Call of Duty: WWII was a breath of fresh air after the weirdness what was Infinite Warfare. The return to historical battles was a welcome change after a (thankfully) brief trip to space. For 2018, the series is back in the hands of Treyarch, which m…
Google Translate has supported offline translations for a while now, making it ideal for use when you’re traveling overseas and need a translation app but don’t have access to the internet. However the offline version doesn’t really compare to the online version, but Google is changing that.
The company has announced that they are upgrading its offline Google Translate app by bringing neural machine translation onto your device. This means that if you don’t have an internet connection, not to worry as the use of NMT on your device will still allow for accurate and contextually accurate translations.
According to Google who talked about the benefits of the NMT system, “The neural system translates whole sentences at a time, rather than piece by piece. It uses broader context to help determine the most relevant translation, which it then rearranges and adjusts to sound more like a real person speaking with proper grammar. This makes translated paragraphs and articles a lot smoother and easier to read.”
Google adds, “If you’ve used offline translations before, you’ll see a banner on your home screen which will take you to the right place to update your offline files. If not, go to your offline translation settings and tap the arrow next to the language name to download the package for that language.” These changes should already be live and rolling out to users, but if you don’t see it not worry as it should eventually reach you over the next few days.

Communication is important amongst gamers, especially in team-based games. This is why apps such as Discord have flourished where it comes with extensive tools and features that allow gamers to keep in touch with each other especially in the game itself. However it seems that Valve doesn’t want Discord to have all the fun.
In an announcement on its website, Valve has announced a bunch of new Steam Chat features that will be available in an open beta. According to Valve, these new features include an updated Friends List. “The friends list now has a customizable favorites section at the top, for quick access to the people, groups, and chats you care about most. You’ll also see in-game friends at the top of your list, grouped together by game or even by party, making it easier to join in, or just to see which games are popular among friends.”
There will also be support for group chats which lets users drag and drop their friends into the window to create a group chat. These chats can be saved so that they can be revisited later. There are also some Discord-like features, such as adding text channels, voice channels, and so on.
Valve has also announced that they have overhauled the voice chat system where it will now be a more seamless one-click experience. For those who are interested in these features and would like to take part in the open beta, head on over to the Steam website for the details.
