ElGamerWICHO reported that Gears of War: E-Day had released "Spooky Season," a limited-time Halloween and Day of the Dead update with modes, missions, rewards, and store packs. He detailed that the Trick-or-Treat mode was a variant of Crucible where players had to control the Jack-o-Cannon to score points and reach the 200 needed to win. The match consisted of a round of up to 25 minutes. The weapon reloaded faster and had a greater range than the Crucible core, he added. He also noted that pumpkins replaced the power weapons on the map and could contain special weapons or traps. ElGamerWICHO indicated that the temporary mission "Battling the Boogeyman" faced players against the Boogeyman, or Coco, and his minions with glowing pumpkin heads. He added that a shared capture showed the mission on Allfather difficulty. Regarding the rewards, he said they were obtained by participating in the temporary modes and missions, although the images did not specify the challenges or requirements to unlock them. He also described two legendary packs: "The Hero's End," for 2,000 iron, featuring a charred and incandescent soldier that Vraahk scorches with imulsion during the campaign, and "Day of the Dead," for 1,600 iron, featuring Lucas characterized with a skull face, hat, candles, and marigold flowers. According to the author, each pack included 17 items; the second contained weapon designs with skeleton, skull, and flower motifs. He specified that the prices were expressed in iron, the premium currency of the game, and corresponded to the amounts paid for both packs. ElGamerWICHO clarified that Coco and the Boogeyman were the same character and that the shared information did not detail how to unlock his appearance or when the event ended. He added that the update was already available and that he would soon publish more content about it. #Halloween #DiaDeMuertos #GearsOfWar (translated)

Lilly Téllez responded to Citlalli Hernández that the Metropolitan Area of Mexico Valley Planning Program was not a law, but rather a draft initiative. According to Téllez, its page 174 proposed that, after a first phase without legal changes, tax and fiscal legislation should be modified to increase property tax collection, through adjustments to the tax base, rates, and fees, and to align cadastral values with those of the real estate market. Téllez argued that, in Mexico City, the property tax is calculated by applying the rate of Article 130 of the local Fiscal Code to the cadastral value, according to Articles 127 and 130. Therefore, she claimed that adjusting the base and rates with the stated purpose of collecting more would raise the payment, even if a rate increase was not announced. She also pointed out that, if the Program were approved, Article 38 of the General Law on Human Settlements, Land Use Planning, and Urban Development would allow one year to adjust urban development programs to it. She added that Sedatu had already admitted that the wording was imprecise and requested monitoring of the document before its proposals turned into law. Téllez concluded that, if there would be no increase, those paragraphs should be eliminated before presenting the initiative. #CDMX #OrdenaciónUrbana #Fiscalidad (translated)
