Welcome to a topic where we can just talk about whatever patch notes or update news on existing games came out today, without a new topic for every one of them!!
You can put the game name, what happened when you post that caught your eye, and your thoughts on it, then others can discuss or post other things that catch their eye about other games that day.
I’ll start with the ones relevant to me!

Game - Sea of Thieves -
News - Getting an update on April 30 with story mode, that should last 15-25 hrs, 9 chapters, Arena mode for the BR peeps, and fishing!
Ok, this is awesome news!!! I have Sea of Thieves, and while I really like playing it with @Scavenger something always felt slightly missing. This is it. Co-op story mode!!! It’ll make it like Strange Brigade, (another awesome co-op story game we like!) but with pirates! Arena mode, meh, the whole game is already arena mode, but this will satisfy the people that want a BR mode and are too impatient for to go out and look for other ships. The fishing sounds really really cool. 10/10 for this update that is apparently free for those that own the game already.
Game - Fortnite -
patch 8.30 - Getting a reboot van where fallen teammates drop cards that you can pick up, and then take to the reboot van, and bring them back…
Good gracious, they aren’t even attempting at all to mask a direct copy of Apex Legends! C’mon Epic make your game your own. LOL However this doesn’t really affect me, because the only BR part of Fortnite that I really play is the Team Rumble, large 50 v50 thing.
In Save the World, the part I DO play a lot, we get a new hero. cool. I just got to Canny Valley last night, a friend helped me get there, and its just as hilarious as the rest of the story. Story mode with a friend makes this game for me, I actually hate the BR side of it.
Game - PUBG
patch - got some kind of performance update, and new vehicles for the snow map
Well, if performance is updated, then hoping its a huge difference and is cool. I’d like to say that the reason I can’t hit the broad side of a barn from 10 ft away is due to lag. hahah, we shall see. But it does take forever to load in a map, and sometimes it bugs and stays on the load screen because it takes so long, and thats mentioned in the patch notes as a fix, so hoping for the best!
The new vehicles ought to be cool, because the snow map is my favorite of all of them.
(I’m actually enjoying this game again, now that they made it so I can get keys for all these stupid crates, without paying real money for each one. )
