Ian Huston: There can be misconceptions toward esports professionals when compared to what people view as traditional athletes. However, this perception is slowly changing as esports becomes more mainstream and people recognize what preparation and sacrifice is needed in being a professional. I personally think that the next step in esports’ march towards the mainstream revolves around players and their personal streaming. It’s been a form of entertainment for so many for so long and the main way to view competitions, but there’s been a pivot this year where celebrities and businesses have taken it more seriously as a way to directly connect with their intended audien
So, one person comes up with the name of the animal, and everyone else has to ask questions to figure out what the animal is that you’re thinking of, so it’s good. It’s a fun way to interact with everyone and laugh together. And it’s something that my wife is actually much better at than I am. So I’m learning with the kids, and it’s good for us, and it’s good for families to do. We go out to eat too often, and see the entire family on their iPhones and iPads, and nobody’s talking to anybody. That’s just not okay for me. That might be okay for some, but it’s not okay for me and my kids and my family and my relationship with them. To each his own, but that’s how we
Given the many titles that could have been compelling additions to our Best Multiplayer Games of 2017 list, it should come as no surprise that we believe this may have been the best year in multiplayer gaming since the release of Halo: Combat Evolved . Did we miss any that you would’ve placed here? Any games you think might surpass the ones on this list in 2018? Let us know in the comments be
**Can you talk about the differences between PUBG on PC (or console) and PUBG on mobile? Do you feel like you play the game differently? Are any of your strategies easier or more difficult to implement in the mobile format
You know, I think there’s a time and a place for all things. I think TV and movies… When the sun goes down, and because of daylight savings it gets dark early, we’ve got time inside the house. So then it’s like, okay, let’s Hitman GO mobile on Apple TV and pick a movie, and all of the family sits down and watch that. But let’s not sit in front of the television and watch, you know, brainlessly until we fall asleep or enter a vegetative state! (Laughs) So we try to find other forms of entertainment. We also play a lot of board games as a family, we play a lot of… One of the big games we play, especially during breakfast and dinner, we try to all sit around the table together and play the animal guessing g
„Like the current free-to-open system, you will be limited in the number of crates you can receive each week, with the crate prices being reset each Monday. Currently, this limit is set to 6 crates per week, and you are free to trade them on the Steam Marketplace. I also want to point out that the full cosmetic system is still being discussed internally, and we are taking your concerns into consideration when it comes to the ability to get free cosmetics by playing the ga
Ian Huston: As a manager overseeing a team preparing to compete, I do allow my players to play other game titles to avoid any fatigue or burnout that comes from grinding a game. There is a clear respect from everyone to put in the hours and to achieve the objectives set forth for practice. After this is completed, the team is encouraged to have proper rest and relaxation, which sometimes manifests as playing something e
Perhaps the most contentious pick on this list, Destiny 2 hasn’t really been seen as a multiplayer game in the same sense as the rest of the titles in this article. Despite the PvP elements of Bungie’s follow-up effort to Destiny remaining as polarizing as ever, though, there’s no disputing that Destiny 2 is one of the most successful multiplayer games of the y
There are so many corporations that are unregulated and they’re just destroying the environment, literally as we speak, and they’re making so much money. How do you fight something like that? How do you change their minds? How do we reverse this self-destruct course that humanity is
I don’t want to take away from anybody. I think there are a lot of people who have causes that mean a lot to them, and I think that’s great. This one, for Megan and I, with our kids and our family, it just really rings true and makes sense. It touches a certain part of us. Before this campaign began, this was something Megan and I were really active in. It’s really bothered us, and we sat with out seven-year-old son while he’s cried during news footage of the fires in the Amazon. To be be able to say we’re part of this, and for him to know exactly what it is, and know what we’re fighting for, it means a lot to us. For future generations, and for our family as well. There’s a really tie to it for us. It’s a big honor for us to be part of it, it really
