NVIDIA Won't Launch GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Super - tech
(hx) 12:37 AM CEST - Jul,17 2019 - Post a comment
During this year's E3 event, NVIDIA launched a new, refreshed lineup of "Turing" graphics cards, called GeForce RTX Super. They revealed that the "Super" refresh will be present for GeForce RTX 2060, RTX 2070 and RTX 2080, without disclosing whatever they will update GeForce RTX 2080 Ti as well. There were a plethora of rumors speculating CUDA core count and GPU core configurations for 2080 Ti Super model, with some claiming that it will feature a full TU102-400 die that is found on RTX Titan graphics card. However, according to Anthony Garreffa from TweakTown, during the GeForce RTX Super release event, he asked senior vice president of NVIDIA's PC business, Jeff Fisher, will there be a release of GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Super graphics card. To that question Jeff replied with a simple "would not be", meaning that the current "Super" lineup is complete as it is. Additionally, it is quite reasonable for NVIDIA not to give RTX 2080 Ti a "Super" treatment as that would close the performance gap between GeForce RTX 2080 Ti and RTX Titan graphics cards, possibly compromising the sales of the RTX Titan GPU.

A new Borderlands 3 trailer is out and the wait for September 13 is almost over! The trailer opens with Claptrap dancing as a crate opens and a mini version of Pandora comes to life as the song So Happy Together by The Turtles plays in the background. We get a glimpse at Moze, FL4K, Zane, and Amara, our four main vault hunters, in action as they dance and shoot enemies along the way.

Borderlands 3 launches on September 13, 2019 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

Tetris Effect Coming to PC Next Week - briefly
(hx) 09:59 PM CEST - Jul,16 2019 - Post a comment
After being exclusive to the PlayStation 4 for months, Enhance Inc. has finally announced that Tetris Effect will be coming to PC next week. Of course, this version will come with everything the PS4 version did and more. Players will now be able to adjust the game’s graphics in ways the PS4 version couldn’t. This includes ultra-wide monitor support, adjustable particle volume and size, and PC VR support. This means the two most popular VR headsets on PC, Oculus Rift and HTC Vive, will be fully supported on this version of the game. Just like the PS4 version, however, the use of VR is not required to enjoy the game. Tetris Effect will be coming to PC on July 23, 2019, exclusively through the Epic Games Store.

Fallout: New California Version 2.2.2 available - mod&map
(hx) 10:24 AM CEST - Jul,16 2019 - Post a comment / read (1)
The team behind Fallout: New California, a massive mod that adds an all new story with hours of voiced dialogue, a new world, and multiple branching narrative paths, has released a new version of it. Fallout: New California is described as an unofficial prequel to New Vegas, and its latest version fixes numerous bugs. For instance, patch 2.2.2 removes blocking condition from CH1 ALPHA terminal that was preventing force field power down option from showing, fixes a faction problem with switching sides from pipe works to Upper apartments, fixes the zombie firemen and their OP loot by removing them and more. In Fallout: New California you play as the kid from Vault 18 and you’ll face the New California Republic under president Wendell Peterson, the New Reno Mob’s Bishop Family, the remnant Shi Clans, The Enclave Leonidas Squadron, the Super Mutant Army, and the bloodthirsty Raider Alliance. Through them all you’ll choose your path from SPECIAL dialog options, acquired PERKs, and travel with 8 possible companions depending on your choices.

GhostWire: Tokyo first in-game look - briefly
(hx) 09:48 AM CEST - Jul,16 2019 - Post a comment
GhostWire: Tokyo's creepy cool trailer impressed at E3 2019 as it introduced us to the big concepts behind the game, but something was missing. The CGI trailer didn't give us much of an idea of what the actual game will look or play like. Luckily we may now have our first look at GhostWire in action thanks to the Twitter feed of creative director Ikumi Nakamura (whose earnest and exuberant stage presence made her an E3 fave as well). Nakamura's Tweet teases the main concepts for the game: "Raptured Apocalypse + Near Future Tokyo + Supernatural" with a link to the E3 trailer. Then it sets up a new video that appears to give us our first-ever look at the game with the question "Is this 'Normal' or 'Paranormal?'"

Gears 5 will have 60hz servers - briefly
(hx) 09:17 AM CEST - Jul,16 2019 - Post a comment / read (2)
The Coalition and Microsoft have announced that Gears 5 will have 60hz servers and universal weapon tuning. These new features were announced during the ELEAGUE Summer Invitational tournament and I’m pretty sure that all Gears of War fans will be happy with them. Gears 5 will not feature a Season Pass, all of the post-launch DLC maps will be available to everyone for free, there won’t be any Gear Packs. On the other hand, the game will feature Supply Drops which cannot be purchased with real-world money, as well as micro-transactions. Players will be able to purchase Iron (the in-game currency) so they can spend it in the game’s store, and there will also be an optional purchasable that provides accelerated progression for a period of real-world time. Gears 5 is currently scheduled for a September 10th release.

Borderlands 3's new pinging system video - movie
(hx) 12:47 AM CEST - Jul,16 2019 - Post a comment / read (2)
This pinging system is similar to the one featured in APEX Legends and today, we are happy to share the first video showing the game’s pinging system in action. In Borderlands 3, players will be able to ping objects and enemies so that they can – quickly and effectively – communicate with their co-op partners without speaking. Borderlands 3 is currently planned for a September 13th release and sadly will be timed exclusive on the Epic Games Store

Randy Pitchford has confirmed that Borderlands 3 will support cross-play. However, this won’t be a day-1 feature, meaning that it will be coming to the game via a post-launch update. This may disappoint some fans but we’ll be at least able to play with our friends – that obviously game on different platforms – at some point.

Some folks may be speculating that this thing tomorrow may be about cross play. Tomorrow’s thing is awesome, but *not* about cross-play. But, Good News: We are committed to supporting cross-play for Borderlands 3 with our partners as soon as practicable after launch. #talklater https://t.co/XtUzrBpySP

PUBG - Inside Look - Anti-Cheat Update - briefly
(hx) 11:59 PM CEST - Jul,14 2019 - Post a comment / read (1)
An update from the PUBG team working behind the scenes to respond to cheaters and unauthorized apps.

In other news, this post on Reddit discusses advances they have in the works to combat cheating in the battle royale game.     We know reports of cheaters, especially in Ranked, have been a hot topic so this week we also wanted to provide a little visibility into some of the work that’s been going on behind the scenes to combat cheating:

        Using machine learning to create behavior models that detect and auto ban cheaters.
        Requiring TFA in certain regions on high risk accounts.
        Improving detection that identifies and bans new spam accounts before they are used.
        Ongoing work to adapt to new cheats.
        Matchmaking that matches detected cheaters and spammers together.
        Investigating how people party up for matches. Even if you are not specifically using a cheat, partying up with cheaters is still cheating.
        Increasing resources whether that be people or tech.

    As we’ve said before, the war against cheaters will be ongoing and remains a high priority for us. There will always be work to do, improvements to make, and new things to adapt to. We’d like to thank the players that have been getting involved with helping us squash cheaters over the last week whether it be submitting reports or assisting with the vetting process for suspicious behavior.

    If you encounter a cheater you can report them here. If you can please try to capture video proof as well.

    Understand that we are not going to discuss the details of a specific ban with players on any public forums. If you feel that you have been wrongly banned you can appeal it here.

Moses Saintfleur, 3D artist at CyberConnect2 Montreal, has shared a video showing a re-imagined environment from the cancelled Fable 4 game in Unreal Engine 4. This video showcases the creation of this level from its starting to the final stages, and will give you a small glimpse at what a new Fable could look in Unreal Engine 4. It is rumoured that Microsoft may announce a new Fable game for its platforms (presumably for Xbox One or Project Scarlett and the PC) in the near future. Last month, there were some rumours suggesting a possible E3 2019 reveal, however Microsoft did not announce anything at all during that gaming event.
