Halo MCC Flood Firefight teased, coming “next week” Posted: 09 Apr 2022 03:42 AM PDT It looks like the long-awaited Halo MCC Flood Firefight mode is finally getting added, and very soon too. The Halo: The Master Chief Collection Flood mode is coming "next week", going by a tease on official Halo channels - long before Halo Infinite even gets co-op. Halo Infinite - the most recent and much-lauded entry in the long-running FPS game series - released last December, so you'd expect interest to drop off from the older games in the franchise. That doesn't seem to be the case, with the Master Chief Collection still having a good player base - and Halo Infinite won't get campaign co-op until Season 2 kicks off. Now, the official Halo Twitter account confirms that "something new" is coming to the collection "next week". It teased this with a picture of a Halo marine fighting the Flood, leading players to believe that the long-rumoured Halo MCC Flood Firefight mode is finally coming - despite never being a thing in the original games, as Firefight is usually just about fighting the Covenant.

YouTube and Ali-A are launching a talent show for new content creators Posted: 09 Apr 2022 03:00 AM PDT Call of Duty and Fortnite content creator Alastair 'Ali-A' Aiken is teaming up with YouTube to unearth a new wave of influencers through a talent show. This one is called uTure, and it has a grand prize of $100k. The way it'll all work is reasonably straightforward. Starting in June, ten applicants will face weekly content creation challenges over nine weeks. Judges like Lachlan 'Lachlan' Power, Kayla 'LilSimsie' Sims, and more are running the rule over all of this. The rest of the judging panel, though, will be revealed later today at 6pm BST / 1pm EDT / 10am PDT on Ali-A's main YouTube channel. Once the time comes, you can catch episodes of the talent show every Saturday and Wednesday on the uTure channel. Entries for this one open today at 6pm BST, and involve submitting a YouTube Short as an application, which is a new short-form video experience created for mobile. Doing so is a doddle. Simply create a 60-second short on the app and ensure you've got the #uTureShow included. View the full site RELATED LINKS: Fortnite V-Bucks, Fortnite Skins, Fortnite Creative Codes

Yu-Gi-Oh: Master Duel Synchro Festival details revealed Posted: 08 Apr 2022 04:18 PM PDT The Yu-Gi-Oh: Master Duel Synchro Festival has been confirmed as the card game's next major event, and the devs have revealed a host of details on what players can expect. As the name implies, this event is focused on Synchro summoning, and if you're looking to start building your own deck, the tools you'll need are already available in-game. The Synchro Festival starts on April 11 at 10pm PDT, or April 12 at 1am EDT / 6pm BST, and will conclude on April 21 at 6pm PDT / 9pm EDT, or April 22 at 2am BST. As with previous events, you'll earn medals from playing matches, win, lose, or draw. Get enough medals, and you'll pick up rewards including in-game currency. For this event, you'll only be able to use Synchro monsters in your extra deck. The full banlist is far too extensive to republish here, but if you head to the Duel menu in-game and open the Synchro Festival page, you'll be able to construct a deck with all the current forbidden, limited, and semi-limited cards accounted for.

Subnautica 3 confirmed – or at least the third Subnautica Posted: 08 Apr 2022 03:11 PM PDT Yep, we can now say 'Subnautica 3 confirmed' - unless you're really pedantic, in which case we must say 'the third entry in the Subnautica series is confirmed'. Either way, developer Unknown Worlds has announced that the "next game in the Subnautica universe" is in development, alongside a job listing which reveals a few things about the direction of the upcoming game. The devs are looking for a senior narrative designer (via our friends at The Loadout) who will "collaborate closely with the team to tell compelling, dramatic stories in the context of the game experience, while also defining the history and lore of a new science fiction world and its alien inhabitants. This person has a unique opportunity to join the team early in development and help establish the narrative direction for a beloved franchise." Subnautica has always had an unusual emphasis on narrative for a survival game, and it looks like that won't be changing with the next series entry. The listing pushes for someone familiar with "open-world games and the process of developing narrative in the context of an open-ended, player-driven experience," and who has "experience working on live projects or episodic content".

Valorant devs remind players to report toxic behaviour Posted: 08 Apr 2022 02:18 PM PDT The developers of competitive FPS game Valorant have reminded players to use the in-game reporting tool when they encounter toxic behaviour, following a prominent YouTube streamer going viral for an abuse-riddled tirade against a female team member. A clip of streamer IShowSpeed, a variety streamer with more than 7 million subscribers, caught the attention of Full Squad Gaming co-founder Jake Lucky earlier this week. In the clip, IShowSpeed is downed while coming around a corner in Valorant and loses his temper, ultimately exploding at a female member of his team in a torrent of misogynistic slurs. "I now understand what Valorant queues are so unbelievably toxic," Lucky wrote when he posted the clip to Twitter. "You got one of the most popular streamers on YouTube IShowSpeed saying crap like this and getting nothing but praise and laughs. Crap is whack." IShowSpeed has since issued an apology, but has been banned from Valorant and all other Riot games. As Kotaku reports, IShowSpeed says he was "not having a good day" and had been dealing with racist insults himself. However, he said, "No excuse, I'm wrong. I'm not trying to justify it."

This Fortnite Assassin’s Creed map even has Eagle Vision Posted: 08 Apr 2022 01:43 PM PDT A Fortnite fan has put together an Assassin's Creed-themed map for all your parkour, practise, and roleplaying needs. It's still in the works, but there's already a Fortnite map code you can use to give it a whirl. Redditor Ryu-Gi has shared what they have so far on the battle royale's subreddit, showcasing 18 screenshots to give everyone a sense of the map's vibe. It is, unsurprisingly, very much an Assassin's Creed map. A quick look through the screenshots reveals an impressive cathedral, a tightrope above a market, and plenty of cobblestone streets to run around. With Assassin's Creed being a varied series, it's clear that the map creator is going for the classic look here. They've been waiting for the Ezio skin specifically to be able to show this map off, because they wanted to make sure they could have good screenshots and create a trailer. They've also said we can "expect it to drop very soon!" View the full site RELATED LINKS: Fortnite V-Bucks, Fortnite Skins, Fortnite Creative Codes

League of Legends challenges will arrive with patch 12.9 Posted: 08 Apr 2022 11:00 AM PDT League of Legends will see its new challenges system arrive on the live servers in May, developer Riot has announced. The system is due to show up in patch 12.9, which is currently set for release on May 11, and they add a host of achievement-style feats to chase down to provide the MOBA game's players with a way to track accomplishments outside of their win/loss ratios. Riot first started talking about challenges last year, and pointed out that there's more going on in the system than simply crossing off a list of tasks. Each challenge falls into one of several categories, and they can be ranked up from iron all the way through master levels. Some even have grandmaster and challenger tiers, although only a select number of players per region can claim those titles at any given time. Riot has now revealed that the challenge system will be included in patch 12.9, and has also provided some new details about the system. Challenge progress is tracked in your player crystal, and you'll be able to showcase achievements you're particularly proud of at any time.

There will finally be an FFXIV auto-target option in 6.1 Posted: 08 Apr 2022 10:54 AM PDT The preliminary patch notes for patch 6.1 live, and it looks like we're finally getting a proper FFXIV auto-target option. That could be a massive quality-of-life upgrade over the current, extremely limited auto-target setting. While the biggest additions to the MMO this patch were already noted in previous Live Letters, there are plenty of notable new tweaks and details in the update details. When the FFXIV patch 6.1 release date arrives on Tuesday, April 12, you'll find a new 'auto-target settings' section in the target section of the character configuration menu. This will target-based abilities to automatically select an enemy when you have no target specified, and is sure to be a lifesaver when you're spamming AOEs on trash mobs in your dungeon roulettes. You'll be able to choose whether the system prioritises the closest target or the next enemy in your line of sight. There's far too much in the patch notes to run everything down here, but some of the highlights include the fact that players can now be revived after falling from the arena in duties like The Navel and the Extreme version of Whorleater.

Here’s where Xur is in Destiny 2 today Posted: 08 Apr 2022 10:10 AM PDT Xûr is Destiny 2's Exotic gear merchant. He appears every weekend to sell the game's most coveted items in exchange for Legendary shards, but if you're a casual player with limited shards to spend, it can be hard to know which of his wares is most worth your investment. That's where we come in. As of June 12, 2020, it appears that Xûr is back to providing random rolls - so the Exotic merchant is providing more excitement than he has in a long time. Xûr appears every Friday at 10am PDT / 1pm EDT / 6pm BST, and will stick around until the Tuesday reset. We'll update this guide shortly after he arrives, so if you're reading this, you need only read on to learn where he is, and which are the best items he's selling this week. Now we're in Beyond Light territory, but Xûr's first appearances have been at the usual spots - so maybe don't expect too many surprises from the merchant in the new year of Destiny content.

Here are the Destiny 2 Trials rewards this week Posted: 08 Apr 2022 10:07 AM PDT Bungie's pinnacle PvP activity is back in rotation with a major revamp, and if you're looking for details on the Destiny 2 Trials rewards this week, you've come to the right place. Before you start working your way up through the ladder, you'll want to know what you're actually working for - so here's a breakdown of what's available each week, and what map you'll be playing on. If you're not familiar with Trials of Osiris, it's a weekly PvP challenge where you enter a competitive gauntlet of 3v3 elimination matches. Your rewards are now doled out with a reputation system, so it's not about pure wins anymore, but you will still get special rewards if you can manage to go flawless. Trials lands with the reset every Friday at 10am PDT / 1pm EDT / 6pm BST, and lasts until the Tuesday reset at those same times. Each week provides a new set of rewards and a new map to play on, so here's what you can expect for the latest rotation.

HyperX Pulsefire Haste review – the best ultra-light gaming mouse Posted: 08 Apr 2022 09:19 AM PDT When I first laid eyes on the HyperX Pulsefire Haste, the hexagonal cutouts that extend from the base of its clickers down to its underside left me with a distinct feeling of unease. I don't suffer from trypophobia or anything like that, but it just looked wrong. "Where's the rest of it?" I joked to myself, but after having now used it for the past several weeks, I've grown rather fond of this lightweight rodent. As you might've guessed, the hex shell design serves the purpose of trimming the HyperX Pulsefire Haste's weight down to just 59g, and is without a doubt the mouse's hallmark feature. Swapping back and forth between my daily driver, the Corsair Sabre RGB Pro Wireless felt so much heavier and it only weighs 20g more at a meagre 79g of its own. You might be worried that in order for HyperX to achieve this featherweight accolade, the company may have compromised the build quality or ergonomics of the Pulsefire Haste. I'm happy to report that this is absolutely not the case. Its matte plastic body and buttons feel sturdy to the touch, and I didn't encounter any noticeable discomfort or trouble shifting between grip styles.

Get 70% off PureVPN’s one-year VPN tier to protect your privacy Posted: 08 Apr 2022 09:17 AM PDT If you don't have a virtual private network (VPN), then you may have the digital equivalent of very public nudity (VPN), because all of your internet activity might not be totally secure. Thankfully, you can protect your privacy quite easily (and affordably) with 70% off PureVPN's one-year VPN plan. Of course, it's easy to question just how 'private' your VPN provider really is, but have no fear.

Halo Infinite’s new maps are apparently Catalyst and Breaker Posted: 08 Apr 2022 09:06 AM PDT Halo Infinite's new maps are finally set to arrive with the launch of Season 2 in May, offering a bit of hope for fans who've felt that the game has been suffering a content drought. The devs at 343 Industries haven't broken down everything coming in the new season, but the rollout will include "new maps, modes, themed limited-time events, and an all-new battle pass." Halo Infinite Season 2 is officially titled 'Lone Wolves', and will launch on May 3. The trailer appears to show off two new maps - a smaller, underground map and a larger above-ground map under reddish skies. According to leaks, the smaller map will be called Catalyst, and the larger map will be a Big Team Battle arena called Breaker. We also see players in an apparent free-for-all battle inside a walled circle. A mode called Last Spartan Standing was leaked a few days ago, and this seems to be it. It's said to be a Big Team Battle variation that sounds a lot like a battle royale game - you'll be improving your loadout by adding points to your personal score throughout the match.

Lego Star Wars Skywalker Saga size: trim your install by 8GB Posted: 08 Apr 2022 09:14 AM PDT Knocking a few blocks off of Lego Star Wars The Skywalker Saga size is fairly easy, and you could trim your install by 8GB. While the sci-fi parody adventure shouldn't brick up your gaming SSD or hard drive, shrinking its file size could help if you've got a particularly chonky Steam library. The Lego Star Wars The Skywalker Saga size sits at around 40GB on Steam, but if you're happy to delete some of the game's extra language dubs, you can reduce it down to 32GB. Sure, 8GB isn't much by today's standards, but every byte of space counts if you're trying to squeeze the space opera crossover onto the same drive as Call of Duty: Warzone. Before diving into The Skywalker Saga install folder, it's important to consider the risks of tinkering with files. While removing extra audio files shouldn't break the game, you'll still want to be extra careful, as you could end up deleting something important. If this happens, you might need to download Lego Star Wars The Skywalker Saga from Steam again or use Valve's storefront to verify the integrity your files.

AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D CPU beats Intel i9-12900KF in Tomb Raider Posted: 08 Apr 2022 08:48 AM PDT While most of us will need to wait a while longer before we get our hands on the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D CPU, it appears one lucky outlet is already putting team red's new flagship through its paces. Now, XanxoGaming (via Videocardz) has shared some gaming benchmark data that places the chip comfortably ahead of its main competition, the Intel Core i9-12900KF. XanxoGaming tested the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D and the 12900KF in Shadow of the Tomb Raider, running the game at 720p to mitigate any potential GPU bottlenecks. Their tests find that the AMD chip produces average frame rates around 22% higher than its rival, lending some credit to the notion that it could very well be "the world's fastest gaming CPU." It's currently unclear how this will scale to higher resolutions, but it does show that the 3D V-Cache technology on the Ryzen 7 5800X3D helps to make this AMD's best gaming CPU ever. That said, the Intel Core i9-12900KS looms large on the horizon, and higher core clocks could see it create a new processor performance ceiling.

The best Rimworld mods Posted: 08 Apr 2022 07:45 AM PDT What are the best Rimworld mods? Rimworld is a colony management game with a very simple premise - you must ensure the survival of a ragtag bunch of colonists, each with their own randomly generated skills, backstories, and idiosyncrasies. Depending on the AI storyteller settings, your experience might fall anywhere between 'wholesome farming sim' and 'relentless cascade of disaster'. There are plenty of Rimworld mods out there to add extras and quality of life tweaks to your playthroughs. Some of them are basic improvements that let you organise your colony better or become more efficient, some add brand new mechanics like hygiene and children, and there are a few that completely transform the game by adding magic or space exploration. We recommend trying the mod-free experience first, and gradually adding mods once you've tucked a couple of vanilla Rimworld colonies under your belt, and moved on emotionally from the harrowing tales that have emerged from your adventures. Like that time one of your ailing colonists passed away and your doctor immediately fed their corpse to the other patient, or when everyone got food poisoning on a cross country road trip and the only upright colonist, who had sworn never to do violence, was mauled to death by a mad squirrel.

Nvidia RTX 4080 – release date, price, spec, and benchmarks Posted: 08 Apr 2022 07:15 AM PDT The upcoming Nvidia RTX 4080 could be the best graphics card money can buy, especially if you find the potential price of the RTX 4090 offputting. While it won't be top in terms of spec, the RTX 3080 successor should still offer enthusiast levels of performance that stretch beyond the boundaries of mid-tier options. PC gamers may feel pessimistic about grabbing an RTX 4080 graphics card later this year, as it's widely believed that GPU and CPU shortages will persist until 2023. To get ahead of the manufacturing curve, Nvidia has reportedly spent $10 billion securing RTX 4000 series components, which might translate to increased launch availability. The green team is also gunning to smooth out manufacturing, as TSMC will replace Samsung as the company's sole chip fabricator. Chip politics and manufacturing mumbo-jumbo aside, you're probably eager to learn more about Nvidia's next-gen graphics card. To help shallow the waters of the speculation sea, we've gathered everything we know so far about RTX 4090 price, release date, specs, and benchmarks, as it may be the GPU for you.

Minecraft Elden Ring has arrived thanks to mods Posted: 08 Apr 2022 06:30 AM PDT Minecraft's version of Elden Ring is here, and it's amazing. Marrying up these two titans of gaming seems like an impossible task, but thanks to the power of modding, and one very committed YouTuber, it's now a reality. What's more, it's easy enough to do it yourself. The YouTuber in question is AsianHalfSquat, who does a lot of Minecraft mod videos highlighting the great work that the community is doing in the building game. This time around, it wasn't one mod they were highlighting, but over 40. In the video, AsianHalfSquat goes over each of the mods they've chosen in detail, explaining why they've been picked, any minor tweaks you may need to make, or any potential issues they can cause. It's a lot to take in, but it's worth watching the video if only to understand just how titanic this undertaking is. If you fancy it yourself, you can find the Shattered Ring mod pack at the link.

Lost Ark ability stones guide Posted: 08 Apr 2022 06:09 AM PDT Looking for help with Lost Ark ability stones? Ability stones are part of the engravings system in Lost Ark. For a full explanation of the mechanic, you can take a look at our Lost Ark engravings guide, but to summarise, engravings are passive effects that have three different tiers of potency. To activate each tier you must accumulate a particular number of engraving points - five for tier one, ten for tier two, and fifteen for tier three. You encounter engravings as you level up in Lost Ark, but it's not until the endgame - after level 50 - that they really come into play. This is when you can acquire items that earn you a significant amount of engraving points, including the Lost Ark ability stones, dropped from endgame raids and dungeons. They generate with two random combat engravings and one random negative, or 'malus', engraving. However, ability stones don't provide any engraving points until they are faceted. The faceting process is a little complicated and relies on luck, although you can maximise your chances of getting more engraving points if you're smart about it. Here's everything you need to know about faceting ability stones in Lost Ark. View the full site RELATED LINKS: Best MMOS and MMORPGs on PC, Upcoming PC games, Best fantasy games on PC

Best PC fans in 2022 Posted: 08 Apr 2022 05:39 AM PDT Cooling your gaming PC might seem like a simple process, but nothing quite compares to the best PC fans. Sure, you could chuck any old blower inside your PC case, but your components can't run the most demanding games at a decent frame rate if they're hampered by what's known as thermal throttling - heating up enough to underperform but not too much that your PC will shut down. Sticking with a set of Noctua, be quiet, Cooler Master, or Thermaltake fans is a surefire way to ensure your gaming RAM, SSDs, and motherboard feel the cold breeze when they can't cool themselves. While we can separate the best PC fans from the duds, you'll still need to ask yourself a bunch of questions before chucking your money at your gaming monitor. Do you want the coolest components possible or a silent PC, as this is often the trade-off you'll need to make? Are you attaching the fans to the radiator of an AIO cooler, the heatsink of an air cooler, or straight to your chassis? And what size fans do you need? Once you're sure everything's compatible, you'll need to consider the amount of air your case takes in versus how much it exhausts. Ideally, you'll want either the same amount or more air coming into your case, but we'll run through everything you need to know after presenting you with our selection of the best PC fans.

Streamplify could help start your Twitch streamer journey Posted: 08 Apr 2022 04:51 AM PDT If you've ever looked into becoming a Twitch streamer, you'll know that finding the right accessories isn't always easy. Not only do the best microphones and webcams come at a premium price point, but pairing your choices with the right tripods, mic arms, and lighting requires careful research. While well-known brands like Logitech, Elgato, and Razer make exceptional products, few companies provide an all-in-one solution that includes everything you need to stream online. Enter Streamplify – an affordable new range of gaming PC gear that aims to kit out budding content creators with a complete streaming setup. Developed by Pro Gamers Group, the same company responsible for brands like Noblechairs, Streamplify provides both tools and knowledge to aspiring creators and streamers. At a glance, the range appears to be an array of budget accessories that cost significantly less than branded alternatives. This is certainly the case, but each product goes beyond cheap and cheerful by packing respectable specs and additional extras that will save you heading to Google in a panic. Streamplify kindly let me try out its complete bundle, which includes an RGB microphone, 1080p webcam, two ring lights, and a green screen. It's worth noting that while I've dabbled with streaming Steam games in the past, I actually felt empowered to get back into Twitch content creation. In fact, even though I'm certainly not going to be the next Pokemaine, both the range's accessories and easy setup helped me feel more confident and effectively re-opened the door to a previously shelved hobby.

Want to get into games journalism? There’s a W.A.S.D panel for that Posted: 08 Apr 2022 04:21 AM PDT Ever wanted to get into games journalism? Then you'll want to either attend or watch W.A.S.D, London's all-new games show. At 16:00 BST on Friday, April 8th, a panel of writers from some of the UK media's leading sites will offer advice for aspiring games journalists. PCGamesN Editor Richard Scott-Jones will be joined by colleagues Jen Rothery and Joe Robinson, as well as GAMINGbible's Imogen Donovan. Each of the panel has had very different routes into the business and a range of experiences since starting, and their sites approach games coverage in different ways, so the panel promises a rich mix of insight. In a little preview of that advice, Scott-Jones urges applicants not to be deterred by the industry's competitiveness. "We do get a lot of applicants for every vacancy because it's an enjoyable job, but for the same reason, a lot of those applicants tend to be aspirational. You'd be surprised how much you can stand out just by getting the basics right," Scott-Jones says. View the full site RELATED LINKS: Best indie games, What is W.A.S.D.?, Upcoming PC games

Genshin Impact mechanism: how to activate Posted: 08 Apr 2022 04:02 AM PDT Wondering how to activate the mechanism in Genshin Impact? The Genshin Impact 2.6 update has arrived, bringing with it plenty of new content, including Ayato, Ayaka's brother, a new Genshin Impact character on the current Genshin Impact banner - and a brand new area called the Chasm. Down in these mysterious underground mines, there are a series of tasks you are asked to undertake as part of a world quest chain called 'The Chasm Delvers'. One of these quests, titled 'The Heavenly Stone's Debris', requires you to talk to Zhiqiong and then activate the mechanism in the Chasm. There are three mechanisms you must activate to progress further. However, some players are having trouble activating these mechanisms due to the mysterious purple slime in the way. You can remove this slime using the Lumenstone Adjuvant gadget, but you must first upgrade the gadget to level two. Here's everything you need to know in order to activate the mechanism in the Chasm in Genshin Impact.
