Borderlands 3: Finally we see the character FL4K and his pets in the trailer

Borderlands 3 has released the final trailer for its four playable characters. This time it focuses on the long-awaited Beastmaster FL4K, who leads various pets into battle.

Who is FL4K? FL4K is a kind of cyber being that is fond of animals. With a horde of adorable monsters, he traverses the wasteland and confronts various psychos that ambush him.

FL4K is on the hunt with pets

What can be seen in the trailer? FL4K appears to be an experienced hunter who can easily see through cheap traps like those set by the psychos in the trailer. He can turn invisible and thus surprise the psychos. When they sound the alarm for a major attack, he calls his animals for help.

These are:

  • A kind of insect with a mechanical drill for an arm
  • A kind of monkey monster
  • A creature that seems to love chasing cars and appears somewhat dim-witted.

Additionally, FL4K can summon flying beasts that attack enemies from the air.

You can find the video with FL4K and his animals here:

Fortnite: Visit billboards with graffiti – Here’s how it works

The new mission challenges in Season 10 of Fortnite this week feature the theme “Colorful Shootout.” One of the prestige tasks requires you to visit 2 billboards covered in graffiti in a single match. You can find out where the billboards are here.

This is the challenge: To tackle the prestige missions of week 2 in Season 10 in Fortnite, you need to visit billboards adorned with graffiti. You must visit two of them in a single match.

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:

fortnite-season-10-map-graffiti-boards

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:

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?

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?

These are currently the best MMOs in 2019 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One

What are the unique features of Destiny 2?

  • Plenty of content that can be played solo, but also many group activities such as raids (for up to 6 players)
  • Social hubs like the Farm or the Tower, where many players meet
  • Many weapons and armor pieces with various rarity levels
  • Regular new updates with new content and story continuations

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.

Fortnite: YouTubers say the map changes at Salty Springs – What’s going on?

In Season X of Fortnite, the map is supposed to change continuously. YouTubers believe that Salty Springs could be next. Their theory is quite plausible.

What is this theory? It refers to the trailer for Season X, as you can already see the new Salty Springs there. It is not a leak, but a theory that could indeed make sense.

However, one must also be somewhat skeptical, as nothing has been found in the game yet, and the developers have not said anything about it either.

This theory has YouTubers at Salty Springs

This was discovered: The theory refers to a very short clip in the trailer for Season 10. A mech lands on the map, and you can see part of the map around it.

If you overlay this clip onto the map of Season 10, it fits perfectly between Tilted Town and Salty Springs. The only problem is that Salty Springs is no longer recognizable. You only see a body of water there:

What is suspected? The YouTubers now believe that this is a hidden hint at the change at Salty Springs. Epic is already showing the new Salty Springs.

YouTuber “StanPlay” presents his theory in this video:

Link to the YouTube content

Could the theory be true? There are definitely many indications suggesting that Salty Springs could be affected:

  • Salty Springs can be translated as “Salty Spring.” It would thus fit a region with waters.
  • Season X is currently all about time travel. The new Salty Springs could therefore be a place from the past where there actually was a salty spring.
  • Epic promised in the trailer that the map could change regularly.
  • Salty Springs has been there since the start of the game and could finally get a long-desired overhaul.
  • In the trailer, Epic already showed clips from Tilted Town before it was in the game. The same could have happened here with Salty Springs.

Nevertheless, one must also temper the arguments a bit. Dataminers have not found anything on this yet. So, nothing may happen, or Salty Springs may not change for a few weeks.

Fortnite-Tilted-Town-02
Tilted Town was only recently added to the game.

In addition, there was a major map change with Tilted Town just recently. It remains to be seen if Epic will actually change the next location soon.

What do you think about the theory? Could Salty Springs actually change soon?

These are the 3 most popular landing zones in Apex Legends, reveals a tracker

In Apex Legends there are various landing zones, but not all are equally popular with all player types. One player took the effort and analyzed thousands of rounds with a tracker. The result was the most popular landing zones in Apex Legends.

What are the most popular landing zones in Apex Legends? By analyzing tracker data from over 100,000 matches, a Reddit user named ZYy9oQ has now provided a clear overview of the most popular landing spots in Apex Legends.

Therefore, he can make informed statements about the most popular landing spots, separated by rank. The following maps show where which players land the most.

All images are from ZYy9oQ.

These landing spots are always busy

Here is where the action happens: According to the collected data, especially Skulltown and Market are universally popular. Wetlands and Containment compete for 3rd place. The popularity of Skulltown among beginners in ranked and pros in the last division is particularly interesting.

The place always offers good loot and is not too far from the center of the map. The same goes for Market, which is even a bit closer to the center. So if you land there, you will surely find many opponents and should brace yourself for tough battles.

At these landing spots, you have your peace

Here, hardly anyone lands: The data from ZYy9oQ also shows where players land the least. The eastern part of the map is rather poorly attended. Particularly sparse are the locations Swamp and Relay.

Only in the two top-ranked divisions Diamond and Apex Predator does Swamps suddenly become very popular. But in the other fringe divisions, you are likely to find very little competition there. The reason is probably the great distance to the center and the rather unimpressive loot there.

Apex Legends Wattson Shhh

Nevertheless, it might be more sensible to land exactly there and equip yourself with average loot in peace than to fight with dozens of other players in Skulltown for the top loot.

Tracker provides data for landing zone map

How were the data actually gathered? ZYy9oQ used a tracker program for his analysis and created a kind of heat map showing where the hottest drop zones are. Over 120,000 games of Apex Legends were analyzed for this.

Teamfight Tactics: New patch makes weak item a must-have – Patch notes

On the night, patch 9.15b appeared in Teamfight Tactics. It brought minor balance changes, mainly affecting the items.

What is the biggest change? The item Runaan’s Hurricane received a significant buff. A champion with this item attacks a second target automatically with each attack.

The damage to the second target was previously only 25% of the actual attack. This value has now been tripled to 75%.

Additionally, the item also activates on-hit effects from other items or abilities. In the current meta with marksmen and ice beings, this item is a must-have for Ashe or Volibear.

There is a special interaction with multiple versions of Runaan’s Hurricane. The second item also copies the attack of the first. Thus, with two items, you directly attack four targets, and with three items, even eight.

Guardian Angel gets the desired nerf

What items have been strengthened? In addition to Runaan’s Hurricane, there are also other items that received a buff:

  • Guinsoo’s Rageblade – The attack speed per stack has been increased from 4% to 5%.
  • Phantom Dancer – The holder can now dodge critical ability hits. This change particularly affects the champion Akali, who landed critical hits with her ability.
  • Sword of the Divine – The activation chance has been increased from 5% to 7%.

What items have been weakened? In the current meta, particularly the Guardian Angel and Morellonomicon are very popular. Both received a small nerf with this patch:

  • Guardian Angel – The life after resurrection has been reduced from 1,000 to 800.
  • Morellonomicon – The burn damage has been reduced from 25% to 20%.
Teamfight Tactics News Download

The end of assassins?

Which champions have been buffed by the patch? Spellcasters are already very popular in their current form. Nevertheless, Veigar can still look forward to a buff:

  • Elise – Her attack damage has been increased from 40 to 45. The attack damage of the spiders has also been increased from 40 to 50.
  • Veigar – The ability damage has been increased from 300/500/700 to 300/550/800.

Which champions have been weakened? The last patch made the champions Cho’Gath and Pyke incredibly strong. The Void creature escaped a nerf, but Pyke and others have been affected:

  • Karthus – The ability damage has been reduced from 400/700/1,000 to 350/600/850, and the number of targets from 5/9/13 to 5/7/9.
  • Kayle – The mana required to activate the ability has been increased from 100 to 125.
  • Pyke – The stun duration has been reduced from 2/2.5/3 to 1.5/2/2.5.
  • Rengar – The attack speed bonus of the ability has been reduced from 0.4/0.7/1.0 to 0.3/0.5/0.7.
Twisted Fate Lol Tft 2

The changes to Pyke and Rengar further weaken the assassins a bit, who were already struggling with a nerf in patch 9.14b.

Changes to Twisted Fate? The official patch notes mention changes to Twisted Fate, but these are not yet in the game. They have accidentally slipped into the list, as Game Designer Mortdog mentioned on Twitter.

We have to wait another week for the release of patch 9.16. This is expected to bring four new champions:

The long-term motivation of WoW: World of Warcraft offers many activities that can keep players engaged even after reaching the maximum level.

Raids as a king’s discipline in PvE offer tough challenges that players can spend weeks trying to overcome. PvP arenas provide the opportunity to compete with others and climb rankings.

If you prefer a quieter experience, you can spend time with pet battles, chase achievements by farming reputation, or explore every corner of the world or engage in hours of role-playing with other players. Additionally, up to 50 character slots are available to try out and level new classes or characters.

WoW continuously supplies players with new content. Recently, Patch 8.2 brought a new area and a new raid.

  • you are into fantasy.
  • you prefer a tab-targeting system over action combat.

Destiny 2: Use this chest map in the ELZ, don’t wander aimlessly around

With this chest map, you will find all hidden chests in the ELZ of Destiny 2.

What do I need the map for? The ELZ is a new activity introduced with the Summer Event in Destiny 2. In it, you get to defeat mini-bosses, then take down a boss and look for chests with rewards.

However, these chests are quite well hidden in the ELZ, which is why many guardians run around aimlessly during the chest phase, hoping to stumble upon a chest.

This is the chest map: The locations of the chests have now been compiled and clearly displayed on a map on reddit. We embed the map here:

destiny 2 elz map

No more wandering around

Here’s how to read the map: At the bottom center is the spawn area from where you enter the ELZ. Use this as a reference point. Chests are marked on the map with red symbols:

  • The diamond symbol means that the chest is on the ground
  • The triangle symbol means that the chest is not on the ground but located somewhere higher, such as on a roof or in a higher floor.

What’s the deal with the chests? Depending on how many mini-bosses you defeat in an ELZ match, a certain number of chests will spawn after the boss phase. The locations are only shown for a short period. You need to remember in which directions you can run for the chests and then search in those areas.

With the map above, searching for you should be significantly easier now. The reddit post has already received around 4,000 upvotes. People are thankful for the work put into this map and are glad they don’t have to wander around anymore.

What’s inside the chests? When you open the chests, you will receive Solstice packages and key fragments that you can use to open the packages. These mainly contain materials and blue items. However, you can find out why you should hoard the Solstice packages for now here:

This is how the new FIFA 20 career is: Fans celebrate this change

In FIFA 20, there are the first reactions to the career mode changes. Many fans are satisfied, while others express criticism. One change is especially well received.

This is what it’s about: Yesterday, on August 7th, EA Sports unveiled the most important innovations in the career mode of FIFA 20. These include a

  • comprehensive manager customization,
  • a new morale management
  • and a dynamic player potential.

We present all career innovations here in detail in German.

For many players, the career mode represents the most important mode in FIFA, which is why they were eagerly awaiting the new information about the FIFA 20 career. These should decisively influence their purchasing decisions. And after the career information took a long time to arrive, with expectations rising in the meantime, many fans reacted with: “What, is that all?”

fifa 20 career mode

“So much money for a new UI color”

This is what is criticized about the career changes: On reddit and in the comment sections on social media, thousands of players have already expressed their first opinions. The biggest criticism is that fans expected more. The scope of the innovations seems rather limited so far.

“To be honest, the career mode needs a complete overhaul. Hundreds of changes are necessary. I think it could be something fantastic, but…”, writes one user, referring to the fact that EA Sports has invested almost all resources into FUT for years while the career mode has been neglected.

On reddit, one user criticizes that EA Sports demands full price for a game that has only repainted the user interface color in career mode. He points to this image that EA Sports showed:

fifa 20 career screenshot

Other users agree: “Yes, the innovations are so disappointing” or “These features are unnecessary.”

Many fans also list innovations they would have preferred, such as an online career mode or finally realistic work with sponsors. We have summarized many career wishes here.

Some comments criticizing the new manager customization for allowing the selection of a woman for the first time were quite ugly. Corey Andress, the Community Global Franchise Lead, commented on Twitter about this. Some comments are “quite disgusting,” he writes, adding that these will be immediately blocked.

In FIFA 20, you can be a female manager

And one user jibes that he can hardly wait to play with Piemonte Calcio in career mode. This is a reference to the fact that Konami secured exclusive rights to Juventus Turin, forcing EA Sports to rename the club to FIFA 20 in Piemonte Calcio.

In the comments under our article about the career changes, there are also critical remarks:

  • Koro. writes that unfortunately, nothing groundbreaking is included again and that they didn’t listen to the community.
  • Vorstopper also writes that there is so much more possible.
  • And Chiefryddmz jokes: “I’m slowly realizing why they held these innovations back for so long.”

However, alongside this criticism, there is also a lot of praise. On reddit, the top comments are even mostly positive. Especially one change is well received.

fifa 20 career manager

“The dynamic potential will make the career unique”

This change is celebrated: The dynamic potential is particularly well received. It means: The better a talent plays on the pitch, the higher its potential can grow. However, if the talent plays poorly or does not get match practice, the potential decreases. This way, you can achieve a higher potential and therefore a higher overall rating for your talents through good performances.

Fans are excited that this innovation can make the career unique. Because now, you don’t have to choose the usual talents with the highest potential that everyone else takes, but you can develop your own star players.

Some users write that this is the only interesting innovation. The manager customization might be interesting for 10 minutes, and the new press conferences will likely become rather boring and repetitive over time, they speculate.

In contrast, with the dynamic potential, you have a feature with which you can consistently bring new talents into the limelight, which is definitely a good innovation.

fifa 20 sancho

It’s not that bad – is it?

Additionally, some players emphasize that EA Sports has definitely listened to the community with these features. Manager customizations and a comprehensive morale system were high on many wish lists. And just because many wishes did not come true, one should not belittle these innovations.

Finally, some joke that one must be satisfied that there are at least notable innovations in the career mode. This was not a given in the last few FIFA years.

In the MeinMMO comments, there are also positive voices:

  • Psycheater writes: “Yes, cool, it sounds really good with the improvements.”
  • And Manuel6584 believes that it is fundamentally an interesting expansion. But he hopes that this isn’t all.

If you now want to search for top talents whose potential you can then boost, you can find them here:

Players of Borderlands 3 on the PS4 Pro must choose between graphics and performance

PS4 players of Borderlands 3 are facing a small dilemma. Do they want fancy graphics or a high frame rate?

There are only a few weeks left until the fans of the planet Pandora can finally dive into the new Borderlands 3. In the lead-up, more and more details about the game are being released, including some graphics settings and adjustments that players can make. This mainly concerns players on the PlayStation 4 Pro, as they have to make a difficult choice.

Borderlands-3-FL4K

This selection will be available: In a conversation with the PlayStation Blog, Gearbox explained that there is a choice for players on the more powerful PS4 Pro, namely the choice between two different graphics settings:

  • Best possible resolution (Favor Resolution)
  • Best possible performance (Favor Performance)

This changes the representation of Borderlands 3 on the PS4 Pro drastically.

This is what “Favor Resolution” does: In this mode, Borderlands always tries to achieve the best possible resolution at the expense of performance. Positively, this means that the resolution can go up to 4K, allowing for sharp images. Negatively, it means that the frame rate is limited to a maximum of 30 frames per second.

This is what “Favor Performance” does: Those who opt for the best possible performance will experience a frame rate of up to 60 frames per second, resulting in a much smoother gameplay experience. However, this comes at the expense of resolution, which is then somewhat reduced. Graphical effects may not be as impressively sharp, but the chance of stuttering is low, even when a lot of action is on the screen.

Such graphics settings are rather unusual on consoles – normally, they are only found on PCs.

Whether such settings will also be available for the Xbox One X is not yet known, but it seems possible.

Do you think it’s good that developers offer such settings and options? Or is this kind of “nonsense” that one does not want to deal with exactly the reason why one buys a console at all?

Pokémon GO: Community Day in September with Chelast and these bonuses

In September, the Community Day of Pokémon GO revolves around Chelast. We will tell you everything about the Shinies, bonuses, and start times.

In September, we can expect the first Pokémon from the 4th generation at a Community Day. The plant starter Chelast will be coming.

Additionally, there will again be bonuses to round out the Community Day. Here, we provide you with an overview.

Community Day in September – Bonuses and Date

When is the Community Event? For this Community Day, we will have to be patient. Only on September 15th, a Sunday, it will take place.

Niantic is returning to the old times and will run the event from 11 AM to 2 PM. The Community Day will no longer extend into the evening hours.

These bonuses will be available at the Community Day

What bonuses are available? Many players will be pleased, as this time there will be more Stardust again, after there was surprisingly a different bonus in August. You can find all the bonuses here:

  • Triple Stardust when catching Pokémon
  • Lure modules last for 3 hours
  • More Chelast will appear in the wild
  • An exclusive move (presumably for Chelterrar) will be announced later

Is there any information about the move yet? It is likely to be Flora Statue. This move could be learned by all plant starters on Community Days.

Flora Statue would significantly strengthen Chelterrar and would be a good choice for the plant Pokémon. However, it is not yet confirmed.

Will there be a Shiny Chelast? As on every Community Day, there will also be the shiny form of the event Pokémon here. Chelast is turquoise instead of green. You can easily recognize it.

What are the chances of getting a Shiny? This chance is significantly increased. So during the event it will be about 1 in 25. In comparison, the normal shiny chance for Pokémon in the wild is 1 in 450.

Many fans currently wish for a Pokémon Center. Do you as well?
