This could be the first series on Apple TV+ that is genuinely very, very good.

First four episodes were great. The way it was all tied up in the end didn’t really work in a satisfactory way.

Finally got to see the last episode tonight. I did kind of wonder up until this point how they where getting 5 seasons out of this show. I totally get it now, bring it on.

I’ve watched the first 6 episodes and absolutely love this. It’s the closest thing I’ve ever seen that’s reminiscent of Lost but obviously it’s far more ‘adult’. The people behind this did Narcos so clearly they’ve got quite the pedigree.

Don't Look Up is fantastic. Possibly the best film I've watched this year, watched on the last day of the year.

Took me 8 days to get it all watched. Absolutely brilliant from start to finish. It’s so good I’d put it in the same category as Breaking Bad, Succession, The Wire etc. The tension in those final scenes was off the chart.

They've moved on to make a Griselda Blanco series for Netflix. She was a big deal in Escobar's time but never featured in the original series for some reason. Narcos is done.

I thought this was ok. Nowhere near as bad as some in this thread have made it out to be. The original film was a classic and it's been downhill ever since. The sequels and 'reboot' are significantly flawed but they are at least watchable to some extent. This new film had a bloated runtime. It could have been made a bit leaner and would have been better for it. Nonetheless it's certainly far from perfect but 2 & 3 were no different.

Thanks for the recommendation. Just started this, it appears to be exactly my kind of thing.

I’m only seeing about 10fps difference between them.

The 128 player conquest maps have been clearly labelled in game as 'Large Conquest' from the start. Presumably 'Conquest' always was going to arrive at some stage.

Two episodes down. Can’t disagree, this is really captivating.

I was contacted by EA to complete a BF2042 survey. Took forever to do and as I appear to be the only person alive that enjoys the game I’m probably not the ideal candidate to provide them with information. I’m on PS5 with cross play turned off so perhaps that has some bearing on my enjoyment of the game.

The bug that prevents me from changing my weapon is still there.

I’ve played a lot of this now (beta / pre release / full release) and I’m enjoying it a lot. Once you get past learning the huge maps and certain weapons that need fixed by the devs it’s actually really good. The diversity of being able to fine tune an operator and / or their weapon was a decent design choice. Getting away from K / D and scoreboards is inspired. Makes it feel like a team game, as in a giant team. There’s a battle to be won and that’s the main thing ultimately. Visually it looks great on PS5. PC version is still completely terrible for me. Never did get acceptable performance for long. It’s now worse and barely loads without a multitude of problems.
