BioWare’s Head of Live Service, Chad Robertson, wrote on the blog post that the infinite loading problem is not affecting all players, but absolutely some players are seeing it, especially as players go from Fort Tarsis to an expedition. Robertson said that BioWare found the problem during its internal testing of Anthem; however, the developer thought it had corrected this issue before the demo ever went out into players’ hands....
With Anthem set to offer new story content months and years after launch thanks to its live service elements, lead producer Michael Gamble briefly mentioned how he’d like to see future titles from BioWare, namely Dragon Age and Mass Effect, utilize this kind of storytelling, rather than the old ways of telling small bits of story through expansion packs. Unfortunately, this comment has been met with trepidation as some outlets and members of the community have begun to assume that BioWare is positioning its future games to mirror what Anthem is doing, or becoming online only experiences....
But Davis was never going to budge. Even Dr. Stephen Strange couldn’t have offered an alternate future in which the 26-year-old rescinded his trade demand. So here we are, just one week before the draft with one of the NBA’s top players still waiting to land on a new team. After canvassing the league, it appears Griffin has narrowed the field of suitors with a clear favorite emerging for Davis’ services....

About 40 to 60 demonstrators gathered at the stadium holding signs promoting their anti-vaccine and anti-mask beliefs and shouting at drivers who were in line for their vaccination appointments.

Sports Minister E.P. Chet Greene has said they had got “verbal information” that the tour would go ahead. Officials at the island’s premier cricket venue, the Vivian Richards Stadium, had started putting things in place, reports CMC. “We are waiting for the official communique but the verbal information is yes, the Test series is happening,” Greene told the Observer newspaper. “But even at the level of preparation at the stadium we have already started the work because we don’t want to get the announcement and then we find ourselves short of time....
What’s becoming crystal clear to our citizens and representatives alike is that these conglomerates are primarily growing thanks to unfair, predatory behavior—and not superior execution. Because they determine how information is disseminated, companies like Google and Facebook now have almost limitless control over the population. Google alone controls over 85 percent of the digital advertising market, while Facebook has a similar stranglehold over social media. This ability to regulate the spread of information and messaging is unlike any in history, yet these companies continue to amass even more power....
The Steelers wide receiver has done everything in his power to earn a raise, but with two years remaining on his contract, it is an uphill battle for him to receive that raise. STEELE: Ranking NFL’s top 10 wide receivers How did Brown end up here? In 2012, the Steelers were embroiled in a contract dispute with Mike Wallace, who was considered their top target at the time, that seemed to have no hope of being resolved....
Brown was booted from Pittsburgh, Oakland and New England in a single year as a result of conduct detrimental to his teams and serious off-field allegations. That didn’t stop him from being a hot commodity this week in a whirlwind of negotiations that has reportedly culminated in him signing with the Buccaneers. The Buccaneers convinced him to visit Florida on Friday after the Seahawks showed interest earlier this week. They’ve now agreed to the framework of a deal that would pair him with Tom Brady....
According to Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk, the NFL has reversed its ruling to allow the Raiders wide receiver to wear the specific model of Schutt helmet he loves as long as he could find one less than 10 years old. Florio reported that Brown’s Schutt AiR Advantage helmet made in 2014 required additional testing for use by the National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment (NOCSAE), though the league informed him the helmet did not pass the test....
Blinken stressed the importance of the U.S.-Philippines Mutual Defense Treaty and “its clear application to armed attacks against the Philippine armed forces, public vessels, or aircraft in the Pacific, which includes the South China Sea,” according to a State Department read-out of a phone call between the two released on Wednesday. He told Philippine foreign secretary Teodoro Locsin Jr. that the U.S. rejects China’s claims in the contested South China Sea “to the extent they exceed the maritime zones that China is permitted to claim under international law,” the State Department said....
According to the report, the player, who was on a red-eye flight from Los Angeles to Newark, N.J., in February, was approached by a woman in his aisle who ripped off his protective mask and grabbed the man’s penis.

The flight attendants eventually moved the woman, described as a middle-aged Caucasian, after the fourth complaint from the player....

The 31-year-old wide receiver skipped practice because he continues to be unhappy about his ongoing dispute with the NFL over his helmet, Oakland general manager Mike Mayock revealed when he met with reporters. “Here’s the bottom line,” Mayock said. “He’s upset about the helmet issue. We have supported that, we appreciate that. At this point, we’ve pretty much exhausted all avenues of relief. So, from our perspective it’s time for him to be all in or all out....
