Bethesda’s upcoming patch for ‘Fallout 76’ will be newbie-friendly

Bethesda wants to make sure it’s going to be easier for newcomers to play the game. Patch 11, which is set for a mid-July release, will also make it easier for players who take new characters out for a spin to play the game. The game will ease up on the challenges players face at the beginning of the game. Some examples cited include: “characters under level 25 will pay fewer caps when fast traveling, those under level 15 will have higher disease resistance, and we’re replacing a number of early-game Challenge rewards with items and other supplies that will give these Dwellers a better chance at survival.”

Areas that are hard for newbies or first-timers to traverse will have their difficulties lowered. As Bethesda said in its blog post, “We’re also looking to reduce creature difficulty in a few sub-regions within the Ash Heap, the Savage Divide, and Toxic Valley so that Dwellers who are stepping out of the Forest for the first time have fewer encounters with higher-level enemies.” Other changes include raw food lasting 50 percent longer with food and drink not losing its condition after fast travelling. Item descriptions will be improved. And the patch will address bugs like CAMP building errors in Pioneer Scout Challenges as well as looping gunshot sound effects.

We’ve already heard that Marvel is coming to the San Diego Comic-Con this year. Now, we get official confirmation. Hall H panel is taking place on July 20^th from 5:15 p.m. to 6:45 p.m. PT. The description of the panel says “Marvel Studios president and producer Kevin Feige and surprise panelists provide an inside look at the ever-expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe.” Now, what we’re waiting for is how much of Phase 4 will Feige reveal. MCU is known for keeping its cards very, very close to its chest. Right now the things we know are Black Widow is filming and projects in different stages of pre-production include The Eternals, Doctor Strange 2, and Black Panther 2. And we might also get Spider-Man-related news because it’s being said that Sony’s and Marvel’s deal means there would be another Spider-Man film coming in 2021.

Rumours claim Apple is developing a foldable iPad with 5G

The foldable device market has been off to a shaky start. But that doesn’t mean companies aren’t developing products for this segment. Or at least being rumoured to be working on things. Apple is the latest one, it seems. According to IHS Markit analyst Jeff Lin, Apple is working on its own foldable device. But instead of a foldable iPhone, the focus is on a foldable iPad. And that this model will support 5G, similar to the other devices from Samsung and Huawei. It’ll also reportedly have the latest A series processor and a display that’s nearly as large as the current MacBook line. However, he didn’t elaborate on the design of the device, so we can’t say how the screen will fold. Lin does say it’ll be highly portable and have “business-friendly” features, which could finally turn the tablet into a real laptop replacement.

Lin’s timeline is that it could come out as soon as next year. But it must be noted that we haven’t seen a 5G version of the iPhone yet. However, rumours have been going around that the iPad line will get 5G connectivity ahead of the iPhone. For now, we have to wait and see which rumour holds up.

Night Sight might get more attention in the new version of Google Camera

The teardown of the Google Camera app didn’t just reveal what we can expect from the next Pixel phone. It also shows us what current Pixel users can expect, like Pixel 3’s Night Sight mode. It looks like version 6.3 will make this feature more prominent. Instead of it being kept in the More panel, it’ll take the place of the Panorama option in the main camera interface.

One other feature that might come to Google Camera is McFly mode, which is a nod to the famous Back To The Future movies. The mode appears alongside a reference to the word rewind. This could mean you can record video clips and play these in reverse, which could be similar to one of the filters Snapchat has. For now, we don’t have word yet when Google will roll out this version of the app.
