Team17 Digital (@Team17) confirmed that its upcoming, in-house developed black comedy slasher-adventure, Killer Frequency (@KillerFrequency), will be arriving on Xbox Series, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, PC Steam and Meta Quest 2 on Thursday, June 1st, 2023. Check out the official console announcement trailer!

Team17's Killer Frequency hits the airwaves in June on Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, PC and Meta Quest 2

Killer Frequency is a first person horror adventure that puts you in the shoes of Forrest Nash, a late-night radio host whose callers are being stalked by a mysterious killer. Solve puzzles, save lives and run the switchboards, all while listening to a jukebox of retro tunes!

Set during the 1980s in a Midwestern US town where a serial killer is on the loose, Killer Frequency follows Forrest Nash, a washed-up DJ and presenter of the ‘The Scream’ late night show, as he tries to help listeners and callers stalked by a mysterious masked murderer.

As the gruesome night unfolds, interact with callers to the show using a variety of conversation options while listening carefully for clues and information, solve puzzles around the studio that could help prevent their grisly demise, and keep the show going with tunes inspired by the decade. In Killer Frequency, death can come easy but is never assured, so it’s up to you to help Forrest prevent the slaughter, discover the killer’s true identity, and keep the grooves going until dawn.

Killer Frequency Features Include:

  • Stay on air: Take control of the switchboard and explore an authentic 1980s radio studio as you guide the fates of your late-night listeners stalked by a mysterious killer

  • Stop the slaughter: Take calls from potential victims while gathering clues, making decisions, and solving satisfying puzzles that could help each caller survive the night

  • Unmask the killer: Interact with a variety of larger-than-life personalities including callers, potential suspects, and a charismatic producer while jamming to a jukebox of 1980s-inspired tunes

  • All can live or die: Choose from a variety of conversation options to interact with callers – will you guide them to safety or broadcast their last moments live on air?

  • Play on flatscreen and in VR: Built from the ground-up for Meta Quest 2 at 72 frames-per-second for a latency-free experience, and available in flatscreen mode on Steam and consoles.

Killer Frequency arrives June 1st on Xbox Series, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Steam and Meta Quest 2.

Check out this exclusive Xbox One Helicopter Gameplay and read on for the complete list of updates for Battlefield 4.

SOLDIER TRAVERSAL AND COLLISION

Significant improvements have been madeto how the soldier traverses the world. Walking over smallobjects, inclines and lips is now handled gracefully by the engine – it really has to be played to feel the immense difference this makes

NETCODE IMPROVEMENTS


Major improvements have been made to the Battlefield 4 network layer.

  • Improved long range network updates by adding a cone to the High Frequency Update

  • Network prioritization and filtering has been improved, now prioritizes health/damage, enemy players and vehicles above all.

The High Frequency Update now uses half a sphere and a 45 degree cone for players on foot

  • Vehicles now use a larger (front) hemi-sphere shape for collision improvements

  • Aiming down sights/zooming in sitting in a vehicle or on foot utilizes an even longer range cone for better target acquisition at a distance


Vehicle hemisphere shown in combination with zoomed view which use a more narrow longer range cone

  • Required bandwidth close to cut in half - Players with less stellar network connections should get a significant improvement, now able to
    use the High Frequency Update.

Battlefield 3 update hits PS3 March 27th, Xbox 360 & PC coming soon

Battlefield 3 update hits PS3 March 27th, Xbox 360 & PC coming soon
Published by: forahobby on Saturday, March 24, 2012
Tagged: Gaming, Xbox 360, Xbox Live,

EA and DICE have been hard at work collecting and working on feedback and suggestions for the next BF3 update, and have announced that the next patch for Battlefield 3 will be released for PlayStation 3 on the 27th of March. More information on the Xbox 360 and PC updates will come soon.


This patch includes many gameplay tweaks and balances; several suggested by you. The full list of changes and updates is as follows. This update will also bring the “Rent a Server” functionality to Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. For more updated information on this functionality, check back next week.

FIXES FOR PC SERVER OPERATION
- Having the same map occur multiple times in the maplist now works properly
- If adding a new map to the servers maplist after a clear and then running “mapList.runNextRound” the server will ignore any remaining rounds on the map that it still run since before the clear and move to the new first map in the list. The server will now have reset the current rounds per map and run the map in the list for the number of rounds stated when adding the map.
- Maplist can contain up to 1000 entries now
- mapList.list will return at most 100 entries. To get the entire list, perform mapList.list repeatedly with increasing offsets (like banList.list)

GENERAL GAMEPLAY FIXES
-Players should no longer take fall damage from short falls.
-Players now get up from Prone slightly faster, allowing better odds of getting away from a grenade or threat when prone.
-Fixed some situations that would unintentionally make a player unrevivable.
-Reduced the black screen fade in time on spawn. The fade is still necessary for properly streaming in loading content at spawn, but it has been substantially reduced.
-Increased the spawn protection time from 1sec to 2sec. The protection will still be immediately canceled as soon as the player moves or shoots.
-Spawn protection will no longer be canceled by the player looking around.
-Increased the speed at which a player regains accuracy when aiming after moving for a more responsive experience. Firing before fully zoomed will still result inaccurate fire.
-Increased the inaccuracy and recoil added when a player is fully suppressed.
-Shotgun Buck and Flechette rounds now have a less suppressive effect at medium to long range.
-Tweaked the damage levels of Buck and Flechette rounds to balance them with other weapons.
-Improved the suppression of the .44 magnum, .357 magnum, and the 5.8x42mm DAP88 rounds from the Type88 sniper.
-Attempting to Crouch (like Prone) will now properly interrupt Sprint.
-Increased the effectiveness of Suppression Resist Specialization.
-Parachutes now respond to turn and throttle inputs more quickly.
-Switching from primary weapons to sidearms and back now takes less time.
-Increased the effectiveness of explosive resistance.
-Tweaked bipod deploy settings so players can no longer deploy a bipod in places higher than chin level.
-The bipod should now be more reliable when deploying on top of sloped objects like cars and rocks.
-Fixed several issues with vaulting objects, especially for thin railings.
-The Knife now only takes two swipes to kill when attacking from a position where a takedown is not possible.
-CRAM weapons on Carriers now count towards stationary weapon awards.
