It’s Wednesday my, dudes. (I’m sorry)
Today is another one of those “some good, some bad” news days. Here’s what we have:

  • Call of Duty: WWII fixed their dedicated servers
  • Resident Evil Revelations on Nintendo Switch has motion controls
  • Marvel Heroes will be shutting down
  • Destiny 2 live stream shows off details about their first expansion

Call of Duty Gets Dedicated
When Call of Duty: WWII launched, it was a slew of technical problems. Dedicated servers were failing, Headquarters wasn’t working, unreliable network connections. It was rough. Sledgehammer Games, the developers of CoD: WWII, shut down the dedicated servers and disabled the multiplayer aspect to Headquarters, the game’s social lobby, so that they could minimize unpleasant gameplay. These issues even led them to decide to delay the implementation of microtransactions until they were confident it could be fixed (as reported in yesterday’s post). Now Sledgehammer Games is pleased to announce that with a patch to PC, dedicated multiplayer servers are back again. They have been working hard this last week trying to resolve these issues, and its great to see them making progress in the name of fixing the game.

Resident Evil Motion Controls
Resident Evil: Revelations was originally released on Nintendo 3DS in 2012. It was a decent game that struggled to stand out in the crowd of handheld hits. Capcom had announced that Revelations 1 and 2 will both be coming to the Nintendo Switch on November 28. In a video (seen on the left) released by Capcom, its revealed that the Switch port will have a collection of motion controls added. While motion controls are definitely Nintendo’s thing, nearly all cases before this were gimmicky and quickly tiresome. I can’t help but believe this would be the same.

Rest in Peace Marvel Heroes
The free-to-play RPG, Marvel Heroes, will be shutting down in the near future according to a Disney representative. A statement made in an email to Kotaku from a Disney rep says that business with the game’s developer has come to an end and that the game itself will be closing as a result. No date was given as to when this will happen. My sympathies to the players.

Destiny 2 Livestream
Bungie ran a live stream showing off some of the details of their upcoming expansion for Destiny 2, Curse of Osiris. Here the player explores the decaying planet of Mercury. Some changes include a new power cap of 330, a new experience cap of 25 and the return of heroic strike playlist. While that’s the only details revealed so far, 2 more live streams will be taking place before the expansion launches of December 5th for console and PC. You can watch the video of the live stream on their Twitch.
