General Videogame Thread

That's absolutely brilliant and an outstanding achievement. Fair fucking play!
Cheers bud, it’s weird how you can stumble quite randomly into a hobby at 41 that you appear to have some talent for. Main thing is I enjoy it anyway and I was enjoying it 10 months ago when I started and was pretty poor.
 
Very excited, just checked the records so far and I out qualified Alonso, I’ve beaten him before using the draft but never beaten him on an open track before. This is why the Vees are great, it’s the one most of the F1 drivers race on as the racing is so close.

Haha that is insane, if you're too tall to be a F1 driver could always join the police on the motorways.
 
Starfield lvl 19 and just lost my whole game to a failed to save bug which has apparently been around since game launch...fml the computer is close to going through the window

Yeah but when you restart the game you know a lot more and what to do early in the game!

Played around 28 hours now level 12 still slow going! Still in the frontier ship which is a bag of shit even with update, jumping into full on space battle I can't handle, so two story lines I have to keep on the back burner..

Overall loving the game and I just got to be patient, it will all come and get done..

Do The Mantis quest. That gets you great gear and a really good Ship for free. I did it at level 10

Yeah I ended up buying a ship and spending all my money before realising you get one through a quest that's good, deffo won't waste as many pick locks now I know what I'm doing
 
Just read up about NG+ on Starfield, I may well just do the main story and not ship building etc until my second play through, although I can’t see me doing it multiple times.

I've done exactly that but didn't want to post about it. It certainly has its bonuses

I'll add as well, you keep your level and skills but you lose everything else. But it's explained why. It's pretty fucking mind blowing and why it's possibly the best writing ever in a video game.
 
If you can put those times in consistently you’ll absolutely smash the lower splits that you’ll be starting in (rookies start on 1,350 iR but you can see the eating until you’ve progressed to D license). Those times would see you moving up through the spots fairly quickly.

I just took pole in top split with a 1:37.35 and ended up winning by about 30 seconds. Most were in the high 1:38’s to the low 1:40’s so as someone new to iRacing you’re up there straight away.

Yeah it's the consistency now (for every 39 there's a 41) but enjoying working on it. The rookie lobbies are quite fun dodging the madness, I decided to hang back in the 2 I've done so far in quali. First 2 laps with lower tyre pressures are the bugbear now, I know to be easier on em but haven't quite mastered it just yet. Same again tomorrow.

Glad to read it leaves off the worst week as I have some friends visiting for the Charlotte series.

I can really see how it grabs people in.

I know I've said this on your youtube, but just wanted to add a comment on there "for the algorithm"

Can I request posts about NG+ be put in spoiler boxes so those of us that want to be surprised by it can still participate in the thread?

(Note: I blindly scrolled down through this page when I first saw the topic pop up so as to avoid accidentally reading about it, so apologies if no spoilers were shared.)

And oh my I wish there was some tolerance, had to take a corner cut slow down for this....

 
Has anybody on here played snow runner? I'm finding as I'm getting older, I'm leaning more towards therapeutic games. Looks quite a chilled game but does it get repetitive?

Yes I have because I'm a massive nerd, it's okay but not a patch on Euro truck simulator but the key to euro truck simulator is pro mods, the extras that you get from it make the game huge, it's a great chill out game listening to the in game radios
