PUBG Mobile Season 13 set to arrive on May 13

The new PUBG Mobile update is set to bring the Toy Playground Royale Pass on May 13.

The new PUBG Mobile 0.18.0 update with Season 13 is finally going live on the main PUBG Mobile last week. Tencent Games released the new update which brings the Mad Miramar update along with the Golden Mirado, reworked Win 94, P90 weapon, canted sight, and other things. The new update weighs 1.74GB and can be downloaded from the store. The new update is set to bring the Toy Playground Royale Pass on May 13.

Miramar is the second map to be added to PUBG and has remained the same since. The map has been updated on the PC version of the game last year. And this new update seems to bring those changes to the PUBG Mobile version of the map as well. The devs have also updated the results screen UI. It is set to feature some statistics about the guns used as well as the most damage caused to different target areas of the body. The Golden Mirado skin which was introduced to PUBG PC a while back is coming to PUBG Mobile as well. Only one Golden Mirado will spawn on Miramar.

A video posted on Twitter shows some of the reworks done to the Miramar map. This includes the new Ruins locale along with a new Race Track. There’s also a new Oasis region to the north of the map. Besides the new Golden Mirado, the devs have also added a 2.7x Scope to Win94 as well. This will make the weapon more versatile and easier to use.

The Canted Sight attachment has also been introduced with this Mad Miramar update. The Canted Sight helps players attach a scope along with it which means that guns can be used for long and short ranges at the same time. A new gun, which is the P90 SMG is making its way to the Arena Mode. Vending machines are also being added to the game which will drop painkillers and energy drinks. There is also a Cheer Park feature being added.

Making Anthem sounds like a perfect triple storm

It seems a miracle that BioWare and the EA sci-fi MMO anthem have begun.

It is long and worth reading, but it is long and short that the title was supported by the technical limitations of the EA Frostbite engine patented by the Swedish DICE, as well as the visions of what the game is about.




Although the game was ready since 2012, the final version of Anthem, which began in February this year, only started about 18 months before the release date. Ultimately, the important elements, such as flying Mech suits, were not always at stake and the team switched to mechanics. Taking into account that the means of movement are not blocked, it also meant that the design of the level and the aspirations were not blocked for a long time. The functions announced until 2018, as a detailed system of skills tree, have never been put into play. This is, at least in part, the reason why the anthem has not appreciated too well in its beta test or body.

The change of leadership of BioWare, led by Casey Hudson, did not contribute to the development in 2014, leaving a gap at the top. Hudson finally returned in the summer of 2017.

Employees also discuss the impact of mental health on the BioWare teams in the Edmonton and Montreal area of ​​Canada, as well as in Austin, Texas, due to the hard deadlines and long periods of crisis. It involved a six-week period of "significant crisis", during which a demonstration was built so that EA Worldwide Studios boss Patrick Söderlund would not be impressed after the game. By the way, it was when the flight was finally added, as well as an updated art style.

In short, the development of Anthem seems to be the perfect storm of a large budget project, hampered by technical difficulties, lack of a clear vision and, at all times, a massive editor who breathes his neck trying to make the studies are impossible .

"We sincerely support all present and former members of our team who worked on the game, including administration," he read.




"It takes a lot of effort, energy and dedication to do any game, and it would not have been possible to make the hymn without any effort, it's best to bring this new idea to the fans, we did not want to be part of what you tried to humiliate them as individuals.

He continued: "Like the studio and the team, we accept all the criticisms that come from our games, especially from our players." The creative process is often complicated, the difficulties and challenges of videogames are very real. amazing: people in this industry are putting so much passion and energy to do something fun, we do not believe that articles make our industry and our art better.

"Our focus is on our players and we will continue to produce hymns for our entire community, thanks for the support of our fans, we are doing what we do for you."

Should PC Gamers be upgraded to the new AMD Threadripper 1950X?

The brilliant wrists already proclaim a new winner in the high-end processor wars: the AMD Threadripper 1950X.

The new AMD core processor is launched today, with its lenses for the Samsung Chinstrap. There will be blood.

In all respects, the new chip is a beast. The 1950X features 16 cores and 32 wires with a 3.4 GHz basic clock (and overclocker) and supports 64 PCIe channels, four channel memory and eight DIMM slots.

It is a stupid even size, measuring an enormous 72 mm of 55 mm.

Intel's core processor, the Core i9-7900X, offers only 10 cores and 20 wires, and costs the same amount: $ 1,000.

Even the little sister of the 1950s, the 1920x offers 12 hearts and 24 wires and clocks at $ 799.

I will not go into more detail about the specifications of the Threadripper, but it should be obvious to everyone now that it is a powerful chip at an exceptional price.

A price to beat

A few days ago, Intel unveiled the full specifications for its even higher chips, such as the i9-7980XE. This is an 18-pin / 36-wire chip with a maximum clock speed of 4.4 GHz that supports up to 44 PCIe channels. The price? $ 1,999. This is twice as high for a chip than, in terms of data sheet, in any case, has a very thin edge only.

The i9-7920X has specifications nearly identical to 1920X AMD, but costs $ 1,991 - $ 400 more than the AMD offer.

What all this means is that ultimately we have the actual competition in the market for high-end processors, which is a wonderful change over the past few years. Intel has taken the lead for more than a decade.

In 2003, AMD's Athlon 64 processors took the PC world by storm, which allowed Intel to fight to catch up. This happened in 2006, when Intel unveiled its Core 2 Duo processors, and since then Intel has retained an edge, although the progress of CPU technology has never been more spectacular than the fervent days.


With the Threadripper, the tables have rotated again. AMD has a clearly convincing product at the price point that will win consumers and press Intel to lower prices. All this is ideal for consumers and the PC market.

What players need to consider

But the question we ask in this article is whether PC gamers should be upgraded to the 1950X Threadripper (or the 1920X) and the answer to that question is ...

No. Probably not. Almost certainly not.


These multi-core multi-core processors are incredibly effective if you create content, create 3D graphics and run multi-threaded programs. Content creators can undress for several minutes of rendering, increase efficiency and save valuable hours and even days over time.

But players have much less use for this type of chip, and most games only see very low performance gains.

The Intel i7-7700k Intel processor of $ 340 will exceed the Threadripper on many games, although some titles benefiting from more threads will have a small advantage of frame-rate, which is especially true for higher resolutions.

The i7-7700k is far, much slower in terms of rendering time, 3DMark scores, etc., but again, it's a $ 340 chip. If you are not a content creator who is considering using all of these multi-core / multi-threaded features, you have no reason to spend a large amount on the Threadripper even though it's amazing.

Players are better served by upgrading their graphics processor. The good news is that there is a lot of competition in the GPU market. The new Nvidia GTX 1080 will do more to improve your gaming performance than the expensive upgrade of a processor. For a little less, a GTX 1070 or 1060, or an AMD RX 560, you will benefit even more than purchasing a high-end processor.

That being said, if you want to do several tasks, that is to say. Playing games while doing 3D graphics, for example - the Threadripper is a great option. If you have $ 1,000 to burn, that's the case.

For my part, I am perfectly satisfied with my Intel Core i7-6700k coupled with a GTX 1080 GTX - for now, at least. Until I get this itch to improve and throw caution, and money, to the wind.

The good news is that the competition is getting hotter. This means a better price and better products for PC game enthusiasts.
