The new preview version of Windows 10 focuses on PC games with game mode, Beam, game settings

This week, players on both Windows 10 PCs and Xbox One will begin to receive a load of new game features to be developed in the coming days as part of their respective Insider programs.

PC gamers probably have more reason to get excited. A game mode to customize your PC for games, a new dedicated game menu within Windows 10 settings, and Beam livestreaming gameplay will form a trifecta of improvements.

Xbox owners have already seen Microsoft deploy more general user interface improvements on the Xbox dashboard, plus a new aggressive program to segment Xbox users into four different degrees of access. With the new updates, Microsoft has updated Cortana's digital assistant with new commands and added a Screentime feature that can manage the time that children use the Xbox.

Why this matters: While this is part of the new creators update, every time Microsoft launches new features specific to the games is worth getting excited about. More specifically, these new capabilities are not necessarily designed to link the Xbox to Windows, a somewhat controversial subject for PC gamers concerned about non-modifiable PC gaming, but focus on improving individual platforms.

Game mode optimizes your PC

In the Silver Age of PC games, players modified HIMEM.SYS files and custom designed AUTORUN.EXE files to shut down everything that was not necessary to run Doom and other DOS games with the highest possible performance. The new gameplay for Windows 10 seems to have the same focus.

How much extra performance will be the new gameplay of WIdows 10? That remains to be seen.

"With gameplay, it's our goal now to take things one step further to make the gaming experience in Windows even better," Microsoft wrote in a blog post. "Our vision is that Game Mode optimizes your PC with Windows 10 to improve the overall performance of the game."

In a video, Microsoft explains that the goal is to increase the peak frame rate of your PC while playing a game, and the average frame rate as well. Eventually, the goal is to activate the game mode automatically. But it's also possible that not all games will work right away, Microsoft adds.

Introducing Game Mode for Windows 10 by samthakur

To enable it, you will need to activate the Windows game bar (WIN + G) and enter Settings. At this point, Microsoft says, you can opt in the current game in game mode. It looks like this setting will be live soon, every time you edit the new compilation.

A Home for Games in Windows 10 Setup

Over time, Microsoft has made the Settings a first page to adjust the controls of certain tasks, for example, to move the screen resolutions of your old home in the Control Panel. Apparently, the games will receive the same treatment.

PC gamers will need to familiarize themselves with the new Windows 10 game controls.

The Settings Gaming section uses the familiar Xbox logo. Within it, you'll find controls for the game bar, the GameDVR function, Beam transmission and more. The games section will continue to flow, said Microsoft, as it makes further adjustments. It looks like you might see specific controls for joysticks and other peripherals here in the future, for example.

Beam streaming will be launched

Microsoft and its subsidiary, Beam, have been busy discussing the improvements behind their entry into the streaming gaming space, competing with Twitch and YouTube. The new 1440p Beam streams are apparently live, and you will be able to take advantage of the game bar to start streaming Beam on the PC, with the support of Xbox One soon. According to Microsoft, the transmissions will have less than a second of delay, which means that the flags will be able to chat with their fans essentially in real time.

Microsoft expects Beam to become the new Twitch of the Xbox One and even the PC with Windows 10.

Eventually, Xbox users will be able to stream from the Guide navigation bar, with management controls and available chats as overlays (as opposed to tight windows).

Screentime: Because kids can not play Xbox all day

If you've managed the time your kids spend on the Internet with existing Windows parental control features, the new Screentime feature for Xbox One should look familiar. To prepare for the final release, you will need to set up an account with the microsoft.com/family web controls. As shown in the illustration, each child will connect and be subject to parental controls that have been established.

Kids can not argue with an Xbox about the screen boundaries, right?

The Xbox One platform will also receive some new commands, such as voice controls to play music while users play, Microsoft said.

Because the creators update is not expected for another month or two, Microsoft is not finished. The new additions to Beam, Arena mode and social improvements are as follows. What are they? We should know soon.

How gaming can improve in 2017

9 ways we would like to see developers, players and equipment manufacturers to improve this year.

2016 has been a record year for PC gaming, but there is plenty of room for our hobby to improve. As we return to the HQ Gamer PC today with a clean calendar in front of us, I asked our team to have a think about how they would like to see the game on PC better in 2017.

Keep free from broke-ass games

It's an unfortunate refrain at this stage, but the big games keep coming on PC with significant technical problems. Among the worst offenders in 2016: Mafia 3, disgraced 2, Deus Ex: divided humanity, Horizon of Forza 3 and Gears of War: Ultimate Edition. My personal worst technical question came with one of my favorite games of the year, 2 XCOM. Performance graph in the last mission deteriorated as I pushed forward, possibly running at 15 frames per second. Just as I thought the pain was about to end, I hit a bug that has damaged my save, preventing me from loading. I had to wait for a patch to beat the game.

PC developers consider the countless different various hardware configurations, operating systems and of other variables, but these studios with the most resources and most experienced to make games for the platform have little excuse, at this stage, to have something that does not work for almost everyone at the launch. -Evan Lahti

Restore the reputation of Early Access

Like most things in life, same pancakes, Early Access may be good, but it can also be bad. Good, because many studios use it as a way to build ambitious projects with the feedback of a community. Bad, because only some devs do not use this right and some users don't address it properly. In the first case, the proliferation of fast times for games that have a community at first barely seems to indicate a larger problem: the initiative appears to represent a way for games that are not finished to arrive on the market. In other words, we are in a situation where there are too many games early access, not enough certainty that any project will be usefully supported, and this toxic combo negatively affects the studios who really want to operate (see rust, The Long Dark).

In 2017, it would be great to hear fewer projects failing early access or poorly supported, but it requires vigilance on players, we (the media) and developers. Most of the readers of PC Gamer will be well aware of what means early access, but I think that the way we report 'promises' and the 'elements' of the needs to come up with huge reserves. We must stop to declare as inevitable because nothing in game development is inevitable. I think our team is good at doing this already, but if all the outlets approached Early Access with the caution it takes, then we could shake its negative connotations. Early access needs to work on his image, in other words: he needs to reaffirm itself as a way for players to observe and interact with the development process. We must remember that Early Access is not, simply, get quick access to a playable game. It is a different beast and a very valuable when properly. -Shaun Prescott

Support the competitors in the steam

Steam, with 125 million active accounts at the last reported count of Valve, is by far the largest distributor of PC games, but he often gets treated as Steam is the platform rather than a part of it. Unlike our compatriots from the console, we are fortunate to have access to a bunch of different digital stores on PC. We have competition between origin, GOG, Itch.io, Green Man games, Amazon, and others.

Buying games directly from the developer's Web site is one of the best things you can do if you are passionate about their work. But otherwise, I think that most of us could do more to attend other online retailers, many give the steam still codes. We are doing our part by you pointing regularly to the Humble store, which supports charities. -Evan Lahti

Stop playing with the exclusive/platform wars

One of my favorite parts of the game on PC is that we don't have to deal with "platform wars". Of course, some games only the version for Windows, but if they become ultimately playable on Linux and Mac, that is good news for PC games as a whole, regardless of your personal operating system. The opening of the PC as the platform is incredibly unique in the game, where it does not matter what is in your case, as long as he can physically run the game. But we have seen the limits of this opening tested in 2016, and it's scared the crap out of me.

Suddenly players on PC are facing a war own platform between the live HTC and the Rift of Oculus, the latter using timed exclusives to the players on his side. But worse than that, shooter VR Arizona Sunshine locked briefly two game modes while they were only playable if you owned an Intel Core i7 CPU. Although these modes have planned to unlock all in March, and shields at their developer caused topic Vertigo Games lifting quickly remove the limitation - it's the first time that we have seen in the game content or playability exclusivity of specific hardware-related, and I desperately hope that this is not a sign of things to come.

Run fast, in the direction opposite of all nonsense is not exactly a PC gaming way should "improve" this year, but it is absolutely a way it should stay the same. -Tom brands

LOpen UWAs to modders

Universal applications for Microsoft Windows are not open to modding in the traditional sense of the term. Modding Durante expert says U'wa are packaged in such a way that the API calls can be intercepted, that's what "UWP specifically aims to eliminate." It is doubtful that Microsoft will double in return for their initiative and restore their enforcement frameworks underway to resemble something similar to program Win32, but at the very least, I hope for a slow draining tools that allow us to decompress and delve the U'wa. I'll even take an exclusive mod market at the moment. We just want to breathe life into the stagnation of the games (and replace each texture with Nic Cage).

Without modding, game ecosystems depend entirely on the release of the developer, but development is expensive and games is often left at the door as soon as they stop making money. I am particularly concerned is Gears of War 4.

It is an excellent port, both evolutionary and wonderful, but without tweaks and player created maps, I'm afraid that it will struggle to cope with the demand of players who can turn to the police no end of creatives, niche mods available in other games. When I want a game to come to the PC, it is not just a matter of convenience, I'll happily play on a console if it is more comfortable there. But a PC version involves using the biggest strengths of the platform: graphic power and opening. -James Davenport

Learn to love these thankless roles

"Get on the payload" is a meme in the community thus it's-funny-but-I'm-actually-crying Overwatch: in a tale as old as time, some players are blissfully ignoring the objective of the game hunting kills more. It reminds me of play Halo on PC a decade ago: I would often be the only member of my team sitting back at the base in a CTF match, waiting to defend the opposing team's flag. Offense is more fun than the care of the flag. Kills himself is more fun that keeps the payload. Not much changed, but I still hope that the best players and intelligent game design, can improve the frequency of the cooperation of the right team.

I think that Blizzard did a great job in Overwatch encouraging people to play the roles of support such as pity and Lucio. They are pleased to support and active and minimized the importance of your kill/death ratio. I would like to see more developers to work new ideas in their multiplayer designs that encourage playing the goal and do these thankless roles more exciting for everyone. I want to see more hardcore shooters of Battlefield and Overwatch Reapers try a new way to play and think right. It's fun. Why I have not tried this before? And behold, the dream of the true online multiplayer game team was reborn. -Wes Fernandes

Find better ways to preserve the dying games with online features

PlanetSide was closed by Daybreak Games year after 13 years of service. In a few weeks, West servers of lineage will undergo the same treatment. And just like that, years of history of the crucial PC game will disappear, the waste left to be picked up by passionate looking pirates, as is the case with PlanetSide, construct emulators of private servers. Video games have a conservation problem, and it will only be worse.

As more games are built on foundations online only, certainly more in the history of the game will begin to form. While this old Diablo 2 disc will always be there, ready for a trip on the road to nostalgia, Diablo 3 very probably won't - unless Blizzard allows you to play offline or hackers bypass. It is sad when time internet historians such as Jason Scott say developers 'flight to work is the future of the history of the video game. But he's not wrong unless companies start to do more to preserve their games, which continually history will be in the hands of thieves and pirates.

In 2017, I'd love to see publishers and developers to do more to ensure that their games can be appreciated forever - even if they stopped making money ages ago. Daybreak games made a great first step in sanctioning Everquest private server project 1999 in 2015, but there is much more that could be done. I do not pretend that the developers just take a game source code upwards in line after it is closed, but to find more creative ways to ensure that everyone benefits. Wurm Online developers did exactly that in 2015, for example, by releasing their MMOS on Steam as a standalone player to make their own private servers. There is no reason why older MMOS and other online games only should not follow suit so that future generations can appreciate how video games still to go. -Steven Messner

The same screen Coop

This is a selfish request: give us more local co-op games on PC. Most PC players probably have two joysticks, but after binging on Overcooked last year, we are hungry for more of this kind. Such, the category of steam is mainly populated by a few different shooters from the top down and various Lego games. -Evan Lahti

Treat workers better

Big game publishers like entrepreneurs. They can pay them less than employees, they do not have to give them benefits, and they can lay off easily when the contracts up. As this details history of the polygon, a contractor could put in as much work as any employee, and if expected to do all the things employees, but without the benefits of a stable job. And those who cannot find full-time work may suffer from a well-documented culture that encourages excessive unpaid overtime. Rather than realistic budgets and deadlines, employees can expect to work 12 hours or more per day during crunches.

I suspect, as SAG-AFTRA, as EA, Activision and the other companies involved don't want none of their other employee's ideas on what part of the billions they are due. Residue "opens a Pandora's box to share the prosperity," said the Union representative and actor Jennifer Hale, who was quoted in this story at THE time.

I want games that we celebrate to reward people who made them, because when we give our game of the year, we give them not to investors and business leaders. He is the host contract which was loose after production finished and will not see another dime that I care. The industry will be better and make better games if the population that actually is given fair. -Tyler Wilde

New GIGABYTE console: the ' GT games ' released PC with Core i7-K, GTX1080, TB3

Quietly, GIGABYTE has announced its new team of small form factor designed for performance-minded players. The new mini-PC not only packages of components of high performance, as the last generation CPU and GPU, but uses desktop components and could be improved.

High performance in small form factor PC are not uncommon today: several PC manufacturers use mobile GPUs and CPUs to build such systems. These teams show high performance out-of-the-box, but your updating strategy is complicated because it is not easy to get MXM GPU or CPU mobile in the retail sector. Develop desktop games GT from GIGABYTE (GB-GZ1DTi7-1080-OK-GW and technically this PC belongs to the family of Brix), GIGABYTE engineers wanted to create a product that could use cards processors and graphics widely available and thus potentially offer an upgrade path to the owners.

The GIGABYTE Desktop Games GT isn't really a miniature system: 276 × 384 × 128 mm and is approximately 10 liters of volume, which is barely larger than the first generation of Sony PlayStation 3. The PC is based on a personalized plate (210 × 205 mm) which is a little larger than the Mini-ITX, but is still smaller than microATX or FlexATX. The system uses a dual Chamber design (CPU, DRAM, SSDS are on one side of the PC, graphics card and other devices are on the other side of 2.5 "storage), but cameras are not isolated completely because they use the same air flows generated by two system fans (do not know how they are, but can theoretically be 90 mm diameter). It is noteworthy that the PC has a system of automatic exhaust that opened fins of escape at the top of the computer when it should cool components.

The chassis can accommodate any double wide graphics card with a maximum size of 280 mm in length and 41 mm in depth, but nothing too customized with mira heatpipes and plates because space is limited. GIGABYTE will send the desktop games GT with your own card GeForce GTX 1080 G1 games 8 GB, but say the important thing is that it can be updated later. Since the card is facing down, you have to use custom cables (included) to connect to screens. Audio and Ethernet cables also have to orient themselves, but at least it is not a big problem to find those cables in retail. On the positive side of things, the desktop games GT uses a FlexATX W 400 chassis power supply, which can be improved if necessary.

Motherboard GIGABYTE personalized games GT PC is based on the Intel Z170 HCP, and thus supports all LGA1151 processors, including El chips next Lake. The manufacturer will send the system with CPU Intel Core i7 - 6700K (therefore, overlocking seems possible, but keep in mind the temperatures and noise), but finally the chip could change to something more powerful.

Gaming GIGABYTE GT PC will come with 32 GB of dual channel DDR4 memory, a 240 GB SSD (M.2 form factor, but no word on performance), a 1 TB HARD drive with a speed of 7200 RPM spindle and an additional Bay of 2.5 "for an extra boost. For those who are not satisfied with a SSD M.2 and two 2.5 "HDD/SSD, GIGABYTE even installed lightning 3 port for connecting external devices from high-performance storage or special hardware. When it comes to other I/O, then Desktop Games GT offers a 1 × 1 dual band 802. 11ac + BT 4.2 wireless module, of the Gigabit Ethernet (killer E2400), five USB 3.0 Type - A port, one USB 3.1 Type-A (10 Gbps) port, 5.1-channel audio (Realtek ALC1150 with TI Burr Brown OPA2134 amplifier) and so on.

Finally, to give a distinctive look to your GT gaming system, GIGABYTE installed a series of RGB LEDs in the upper part. The LEDS can be operated in different modes and can be controlled through use of the company environment LED.

Dates, prices and availability for the GIGABYTE GT SFF PC were not available at the time of publication. Keep in mind that the current configuration of the PC is different according to regions, which means that their prices vary as well. Most likely, that we will see the coming week at CES.

HOW TO BUILD THE PERFECT, COST-EFFECTIVE PC GAMES

HOW TO BUILD THE BEST BUDGET GAMING PC by samthakur

One of the most common misconceptions about games on the PC is that it costs thousands of dollars to start yet. In fact, most games cost less than $1,000 and still provide a notable improvement in performance over the current generation of consoles. That is why we provide an example of economic system that still must be pumped solid performance, 60 frames per second in modern titles in 1080 p.

Construction, explained

For our CPU, we have chosen a chip of sixth generation Intel Core i3-6100. It is a chip dual - core with Hyper-threading and 3.7 GHz core clock speed. It is not the most impressive chip, but costs around $100, and is enough to not suffocate our choice of discrete graphics.

Speaking of graphics, the GTX 1050 is an easy option for economic generation. It is also just around $100, depending on the couple Board and model, with basic models 2 GB of GDDR5 memory.

Best Shooter 2016: 2 Titanfall

A brilliant campaign singleplayer and systems weapon exceptional make this a first-class FPS.

BT FTW! GOTY gongs are elected by the staff of PC Gamer through the vote and the debate. To publish a prize a day to Christmas, with staffs of the PCG team selections. Stay updated with all prizes so far here.

Chris Thursten: who saw this coming? Given a second stab at a set of ideas that never came to fruition in the promise but poor first game, Respawn explosion in from left field to deliver by far the best shooter of the year campaign. Titanfall 2 shows a style valve available to play with the basic formula of the game, remix of shooting, parkour, and mech combat in a different way in each mission. Levels of outstanding, in the abyss and cause and effect - party visual spectacle with brilliant concepts high science fiction that would not be out of place in a sequel to half-life. Yes, it is true that good.

Tom Senior: Titans-solitary pilots interaction creates the most tactically interesting and intense combat times of the year. Nowhere another can wrench a battery out of the back of a Titan, jump on the back of a friendly, slide-machine gun Titan a pilot enemy and reassemble the Titan enemy and dropping a grenade into the slot of the battery just vacated. Movement systems that allow this are extraordinarily robust and intuitive and easily some of the best I have found in an FPS. It is difficult to describe the feeling of chaining a series of heroic maneuvers in a takedown of several pilot or titan. There is almost no friction between thought and action at the moment, only the thrill of carving a path through a frenetic warzone driven by beautifully designed class systems, the movement and gun. It has been a great year for shooters, but Titanfall 2 destroys the competition.

Andy Kelly: Titanfall 2 click on for me when I started to reprogram my brain FPS to take advantage of the mobility of my character. Facing an enemy with shield in hand, my first thought was to run behind him and gun him on the back. But then I realized that could do a slide of fresh knee toward a wall along it, turns, landing behind him and after shotgun in the back. And suddenly everything made sense. This movement of a liquid nature combined with thickness, satisfaction of combat and a procession of imaginative tricks step by step to create one of the best FPS campaigns for single player I've played in years.

Phil Savage: The movement and the level of design, especially that level, are deserving of praise. But what really surprised me was the feeling of the weapons. Thanks to Doom and 1 battlefield, it has been a good year for strong, burly arms. I've spent much of 2016 enjoying the crack of a rifle's bolt and the profound explosion of a super shotgun. On the other hand, weapons Titanfall 2 elegant and subtle feeling. Feel powerful and deadly, but information is handled in another way - which means that combat not mastered audio mixing. It is a refreshing approach, and a different texture that distinguishes it from the year gives you 2 Titanfall other great shooters.

Chris Livingston: I hear a lot of people saying that they love the movement of the pilot, and is undoubtedly great. Fast, flexible, frantic, that gives us many ways to deal with enemies and the environment. But I fear that simply not I appreciate it so much like everyone else because I just hate to not be in my titan. Whenever I have to go running on foot I am completely miserable. Just go back to pick me up and put me on you, the huge robot! I know I can run walls and knee-slide and all that, but I had much rather be encased in a giant robot friendly Pisa Protecto to mirror edge-ing while people shoot me. I love to both titan that I can not stand to part ways. If you could install a small refrigerator and WC in the same, I would never get out.

Tim Clark: The level that all apparently still dare not name (Statute of limitations of spoiler?) is the most exciting thing I've played all year. Titanfall 2 campaign is a ridiculous ideas of great design, condensation hits album more creativity in their six or fewer hours that some series handle many games. That said, absolutely not buy the line that Titanfall 2 purely was sentenced by naive EA programming. Even if it had been released earlier this year, away from the twin monsters of CoD and Battlefield, I am not sure that would have sold much better. The problem, I suspect, is that you only have one shot at the launch of a new shooter. And Titanfall 1 players remember him is a great multiplayer game that failed to find a large enough audience and disappeared quickly. I think that nails tacks in a short campaign, though critically acclaimed, was always going to be enough to convince the players, many of whom are well aware of the value, which would get worth the second time their money. That is a huge shame, because I'm not sure what other comeback could reasonably have done and probably condemns any hope of a third installment.

Market of the PC game with a value of $36 billion in 2016

The worldwide gaming market was worth a huge $91 billion this year. Mobile games, powered by the huge success as Pokemon GB and Clash Royale, conducted the dance with a total estimated market value of $41 billion, but the PC itself very well paid, pulling in about $36 billion over the year, "essentially determined by the downloadable games and free-to-play online titles."

But the rest of the real money with free-to-play games: League of Legends a new time in this ranking to $1.7 billion, followed by Dungeon Fighter Challenge, Crossfire, World of Tanks and Dota 2, which has a relatively paltry $260 million.

"DotA 2 comes in second at $23.4 million a month this year, show fans ' reluctance to switch to another MOBA," the report said, noting how difficult it continues to be again MOBAs to have a significant impact on the genre. "The modest success of securities of mid range as the heroes of the storm, Smite, Heroes of Newerth and Paragon is always overshadowed by the top two, a persistent over the past years trend."

Interestingly, while esports and free-to-play market expected to see healthy growth continues over the next three years, 'premium' PC games market is expected to drop slightly next year, from 5.4 $ to $ 5.3 billion, before bouncing back in 2018. Causes of this decline are not provided, but it may be related to note that Valve experience with skin CS game controversy has led other studios "proceed with caution" concerning digital assets, something that could have an effect of braking on future growth.

"Developers for Rocket League, EVE Online and Overwatch took care with the implementation of virtual objects by making tradable or modify the terms and services to prohibit gambling of in-game currency," the report said.

Superdata says his PC assessment is based on the social, free-to-play, subscription and premium games, and of course, there is a good bit of estimation of prices, as companies like Valve and riot - two of the biggest players in this whole - usually do release numbers to the public. But overall, it paints a very healthy picture of the PC gaming scene.
