Auf diesen gewaltigen Trägerschiffen könnt Ihr in Elite Dangerous ab Dezember landen

Sven Galitzki Sven Galitzki Reading time 3 minutes

At a fan event, the developers from Frontier Developments revealed what major content to expect in Elite Dangerous later this year. They are fulfilling a big wish for numerous fans – as massive fleet carriers are also included. This is the first time there are in-game footage of them.

What are fleet carriers? Fleet carriers are massive space colossi, so large that you can land your much smaller ships on (and/or in) them.

These giants are expected to be added to Elite Dangerous as part of an update in December 2019. While no further details on their features or functionalities have been provided yet, those are expected to follow soon. Additionally, in-game footage of the fleet carriers has now been shown for the first time.

Here you can admire such a fleet carrier:

That’s why so many fans are excited about this feature: Numerous players are pleased with this announcement. Capital ships or fleet carriers are at the top of the fans’ wish list alongside spacewalks, ships or stations, and landing on planets with an atmosphere.

Many have called for larger playable or controllable ships for some time, which can also be used as a kind of mobile or forward base for regular space sleds far from any civilization. This wish seems to finally be coming true in December.

What to expect by the end of 2019 in Elite Dangerous

The fleet carriers are not the only thing fans of the space game can look forward to.

Mining in Elite Dangerous

Before the December update in September, several new features are planned to come to the game, including:

A new tutorial: A new tutorial is intended to enhance the “in-ship experience” right at the beginning of the game. While some measures have already been taken this year for better accessibility of the game it was apparently just the beginning.

New players are to be guided more closely at the beginning of their careers. Beginners are placed in a loaned Sidewinder and complete essential basic training with the guidance of a flight instructor, including a final examination – already in the game and not in a segregated and fragmented tutorial.

Elite Dangerous earth like

It is hoped that this will provide new players with a more exciting, entertaining, and clearer entry into the world of Elite Dangerous. This is also something many (also potential) players have wished for themselves as well as for others. By the way: Veterans will also be able to access the “flight school” if they want to refresh their skills.

Revamping the premium currency: Frontier Points for consoles will become Arx in September – across all platforms.

This is intended to unify the shop experience everywhere. With this currency, numerous (exclusively) cosmetic items can be purchased through the Frontier Store.

While Frontier Points could previously only be purchased with real money, starting in September, Arx can also be earned in-game. It will thus be possible to obtain additional optional customization options solely through gameplay.

Additionally, it will then be possible to apply or change these cosmetics from the ship menu. You will no longer have to visit a station for that.

What comes next? According to Frontier, a massive update is scheduled for 2020 – with the largest impact on the game to date.

Many players are expecting the Space Legs, as rumors also suggest that. This is a feature that allows players to move freely inside their spaceships or aboard a station. Spacewalks are also included.

What do you think of the upcoming changes? Are you excited about the fleet carriers?

Destiny 2: How to effectively use the exotic hand cannon Lumina in PvP

Micha Deckert Micha Deckert Reading time 3 minutes

In Destiny 2, many players are currently occupied with the quest for the new exotic hand cannon Lumina. The weapon impresses especially in PvE with its healing capabilities and buffs. However, in PvP, the Lumina can also make a significant impact when combined with other weapons, as Guardians gradually find out.

What is Lumina? The new exotic hand cannon Lumina was introduced with the Weekly Reset on July 2 in Destiny 2. The weapon is tied to a quest available to all Annual Pass owners.

The Lumina is an exotic hand cannon with 150 RPM, which is equipped in the Kinetic slot. Kills with the weapon leave a kind of sphere that converts into “Noble Rounds” when collected. You can stack up to five shots, which heal and buff allies when shot from the hip.

The healing restores about 3/4 of health, after which health regeneration begins immediately. Additionally, weapon damage is increased for you and the hit Guardian by about 20% in PvP and +35% in PvE for ten seconds.

What about Lumina in PvP? While the Lumina performs well in PvE, its effectiveness in the Crucible has been debated for a long time. What’s the point of having a weapon that can heal when the goal is to eliminate opposing Guardians as quickly as possible?

We also confirmed that the Lumina is a solid weapon in PvP, but it is highly situational and depends on the composition in which you are set up in the Crucible.

However, the Destiny 2 community is undeterred and continues to test new combinations of weapons that, together with Lumina, can dominate in PvP.

How can Lumina be used in PvP? Players can especially benefit from the Lumina in PvP when they have a team member utilizing the weapon. However, effective weapon combinations have already been found for Guardians carrying the exotic hand cannon themselves.

The “simplest” combination for team players is Sturm and Drang together with a teammate using Lumina. The duo Sturm and Drang was recently buffed just before Season 7 and is particularly strong when paired. The perk “Sturm und Stress” causes kills with Drang to reload Sturm and allow a bonus damage round to overflow into the magazine.

Pairing the bonus damage round with the damage buff from Lumina, opposing Guardians can be taken out with just one shot. Players on Reddit have reported eliminating an entire enemy team with just one magazine using Sturm and Drang along with the Lumina buff.

Sturm und Drang can be pulled out of the vault in Season 7

Team players are also expected to have a lot of fun with the exotic bow Le Monarque. However, you will also need a second Guardian to apply the Lumina buff on you. Here, one shot is said to be sufficient to eliminate opposing players.

However, pay attention to ensuring it is a precision shot when multiple Guardians are clustered together: The perk “Poison Arrows” from the bow ensures that arrows fired directly after full draw become poison arrows. Precision shots with poison arrows will also poison nearby enemies.

The exotic bow Le Monarque, obtainable with the Black Armory

Solo players should try Lumina once with the hand cannon Slim Edge. The weapon not only has heartbreaking lore but is also equipped in the Energy slot. With Lumina’s buff, Slim Edge should be able to take out even the strongest Guardian in PvP with just two shots.

For Slim Edge, the community recommends the following perks: Fixed Draw and Rampage or Fixed Draw and First Shot.

Hunters can further improve their performance with hand cannons using the exotic leg armor Lucky Pants. The perk “Illegal Enhanced Holster” ensures that precision hits load a bullet into the chamber of stowed hand cannons. Hand cannons are also readier and more accurate immediately after they are selected.

Are you using Lumina in PvP? Have you found other combinations that effectively eliminate opposing Guardians in the Crucible with the new hand cannon?

Teamfight Tactics: This is why Pyke dominates and how to play him

Alexander Leitsch Alexander Leitsch Reading time 3 minutes

In LoL Auto Chess, Teamfight Tactics, a new and strong combo has emerged. At the center are the champion Pyke and the item Spear of Shojin.

What makes Pyke so strong? Pyke is a pirate and assassin. His skill allows him to glide through enemies. When his shadow then follows him, he stuns the enemies he has glided through.

The special thing is that Pyke is invulnerable while gliding from his position to the new one. Afterwards, the item Spear of Shojin comes into play.

Spear of Shojin strong on Pyke

What does the Spear of Shojin do? After the champion equips it uses their skill, they regain 15% of their mana per attack through the Spear of Shojin. The Spear consists of the items Giant’s Blade and Tear of the Goddess, as you can see in the Item Cheat Sheet for Teamfight Tactics.

The Spear of Shojin is currently one of the strongest in the game, especially because it quickly provides magical champions with the mana they need to unleash their abilities. Pyke also benefits greatly from it.

How does the fight with Pyke look? Currently, items can be stacked in Teamfight Tactics, allowing Pyke to have a second Spear. This way, he can have full mana again after two attacks and use his skill again.

In a typical team fight, Pyke attacks twice, and from that point on, he is nearly invulnerable. He glides through enemies, stuns them, uses the time to recharge his mana, glides through enemies again, and stuns them again.

Depending on the position of the champions, Pyke could almost live indefinitely. Additionally, he provides good crowd control, benefiting the entire group.

LoL Teamfight Tactics Auto Chess

Pyke works well with these combos

What items should I give Pyke? Besides the Spear of Shojin, Pyke also loves the Phantom Dancer. This item allows Pyke to automatically evade all critical hits.

Ranged champions are his biggest weakness, as they usually do not get hit by his stun when there are still melee champions alive. However, since critical damage is often stacked on them, Pyke can survive easily.

Otherwise, Pyke likes offensive weapons like Guinsoo’s Rageblade or Hextech Gunblade, as these also deal magical damage.

Which champions fit Pyke? Pyke is an assassin and thus enjoys the bonus for assassins. It’s best to collect all assassins, as you need six, and there are only seven in total.

The Assassin combo was already popular even without the knowledge about Pyke and the Spear of Shojin.

This setup also includes the robot Blitzcrank well. He pulls the farthest character to him, usually taking them out of the game. Additionally, he creates a gap for assassins to jump in.

Pyke himself is also a pirate, which can provide additional gold, especially in the early game. With Graves (Tier 1) and Gangplank (Tier 3) on the team, Pyke gives you extra gold.

This combination will soon be easier as a new pirate champion has been released on the PBE.

Since many pirates are gunslingers, this is also a possible combination that Pyke harmonizes with.

Pyke can take on the role of a hyper-carry. However, the best player in the world focuses on another champion:

Is the maximum level in Pokémon GO being increased? – We asked Niantic

Noah Struthoff Noah Struthoff Reading time 2 minutes

In Pokémon GO, the increase of the maximum level is desired by many players. We asked Niantic why the level has not yet been increased and what problems there are.

During the GO Fests in Dortmund, we had the opportunity at MeinMMO to interview two game designers from Niantic, Laura Warner and Matt Ein. We asked them, among other things, about the increase of the maximum level and what problems are associated with it.

Increase Maximum Level in Pokémon GO – These Problems Exist

What does Niantic say about it? The developers are aware of the wish of many players for an increase. However, they also mention problems that they currently face and need to overcome.

The increase is definitely on the table; they just need to see how they can implement this feature.

Pokémon GO Ascension Reward
Level 40 could soon be history as the maximum level.

What problem exists? Niantic wants to set the maximum level so that not every player reaches it immediately, but that everyone has something to do.

On the other hand, they don’t want to set it so high that casual players have no chance of reaching it. A good middle ground has to be found, and that is exactly what Niantic is currently working on.

So can we expect an increase? Niantic did not confirm it in the conversation with us, but they also did not deny it. They want to explore new ways of leveling up.

Is XP after level 40 worthless? We also asked Niantic this question. They said that collecting XP after level 40 still has value and one should not stop. However, Niantic did not reveal how exactly these millions of XP will be important for the later maximum level.

100 million XP
XP after level 40 is likely still important.

What does this mean for the players? It is now definitely known that an increase is being considered at Niantic. However, it can be quite possible that leveling in Pokémon GO will soon be revolutionized, because it is hardly conceivable that Niantic will find a way to offer both casual players a maximum level they can reach and extreme players.

However, during our conversation, it did not sound like Niantic would simply introduce a new cap on XP and let players level up freely; rather, they seem to come up with something new, provided they actually increase the level at all.

What do you think? How could Niantic introduce a fair level increase?

His father took him out of school and bought him $30,000 worth of gaming equipment. Currently, he is on his way to becoming a professional player in the online shooter Fortnite.

What kind of father is this? The Boston Globe tells a story about Dave Herzog, a 49-year-old entrepreneur, and his 16-year-old son Jordan.

Dave Herzog says,

  • he was one of the top 15 sellers in the world on eBay years ago.
  • He was one of the first in the USA to drive a Tesla.
  • Currently, he runs a company that produces video game merchandise and clothing, which is also doing very well.

Herzog sees himself as someone who anticipates things. According to him, he foresaw the rise of eSports before anyone else.
