Do you have a lot of stuff in Apex Legends? Might want to look again!

Stories

  • The Apex Legends 1.1 patch reset some players saves entirely. Including in-game purchases.
  • Bobby pins have been a source of consternation to Fallout 76 players. Because encumbrance is a real issue for Fallout players, every object has to be assigned a weight. This means that a stash of 10,000 improvised 0.1lb lockpicks can weigh as much as a mini-nuke.
  • Epic Games have announced that stretch screen resolutions will no longer be allowed in Fortnite tournament or competitive arena modes. In short: High level play involves a lot of vertical building, 4:3 resolutions allow more vertical vision and therefore have an advantage.
  • Rainbow Six Siege unveiled a April Fools Joke, Rainbow is Magic, that takes the popular plane map and makes it into a candy-coated funland where bullets make star-shaped holes, and confetti shoots from open wounds. Your mission is to rescue or defend a teddy bear hostage employing operators dressed in pink and wearing kitty gasmasks or unicorn helmets.

An EVE Online player named Katia Sae has completed a 10 year mission to visit all 7805 star systems in the game.
