Killing Floor 2 Regional Gore Cuts Possible [1:57 pm ET] – Share – 10 Comments
A
post by Tripwire Interactive on Steam warns potential customers of
Killing Floor 2 that the upcoming first-person shooter sequel may have some
of its gore cut upon full release to comply with regional standards (thanks
GBase.ch). Here's word:
It is quite likely that there are some regions where we may be required to make cuts in the future, particularly in the gore system, to comply with local ratings boards, once we get the game into its full release status. Regions most likely at risk of this are Germany (via USK) and Australia (via OFLC). Japan is another possibility (via CERO), but is an unknown quantity to us. To be quite clear: this means that, if you are buying from a region which regularly forces cuts on to games for gore, you may get reduced gore when we go to the full release version of the game.
If we understand the Steam system correctly, if a change is made to a region this will apply to all keys from that region (post purchase).
New Mass Effect Details? [1:57 pm ET] – Share – 14 Comments
A
post on reddit claims to offer details on the next Mass Effect game
offered by a user named
benjamin_stone who says they come from a survey. This survey would appear to
answer as many questions as it asks, as the post if rife with details. All this
is unconfirmed at this time, so we accept no responsibility for any high-stakes
bets lost as a result of this information. Thanks
VG247.
