Re: What game are you playing
The forest introduced CO-OP multiplayer a while ago but like Stranded Deep, it doesn't really offer longetivity.
The Long Dark is good enough. Has animation style graphics and although I haven't finished it I believe it does have a point to it, seems the objective was to cross from one map to the other whilst staying alive, bears, the cold and whatnot are the problems in the way. Set in Northern Canada I think. Quite immersive. I remember an in game day which was far too cold to venture outside without freezing to death.
Subnautica is a survival game but offers something completely different and unique underwater base building and submarines.
DayZ of course is still out there but that'll never really leave early access and seems like a succesfull grab and run job with minimal updates per year compared to others in the same genre.
Rust is heavily updated weekly and is constantly changing. This is a proper alpha so buy at your own risk. Things are constantly being reset, wiped or removed, this is what game development should be.
H1Z1 is a generic Infestation clone, which is hilarious because Infestation is one of the worst games to ever be sold. H1Z1 however... Is awful too.
No Mans Sky - Space survival - One of the worst cases of Bait and switch I've seen in gaming. A truly awful game that's beyond just being broken with an extortionate price for what it actually is.
Not sure if I've missed any but played all the above and more.

Didnt know that about The Forest being co-op, been a while since I played it.
Dayz on the other hand is improving & working towards beta & I do believe we havnt been shafted by the developers, its just taking a lot longer than anticipated.

4 player COOP sub simulation (Realism) Demo version, full release is still miles away but is quite brilliant.
The demo is F2P and works for online play. Download is at the bottom of that page.
Gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dc3XpWqbKqc
Doesn't feel demanding on the rig, although it shouldn't on mine but I mean graphically it shouldn't cause much of an issue for those willing to give it a shot.
Also my SteamID is [G]Hydra[7] or Adzii

Re: What game are you playing
I played the BF1 beta.
Nothing there to make me run and buy the game.
No doubt it will be a clone of the others with people camping outside a base and spawnkilling, then tell you to learn to play better when you send them a snotty message.

Re: What game are you playing
It was a poor map to show imo,they just wanted to display the vehicles. The game looks good, the idea is good, I was just hoping for more trench warfare, absolute slug fests and DICE say that is coming. There will be 64 player trench maps for PC. Not sure if consoles pushed to 64 players.
About to download the freemium, Forza 6: Apex
In the meantime I'm dropping in on GTA IV for a replay of the base game and the quality DLC's, shame about the hassle getting it running though, GFWL was an absolute disaster on Microsoft's part. I do own GTA V though, two versions under one CD key, offline modded and my online account. In fact I have all of them, I bought GTA IV and V seperate but grabbed the rest including another GTA IV for a fiver, total bargain. Just a shame the fourth is utterly ruined by Microsoft's bollocks. It's playable eventually after you jump through the hoops they put in front of you.

Re: What game are you playing
I got Forza Apex running. It is what it says it is. Forza for the PC. All cars can be unlocked via gameplay too. IAP's are merely shortcuts akin to Battlefield rather than some really shady stuff. Good move Microsoft. A free Forza game, still beta yet so no customisation, limited tracks etc. I think this is a PC demo tbf in preoeration for a full priced release Forza 7 next year.
Anyway, Visually stunning. Engine sounds are terrific. Same gameplay I remembered from the 360 days. Rain and puddles are new to me but feel great.
Looking onwards to Horizon 3. Just not paying a ludicrous 80 quid to play it early.

Re: What game are you playing
I'm after Forza Horizon 3 Ultimate edition hard copy.
Game won't let me pre order as it's been released digitally and amazon are charging £134
So can any one recommended a place to buy it from online.

Re: What game are you playing
That'll be a later year buy for me this year. I'm done with it. I like that they've upgraded the game as such to warrant another £40 but I just don't feel like I liked the demo at all. I've ended up playing PES on PC as much as I'm ashamed to say because its different. That's probably why I'm enjoying it. Its a change. Plus it doesn't restrict me adding mods. Kitserver which adds every real life kit to every team in HD. Graphically I can make it better than FIFA thanks to dedicated modders, even usuable online. The online aspect is still very lacking to FIFA though.
Just a shame there's very little choice in this genre.
Still playing Rocket League. There's a lot of big developers that could take not from this. How to make a game 101 without robbing people at every chance. Optional cosmetic DLC with anything game changing being free, maps and modes being free. Also bundle plenty of free cosmetic DLC for free also. Definite game of the year contender.

Re: What game are you playing
I think one of the main things that sold the game this year was the story mode EA implemented
