CSGO Operation 10 – New CSGO Operation Coming Soon?

After a long wait since the end of the Operation Shattered Web, it looks like another huge Operation is on the horizon.

UPDATE: New CSGO Operation Broken Fang announced

NEW CSGO OPERATION

The series of speculations started a few weeks ago when the shooter received an update including a bunch of small translations and changes to item descriptions. Generally, these sorts of small updates are followed by bigger ones like a new operation.

This time, Dutch CSGO skin maker and level designer Julien ‘Hollandje’ Heesterman noticed a pattern between the small entries in the game database introduced a day before Operation Shattered Web and the entries it received yesterday.

CSGO New Operation 2020

The speculations were further fueled by Norse, who claimed on Twitter that the next operation is “confirmed” and “will be released really soon.” He further said that he got the information confirmed days ago but chose to remain silent about it.

YouTuber VNN Tyler explained the list of new additions that we might be getting in the upcoming Operation. Here are the changes you can expect in the upcoming update:

  • 1v1 Versus Mode
  • New Danger Zone Utility – ‘Tripwire’
  • Remakes to the existing maps Office and Mirage
  • Survival-based ‘Dungeons’
  • New Danger Zone map ‘Frostbite’

The upcoming DZ map ‘Frostbite’ has already been leaked by the YouTuber, which you can check in his video published yesterday. As you can tell from the name, it’s a snow-themed map and the first of its kind in Danger Zone. According to Tyler, this is “the most impressive Danger Zone map” he has ever seen.

Krafton Microsoft Collaboration: What does this mean for PUBG mobile in India?

Kraftron Inc. announced global partnership with Microsoft Azure to host its portfolio of multiplatform products. This includes the entirety of Krafton and its subsidiaries, including their famous battle-royale title PlayerUnknown’s BattleGrounds(PUBG) and PUBG Mobile.

The announcement specifically mentioned the user security details and drawing parallels with the PUBG Mobile ban in India, this deal can become a game-changer.

Krafton PUBG & Microsoft Collaboration

According to the release, it was mentioned that the user privacy and security are of the top priority for Krafton and it will work hand in hand with Microsoft to ensure personal data protection via Azure. Data protection and user privacy are the subjects of conflict for the company in India and these concerns were the reason for PUBG Mobile ban in India.

PUBG Mobile was actively working to resolve these issues in India and even made changes to their privacy policy to ensure the transparency in data utilization but still, the could not escape the banhammer.

This Krafton Microsoft partnership can have positive impact on the current state of PUBG Mobile in the country.

As we reported earlier, Microsoft is leading the race to acquire the rights for Indian region and with Krafton confirming its partnership with Microsoft Azure to ensure privacy protection, the data hosting and user privacy issues related to PUBG Mobile in India can get resolved.

Furthermore, this partnership announcement specifically focuses on the concerns of user privacy and if we connect the dots, the major reason for which this ban was imposed gets resolved with Microsoft in picture.

Earlier, Tencent took its leave from India by closing down their PUBG Mobile operations for the region and the publishing rights were handed back to the PUBG Corporation, which in turn, was acquired by Krafton few days earlier.

As mentioned earlier, Microsoft is closing the deal to acquire the rights for Indian market and a local PUBG Mobile version with different publisher might make its way in India very soon. Several Indian PUBGM pros have already hinted at a “good news” and all of these implications suggest that PUBG Mobile is on the verge of getting unbanned in India.

Free Fire: How to get Fearless Diwali Warrior Bundle for free

Free Fire is back with its elusive set of events and with the auspicious festival of Diwali right around the corner, the game has made some special arrangements for its Indian fanbase. Starting with the main Light up Bermuda event, the game has introduced a month long series of events that give away many rewards and Diwali Ludo is one of them. In this event, players have a chance to get the Fearless Diwali Warrior set for free.

Diwali Ludo Details:

Free Fire came up with a brilliant way to engage its player base with another mobile game which is very famous in India, the traditional Ludo. Free Fire has added an element of twist to it and formed up a week long event where players will have to play Ludo via coupons and complete the board. This event has already begun and it will end on November 15.

The coupons are basically miniature rockets and players can earn it by playing normal matches. After collecting enough rockets, you can easily win this set. We recommend you to earn at least 10 rockets to unlock the Fearless Diwali Warrior set in a single round.

How to unlock Fearless Diwali Warrior set:

Once you have these rockets, follow these steps to get the set for free:

  • Open Free Fire and go to Events section.
  • Click on Diwali Ludo and you will see a Ludo board infront of you.
  • Roll the dice and then click on “Fearless Warrior” to move the red piece.
  • Repeat the process until you completely take the red piece to the end, similar to a normal ludo game.

At the end when you take the red piece to the last house, you will get the Fearless Diwali Warrior set for free. Alongside this one set, there are other three big rewards that can be claimed in a similar way. For getting all these rewards, you will have to play lots of normal matches to get the required amount of rockets to redeem each reward. This is the easiest way to unlock this set for free and start collecting the rockets as soon as you can before the event ends.

CSGO pro Coldzera Tests Positive For Coronavirus

CSGO pro Coldzera Tests Positive For Coronavirus

Marcelo ‘coldzera’ David is tested positive for CODVID-19, the Brazilian announced on his Instagram story.

The announcement comes following FaZe Clan’s victory against OG in the opening match of IEM Beijing EU, however, the celebrations were put to halt as their IGL was tested positive.

Cold is somewhat known to have a flamboyant lifestyle, as we find him in parties and clubs more often than not. It is unclear that if those habits led Cold to this condition or it was something else, but anyway he must undergo 14 days of self-isolation unless his health deteriorates upon which he must be admitted to health care facilities.

Coldzera’s Instagram: yeah covi d you got me
by u/rigolleto in GlobalOffensive

The Brazilian’s Instagram story read ‘yeah covid you got me’ meaning the obvious.

Neither the player nor the org has published a statement addressing Cold’s availability for their upcoming matches. The 26-year-old has been playing from his home in Serbia, and unless he faces serious health challenges he is likely to continue to play.

Should he chooses to get admitted to any hospital, FaZe Clan will be at a disadvantage again, having replaced NiKo with Olof, and Cold taking over the IGL role, they must look for yet another stand-in to fill the void.

Judging by cold’s strong personality, it will be tough, even for Covid to keep him away from the action. We pray for his swift recovery and hope to see him and FaZe back at the top where they belong. Cold’s next match is set to take place on 8th November, an upper bracket semi-final in IEM Beijing EU against Vitality. If coldzera misses the match, things are looking grim for FaZe.

Riot Games block VPN users from playing LoL: Wild Rift

Riot Games is blocking players using VPN to get the region locked League of Legends: Wild Rift beta.

League of Legends Wild Rift beta is gettings players excited which makes them all the more frustrated not being able to access it because of the region lock. Naturally, they are being forced to use VPN to get their hands on it, however, Riot seems aware. Riot published a statement stating that all VPN users will be barred from playing.

In their statement, Riot reasoned their decision by saying that they feel that the integrity of the game was harmed by accessing it in unavailable regions. 

We’ve explored ways to protect the game experience for the largest number of players and concluded the best solution is to prevent VPN access from the highest volume VPN services outside the beta regions, effective immediately. We’ll continue to evaluate whether additional VPN services need to be added to the list

Riot Games

The Beta Is Officially Available In:

  • Indonesia
  • Japan
  • Malaysia
  • Philippines
  • Singapore
  • South Korea
  • Thailand
  • Brunei
  • Cambodia
  • Laos
  • Myanmar
  • Timor-Leste

Wild Rift is scheduled for December in Europe, however, North and South American share a different story as their waiting period is expected to be till the spring of 2021.

CSGO pro Fer escapes unhurt in car crash in Rio De Janerio

Brazilian CSGO legend Fernando “fer” Alvarenga yesterday crashed his car, nearly destroying it. Fortunately, he came out later with a statement on Instagram and said that “Nobody is hurt.”

His Porsche was seen being wrecked after hitting a fence in Brazil, as shown by Twitter user @_BrianCS. Luckily, all passengers appeared to be safe without any injuries.

Fer, considered one of the most iconic entry fraggers of the game, has won a total of 2 majors with Luminosity and SK gaming, while winning several other titles along the way.

His career seems to have hit a roadblock after the downfall of MIBR following the departure of Marcelo “coldzera” David to FaZe clan. This led to him being dropped from the roster, which has caused him to take a break from the competitive scene.

He was seen joking on his Twitter saying that he will now have to take his BMW Z4 out of the garage. Later he also had a message for people who were wishing him the worst by saying “instead of envying the other, use motivation to conquer your things.”
Let us hope that he comes out of this accident as a stronger personality and is seen playing CSGO competitively again.
