Velocity Gamer: So Modern Warfare 3 has been released and the sales figures have already destroyed anything else that's released in recent years and may be the biggest entertainment launch in history. Well, I've always wondered...
Players are using hacks to gain an advantage in the game, such as aimbots and wall hacks. The first gives a player superhuman aiming abilities, while a wall hack lets you see through walls to gauge where other players are.
“These hacks are typically used by PC players, but those playing on PC via Xbox Game Pass are identified as Xbox players in multiplayer lobbies.”
This is pretty dumb to say the least.
Don't Gamepass online games have anti-cheat systems?
If not, that's pretty dumb. Microsoft need to fix that asap.
I mean, COD games was always filled with hackers, nothing new. I can’t blame MS on this. Activision had years to try and fix this. Might take MS some time to make some change.
The Yokai's Wrath bundle was released despite previous guarantees by Activision that A.I. would not be used for final assets, per the report. Instead, Activision assured developers it was simply for internal concepts. That, of course, was not followed through. For what it's worth, per the PlayStation Store, 2,400 COD Points cost $19.99, meaning players potentially spent real-life money on a skin that was not created by an actual human.
As far as A.I. use goes across Activision, a source told Wired that 2D artists are utilizing A.I. to aid their work. That is a result of mass layoffs, in which many 2D artists were impacted. “A lot of 2D artists were laid off,” the source named Noah said. “Remaining concept artists were then forced to use A.I. to aid in their work.” Mandatory A.I. trainings have been implemented, according to Noah.
Activision. And MS. They will ruin console gaming forever.
Oh and where the FRIGGIN outrage people? When Sony makes a remaster of a masterpiece single player story driven game, they get roasted. But this, this, goes unnoticed? Then don’t complain that you aren’t getting enough single player story games.
"The Yokai's Wrath bundle was released despite previous guarantees by Activision that A.I. would not be used for final assets, per the report."
We're talking concept art? Because as of right now there's no way to generate a final 3D model with final textures. So the final assets don't use AI. That's not to say that it sucks for 2D artist that it's easier to generate visual ideas and build from them leading to less 2D artists needed (really sucks), but are they say the final concept art was completely AI generated and then 3D artists built from that? And yes, I'll pile on that Activision as a publisher and their developers I have experience with suck and they'll do whatever, ethics be damned.
Wow I can just imagine the likes of Activision, EA and Ubi etc having an army of AIs creating overpriced crap and the fanboys just lapping it up. I hope the AIs have a good union.
I understand why people think it’s good idea to Unionize to fight back against such things but it’s not. It’s a bad idea. It’s activisions wet dream to have these pumped out weekly by some AI. Protect your neck!
Everything you need to know about Modern Warfare III coming to Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass.
So what you're saying is that 89.3 million beer mats have been sold? I'm sorry, I couldn't resist :D
If its a true number, then it's utterly terrifying. And to thing that I used to worry about games never becoming socially accepted and doing commercially well.
Is anyone else getting bored of gaming?
I am a hardcore gamer, but over the last month, even with the "blockbusters" I am soooo bored of gaming!!!
Especially multiplayer games, single player games like Skyrim, I guess Saints Row: The Third is fun.
I remember my PS2 days, so many memories, so many laughs so many awesome games, but this gen, for me personally its the same stuff every year.
I'm talking about COD, but I'm talking about other games aswell, Assassin Creed has turned into a cash cow now, so has Need For Speed. My fav game Killzone 2, went downhill when Guerilla Games tried to turn it into a COD type game.
When people explained BF3 to me, when i saw videos, it looked damn hardcore and intense. When i played it....some problems in the game were in COD.
1. Spawning is a problem
2. Why is it a fast paced type game, i wanted a slow paced team-oriented hardcore game. You see people just running around jumping out of corners.
3. BF3 is not a typical Battlefield game, they have made it quicker and more COD-ish.
MAG (Massive Action Game) as many of you don't like it, was more of a team oriented game then Battlefield. MAG is a great game and for you to win a game, you HAVE to work as a team, you can NEVER go rambo.
BF3 does not require teamwork, and you don't really get any teamwork, you don't have to rely on your team. Which is what Battlefield was all about no?
Look at Capcom, ruined everything
Square Enix ruined everything
Those 2 companies alone last gen gave me so many memories, for my childhood i had FF & all the Capcom fighting games!, Now where are those games gone!
Oh and then there's buying DLC so you actually can have a complete game.
I wonder what mario sold this gen. It has to be more since neew super mario bros alone sold over 20 mil.
They should get a medal for selling the same **** every year..
