Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where pageviews were not calculating correctly.
  • This was not a wide-spread issue, any missing data for views is lost.
• Hearthstone deck listing now loads properly.
  • This was particularly annoying to track down the root cause of the problem.
• Guides that were previously broken now load correctly.
  • Those are some great looking Warcraft Rumble guides, link!
• RSS feeds from the old site now work again.
  • RSS clients must be able to handle redirects.
  • If your RSS client doesn't, update the url to include "realms" in the path. Example:
  • https://outof.games/hearthstone.rss -> https://outof.games/realms/hearthstone.rss
• Comment links work again.
  • The site was getting a bit confused about which type of thread it wanted to go to. 

Hi Everyone, After the BattleNet did an update this morning Hearthstone is running incredibly slow and the screen is dominated by white outlines. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Absolutely blown away by the growth this game has had - and on a Monday? These numbers just came in and it's still early Monday for the Americas and its solidly afternoon in Europe. I'd love to see the regional breakdown for the game but I have doubts that the devs will make those public.

While I imagine Blizzard is fine with people experimenting and coming up with new strategies (up to a point), the Landlubber strat is just out of hand. Landing in the Top 4 despite staying on Tier 2 for a long time goes against Blizzard's "intended" method of play, and the method by-which those players gain 50+ gold and just plow people over is not fun to deal with. I suppose that's why Landlubber is getting the boot for now.

Features

Realms

• Introducing realms, the evolution of our portal system.
• Realms are your destination for each and every video game.
• Our highlight of realms is to focus on community discussion.
  • Share links to keep the community informed.
  • Participate in regular chatter by creating text threads.

Realms are our evolution of portals and forums. Our forums were difficult to navigate and ultimately,  spread too thin so they looked more inactive than they were. We're hoping to make it easier to join in on discussions via our realms.

Activities

• We now feature articles, our latest opinions, and reviews prominently on the main page.
• Featured content appears at the very top of the home page in a carousel so we can highlight very important news.

  • This showcases our new realms system.
  • All recently updated threads in all our realms appear in this feed. 

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where create thread page didn't correctly display forms.
• Fixed an issue where the front page carousel wasn't linking to articles correctly.
• Fixed the "More game Guides button on the homepage.
• The Out of Cards logo no longer appears in our mobile header.

Known Issues

• Achievements are not firing for activities.

  • Customize your site experience and see what you want to see.
• New navigation!
  • Realms will have their own navigations we can further customize on a per-realm basis.
• Hearthstone Puzzles
  • We have a couple of things we need to fix before we bring this back - if you saw it you know what we mean :)
• Image threads in realms.
  • Image style threads already work if you use an image link as a link thread.
• Poll threads in realms.
  • A bit further down the pipeline but they're coming!

I'll admit, I was initially only interested in Palworld because of the "Pokemon with Guns" memes and I didn't really look into it past the trailer. It being on Game Pass though made me check it out and wow, what a wonderful game.

Me and a couple of friends logged in together (it is a shame the dedicated server doesn't work on Xbox/PC yet) and immediately set out on an adventure. Catching Pals feels really smooth and the animations from that look great. The building needs a bit of work but feels right at home. The map also feels really big which, I hope is right because I've only seen a small amount of it so far and from what I've seen I'm impressed. Survival so far has been on the easier side (normal server difficulty) but I'm certainly not complaining.

I spent most of the time building up our base, though I caught a dozen or so unique Pals so I did get to do some adventuring.

The game has clear inspiration from Zelda, Pokemon, and even to a degree I'd say Ark. The popups you get each time you find a new teleport beacon feel so Breath of the Wild thanks to that chime that plays and the overlay graphics definitely also feel quite Zelda inspired. 

What are your initial thoughts on Palworld? Have you had any epic adventures yet?
