In recent years, I’ve come to realize just how much modders contribute to enhancing games, often surpassing the efforts of the original developers. Take, for instance, the H2M mod for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and the Ultra Realism mod for Cyberpunk 2077. These projects showcase the passion and dedication of the modding community to making games not just playable but extraordinary. The situation with Call of Duty is particularly eye-opening. Many older COD titles have become security risks, with hackers able to access players' IP addresses. Despite countless pleas from the community, Activision has done little to address these issues. Yet, a group of skilled modders took matters into their own hands, working tirelessly for years to develop the H2M mod. This mod not only fixed critical security vulnerabilities but also significantly improved the game's graphics and playability. And how did Activision respond? Just hours before the official release of the H2M mod, they issued a notice to shut it down. It's disheartening to see how big-budget studios sometimes disregard the voices of their most dedicated fans. As more studios continue to overlook the needs and requests of their players, it increasingly falls to the community itself to keep their favorite games alive and thriving. Modders are not just fixing issues; they’re pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in gaming. It’s time to acknowledge and support the incredible work of the modding community, who are often the unsung heroes behind some of our most memorable gaming experiences.

The first computer game, "Spacewar!", was created in 1962 by Steve Russell and his colleagues at MIT. It featured two spaceships battling in space and was developed on the PDP-1 computer. "Spacewar!" demonstrated the potential of computers for entertainment and played a significant role in the evolution of the video game industry. #eurasiawebconferences #FirstComputerGame #Spacewar #GamingHistory #VideoGameOrigins #SteveRussell #MIT #PDP1 #1960sTech #GamingEvolution #ClassicGames #GameDevelopment #TechHistory

Cyberpunk 2077 is offering a limited edition of the game on 3.5" floppies. It's a bit of nostalgia back to the 80s. It's also April fools because that would require over 97,000 floppy disks and require over 2 months of continuous floppy swapping. What makes this interesting is it goes to show how much software has changed since the 1980s to today. if we go back to 1984 (circa Neuromancer) that's 40 years ago. Our systems are much more complex and much more driven by high fidelity content. in fact pretty much all of software has become this complicated. It's a sign of great progress. https://lnkd.in/ewqkny2C

GameRant says Caves of Qud is the #1 Best Early Access Roguelike Game https://lnkd.in/gwBnpkFY "Caves of Qud is a great traditional roguelike with more than a passing resemblance to the genre’s namesake, Rogue. Unlike those classic games, however, Caves of Qud is much more focused on delivering a cohesive world and a great story. That said, this game is very capable of delivering the sort of character creation shenanigans that the genre is known for. Just looking at its players’ examples gives a sense of how vast Caves of Qud’s possibility space is. Become an amnesiac telepath, turn the protagonist’s bones into metal, attach a few extra limbs, and then turn those limbs into animal parts to become a super chimera. Playing Caves of Qud means exploring this degree of variation, and because of that, the game will remain in early access for the foreseeable future."

TL;DR: CD Projekt Red has ended development on Cyberpunk 2077, marking a significant moment in gaming. The game’s decade-long journey included delays, updates, and the Phantom Liberty expansion. Attention now turns to Project Orion, signaling a new chapter for the studio. #Cyberpunk2077 #CDProjektRed #GamingLegacy #PhantomLiberty #ProjectOrion

🌟 Exciting new read! Check out the latest blog post "Convergence to Nash Equilibrium and No-regret Guarantee in (Markov) Potential Games" on arXiv. This work delves into potential games and Markov potential games under stochastic cost and bandit feedback, presenting a variant of the Frank-Wolfe algorithm that guarantees convergence to the Nash equilibrium while achieving sublinear regret for each player. The algorithm showcases impressive results in both potential games and Markov potential games, even without prior knowledge of game specifics.

Willis Gibson, a teenager from Oklahoma, has achieved a significant milestone by becoming the first human player to conquer Tetris, the renowned Nintendo video game, thirty-four years after its release. The momentous occasion was captured on camera as Willis Gibson reached level 157, causing the game to crash. He excitedly uploaded the video of this achievement to his YouTube account. Overwhelmed, the 13-year-old exclaimed, "I'm going to pass out, I can't feel my fingers," as he tumbled back into his chair. Previously, in 2010, professional competitive gamer Thor Aackerlund had used a technique called hypertapping to reach level 30, involving vibrating the controller at a speed faster than the game allows. Following this, other players adopted hypertapping and various strategies to challenge themselves. However, until last month, only artificial intelligence (AI) had managed to reach the game's actual kill screen. In Tetris, a kill screen occurs when a player completes a level, leading to the game crashing. In Willis's remarkable 38-minute run, the screen collapses, and the falling blocks stop as he emerges victorious. Known as Blue Scuti on YouTube, Willis has been playing Tetris since he was eleven and has participated in several gaming competitions. His achievement marks a remarkable feat in the gaming world. #First #Human #Nintendo #Tetris #Game #Beat
