STAR CITIZEN WILL SUPPORT THE VULKAN API AND WILL EVENTUALLY DROP DIRECTX 11 SUPPORT
http://www.dsogaming.com/news/star-citizen-will-support-the-vulkan-api-and-will-eventually-drop-directx-11-support/
Cloud Imperium’s Alistair Brown has revealed that Star Citizen will support the Vulkan API – instead of DirectX 12 – in the near future. As Brown claimed, Cloud Imperium will be using Vulkan as it is available on all the latest Windows operating system and sports the same feature set and performance advantages of DX12.

>>It's a very sensible choice that will allow them to target not only Win7, 8 & 10 but also Linux users, but I doubt MSoft is happy to see such an AAA game ditch not only DX12, but also eventually 11 for Vulkan.

KERBAL SPACE PROGRAM IS GETTING ITS FIRST EVER EXPANSION, CALLED MAKING HISTORY
http://www.pcgamer.com/kerbal-space-program-is-getting-its-first-ever-expansion-called-making-history/
Squad delivered some pretty big news with the announcement of the first KSP expansion, Making History. It includes two distinct components: The Mission Builder, a set of "intuitive drag-and-drop" tools that will let players design and share their own missions, and the History Pack, a series of pre-made missions that will recreate historical, real-life missions into space.

DICE IS CHANGING THE WAY BATTLEFIELD 1 AMMO RESUPPLIES WORK
http://www.pcgamer.com/dice-is-changing-the-way-battlefield-1-ammo-resupplies-work/
Some changes were made to Battlefield 1 grenade resupplies in the recently-released They Shall Not Pass expansion that were, as DICE put it in this post on Reddit, "quite controversial." But don't expect them to go away. The changes are actually just a small part of "a complete rework to the resupply mechanics" that the developer refers to as "Ammo 2.0," which is intended in the big picture to increase the usefulness of the Support class on the battlefield.

SEE ALL THE LATEST CARDS REVEALED FROM HEARTHSTONE'S JOURNEY TO UN'GORO SET
http://www.pcgamer.com/watch-new-cards-being-revealed-from-hearthstones-journey-to-ungoro-set/
Senior game designer Peter Whalen and Sean "Day9" Plott are currently revealing 11 new cards from Hearthstone's forthcoming Journey to Un'Goro expansion, which is due out early April.
Update The stream is over but you can watch the VOD. My initial reaction is that the new Hunter Legendary is insane, and represents Blizzard's most brute force attempt to make the control Hunter archetype viable.

CHANGES TO REDUCE THE FREQUENCY OF OVERWATCH DRAWS ARE COMING 'VERY SOON'
http://www.pcgamer.com/changes-to-reduce-the-frequency-of-overwatch-draws-are-coming-very-soon/
Personally, I don't have a problem with draws in competitive events. Two teams clash, they put the pedal to the metal, and in the end neither is able to gain the upper hand and they both go away mad. It happens. My feeling is that it gives both sides incentive to figure out how to gain an edge the next time they meet. But plenty of other people hate them. That's why we have silly shootouts in hockey, and it's also why Overwatch game director Jeff Kaplan said changes are coming that will help reduce their frequency in the game.

BLIZZARD IS TESTING BIG CHANGES FOR OVERWATCH'S LÚCIO
http://www.pcgamer.com/overwatch-lucio-rework/
Overwatch game director Jeff Kaplan mentioned earlier this week in an impromptu Reddit AMA that Blizzard had some changes in mind for the support hero Lúcio. It turns out we'll see those changes sooner rather than later, as a new build of the Overwatch Public Test Realm just went live.

STRANGE POST-APOCALYPTIC ADVENTURE PARADIGM OUT NEXT MONTH
http://www.pcgamer.com/strange-post-apocalyptic-adventure-paradigm-out-next-month/
Paradigm is an adventure game in which you play as a mutant with a bulbous head, in a colourful, post-apocalyptic Eastern Europe. Other characters include a "genetically engineered sloth that vomits candy", and this glam-rock pug, oh god, this glam-rock pug.

>>You really have to see that pug.

DIABLO 3 PATCH 2.5.0 TO ADD CHARACTER ARMORY, BETTER CRAFTING UI
http://www.pcgamer.com/diablo-3-patch-250-to-add-character-armory-better-crafting-ui/
Blizzard has given us all a first look at Diablo 3's upcoming 2.5.0 patch, which seems like a pretty substantial update when it comes to the quality of your monster-slaying life. The biggest new inclusion is the Armory, which will reduce the need to constantly tweak your character for different situations, as it will let you store up to five complete character builds for each hero. "Swap seamlessly between set items, skills, runes, and gems with the click of a button."

MARVEL VS CAPCOM: INFINITE WILL BE "EASIER TO PICK UP AND PLAY," CAPCOM EXEC SAYS

http://www.pcgamer.com/kova-is-a-super-stylish-sci-fi-metroidvania-crowdfunding-next-week/
Set in a "distant, technologically advanced future" where humankind has colonised planets across far-off galaxies, Kova is a metroidvania-style RPG that looks gorgeous. It's on Greenlight right now and is running a crowdfunding campaign next week.

UP TO 75 PERCENT OFF HITMAN, RISE OF THE TOMB RAIDER, LIFE IS STRANGE IN SQUARE ENIX SALE
http://www.pcgamer.com/up-to-75-percent-off-hitman-rise-of-the-tomb-raider-life-is-strange-in-square-enix-sale/
It's the week before payday, which means now isn't necessarily the best time to be splashing out on videogames. But if you're yet to try Life is Strange, Hitman, Rise of the Tomb Raider, and/or Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, now might be the best time to crack open your wallet.
That's because publisher Square Enix is hosting a sale across its EU and Australia stores from now through Monday 27, March which sees the above hits with varying discounts on PC.

>>There's also a "Spring Surprise Box" that contains Just Cause 3 and another 3 "Mysterious" games for £9.99/11.99€ (don't know the equivalent in AUD)

THE EVIL WITHIN 2 JOB LISTING SUGGESTS HORROR SEQUEL IS IN DEVELOPMENT
http://www.pcgamer.com/the-evil-within-2-job-listing-suggests-horror-sequel-is-in-development/
During last year's QuakeCon, Bethesda vice president Pete Hines sparked rumours about a potential follow-up to Shinji Mikami's 2014 survival horror game The Evil Within when he suggested the original sold enough to merit a sequel. It seems The Evil Within 2 is now, in fact, being made.

BATTLEFIELD 1 EASTER EGG RECREATES THE FLOATING HOUSE FROM UP
http://www.pcgamer.com/battlefield-1-easter-egg-recreates-the-floating-house-from-up/
A new Battlefield 1 Easter egg, this one introduced as part of the recent They Shall Not Pass expansion, treats players to the sort of sight you wouldn't normally expect from a First World War battlefield: The floating house from the Disney animated film Up.

Fullscreen? Do you really think I'm that much of a savage? That hurts, man :(

I know you use windowed fullscreen, not really fullscreen, but I really thought this could help you aswell. After all, how can a game have fullscreen problems? What monkeys have made this port?

Tiny batteries could simultaneously power and cool chips

Researchers designed a proof of concept battery that’s just 1.5mm thick and which generates 1.4 watts of power per square centimeter of surface space (or about 1 watt per square centimeter when you account for the power it takes to keep the liquid pumping).

Intel launches its first Optane SSD with 3D XPoint memory 

It’s called the Intel Optane P4800X, and it’s a solid state drive designed for enterprise applications. It’s also got an enterprise price tag: the first version to ship will be a 375GB SSD that sells for $1520.

What makes 3D XPoint interesting is that it offers read and write speeds that rival what you’d expect from DRAM memory. But unlike DRAM, you can use 3D XPoint for long-term storage, since it’s non-volatile memory.

Looks interesting to me xD

I know what I am going to try sooner rather than later

I warn you, 60 turns is not enough...

Maybe enough to show it running like shit on my laptop :|

Maybe. But it's cerftainly not enough to show the effects of the new gameplay tweaks in the long run.
