If you thought that computers in the Star Wars universe would have some sort of high-tech security system that prevents any idiot from hacking into their systems, you’d be dead wrong. Star Wars Outlaws computers are very easily hacked by playing a simple game of Mastermind, provided you have the right equipment.
We’ll explain how slicing works in Star Wars Outlaws, as well as where to get the Slicing Kit so you can slice even more systems.
How to slice in Star Wars Outlaws
Slicing is like the game Mastermind, where you need to break a secret code. Select as many symbols as the sequence requires and enter to see how you did:
- If the symbol grays out, that means it isn’t in the sequence
- If it turns yellow, that means it is in the sequence, but not in that position
- If it turns blue, that means it is in the sequence, and you have it in the right position
As you progress through the game, they can get more complex. When the symbols are connected by white lines on the selection screen, that means only one symbol from that group appears in the sequence, meaning you can easily rule out several symbols at once if you find the right one from a particular group.
How to get a slicing kit in Star Wars Outlaws
The slicing kit is a bit of specialized equipment you can get your hands on just a few hours into Star Wars Outlaws that will let you slice systems even if they don’t have a terminal. To unlock it, you first need to progress the main story a bit so that you have completed the quests ‘Underworld’ and ‘New Tricks’, then visit Danka in Jaunta’s Hope’s bar.
Danka will then point you toward the slicer, so activate the quest in your journal and follow the markers. This is a straightforward but somewhat difficult quest that requires you to break into a heavily-armed Imperial base, but completing it will unlock the slicing kit for you to use whenever you need it.

Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb sends strong message after tempers flare at training camp
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb reminded teammates to keep their cool after the team had multiple skirmishes during the first two days of training camp. Rookie defensive end Donovan Ezeiruaku and tight end Brevyn Spann-Ford got involved in a brief scuffle on Tuesday. At the following practice on Wednesday, a fight broke out between safety Markquese Bell and TE Tyler Neville. New head coach Brian Schottenheimer then stopped practice and pulled the whole team together. He said the next player who threw a punch would be kicked out of practice (via Joseph Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News). "We've got to be professional," Lamb said of the incident after practice, per ESPN's Todd Archer. "I get it that we have a lot of animosity and tension between us and understanding that we want to proclaim our dominance and show like aggressiveness on both sides of the ball, but then again, to what extent?" Fighting in training camp isn't uncommon. It's an intense environment. Many are trying to prove themselves before teams trim their rosters to 53 players. However, too much brawling can threaten to tear a locker room apart. A lack of discipline was also one reason the Cowboys replaced Mike McCarthy with Schottenheimer this offseason. According to NFLPenalties.com, Dallas drew the league's sixth-most flags (128) last season. Per Archer, there were no more fights after Schottenheimer pulled the team aside. Still, the incidents raise questions about his ability to maintain control. The coach spent Wednesday morning's meeting discussing two plays where DE Sam Williams was too physical and sent to the sideline. His players must not have received the message. It's good for Dallas that Lamb seems to be echoing Schottenheimer's sentiments, but the rookie HC still must get through to his team. Rebounding from a 7-10 season could already prove challenging for the Cowboys. As of Wednesday, ESPN's Football Power Index gives Dallas a 34.5% chance to make the playoffs. Infighting will make that even more difficult.
J.J. McCarthy kicks off Minnesota Vikings training camp with explosive highlight bomb that shows how much he's improved
The Minnesota Vikings have their quarterback of the future in J.J. McCarthy and it didn't take him long to make an impact. During the first practice when they went into team drills, McCarthy fired up a 60-yard bomb to wide receiver Jordan Addison and hit him in stride. This is the first of many highlights that Vikings fans will be expecting to see over the course of the entire season. With major weapons on the outside in Addison, Justin Jefferson, and T.J. Hockenson paired with Kevin O'Connell's offense, it should become commonplace. One of the biggest things that concerned me when the Vikings selected McCarthy was his deep ball. It was far from consistent with some issues in both accuracy and the ball dying in the air. Some of that was due to his mechanics, which seem to have been improved considerably. Over the course of last offseason, the Vikings made a conscious effort to improve his mechanics and it all looks good so far. The biggest issue was how much McCarthy kicked out his right leg on his follow through. It's significantly more under control now, and it looks to be making an impact. My scouting report from when McCarthy came out highlights just that. Deep accuracy isn't consistent for McCarthy. Too often the ball either dies on him or it's poorly placed. Did have the second-highest completion percentage over 20 yards, but throws of 40+ yards are where the issue lies. He is lethal in the 10-30 yard range The intermediate game is where things are going to be massively impactful. McCarthy is lethal in that range, including how head coach Kevin O'Connell likes to run his offense. The amount of in-breaking routes he loves to call suits McCarthy to a T. Will this translate to the game? There's no reason to believe it won't be. For now, just be excited about what could be.
Tua Tagovailoa addresses relationship with Tyreek Hill after controversial comments
Shortly after Miami Dolphins players reported for training camp on Tuesday, Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill suggested he wants to be "better as a leader" after he controversially subbed himself out of Miami's regular-season finale this past January and then told reporters he was "out." While speaking with reporters on Wednesday, Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa addressed the Hill-sized elephant in the room. "I think there’s a lot more vulnerability with Tyreek," Tagovailoa explained, as shared by Michael David Smith of Pro Football Talk. "He’s conversating a lot more with the guys, not just about football, but about things off the field, being vulnerable about some of the things people know about his personal life and things of that nature. I think that’s the first step toward him building true relationships and a real connection with a lot of the guys in there." Following Hill's "out" comment, Dolphins general manager Chris Grier revealed that the 31-year-old speedster never requested a trade. While publicly apologizing to his teammates during a Super Bowl week interview, Hill directly said that Tagovailoa is his "guy." Hill also insisted at the time that he loves Tagovailoa. "Everybody makes mistakes," Tagovailoa added about Hill. "It’s just, some people, they’re in the spotlight, and their deals get pushed out more than some others. So you’ve just got to cut him some grace. That’s our teammate. We love him, but as a person, I think if you get to know him, you’ll love him too." Hill and Tagovailoa likely will need to be on the same page if they want to prevent the Dolphins from going through a franchise reset next offseason. At least head coach Mike McDaniel is reportedly on the hot seat this summer, while Tagovailoa's status beyond the upcoming campaign is up in the air after he suffered a third reported concussion since the fall of 2022 last season. "You guys aren’t the only people that heard that," Tagovailoa said about Hill's "out" statement. "...So when you say something like that, you don’t just come back from that with, 'Hey, my bad.' You’ve got to work that relationship up. You’ve got to build everything up again. It’s still a work in progress, not just for me but for everybody. But like I said, he’s working on himself, he’s working on the things he says he wants to get better with and do better on. So that’s the first step to me, so I commend him for doing that." As of Wednesday morning, DraftKings Sportsbook had the 2024 Dolphins at -275 betting odds to miss the playoffs. Those who believe the relationship between Tagovailoa and Hill is on shaky ground following Wednesday's developments may want to take a flier on such a wager before the odds change later this year.
Nationals OF makes Catch of the Year candidate to rob home run
Washington Nationals outfielder Jacob Young delivered a Catch of the Year candidate with a spectacular grab he made on Wednesday. Young’s Nationals lost 5-0 to the Cincinnati Reds at Nationals Park in Washington D.C. on Wednesday, and the score could have been worse if not for Young. Will Benson was batting for Cincinnati with a runner on third base and two outs in the top of the eighth inning with his team leading 3-0. He belted a first pitch 96 mph fastball to deep center, but Young climbed the wall in center field to rob Benson of a 2-run home run. Here is a slow-motion version of the catch that shows Young climbing the wall to make the catch. What a catch by Young. Although Benson gave that pitch quite a ride, the metrics suggest it would have been a home run in only five MLB ballparks, so a flyout was an anticipated outcome. You just wouldn’t expect that ball to become an out in the manner that it did. Holy cow.
