Ubisoft Pulls Licenses for The Crew, Makes the Game Completely Inaccessible to Buyers

From the same company trying to sell you a $130 version of Star Wars Outlaws.

From announcing a $130 edition of Star Wars Outlaws to pulling game licenses from those that bought The Crew, Ubisoft sure is on a roll this week.

The Crew was Ubisoft's open-world racing game that was pulled from sale back in December 2023. As of March 31, 2024, Ubisoft shut down the online servers for The Crew. This effectively made the game unplayable across all platforms, including: PC,...
 

Tim Sweeney Called Valve 'Assholes' in Email to Gabe Newell, Valve COO Says 'You Mad Bro?'

Tim Sweeney is always mad.

The antitrust lawsuit against Valve from Wolfire Games got a little spicy this week. To quickly get you up to speed: Wolfire claims that Valve uses its position with Steam to control game prices and muscle out competition. Though the initial lawsuit against Valve was dismissed, Wolfire amended their suit in May 2022 and the legal battle was back on.

It may have taken almost two years, but we are now starting to see some of the documents that...

Xbox Confirms PlayStation 5 Releases, Diablo 4 on Game Pass, and Future Hardware Plans

No, Starfield and Indiana Jones are not going multi-platform any time soon.

The heads of Xbox stayed true to their word and were indeed a part of a special edition of the Official Xbox Podcast. During today's pre-recorded podcast and subsequent blog post, head of Xbox Phil Spencer stated that four Xbox exclusives are going to be multi-platform releases. Is it Starfield? Indiana Jones? Gears of War? Halo?! No, no, no, and no. Though Spencer did not specify what those four titles ...

    Silenced QBU-88 in Battlefield 4 will Mute the Entire Server

    Yep, it looks like another major bug somehow slipped through the cracks at DICE and EA for Battlefield 4. It seems as though if anybody in the server equips a silencer on the QBU-88, everybody in the server will lose their sound.

    How exactly does something like this make it into a post-beta release?...

  • FXAA Ruins Texture Quality in Battlefield 4

    FXAA Ruins Texture Quality in Battlefield 4

    We already know how FXAA use tends to blur textures in games while simultaneously serving as a quick method of AA. However, it seems as though FXAA use in Battlefield 4 blurs textures more noticeably than in any other game.

    HardOCP suggest turning the "Antialiasing Post" setting to "Off" in order to fix the blurred texture issue. The other AA settings in the game should be ok to adjust to your own tastes, just leave Antialiasing Post "off."

  • USA vs Europe in Battlefield 4: Showdown Live Xbox One Event Slated for November 1

    I'm so confused by this thing it's not even funny. EA has announced the Battlefield 4: Showdown Live Europe vs. USA event that will pit two teams of 32 against each other.

    The Showdown will be live streamed through Xbox Live and will "mark the debut of Battlefield 4 Second Assault," which is an expansion for the game that includes four "fan-favorite" maps from Battlefield 3.

    Battlefield 4 Beta is Now Open to Everyone

    I hope some of you enjoyed the few day jumpstart on the Battlefield 4 beta, because as of today it is now available to everyone. All you need is the Origin client and an EA account, which most people probably have by now anyway.

    DICE 'Should be Slapped' for Battlefield 3 Unlocks

    During an event last night, Lars Gustavsson said that DICE has heard the criticisms of the unlocks system found in Battlefield 3 and hopes to rectify that with Battlefield 4.
    “We shipped Battlefield 3, which we should be slapped for, with probably the worst set ups ever,” Gustavsson said. “As a pilot, you had to fly your plane and only kill other planes with your cannons. You didn’t have any counter-measures; you didn’t have any missiles. And that’s basically for the bes

    Lars Gustavsson told reporters at a recent Battlefield 4 event that a third installment in the Battlefield: Bad Company series will happen, you know, eventually.
    "My feeling is that I would love to do it. For me, when we started the company with 1942, it was really a work of passion," Gustavsson said. "And then we worked our way through the era of different wars, and I loved them all, like my little babies. When it came to Bad Company, it was creative freedom; don't take yourself

    Day 2 of the Battlefield 4 Beta - Share Your Thoughts

    Here we are, on the second day of the Battlefield 4 beta and there is just one thing on my mind: What are your thoughts on the game so far?


    How are you liking "Levolution" that was talked up by DICE and EA? What about the changes made to the kit loadouts? Is it running as smoothly as you would expect it to on your system? What would you like to see added to the beta?

    In general, what are your thoughts on the beta thus far?...
