Accustomed as we are to yelling at each other and hitting trees, several of the RPS treehouse undertook the task of halting Ragnorok, and found ourselves unequal to it. There’s a lot to enjoy in Tribes Of Midgard, but unfortunately most of it is obscured by an unbalanced economy that stymies progress into the fun stuff. Also, you will be naked for longer than you imagine. Alice Bee: I’m probably the most positive out of the group, in that I think this game could properly own if it didn’t keep massively getting in its own way....

Right now Ebuyer are taking orders for the 5800X3D at £349, a solid £110 discount from its UK RRP. A lot of folks have already jumped on this deal, using up Ebuyer’s existing stock, but you can order now for delivery on October 31st - and get a spooky Halloween upgrade for your PC. Get the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D for £349 (was £459) So what makes this chip so good?...

That timing isn’t coincidental, with the Reuters report saying that AppLovin hired advisors to work out an offer after news of the ironSource deal became public. Unity intend to buy ironSource for $4.4 billion in an all-stock deal, although that deal would need to be cancelled if they want to instead merge with AppLovin. The proposed ironSource deal did not go over well with many game developers who use Unity....

We predicted that it would have sold 6.8 million copies by around the 4th of March, which means today’s announcement that it has now sold that many copies technically puts it behind schedule. The figure was released as part of Embracer Group’s earnings report. Embracer are the Swedish conglomerate that owns Valheim publisher Coffee Stain. They also say they expect the game to sell a further 1-1.2 million copies this quarter, which would put it at 8 million sales by the end of June....

Almost all of these things - especially precise aim coupled with low time-to-kill - can put off new players immediately. Take the time to adjust and learn, though, and it can become incredibly rewarding when you’re popping heads or pulling off outrageous clutches. With this in mind we’ve put together a few tips and tricks to help you get to grips with Valorant a little faster if you’ve just started out....

It’s hard to get a good sense of what a new map will really be like when you’ve only had the chance to play a couple of matches on it, so my first note is a warning: Breeze is a little overwhelming. For starters, the map is huge. The plant sites seem really far away from each other, and in between them is a mixture of windy corridors mixed with extremely wide open spaces where it’s tough to pre-empt where your enemies might approach from....

Valve responded to players’ concerns at the end of May about the flood of bots affecting TF2, saying they were “working to improve things”. As such, two of the most critical changes in the update are the altered vote system, which now allows players to kick bots out of matches faster, and a fix preventing players from being able to change names during a matchmaking game. Both teams can now have a kick vote running at the same time, and a global vote can be running while a kick vote is happening....

Barely two days after forcing Warzone players to hoof it across the map on their own two legs, Infinity Ward today announced the return of vehicles as part of a small playlist update. To see this content please enable targeting cookies. Manage cookie settings — Infinity Ward (@InfinityWard) September 8, 2020 Warzone’s vehicles were temporarily removed in the wee hours of Sunday, following the discovery of an exploit that let drivers roam freely outside map bounds for a short period before shutting down the entire server....

My soft spot is for “meme decks” - decks built around an extremely powerful central interaction, that usually does something spectacular, but is either too unpredictable, too inconsistent, or just too situational to be genuinely competitive. Hearthstone’s last two expansions, Ashes Of Outland and Descent Of Dragons, added some bizarre cards to the pool, and as I highlighted with this feather-clogged frenzy of birds, there’s plenty of meme potential in them....

At the start of this year, we pinpointed Men Of War 2 as one of our most anticipated games of 2022. It’s a WW2-era real-time tactics sequel with a campaign that stretches across the Eastern and Western fronts. You’ll have the option of playing as the Allies or the Soviet Union, and there’s skirmish and multiplayer modes. Devs Best Way are touting improved AI and visuals, along with destructible environments....

Remember, you’ll want to match this gun up with something that’ll help you at range, because using the akimbo dual-wielding, you won’t be hitting many longshots with this: Muzzle: Agency Suppressor Barrel: 7.2" Task Force Laser: SWAT 5mw Laser Sight Ammunition: Salvo 30 Rnd Fast Mag Stock: Dual Wield...

If you’re unfamiliar with these four-wheeled terrors, they handle like regular cargo trucks, but have a gunner turret on top, as well as a built-in shop in the back. You can spend your cash to upgrade their armour, or ensure the turret doesn’t overheat as quickly, or even grant you a permanent UAV which’ll reveal nearby enemies’ positions. To get yourself an Armoured Truck in a regular Warzone match, you’ll first need to secure a green beeping box, many of which are scattered across Verdansk....

Zombie Royale tips and tricks Best Zombie Royale loadout Zombie Royale tips and tricks After playing a whole load of Warzone’s Zombie Royale since its launch, I’m gutted it won’t be here to stay after the spooky season. You might as well make the most of it for the time being though, so here are a few pointers to consider when playing Zombie Royale. Zombies can’t hit other zombies, even if they’re on the enemy team....

“Nah!” roars Aldridge, smashing his fist into a platter of raw sausages for emphasis. “I’ll tell you what we’re gonna do. We’re gonna give him the ability to press a button which gives him an extra turn on the campaign map. So he can have a second fight. And if he wins the fight, he gets even stronger. And then he can press the button again”. There is a brief silence....

As notE3 trundles onwards, today the festivities jack into the futureworld of Cyberpunk 2077. Though the new RPG from the makers of The Witcher is one of the most hotly-anticipated games of notE3, so far we’ve seen far more of SpongeBob SquarePants than any ChromeBob PleatherPants. No more! Today at 5pm (that’s 9am Pacific), CD Projekt Red will hold their first 25-minute “Night City Wire” stream, showing more gameplay and chatting with some of its makers....

Switch Operatives Get your camera out Character won’t move in Watch Dogs: Legion Usually the bug where your character can’t move happens when you’re jumping around buildings and sneaking about enemy property. Unfortunately, when moving around rooftops or different elevations, it seems like the game can get confused and stop letting you walk around. However, all is not lost! I’ve got a couple in-game fixes that’ll save you, unless you’re currently getting shot by enemies....

Lieve Oma captures the best of autumn: a walk through the woods with someone you love. We’re off out with our grandma to pick penny bun mushrooms (porcini), and have a bit of a natter along the way. It’s a game I can almost smell. I have much of the same planned for my own autumn, though I’ll probably not pick mushrooms because I don’t trust my judgment and do prefer my guts to be inside me....

On this page: How to get Foresight in Warzone What does Foresight do in Warzone? How to get Foresight in Warzone Foresight is purchasable for $20,000, so it’s very much a late-game thing. You can’t get it from buy stations either - you’ll need to head over to a special bunker in order to get it. These are the same bunkers you need to go to in order to buy the Bombardment killstreak after completing the zombie mission....
