But now, more than a decade and some change later, Warframe is still kicking, breaking its own playercount records as recently as last year.The secret to that success, and the success Digital Extremes has found thus far with Soulframe, is keeping the amount of public scrutiny as high as possible, according to Digital Extremes CEO Steve Sinclair,…

As teased earlier in the week, Metro 2039 has been fully unveiled as a “harrowing” singleplayer horror-shooter that – following the roaming Metro Exodus – takes the FPS series back to the ruins of a nuclear-ravaged Moscow. Per Kyiv-based developers 4A Games, however, it will be “told from a distinctly Ukrainian perspective,” exploring the threat of autocratic tyranny with very much intentional parallels to Russia’s ongoing invasion of 4A’s home country. Set for release this Winter, Metro 2039 casts you as The Stranger, a mentally troubled (and, unlike original protagonist Artyom, fully voiced) survivor forced back down into the metro’s…

Deposits not showing up properly is one of those issues that feels random—until the pattern becomes obvious. A growing number of users are running into this when sending funds over networks like Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, and Polygon. The short version: the way some transactions are sent means the system can’t see the amount properly. The good news is it’s avoidable once understood. What Is an Internal Transaction? An internal transaction isn’t something sent directly from one wallet to another in the traditional sense. Instead, it’s triggered by a smart contract. Think of it like this: A normal transaction =…
