Battlefield 6 beta’s rush mode gets a balancing tweak with EA monitoring the situation, amid player complaints about battle bigness
EA have made a tweak to the Battlefield 6 open beta’s rush, and are keeping tabs on the situation in case it needs more balancing changes. This comes as some FPS folks and Battlefield vets have voiced their displeasure with the version of the mode that’s debuted in this second weekend of beta action.
The biggest moans are related to size. Namely the amount of players on each side in these revamped rush battles and the relatively small maps they’re being contested on. As you might imagine, those two elements being a bit titchier in scale than previous Battlefields has also had knock on effects for other aspects of the mode.
Wuchang: Fallen Feathers bosses made unkillable in latest patch, seemingly to appease Chinese outcry
Wuchang: Fallen Feathers got its 1.5 Patch this week, bringing multiple quality-of-life improvements to the Soulslike, but also story and boss adjustments which appear to have been made to appease Chinese netizens.
“Multiple” future Hardspace projects are coming, as Hardspace: Shipbreaker devs Blackbird Interactive take full ownership
Floating amid the scrap belts of space, some news. Hardspace: Shipbreaker is now owned by developers Blackbird Interactive, with the studio having bought control of the ship-stripping sim from publishers Saber Interactive. They’re not having a rest after cracking open that bubbly either, writing that “multiple Hardspace projects” are in development.
Blackbird revealed all of this via a Steam post, writing that they’ve “reached an agreement with Focus Entertainment, our publishing partner, to reacquire full ownership of the Hardspace: Shipbreaker intellectual property”. So, as you might expect, doing plenty of Hardspacey things is going to be a big part of the studio’s plans going forwards.
Rally Point: The wonderful vibes of Aetheris are a hint about its design goals
The first striking thing about Aetheris is its strange and colourful look. The second thing that strikes about Aetheris is the gorgeous animations and storybook trappings of its presentation, even in its loading screen transitions. The third is the strange vulnerability radiating from the village of lizardy people you’re responsible for, and the parties you form with them. The fourth striking thing is that this a roguelike, it’s a bloody roguelike isn’t it, oh goddamn it.
It also binds the spacebar to “accept”, something I learned by accidentally starting a bossfight in a terrible position that threw a whole party away. Or would have, if not for the ol’ ctrleffor. I will never be stopped.
The fact that I kept playing instead of sulking and libelling a random CEO is a hint: I bloody love Aetheris.
Amazon is giving away $30 of Amazon credit when you buy this Razer headset, and we have no idea why
If ever a headset’s name shouted ‘GAMER’, it’s a Razer BlackShark. It’s not just a shark, it’s a very specific type of shark that’s presumably very good at games.
By Azura, an Oblivion Remastered modder’s dropped collectable Adoring Fan skill bobbleheads all over Cyrodiil
If you like your Bethesda RPG with a bit more of another sort of Bethesda RPG, I’ve got good news. An Oblivion Remastered modder’s decided to put another Fallout feature into the 2006’s hottest ‘supposed to be a jungle, but Lord of the Rings is popular’ game. This time, it’s Adoring Fan skill bobbleheads, and they might help you come to find the annoying lad a bit more loveable.
Hey, if nothing else, you can stick them on the mantelpiece of that house you’re using Obiliv in a thing called love’s Fallout-inspired settlement building mod to erect.
Look, I just want to talk (about Burnout in wplace)
Right, so, it’s happened. One of my calls for a new Burnout game via the art map void has received a response. Quite frankly, assuming it’s accurate, it’s not the news I was hoping for. That doesn’t mean I’m stopping here, though.
In case you’ve got no idea what I’m on about, the other day I made my mark (no pun intended) on wplace, a site that picks up the mantle from Reddit of letting people doodle all over a map of the world. In two different places, I politely asked for a fresh entry in the Burnout series via slightly wonky writing.
