Helldivers 2 bossman Pilestedt rocks up on Discord for the first time in a little bit to answer about ten million questions and reflect on the criticism

It’s been a little bit of time since Helldivers 2 players have heard much from former Arrowhead CEO and still very much chief creative officer Johan Pilestedt, with the developer seemigly having enjoyed some very well-earned time off. Now, however, he’s made a bit of a return in rather grand fashion, by answering Discord questions from everyone and their mum.Naturally, the flak the studio has faced from players following the deployment of the most recent batch of weapon balancing changes – the one Arrowhead announced that much-discussed 60-day plan of changes that it’s already acting upon in reponse to – came up, as it has in 99% of dev chats about the game over the last little while.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settings “It’s hard.

Shang-Chi 2, Naruto, and now potentially Spider-Man 4? It sounds like Destin Daniel Cretton has a lot on his plate

It looks like Marvel has finally found a director for Spider-Man 4 in a familiar face – Shang-Chi’s Destin Daniel Cretton.There’s long been talk of a potential Spider-Man 4, including from the current incarnation of the character Tom Holland himself, but not much has been set in stone for it so far.

It doesn’t sound like things are 100% locked in quite yet, though this is the closest Marvel appears to have gotten with signing on a director – it was reported earlier this year that Fast & Furious director Justin Lin was being eyed-up for it, but that appears to have not worked out.To see this content please enable targe…

There are constant questions over whether GTA 6 will be delayed, but one former Rockstar dev thinks any announcement of a delay won’t come until next year.Earlier this month, some rumours started to spread that GTA 6 had been delayed, but Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier (known for his strong reputation when it comes to insider information) says that that doesn’t seem to be the case after speaking with six employees at Rockstar – though he did also make it clear that these devs haven’t been informed of a delay, meaning one could still be coming, but right now it doesn’t seem to be happening. Of course, with all this talk of delays, it’s still on the minds of a lot of players eager to jump into what is probably the most anticipated sequel of the decade.To see this content please enable targeting …
