As a MMORPG with a well-developed social system, FFXIV naturally provides you with a variety of interesting emotes and actions in the game, allowing you to interact with your game friends through them, so that you can have a chance to relax after intense battles.
Recently, a new emote was launched in the game, called Pose of the Unbound, but it is more like an action than an emote, and if you often watch animation and comics, you will find that the design inspiration of this emote should come from a classic comic: Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure.
Based on this, we will speculate why the game chose Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure as the emote design idea, and also introduce you how to get this emote in FFXIV.
This is a comic work that began in 1987 and was serialized by cartoonist Hirohiko Araki in the Japanese comic magazine Weekly Shonen Jump. It was transferred to the monthly manga magazine Ultra Jump in 2005 and has been serialized to this day. Fans also refer to it as “Jojo”.
The entire plot of the comic can be divided into 9 parts, each with a new protagonist, but the common point of these protagonists is that they all have the nickname “Jojo”. So far, 6 of the 9 parts have been animated, and 1 has a live-action movie.
Because of its unique art style, frequent references to Western pop music and fashion trends, Jojo has become one of the best-selling, most iconic and influential comic series in history. Although it has only become popular outside of Japan in recent years, it has to be admitted that it has quickly become a classic work in the hearts of anime fans around the world.
Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure became popular in Europe and the United States mainly because the subtle weird elements in the comics brought many popular emoticons, the most famous of which is “Jojo Pose”, one of which is to put your hands in front of your face-which is also the main inspiration for Final Fantasy 14’s new emote Pose of the Unbound, and the official website of the game has also confirmed this.
At present, Final Fantasy 14 is quite popular among MMORPG players in different regions of the world, so if it wants to incorporate some interesting online memes into the game to make you laugh, the inspiration of the memes should be widely known and related to other games or virtual works such as animation, to ensure that most players can understand it.
Obviously, the popularity of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure and the fun of “Jojo pose” can fully meet the above requirements, and maybe this is just the first step for FFXIV-if the new emote Pose of the Unbound is well received, perhaps in the future the game will also plan to carry out more formal and larger-scale crossover events with Jojo.
The first thing you need to know is that this emote was added to Final Fantasy 14 in the patch 7.16 update. The update highlights the final questline in Dawntrail character quest series, but to access it, you’ll first need to complete Dawntrail’s main scenario quest and five character questlines, which are:
Once you’ve made sure you’ve earned the qualifications to start the quest, head to Xbalyav Ty’e in Tuliyollal (coordinates X:12.4, Y:14.7) and find the various NPCs for the corresponding questline to start the quest - in fact, this is the same place you previously visited in the restaurant downstairs where you meet Wuk Lamat during the main story quest of Dawntrail.
While you should be rewarded with FF14 Gil for completing the above quest, it’s not enough to get the new emote - you’ll also need to complete the level 100 Picking Up the Torch quest, which you can start by finding Rral Majun, also in Tuliyollal, standing near the bar. You’ll then have a conversation with her and a nearby Br’uk Evu, which will lead you to learn that Apyaahi, the founder of Passage of the Unbound, is looking for a new leader for her dubious organization.
Your job from then on is to pose as one of Apyaahi’s potential candidates and learn her true intentions in order to complete another level 100 quest, Imposing Views, which will reward you with a gift box that you can open to receive Pose of the Unbound emote.
In addition to the quests related to the new emote, it’s also recommended that you try to complete the rest of the final character questline, as this will earn you “Bright Bustle” Orchestrion Roll and “Sweet Justice” title.
After the above introduction, I believe that you have not only mastered the method of obtaining new emotes in FF14 but also become more interested in Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure. In fact, it is totally worth your appreciation. Thank you for reading.
S-Game recently released a demo video about the boss battle, which aroused the strong interest of all players. Below I will share some information about Phantom Blade Zero with you based on this video.
The conventional offensive means of the game are the light attack and heavy attack of the main weapon. Taking PlayStation controller as an example, the corresponding buttons for light and heavy attacks are the square button and the triangle button. Players can use the combination of light and heavy attacks to perform combos, cause damage, and reduce the enemy’s health.
There are two main defensive means in the game:
L1 defense is divided into continuous defense and perfect defense. Press and hold the L1 button. The character will take a defensive posture and defend against the enemy’s attack at the cost of consuming Sha-Chi. If the protagonist’s Sha-Chi is exhausted, there will be a big stiffness, and he will be unable to move for a short time, allowing the enemy to attack.
In contrast, pressing L1 at the moment before the enemy attacks can achieve perfect defense, which will not only not consume your own Sha-Chi, but will reduce the enemy’s Sha-Chi. If the timing is not accurate and perfect defense is not achieved, a certain amount of Sha-Chi will be consumed. Perfection can be judged by the orange sparks of the weapon collision during defense. If the enemy’s Sha-Chi is exhausted, of course, it will enter a big stiffness, and this is the best time for the protagonist to attack.
The slide dodge of the R1 button is a relatively safe defense method in the game. It does not consume any resources and can handle almost all attacks of the enemy in the game.
Among the many enemy attack methods, there are two special attacks that require extra care, namely red light attack and blue light attack.
It is not difficult to see that the core combat system of the game is centered around Sha-Chi.
Different from the defensive system in Sekiro, Sha-Chi is both a defensive resource and an offensive resource. The player’s Sha-Chi can be used for defense or to launch a heavy attack with the triangle button to perform a combo. The enemy can also defend your combo, but it will reduce the enemy’s Sha-Chi.
In summary, the most basic combat strategy of the game is to use L1 to defend perfectly and use the triangle button to perform a heavy attack at the right time, while guarding against the enemy’s undefended red light attack and using R1 to resolve it. For players with a basic understanding of action games, the basic combat mode can be mastered in about ten minutes.
This main weapon is actually the two weapons held by the protagonist in both hands. The short knife in the left hand is Crimson Viper, which is mainly flexible and maneuverable, mainly used in light attacks; the long sword in the right hand is White Serpent, which has large and long attack movements and is mainly used in heavy attacks.
The biggest feature of White Serpent & Crimson Viper is flexibility and maneuverability, and it can execute enemies from a distance.
In the first stage of the boss battle, the player needs to fight seven enemies at the same time. Obviously, the chief is our main target.
If you only attack the chief, you will find that when his health drops to a certain value, a companion will use silk thread to replenish his health. At this moment, you realize that you also need to reduce the number of enemies on the battlefield as soon as possible, and don’t give the chief a chance to recover.
The snake-shaped long sword White Serpent is swung wide, and the action often rotates in a circle, which is very suitable for dealing with multiple enemies. More importantly, the short knife Crimson Viper can trigger the execution action at a distance without getting close to the body, which is very useful for quickly clearing the field.
This weapon’s combo often has a small stiffness when closing the move, and it can stop at any time. When attacking, you can immediately press the perfect defense when you close your hand, and the attack and defense switch is extremely fast.
The feel of Soft Snake Sword is completely different from that of White Serpent & Crimson Viper. When you first use it, it is just like it looks, soft and weak, with low damage and poor ability to reduce Sha-Chi.
The hidden mechanism of Soft Snake Sword is: after holding down L1 to defend, press the triangle button to initiate a new parry action. If you have resources (the points below the weapon icon), consuming one grid of energy to parry the enemy’s blue light attack perfectly can almost instantly clear the enemy’s Sha-Chi value and derive a new combo move.
This demonstration is one-to-many. In action games, one-to-many is not a well-designed battle scene, or it is not compatible. Friends who often play action games must have a deep understanding: the one-to-many in Ninja Gaiden is very fun, but the one-to-one boss battle is not so refreshing; the one-to-one duel in Sekiro is very exciting, but it is easy to be killed by attacks from all sides when it is one-to-many. One-to-one and one-to-many are not easy to balance.
Just like in action movies, if the villains rush forward, two fists cannot beat four hands. Even if the protagonist has a lot of skills, he will probably lose. If the villains stand aside and watch, it is too fake, and anyone can see that it is acting.
The soldiers can neither rush in all at once and beat the protagonist so that he can’t fight back, nor can they just stand by and watch indifferently. These seven brothers have provided a new solution.
When there are many people on the scene, the seven will frequently set up formations and attack together. This not only resets the battlefield situation and prevents the player from being surrounded for a long time, but also gives the player a good time to cause damage, because this move is easy to resolve and can immediately make a set of heavy damage.
When there are not many people on the scene, his companions will take the initiative to adjust their position, surround the protagonist, and attack in turn. This method seems to surround the player, but because the attack and defense speed of the game is very fast, the enemy’s movement time is completely enough for the player to deal with the enemy in front of him, which actually gives the player time to defeat them one by one.
At the end of the demonstration video, the protagonist uses a giant axe to end the chief. It should be noted here that when this giant axe is activated, the protagonist is not invincible and will stop moving when hurt. The video demonstrator is obviously very familiar with this move, so he confidently uses this move to end the battle.
Phantom Blade Zero will announce its release date this year, and you must be impatient! Let us wait for new news about this game together.

You can customize your weapons with many accessories in Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6, such as Muzzle, Barrel, Rear Grip, etc., which weapon fans will probably be very keen to study. If matched properly, your weapon can make you more powerful in battle.
These accessories also include Ammo Mods. You can get Ammo Mods by trading with Arsenal Machines on BO6 Zombies Map. Ammo Mods can bring unique additional effects to your bullets, such as additional electric shock or freezing damage. This will greatly enhance the power of the gun.
As of the latest update, there are 6 Ammo Mods for players to choose from in CoD Black Ops 6. They all have their own advantages and different uses in different scenarios. So, which Ammo Mod is the most worth getting? Here is a ranking of these six Mods for your reference.
After using Brain Rot, your bullets will have poisonous damage and there is a chance to turn enemies into your right-hand man.
This Ammo Mod is undoubtedly very powerful. If you use Brain Rot to turn a tough enemy into your ally, it will stop attacking you and attack other zombies instead. The attack process will last for 10 seconds. After the time is up, the converted zombie will explode and take away other zombies around. In this way, your confrontation pressure will be greatly reduced.
It is worth mentioning that the enemies taken away by the zombies when they explode will be counted as the player’s headshot kills, which will help you quickly win game points. To exaggerate a little, you may be fighting against zombies in the last second, and the next second it seems to be in COD BO6 Bot Lobbies-it becomes so easy to repel enemies with powerful allies.
Each Ammo Mods in BO6 can be equipped with a Major Augment and a Minor Augment, respectively. The available Augments for Brain Rot are as follows.
You can unlock Brain Rot at level 27.
This Ammo Mod looks exaggerated, and its effects are quite imaginative. Shooting bullets with Shadow Rift has a chance to create a black hole, which can suck up nearby enemies and then drop them from a high altitude to their death.
The available Augments for Shadow Rift are as follows.
You can unlock Shadow Rift at level 44.
Cryo Freeze turns your bullets into a popsicle maker - your bullets have a chance to freeze zombies, causing freezing damage to them and also slowing them down. This slowing effect is important, as freezing zombies allow you to attack them more quickly.
In addition, Cryo Freeze is very effective against Hellhounds, dealing 1.5x more damage to them.
The available Augments for Cryo Freeze are as follows.
You can unlock Cryo Freeze at level 14.
Bullets fired with Dead Wire will have a strong current that causes electric damage. Your bullets will have a chance to create an electric damage field that will stun enemies. This is equivalent to a small control effect that you can slow down zombies.
Dead Wire may not be special when used for attacking, but in Terminus, you need to use Dead Wire to make Beamsmasher, which is a must-have item for completing Terminus’ main quest.
The available Augments that Dead Wire can choose are as follows.
There is no level requirement to unlock Dead Wire, and it is the first Ammo Mod you can use in the game.
Unlike other Ammo Mods that focus on dealing damage to enemies, Light Mend is more inclined to healing effects. Bullets using Light Mend will have a chance to convert the enemy’s health into a healing glyph and apply it to your teammates.
In a team that does not need healing so much, Light Mend may not be as effective as other Ammo Mods that simply increase damage, but you need to prioritize it in some special situations. For example, when challenging enemies with strong agility and low health such as Doppelgahsts, the healing effect of Light Mend will increase the team’s tolerance rate and provide you with the opportunity to consume the enemy.
The available Augments for Light Mend are as follows.
Participate in Merry Mayhem event to unlock Light Mend.
This is an Ammo Mod that purely enhances the attack effect. Napalm Burst will add a burning effect to your bullets. Enemies hit by bullets with Napalm Burst will be ignited, and then the burning will last for a period, and will continue to cause damage to the enemy during this period.
The available Augments for Napalm Burst are as follows.
You can unlock Napalm Burst when you reach level 6.
These six Ammo Mods in Black Ops 6 have different effects. Overall, Brain Rot, which can turn enemies into allies, is undoubtedly the most powerful one. However, in different situations, other Ammo Mods may work better.
In actual operation, choosing the appropriate Ammo Mod according to your specific needs and matching different Augments can help you get twice the result with half the effort in battle.
The return of the zombie mode is a carnival for zombie lovers. The festival is approaching, and zombies also want to celebrate the festive. Citadelle Des Morts not only brings new zombies and maps to Black Ops 6 Zombies but also very eye-catching magic swords and magic spells.
However, it is not easy to get all these rewards. Players need enough patience and concentration. If you want to understand these magic weapons and magic spells and use them to fight zombies, then the following information may be helpful to you.
If you like to unlock various rewards and event achievements, you can choose COD BO6 Bot Lobbies to experience various guns and other weapons without pressure.
(Tips: Each magic incantations needs a corresponding magic sword to unlock.)
There are four elemental swords in Citadelle Des Morts, each of which has a powerful melee ability and can also block incoming bullets. They are actually all variants of a sword called “Bastard Sword”. You need to get it first to unlock the magic sword.
The first step is to unlock Pack-a-Punch machine. And after entering round 10, a special zombie with a knight’s helmet will appear. Kill it to get a drop called “Stamp”.
In Dining Hall, in the northeast corner of the first floor of the castle, you can find Vulture Aid Perk Machine. There are four knights in this room. You can use Stamp on them, and they will start moving and give you their Bastard Sword. Each knight can only use Stamp once, but special zombies with helmets will appear later, and you can get four Bastard Swords.
Each knight represents an elemental sword. Void Sword is to the northeast, Light Sword is to the northwest, Lightning Sword is to the southeast, and Fire Sword is to the southeast.
You can try out your new weapon in CoD: Black Ops 6 Bot Lobbies. Although not an elemental weapon, Bastard Sword has unique attack movements and decent power.
After you unlock Pack-a-Punch machine, go to the small area behind Quick Revive Perk Machine in a cell with a wooden door and talk to Krafft. He will cast a spell, which will allow you to start the spell quest.
After you get Raven Rider’s Bastard Sword, come to the armor that appeared after you unlocked Pack-a-Punch. Go through the illusion wall here, and behind it is Alchemical Lab. You need to find one of the five Antiquities.
They will not appear at the same time, but their locations are fixed:
After you get an Antiquitie, go to Tavern Cellar basement northeast of the Town Square spawn point. Place an Antiquitie in the circle on the basement wall. Wait for the symbol in the circle to light up, then place your Bastard Sword in the circle.
You need to know which symbols correspond to your Antiquitie. The following combinations may be the answer.
After you do it correctly, a crack will appear on the floor and three orbs will appear in the circle. Guide all the orbs into the cracks. After three times, you will get Balmung: The Raven’s Dark Sword. (Be careful not to get too close to these balls or they will explode.)
At the south end of Pack-a-Punch room, there is a Fast Travel Cave Slide. On the slide, look to the right when you get close to the end and you will see a crow. Shoot it.
Keep aiming and shooting at it after it flies out until it drops Raven’s Talon on the ground. With Raven’s Talon, head to the basement east of Oubliette Room and head to the east wall. You will see a golden circle appear on the ground.
After interacting with the golden circle, keep killing zombies around. Eventually, a treasure chest will rise from the ground. Hit it with Bastard Sword to get Dark Incantation.
When you hold The Lion Knight’s Bastard Sword, four glowing parasites will appear in front of you. Kill them and your sword will begin to glow.
Next, head to Village Ascent area. On the ramp southwest of Speed Cola Perk machine, there is a door with a lion’s head on it. Hit this door with your glowing sword 4 times and 4 symbols will appear on the door. Interact with it to enter the room.
Place your sword on the pedestal in the room and shoot the symbols in the air in the order they appear on the pedestal. If you succeed, you will see all the light return to the sword, which means you have unlocked Solais: The Lion’s Light Sword.
Even if you fail here, you can always try again. Don’t worry.
You need to shoot the gems on the wall in Dining Hall and Alchemical Lab in the correct order.
Here’s the order to shoot the gems:
After all gems have been properly activated, a light will lead you to a bust on the table in the northwest corner of Alchemical Lab.
You can find Paladin’s Brooch Ritual Item there.
Find the lion graffiti in the southeast corner of the dining hall and place Paladin’s Brooch Ritual in the circle to fight the zombies. A treasure chest will then rise out of the circle. Hit it with your Solais: The Lion’s Light Sword to obtain the Light Incantation.
The key to unlocking this sword is to obtain three Lightning Rods. Here are their locations:
Once you have collected all Lightning Rods, go outside the room to the right of the Hillside Rampart. There is a machine over there. Place three Lightning Rods in the machine and a storm will engulf the area.
Kill zombies in the storm with your sword. Lightning will hit your sword. Lightning Rods while your sword is glowing to charge them. After three times, you can place your sword in the machine and evolve it into Durendal: The Stag’s Lightning Sword.
Just north of the east gate of Deadshot Daquiri in Nature Path area, you can find an Otto’s Horseshoe. Shoot it and take the Otto’s Horseshoe.
Place the Horseshoe in the cannon and it will point its mouth towards the Town Square.
In the area above Nature Path and Village Ascent, you can find a storm cloud. Under the cloud is Pegasus’ Horseshoe.
Go to the southeast wall of Town Square to find the golden magic circle and place your Horseshoe inside it. Continue fighting zombies until your treasure chest appears.
With the Dragon Knight’s Bastard Sword, go to the entrance hall and interact with the dragon statue at the top of the stairs to place the sword on the altar. Look for three braziers on the map. You need to bring flames back to the altar. Here are their locations:
When you are done, your sword will become Caliburn: The Dragon’s Fire Sword.
There are three pyres in the castle’s Courtyard. Find them and light them with flame weapons and fight the surrounding zombies. Here are the locations of pyres:
After lighting all three pyres, a Doppleghast will appear. Kill it and it will drop a Ritual. With the Ritual, head to Upper Town and the top of the staircase gate. You will find Golden Circle. Kill the zombies around Golden Circle until a golden chest rises from it.
Hit the treasure chest with your Caliburn: The Dragon’s Fire Sword to unlock Fire Incantation.
The above is the introduction of the elemental weapons and incantations that players are most concerned about in the new mode of Black Ops 6 Zombies. Cod Black Ops 6 has also updated many new rewards. Including new accessories and skills. You can choose BO6 Bot Lobbies to quickly unlock achievements, get experience, and become a mature player!
Large-scale MMORPGs usually have a relatively grand world view setting, so there will be many regions in the game, and the environmental presentation between them is also different. Take New World Aeternum as an example. Besides virtual elements, it also refers to various settings in the real world to design various realistic and interesting game scenes.
For example, the ruins of Roman Empire, the buildings and biomes inspired by Japan, Rome and medieval Europe, and the jungles and bustling ports of Caribbean. Of course, besides this, the design of these wild environments or buildings in New World Aeternum also incorporates the fantasy colors given by the designers.
And if you want to get New World Aeternum Coins that can be dropped in the game, you need to complete various battles. If the game scene settings are interesting and have a certain cultural color, your combat experience will surely be taken to a higher level.
Based on this, we will introduce you to some information related to game scenes and environmental design so that you can have a more immersive experience when playing New World Aeternum.
In fact, you will find that the environmental themes and biomes in Aeternum are largely influenced by real-world cultures and regions. While this provides a narrative basis for the game’s story, as a fantasy game, it is more important to create a sensory experience for you through unique scene presentation than historical accuracy.
In addition, the game will provide you with a consistency in the environmental art style, reinterpreting and transforming inspiration to adapt you to the aesthetics of Aeternum. You can feel the art style of the real world, the mysterious color of the legend, and the game’s own unique fusion style.
For example, the theme of Legion is inspired by Roman Empire, especially its architecture in the Middle East, such as the temples of Baalbek and Jerash. In another place in Brimstone, inspired by Egyptian architecture, the game’s design team set up prominent pyramids as visual landmarks for the entire area, so that you can always know where you are through it.
Depending on the content of each game, the elements that are suitable for integration into its scene are also different. Broadly speaking, a good game environment needs to provide you with interesting gameplay and stories through any space, or be able to provide you with a unique and meaningful experience of space.
In New World Aeternum, it depends on which area of the game world the specific environment and scene is in, and the goal or intention given to you by that specific space. The design team established an overall artistic pillar to ensure that all environmental design focuses on the right things to enhance your environmental experience, while ensuring that the game world is consistent in all areas.
In some details, the game builds an environment space for you to provide a sense of exploration and discovery, thereby reinforcing the vast supernatural world set in Aeternum. The design team strives to show you interesting craftsmanship in all non-natural assets, such as who built something and why in the legend, as well as various historical cultures and different NPC factions.
Overall, New World Aeternum presents you with bold and dramatic visual effects, while striving to build a believable and solid game world. In this way, the game space and environment can not only enrich your gameplay but also make you live in harmony with the surrounding scenes in all aspects.
In order to make you more immersed in the game, the art team needs to work closely with various legends to keep the story and environment consistent in a simple and intuitive way.
In Aeternum, you will be washed ashore at the beginning, allowing you to arrive and discover this new land. Perhaps you will think this is Paradise Lost, Atlantis, Shangri-La, and the kingdom of all myths, because you can appreciate the mystery and majesty of buildings from all over the world here.

As a player, you have your own unique cultural foundation, but for the cultures of different regions, the art team needs to conduct in-depth research to express the characteristics of legends from different cultures. For example, when creating ruins for you to explore, designers need to determine who built these ruins, what building materials and tools were used, and what the origins of the skeleton warriors guarding the ruins are.
If these problems can be solved smoothly, the game will have more gorgeous decorations and legendary secrets to hint at the former use of the ruins, and it will also give you the opportunity to discover those naturally flowing stories related to the environment as you travel in the world of New World Aeternum.
Through in-game data feedback, the design team can understand which environmental elements resonate with you and how you behave in the game, including where you consume more time and are more likely to encounter difficulties.
In fact, the player base itself is also very diverse, and the environmental elements reflected by what one group of players prefers may be very different from another group of players. Therefore, the design team’s design tools and processes have also changed a lot throughout the design process.
The overall design of the early environment actually started very broadly, because the designers had a lot of ideas about the entire game world and all the various landmarks and areas that players might go to. But as the game starts to build new areas of the world, you and other players will pay more attention to specific emotions, biomes, and cultures in the game scenes.
To do this, the team at New World Aeternum also needs to be more effective in advance to understand the types of scenes you like, and focus more time on the important and you will notice. The game tends to notice every detail, hoping to ensure that all the details of the scenes presented to you look of the highest quality. But there are some things you may not notice in the actual game, so in the end, the focus of the environmental design of New World Aeternum is still on the places you pay most attention to.
The above is the interesting information we brought to you about the environmental design of New World Aeternum. Thank you for reading.
For some time now, EA Sports FC and FIFA before it have led the football genre with few competitors. With the game regressing in some aspects and trying to squeeze as much money out of players every year, fans have expressed the desire to at least try UFL, a free-to-play football game with ‘fun’ at its core.
Since FIFA and FC are deeply rooted in the minds of fans around the world, it is difficult for UFL to occupy a place in the market. To gain market share, UFL must have a good gameplay experience that surpasses or catches up with FC 25 in many aspects. The question is, how does UFL compare to FC 25 at launch? Which football game is the better one? We will find out by analyzing several different key elements of the two games.
Gameplay is the real key. Since UFL is not a game that is released every year, but will be updated regularly, it needs to have a solid gameplay foundation. We saw eFootball struggle with this concept a few years ago, so it’s not an easy task.
Like FC 25, UFL has strengths and weaknesses. The game is a little clunky, with players taking some time to control the ball and turn, and shooting animations not always natural, but there’s a consistency and balance to the game that EA Sports FC can’t match.
The game is also very open, with long balls and aerial shots always an option as long as you have time in the midfield. Whether this is a strength of the offense or a weakness of the defensive design, time will tell, but the fun of UFL is undeniable. If the developers can improve the overall physics, the game will be much better.
Opinions on UFL will also change over time. Gameplay in FIFA and FC games always evolves over time as patches change things and the community learns what’s too strong. The same will happen with UFL over time, and if the gameplay is going to remain impressive, it will depend a lot on how the developers manage it over the long term.
Thanks to UFL, FC 25’s gameplay is the worst ever. While there have always been some overpowered mechanics, like this year’s finesse shot playstyle+ and cut backs in FC 24, the consistency and reliability of moment-to-moment gameplay has never been worse.
Weird player interactions, misplaced passes, and goalkeeper errors pop up in nearly every game. Tackling from behind is overpowered, high-depth plays trigger automatic offside traps, and AI is downright stupid.
That last aspect is the most egregious, as players you don’t control are constantly out of position, both in attack and defense, making the game mode incredibly difficult to put together. Offensive players will run away from open goal opportunities, stay in offside positions, or ignore instructions related to their role.
While it’s hard to prove it, the constant stream of new features is overwhelming the game. Playstyles, roles, and FC IQ have all been added over the years, but gameplay has regressed. Something is wrong, and it’s up to EA Sports to fix it.
This is where UFL falls short. FC 25 was developed and distributed by a multi-billion dollar company with a history of nearly 30 years. UFL is a free-to-play game for the first time, so it’s no surprise that FC 25 looks better. However, the difference between the two is not as big as imagined.
Watching the entire pitch together, it’s hard to tell the difference between the two. Where UFL lags behind is in the overall presentation of match days, with less lively crowds, limited celebrations, and less fanfare at all times.
UFL also falls short of FIFA 25 in terms of player animations. While FIFA 25 is full of physics issues, players do move more smoothly and interact more seamlessly. For now, EA FC 25 wins in terms of graphics and presentation, but the competition is more intense than you might think.
It’s a bit unfair to analyze which game is better in terms of modes. EA Sports FC has had more time to design and launch new modes for players. However, more is not always better.
UFL is essentially the equivalent of Ultimate Team. You let players build their own team and then take that team into online competitions. There’s a weekend mode, similar to Champions in FC, and a ranked mode, similar to traditional ranking modes in shooters. Other than that, the game offers very few modes, although that’s by design.
FC 25 has career mode, Clubs, kick-off, online friendlies, and the various modes of Ultimate Team. Modes like Draft, Moments, and Squad Battles range from boring to abandoned, but there’s definitely a mode for everyone. UFL was designed with Ultimate Team competition in mind, so that’s where we should compare it. If they did branch out into other areas, we’d obviously like UFL to have a career mode, but the idea here is clearly to focus on online competitive play.
UFL is a free-to-play game, while EA FC 25 will cost $60 if you get the standard edition at launch. Also, UFL is designed to last a long time, far longer than the annual cycle of EA series.
EA Sports has started to increase the number of promo packs you can get at any one time like crazy. Often, you can find promotional packs worth hundreds of dollars in stores, but paying for them doesn’t guarantee you’ll get any players. You open the packs with the slim hope of getting something good, but you may not actually get it.
But with FC 25 Coins, players will be able to build their fantasy team with more flexibility, using this virtual currency to access not only rare cards but also exclusive content such as exclusive skills and match passes, injecting more personalization options into the game.
In contrast, UFL’s monetization is more direct. You can get packs of skins by earning CP, which can improve the attributes of the players in your team. In addition, you can use any CP to get any player in the game. Each player has a specific CP price, so as long as you have enough coins, you can spend any currency on them.
While both games have pay-to-win elements, and the money you spend is directly related to the quality of your team, FC 25 is by far the worst culprit. You can clearly know which players your hard-earned money is spent on, which makes UFL far ahead in terms of monetization, and after all, it is a free game.
UFL has two advantages, price and time, as it is a service game rather than an annual paid version. Therefore, the developers can work hard to ensure that it continues to improve over time without players having to pay $60 for those improvements. In terms of presentation and mode, FC 25 is ahead, but it has had nearly 30 years to hone its craft.
But more importantly, UFL puts the fun and consistency of the game first. Since FC 25 is the worst in the series in a long time in terms of gameplay, now is the best time to improve its gameplay as soon as possible to take advantage of its advantages.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 includes many classic modes and features, as well as some exciting fresh additions. However, despite the game’s excellent gaming experience, players may sometimes encounter some technical issues.
One common issue is Hueneme Negev error, which is usually related to your internet connection and prevents players from accessing the game properly. Imagine if you were practicing cool finishing moves to kill your opponents in Black Ops 6 Bot Lobbies, but how frustrating it would be to frequently encounter Hueneme Negev error. So, to avoid this problem, check out this guide and we will provide you with some solutions.
First, in order to solve “Networking Failed to Start” error in Black Ops 6, players need to take corresponding measures based on the specific connection type and platform used. Since a variety of factors can cause this problem, including but not limited to network configuration, hardware compatibility, or software settings, it is recommended that players who encounter such problems try the following methods.
When encountering game connection problems, the best thing to do is to check the status of the game server before confirming whether it is really a problem on your side.
Server downtime is common during periods when the development team is preparing to release new content or major updates. This is done to ensure that the new version can be deployed smoothly and provides the best gaming experience for all players.
In addition, during these critical periods, there is a possibility that the server load will be too heavy because of the large number of players trying to access game resources which will affect your normal login process.
Restarting your modem or router can refresh the device, help resolve minor connection interruptions, and ensure that network services are running smoothly. This is especially important if you are playing over a Wi-Fi connection, as Wi-Fi connections are more prone to instability than wired connections. To restart these devices, simply turn off your modem or router, wait at least 10 seconds, and then turn it back on.
If you are still experiencing connection problems after following the steps above, it is recommended that you contact your Internet Service Provider. They have a professional technical team that can help you reset the settings of your modem or router and confirm that these devices are working properly.
Another effective way to solve connection problems is to restart your console or check that its system version is up to date. Any issues with the console or an unstable connection to the Internet can significantly affect your gaming experience. Keeping your console in top working order and ensuring all software is up to date can reduce network outages because of outdated or faulty connections.
In addition, if your console is connected to the Internet through a shared Wi-Fi network, you may experience a decrease in connection stability. This is because shared networks often need to support multiple devices to access the Internet, which increases the possibility of network congestion.
As a common wireless Internet access method, although Wi-Fi provides convenience, its stability is often affected when the network is congested or multiple devices are used at the same time. To improve this situation, users can consider using an Ethernet connection, which provides a more stable and higher priority network experience.
If you are already in an Ethernet environment and still encounter problems, you can try to temporarily switch back to Wi-Fi to rule out whether it is a problem with the wired connection itself.
In addition, you can also consider switching to a different network to determine whether the problem is with your primary network. If conditions permit, using the hotspot function of a mobile device is also a quick way to test.

If the above methods don’t work, another method you can try is to use a VPN service to change your IP address and bypass possible regional restrictions or connection issues. You can keep VPN on throughout the game, or you can choose to disable VPN after successfully logging in to reduce unnecessary delays.
To achieve this, you first need to download a VPN service. When choosing a VPN server, it is best to choose a server that differs from your usual connection route to avoid potential restrictions or interference. However, to avoid delays caused by connecting to a server that is too far away, it is recommended to choose a server that is closer to your location.
Teredo Protocol on Windows PC may cause connection issues, which affects your ability to access games. You can disable Teredo by following these steps: First, boot Windows and log in to your profile. Then press Ctrl + Shift + Enter to open Command Prompt with administrator privileges.
And in Command Prompt window, enter the following command - netsh interface teredo set state disabled - and then press Enter. Once executed, enter the command - netsh interface teredo show state - to see the type status displayed as disabled.
If you want to restore the default settings later, just open the command prompt again with administrator privileges, type netsh interface teredo set state default and press Enter.
By following the above steps, most players should be able to resolve “Networking Failed to Start” error encountered in COD BO6.
