Looks like we got a brand new event for Warframe this Halloween in the for of the Hallowed Flame Tactical alert. The highlight of this one is the Naberus Ephemera or Bat Ephemera that got teased a while back.
The event is simple and straight forward. The player need to do for short survival missions for five minutes, seven minutes and a half, ten minutes and finally fifteen minutes to get all the rewards.
I Still Got It! - Trying Heroes of the Storm (After Over One Year)
This does not mean I'm gonna start playing HotS on a regular basis again but the Deathwing announcement got me to try the game and see how it has fared over the past year.
At a first glance it still seems the same game I remember so today it's time for my old Greymane routine.
Heroes of the Storm (originally titled Blizzard DOTA and later changed to Blizzard All-Stars) is a multiplayer online battle arena video game developed by Blizzard Entertainment for Microsoft Windows and OS X. The game features heroes from Blizzard's franchises including Warcraft, Diablo, StarCraft, Overwatch and The Lost Vikings.
I caught somebody streaming Dauntless and I thought it looked cool so I garbed the guys and gave it a try.
These are my early impressions of Dauntless and so far so good. I'm enjoying the game despite the fact that I did have some nasty technical issues applying to the 21:9 aspect ration (also know as Ultra Wide) which I'm using.
I never played this type of game before and I'll check out the competition as-well. For now we have about five hours of gameplay heavily condensed for your viewing pleasure.
Dauntless is a free-to-play action role-playing video game developed by Phoenix Labs and published by Epic Games. The game initially launched in beta in May 2018 for Microsoft Windows. An early access version launched on May 21, 2019 for PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, including full support for cross-platform play, and was fully released for those platforms on September 26, 2019. A Nintendo Switch version is scheduled for release later in 2019.
This is something I always wanted to do! Put these two fantastic weapons up against each other because appearances might be deceiving. Both the Lex Prime and the Aklex Prime have their strengths and weakness but I believe that for the time being the Lex Prime is the way to go. Come next major Warframe update that might be changed because of the weapon exilus mod slots but we'll have to wait and see.
For the time being the Lex has the advantage of better accuracy and the lower recoil. The Aklex has a larger magazine capacity and better fire-rate but is hindered by a very heavy recoil. Making that increased fire-rate a bit questionable.
Riven Mod disposition is in favor of the Lex with three out of five while the Aklex holds two out of five. Prices are comparable, none of them being expensive.
As always it comes down to you and what you prefer just try to keep in mind that the weapon exilus mod slots are coming and they should change the outcome a bit. Whatever way you chose to go rest assured you are getting a fantastic weapon!
My Troublesome Atlas Prime Farm (Warframe Gameplay)
The latest prime to be added Atlas caused us quite a bit of grief on the farm. In all fairness, you should have four players with three of four syndicates maxed when a new prime comes out. That can make things a lot easier. Normally that's what we do but this time there was an exception that resulted in a several hour grinds for the Axi A6 Relic that drops the coveted Atlas Prime Neuroptics. Right now on the PC trade chat, this thing goes for over one hundred plat because of how long it takes to get a relic drop.
This was our little adventure farming Atlas Prime and I hope you enjoy it! The footage is from our Livestream :
After I tried Dauntless it was time to see what Monster Hunter World has to offer! These are my first impressions after roughly thirty hours played on PC. Currently, the Iceborn DLC is not available for PC.
The one constant across everything I played so far is the absolutely beautiful landscapes that push you onward to explore and twenty-one by nine Ultra Wide enhances the experience greatly. The main plot is decent but nothing to write home about. Still, it should keep you playing the game.
The combat is a lot on the clunky side with all sorts of weird design choices for mouse and keyboard. The game is optimized for consoles and as such, it plays a lot better with a controller.
The main problem I had with the game is an atrocious multiplayer experience. Essentially there are plenty of hoops to jump through and a lot of waiting involved if you just want to play with your friends. Doable but frustrating.
And there you have it, my first impressions on Monster Hunter World. I will invest more into it because there's a lot of game here and despite my setbacks with multiplayer I am having fun and I want to explore more.
Monster Hunter: World is an action role-playing game developed and published by Capcom. A part of the Monster Hunter series, it was released worldwide for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on January 2018, with a Microsoft Windows version in August 2018.
