I'm reading articles about Delta Force: Hawk Ops and it being the rival for games such as Battlefield franchise and Escape From Tarkov. I guess I should try it as I'm a fan of both games. 🙂 It sounds interesting as they are not quite equal in terms of gameplay. But It indeed seems that Delta Force has several different game modes included: 1. Campaign, which seems to be pretty much a new version of the Delta Force Black Hawk Down from 2003 2. Hazard Operation, which is the extract shooter mode featuring NPCs and actual rival players in teams of three (Tarkov) 3. Havoc Warfare, which is the more massive multiplayer mode with teams of 32 players fighting against each other (Battlefield) Early August, the early access alpha version had almost 7000 concurrent players online, so at least it's doing better than Concord. 👍 #DeltaForce #HawkOps #Battlefield #BF #Tarkov #EscapeFromTarkov #ExtractionShooter #Campaign (image credit: TiMi Studio Group)

Will this one be the Battlefield killer? I have to say it's looking really good, and even though many people are excited about the extraction mode, I have to say I'm more interested in seeing how the Conquest mode performs instead. Super cool to see many great looking games popping up lately! 🤗

The new Delta Force: Hawk Ops looks pretty decent! It's apparently free-to-play and it will be released early 2025, early access probably later this year. I remember the old-school Delta Force games when I was a kid, but I didn't play them back then. It might have a shot at actually competing with Battlefield franchise. Especially as their previous game was a bit of a flop at release. I probably will give it a shot, but I don't really like the idea of having different operators. I prefer the simpler roles of medic, support, sniper, engineer with different loadouts and that's it. I will probably give it a go! Just curious and afraid about what will be their monetization strategy. Is it cosmetics or pure pay-to-win? Oh and by the way, I looked up the previous releases of the Delta Force franchise and they have been ages ago! - 1998: Delta Force - 1998: Delta Force 2 - 2000: Delta Force Land Warrior - 2002: Delta Force: Task Force Dagger - 2003: Delta Force: Black Hawk Down - 2004: Delta Force: Black Hawk Down Team Sabre - 2005: Delta Force: Xtreme - 2009: Delta Force: Xtreme 2 #DeltaForce #DeltaForceHawkOps #Battlefield #Release

Congratz to NAVI for winning IEM Rio 2024! 😎 🎉

Unfortunately it's not looking too good for Shroud's new game Spectre Divide. Looks like the studio is letting go 13 employees only a few weeks after the game launched. Unfortunately making a new hit game remains to be difficult :/ https://www.dexerto.com/gaming/shrouds-spectre-divide-dev-team-hit-with-layoffs-weeks-after-launch-2911312/

IGN is reporting that a new Battlefield game is in the works by EA, and it will finally be returning to a modern setting. I'm pretty excited! https://www.ign.com/articles/exclusive-first-battlefield-concept-art-revealed-vince-zampella

GZ to Blinky for winning the GeoGuessr World Cup 2024! It was an absolutely insane grand finale. Script writers were definitely working overtime. WP to the silver medalist MK as well. https://liquipedia.net/geoguessr/Blinky

Looks like PlayStation 5 Pro has been finally revealed! Unfortunately console gaming seems to be getting quite expensive though. PS5 Pro prices are: $699.99 USD £699.99 GBP €799.99 EUR Fortunately I remain mainly a PC gamer 😎 https://blog.playstation.com/2024/09/10/welcome-playstation-5-pro-the-most-visually-impressive-way-to-play-games-on-playstation/

The War Within has surpassed my expectations by a lot! It finally made WoW feel like WoW once again. I guess I'm mostly impressed about the story and focus in the old and beloved characters, but all the new zones and quests are nice too. Good job Blizzard!

Deadlock is a pretty good game! I'm totally not addicted 😊
