https://stayclose.social/Linda46456599373/ Latest updates from Linda Peltier https://stayclose.social/blog/115904/pubg-gets-more-loot-boxes-faster-than-map-selector/ Given the early access nature of the game at launch, the long period of slow updates as the primary focus shifted to gambling for loot boxes to sell on Steam for real money, it's seemed for a few months now that PUBG Missions Corp was playing the short-term game. The rushed nature of the mobile and Xbox One versions of the games signify the company's obvious intention of letting the game spread as fast as possible before something else takes over, and Fortnite already did. And now they have an incomplete game with pissed off players who are moving over in dro


As people have been quick to note, the Ghillie suit is available to all PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds players for free. Many players also rush to find it in pockets of loot across the map because of its effectiveness and so the suggestion that the Ghillie suit is a useful cosmetic is not necessarily news. But this section of the lawsuit does raise a larger question about how cosmetic loot can affect gameplay even if it doesn't provide any discernible buffs to attributes and st


Nominated for six different awards, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild cleaned up at the annual DICE Awards in Las Vegas, scoring four wins in some major categories. In addition to Outstanding Achievement In Game Direction, Outstanding Achievement in Game Design and Adventure Game of the Year, Breath of the Wild took home the coveted award for Game of the Year, beating out some tough competition in Cuphead , Horizon Zero Dawn , PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds , and fellow Switch title Super Mario Odyss


Since then however, a team of its devs went to Thailand for some inspiration and are taking player feedback, their own ideas, and things they see into consideration for evolving this new map. That's the main benefit of getting Savage playable super early before it's really built


Of course, this isn't the only change coming out of Fortnite 's playbooks. Another addition coming to the list of changes is an Emote System -- a feature that will be coming to the Test Server "very soon." For an idea of what this looks like, check out the gallery be


"Clothing does affect gameplay in terms of camouflage. Clothing can be used to assist the player to blend in with the environment, making the player less visually detectable. In particular, Battlegrounds includes a Ghillie suit, a full body suit covered with camouflaging material typically used by snipers. The Ghillie suit allows the player to become nearly visually invisible depending upon the terra


Other occasional tweaks being worked on throughout the year is an improvement in sound design, a focus on creating eSport tools, and implementation and expansion of Custom Games that will come later through the y


It's no coincidence that some of the biggest names end up getting nominated for these prestigious awards. Last year, Blizzard's still wildly popular shooter Overwatch took home four awards including 2016's Game of the Year. Other big games from last year's event include Uncharted 4: A Thief's End , Pokemon GO , DOOM , Forza Horizon 3 , and Battlefield 1 . With the majority of 2018 still to come, it'll be interesting to see which games end up standing out from other titles and score nominations for next year's s


Dr DisRespect finally made his return to Twitch.tv today, and in the process managed to take the platform down. The streamer, whose real name is Guy Beahm, is one of the most popular around, and his caustic personality has gelled well with Twitch users. He's the (self-proclaimed) "face of Twitch" after all! The former video game developer has managed to pull in huge numbers with his PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds streams, leading to the doctor becoming one of the biggest Twitch celebrities and winner of two awards for it last y


The latest and greatest gaming feud, Bluehole Studios' PUBG and Epic Games' Fortnite , is taking on a new level of competition. The PUBG development team laid out their plans for 2018 and it looks like they are trying to copy some of the more successful elements of what Fortnite brings to the increasingly-competitive battle roy


It's not the only time that Twitch has faced difficulties when demands are made by a high number of users. Last August, Twitch had some major outages , with the service stuck down for several hours with only intermittent access. As the site grows larger and larger, no doubt the service will aim to stop these issues from cropping up again, particularly when dates that are likely to put a major strain on the service can be easily identif


After losing its way with the Wii U, Nintendo has once again caught lightning in a bottle with its latest innovation in the Nintendo Switch. The console's strong start was helped in many ways by the outstanding Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild , a game which took the familiar franchise formula and turned it on its head to craft something truly unique. It appears that the 30,000 members of the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences are also pretty fond of the Switch as a number of exclusive games won big at the 21 st Annual D.I.C.E. Awards last ni
