4 ways to play Battlefield 1 earlier

Battlefield 1 is one of the most anticipated games of the next fall. Many players would love to play the game as early as possible. Here are 4 ways how to do it.

1. EA Play events in LA and London. On June 12 in Los Angeles and London, Dice will reveal the first gameplay footage and let attendees try the game for themselves.

2. Open Beta ( available earlier if you sign-up as Battlefield Insider ). During the open beta, which will happen somewhere this summer, everybody will have a chance to play a few maps and try a few weapons for free, following Dice’s good tradition to release open beta, prior to game’s release.

3. Ea and Origin access. Subscribers of “access” services will have a chance to play full game for 10 hours, few days prior to game’s release.

4. Pre-order the Early Enlister Deluxe Edition, you’ll be able to start playing on October 18, three days before the release date.

History behind “qwerty” keyboard. Why are we still using it?

“QWERTY” keyboard layout is currently most used in modern keyboard. It’s history starts in 1873 when Sholes and Glidden typewriter was introduced by American inventor Christopher Latham Sholes. His invention was the first commercially successful typewriter. “QWERTY” layout was introduced to resolve the problem which existed at the time. Other machines could be easily damaged by quick typing. “QWERTY” keyboard resolved this problem and the layout became popular. So why we still use these now? We are used to them. The “qwerty” layout is not very comfortable to type on, but it’s not that bad. Every one of us is at least little bit familiar with the “qwerty” layout. Learning to type on a different layout, would be similar to learning new language.

Xbox one is “officially” dead.

Microsoft is merging Xbox and Windows 10. They said that Xbox exclusives will, in close future come to PC and that there will be a possibility to upgrade xbox’s hardware and install a normal windows on it. So far it’s not known how is it going to work, but it definitely doesn’t sound good for those, who’ve gotten the Xbox, because of exclusives.

Xbox one is “unofficially” dead.

New “exclusives” for xbox one including Quantum Break, Killer Instinct Season 3, Gears of War Ultimate Edition and Gears of War 4, are confirmed to be released on both Xbox one and PC. I would also like to remind you that cross-platform games run better on xbox’s nemesis PS4. Console from Sony is pretty much dominating a console market, have better performance and more exclusives now and coming soon. Xbox on the other hand doesn’t seem to have anything to be thrown at the table, so it’s almost safe to declare that Xbox almost died.

We don’t need 3.5 mm audio jack

Rumours say, the next iPhone won’t have an audio jack. Instead, we will have plug in headphones directly into lightning port. And if you don’t have the correct headphones, you will have to buy the adapter.

Totally worth it!

High-tech future.

How I see our future. You come home after a day of work, you have to charge: your phone ,your tablet, your laptop, your watches, your glasses, your car, your shoes, etc. Don’t forget to update and synchronise all that stuff. You want to watch some tv, but you forgot to charge the remote. You want to get some coffee, but the wifi is down and the coffee machine needs internet, because it’s made by Apple and “ It can’t just function without internet ”. Finally you want to get a shower, you step in, you turn on the water it’s super hot, even if you have set it to cold. They will fix, patch it, update it. Suddenly your garage door opens and your car drives itself away, yeah you needed to get an antivirus.
