Сроки взлома DOOM: The Dark Ages — когда игра появится на торрентах

DOOM: The Dark Ages, a prequel to DOOM (2016) and DOOM Eternal, is set to release on May 15. In Russia, the game will not be available for official purchase, with prices ranging from 6,000 to 10,000 rubles, leading some to consider waiting for pirated versions. The game uses Denuvo DRM, complicating hacking efforts. Historical data shows that hacking timelines for Denuvo-protected games vary, making it difficult to predict when DOOM: The Dark Ages will appear on torrent sites. Factors influencing hacking speed include the game's popularity, the complexity of Denuvo, technical features of the game, hacker activity, and potential updates. Three scenarios for when the game might be hacked are: optimistic (7–14 days post-release), realistic (1-3 months), and pessimistic (6–12 months). The realistic scenario is deemed most likely due to the game's popularity.

Скачать The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered торрент бесплатно на ПК

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion has been remastered using Unreal Engine 5, enhancing visuals significantly, particularly in the Imperial City and Bruma. The game requires nearly 120 GB of storage space. Performance issues occur on an NVIDIA 4060, with frame rates dropping in large areas. Combat mechanics have improved, but auto-leveling enemies can be frustrating. The Dark Brotherhood and Mages Guild quests remain engaging, and the new soundtrack by Soul is well-received. However, the game has persistent bugs, including NPCs getting stuck, erratic guard dialogue, and some unplayable quests. The user interface is cumbersome, and the absence of new mechanics makes it feel more like a polished version than a remake. Crashes to the desktop are common, affecting immersion. There is also a desire for a remaster of Morrowind and a lack of Russian localization.

MySQL at 30: Still important but no longer king

MySQL was created by Swedish developer Michael “Monty” Widenius in 1995 and became fully open-sourced under the GPL license by 2000. It emerged as a key component of the LAMP stack, offering a free and easily installable database solution that appealed to web developers, particularly during the 2000s when many startups adopted it. Major platforms like Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, and Flickr utilized MySQL for managing user data and content. Initially, MySQL had limitations, such as lacking full SQL compliance and robust transaction support, but its speed and simplicity made it accessible for developers. By the mid-2000s, MySQL introduced the InnoDB storage engine, enhancing its capabilities and solidifying its popularity. Projections for 2025 indicate that MySQL will remain the most widely deployed database globally, with numerous applications still using it today.
