In Republic of Pirates we get to build and take care of our own settlement among turquoise waters and swaying palm trees, and it's been out since a few days ago on PC. There is also a demo to test, so raise your flag and take it for a test ride. Here there is a resource-based economy to consider as well as diplomatic relations to nurture, but when the words are spoken, real-time sea battles can also be resorted to. To help with that, you must recruit and upgrade well-known pirate captains, so they can use their abilities to liberate islands and defeat other factions. There are eight different ship types to take advantage of, and you can also customize them with various emblems and cosmetic details. The game has a campaign of around 30 hours, but you can also play in a free mode where you can adjust various settings and play a little as you like.

Ubisoft finally revealed the gaming world's worst-kept secret last week, and Beyond Good & Evil: Anniversary Edition , which is a remaster, was finally released yesterday. If you are interested and curious about how the new version compares to the original, the YouTube channel ElAnalistaDeBits has made a handy comparison video. Among other things, we see samples of slightly improved mountain geometry, vegetation in 3D instead of just flat textures that stick out, properly polished character models as well as more advanced lighting and shadows. But basically, it's the same game mechanics running in the background, so those who liked the original will feel right at home. And there will be more Beyond Good and Evil , because Ubisoft has added some new material to the remaster that will connect the plot with that of the sequel that has been in the works for 15 years, and confirmed the other day that work on the game is still ongoing.

And game creators can add specific events that are highlighted. There are a number of solutions for recording your computer gaming, including OBS and Shadowplay. Now Valve is getting into the game by integrating its own solution directly into Steam, which they call Game Recording. The feature is now in beta and includes several features, such as background recording that continuously captures what is happening and saves it to a specific location on one's computer, up to a specific storage limit. You can also use your Steam Overlay to quickly jump back to, for example, see what the hell it was that killed you. You can of course also start and stop recordings whenever you want. The system also includes a timeline where you can mark points of interest you might want to look at later, and games can also include support for marking specific events that happen, such as dying or achieving something spectacular. The clips can then be edited with a set of simpler tools, saved and sent between different devices. Recording is also supported on Steam Deck and can also be used in non-Steam games as long as they allow Steam Overlay. How To To test the beta version, open Steam, go to Settings – Interface – Beta Participation and select one of the beta versions. After restarting Steam, go to Settings - Game Recording and select the recording method you prefer.

There have been a lot accusations over the past few years about cheaters and hacks in Battlefield 2042. There have been no real proof other than we know that software are available to buy with which you can cheat in the game, cheats like wallhack, aimbot etc. EA have always claimed that there are minimum amount of cheaters in the game and not long ago they even switched out the anti-cheat software to their own software claiming it was better and would stop cheaters. Well, it's not better, it does not stop cheaters and EA blatantly ignores reports and evidence. In the last couple of weeks new evidence have emerged of a well known content creator and pilot, LukeSkyfarmer, cheating in the game and with those cheats beating word records. Of course the content creator claims the evidence to be fake even when more and more videos, clips and other evidence is being exposed. Luke is also known to associate with known streamsnipers, being toxic and running a YouTube channel with videos harassing other players. Many of his know companions such as CptDaddyHind, Salim and some others have also been caught cheating, some of them have stepped forward and confirmed it all, some have gone under ground and some still denies it. What is EA and Dice saying about all of this? Nothing, because their anti-cheat software would of course detect cheating that is this obvious. This latest cheating controversy have once again divided the Battlefield community into two camps, the ones that have the evidence and exposes the content creator and the ones that state it as fake. The latter part is of course friends of his. Streamer and content creator AsheBF broke down some clips of LukeSkyfarmers flying, and Ashe who is a very good pilot himself and the victim of year long streamsniping had some interesting points to make. Expand to see video. Twitter post of CptDaddyHind cheating. For all the drama, leaks and more, go to Ashe's Twitter and follow along. What are your thoughts? Real or fake?

Everyone will meet Jabba the Hut, but a specific mission costs extra. When Star Wars Outlaws was shown off and given a release date last week, it was clear that Ubisoft is trying to lure buyers to the more expensive versions with exclusive content. The standard edition costs $69.99, but for an extra $40 for the Gold Edition or an extra $60 (as much as a full game) for the Ultimate Edition, you get to start playing three days before the real premiere, plus the season pass (and with the future dlc) and some cosmetic stuff. As well as a mission with Jabba the Hut missions that you can't play if you buy the regular game. This move received stinging criticism from many, and now Ubisoft has commented on the matter. PC Gamer is told that Jabba the Hutt and his cartel are included in the game for all buyers. But for the specific assignment mentioned in the pre-booking information, you have to pay more. "To clarify, Jabba the Hutt and the Hutt Cartel are one of the main syndicates in Star Wars Outlaws and will be part of the experience for everyone who purchases the game, regardless of edition. The 'Jabba’s Gambit' mission is an optional, additional mission with the Hutt Cartel along Kay and Nix's journey across the Outer Rim. This mission will be available to those who purchase the season pass or an edition of the game which includes the season pass." Star Wars Outlaws is coded by in Sweden Malmo-based Massive Entertainment and thus published by Ubisoft. The release date is August 30, and it can be played on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series.

In the wake of the Fallout series on Amazon Prime, several Fallout games have "more than doubled" their Steam concurrent player stats (according to Steamdb). The series is of course an obvious reason, but Bethesda (coincidentally!) has also teased some games, and Fallout 76 is currently free to try for doom-seekers. That, Fallout 4 and Fallout: New Vegas have all received major boosts. That's about doubled, tripled, yes, even quadrupled the numbers for the Fallout games. And there will be more: Fallout 4 will receive its next-gen upgrade to the PS5 and Xbox Series consoles on April 25. Anything other than many players would, of course, be a disaster. And Fallout 5 …? Well then, it's coming. But it will be after The Elder Scrolls VI release, and when it will happen we don't even dare to guess.

The Godfather II On New Year's Eve 1958 Hyman Roth not only celebrated his birthday, he also celebrated the successful expansion of the Corleone family, successfully lead by Don Michael Corleone for fifteen years now, into Cuba. But the celebrations did not last long when suddenly "la revolucion" started and all hell breaks loose. Michael and Hyman manage to escape with most of the other family members but Aldo Trapani (the main protagonist in The Godfather) gets killed - just in time for five new families to threaten the Corleone family's control over New York, Florida and Las Vegas. As one of Aldo Trapani's closest soldiers, the player jumps into the role of Dominic to help Michael and the Corleone family win the war as well as to build a family of his now. Looking over Dominic's shoulder, the player moves freely through three cities depicting a New York, Florida and Cuba from the late '50s/early '60s traveling between them by airplane. Connected by the main storyline, the main goal of Dominic is to grow his family and destroy the other five families. This is done in two main steps: Taking over businesses and killing so-called "Made Man". Taking over a business is done the same way as in the predecessor: Enter the shop/joint/factory/construction site, fight through the enemy guards and find the person with the Godfather-sign over his head. That is the one the player needs to threaten until he gives up his resistance and pays his dues to Dominic from now on instead of the other family. Each business owner has his own weak spot as well as a breaking point. A weak spot ranges from destroying inventory to punching him or her in the face, and gives a 25% bonus on the monetary outcome. But if the player pressures the owner to much, he either dies from the torture or reaches his breaking point. Then he gets aggressive, cannot be intimidated anymore and attacks without mercy. Is the intimidation successful however, the player gets a one-time cash advance and gains money from the joint every day. In addition there are several rackets combined in a crime ring. Once the player controls it, he immediately gains a bonus until he loses one of the rackets in the crime ring. This goes for his enemy as well. When the player takes over a business of a crime ring, the bonuses like bullet-proof vests for all family members or brass knuckles for higher melee damage are instantly removed. That's why the enemy families do not just sit by and let Dominic take their businesses one by one. So the player has to hire guards to protect the businesses. In case of an attack, he can also send one of his soldiers to help in the defense. This soldier or so-called "Made Man", is initially discovered and invited by the player to join his family while hanging out at the various safe houses and rackets. Each of them has a specialization. While one might be good at planting bombs, the other is a safe cracker very useful to rob banks and loot all the various safes in the city to get an achievement. As the player progresses through the game, he cannot only hire more family members, but can also promote a few of his soldiers. This allows them to learn a second and even third profession on top of their initial one. It is also possible to upgrade certain skills like Survival (stay longer conscious once out of health) of a family member, in return for hard-earned cash. When a made man is downed by enemy fire, he does not immediately get transferred to the next hospital or police station. Instead there is a time window in which everyone can revive the other with a shot of adrenaline. If it's too late, the player respawns at the hospital/police station and loses some money while his made man is out of the picture for a certain amount of time. This is also true for the player if he has a medic on his team, otherwise he goes directly to jail or the hospital. The amount of time it takes them to get back on your side can be reduced by using favors. Favors are handed out by random people with a sign over their head on the streets and by high-ranking officials. Both give the player a mission which can involve killing or beating someone up, blowing a business (even one of the player's) to hell or something similar. The difference is, that the favor of an official can be saved for later like immediately rebuilding a bombed business. Favors of random people instead come in the form of money rewards or kill conditions. Kill conditions are needed to get an enemy made man. Just shooting them only puts them in the hospital. To take them permanently out the picture, the player needs to make an example of the man by fulfilling the kill condition. Shoving a made man from the roof of a building, putting a bullet between his eyes and such are examples for such kill conditions. Once all made men of a family have been eliminated forever, the player can deal the final blow to the rival family: killing their Don and blowing up their compound. All while dealing with the police that hunts you down just for forgetting to silence a witness of a crime. The game also features a multiplayer mode that ties in with the single player campaign. Upon entering the multiplayer mode, the player chooses one of his family members he has hired in single-player and takes on his role. During his participation in the four game modes Team Deathmatch, Demolition Assault (blow up three objects in enemy territory), FireStarter (torch barrels, gas and propane tanks to rack up scoring multiplicators), Safecracker (bust a safe and hold the position for more points), the player then earns honor points for his family member. These are used in single player to buy a new weapon license for that soldier, which allows him to use the higher level weapons the player finds scattered around the city and can be handed to him.
