10-Jun-2017, 5:47 pm Fyra Frost

It´s no secret that if the original Titanfall had been released on more platforms than Xbox One it would have been even a greater success, and that as developer Respawn Entertainment announced quite a while ago their FPS would get a sequel. “I guess EA announced a sequel, so I could play coy and pretend I don’t know anything about it, or… yeah. So we’re working on a sequel. No official name yet, but we’re working on that. That’s the main focus but we’re starting up a second team and doing some smaller stuff too. Small, exploratory, taking it slow! It’ll be multiplatform,” explained Vince Zampella, Respawn CEO. Now that the second installment is on the way for multiple platforms, many people are eager to get any information about what the developer is preparing for them, and that unavoidly leads to speculation and also leaks. This time we are on the second case, where the content planned for the special editions of Titanfall 2 has been leaked. Titanfall 2 Collector’s Standard Edition Titanfall 2 Collector’s Uber Edition Other than the game will be available for PC, Playstation 4 and Xbox One not much else has been revealed about the title but the World Premiere will happen in barely 48 hours, so stay tuned if you want to know more.

Overwatch: Post Launch Plans

07-Jun-2017, 5:09 pm Fyra Frost

It’s been 2 weeks since the very successful launch of Overwatch. Over 7 million players across 3 platforms bought the game in its first week alone. And now, people are curious as to what’s next for Overwatch. Here’s a short rundown of Eurogamer‘s interview with Overwatch’s game director Jeff Kaplan. Competitive play is still coming late June (projected date keeps shifting internally) will be more skill-based rather than the “progression-based” one implemented during the beta. There will be no safety nets – you’ll go down/lose points when you lose. There will be a dynamic queue just like quick match. The game will try to match you against a group of similar size. If the queue time takes too long, server will be less strict and try to match you against a different sized group. They will be keeping an eye on the matchmaking and are open to discussion. Server tick rates There’s a general misunderstanding in the community regarding tick rates 17 minute video explanation here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTH2ZPgYujQ) In most cases, the usual problems are with the latency not the tick/update rates The servers operate at 60Hz but the client update rate is lower(20Hz) They already have a high bandwidth option that allows for 60Hz update rate Currently limited to custom games If they switch quickmatch to 60Hz update rate, 20% of the population might not be able to play They’re looking for more feedback Hero balance McCree change is straightforward Nerf to fan the hammer damage They want McCree to be a counter for heroes like Tracer, Genji and Reaper He should not be able to shred tanks easily. Will be coming sooner than D.Va changes D.Va They’re still exploring options Will take longer to pinpoint. D.Va’s not in a horrible position, but could be better Platform implementation They expect the changes to hit all 3 platforms at the same time Play of the game They’re working on it but it’s not on the immediate horizon Would like to show more PotGs that are fun to watch They feel that they can refine how they are PotGs are shown. Possibly work on the camera angles about 70% of the current PotGs are actually really cool moments that people feel pretty happy about. New content parts of the team are already working on patches for the end of the year and early next year they don’t know what the right cadence should be. They want to get a feel from the community as to how much content is released. Hero releases. The team felt that releasing Mei, D.Va and Genji at the same time was too disruptive They will release heroes one at a time until they feel the game stabilizes They want to be careful about overdoing it with a patch. They have placed more hints about Sombra out there that the community hasn’t found yet Console crossplay No progress but they are very open-minded about it. They’re going to wait and gather feedback from developers and fans The post Overwatch: Post Launch Plans appeared first on News, updates from the DLCompare.com Blog.

The new ranked system will be broken up into 7 League Tiers and having the first 5 tiers (bronze to diamond) further broken down into 5 divisions. A player will be assigned an initial rank after 10 placement matches. A player will then gain/lose rank points after winning/losing ranked games. Once a player has earned enough points, he/she has a chance to move up to the next tier or division after winning a Promotion Match. If a player loses enough points, then he/she is given a chance to remain in the current tier or division by winning a Demotion Match. The Master and Grand Master Leagues will not have divisions, instead, players are given badges that show the total number of points they have earned in Master League for the season. The top 500 players are assigned Grand Master badges ranging from 500 to 1. The Grand Master rankings are to be updated on a daily basis. A few things to note regarding the seasons: seasons are expected to last somewhere around 8 to 12 weeks with the first season being slightly longer than the regular silenced players are restricted from participating in Hero League season rewards will include gold, portrait, and mounts the player’s highest ranking during the season is taken into account for the season rewards For more info, check out the official post from Blizzard Ranked Play Revamp.
