Who’s going to be the cover star of NBA 2K21

Posted on by

The 2019-20 NBA season was cut short, which was a bummer considering fans were anticipating an all-time great NBA Finals matchup between LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo.With that, as well as the untimely passing of Los Angeles Lakers’ superstar Kobe Bryant, fans are wondering what NBA 2K will look like and how it will respond to the canceled season as well as the passing of one of the game’s all-time greats.

NBA 2K21 is awaited very much by the gamers as the last edition NBA 2K20 was filled with a lot of bugs that were corrected over with several patch updates. Fans are hoping that the developers will make sure that NBA 2K21 is not infected with bugs and they can enjoy the gameplay without any errors or glitches.

Microsoft and 2K Games have a very good understanding and several of the games have been available with great discounts or even free playable days on the Xbox One console. It is why everyone expects that the NBA 2K21 game can be launched at the same event where Microsoft launches Xbox Series X. The upcoming Xbox X console along with Sony PS5 will ray tracing, SSD upgrades, CPU and GPU improvements which makes it perfect for a game such as NBA 2K21.

If 2K Games decides to have Doncic, Young, or Williamson in the cover, they are likely to be in the “NBA 2K21” Standard Edition. The Legend Edition is usually reserved for retired players who have once been icons of the league. Many fans are rooting to have Kobe Bryant back as another way to pay tribute for the late Los Angeles Lakers star. But there is also a chance that Vince Carter could land in the Legend cover as season 2019-20 has been announced to be his final year in the league.

As for the release date of “NBA 2K21,” nothing is set in stone yet. While it is still likely for the game to be launched in September, as usual, fans should also hold out on a small chance it could be slightly delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Call of Duty: Mobile could be getting a new map soon

Posted on by

Call of Duty: Mobile is teasing a new map via Twitter, which seems quite similar to Rust from Modern Warfare 2. The dev team has not revealed any details about the new map yet. It will announce additional details along with the map’s release date in the coming weeks.

Rust has enjoyed a resurgence in popularity recently thanks to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. The Modern Warfare Season 2 update was headlined by Rust, and the map has been featured in most 24/7 playlists in that game since. Considering Rust’s popularity, it’s likely to be just as big of a hit in Call of Duty Mobile when it releases.

The addition of Rust will just be the latest addition in Call of Duty Mobile’s growing roster of maps, modes, and features. For example, the Call of Duty Mobile Steel Legion update recently launched, giving fans of the game a new Battle Pass along with a variety of content from the Black Ops series.

The Call of Duty Mobile Steel Legion update also added a mode inspired by Modern Warfare’s Gunfight. Like Gunfight, Call of Duty Mobile’s Showdown mode is a 2v2 mode that challenges players to team up with one other teammate to win five rounds in close quarters combat situations.

Fans won’t have to wait long, however, to know if Rust is indeed coming to Call of Duty: Mobile. Activision will be releasing a public test build for the game next week. The public test build will include features from the game’s next update. Players will likely find out whether the map will be coming to the game or not with the test build’s release.Rust is a comparatively smaller multiplayer map that was released in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Recently, it dropped with season two in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare as well. Finally, to enjoy all the features in the game, players can Buy Black Ops 4 COD Points from z2u.com at a reasonable price.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons had disappeared from major Chinese online retailers

Posted on by

Pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong have been pushed inside, like many of us around the world, as the coronavirus pandemic disrupts everyday life. School, work, and other events have been moved online — including protests. Activists are using Nintendo’s new, idyllic life simulator Animal Crossing: New Horizons to support Hong Kong protesters’ five demands.

But on Friday morning, the game had disappeared from major Chinese online retailers Taobao and Pinduoduo, reports Reuters. Nintendo began selling the Switch in China in December 2019, but has not released New Horizons there; interested parties must purchase foreign versions of the game to play it. Only three games are officially available for the Switch in China: New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and Super Mario Odyssey.

It’s not immediately clear that New Horizons has been pulled because of the protests in-game, but the game’s removal comes after increased news coverage of the actions, popularized by Hong Kong activist Joshua Wong. Reuters also reported there’s no indication whether the game was pulled as the result of “a directive from China’s content regulator or a voluntary act by politically sensitive e-commerce platforms.” In addition, if you are in need of Cheap Animal Crossing New Horizons Furniture, you can visit our website 5mmo.com.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons has been regularly trending on social media since its release. As such, fans have been using Animal Crossing: New Horizons for Honk Kong protests from home. One notable example of the protests occurred when pro-democracy activist Joshua Wong created a “Free Hong Kong, revolution now” sign on his Animal Crossing: New Horizons island and shared it to Twitter. According to Reuters, this has led to Animal Crossing: New Horizons being pulled from grey market sites in China.

The crackdown merely eliminates the most convenient means of getting Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Chinese players can still acquire it from the Nintendo eShop by switching their region; from an independent store that has imported the game without drawing attention to itself; or by contacting a Taobao seller privately and buying it under the table.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons has received an emergency patch to issue with one of Bunny Day’s egg types

Posted on by

Animal Crossing: New Horizons has released an update tweaking the drop rate for Bunny Day eggs after receiving a wave of complaints from fans.The Nintendo Switch game has been a huge success since launch, but the Easter event – which lasts 12 days up to Easter Sunday on April 12 – is proving to be a nuisance for some players.In preparation for Bunny Day, Zipper T Bunny tasks players with crafting a number of seasonal recipes which require special eggs.

Soon, Zipper’s aerial oppression of players’ islands will take a significant blow. Nintendo of Japan Customer Support tweeted that winds of change will usher in the Animal Crossing: New Horizons 1.1.4 update, which is available for download now. The Japanese patch notes are sparse and quite vague, but a rough translation yields, “During the Easter event, the appearance rate of some eggs has been adjusted until April 11, 2020.” Presumably to help players catch up at the event’s end, high egg rates will return on April 12.  Details are quite fuzzy, but players are reporting an apparent reduction in Bunny Day balloon spawns. Unfortunately, disgruntled fishers will be annoyed to know that the disproportionate rate of water eggs seems unchanged for now, so their Animal Crossing nightmare may be far from over.

If you’ve been playing Animal Crossing: New Horizons recently you will have been forced into the Bunny Day event, where Zipper the ‘rabbit’ has infected the island with countless eggs, replacing many of the normal resources players are trying to collect on their daily adventures. Furthermore,You can buy Cheap Animal Crossing Bells at z2u.com by using the code “Z2U” for a 3% discount.

Despite the fact that Zipper is objectively terrifying, this eggstravaganza has caused chaos for players who don’t care much for the Bunny Day exclusive crafting items, which include an absurd variety of egg-infused furniture, and outfits that turn your islander into an egg. You can check out the full list of Bunny Day DIY Recipes here. Many players have turned to social media to address the issue, putting Zipper in the firing line.

It’s a lot to deal with and can be overwhelming for those players who just want to go about their day fishing for Sea Bass. Water Eggs have replaced some of the fish in the water, meaning you can waste precious tools reeling fish-shaped, bait nibbling eggs out of a pond. Here’s every egg type currently in the game – It’s a nightmare.

The world is experiencing a shortage of surgical masks and respirators

Posted on by

The world is experiencing a shortage of surgical masks and respirators. Countries around the globe are scrambling to bulk up their mask supplies to help curb the spread of the novel coronavirus and allow medical professionals to safely treat infected patients. It’s crucial for health care workers, doctors, and nurses on the front lines of the disease to have the proper protective gear to lower the risk of contracting Covid-19, but America’s mask supply is being so rapidly depleted that even the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has suggested homemade masks, like bandanas or scarves, “as a last resort” for health care providers in “settings where face masks are not available.”

Public health officials warned about a strain in the supply chain for masks and other equipment in late February, when the pandemic started to spread in the US, which prompted regular people to snatch up medical supplies. By hoarding masks and respirators, civilians have contributed to the shortage of personal protective equipment (PPE) for health workers. (The US government is also partly to blame for overwhelming the health care system by not taking fast enough action to test citizens.) In addition, our site z2u.com has a large quantity of safe N95 Mask For Sale.

Hospitals across America are running out of supplies, and medical professionals online are urging the public to donate whatever they’ve stockpiled to local health care facilities. Masks and respirators are typically designed to be worn only once, but in the face of dwindling inventory, some health care providers are asked to re-wear their gear. Alarmed by the lack of protective equipment, doctors, nurses, and health workers are sharing anecdotes about the risk this brings to them and their patients, calling on people to donate what they can.

Earlier this week, Pence also asked construction companies to donate their mask inventory, especially respirators, to local hospitals and “forgo making new orders.” The production teams behind some TV medical dramas, like Fox’s The Resident, ABC’s The Good Doctor, and Grey’s Anatomy spin-off Station 19, have donated boxes of masks, gloves, and gowns to local hospitals. At the community level, people are using grassroots organizing tactics to find and distribute unused protective gear and supplies to local facilities, Buzzfeed News reported. ProjectN95 is just one group facilitating mask donations, and other GoFundMe-powered groups are working to import masks from China. Americans are receiving aid from abroad, most notably from Taiwan, which pledged to donate 100,000 masks a week, and Chinese billionaire Jack Ma, who donated 1 million masks and 500,000 test kits.

Windows 10’s volume controls could be getting a big overhaul in the near future

Posted on by

One of the most essential features of Windows 10 – the operating system’s volume controls – could be getting a big overhaul in the near future. As Windows Latest reports, a new preview build of Windows 10, Build 19577, contains code that suggests there will be new volume controls.

Back in 2018, a leak suggested that Microsoft has been planning on significantly changing Windows 10’s volume control in a future release. However, despite Microsoft updating Windows 10 several times over the years, the operating system’s volume controls have remained unchanged.At the moment, the way you control the volume in Windows 10 is pretty basic, but it looks like Microsoft is planning to radically overhaul it so that it’s much more useful.

It appears that Microsoft is planning to move all these controls to the new volume flyout, which you can access by clicking the volume icon in the system tray.Currently, taskbar flyout only allows users to control the volume of the headphone or speakers, but a future Windows 10 update will also allow you to access the media controls. In addition, our site z2u.com has a large quantity of safe Windows 10 Home Product Key For Sale.

The new flyout also shows the album cover of the music along with the app name that’s playing the music. In theory, the new flyout should work with all the existing apps that already support Windows 8 era left-aligned volume flyout.In our testing, the updated flyout launches only when we click on its icon in the system tray. It currently doesn’t support keyboard multimedia keys.

There’s a chance that the new volume controls would become available for users in the Windows Insider Program later this year, but the arrival of the updated volume bar is still uncertain.Obviously, these changes will not ship with Windows 10’s 20H1 (version 2004 update), which has been finalized and is set for public rollout in April/May 2020.

Escape From Tarkov is currently not available on Steam

Posted on by

Escape from Tarkov has been available in early access since 2016, slowly amassing players, but since its release it’s only been available for pre-order from the game’s official site. The survival shooter has exploded in popularity recently, having received a major update in October 2019 which introduced Hideouts as well as several new items and bug fixes, and briefly became the most viewed game on Twitch thanks, in part, to some prominent streamers picking it up over the holidays. This has many players wondering if a Steam release is planned. It’s been a while since Russian developer Battlestate Games has commented on this, but all signs suggest that Escape From Tarkov will come to Steam… eventually.

Fans seem to certainly be in favor of the idea of this video game making an appearance on Steam. In fact, some fans have even created petitions for the game to arrive on the launcher. Hopefully, the developers will take some notes rather soon. Although the video game isn’t yet available on the platform, one YouTube user has released a video of what would be like when using a Steam Controller.

The clearest evidence is from a 2016 interview with WCCFTech, in which developer Pavel Dyatlov says that the game will come to Steam once it reaches 1.0. “We will first release the game on our platform and then we will launch on Steam, that’s the plan,” Dyatlov said, also mentioning that the game could come to consoles after its PC release.

As for a release date, the FAQ states that the game will undergo some beta testing on Steam, meaning it will probably be released there sometime before the full 1.0 launch. It’s also worth noting that both versions of the game will share the same servers, so the playerbase won’t be divided based on their launcher choices. Despite a lengthy period of radio silence on the topic, Escape From Tarkov is in all likelihood still slated to get a Steam release in the future, although an exact timeframe still remains to be seen. Moreover, z2u.com provides Cheap Escape from Tarkov money for players. As an online in-game currency store for many years, we’ve received great reputation for our reliable service.

Temtem Developer Bans Almost 900 Cheaters

Posted on by

You might have heard about the indie hit Temtem. It’s a game “inspired by” Game Freak’s long-running Pokémon RPG series and wants to be the very best creature collection MMO on the market. While it’s still yet to arrive on the Switch, the title recently launched on Steam. On its first day, its servers crumbled under the demand and since then it’s been growing in popularity.

Now that it’s been available for a few weeks, developer Crema Games has decided to unleash its first wave of bans. According to a recent tweet by the company, it’s banned “almost” 900 players. Every user who was banned was “100%” confirmed as either a cheater or an individual who abused exploits intentionally.

Crema didn’t leave it at that, either. In a series of follow-up tweets, it said wasn’t done and would keep detecting and banning, as there’s no place in the Archipelago for cheaters. The developer then reassured followers it had re-checked over 100 accounts and explained how “every single one” was a “legit” ban.The remaining tweets informed players not to trust cheaters, as they apparently “just want to know more” about the bans, so they can avoid them in the future. If you want to Buy Temtem Pansun, we 5mmo.com can give you a very low price, welcome to buy.

Despite the double-checking, plenty of Twitter users responded taking issue with the no tolerance policy, asking for Crema to consider appeals. Based on that feedback, the developers have relented. They later tweeted saying that banned players may send an email to support@cremagames.com with the subject “Ban appeal” and including the account’s in game ID or username.

In an online game, the worry with exploits or cheats is that they can ruin the experience of other players or damage the game’s trading economy between Temtem tamers. Crema’s swift justice may seem heavy-handed, but it’s good to see them setting the tone early on. For those who genuinely believe they used an exploit unintentionally to a degree that appeared intentional, there’s now an outlet to beg a pardon.

World of Tanks developer has opened a new office in Guildford

Posted on by

Wargaming has opened a new office in Guildford, UK. The World of Tanks creator has hired Sean Decker to lead the new outfit, which is looking to initially house a 25-person development team. The new outfit will work on an ‘unannounced free-to-play multiplatorm MMO title’, which uses the Unreal Engine.

Decker is a 17-year video game development veteran. He spent 12 years at EA in various roles, including senior producer at Maxis (working on SimCity), Executive Producer at DICE, and then later VP and general manager at DICE (where he worked on games such as Mirror’s Edge and Battlefield). He was also VP at EA LA and VP of EA’s Play4Free label. In 2013 he joined CCP as senior vice president, working on Eve Online.

The new developer is based in Guildford, England. It technically started business in November 2018 before acquiring and incorporating the nearby Edge Case Games. However, a fire in July this year meant the developer was forced to find a new home. By the way, you can buy cheap WOT Gold from z2u.com, where you can enjoy a 3% discount by using the code “Z2U”.

That new office has now been opened and is home to 68 members of staff, with dozens more positions currently open. The company eventually wants to grow to around 150, according to studio head Sean Decker.

Wargaming UK represents an evolution of Wargaming’s network, which extends to over 4500 employees across 18 network locations. Wargaming CEO Victor Kislyi said of the launch:

“For Wargaming, the UK studio is a really exciting step in our expansion – and we are looking forward to releasing information on their new project. It is going to be big. It was a pleasure to celebrate with the team, and we are looking forward to watching them create something special.”

World of Warcraft’s increased subscriber counts following WoW Classic’s release

Posted on by

When World of Warcraft Classic went live in August 2019, we pondered the question of its long-term viability. Some of us believed that it would have legs, at least as long as Blizzard continued to provide updates, while others expected it to be a flash in the nostalgia pan.

It’s still early, but at this point it looks like those who bet on its durability are going to come out on top. Activision said during today’s Q4 financial presentation that World of Warcraft’s “active player community” at the end of 2019, defined as players with monthly or longer subscriptions, was more than double what it was at the end of the second quarter, less than two months prior to the launch of Classic.

PC Gamer reports that subscriber numbers have more than doubled since the launch of WoW Classic. Blizzard president J. Allen Brack made this announcement during a Q4 financial Q&A call. He says that the company is “committed” to continuing support of both retail and classic versions of the game “over the long term.” Brack says that engagement numbers for WoW Classic has been especially “strong in the East” where it enjoys particularly high levels of player retention. In addition, if you are in need of Cheap World of Warcraft Classic Gold, you can visit our website 5mmo.com.

Blizzard hasn’t released subscriber figures publicly since 2015, but the 2014 milestone represents a 10 million subscriber peak alongside the release of Warcraft’s fifth expansion, Warlords of Draenor, that year. The all-time record of 12 million subscribers, hit in 2010 with the release of Cataclysm, still stands.

Battle for Azeroth didn’t waste any time in smashing other records for Blizzard, though. Last month’s release quickly became the fastest-selling World of Warcraft expansion to date, with 3.4 million copies sold within 24 hours.

But elsewhere in the MMORPG space, the situation is less favourable. Wildstar developer Carbine Studios, which modelled much of its game after early versions of Warcraft, was shut down by publisher NCSoft earlier this month.
