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.

    Halo Infinite Battle Pass Progression is Top Priority for Team

    343 Industries will continue to work on the painfully slow Battle Pass progression system.

    Jerry Hook, the head of design at 343 Industries says that the team will continue to work on the rather terrible progression system present in Halo Infinite's multiplayer.

    CD Projekt Red Shifts Cyberpunk 2077 Development Focus to Upcoming Expansion

    Expect to see fewer patches as development shifts to creating new content.

    CD Projekt Red will be allocating more resources towards development of Cyberpunk 2077's first expansion. In the studio's Q3 earnings report, the company still had most of its employees supporting Cyberpunk 2077 up through the end of September 2021. Today's word of a new shift will pull some of those employees away from support and on to creating fresh content for Cyberpunk 2077 as well as some Gwent projects....

    Believe. Er, Become.

    343 Industries and Microsoft just released a couple of new live-action trailers for Halo Infinite this weekend. Actually, they released a long version and a short version of the same trailer, perhaps for those with different attention spans.

    The long version of the trailer is entitled "Forever We Fight" and takes viewers through different periods of time. We see people rising up to the challenge in front of them and overcoming obstacles be...

    D.C. Douglas seems to have intentionally broken his NDA.

    The voice actor behind Albert Wesker from the Resident Evil franchise seems to have intentionally broken an NDA with Capcom to share confidential concept art for the unannounced Resident Evil 4 remake. The art was captured and shared via Twitter from the @BewareCreepyVAs account. The art seems to show Wesker's appearance in what may be the Separate Ways portion of the still unannounced remake.

    Battlefield 2042 Update 2 Changelog

    You can now use other weapons besides the PP-29!

    As promised, DICE rolled out Update #2 for Battlefield 2042 today. Though not as substantial as the upcoming Update #3, today's update introduces some very welcome adjustments.

    For instance, DICE has reduced the bullet spread on all weapons (except shotguns). This should mean that weapons beyond the PP-29 and SVK are actually viable to use now. I haven't tested them myself yet, but the reception to these initial adjustments...

    Halo Infinite's First Multiplayer Event Frustrates Fans

    Gated progression is the biggest issue upsetting fans.

    Halo Infinite's first event, Fracture: Tenrai, gives players a chance to earn some free rewards such as the samurai-looking Yoroi Armor. Unfortunately, fans are already running into issues with the way progress is gated.

    Fracture: Tenrai is a free event available to everyone playing this free-to-play release of the Halo Infinite multiplayer. There are 30 tiers of rewards to earn. Much like the much-criticized Battle...

    DICE Details Two Updates Worth of Battlefield 2042 Fixes

    The studio provides a roadmap of the next two updates.

    To say that Battlefield 2042 is in dire need of a lot of attention would be a severe understatement. This game launched in a far worse state than even the infamous Battlefield 4. To list every issue present with the release version of Battlefield 2042 would take far too long. Besides, I've already included several lists pointing out broken or missing features in previous news postings about the game since its release.
