However, things continued to evolve for the company in the years since Destiny launched. The studio, along with the help of Activision, put out a well regarded sequel, which continues receiving new content and updates to this day. However, Activision eventually pulled out, leaving the future of Destiny solely in Bungie’s hands. Not content to be a one game studio, Chinese conglomerate NetEase invested $100 million in Bungie to get a minority stake as well as help develop a new IP known as Matter....

Today, we have another such example that comes straight from a member of the video game industry, involving courage and upholding justice in the community. Bungie, the creators of the Halo franchise, have shown the world what a variety of futuristic human and alien weapons can do when shot non-stop for hours on end. The employees of Bungie however, know that real life doesn’t work that way (see, video games don’t lead to violence!...

A notable issue that players have noticed in Destiny 2 is the teleporting enemies in activities, not the same way the time-traveling robotic Vex do, but more like one minute enemies are there and the next they’re somewhere else. Bungie’s update provides more details on why this has been happening in the game, and how it’s working to resolve the issue.

So, those who signed into Destiny 2 after the weekly reset this Tuesday and were without Weekly Challenges are in luck. Players will get Weekly Challenges and a chance at Powerful Rewards from the Gambit, Crucible, and Heroic Story Mission playlists back after the patch is downloaded and installed. This issue impacted nearly every player, but had different results depending on how much progress one had made when the accidental weekly reset occurred on Saturday....

On Tuesday, Bungie offered a preview of Destiny 2’s next update as part of the studio’s This Week at Bungie blog post. The upcoming patch includes a long list of Photosensitivity Changes, adjustments to the Blind Well event, changes to how players acquire Exotic Ornaments, and a variety of other tweaks and fixes.

Following this week’s reset, Destiny 2 players discovered that Osiris had a strange and unexpected new quest waiting for them at the Sundial destination. The quest itself takes players back into the Corridors of Time, last seen when attempting to rescue Saint-14. At that time, the corridors were largely blocked or locked in order to help guide players through a specific path. RELATED: Destiny 2 Player Suggests Brilliant Way to Solve Ghost Perk Problems...

Since the Halo franchise is no longer in their control, and they’ve made a ten-year deal with Activision to develop a brand new IP, they’ll need to create something big to keep themselves as relevant as Halo. In order to do so, they are calling upon loyal fans to help them as beta testers. Here’s the official announcement from the Bungie blog: Bungie explains that the help they may request will range from playtests and usability testing, surveys on gameplay habits, as well as alpha and beta testing for their next release....

SavorEat has unveiled a cooking robot that makes vegan burgers, which an app can control. The automaton, which is meant to be used by restaurants, customizes each patty based on your preferences. However, robots like the one introduced by SavorEat are still limited in their abilities. “The introduction and use of robots or automation were not meant to replace the human worker,” Udi Shamai, the CEO of HYPER, an automated food company, told Lifewire in an email interview....

The point puts Dortmund through to the next stage, but Atletico Madrid’s 2-0 win over Monaco earlier in the day now has Diego Simeone’s men in control of Group A. Dortmund were on top for most of the match against Brugge and created the better chances, with Christian Pulisic and Marco Reus spurning the best two in the first period. In the second half they rarely looked like breaking through Brugge’s well-marshalled backline and Burki was left ruing the movement of Dortmund’s attackers, as Atletico look clear favourites to progress as group winners ahead of the final round of fixtures....

Just what’s happened since remains unclear, as foreign media have been banned from the country. But there are chilling signs of a crackdown similar to the one in 1988, after pro-democracy demonstrations paralyzed Burma. In that episode, some 3,000 people were ultimately killed. Now human-rights groups and the few foreign journalists in Rangoon report mass arrests by truncheon-wielding riot troops and scattered shootings; a handful of protesters have been killed....

The transfer fee for the 23-year-old, who was out of contract at the Championship club and rejected the chance to stay, will be set by a tribunal. “It is my first move permanently away from Leeds, so it is something different for me but something I can’t wait to crack on with,” left-back Taylor told Burnley’s website after the move went through on Thursday. “I have been there since I was nine and I knew it was the right time really....

Burnley has 12 points from 16 games and is two points from danger. Burnley, which had picked up just two points from its previous eight matches, scored in the 40th minute at Turf Moor when Jack Cork hit a shot and the ball went in off teammate Tarkowski. The defender almost added a second with a 62nd-minute header before Brighton substitute Juergen Locadia nodded over from a great position and Solly March struck narrowly wide....

The Switch version of the game will run at 60 frames-per-second and have a file size of just under 4 GB. Burnout Paradise Remastered isn’t the only EA game coming this year either as EA announced plans to bring over more games to the portable console, including Apex Legends, releasing this fall. RELATED: New Need For Speed Game Confirmed By EA In an unsurprising move, the Nintendo Switch version of Burnout Paradise Remastered comes with a hefty price tag....

“You understand what I am facing,” he said. “I have to alert the American people to the ongoing dangers without creating alarm and irrational fear. How do I walk that line?” Worry was justified. “Another crisis could hit us, more terrible than this one,” he said, according to notes and recollections of several clergy. “It could be more terrible–biological, chemical or plutonium. I don’t have direct evidence,” he said, “but I have enough evidence....

After winning the first two Tests, England were outclassed by the tourists, falling 203 runs short - largely thanks to a dismal first innings in which Root’s men were bowled out for 161. That gave England a mountain to climb, although Buttler - recording his first Test century - and Stokes combined for 169 in a composed showing at odds with the rest of the batting group. And Root acknowledges that the rest of the team must learn from the pair, who showed the requisite temperament to succeed in the long form game....

Despite that minor snub, Russian arms makers and the Chinese military have lately developed a very cozy relationship–one built on mutual need. The Russians badly need export earnings, while the Chinese need modern weapons–or at least arms more advanced than those in their creaky arsenal. Beijing’s 1989 Tiananmen crackdown triggered a boycott of Western arms sales to China, leaving that country desperate for dependable suppliers. Russia has stepped into the breach, and it is now the biggest seller of big-ticket military hardware to China....

Last year’s runner-up PV Sindhu defeated the defending champion, Akane Yamaguchi 24-22, 21-15 in a match lasting 52 minutes. The match started with Sindhu taking a 3-1 lead. But Yamaguchi’s amazing retrieving skills resulted in a lot of errors creeping out of Sindhu’s racquet. At the mid-game interval, Yamaguchi managed to take an 11-6 lead. But the tall Indian refused to give up. The rallies got more intense as the match progressed....
