Rumours circulating that Microsoft may be about to buy Activision. For the small sum of $70 billion. o_O

Racing Ai is so 1997. Hopefully they've done something with the handling model in GT 7 as the one in GT Sport is "unique". Feels absolutely feck all like driving a real car. I'd love if they've taken the best from iRacing and ACC and came out with the perfect mix.

Finally my sim rig/cockpit is complete. Started ordering the bits around Christmas time and on Friday the cockpit finally arrived (In many heavy and big boxes). New McLaren GT wheel also arrived on Friday despite the pre-orders being for February. Its very cool. Just need a longer DP (for the...

Dunno if the cheat makers have finally mastered their software, but last night was rife with cheaters. People making no attempts to hide it either. Thoroughly demoralising.

Anyone that buys a digital game does so after “reading” the small print. It’s clear as day. If you download it, you ain’t getting a refund. Steams small print allows one to “try” a game for less than 2 hours and has to option to refund. I have used this function because I knew when buying I...

I certainly don’t get the “streamer hate” towards the Pacific map. I find it quite enjoyable, though in its current form will never be as fondly remembered as Verdansk.

UPS website says my wheel will be delivered tomorrow. I'm hoping thats accurate but it only left Stanford Le-Hope at 2100 tonight. Long old trek up to Glasgow from there.

Get those cables tidied up. I've spent a small fortune this last week on wheel, pedal, rig and monitor mounts. ;) We won't tell the Mrs.

I wouldn’t have bought anything without the RAM tbh. Your warranty is whittling away whilst not getting any use out of any of it. It could be months before you are able to get DDR5. Also, unless you get the greater than 7000 kit good DDR4 is just as good but for a fraction of the cost

Yes. Can’t find DDR5 anywhere and when it comes available the pricing is ridiculous.

Did you get Discord yet? Game chat doesn't work on BF so without Discord you won't be talking to anyone.

This is COD. They will not nerf it straight away. They'll want people to buy Vanguard so they can level it up faster for Warzone. Only once people have spunked money to unlock and level it up will they nerf it.

Watched all of these yesterday and today and thoroughly enjoyed it. I never had the OG Xbox (I had a PS2 by then) but did manage to bag a launch day Xbox 360. Absolutely loved that thing and think I was one of the very few people on the planet to never have the RROD. I only got rid of it when I...

Anyone on today?

It was indeed good (when Krampfus) wasn’t ruining it for us (which happens way way too much). Getting to play with levelled up guns makes a huge difference to, though I’ve still got a long way to go before I’ve got the really good ones unlocked enough to use.

I keep getting Dev Error 6456 when loading up this POS game. Turns out it’s because I have Discord running in the background? Closing Discord does fix it but definitely less than ideal.

So I find myself back in an ATX setup due to guff Bios' on the only available Z690 itx motherboard. Jack (My son) is rocking my old setup (8700k and 2080Ti) in the Coolermaster NR200P whilst I'm back in my old Phanteks P600 case with a 12700k and 3090. Got myself some unicorn vommit (RGB) fans...

Nice one. I'll join yous then. This little barstewart means I'm off work (At least tomorrow until my PCR test comes back) so will be on for a good bit.

Anyone on this tonight?

https://discord.com/ Download it and sign up. Its what we PC folks use to talk to one-another.

You need to get Discord. I've been on this afternoon but didn't see anyone online.

Like most games nowadays, they are made for the “headless chicken” that can’t/doesn’t want to have to think for themselves.

Do people play Vanguard mode only though? Surely the all out would be better (All the guns)? The only people that’ll do Vanguard only are the sweaty yards that bought it just to level up the Vanguard guns?

Ricochet doesn't work apparently. Teep (Some Optic Pro) got done yesterday after the anti-cheat "went live". Who'd have thought it eh?

Yup. Apparently the 2 of them have contacts with Activision/somewhere. They reported it and within minutes the guy was banned.

Thats good. I seen a video of The Doc and Zlaner getting killed by then reporting a cheater who got banned whilst they were streaming. He wasn't trying to hide anything.

I see cheaters are still about. Anti cheat still only out in Asia.

Not really. Anyone buying into a new platform should be going Z690 as it’s the best at the moment. 12600k or 127-0k is all the processor anyone would need for the next 4 to 5 years. Pair it with some “cheap” quick DDR4 ram and its a beast. DDR5 not worth it at the moment.

Pacific trailer:

I'm struggling to "get into this" tbh. Its the first Horizon that I've been this way with. The only thing I find myself doing is the seasonal events. I do just enough to get enough points for the 2 reward cars and that it. Everything else just seems a bit meh! Also doesn't run that great on PC.
