Battlefield 5 Undoes TTK Changes Following Fan Feedback
DICE has announced that the changes made to Battlefield 5’s Time to Kill (TTK) values will soon be undone following negative fan feedback.
Announced by DICE on the Battlefield 5 Reddit, TTK will be reverting back to launch values starting tomorrow, December 18 at 4am PT. DICE made the changes so it would be easier for new players to jump in to BF5, though experienced players quickly made their grievances known.
At launch, many fans felt that TTK and Time to Death (TTD) was far too quick, though the recently implemented changes went in the opposite direction, causing many players to feel like enemies were “bullet sponges” and took far too long to kill. Many complained of overall balancing issues caused by the changes.
Spider-Man PS4 Gets His Own Marvel Comic
Marvel’s Spider-Man for the PlayStation 4 is getting its own Marvel Comic, due out March 2019.
Marvel’s Spider-Man: City at War #1 looks to follow the plot of the game, taking place eight years after Spider-Man gains his powers. It centers on Peter Parker putting the crime kingpin Wilson Fisk in prison and dealing with the repercussions of this action, like Mister Negative rising to fill that vacuum of power.

City at War will also include new story moments not seen in the game, as well as bonus behind-the-scenes content. It will be the first of six issues, and the first in a series of new stories from what Marvel is calling its “Gamerverse."

Street Fighter 5 Adds New Fighter: Kage
Street Fighter 5: Arcade Edition is getting a new character in the form of Kage, a dark force tied to the sinister aspects of Ryu’s soul.
Announced by Capcom, Kage is Ryu’s Satsui no Hado ("surge of murderous intent") and only desires to survive, destroy and conquer. For reference, Akuma gave into his Satsui no Hado, though Ryu is constantly struggling to keep his at bay. If Ryu had kept his Satsui within him, he would have turned into Evil Ryu. However, this one became sentient and became Kage (“shadow") and lives to prove that Ryu is nothing without him. To do so, it seeks to challenge Akuma and Sagat, two of Ryu’s greatest rivals.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse Post Credits Scene Explained
After Miles Morales and his new spider-friends saved the day and credits rolled for Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, we’re given a bonus scene featuring a fan-favorite Spider character that really got our spider-senses tingling. We’ve got a full breakdown on who this character is and what his presence could mean for the sequel.
Needless to say, but full spoilers ahead!
The surprise character in the end credits scene is none other than Spider-Man 2099, the Spider-Man of the future. The man under the mask is Miguel O’Hara, voiced by Oscar Isaac, who you may know better as Poe Dameron from Star Wars. The Latino Isaac is a fitting casting choice given that Miguel is Marvel’s first-ever Latino spider-character.

Ranking All the Spider-Man Movies
Back in 2002, Stan Lee and Steve Ditko’s famed wall-crawler made a cinematic splash with Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man, a huge box office success that spawned one of the biggest movie franchises of the decade and was the final boost we needed for the revitalization of superhero movies that began with Blade and X-Men.
Now 16 years and eight movies later, your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man is still going strong. Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is in theaters this month, Spider-Man: Far From Home is on the way this July, and, of course, a little movie called Avengers 4 is also coming soon.
However, not all of Spidey’s cinematic adventures have been created equal, so we figured it was time to once again rank all the films thus far... (And just a note: Yes, we're including the Avengers movies here since they are a pretty important part of the MCU version of Spider-Man's story so far.)
