There is a new PC MMORPG about Dragon Ball – Here is Gameplay

Out of nowhere, a PC MMORPG based on Dragon Ball appeared at the Chinese gaming fair ChinaJoy, where it was even playable.

What was there to see at the ChinaJoy fair? ChinaJoy is the largest Asian gaming fair, which took place last week in Shanghai. One of the countless games presented there was a new MMORPG for PC developed by Namco Bandai and Giant Network.

It is surprising that there has been almost no information about an MMORPG of such a major IP as Dragon Ball until now. The game has already gone through several closed beta tests and even has a playable demo version showcased at the ChinaJoy fair.

The title of the game is roughly translated as “Dragon Ball: Legend of Space and Time”. You can watch a long gameplay video here:

4 Races and Locations That Dragon Ball Fans Know

What do we know about the MMORPG? For now, there isn’t much information available about the MMORPG. So far, the only confirmed platform is the PC. The playable demo provided the following information:

  • There are 4 playable races: Sayajin, Majin, Namekians, and Earthlings.
  • The story seems to revolve around time travel, and Trunks is an important NPC character.
  • Players can visit several well-known locations from the Dragon Ball universe, such as Master Roshi’s Island.
  • There is a kind of upgrade system consisting of “implants,” and players can assemble a setup from available boosts. These enhance various stats like attack power or HP.
  • The Majin have the highest defense values of all 4 races, making them a sort of “melee tank.”
  • The Namekians specialize in ranged combat and also have healing skills.

Excitement about the game seems to be limited so far. The few reactions found online mention slow tab-target combat and that the gameplay “feels worse than many mobile games.”

Is there any information about beta tests or a release date? So far, at least two closed beta tests for the MMORPG have been held, but there is still no known release date.

Interestingly, the official website of the game has not been updated since May, despite having a booth with a playable demo at ChinaJoy.

This is what Piemonte Calcio should look like in FIFA 20, fans celebrate the emblem

In FIFA 20, the first image of the emblem of Piemonte Calcio has surfaced. And it doesn’t look bad at all.

Update: Here you can find the ratings of Piemonte Calcio in FIFA 20.

What is this image? A few hours ago, a closed beta for FIFA 20 started for a select few. This is not available in Germany, but only in the USA and the UK.

It is said that the emblem of Piemonte Calcio has been leaked. This leak is currently spreading on reddit. Here is what the emblem looks like:

This is said to be the emblem of Piemonte Calcio in FIFA 20

EA Sports officially prohibits streaming the beta or posting images and videos from it online. However, the last few years have shown that not all participants adhere to this, revealing exciting information to the community rebelliously.

Where was this emblem displayed in the beta? According to a reddit post, at the start of FIFA 20, you can choose your favorite club to support. Piemonte Calcio also appeared with this emblem there. Piemonte Calcio is actually Juventus Turin, but the rights to it belong to competitor Konami, so EA Sports has to create a new name, a new emblem, and a new jersey for it.

This emblem is quite well received

This is how the community reacts: “For a fake emblem, this looks really good,” is the top comment under the leak. So far, over 500 people have agreed with this opinion. Many other comments state that it looks “really good” or “surprisingly good.”

Several users believe that this emblem looks better than the new official emblem of Juventus Turin. You can see the “real” emblem here on the chest of Cristiano Ronaldo from FIFA 19:

fifa 19 logo

People are glad that the “Piemonte Calcio” logo instead resembles the old Juve emblem much more and incorporates some of its elements:

The shape of the emblem, the arc in the middle, as well as an animal logo (but a different one) at the bottom in the middle have been retained, and the colors black and white dominate.

Is this the real logo of Piemonte Calcio? Keep in mind that this is a leak that has not been officially confirmed and comes from the beta. So enjoy the info with a grain of caution.

Are these the ratings of Piemonte Calcio in FIFA 20? The leak also shows the club’s team rating: 89 in attack, 84 in midfield, and 85 in defense. However, the ratings in the beta are not yet in their final form. There will certainly still be adjustments before the FIFA 20 release on September 27.

Update: Here you can find more leaks from the FIFA 20 beta. Among them is said to be the new Piemonte Calcio jersey.

What does the jersey of Piemonte Calcio look like? That is not known. Some weeks ago, there was a supposed leak that showed this jersey:

fifa 20 gameplay

However, the emblem on it looks different than that from the beta. What design the jersey will ultimately have remains to be seen.

When you can play the FIFA 20 demo, we discuss here.

Why is Piemonte Calcio even in FIFA 20?

This is what it’s about: The end of the partnership between EA Sports and Juventus has several implications for FIFA 20:

  • The club has to be renamed. EA Sports decided on Piemonte Calcio.
  • Piemonte Calcio will be equipped with fictional emblems and jerseys.
  • The Juve players still have the real names and an authentic look.

What do you think of this emblem?

Yes, in WoW: Classic hunters’ pets remain pure chaos

Blizzard has confirmed that Hunter pets in World of Warcraft Classic will continue to be a source of constant joy. Their aggro radius remains unpredictable.

Last night, the final “Pre-Launch Test” for World of Warcraft Classic began. Blizzard took this opportunity to mention a few bugs that are not actually errors. However, there are still some fixes coming, as not everything is running smoothly in WoW: Classic. However, those hoping that Hunter companions would no longer cause chaos in the “new” Classic are mistaken.

These 2 things are not errors: Blizzard revealed two details about Hunters that are not errors. These are:

  • The rate at which companions regenerate focus is not always consistent.
  • The aggro radius of companions works exactly as expected.

Especially on the last point, Blizzard emphasizes that “as expected” actually means: It is chaotic and extremely inconsistent. This was the case back then and will be again.

What does this mean? For all Hunters and groups who take a Hunter along, this is likely to be a frightening message. This means that Hunter companions will frequently “add” and engage enemies that were actually far away. But that’s just part of the Classic feeling.

More bugs that are not bugs can be found in this article.

These bugs will still be fixed: Additionally, there are some bugs that were indeed errors and will be fixed by Blizzard before the release. These include the following issues:

  • Attacking (melee) resets the timer for the active “Auto Shot”.
  • When a quiver is equipped, the tooltip for Aimed Shot incorrectly shows a speed bonus, even though the ability does not receive one.
  • The Hunter’s quiver sometimes appears incorrectly on the Hunter’s hand instead of the equipped weapon.
  • There is a slight delay when using companion abilities (Hunter and Warlock) when activated via “Auto Casting”.
  • The animation and sound for Auto Shot play every time the target is switched while Auto Shot is active.
  • Hunter’s Mark is stackable with different ranks of Improved Hunter’s Mark.
  • Multi-Shot can hit totems.
  • Hunter pet abilities are not automatically pulled into the pet bar when learned.
  • Eagle Eye fails when selecting a location further than 100 meters away.

So there is still a bit to do before the release in about 3 weeks.

Do games like FIFA 19 give Twitch streamers better chances at loot boxes?

In many games like FIFA 19 , there is an idea circulating that Twitch streamers and YouTubers have better chances with loot boxes than regular players. Now, during a hearing, a detail came to light that at least gives new fuel to this rumor, but does not confirm it.

This is the situation: Games like FIFA 19 rely on loot boxes. EA makes an incredible amount of money from it here in the West. In Asia, the model is even more widespread – mobile MMOs are full of loot boxes.

In FIFA 19, players buy card packs and then open them in hopes of drawing particularly strong players. However, the chance of getting the right superstars is virtually negligible.

Players believe that these chances might be manipulated.

YouTUbe-FIFA-19
The YouTube video of a pack opening for FIFA 15 has now garnered 40 million views.

Some FIFA players have felt for years:

  • I only get rubbish
  • But YouTubers or Twitch streamers often get super players

This idea of favoritism towards content creators has circulated – like the idea of momentum – for years in the community. Some dismiss it as selective perception or a conspiracy theory. But others firmly believe that something is fishy.

Until now, there has not been any real “evidence” but it has been referred to the realm of “player superstition”.

FIFA-Youtube-Pack
These pack openings are also popular on German YouTube and generate views – especially the exceptionally good ones.

Streamer manager says: It was considered just once

This is new: Currently, loot boxes are being widely discussed and there are first changes. Nintendo, Xbox, and PlayStation have now advocated that loot boxes should be “transparent”.

At a workshop on “loot boxes” by the US Federal Trade Commission, loot boxes were the topic.

Omeed Dariani, the CEO of a streamer agency, was asked here about the relationship between publishers and streamers regarding the topic of “loot boxes”.

Triggered the debate: loot boxes in Battlefront 2
In Star Wars Battlefront 2, loot boxes caused a lot of trouble.

He says: “Companies pay streamers to open loot boxes.” Although it is rare for someone to say: “Hey, just open a lot of loot boxes,” it does happen.

Dariani says: “I have definitely been in a room where a publisher said, we could give this person better chances with the packs if he opens them for advertising reasons.”

However, this has only happened once. Dariani does not say which game this was specifically proposed for or which publisher is meant. So it is not clear whether it was FIFA 19.

Further, it is not known whether a Twitch streamer or YouTuber ever really had “better chances”. What is known is that at least one publisher has toyed with the idea.

x-ray llamas
In Fortnite: Save the World, there are now transparent loot boxes.

Loot boxes are important for Twitch streamers

Why are loot boxes appealing to viewers? Dariani explains: “It’s exciting. You never know what will come out. You never know if they will get rare stuff. But hey, I don’t have to spend thousands of dollars to buy my own loot boxes, I can watch someone else do it.”

von Max Handwerk

This is how streamers handle sponsorships: According to Dariani, streamers do not hide the fact that they are supported by companies. For them, it is a badge of honor.

They then tell their viewers: “Look, EA sees that my content is valuable. They pay me. They support my work and the community I have built.”

For many people, this is a validation and a signal of growth.

Paid pack openings create the impression of “better loot boxes”

Here’s what it’s about: From the information:

  • it becomes clear that streamers sometimes actually open loot boxes with “other people’s money”
  • but it is not clear that they really have better chances

However, publishers seem to be using streamers and YouTubers to promote loot boxes. Especially on YouTube, the videos with the very best openings get the most clicks. By highlighting these highlights, the feeling is reinforced that the chances are better than in the daily lives of players.

Borderlands 3: 2k's response to accusations of intimidating a YouTuber

In the loot shooter Borderlands 3 there is unrest in the community a month before the release. YouTuber SupMatto made allegations that the publisher 2k had sent detectives to his home – following which others called for a boycott of Borderlands 3. 2k now confirms that detectives were sent. But the situation is different from how the YouTuber presents it.

This is the situation: About a week ago, a test stream went live, showing 4 hours of gameplay from Borderlands 3. A YouTuber reported on this “secret” stream. That YouTuber was Matt “SupMatto” Somers (featured image). He has been uploading videos about the Borderlands series on his channel since 2015.

As a result, the publisher of Borderlands 3, Take-Two, reportedly issued seven copyright strikes against SupMatto on YouTube and sent him two “Private Investigators,” as the YouTuber described in a video.

In the community, some expressed solidarity with the YouTuber and the hashtag #BoycottBorderlands3 trended for four hours on Twitter in the USA. One reason for this boycott call was that it should not be allowed for a company to intimidate a YouTuber like this.

Borderlands 3 Rhys Title 1140x445

2k says: We have been investigating SupMatto for 10 months

This is what Take-Two says now: A spokesperson for 2k says in a statement to IGN: “Take Two and 2k take the security and confidentiality of our trade secrets very seriously. The action we took this week was the result of a 10-month investigation.”

It is further stated that this “content creator,” meaning SupMatto, had long benefited from violating Take-Two’s policies and leaking confidential information about their products. He had violated 2k’s copyright.

Borderlands 3 Moze

This is what the YouTuber says: The YouTuber represented in the video that the official Borderlands YouTube channel had posted a hint about the test channel on YouTube on April 29 itself. This test channel for the stream of Borderlands 3 was not found by him, but was generally known.

YouTuber apparently knew too much

This is what the YouTuber allegedly did according to 2k: According to 2k, the YouTuber misrepresents the situation. He supposedly exploited a vulnerability in Twitch’s security system. The Twitch stream for Borderlands 3 was private, not public, as SupMatto states.

SupMatto reportedly published videos in 2018 that contained accurate information about characters and mechanics in Borderlands 3 that were not yet official:

The corresponding videos on SupMatto’s channel have since been deleted.

von Leya Jankowski

The YouTuber is also said to have operated a Discord channel where he published further leaked information about Borderlands 3. Players gained access to this channel if they purchased a $5 membership for SupMatto’s YouTube channel.

Take-Two views the action against the YouTuber as part of their efforts to close leaks and maintain the confidentiality of trade secrets. They want to prevent such leaks from having a negative impact on fans and customers.

Borderlands 3 Gaige title

What happens next? IGN also states that Discord and Twitch are likely investigating the respective account of SupMatto. SupMatto’s Discord channel was allegedly locked 20 minutes after the visit of the private detectives due to “the sale, promotion, or distribution of hacks, cheats, or cracked accounts.”

2k and Take-Two do not seemingly want to take further action against the leaker.

SupMatto himself has deleted his Twitter account and announced a break from YouTube.

He will then see in September whether he will even play Borderlands 3. At the moment he is out. He seems to have been at the source for too long and now needs to step back from Borderlands 3.

Destiny 2: Shadowkeep still has many open questions – Bungie says when answers will come

With Destiny 2, the release of Shadowkeep is slowly approaching. Until then, the developers want to share a lot of interesting information on important topics with the fans. We will show what Bungie is planning before the release.

What is Shadowkeep? Shadowkeep is the name of the upcoming fall expansion for Destiny 2. It will be released on October 1, 2019, for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.

It will not only bring new content such as the Moon location, a new raid, or fresh exotics, but also numerous changes to the game – for example, to the in-game shop Eververse or the armor system.

Everything we know so far about Shadowkeep can be found here: Everything about Destiny 2: Shadowkeep – Release, Pre-order, and Features

destiny-2-shadowkeep-titan-warlock

What is the planned information flood about? Even though Bungie has already revealed some details about the new expansion, fans still have many unanswered questions – for example, about the new Armor 2.0 system or PvP. The studio aims to address many of these topics before the release of Shadowkeep.

Information roadmap until Shadowkeep – What Bungie wants to discuss

In the current “This Week at Bungie” blog, Bungie has now announced how they intend to satisfy the knowledge thirst of eager Guardians until October 1. The studio has a lot planned for this. Here’s what you can expect:

destiny-2-shadowkeep-waffe

Insights into the learnings from Destiny 2 for Shadowkeep: Already next week (starting August 12), Destiny’s Franchise Director Luke Smith will release a kind of Director’s Cut on the current State of the Game.

In it, he will reflect on the past six months of Destiny 2, discuss what has been learned, and which changes will result from it for Shadowkeep.

This will actually be the first of two parts of the post. However, this part alone is expected to be over 4,100 words long. The second part is expected to follow shortly and will be of approximately the same length.

destiny 2 shadowkeep gun armor

Armor customization preview: Also next week (on August 14), there will be a stream in which the developers want to highlight the new Armor 2.0 system and its possibilities. Bungie wants to show you how to “build a better monster-killing machine”.

In the live stream, the developers will assemble a Titan, a Warlock, and a Hunter. They will use various mods, artifacts, and ornaments on the armor and test the new builds in the sandbox.

Destiny 2 at Gamescom: Bungie will be present at the big gaming fair Gamescom, which opens on August 19 with the Opening Night Show (running until August 24). During the fair, there will be more new details about the Shadowkeep expansion.

destiny 2 shadowkeep moon

The seasons in year 3 of Destiny 2: The developers also want to address how the seasons of Destiny 2 will change in the third year of the game.

So far, it is only known that the seasons will be independent of each other. This means they can all be purchased separately. So if you do not like the content of a specific season, you can simply skip it.

PvP in Shadowkeep: Many fans are curious about the future of Destiny 2’s Crucible. The developers also apparently want to address this topic before the launch. A PvP reveal is expected beforehand. Additionally, there should be an invite to the Crucible at the Penny Arcade Expo (PAX), which runs from August 30 to September 2.

destiny 2 shadowkeep

What else is coming? Bungie has not yet provided an explicit answer to this. However, the studio emphasizes that the previously announced topics are just a few highlights, and there will be more. Everything will be compressed into a kind of final push in September.

Are you already excited about the latest info? What topic concerns you the most leading up to Shadowkeep? What do you want to know more about?

Since these are prestige tasks, you will only see them once you have completed all regular seven challenges of the Colorful Shootout mission.

All locations of the graffiti-covered billboards in Season 10

Where are the billboards? Fortunately, the two required billboards are not far apart. You can find them here on the map:

You can find detailed descriptions of the locations here:

  • Northeast of the hill with “Grandma’s House” at the intersection near E7
  • Directly in front of the entrance to Shifty Shafts, next to the Reboot Van

The two billboards have a large smiley face with a “GG” on it. It is sufficient to simply visit the billboards. You do not need to spray them or interact with them in any other way.

Is there a video for this? We have embedded a video from YouTuber Tabor Hill here. In it, you can see in detail how to find the billboards with the graffiti. Have fun!

What you should pay attention to: In itself, the path between the two billboards is not too long. But malicious players might be lurking there. So land quickly and sail directly to Shifty Shafts right after registering the first billboard at E7 and watch out for sneaky foes.

You might also try it in the Team Rumble mode, as you have respawns and do not lose your progress if you get killed.

Pokémon GO brings a new update: You can especially look forward to 3 innovations

In Pokémon GO there is the new update 0.151.0. Especially 3 innovations should please many fans. We show you what it has to offer.

What kind of update is this? The update 0.151.0 is currently being rolled out. This means that not all players can download it yet. In the coming days, you can certainly expect all the innovations.

There are no huge features, but data miners have found new Crypto Pokémon and some visual adjustments.

Crypto Pokemon
More Crypto Pokémon have been found in the game data

The most important innovations in update 0.151.0

These Crypto Pokémon have been found: The update has included 20 new Crypto Pokémon. These include:

  • Diglett, Dugtrio
  • Krabby, Kingler
  • Shellder, Cloyster
  • Geodude, Graveler, Golem
  • Kangaskhan
  • Rhyhorn, Rhydon, Rhyperior
  • Murcrow, Honchkrow
  • Hippopotas, Hippowdon
  • Hawlucha, Gible, Gabite
Hawlucha
The Hawlucha family could soon also appear in the Crypto version

Although all Pokémon were found in the update, they are not yet in the game. When Niantic will release these monsters in their Crypto version remains to be seen.

Many of the new Crypto Pokémon include monsters that were also used by Giovanni in the console games. So it is quite possible that they are related to the release of the Team Rocket boss. After all, he was also spotted at the GO Fest in Yokohama.

Are new hats coming for Pokémon? A discovery in the game files surprises the data miners. Pokémon like Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, and Pikachu were found with the suffix “Fall”, meaning “Autumn”.

It is now suspected that these Pokémon might wear a hat at an event in autumn. Something will definitely happen with these Pokémon, as otherwise they wouldn’t have been found with this suffix in the code.

Fights in PvP mode are now clearer: This small change delights thousands of players, as it was really annoying, especially in battles against Team Rocket: You can now see the HP display during team selection in the PvP mode.

This was not possible before, which is why you didn’t know whether your team was healed or not. Now it can be seen at a glance.

What else is new? Otherwise, there have mainly been visual adjustments. Hatching eggs now has a new animation that somewhat resembles the animation when releasing Pokémon.

Additionally, the ball size has been readjusted again after it was changed with the last update. Accordingly, the Pokéball is also back in front of the circle when thrown and not behind the circle. This was also introduced with the last update.

The Safari Zone in Canada starts in September. Even we German players have something to gain from it:

This is new in The Division 2 with Episode 1 – Is it worth a return?

With Title Update 5 and the “Episode 1 – D.C. Outskirts: Expeditions” DLC, The Division 2 received some new content in July 2019. What’s inside? And how does the first of three planned DLCs for Year 1 fare? We reveal for whom the new content is now worthwhile.

What are the DLCs about? For the first year of The Division 2, 3 DLCs are planned, which will be released in an episodic format and will continuously provide new content for the tactical shooter.

These DLCs are available for free to all players—except for some secret missions—even without the Year 1 Pass. Owners of the pass get 7 days of early access to these new contents.

On July 23rd, “Episode 1” became available for Year Pass holders, while all other agents have been able to play this first DLC since July 30th on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.

What’s inside Episode 1 – The Contents

The “Episode 1” DLC is called D.C. Outskirts: Expeditions, and as the name suggests, it takes agents to the wooded outskirts of Washington D.C.. There, players can discover new missions and a new PvE activity.

These are the new contents:

Two new story missions: Players can now undertake two new main missions outside Washington D.C.:

  • Manning National Zoo
  • and Camp White Oak.

These are full-fledged missions that can easily match in length and presentation with other main missions in the game.

In the zoo, agents need to hunt down and eliminate the Outcast leader Emeline Shaw, who has recovered from her defeat on Roosevelt Island and has now barricaded herself with her followers in the zoo.

In Camp White Oak, you need to attack the Black Tusk and capture one of their leaders. This elite mercenary group has taken over an estate deep in the forests near Washington, which you must now cleanse.

A new PvE activity – Expeditions: This is a kind of puzzle activity on the wooded edge of Washington.

The Expeditions take you to the grounds of Kenly College, where you must complete different tasks in three different sections to find friendly survivors and uncover the fate of a lost military convoy. During this, you can demonstrate your exploration, puzzle, and combat skills.

The Expeditions are somewhat larger than the regular story missions in the game.

The-Division-2-College

New secret missions: Owners of the Year 1 Pass can also look forward to two new secret missions called Classified Assignments.

These are somewhat shorter missions that delve deeper into various events surrounding the fall of Washington D.C. These secret missions place a strong focus on the story. For example, you learn more about the civilian population or some factions in the game.

The two new Classified Assignments are called “Central Aquarium” and “NSA Site B13.” They take you to an aquarium complex where you need to rescue civilians being besieged by the Hyenas, and to a secret NSA base that you need to cleanse of the Black Tusk.

More about this can be found here: Finally, we know what to expect in the 2 new secret missions

The-Division-2-Expedition

New Exotics: With Title Update 5, two new exotic items came into the game. However, even though they were declared as part of the update, they can only be obtained through the new content of Episode 1.

division 2 diamondback

New weapons: Also with Title Update 5, 2 new firearms have been introduced to the game. While these can drop randomly everywhere, you will certainly receive these weapons from the two new story missions of Episode 1.

  • The Stoner LMG can be obtained during the initial playthrough of Camp White Oak
  • The Carbine 7 assault rifle is obtained after mastering Manning National Zoo for the first time.

What these new weapons can do, you can find out here: How strong are the new weapons Stoner LMG and Carbine 7

New cosmetic collectibles: There are also new contents for collectors. In addition to numerous new mobile phones and recordings, there are also 5 new backpack charms. All of them can be found in the Expeditions or the new secret missions of Episode 1.

More about this can be found in our detailed Backpack Trophy Guide: How to get all the new backpack trophies from Title Update 5

Some backpack trophies from The Division 2

What else has changed with Title Update 5: The first DLC was released hand in hand with the major Title Update 5. This included numerous changes and improvements to the game. Included were among other things:

More about this can be found here: The Division 2 aims to make a turnaround with Title Update 5 – Here’s what’s in the big patch

Division-2-Park

How is Episode 1 received?

The fans have mixed feelings about the new content.

Pro: The numerous changes that came into the game with Title Update 5 are especially highlighted positively. The overhaul of the skills has been particularly well-received – finally skill builds like the Bomber Drone are genuinely useful.

Both of the new Exotics are strong and are well-received by the fans. Furthermore, the two new story missions from Episode 1 are praised. The missions are exciting and interesting, and the new environment is simply great. Many agents wish for more like this.

Contra: What is being criticized, however, is precisely the core of the new DLC – the Expeditions to the outskirts of Washington. Many players simply hoped for more here.

Many agents see no reason to engage in this activity permanently after having mastered all three sections once and secured the new weapon exotic and possibly the collectibles there.

Overall, the content volume is considered too small by some fans. Once you have played the two new missions, as well as the Kenly College and the 2 small secret missions as a season pass holder, you’ve essentially seen everything new. Had the expedition sections not been staggered in release, many would have already completed it all on the first day, according to some players’ criticism.

Whether the numerous changes from Title Update 5 and the two new Exotics with their respective new build possibilities can keep the fans entertained until the next content drop in the upcoming fall remains doubtful for many players.

Division-2

Who is it worth it for?

Anyone who still enjoys The Division 2 and has stayed engaged despite the lack of new content will have plenty of reasons to continue doing so, especially due to the many changes from Title Update 5.

Especially with the changes to the skills and the two new Exotics, there are now numerous new build possibilities that want to be tested. The new missions and the Expeditions are essentially a nice addition that further expands the world of The Division 2.

However, those hoping for substantial content that can keep them engaged for the long term will likely be disappointed.

Also, anyone who has taken a break and wanted to check back in with the new DLC won’t be able to benefit from the new content for long.

The Expeditions offer little replay value after a single playthrough, while the new story missions are designed quite well but ultimately offer nothing really different from the rest of the game. At least they bring a bit of variety. But even the secret missions are unlikely to be played again by many.

In short, the new contents are quite limited and quickly consumed. After that, The Division is essentially the same game regarding truly relevant long-term content as it was before the “Episode 1” DLC:

  • So anyone who was not really happy with the volume and activities in the game before the DLC will not be satisfied with it after its release – at least not in the long run.
  • However, those who had fun playing The Division 2 before are likely to continue to enjoy it with the DLC and the update.

Conclusion: It can be confidently recommended to anyone who already enjoys The Division 2 to log in and at least run through the new missions and Expeditions once. They are definitely fun!

Those who want more will continue to play anyway. The rest had at least a few hours of something new to see in The Division 2.

What do you think so far about Title Update 5 and the “Episode 1” DLC? Let us know in the comments.

The Division 2: With this build, the Diamondback becomes a monster

In The Division 2, you can build a strong PvE build around the Diamondback. This deals over 1.2 million damage.

The build revolves around this weapon: The Diamondback is an exotic rifle that has been obtainable since 06.08 through the Expeditions of Episode 1.

The exotic immediately catches the eye with a striking design, and the community is divided on whether it’s cool or horrifically ugly: a rattlesnake winds around the barrel:

division 2 diamondback look

The weapon talents:

  • Painful Bite: The Diamondback randomly marks an enemy. If the enemy is hit, the mark is removed, and a critical hit with +20% total damage is guaranteed. Afterwards, or after every reload, a random additional enemy is marked.
  • Long Fangs: After hitting 5 marked enemies, +50% reload speed and +20% total damage are granted, and all shots fired are counted as critical hits for 10 seconds.
  • Skin Shedding: While the weapon is drawn, +20% additional armor is granted for 3 seconds with each round loaded. If the weapon is in the holster, +8% bonus armor is granted for 2 seconds each time during reload or weapon switch.

You can read here how to get the Diamondback.

This is the build: The YouTuber NothingButSkillz presents his build around the Diamondback, which allows for over 1.2 million damage per shot. With this, you can kill named elite bosses with just 2 shots.

The build is designed primarily for PvE and fully relies on critical hit damage and headshots. In the video, the build is presented, and we explain it further in German:

How to build the PvE build with the Diamondback

Focus on these stats: A high damage output is at the forefront of this build. Skills should be fully neglected. You should have around 270,000 armor, 93,000 health points, and a proud 0 skill power. You need 12 offensive (red) and 7 defensive (blue) attributes.

Take this weapon with you: The important weapon is the Diamondback. The mods improve:

  • +10% precision
  • +10% damage against elite
  • +10% stability
  • +10% critical hit damage
diamondback mods

These are the armor parts:

  • Mask from Murakami Industries with bonuses on health points and +42% damage against elite (mod). The talent is called Relentless and gives +10% damage against elite enemies. Thus, the mask alone grants +52% damage against elite.
  • Chest from Overlord Armaments with bonuses of +8% weapon damage, +18.5% critical hit damage (mod), and +7% headshot damage. The talents are “Unstoppable Force” (killing an enemy grants +2% weapon damage per 25,000 points of maximum armor value). With the mods, you can further increase rifle damage and armor.
  • Holster from Gila Guard with bonuses on health points and +13% critical hit damage (mod). With the mods, further increase rifle damage and weapon damage.
  • Knee pads from Overlord Armaments with bonuses on total armor and the talent Relentless. Here too, you increase weapon damage and rifle damage with mods.
  • Gloves from Overlord Armaments with bonuses on health points and +10% rifle damage (mod). The talent is Precise, which grants +15% headshot damage. You could also use the Relentless talent here.
  • Backpack from 5.11 Tactical with bonuses on 8% weapon damage (mod), armor, and health points. The talents are Relentless and Hardened (+10% armor). Improve weapon damage and rifle damage with the mods.
diamondback pvp build division

These benefits come from the brand sets:

  • 3 pieces from Overlord Armaments provide +10% rifle damage, +7.5% armor, and +7% damage against elite
  • Murakami Industries grants +8% health points with one piece equipped
  • Gila Guard provides +5% armor with one piece equipped
  • 5.11 Tactical gives +5% protection from elite with one piece equipped

In short: Improve rifle damage, weapon damage, critical hit damage, and damage against elite to create a true damage monster in PvE. Also improve armor to stay on your feet.

Overall, you should now be showing around 160,000 weapon damage, 87% critical hit damage, 22% weapon damage bonus, 51% rifle damage, 99% damage against elite, and 92% headshot damage with the Diamondback.

damage 12mio
Over 1.2 million damage in practice

These are the skills: With the skills, you can choose the ones you prefer. For example, use the Reviver Drone and the Booster Chem Launcher to avoid going down too quickly, especially when playing solo.

This build may not be for everyone

This is how you play the build: If you quickly and accurately hit the marked enemies and thus activate the exotic talents, you can deal enormous damage with the Diamondback. The strength of this exotic depends largely on your precision and your ability to quickly target enemies. If you miss a shot, the buff resets.

Therefore, this build is mainly recommended for PC agents. You should be able to reliably land headshots. But with good aim, you can have fun with it on any platform.

Borderlands 3 has dinosaurs, even though it calls them differently

A new planet for Borderlands 3 has been revealed. Check out the trailer for the swampy world “Eden-6” here!

In a few weeks, the release of the loot shooter Borderlands 3 will finally take place. To keep the hype alive until the release, the developer Gearbox regularly shares new info snippets or small trailers about the characters and the game world. Now a new clip has been released that introduces the world “Eden-6”.

What is Eden-6? The planet Eden-6 is described as a “wet swamp hole” where civilization is still in its infancy. The true threats of this planet are the wild beasts that inhabit it.

For instance, there are the gigantic Saurians (let’s be honest: they are dinosaurs), which can breathe fire and be larger than houses. Also present are the more ape-like Jabbers, who jump down from trees and bash with clubs.

As if that weren’t enough, the Children of the Vault are also on Eden-6, happy to receive a beating. They are trying to gain control over the planet.

Jakobs and the Hammerlocks are also involved: There is a bit of civilization on Eden-6 after all. The villa of the Jakobs Clan, one of the weapon manufacturers in the Borderlands series, is located here. You’ll meet Wainwright Jakobs there – his familial connection to Marcus (the gun dealer) is still unknown.

Also joining the fray are Lady Aurelia Hammerlock and her brother Sir Hammerlock. It shouldn’t surprise anyone that they are navigating a rather wild planet, as they felt at home in the predecessor.

What do you think of Eden-6? Do you like a swampy planet with plenty of vegetation? Or do you prefer the planets with the metropolises, like Promethea?

Fortnite: Spray various gas stations – Map with locations

One of the new mission challenges in Season 10 of Fortnite themed “Spray and Pray” requires you to spray various gas stations in Fortnite. Where to find each gas station is explained here.

This is the challenge: The missions of Week 2 of Season 10 are themed “Spray and Pray”. You need to spray things with paint, including three gas stations. And they must be three different ones. However, you do not have to decorate all the gas stations in the same match; you can save the task as you wish.

Locations of all gas stations in Fortnite in Season 10

Where are the gas stations? You can see where to find gas stations here on the map.

fortnite-season-10-map-tankstellen

Detailed descriptions of the locations can be found here:

  • At C3 near Pleasant Park is a gas station
  • At C4 south of Pleasant Park and west of Loot Lake is a gas station
  • At C5, between Snobby Shores and Tilted Town is a gas station
  • At F7 near Salty Springs is a gas station
  • At F9, north of Lucky Landing is a gas station
  • At G9, at the entrance to the desert biome is a gas station
  • At I8, in Paradise Palms is a gas station

There was also a gas station in Neo Tilted, but since a Western town was established here, the gas station is gone.

What do I do at a gas station? Simply go to the gas stations and spray any spray logo on the wall. Do this at three different gas stations and you have completed the task.

Is there also a video? We have embedded a video here. In it, you can see in detail how to find the gas stations. Have fun!

https://youtu.be/rbkSTU7CDLE

You should pay attention to this: Each gas station can be a death trap. Because evil players often lie in wait for you there and kill you while you want to spray. So be careful and look for the gas stations later in the match.

What are the other challenges? These tasks also await you with Spray and Pray:

Pokemon GO gets a Safari Zone in Canada, but you also have something to gain

In Pokémon GO there will be a new Safari Zone soon. It will take place in Montreal, Canada, but players worldwide will also benefit from it.

What kind of event is this? The Safari Zone is an event similar to the GO Fest. In a specific city, special Pokémon appear, and the highlight is always a regional Pokémon that can be caught there.

In September, such an event will come to the Canadian city of Montreal. There, Tropius and many other Pokémon will be available. For players worldwide, a new Shiny is likely.

Safari Zone
This image announces the Safari Zone

That’s why the Safari Zone is worth it for German players

When does the event take place? The Safari Zone runs from September 20 to September 22. So it takes place over an entire weekend.

What do global players gain from it? From the past, we know that Niantic usually introduces a new Shiny globally on these weekends. This was recently the case with Pottrott or Enton.

If you look at the image for the Safari Zone in Montreal, it is likely that Shiny Yanma will be available there. After all, it is the Pokémon in the image that makes the most sense.

Shiny Yanma
This is what Shiny Yanma looks like

When could the Shiny be released worldwide? So far, Shinys have always spawned throughout the entire weekend. It is likely that this will also be the case for Yanma.

What does the Safari Zone offer? Those who want to travel to Canada will be rewarded with special spawns. In the image, you can see the following Pokémon:

  • Yanma
  • Ponyta
  • Ninjask
  • Tropius
  • Unown (likely the letters QUEBEC)
  • Dragonfly

Additionally, more Pokémon that can evolve into speedy monsters are expected to appear. Some Pokémon in the image fit that description.

Destiny 2: A secret cat statue is currently driving many guardians crazy

Currently, many Guardians in Destiny 2 want to uncover a new secret about a cat statue. What is it all about?

Where is this cat statue: In the European Airzone, the new activity of the summer event, there is a hidden room where a cat statue was found. You can reach it by jumping left from the spawn point onto a rocky ledge that is located at the bottom of the wall. From there, you enter a cave – until a grate blocks your way.

This video shows you the exact way there:

Recommended editorial content

Link to the YouTube content

Some Guardians have already managed to glitch behind the grate with a Sparrow. And there stands a strange cat statue:

cat

What is the cat statue doing here?

What purpose does this cat statue serve? Guardians have already tried many things with the cat, but have not found a way to interact with it. It cannot be moved nor can you offer it a gift.

Because such cat statues are usually known from the Dreaming City. And these enjoy a small gift that smells like mint.

In other words: No one knows what this cat statue is doing in the European Airzone. Also, there is nothing else in the secret room to interact with.

Cat is a hot topic at raidsecrets

This is driving Guardians crazy: For days, there has been discussion in the raidsecrets subreddit about this statue. It is one of the top topics that thousands of Guardians are passionately debating.

The raidsecrets is a section in the reddit forum where players chase all kinds of secrets and puzzles. Guardians also team up here when searching for hidden things in new areas.

3rd Curse Week in the Dreaming City

One of the latest theories about the cat statue was that something could happen with the statue when the 3rd Curse Week of the Dreaming City is reached. And we have been in this 3rd Curse Week since Tuesday evening.

But even this theory has fizzled out. In the last 2 days, various attempts were made again, but nothing has changed about the cat statue.

Opinions are clearly divided on what the cat could mean. Some are increasingly sure that Bungie is just having fun and is now enjoying watching Guardians fervently search for a meaning.

Others continue to explore the secret room. One user noticed that the wall behind the cat is strangely designed. It looks like there are two rows of bricks:

wall
  • The front wall is destroyed, only a few bricks are left stacked.
  • The back wall is still intact and has a different color and design than the front, destroyed wall. And this wall design has been used before to separate areas that should be accessed later, like the area in the Tower where Ada from the Black Armory is now standing.

It is suspected that Bungie will remove this back wall at a later date – possibly as part of an Exotic Quest – and then the front wall will give the impression that a wall has been broken through.

Additionally, an unnamed key has been found in the databases that is associated with the Solstice of Heroes:

key

Perhaps there is a chest behind the destroyed wall that can be opened with the key and has tasty loot for the Guardians?

More on the topic
Destiny 2: Use this chest map in the ELZ, don’t wander aimlessly around
von Tom Rothstein

By August 27, we should know. Because then the “Solstice of Heroes” event ends and so does the European Airzone activity. And who knows, maybe something will happen with the statue in Curse Week 1?

The hope for a new Exotic is not the only thing driving Guardians to feverishly solve this statue mystery. After all, a new Destiny 2 expansion, Shadowkeep, is on the horizon. Maybe the secret room also holds hints that reveal something about the expansion. After all, the European Airzone is the last big event before Shadowkeep. If Bungie has hidden any hints in the game, it will be in the European Airzone.

What do you think, what is the meaning of the cat statue and the secret room?

Ideal for: Destiny 2 remains one of the games with the best gunplay. Nowhere is shooting as much fun as in Bungie’s sci-fi shooter. Additionally, there’s a fun, interesting science fiction scenario and the hunt for ever better items for even more shooting fun!

Is there a catch? Destiny 2 has faced issues with content supply in the eyes of many players, but this is gradually being managed better. However, this comes with additional costs. Because to fully enjoy Destiny 2, you need the Forsaken expansion as well as the Annual Pass, which regularly freshens up the game with new content.

Is there a catch? In World of Warcraft, there is hardly anything to complain about. The game is mainstream at a high level and offers something for everyone. However, there will always be games that excel in individual areas – including story, graphics, combat system, or PvP – that are better. If you place a high value on these individual aspects, you might be happier elsewhere.
