Fallout 76 Public Events Changes Inbound With Patch 13

by Jamie Moorcroft-Sharp

September 5, 2019 12:28 pm in News

Bethesda has revealed Fallout 76 Public Event changes which will hit the game with Patch 13, an update due out next Tuesday. The updates to Public Events are based completely on player feedback, and as such they should please the community as a whole with both changes to UI and mechanics.

Bethesda has taken a number of multiplayer-focused events from fallout 76 and recategorised them as Public Events. The reason they’ve done this is to differentiate them from the rest of the game’s events, and update them with new mechanics and UI. From next Tuesday onwards, all Public Events will be free to fast travel to from the map in Fallout 76. Usually there is a cost in Caps, the game’s premium currency, to fast travel to locations, but Public Events won’t have this cost. The reason for this, Bethesda says, is that players were complaining about fast travelling to an event, only to see it end before they can join, but still get charged for that travel.

The new UI for Public Events is below, check it out and read on.

The new UI is designed to provide enough information for players to make an informed decision over whether they should join the event. The difficulty indicator helps them out if they’re looking for harder tasks, or they’re too low a level, while the type helps them farm certain events for particular rewards. The number of participants is also helpful, because certain events may be impossible with too few players, and the timer gives players a good indication of whether the event will be almost complete, or freshly started. The images for each event are designed to help players identify the specific event within its type, so for this one it’s most likely a Scorchbeast encounter.

In addition to the new UI, players will also have more information about Public Events in the form of announcements. Players under level 7, or those in Vaults, won’t get these announcements, but all other payers will. This should help those players who want to farm Public Events do so.

Public Event Changes

Bethesda is implementing some new mechanics for Public Events. First of all, players no longer drop their junk when they die in a Public Event. Instead their respawn timer will grow with each death, until it reaches the maximum of 20 seconds. Second, Public Events won’t be triggered by entering the area anymore, now players have to make an action. These actions vary from turning on the boilers for Tea Time, to finding the Strangler Heart for Heart of the Swamp. If no one interacts with the event within the time limit, it will time out. The final change is that only one Public Event will now ever be active at once. Before there were timers for each separate event, but Public Events all work off of one single timer to ensure they are rotated correctly, and to push all players to a single event.

Public Events

All of the above changes are being made to the following events.

Campfire Tales
Distinguished Guests
Encryptid
Feed the People
Free Range
Guided Meditation
Heart of the Swamp
Jail Break
Line in the Sand
Lode Bearing
One Violent Night
Path to Enlightenment
Project Paradise
Scorched Earth
Swarm of Suitors
Tea Time
Uranium Fever

In addition to the above, older events such as Fasnacht and Meat Week have been retrofitted with the changes. This is a good indicator that the events will return in the future.

These changes to Public Events are a great step in the right direction from Bethesda. Many players are sick of how the UI looks, and how many systems work at the moment in Fallout 76. Making changes such as these, based on player feedback, will only server to please the community and build up their confidence in the company behind Fallout 76.

Death Stranding Difficulty Options Confirmed, Game Receives Australia Rating

by James Lara

8:40 am in News

Death Stranding difficulty options have been confirmed as play-tests begins to wrap up, along with an official classification from the Australian rating board.

Taking to Twitter, Kojima’s own personal assistant, Ayako Terashima confirmed that she has completed a play test of Death Stranding, giving us some new bits of information including the confirmation that the game will feature difficulty selection. Do mind that the translation is done by google translator so it’s not a perfect translation, but it’s clear enough to understand.

From the tweet above, we know the game will feature very easy, normal, and hard. We most likely will see more options as typically with a very easy option there is usually a standard easy option, though again this could be a translation or language barrier issue.

Small Update: Kojima has decided to give a bit more information stating that Very Easy was added and that Easy is also an option

And in related news, the Australian Classification Board has also given the game an official M+15 Rating in Australia. The breakdown of the score can be found below, but this certainly is a good indication that the game is currently being played outside of the development team and we will most likely see an ESRB rating announcement real soon. An interesting, yet possible error is that the board is also labeling the game as a multi-platform.

For the longest time, it has been rumored that the title would be releasing on PC. This rumor first began when the game was announced as a PS4 and PC title only for the PC version to suddenly vanish from any of the marketing material. It’s still unknown if it will launch on PC at this time, though many have speculated that this will most likely not be the case since the game is using first party tools from Sony.

We’ll be sure to keep you all updated on all things Death Stranding related. For now we have TGS to look forward to for a new gameplay trailer.

Gran Turismo Sport Update 1.44 Patch Notes and File Size Info Skids Out

by Alex Co

7:55 am in News

While Polyphony Digital just released a Gran Turismo Sport patch last week (version 1.43), the studio has today released Gran Turismo Sport update 1.44, though this one has significantly less impact since it’s more for bug fixes. Clocking in at just 108MB, check out the Gran Turismo Sport update 1.44 patch notes below.

Gran Turismo Sport update 1.44 patch notes:

An update for Gran Turismo Sport has been released.

Main Features Implemented

Localisation * Fixed an issue wherein the Thai language was not displayed properly in the Asian version.

Other Improvements and Adjustments

Various other issues have been addressed.

And if you were hoping this patch included the new track “Circuit De Spa-Francorchamps,” well, sad to say that’s not included. Most likely it’ll be part of the September update released in the last week of the month.

Hi-Rez Studios Announces New Multiplayer Shooter “Rogue Company,’ Watch the Trailer Now

by Alex Co

7:37 am in News

Hi-Rez Studios, the makers of Smite and Paladins, have announced a new game, and this one is all about multiplayer shooting! Titled “Rogue Company,” the game seems to be your traditional multiplayer shooter more than anything else.

Check out the Rogue Company announce trailer below.

According to the video, it’s a team-based, objective-focused shooter, which can be played in third-person. It will offer players the freedom to use characters that use guns, melee weapons, or gadgets. It seems to be locked in to 5v5 as well — at least for now.

Gamers can sign up for the alpha right here. According to the website, it’ll offer cross-play, cross-save across all platforms it’s set to be released on (PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC).

No release date yet for this one, but what do you think so far? It’s also not mentioned if it’ll be free-to-play, but given the studio’s history, don’t be surprised if it is.

by Alex Co

3:30 am in News

While there hasn’t been any significant updates to The Division 2 in the past few weeks, we do get the routine maintenance to sort the servers. Today, that’s happening again, as Ubisoft has announced thatThe Division 2 offline will be happening, and there will be an update to go with it!

The Division 2 offline schedule for maintenance:

Thursday, September 5:

9:30 AM CEST
3:30 AM EDT
12:30 AM PDT

Expected downtime: three hours

According to Ubisoft, “maintenance notes” will be provided during the downtime, which means that there will be a server-side update set to coincide with the maintenance, or an actual patch. If i had to guess, it’s the former, and once we know official details, we’ll let our readers know.

Also of note, we reported that the State of the Game livestream will be returning, but it has since been confirmed that it’s been postponed.

Battlefield 5 High Ping Issue at the Top of DICE’s Priority List, New Team Created Just for It

by Alex Co

5:48 pm in News

While we got a ton of new content from yesterday’s big Battlefield 5 patch, it seems one unintended side effect of it is that players are getting a Battlefield 5 high ping issue. Fortunately, DICE is on the case!

Over on Twitter, Battlefield Community Manager Freeman posted that DICE is aware of the Battlefield 5 high ping issue, and that they’ve created a team dedicated to getting it solved.

Time for a Check in on this High Ping Issue! #Battlefield

Today we created a team dedicated to getting this issue solved, and it's jumped straight to the top of our Priority list. We dont want folks stuck with this for long and I'll be providing regular updates on this all week. https://t.co/1o35HWjBAV

— Freeman (@PartWelsh) September 4, 2019

Also of note, it’s also mentioned that this could be a display issue (meaning what players are seeing is wrong), a location issue or something else.

A good day today!

We have but one issue that we're actively tracking relating to Pings on Servers. The team are actively investigating – it may be a display issue, it may be a connection issue, it may be a location issue.

Either way, its on us and we have teams looking into it

— Freeman (@PartWelsh) September 3, 2019

Let’s hope this gets resolved soon. Once we know more details, we’ll be sure to let our readers know.

Are you suffering through this now? From what I’ve played so far today, I did notice that my ping spiked to 90 on the in-game scoreboard, though I don’t think I noticed any significant performance issues, which leads me to believe that this could be a display thing.

Mortal Kombat 11 Forfeit Glitch Fix Found and Here’s How to Do It

by Alex Co

5:13 pm in News

Earlier today, we posted that NetherRealm has acknowledged and said that a Mortal Kombat 11 forfeit glitch fix will be released once the studio finds out how. While there’s no official fix yet, a rather resourceful player has found one, and it seems to be working based on player feedback!

Over on the Mortal Kombat subreddit, user YouHouSA1 has posted what appears to be an exploit to beat an exploit.

Sadly I’m not sure how it’s done on PC/Switch yet. however, the fix is triggered by enabling the “Splash screen”. that asks you for a new controller reconnection. It’s why it triggers on PS4. For XB1 however you need 2 controllers (or maybe just 1 if someone can test it).

Disconnect controller 1 to trigger splash screen

Connect controller 2 and hit B where it says “Take me to title screen”. It will say ENDING GAME but do not worry. That’s so the forfeit triggers for them.

It will go to title screen controller 2 will ask what profile to use. use the same one you have logged in for.

You will get your pts and your W and best of all, the opponent will eat the L and – points.

For those unaware, the Mortal Kombat 11 forfeit glitch is a thing happening now in the Kombat League where console and pc players are suffering from sore losers that can lock up the screen if they wanted to if they lost the first round. This would mean that the other player will be forced to quit the match thus taking the loss. Unfortunately, the timer doesn’t seem to help in this case as well.

Why do people do this? Given how some people take their online achievements, I can’t say I’m surprised anymore. Once NetherRealm rolls out a proper and official fix, we’ll be sure to let our readers know.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Gun Charms Confirmed to Be in the Game

by Alex Co

4:50 pm in News

It seems another one of Call of Duty’s customization options will be in Infinity Ward’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, and that’s Modern Warfare gun charms (weapon charms). This was confirmed earlier today by Amazon UK, which posted exclusive in-game bonus content for ordering through the online retailer.

The mentioned exclusive bonus digital content include: themed in-game emblem, an exclusive calling card, and of course, the aforementioned Modern Warfare gun charm!

Given this confirmation, I suspect this is another one of the ways Activision will somehow handle microtransactions in Modern Warfare. But hey, gun charms for microtransactions are better than weapons, right?

Let’s just hope that Infinity Ward makes it so that once you unlock it, you can equip it for all weapons, and not the way Treyarch did it for Black Ops 4.

Speaking of microtransactions, Infinity Ward says they’ll talk about it closer to launch, and that they’re pushing for a “player-first” system.

Black Desert Update PS4 Patch Notes Detailed – Here’s the New Content

by Alex Co

4:31 pm in News

If you’re a Black Desert Online player, and you game on PS4, a new Black Desert update PS4 patch has been released, and it includes two new characters, two PvP feature modes, and a new world boss.

Black Desert update PS4 patch notes:

Kzarka, the Lord of Corruption, has arrived as the new world boss within the world of Black Desert. Sealed within a shrine in Serendia centuries ago by sacred magic, a suspicious group is now attempting his resurrection. Those adventurers who defeat Kzarka have a chance of receiving yellow grade primary weapons.

One of the most beloved features of Black Desert, Node Wars, is now available as a weekly event and allows Guilds to engage in strategic combat over specific node locations until only one victor remains. Supporting 25 – 100 players, the victorious Guild will receive gold from part of the worldwide tax collection for the occupied node for that week.

In addition, guilds can participate in Conquest Wars, a weekly PvP mode that is larger in scale than Node Wars. Players are challenged with controlling the Balenos and Serendia territories by building Command Posts and defending their regions until there is just one Guild left standing. The victors can claim both the Balenos and Serendia territories, and will be awarded taxes from the entire region for that week.

EA FIFA Boss David Rutter Tapped to Oversee DICE, Criterion and Ghost Games

by Alex Co

3:39 pm in News

Here’s an interesting turn of events: David Rutter, the former head of FIFA and EA Sports Vancouver, has now been promoted to be the Group General Manager for EA Studios Europe, which includes Battlefield-developer DICE, Ghost Games and Criterion (Need for Speed studios, with Criterion working on Star Wars Battlefront 2’s Starfighter Assault mode).

Must-Read: Star Wars Battlefront 2 Loot Box Controversy Caused DICE to Hit “Rock Bottom,” Player Sentiment Now Rising Says DICE

Here’s EA’s official statement on Rutter’s recent promotion:

David Rutter has moved to Europe and taken on the role of Group General Manager for EA Studios Europe to lead our creators at DICE Stockholm, Ghost and Criterion. For the last 12 years, David has led our FIFA franchise and EA SPORTS development teams at EA Vancouver and EA Romania to amazing success.

Rutter, who joined EA back in 2007 as a producer in FIFA 2009, was the person who reinvigorated the FIFA franchise who was then trailing Konami’s Pro Evolution Scocer (PES) franchise. Rutter is also attributed to having a significant involvement in FIFA’s lucrative Ultimate Team mode. Not familiar with Ultimate Team? It’s a mode where players can purchase individual FIFA Ultimate Team packs using in-game currency or FIFA points, which can be bought with cash. This business model proved to be so successful that FIFA Ultimate Team sales accounted for 28 percent of EA’s total revenue.

Will we see Battlefield Ultimate Packs sometime soon? Given the controversy that happened with Battlefront 2, I hope EA learned its lesson.

New Splinter Cell Game Possibly Revealed in GameStop Product Listing

by Jamie Moorcroft-Sharp

3:00 pm in News

While Ubisoft has already explained why we haven’t seen a new Splinter Cell game, it seems the rumors just won’t die down. A GameStop product listing has inadvertently revealed a new Splinter Cell game through the product description. The listing itself was for a set of the iconic Sam Fisher goggles, seen in all Splinter Cell titles, which has now been removed from GameStop’s website. Check out the image of the product listing below and read on for more details.

The listing in question used to be live here. But the URL is now dead, and the product is nowhere to be seen on GameStop’s website. It’s likely that GameStop employees were testing the arrangement of images and text on their website without realising that they were working on the live version, or if they did, then they hoped no one would notice. Unlucky for them, a Reddit user was able to snag a screenshot before the listing disappeared.

The product listing text read as follows. “For the first time since the introduction of Splinter Cell in 2002, after nine top-selling AAA+ titles, and with the 10th release on the horizon, this is your first chance to own Sam Fisher’s signature Ultra High-Frequency Sonar Goggles.” As you’ve no doubt noticed, the description references an upcoming Splinter Cell title ‘on the horizon’, yet Ubisoft hasn’t announced a new Splinter Cell game.

We’ve reached out to Ubisoft for a comment and will update the post if and when we get a reply.

Research Paper Help to Provide Helpful Prompts

by Alex Co

1:15 pm in News

Many students struggle with their academic assignments. Every assignment is unique and has its own purpose. It messes up the minds of youngsters and some of them simply grow desperate. Nevertheless, they ought to find some way out. Many students try to resolve their problems with some trustworthy research paper writing service.

They ask – What service can do for me my essay in English? A dependable research paper writing service is able to write all types of assignments and meet any demand you set. However, students are supposed to complete most tasks on their own. Otherwise, they’ll get addicted to online support and won’t develop their writing skills.

We offer you research help. This guide highlights a few important prompts that will help to tackle your assignments better. Mind that these are not recommendations about how to choose a topic or write a conclusion. We can bet you already know a lot about them. We have decided to review the issue of writing papers from a different angle.

Make it plain

Too many writers turn their papers into a real mess. Trying to be overly scientific, they use many specific terms and phrases that are unknown to most people. It’s a huge drawback and you should avoid it. Replace all technical terms and professional jargon with more common words. In case you have to use some specific word, make sure you provide clear explanations and examples. Avoid abbreviations, acronyms, etc.

Cut it short

Some students write too long sentences and it’s another serious problem. Lengthy sentences and paragraphs are hard to read. Your readers may forget what was in the beginning when they get to the end. Therefore, make your sentences and paragraphs shorter. Divide them into several smaller parts. It will be much easier and faster to read them. Your readers will be grateful for that.

In addition, you may add tables, bullet lists, charts, diagrams, and other details. If you write some long and complicated paper similar to coursework or dissertation, add subheadings. Your texts will be pleasant to read.

Take care of your health

Many students get strongly engaged with what they do and forget to rest. It’s important to make frequent and short breaks. Maintain a healthy lifestyle. Consume pure water and healthy food, stay away from alcohol, don’t smoke, etc. Make sure you have enough sleep time, which is not less than 8 hours per day. Don’t overwork or your brain will be exhausted. As a result, you won’t be able to complete the simplest tasks and may suffer from some ailments.

Find inspiration

Sometimes, your success may depend on your motivation. People with low motivation commonly don’t accomplish most of their tasks. Accordingly, you’d better find some inspiration to get tuned. Undertake your hobbies and activities that make you happy. Visit a cinema, go on a trip, hang out with friends, and so on. Try to spend some time with people dear to you. They may greatly encourage you and help to fulfill many tasks you write.

Help from professionals

Unfortunately, some circumstances are stronger than students and force them to look for alternative sources of help. Otherwise, they’ll fail totally. Luckily, students may turn to a highly reputed term paper writing service when the need presses. One of the best options is CustomWritings.com. It’s a professional writing company, which can be fully trusted.

It hires only certificated and really gifted writers to execute papers of the top level.

CD Projekt Red Reveals Cyberpunk 2077 Multiplayer is in the Works

by Jamie Moorcroft-Sharp

12:58 pm in News

Earlier today CD Projekt Red revealed that Cyberpunk 2077 multiplayer is currently in development with the studio. So far all that we’ve seen of the upcoming RPG is single player, but now we know for sure that multiplayer will be coming to the game at some point in the future.

CD Projekt Red announced news that multiplayer is in development for Cyberpunk 2077 earlier today via a Tweet. Check out the Tweet below and read on for more detail.

2/2 The plan for now is to deliver Cyberpunk 2077 in April, then follow up with DLCs (free!) and single player content, and — once we’re done — invite you for some multiplayer action.

— CD PROJEKT RED (@CDPROJEKTRED) September 4, 2019

As you can see from the information they shared, CD Projekt Red is currently focused on completing development of the single player campaign for Cyberpunk 2077. After that, they’ll be working to ensure that their post-release plan for free additional content is followed, launching new content for the game on a regular basis. This is what the developer did with The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt, and it was extremely well received by fans, since at the time it was far more common for content to be held back from launch and sold to players months later.

Once Cyberpunk 2077’s free single player content has been released, the plan is for CD Projekt Red to launch the multiplayer mode for the game. There’s currently no word on what the game mode will look like, or how multiplayer could even be implemented in the main game. It looks as if CD Projekt Red isn’t totally sure what the game mode will look like either, since they’re asking for developers who want to work on the game, geared specifically towards the multiplayer mode, to get in touch.

While this mode is still in the early stages of development, the fact that it has been considered at all shows that CD Projekt Red cares about what their community want in their games. This is a great step in the right direction for Cyberpunk 2077.

Don’t forget to check out 14 minutes of new Cyberpunk 2077 gameplay right here.
