Re: Skull & Bones PC

I've not believed in Ubi for years now. Their launcher on PC has to ask for admin permissions at least three times every time you launch it, and it's been broken like this for years. It may not be the biggest bug in the world, but it impacts affected users every single time they launch the shitty th...

Re: Skull & Bones PC

Some of my friends played the free weekend, their complaints were around bone-headed UI/UX (e.g. you have to clear enough inventory space free in your boat to place its armour in, and then immediately apply it to the ship leaving a big hole in your inventory – why not just have to immediately apply,...

Re: \m/ Metal \m/

I went a few years on the bounce. Was volunteer staff once or twice, and I won free tickets some of the years. At an online competition. ¬_¬ Anyway, I really like it! Very small, so no trekking for miles – big plus. I'd go more often if they had more bands that I like, and/or more mates than just on...

The literally had it perfect to start with! They have put a whole bunch of developer hours into making everything worse!
Sadly this happens bloody everywhere, not just in games. Besides, IOI are literally villains.

He's a winner, he deserves to be in a team that wins, Mercedes haven't delivered. I want to see him with 8 WC's.
And Ferrari have been looking really hot latel… no, wait!

People said the same of the Mercedes move, but this seems different somehow. I'm very sceptical, obvs.

Re: Currently Playing

I couldn't disagree more! I've never played any Pokemon games, but I've played Minecraft and Valheim a fair bit, and had a blast on a private Rust (I think?) server. Palworld is quite grindy at the start, but I've seen my friends' server and it gets pretty involved. I've got a single-player world on...

Re: Forum Bugs and Errors Reporting Thread

That might be a Chrome "feature" if you use that. Instead of doing any work to stop Chrome using all your RAM, they've started pausing (or something) the tabs you've not used in a while. I tend to leave all my forum tabs open, but I do restart my browser fairly often so they're not days old or anyth...

Re: Aaand, In Other News...

I've just driven through (Worcester) town for the first time since all the flooding started, it's abated enough that the council are on clean-up duty now. I'm really glad we live on a hill! Not the worst it's been, but the most-notable in some time. It's almost like the climate is somehow… changing?

Wheyyy, somebody else who knows WTF Letterkenny is!

Loved it, I thought the last season was a good send-off, too. Shoresy is good, but not the same.

Re: Currently Playing

Hell Let Loose Played one match yesterday and it was confusing, difficult and a tad frustrating. Good luck with that one – a bunch of my friends play it, but I absolutely cannot stand it. We call it "running and dying simulator". The maps are huge and you often spawn so far away from the action tha...

Re: Currently Playing

The Entropy Centre after a friend completed and recommended it. I've only just started this one, but first impressions a very good. The sound, visual, and computer character design is lovely. I'm looking forward to uncovering the mystery! Cool central device for the puzzles too — you rewind specifi...

Yeah, I think they've got super aggressive with needing a log in. I deleted my account last week.

Anyway, thanks for cluing me in - what an absolute nightmare!
