Pretty ballsy of them to label that as an "Official" trailer.


Should've posted the Grit gameplay. Looks like a contender for GOTY.



"It's got a little bit of Fortnite and..."

*silence for 10 seconds as he struggles to remember another popular battle royale game*

"... whatever your favorite battle royale game is"

Ladies and gentlemen you can't make this shit up.
It’s sinking in that this game is not in fact a joke, and actually a legit thing. They are promoting/hyping a new game that looks like a TF2 demake, but worse. I’m sure it won’t have MTX’s or any of that bs either…

War Thunder fans are just a whole different breed of fanatic 🤨


Classified military documents have been leaked to the War Thunder forum for the third time.

The MMO military vehicle combat game from Gaijin Entertainment has a fervent fanbase that demands realism from the developers.

But once again that's gone too far, as classified documents of the DTC10-125 Chinese anti-tank missile have been leaked by fans in a further bid for realism

This previously happened with British and French tanks.

The post on the War Thunder forum was quickly removed, stating: "Materials related to the DTC10-125 are classified in China".

As per a post on Resetera, however, this could have been avoided entirely. Details of forthcoming content were posted on a recently closed publicly accessible development server, but specifics were only placeholder.

"So what happened was the developer added this shell to the server, but copy/pasted the values of the previous version as a placeholder," reads the post. "This poster saw this, flipped out, and went ahead and posted treason to correct what are publicly communicated as placeholder values."

"Our community managers immediately banned the user and deleted his post, as the information on this particular shell is still classified in China," the studio told PC Gamer. "Publishing classified information on any vehicle of any nation at War Thunder forums is clearly prohibited, and the game developers never use it in their work.

"While we understand that our players want the game to be as realistic as possible, we're kindly asking them not to do anything illegal and jeopardize their safety, as well as safety of our community team members. The developers of War Thunder do their best to research information on vehicles using legally available tools, and scandals like this are clearly not useful for our efforts."

they have seen some sense.
I find it funny they have such a short message, yet the president of the company had that long stupid essay/manifesto bullshit with all that sound and fury, signifying nothing. I want to see that douche and his little cronies crawling on their knees and beg for forgiveness. I don't want their forgiveness, but it would be hilarious and cathartic.

They see sense, because they have no other choice. It's either that or eternal damnation. The company as a whole can still screw off. The only reason I have any remote interest is because of FF16 and maybe that sequel to Valkyrie Profile.

I think Yoshi P is the only person keeping that company in check right now for sure. But the good news is that Yoshi-P is a real ************ and he doesn't deal with bullshit like that.

Well there is also Tetsuya Nomura, but given how insane and unstable he can be with KH, I am not sure whether he would support or denounce the NFTs

Trailer for BF2042 Season 1 is out:

Don't let the trailer distract you. The new contents that players are getting are 1 specialist, 2 helicopters, 2 weapons, 1 map, and your standard battle pass stuff.
Now I know why season one is called zero hours; I have zero hours clocked in this game, and it's likely gonna stay that way for a long time

Gamestop is once again in hot waters for the nth time

I'm so glad GameStop never hired me. I tried applying for them about three different times back in the early to mid 2010s. The third time I've would have been hired, as the manager did favor me, but they had so few hours that had no choice but to decline. I never regretted it though.

I imagined you as some kind of street preacher saying all of this.

Sounds like someone in a corner office finally Googled what the heck "bored apes" are.

Knowing Nomura, he would denounce them. The guy is crazy, but not greedily stupid.
He'd denounce them, and then make a two-hour cutscene showing NFTs being defeated by three pre-teens in ridiculous outfits using the power of friendship.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: EA will sooner drop the game than ditch specialists, because the whole thing was designed from the ground up to be a hero shooter in order to capture that sweet customization microtransaction money, and you won't get far in that field with generic, faceless soldiers.

Nomura is the Square Enix version of Kojima. He is just the crazy person who they let make games no matter how bonkers they are.
So what if....and this may sound crazy but hear me out.......We put Kojima and Nomura in a room together and let them make a game together......

Actually, I shouldn't give them ideas. The amount of egotistical auteurism could damage the fabric of spacetime and make this timeline even more stupid than it already is.

It just might rip the fabric of reality due to the sheer madness generated

It would take 40 years to come out.
