Id argue that the reason deathloops peak playercount is so low is because the pc version runs like shit for most people.

The Void Engine strikes again? At least Tango appears to have ditched the STEM Engine. Both Void and STEM have produced some beautiful graphics and environments, but every game using them has had performance issues on PC.

Shame that Void/STEM were based off IdTech 5 and not the vastly superior IdTech 6 and 7 engines.

Deathloop's peak player count is even lower than Prey's and Dishonored 2's. :| The game would have certainly benefited from the buzz created by the game ass userbase.
Was Deathloop even in the charts?
I would curious to see PS metrics, but well they are not available anyway as far as I remember. Something like Xbox Most Played and so on.

Yeah. I'm glad Arkane Austin isn't using it for Redfall, though UE4 isn't great when it comes to stuttering issues, either.

I don't think this is actual Avowed concept art.

I reverse image searched the first one and found the source. While they have done some game concept art, this particular piece is listed under personal art. It's also on tons of various wallpaper sites.

you sir have killed my art hype!

although thought they may be a chance that they might not be legit :(

#1 on the global charts on Steam. Still, peak players at 20k is lower than D2 at 22k and Prey at 24k.

True, hopefully they get that in order soon enough.

Wonder when we'll hear more about the soundtrack

Games like Forza Horizon and Flight Simulator make me really miss the 360's ability to implant your music either from your system's hard drive or from your network directly into the games that you were playing without affecting the sound effects. It was a great feature, and I've never quite understood why it didn't return on the Xbox One's OS.

You want this:

AirServer Xbox Edition

AirServer transforms your Xbox One into an all-in-one AirPlay + Google Cast + Miracast receiver.

I wonder if they knew Battlefield might be shifting when they decided on the Halo release date? I imagine platform holders and third parties are pretty close-knit when it comes to their release date plans.

Forza Horizon 3 had an awesome integration with Groove. Wish they would do the same with Spotify

Why didn't you buy it before it got delisted?

Because I'm dumb? It looks like it was delisted September 2020 and I already had a Series S pre-ordered by this time

You can still buy it on disc and even a digital download on CDKeys, just not from Microsoft. The expansions are probably a no go, you could buy it digitally as well but out of stock.

There's a Ultimate Edition Code on Eneba, but it costs US$200+. :(
Do you know if I can use a VPN to redeem a UK code?

I don't think the Ultimate Edition comes with the expansion pass, just cars and stuff.

Don't quote me on this but I don't think it matters were digital codes are from. A UK code will probably redeem fine outside of the UK. Please be sure though, not 100%. EDIT - Googling, apparently it is a thing but some do, some don't, use a VPN on Xbox.com to redeem from the region seems to be the method that works.

Ok, thank you very much! The Ultimate Edition doesn't come with the expansion pass indeed.
Last question: did "Play Anywhere" existed in 2017? Because I found a cheap PC code with the Hot Wheels expansion.

I don't know how you can watch this and not get crazy excited about Redfall. Different genre and all that but Arkane Austin is so talented I'm stoked about what they'll be able to put together.

I tried playing PREY couple of times and both times lost interest very quickly after the great intro segment. Should buckle up and finish it someday, perhaps.

So I've been playing Gears 5 campaign with a friend online for some time, and I like it and all - but I am having some pretty big techical issues to the point that it is affecting my enjoyment of the game.

Sound dissapears every now and then, graphical glitches like losing my weapon but still being able to shoot, I even turned first person after leaving a silverback and stuff like that. Is this how the Gears 5 experience is or is there something wrong my installation? Friend is also having a lot of issues but not as much as I have.

Playing on Series X and Gamepass if that's any help.

Weird. The biggest issue I had with Gears 5 was that when I returned from Quick Resume the game wouldn't respond to my inputs. Maybe a new update broke the game?
