    Back on the "every man for himself point", I did see some footage of SpecOps where even then the group simply didn't communicate and coordinate their actions.  ....and then they talked about how hard the mode was.  ....smh.

    That's because the majority of people who play CoD don't play the way GR players do and that won't change just because Breakpoint ended up a dud.

  2. I disagree, a game can be too realistic. For example, if the next CoD only allowed you to play only until you died, then every further attempt resulted in a screen saying "You've died, so you can't play anymore. Ever. Not even any future games we make because you're dead. You wanted realism? Well, there you go. Hahahaha! - Activision" See? That would be way too realistic.

     I honestly don't see a reason to open a Stadia sub forum at this time simply because there really hasn't been a lot of interest shown around here.  ......but like I said, let's see how it goes and what the owner wants to do.

    If we don't already have separate forums for PS4 and Xbox, I don't see why one for Stadia would be warranted.

    I think you would be fine. I know people on plans that offer less and they do more than you and they get by for the month. Are you locked into a contract with this? 

    Yeah, but only for a year rather than two years like other companies. It's the same provider I had before I moved, but instead of actually moving my service they felt it would be better just to cancel it and start a new account because reasons. 🙄 They've been a real sh*t show ever since I moved, no-showing multiple install appointments and giving me the runaround on the phone to the point where I had to drive 40 miles to their nearest physical office and file a BBB complaint to get the ball rolling.

    Like I said, though, they have an unlimited data allowance I can tack on if need be and there's another provider in the area which I can fall back on and offers unlimited data, but can't afford their installation fee right now. And their price wouldn't be much different than if I just added the unlimited data allowance to my current service anyway, so it doesn't seem worthwhile to change.

  5. An extremely rough estimate of my usual activities came out at 142.72 gigs. I talked with a rep from my provider who said 250 should be more than enough for what I use it for, but I'm taking that with a grain of sand as he, you know, works for the company and has a vested interest in telling me what he thinks I want to hear. They do have an unlimited data allowance I can add on and am looking into.

    The last season will be out next year and they are going back to how it was originally for the final season. I don't want to give out spoilers but I will be happy about this. I wasn't a bit fan of the "slight spin offs". I did love this crossover episode though. I forgot that the voice actor did both Bob and Archer. 

    I didn't care much for Dreamland, but I really liked Danger Island and 1999. I didn't know about it being renewed another season, though. I'd read that Reed was "open" to it, but that was it.

    I watched someone do that in a video and saw that it works myself. When was this done though, by the member on here? I ask because there have been several updates and they could have changed something to prevent this, you never know with R*. 

    It was earlier this year. I'm working on a new save that is going to replace my current "main" save (I managed to study, track, and skin every animal on Guarma, which I didn't do in the other one), so I figure if I ever have a chance of reaching 100%, it's on that save. Here's the thread.

    PS5 for me.  I've always been quite happy with their consoles regarding quality, etc. The biggest ding for me was not being backward compatible but that's changing with the PS5 and is also another reason I would want to stick with Sony. ....so I play some of these same titles I already purchased on my PS4 on the more powerful PS5.

    The loss of backwards compatibility was certainly a hit, but to be fair, it also drove the PS4's price sky high. Supposedly, at least. What I like most is the controllers (or at least the official Sony ones), which are just the right size and shape as opposed to Xbox's too bulky controllers and GameCube's far too square controllers.

  9. I was recently forced to move unexpectedly and my current location doesn't have access to the Wifi-based TV service that I previously had which allowed me the unlimited data cap, so my current Internet service is capped at 250 gigs a month. I've been searching online for an idea based on what I normally do for a bit now, but haven't found a clear answer. Basically, my online life is:

    * Forums like this.

    *Usual Internet stuff like emailing, web surfing, and such.

    *Watching YouTube, maybe around 10 videos a day on average. Sometimes I'll go days without watching anything. Nothing excessive.

    *Netflix and Hulu, on average four to five hours a day but sometimes going days without watching anything, much like YouTube.

    *Typical video game stuff (aside from online gameplay) like downloading patches, updates, and DLC (and I don't buy any excessive amounts of DLC either, but sometimes those annoying 20 gig "hotfixes" do pop up). Consoles are always hooked up to WiFi, though.

    So, based on this, can anyone give me a ballpark estimate as to whether a 250 gig cap will pose issues for me?

  10. Archer actually had a crossover episode with Bob’s Burgers, but only Linda was voiced in it since I guess the actors for Louise, Gene (who is awesome, BTW), and Tina were’t available. I’d always hoped they’d do another, but with how Archer has a different theme every season now, I don’t think it’s likely.

  11. I'm probably not in a financial position to get either one right now. Gramps cut off my oil money allowance because I spent too much trying to nail Ariana Grande.

    No, that last part's a joke, though I wish it weren't. Ariana would be defenseless to my charms. 😋 But finances are tight for me because I had to move unexpectedly and I'm not sure I can even afford TV service right now, much less a new game console.

  12. There's one mission where Abigail asks you to take Jack and do something with him. It occurs pretty early at the Horseshoe Overlook camp. It's not a random bit of conversation with her. Just keep doing missions and it will come up. I'd check my guide for when it becomes available, but it's packed away right now.

  13. SWAT just began it’s third season a few weeks ago and it’s good. SEAL Team is also really good. They air back to back on either Tuesday or Wednesday nights (I have no TV service right now to confirm which).

    On the animated side, Bob’s Burgers is a winner in my book.
