Gaming PlayStation 5

[Irwin99]

This is, very comfortably, the worst gaming generation in my lifetime, imo.

I did think this gen might end with some really great titles and it still might, but I can understand why people are disappointed. It’s kind of sad that the haptic feedback controller gimmick has only really been implemented brilliantly with Astro Bot.

Question for you guys: Obviously you are both on PS5 playing SE:5, I've just started playing co-op with my youngest (Xbox - Steam crossplay) and there is often voice issues and occasional shot lag. Are your servers fine, or do you get the occasional issues?

Oh and invasion is such great fun, shame you can't 2v2 doing it.

Never had any major issues with shot lag or voice issues.

Last session we had the other week had a couple lag spikes and game dropped out twice I think but that's basically it in all our time playing it I think. Other than that has been spot on.

Hopefully the server issues get sorted so you can enjoy it in all it's glory. Also tip: the best load out has you carrying 3 grenades

2vs2 invasions would be hilarious and pure chaos. Some players are absolute beasts on invasion, they just know everything, and are in your head knowing what you're doing instantly.

Phenomenal game for coop.

Agree - haven’t had any issue with shot lag. Had some issue with lack of ability though….

Although you can’t do 2vs2 invasion, you could probably setup one of the other game modes and have a team deathmatch?

Also, on Axis, you can send a friend a code of the game you are playing so they can invade your game I think. So if we were doing a coop game, then potentially you could invade (and think it works cross platform too).

Worth a try!

But yep - absolutely fantastic game and can’t wait for the SE Resistance on Tuesday!

Why? You really want to show redlambs our pure lack of skill and intelligence?

I'm off work Tuesday and Wed too

We've had a lot of power cuts recently, and my 4tb external HDD for my PS5 has bit the ghost.

Really upset. Don't think I can justify a UPS, but definitely tempted. Course most of the power cuts have been when the PS5 was in rest mode (but not all) so I should probably shut it down properly if they're going to keep happening.

Yeah, it's a great series and 5 is really under rated amongst the masses.

Though I do still maintain the sniping is too easy. "Authentic" really should feel like you deserve the shot.

Oh, I'm not who you have to worry about.

In fact, I would pretty soon defect to your side and try to 3v1 the little shit

@Redlambs me and swoosh having a few issues tonight of crashing out of game, and a bit of lag. Weird as hell as always been mega stable till this point.

Guess it's something to do with the new game and doing something with the servers. Quite annoying

Edit: also, highly recommend the DLC levels, they're brilliant. Much improved over the base game, we've played 3 of them so far and all have been great.

Landing Force my favourite so far. So many positions to take up and ways to go

Yep – really good map that! Would be a good one to try multiplayer on!
