Enjoying it? I love the look of it and would definitely give it a go but read it doesn't have much depth.

Pun intended?

Any new PS5 games coming out that may be included? And I don't mean Returnal.

Totally....yupp totally meant that :pac:..... I wish i was that clever...

Hood: Outlaws and Legends is out on the 7th, would be the best bet if they were going with something new.

Mr Crispy · 27-04-2021 10:14PM

Good shout on Hood - it's not a full price game (€30 I think?).

It's the first proper game to remind me of scuba diving, well for the first hour or so until you go into the real depths. Have played about 60+ hours into it solidly, although I'd say 45 of those are herself directing me down to find an array of creature eggs to populate the multitude of environments she'd constructed to rear them in. Fetching the crab squid eggs while dodging leviathans was intense

Ah thought you meant ye were playing Stranded Deep. Yupp, Subnautica is unreal.

Announcement tomorrow or wait til the State of Play?
Or neither like they did before and just announced late?

I see 2 games leaked are Stranded Deep and Battlefield V

I had PS Now for a very short time and downloaded Stranded Deep (its very Castaway) and it made my digital PS5 absolutely whine like I had never heard so I uninstalled it again.

A quick google shows its a common problem.

Wreckfest! Awesome

Zero-Cool · 28-04-2021 04:35PM

Nice, happy out with Wreckfest and Stranded Deep. Sucky month for ps now users though.

bmorrissey · 28-04-2021 04:37PM

Played them all on PS now, a disappointing month. But still have many hours of playtime from last months games alone so its not all bad

Edit: Just noticed wreckfest is PS5

Jordan 199 · 28-04-2021 04:38PM

Would be cool to have an online Boardsie Wreckfest Bash!

WarZoneBrother · 28-04-2021 04:38PM

My ps now subscription renewed just yesterday.... What a waste of time that subscription has become

Definitely game, make a break from the seriousness of the FIA gran turismo series

This is a regular occurrence now, very annoying.

JimBurnley · 28-04-2021 05:01PM

Good month for me. Wreckfest is great fun, have it on psnow but that finishes on there soon so be good to own the ps5 version. Other two are ones I might have a passing interest but not enough to buy, so ideal to try risk free on plus

Varik · 28-04-2021 05:05PM

The type of service that Plus and Now are is very different.

I don't have Now but I think if i wasn't getting it mostly for older games I'd sub on and off.

Zero-Cool · 28-04-2021 05:48PM

Actually looks like a lot of fun. Would definitely be on for a few boardsie races of private lobbies can be setup?

Jordan 199 · 28-04-2021 06:18PM

^ It would be great if PS4 players could join the same lobby as PS5 players. If not then I'll be out in the cold.

martyos121 · 28-04-2021 06:27PM

Glad I watched that review, it looks unreal! I would’ve easily dismissed that as another by-the-numbers, cheaply made destruction derby game without giving it a proper look but the graphics are gorgeous and the gameplay looks incredibly fun.

Will definitely be giving that one a lash.

I think that review was of ps4 version as well. Apparently the ps5 version is 4k 60fps with extra graphical details and 24 car lobbies.

Actually i just read the ps5 version will be available in June as a 10 dollar upgrade. Bit confused now, is the release date moved to meet May ps plus?

Edit: yeah looks like the PS5 version was moved from 1st June to 4th May, nice.

They ought to just combine them at this stage. It is getting a bit annoying of games on one and joining the other.

Is it pad or wheel? I've my 4 set up with my wheel and my 5 is elsewhere

The Phantom Pain · 28-04-2021 09:40PM

I can't remember the last time when there was something on Plus that I didn't already own. I suppose that's a sign that last gen is really winding down now.

Revoker88 · 28-04-2021 10:21PM

Wreckfest is good but the track variety hurt it for me after not to long.

Battlefield is very meh but might be a good boon for people still playing it.

Don't know much about stranded deep tbh other than its another survival game with building mechanics.

Played a bit of Valheim recently so doubt I be up for a game of that type again for a bit. Too many games in the genre make doing anything too grindy,Ark for instance,I like that game but basic gathering of supplies is just a pain and Valheim has shown it doesn't need to be that way to keep the survival feel. Don't want creative mode but also don't want to spend hours doing mundane chores like gathering stone.

J Mysterio · 29-04-2021 04:36PM

Have Battlefield and Stranded Deep, but Wreckfest looks great fun, hadn't heard of it.

Potential-Monke · 29-04-2021 06:55PM

Didn't know Wreckfest was getting a PS5 update, will definitely try it again. I've done all I can as a single player in it, abs they do have pay to win cars for sale, so when I was playing MP there wasn't a hope of winning. Will still give it another blast though, its the closest to Destruction Derby since Destruction Derby 2.
