The experience is more chilled the earlier in the day but come the evening it's very PVP-heavy and nobody can be trusted.

Everyone's loving that voip interaction 🤣
 
 

I grabbed this and have really enjoyed it so far. Really refined game that looks great and runs incredibly well.  I've done just under 5 hours so far with 7 successful extractions in 8 attempts. I've only killed one human so far and have mostly just been focused on obtaining essential loot and doing a few quests. Unlocked the second location this evening and am currently level 6.
 
The action can be really tense at times but the most scariest thing about this game is the tumbleweed🤣
