Microsoft X018: Here Are The Six Biggest Announcements

Care package plane's volume attenuation curve is now steeper. This means the distance at which the plane can be heard is the same, but the distance at which the plane's maximum sound can be heard has been decre


The update itself will be rolling out later this week, according to PUBG Corp, with an expected launch date of June 22nd, 2018. Until its official launch later this week, the Sanhok map will be available in the game's test server to try out on PC, as w


Video game companies often try to market a companion app for their games. I don't know if they're just trying to cross promote something that will get phone users to generate traffic, or if the developers legitimately got behind this thing as a useful service. Red Dead Redemption II's is on the latter half. It's actually useful, which is something I ignored until my friend messaged me and told me to check it out. It's a great way to use the


I'm not one for multiplayer especially when it comes to games with stories I want to get invested in. That said because Red Dead Redemption II is such a different experience, I was curious how the game was going to handle onl


Guess I'll have to wait because a beta won't even be ready until November. Will we even get the full release this year? Hard to say. This is just like Grand Theft Auto V's launch. You'd think Rockstar would have lear


Yes, you can miss missions. Now that may make sense if your caravan moves to a new area, or if a character, the quest giver, passes away. Those seem obvious, but there was one that didn't seem so obvious. In chapter three, I had two yellow missions as well as a white mission that said Abigail wanted to talk to me. Well when I did one of the yellows, Abigail’s disappeared, which was weird because it seemingly had nothing to do with what I just did. That's just the one I caught. Did I miss more before t


The menus aren't the only things cluttered in the game. Actually interacting with dressers, tables, and the like can also be frustrating. Let's look at your camp bedside for example. In your space you can sleep, sit, change clothes, interact with pictures and other objects on your nightstand, and shave. All of this is within centimeters of each other and simply turning one direction can change what you can see. Well if you hit the two triggers on PS4, it'll cycle through all available options near you. This saves a lot of t


Think of the Mirado as a compliment to the other unique vehicles on Miramar: The van is extremely sturdy, but slow and ineffective when taken off-road; The pickup is great for off-road travel; And the Mirado is the fastest way to blaze down a high


If you just don't want to use the companion app for your map, there is an easier way to access it. Again, the menus are a pain to navigate. Normally what it seems you have to do is hit the Options button on PS4, then select the map, and there you go. It was needlessly complicated. Well, I eventually found out that you can simply hold down Option and it'll bring it right up. That's another oops on my p

We’ve increased the delay for breath recovery time from one to four seconds. (In other words, when you lift your head up out of the water, it’ll now take four seconds before you begin to recover your bre


PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, Void Bastards, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, Ori and the Blind Forest, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Thief of Thieves: Season One, Kingdom: Two Crowns, Aftercharge, Supermarket Shriek, Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden, Secret Neighbor, Pathologic 2, The Good Life, Agents of Mayhem, MXGP 3, and Thomas Was Alone are all coming to Xbox Game Pass this holi


Like previous titles, the Hundred Acre Wood will be full of tons of minigames for players to try, including some more puzzle based ones, but players can now also walk around and interact with several Winnie the Pooh characters as well. This world reveal also came alongside the announcement that several Final Fantasy titles were coming to Xbox One as well, so JRPG fans will have a lot of classics to play on Microsoft's platform s


This is why the two games are not a great comparison. On one side, Epic’s battle royale mobile Update royale experience is all about close range combat and constructing forts. Whereas PUBG Corporation's rendition revolves around patience, strategy, and close to medium range combat. Your opinion of each game will most likely align with your playstyle. Most people love to run and gun. That is a big reason why Call of Duty sells so incredibly well every year and that is probably why Fortnite exploded. Well, besides it also being f


Finally, the Steam Community post from PUBG Corps also detailed that the developer is working on is a region lock-esque system for improving network performance for players in-game. Specifically, the system would only connect players from that region to connect and play, and regions would be invisible to players residing in other regions (excluding players that team up from opposite regio
