0

In the midst of a heated controversy, S8UL Esports’ Co-owner and popular content creator Naman “MortaL” Mathur showcased his grace and commitment to positivity. MortaL pledged to donate the entire chat revenue generated during his stream titled “Your Dead Player is Back” to a charitable cause. During this live session, he not only addressed the ongoing controversy but also illustrated his character as a responsible influencer

MortaL Donates INR 2,19,000 Chat Revenue To a Charitable Cause.

Despite the intense controversy involving GodLike Esports and S8UL Esports, MortaL chose to take the high road and transform the situation into an opportunity for philanthropy.

“I will be transparent,” MortaL began, addressing his viewers directly. “I have received INR 1,27,000 chat revenue. This entire amount and more that I will get by the end of the stream, it is filled with so much positivity from your end. So I guess it should go somewhere better. This is the entire chat revenue generated. I will make sure that you will get the receipt of the entire chat amount. I will post it in my community post or members-only community post.”

This announcement saw a surge of appreciation and respect from his fan base. Following this, MortaL went on to disclose the total revenue generated from the stream, which amounted to INR 2,19,000. He further stated, “From this, I will deduct 30% and donate the remaining amount. Wherever I donate it, I will tell you.” It is important to note that the 30% deduction MortaL mentioned was YouTube’s commission, which it charges from Chat Revenue.

This act of generosity not only showcased MortaL’s maturity and wisdom in handling the controversy but also highlighted his desire to channel the positivity of his fan base toward a meaningful cause. His decision to donate the chat revenue from his livestream inspires positive change in the community. It sends a message that even in the face of adversity, individuals can choose to rise above conflicts and use their platform to make the world a better place.

Jingliu in Honkai Star Rail: All you need to know

In version 1.4, the HoYoverse will welcome Jingliu, a figure that has drawn much interest from the Honkai Star Rail fanbase. Jingliu, who holds the title of Sword Champion of Xianzhou Luofu, is well known for her prowess in more than just warfare. She has become a very interesting character as a result of her intriguing past and the mystery around her.

The Legend Behind Jingliu

Jingliu has a long history of working with Xianzhou Luofu. She originally served as Jing Yuan’s tutor and was lauded for her outstanding accomplishments, which included serving as the High-Cloud Quintet’s leader. But a chain of occurrences, including the betrayal of Dan Feng and her own spiral into madness as a result of Mara, drastically altered her fate. As she unleashed her rage and engaged in combat with her own apprentice, Jing Yuan, she damaged her once heroic reputation.

Jingliu’s Combat Abilities

In the realm of combat, Jingliu is a force to be reckoned with. She employs a dual stance mechanism, allowing her to switch between powerful single-target attacks and devastating AoE onslaughts. Her elemental affinity to Ice DMG makes her a formidable opponent, and her ability to enter a Transcendence state, although at a cost, amplifies her combat capabilities.

VALORANT’s Patch 7.07 Unveiled

0

VALORANT, Riot Games’ premier first-person shooter, is once again in the spotlight with the release of its much-anticipated Patch 7.07. This update promises not only to refine gameplay but also to address some of the community’s most pressing concerns.

A Surprising Reversal in Competitive Matchmaking

One of the most talked-about features of Patch 7.07 is the reversal of a recent change to the game’s competitive matchmaking rules. Initially, in Patch 7.06, Riot Games introduced a ranked restriction to combat the issues of botting and smurfing in VALORANT.

This restriction prevented Ascendant players from queuing with players ranked Gold or below. However, after significant community feedback, Riot Games decided to roll back this change.

The developers acknowledged the importance of flexibility in forming five-stack parties and are now seeking alternative solutions to address the underlying issues.

Enhancements and Visual Upgrades

Haven, one of VALORANT’s iconic maps, will see a visual upgrade to its destructible doors located at Mid Garage. This change aims to improve player visibility, making it easier for players to secure those crucial wall-bang kills.

Additionally, the game will undergo performance optimizations, particularly benefiting systems with discrete Intel GPUs. Riot Games has enabled multithreaded rendering for these systems, ensuring smoother gameplay for a wider range of players.

Agent Adjustments and Bug Fixes

Patch 7.07 introduces several agent-specific changes, with Cypher receiving notable attention. His ultimate, Neural Theft, has been buffed to complete even if Cypher is eliminated after casting.

This change is expected to bring a fresh dynamic to how players utilize Cypher in their strategies. Additionally, several bugs affecting agents and the game’s sound system have been addressed, ensuring a more seamless gaming experience.

Valorant 5-Stack Restrictions Removed in Patch 7.07 Update

0

As Valorant Episode 7 Act 2 nears its end, Riot Games is gearing up to ship the upcoming 7.07 update to the competitive shooter.

The patch notes for the next Valorant update has already been revealed by the developers, and while the 7.07 update isn’t bringing any major changes to the title, there are a bunch of important adjustments to certain Agents and gameplay elements that players should take note of before they head into Valorant Episode 7 Act 3.

The biggest and perhaps the most important change that Valorant 7.07 will bring is the change to competitive 5-stacks. The upcoming Valorant update will revert the changes to 5-stack matchmaking that were introduced in patch 7.06.

For the uninitiated, the Valorant 7.06 update limited players who were Ascendant or above to queuing with players ranked Platinum or higher only.

“We know how important it is to play with your friends and your need for flexibility in order to do that,” Riot Games said in a statement. “Initially, the rank restriction was made to prevent people from illegitimately boosting to the highest ranks like Radiant. In the end, we realized that your ability to have flexibility with your 5 stack was more important than the very small number of people who abuse this exploit.”

Other than the competitive changes, Valorant 7.07 also brings with it a number of interesting adjustments that fans can check out below:

MAP UPDATES

haven-banner.jpg

HAVEN

  • Updated the destruction VFX for the destructible door panels located at Mid Doors/Garage in order to make it easier to see through as it falls away.

PERFORMANCE UPDATES

  • Enabled multithreaded rendering for discrete Intel GPUs and lowered required CPU core count.

BUG FIXES

GENERAL

In Patch 7.06, we fixed a bug that allowed the game to output surround sound when certain conditions were met, but the surround mix was untested and unsupported. VALORANT currently only supports stereo and mono sound output.

  • To simulate surround sound on headphones, we offer an HRTF setting. We do not recommend combining the HRTF setting in game with other surround sound virtualization software at the same time since this will result in double processing.
  • Note that other surround sound virtualization software cannot derive surround sound information from the stereo mix.

AGENT

  • Cypher
    • Neural Theft (X) now completes even if Cypher dies after casting.
    • Fixed an issue where you could remain blinded if spectating a flash through Cypher’s Spycam (E) as the round ended.
  • Gekko
    • Dizzy’s (E) enemy detection range is now correctly reduced while inside of Viper’s Pit (X) ability.

PREMIER

  • Fixed an issue where the Attacker team takes priority over the Defender team in the Overtime vote.
  • Fixed a bug where a second timer bar would appear after the “Choose Side” vote had already ended.
  • Fixed a bug where certain scenarios would cause subsequent Overtime Priority votes to occur in the following round.

How To Play CSGO After CS2 Release?

0

After a long wait and an extensive limited test phase, Valve has officially launched Counter Strike 2 to the title’s eager player base on September 27, 2023. The CS2 launch also brought alongside it a plethora of new changes to the shooter aiming to improve matchmaking, fix underlying issues, and more, but a portion of the game’s community is still unhappy with the current state of the CSGO sequel.

If you’re finding yourself dissatisfied with Counter Strike 2, or simply longing to relive the nostalgia of the original, you might wonder, “Can I still play CSGO after the release of CS2?” Fortunately, the answer is yes.

Players are still able to play their beloved FPS title CSGO even after the release of CS2, but there are certain limitations to it. In this article, we’re about to check out how you can download and install CSGO right now on your PC via Steam.

How To Install CSGO After CS2 Release

Whether you’re eager to hop onto a CSGO custom game with your friends or simply looking to refine your surfing skills before community servers are added to CS2, we have you covered.

Playing CSGO on your PC after the release of CS2 is entirely possible and you can do it in just a few steps. Without further ado, let’s check out how you can install CSGO on your PC right away.

  • Launch Steam.
  • Right click ‘Counter-Strike 2’ from your Steam library.
  • Click on ‘Properties’.
  • Go to ‘Betas’.
  • Change ‘Beta Participation’ from ‘None’ to ‘csgo_demo_viewer’.

Once done, you’ll see that Steam will automatically start downloading files for CSGO on your PC.

Let the download finish, and launch CS2. You should be greeted with the CSGO main menu after you launch the game and you’re free to play your favorite FPS title once again.

However, do note that you’re not able to participate in official matchmaking games from your CSGO client, which means that you won’t be able to queue for Competitive, Casual, or any other official modes. Community servers and custom games work normally.

Interestingly, at the time of writing, players are also able to purchase and open capsules from the CSGO client.

Is Assassin’s Creed Mirage Coming to Steam?

0

With the anticipation surrounding the release of “Assassin’s Creed Mirage,” many gamers are curious about its availability on various platforms, especially the popular digital distribution service, Steam.

As of now, “Assassin’s Creed Mirage” is not available on Steam. Instead, the game has found its home on the Epic Games Store. This has raised eyebrows among the gaming community, especially those who have been accustomed to purchasing and playing the previous Assassin’s Creed titles on Steam. The convenience of having all games under one digital roof is something many gamers cherish.

Why Isn’t AC Mirage on Steam?

Ubisoft has chosen to release “Assassin’s Creed Mirage” on the Epic Games Store, a decision that might be influenced by various strategic partnerships or financial considerations. However, it’s essential to note that this doesn’t mean the game will never make its way to Steam. Historically, many mainline Assassin’s Creed games have eventually landed on Valve’s platform. For now, players wishing to experience the game on PC will need to either use Ubisoft’s launcher or purchase it from the Epic Games Store.

While there’s no official confirmation, there’s a possibility that “Assassin’s Creed Mirage” might become a timed exclusive on the Epic Games Store. This means that after a specific period, the game could become available on other platforms, including Steam. Given the history of the Assassin’s Creed series on Steam, this scenario is plausible.

Set to release on October 5, “Assassin’s Creed Mirage” promises to deliver an immersive gaming experience across various platforms, including PC, PS5, and Xbox. The game is expected to harken back to the series’ roots, emphasizing stealth mechanics and a linear narrative within a contained environment, as opposed to expansive open-world exploration.

Valve Responds to False VAC Bans for Windows 7 CS2 Players

0

The launch of CS2 was not without its challenges. Windows 7 players reported random decreases in their trust factor, which subsequently led to VAC bans. This issue garnered significant attention on gaming forums such as r/GlobalOffensive.

Given the history of cheating in Counter-Strike titles, many in the community were initially skeptical about these claims of false bans. However, as of October 3, it appears that justice has been served, with the affected players being unbanned.

Cheating in CS2: A Recurring Issue

Cheating has been a persistent issue in the Counter-Strike series, especially in its predecessor, Global Offensive. While Valve has been proactive in issuing ban waves to address the problem, the trust in the system was shaken when genuine players faced bans due to the Windows 7 glitch. The challenge for Valve lies in distinguishing between actual cheaters and those wrongfully penalized.

While the VAC ban issue was a significant concern, CS2’s launch faced other criticisms as well. Players expressed disappointment over missing features from Global Offensive, such as official retake servers. Additionally, the game has been reported to have numerous bugs and lacks the smoothness of CSGO in terms of movement and hit registration.

Despite its rocky start, CS2 holds promise. Those familiar with the challenges faced during Global Offensive’s launch view the current situation as comparatively better. With Valve’s active involvement in addressing issues and enhancing the game, CS2 is poised to become a standout title in the Counter-Strike franchise.
