A beefy Battlefield 6 update has just dropped, and it aims to take care of a couple of bugs and exploits which have become infamous bugbears over the last little while. No longer will people be able to fly up to rooftops by smacking drones with sledgehammers, and no longer will lock-guided missiles cheekily ignore countermeasures.
Well, it could have been worse. Fallout 4‘s all-important script extender modding tool has taken less than 24 hours to be updated to work with the RPG‘s freshly released anniversary update. It joins an ever-growing list of mods which have been categorised as updated over on Nexus Mods, while Bethesda are seemingly still looking into issues around the anniversary update’s extra creations stuff not showing up properly for Steam players.
As with last year’s Fallout 4 next-gen update, this re-release playing some degree of havok with mods was guaranteed going in, with Bethesda issuing a specific warning against ones which edit the game’s main menu. As modding platform Nexus Mods predicted, the list of mods requiring updates to work with the new version has been larger than just those.
I hope none of you are allergic to shellfish, because Shrimp Game is exactly what it sounds like: a game about shrimp! And yet that is a complete bastardisation of what it is, for you do not simply play as a shrimp, you are piloting a shrimp, or SHRIMP (Submersible Hydrodynamic Research Integrated Marine Platforms), and you must survive a hellish underwater landscape filled with sea creatures that strive to see your life ended and “Lovecraftian bosses.”
Do you think there are people out there that feel as passionately as sports fans do when someone gets added to their team that might make them better, but with video game developers? Probably not, or at least only on a personal level, but for that hypothetical group of people that exists, a new trade (is that how you refer to sports doers, I really don’t know) has taken place between the team behind Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, and CD Projekt Red.
I am sure that, if I were a porter of any kind in the material world, I would find an exoskeleton quite helpful. Probably, anyway, I might also be too afraid that one would crush my bones, or fuse to my body in a horrendous accident that results in the government stealing me away to send me on top secret missions thanks to my strong part-robot body. None of that happened when I used an exoskeleton in both Death Stranding games, it was actually quite a useful thing to do. And now, apparently, I can try out what the experience of what using one is like, free of my silly little bits, with an – I kid you not – officially licensed Death Stranding 2: On the Beach exoskeleton.
Anyone that’s spent any amount of time playing Helldivers 2 recently will already know that the thing the game needs right now isn’t new features, its fixes. A massive patch dropped last month bringing in over 200 bug fixes (you know, the technological kind of bugs), as part of the dev team’s promise to get the game in running order again. That promise even extends to holding off on adding new stuff for the time being. When it comes to new stuff, however, one thing you shouldn’t expect for the time being is cross progression.
I don’t particularly like trends in genres all that much. They’re much too relied upon, and don’t really tell me much about a game outright. Even still, I do like to think about why a particular genre might be trending. More than that, I love a twist on a trending genre that actually seeks to reckon with said genre. Like, say, Ambrosia Sky, one of those cleaning sorts of games except instead of muck or leaves, you’re cleaning up a cosmic contamination on a dead asteroid colony. And its first act is out today!
Sit down. “I’m preaching patience.” Stay calm. “I don’t want fans to feel anxious.” There’s no need to hide underneath a chest of drawers. Some of those are things I’ve had to tell my firework-averse cat around Bonfire Night time here in the UK. Some of them are things Todd Howard has said about The Elder Scrolls 6 in a fresh interview that’s also about Bethesda’s imminently to be released again radioactive golden goose, Fallout 4.
The Steam page of recently released post-apocalyptic survival shooter Misery – seemingly unaffiliated with the Stalker mod called Misery – has been pulled offline, with developers Platypus Entertainment alleging it’s the result of a DMCA takedown filed by Stalker creators GSC Game World. Platypus say they’re in the process of fighting this claim, which an email shared by Platypus themselves suggests is all about copyright and purported use of GSC’s “game content” without permission.
Ask me what I’m thinking about, at a random moment any hour of the day. There’s a good chance that however you time it, the answer will be either Roma youth academy players, Goncalo Ramos’ egregious salary demands, or that time Maurizio Sarri bodied me in a press conference following our Derby della Capitale. By rights this should not be the case.
