A
Capcom Unity post apparently revealed a "next spring" release window for
Street Fighter V, but the post about the upcoming brawler sequel no longer
states when to expect a release. "Everyone is fired up for Street Fighter V,
coming to PS4 and PC next Spring," is how the post read before it was edited,
reports PCGamesN, while it now says: "Everyone is fired up for Street
Fighter V coming to the PS4 and PC." There's no comment with this, so it's not
clear if the date was removed because it was inaccurate, or if they just want to
keep it under wraps.
The Roberts Space Industries website has a post
Reintroducing the Aegis Retaliator in
Star Citizen along with
another article on a new damage system in the space combat game. These
include videos, as we have an
Aegis Retaliator
Pre-Flight Check trailer and a
New Damage Model trailer
showing off what's being discussed. Here's more on the damage model:
So we
took a top down look our damage system to review what we could improve, and
although there is great satisfaction in peeling off each part of an enemy ship
when they take major damage, we felt we could better represent the specific
location and type of damage inflicted. Whether it be a projectile weapon, an
energy weapon, an explosion or scratching your ship after a dodgy landing, we
want you to be able to differentiate them just from looking at your ship. We
felt this was going to be especially important in our game as we want each ship
to tell a story of what’s is been through.

A
Steam Community group announcement has word on a free new "Women in History"
DLC pack being released today for
Europa Universalis IV
to celebrate International Women’s Day. Here's word:
To mark
International Women’s Day (March 8th) Paradox Development Studio has created a
free update for Europa Universalis IV, adding 100 great women of history to the
game. Each character can be generated through event triggers (a weak regency, a
colonial empire, certain ideas, etc.). Players will then have choices about how
to use this talented woman. Some may join your court as advisors, some might be
suitable for riskier employment as rulers or leaders.
Thomas Johansson, the head of Paradox Development Studio, says that this DLC
does something important for the company’s flagship title. "It's no surprise
that the role of women in history isn't as well known as that of men,” Johansson
says. “Europa Universalis, admittedly, hasn't done a lot to foreground their
contributions. We thought that International Women's Day was the best time to do
a little bit to help balance the scales and introduce our audience to some very
interesting people."

Well Daylight Saving Time began in these parts in the wee hours this morning,
making for one fewer of those wee hours than normal. Nobody likes losing sleep,
but the forecast says to expect sunset at 6:55 pm this evening, which I will
appreciate. All-in-all, I'm calling it a win.
