    《暗黑破壞神4》正式推出測試伺服器:但並非每個賽季都有

    在最新的直播中,暴雪宣布《暗黑破壞神4》下一賽季的更新量將超過去年遊戲第二賽季,並且宣布玩家將有機會通過測試服提前體驗這些新功能。


    自從遊戲第一賽季推出以來,玩家一直呼籲暴雪為遊戲添加與《暗黑破壞神3》和《暗黑破壞神2:重製版》相似的PTR(公共測試領域/測試服)。第三賽季推出後出現的大量問題再次證明了測試服的重要性,顯然暴雪也認識到了這一點。
    然而,在直播中暴雪解釋稱,並非每個賽季都會有測試服。社區副總監 Adam Flecher 表示:“這取決於我們所做改變的規模,但對於第四賽季,我們絕對計劃開放PTR。”隨後開發者表示測試服上線日期和第四賽季內容將在“幾週後”的另一場直播中公布。
    暴雪尚未公布第四賽季的具體內容,但承諾將對裝備掉落的機制進行大規模而根本性的改動。目前,掉落的裝備中只有少量值得保留,大部分都會被轉化為材料,這需要玩家花費大量時間查看裝備數值。

    在之前的直播中,暴雪曾表示,第四賽季的目標是讓掉落的裝備變得更有價值,無論它們是否比你目前的裝備更好。這很可能是一種類似《流放之路》等其他ARPG的改造系統。
    新的直播還透露了第四賽季對死靈法師召喚物的重大改動,該職業召喚的骷髏等隨從可能會隨著角色升級而變得更強,類似於第三賽季中的機械蜘蛛隨從。實時服務首席設計師 Adam Jackson 表示:“讓隨從變得更出色是我們的首要任務之一。除了下周季中的補丁外,我們還計劃在第四賽季中推出許多內容。”

    The Olympic Esports Series (abbreviated as OES) is the second installment of the International Olympic Committee's (abbreviated as IOC) virtual sports competitions. With all its online qualifiers completed, the offline finals are set to take place in Singapore from June 22 to 25. However, when the IOC announced the 9 competing game titles at the Olympic Esports Series back in March this year, they were promptly hit with backlash from the gaming communities due to the insignificance of several selected games and the overall lacking representation of "esports".

  5. Acer Nitro vs. Predator: What is the Difference?

    Acer Nitro vs. Predator: What is the Difference?

    Some of the most popular gaming laptops fall under the Acer Nitro and Acer Predator brands, with several different monitors, desktops, and peripheral devices also being sold under these brands. The Nitro series is known for offering good performance for its price range, whereas the Predator series offers superior technology.

    Most people struggle to pick between the two brands because several of the laptops from both series share similar price tags and specs. With some of the models containing very high-end components, it's important that you pick the right machine. So in this article, we're going to explore these two popular gaming laptop series.

    Acer Nitro

    The Acer Nitro is a series of budget gaming computers that first launched in 2017 and that is marketed to gamers looking for high-performance machines at a reasonable price point. The Nitro series includes desktops, laptops, monitors, and other accessories and competes with other midrange computers. The series was introduced with the Nitro 5 laptop, which featured a 2.50-GHz Intel Core i5-7300HQ, a 4-GB NVIDIA® GeForce GTX 1050 Ti, and 8 GB of DDR4 SDRAM. Since 2017, Acer has released several iterations of the Nitro gaming laptop series, including the Nitro 7, 16, and 17. Acer also has a wide range of gaming monitors and a desktop machine under the Nitro brand.

    Best options for Acer Nitro (for budget gamers):

    • Acer Nitro 5 

    • Acer Nitro 7

    • Acer Nitro 17

    Acer Predator

    The Acer Predator series offers high-performance gaming laptops and monitors designed to deliver exceptional gaming experiences, with powerful hardware and advanced features. Acer Predator has a strong presence at a number of major international gaming tournaments and hosts the annual Predator League, which is an international event held by Acer every year to reinforce the commitment of Predator in supporting the gaming industry, particularly in the Asia Pacific region. Predator's "It Lies Within" website even won the prestigious Webby awards in 2023 for its impressive design.

    There are currently two laptop families under Predator: Triton and Helios. Triton is lightweight, slim, and sleek, designed for gamers and prosumers who are always on the go, whereas the Helios series consists of midrange and premium laptops with stellar specs that can replace desktop computers. Predator also covers a series of monitors that deliver exceptional visual fidelity and can support games with the most demanding conditions, with refresh rates of up to 360 Hz. Predator is an excellent choice for serious gamers who demand the best possible visuals.

    The Predator range also includes mice, headsets, keyboards, routers, desks and even a backpack.

    Best options for Acer Predator (for hardcore gamers):

    • Acer Predator Helios 300 

    • Acer Predator Triton 500 SE 

    • A

    For a little bit extra, you can go with the Helios 16, a powerhouse gaming machine of the Predator series. The Helios 16 laptop provides excellent value for money, with a medium-sized display, superior chassis design for excellent cooling performance, and a latest-gen Intel i9 CPU. This machine can deliver excellent performance even with the heaviest games, thanks to the inclusion of the Nvidia RTX™ 4080 graphics card. Notably, any 4080 or above can run games in 4K, meaning this machine will be capable of playing modern games well into the future. If you want to experience the stunning graphics of in 1080p at 60 fps or if you want to play , , or at the highest settings, this top-level is the one to get.
