Idk, I have lots of clips of bullshit kills. I see it a lot in squads when I'm running solo. Kill cams are a godsend now though so its easy to go "oh yep, hacks".

A small chunk of my top 10 games end with me getting domed inside a building that has zero LOS anywhere. Its enough that I cannot at all take this game seriously. I mean, its bad enough the netcode still is garbage and you'll die behind cover.

I agree, Its not THAT bad though. Id gather I run into 1 a night, max. Assuming I play for more than an hour or two anyways.

Ive used "a lot" a lot. I mean that compared to other games.

ALSO LOL if you think cheat engine isnt being used on fortnite and other stuff.

It's ok.

I Just got a chicken dinner in pubg in solo. My first win, I've never shouted yes after winning a game before but I was so excited I'm sure the neighbors heard it. Feelsgoodman.

Although tacky and it taking up a huge amount of space I've seen a similar install where the guy had removed the passenger side but kept the center console and insturment panel like the picture below. Pretty neat setup! I think he also had his flat screen mounted where the windshield would normally be.

Picked up the new Civ 6 expansion, Rise & Fall, so started a new game last night. Really liking it so far, although 6 does still have those irrational AI moments in the early game when a bunch of civs will declare war on you for no apparent reason.

's okay though. I left it last night having bullied two of them in to peace and am in the process of teaching Robert the Bruce a valuable lesson about declaring war against England twice when we've been nothing but nice to them. I'm going to take two of his cities, raze one, then leave him with one, surround it and stifle his growth for the remainder of the game.

The AI still doesn't know how to fight back against naval assault :)

Never played Beyond Earth, but there's a lot to like with 6. The AI models and animations in particular are stunningly good.

They also shamelessly nicked a few ideas from the great Endless Legend, like city governors and districts.

The base game also came pretty much feature-complete in that it incorporated all of the features that 5 had after being expanded.

Interface is a bit gash mind you.

I hear the Dutch are a faction in Civ6 now. Who's their leader? Willem van Oranje?

For a change. Every Civ had Willem van Oranje as their Dutch leader. Especially in Civ4 which had multiple leaders per Civ the Dutch were shafted with just one.

ps Wilhelmina was a badass.

I honestly know nothing about her, but I'm sure Civ will pique my interest at some point and get me to at least read her Wiki page.

I watched a Let's Play of it to see what it was about. This guy playing was so amusing that I was totally engrossed with it and ended up watching the whole thing from start to finish.

It looks amazing. The atmosphere is so good and many of the game play ideas are really original. I do think, however, that if I had bought the game and played it on my own I would've found it greatly frustrating. I'm terrible at figuring out puzzles like what this game throws at you.

my heart was about to fail. I find the trick that really helps in the last circle is stripping your kit off and going prone.
