Head of cult RPG studio: “Google Stadia is more interesting than PS5 and Xbox Scarlett”

Benedict Grothaus 7. July 2019 Reading time 3 minutes

Google Stadia will open up entirely new possibilities. The head of the cult RPG studio Larian, Swen Vincke, is sure of that. For him, Google’s new streaming service is more exciting than the next-gen consoles PlayStation 5 and Xbox Scarlett. The man behind Baldur’s Gate also talks about what is possible for developers – and how Google Stadia will initiate a development.

Why is Stadia more interesting than PS5 and Scarlett? As “next-gen” consoles, Xbox Scarlett and PlayStation 5 aim to provide a new gaming experience. SSDs are supposed to help reduce loading times, among other things.

According to Swen Vincke, one of the minds behind Baldur’s Gate 3, this is not such a big step for gaming overall.

In an interview with wccftech, he stated that PC gamers have had SSDs for a long time. Stadia, on the other hand, has something that no system has been able to offer a developer before:

It offers developers something different [new]. In the data centers, the devices are connected to each other, and you can think about something like “elastic rendering.” Like: pack a few servers together and let them simulate physics that are not possible on local hardware.

A technology like Stadia goes far beyond the capabilities of home devices like desktop PCs or consoles.

What makes Stadia stronger than PlayStation 5 and Xbox Scarlett?

This is what the Stadia head says: Around the presentation of Google Stadia, Stadia head Phil Harrison explained what makes Stadia so interesting for developers. He highlighted a major advantage that no other platform has been able to offer so far:

If you have nearly unlimited computing power available in a data center to support your game design and ambitions […] then there are things you can do within this center that would never be possible on a standalone device.

Basically, this means that Stadia offers a developer a completely open playground where they can unleash themselves and create the most elaborate things.

Players themselves don’t need computing power – Stadia basically provides them with the gaming PC. They just need the receiving device for streaming and an internet connection.

How will gaming change in the near future? According to Vincke, one can expect to see “a lot of developments in this direction” in the future.

Subscription models like that of Stadia or comparable ones like the Xbox Game Pass are on the rise.

However, Vincke himself is not sure if that is a good thing:

The only ones who will benefit from a subscription model are really big blockbusters. I’m not sure that small [studios] will achieve a breakthrough with the services because they are super dependent on the provider of the model and what they offer on their front page. I don’t think it’s a good idea to leave all the power in the hands of a few key figures.

Whether and how the market will develop in this direction remains to be seen. At least Microsoft and Sony are already working to compete with Google:

League of Legends: Faker achieves spectacular play against the LoL world champion

Schuhmann 7. July 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

Korean player Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok is considered a dominant player of the League of Legends of the last decade. However, his star seemed to be fading. Now he makes a spectacular comeback in LoL, especially against the reigning world champions Invictus Gaming.

What kind of play is this? The match is between the Koreans of SKT Telecom and the Chinese Invictus Gaming, who are regarded as the best LoL team in the world.

The game is already advanced. After 34 minutes, most players are around level 16. The Chinese team leads with 12 to 7 kills and is attacking SKT1’s base. It looks like a 4 vs 3 in favor of the Chinese.

At the beginning of the fight, Camille from SKT1 goes down quickly. Then Faker (23) enters the fight with the champ Azir. He charges from behind into the backline of Invictus Gaming and dismantles it piece by piece.

While the feared carry from Invictus Gaming, JackeyLove, is getting kills from SKT1 with Kai’Sa, Faker clears out the attackers.

Faker takes out the opposing Lux, while SKT Jungler Clid previously eliminates Taliyah, who Faker served to him. The heroine Taliyah is played by Rookie, who was also one of the greats at the World Championship.

Sylas from Invictus Gaming can only hold on briefly with the stop-watch until Faker takes him down. In the end, the ADC JackeyLove is caught while trying to escape, and Faker turns a teamfight that seemed already lost for SKT1. The fight ends with a 4:3 for SKT1. Faker secures 3 kills.

However, SKT1 could not turn the match anymore. After 42 minutes, Invictus Gaming won. On Reddit, people analyze: SKT1 still has a problem on the top lane:

Khan on Camille played 0-6-6 here. His counterpart “TheShy” is regarded as an exceptional player on the top lane.
Even Faker’s 7-3-3 didn’t help much.

von Schuhmann

This is why the clip is special: Faker shows that he still has it and plays exceptionally well against the 2018 World Championship team. SKT1 was not present at the World Championship – they could not qualify. And the tournament was painfully disappointing for Korea.

The clip is seen by LoL fans as a sign that Faker and SKT1 can still play high-level League of Legends. The clip has now reached 278,905 views.

In the chat, people are shouting “Faker 1vs9” – “The King is back” or “Faker the Savior.” The casters also get more and more excited as the clip progresses.

In LoL, a duel between Faker and JackeyLove is roughly equivalent to a football match between Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.

However, this year, Faker seems to have another tough battle for the crown. The team currently has problems and stands with 3-5 in 7th place in the Korean LCK league.

Destiny 2 Shadowkeep shows exotic weapon that shoots with ancient insects

Micha Deckert 7. July 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

At the Guardian Con, Bungie revealed some small details this week about the upcoming expansion for Destiny 2, Shadowkeep. At the event, a replica of a new weapon was shown, which will be introduced with the Season of Dawn. The heavy machine gun does not yet have a name, but it has a great gimmick: its energy apparently comes from an old insect trapped in amber.

What kind of weapon is this? This weekend, the Guardian Con is taking place, where several developers from Bungie are also present. The Guardian Con is a community and fundraising event that was started in 2015 by some Destiny streamers.

At the event, Bungie also wanted to reveal some details about the upcoming expansion Shadowkeep and they delivered: A real model of a weapon was specially made to present it to the players.

The new weapon is said to be an exotic heavy machine gun that offers a rather quirky detail: it seems to be powered by an insect trapped in amber.

This is not the first model of a weapon from Destiny 2: in 2017, the wrestler The Big Show received a model of the Cold Heart. By the way, Big Show was also present this weekend and distributed raid belts for the World Firsts.

What does the weapon look like? Not much is known about the weapon yet, and it doesn’t seem to have a name either. It has also not been revealed how players can obtain this monstrosity in the Season of Dawn.

However, according to the model, the weapon is quite a hefty piece. In the middle, there is an opening where the ammo belt goes in. This is probably done through a flap that opens on the model and also reveals the “battery”: Behind the ammo belt is a device in which an amber is clamped. In the amber, a large, alien-like insect is trapped. The amber and the weapon are connected via hoses and cables.

It is still unknown whether the weapon behaves the same way in the game and whether players can also see the “drive” of the MG in Destiny 2. But with such a quirky gimmick, it is to be expected that it will also occur in the game and be visible in some way.

What else was there from the Guardian Con? Previously, there was already discussion at the Guardian Con about the four seasons of Season of Dawn. The first season will be called “Season of the Undying” and will not only take place on the Moon but will also bring Vex invasions throughout the solar system.

In addition, the first moving images of the new moon were shown. The story of the upcoming expansion will take place on the Earth’s satellite. Appearances will also feature Eris Morn and the Black Garden.

Fortnite: Fortbyte #40 with the Demi outfit on the sundial in the desert

Benedict Grothaus 7. July 2019 Reading time 3 minutes

In Fortnite: Battle Royale you can now find Fortbyte #40. However, you can only get this Fortbyte if you wear a specific outfit, which you must first unlock.

Where is the Fortbyte? According to the description in the game, Fortbyte number 40 is “on a sundial in the desert.” The location is somewhat hidden, and you need to equip the “Demi Outfit” to access it.

Get Fortbyte Number 40 with the Demi Outfit on a Sundial

Here’s how you can collect the Fortbyte: The byte is located on a small plateau where some objects have been arranged to form a kind of sundial. However, simply landing there is not enough. To collect the Fortbyte, you need to wear the “Demi” outfit.

You will receive the outfit at level 87 in the current Battle Pass of Season 9. So, you will need to level up for quite some time before you can get Fortbyte number 40.

Is there a video? We have embedded the video from YouTuber WohltatTV below for you. He briefly shows you in moving images where you need to land and how to get the Fortbyte.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxYx_SuPl-E

What are Fortbytes and how do you collect them all? Fortbytes are a new mechanic in Fortnite. Every day, you can collect one of these pieces to later assemble them into a secret bonus image. As a reward for collecting 90 Fortbytes, the Utopia Skin from Season 9 is revealed.

Here we have an overview of all previously released Fortbytes for you:

The Division 2 film is coming exclusively to Netflix – agents are dropping some nasty lines

Schuhmann 7. July 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

A film based on The Division is set to premiere exclusively on Netflix. With top stars Jake Gyllenhaal and Jessica Chastain, the film boasts a prominent cast. The agents from The Division 2 are already making jokes at the film’s expense.

This is what Ubisoft says: They say that the film for “The Division” has a director, writers, and now a home, thanks to Netflix. The film will come exclusively to the streaming platform Netflix.

Ubisoft had already announced the film in June 2016.

More on the topic

Star director wants to break the “video game curse” with The Division movie

von Irina Moritz

These are the people involved:

The director is David Leitch (Deadpool 2, Atomic Blonde, The Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs&Shaw)
Writer will be Rafe Judkins (Agents of Shield, The Wheel of Time)
Lead actor is Jake Gyllenhaal (Source Code, Nightcrawler, End of Watch, Prince of Persia)
Lead actress will be Jessica Chastain (Zero Dark Thirty, A Most Violent Year, Interstellar).

This is what is known about the plot: Ubisoft says that the film takes place in a “near future,” where a virus spread through cash on Black Friday. The virus has killed millions of people in New York City.

If civilization has any hope of not descending into chaos, it will be up to the “Division”, a group of highly trained civilians, to save what is left of humanity.

The best quotes from the agents at the film’s expense

Here are the agents’ quotes: On Reddit, players are already amusing themselves greatly, even without having seen the film or having more information. They reference many quirks from The Division 1 and 2 and how the film might portray them:

“For half the movie, Gyllenhaal will be rummaging through his inventory and recalibrating things”
“The credits must end with a Delta error.”
“They will nerf his weapons because they are OP”
“10% to 15% of the movie will be waiting on cooldown”
“Half of the film will consist of shooting at a single enemy”
“I bet he plays Alex!”
“It will be that Gyllenhaal reaches level 30, only to find out that friends won’t help him save the world until he has 4 raid badges, 500 gear score, and a bulletproof image.”

When will the film come to Netflix? Neither Ubisoft nor Netflix currently have a date. It is also unknown if filming has already taken place. Gyllenhaal is currently appearing in the new Spider-Man.

The film may still be a while in coming.

Fortnite: Find the small rubber duck from the loading screen – Here’s how it works

Jürgen Horn 7. July 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

The second to last challenge of the 14 Days of Summer event in Fortnite is online. This time you have to find a specific hidden duck. The little rubber duck in Fortnite can only be found if you study a specific beach-themed loading screen or read our guide about it.

Update: As the YouTuber WohltatTV explains in a new video, you apparently need to find a duck at the appropriate location. If there was any confusion, you can find a video with new information here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPq8Dr2rc-s

Update 8.7. 9:56 AM: There was a bug with the task; therefore it is difficult. We will explain how to work around it.

Fortnite: Finding tiny rubber ducks is buggy – Here’s how to do it anyway

von Schuhmann

Original message – This is the challenge: The 13th task of the 14 Days of Summer challenges involves looking for a duck from a loading screen with a shell.

In the image from the challenge with the water balloons, you can see some coordinates in the bottom left. These indicate where you need to go. However, you do not need to have completed the challenge itself.

The location of the little rubber duck from the loading screen

Where can I find the hidden duck? The location shown in the beach title image is located at the very southern part of the map. As seen in the image, the location should be exactly at the intersection of the fields H9, I9, H10, and I10.

Is there also a video? We have embedded an explanatory video from the YouTuber WohltatTV. In it, you will see in detail how to find the hidden duck. Have fun!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NqEiOkZY7c

What is the problem with the task? As always, you also have the problem here that many other players also know where the sought duck is.

And even if there are honorable players who let you search in peace, some mean player takes great pleasure in shooting you while you are searching for the duck on the beach.

So keep a close eye and maybe only head to the duck location when the first dust has settled after landing. This way you have a better chance of success.

What do you get as a reward? If you have completed this task, you will receive fun beach party music for the lobby as a reward. Perfect to bring even more summer party vibes.

All other challenges for the 14 Days of Summer event in Fortnite can be found here:

Apex Legends Season 2 is only moderately performing on Twitch – EA’s stock falls

Schuhmann 7. July 2019 Reading time 3 minutes

Electronic Arts stock dipped 5% on Friday after Twitch viewership numbers were announced. Apparently, the shooter Apex Legends is unable to maintain the highs from February and March as it enters Season 2 in July.

Here’s the news: According to CNBC, Electronic Arts’ stock has dropped 5% on Friday morning.

Between the peak on July 3 ($103.19) and the low on July 5 ($92.01), the stock lost even more value.

What’s the reason? It is believed to be related to the Twitch numbers of Apex Legends, which were revealed on Friday morning. Apex Legends has started Season 2 last week with a major patch, introducing a new legend, Wattson, along with many changes and a new Battle Pass.

While Twitch numbers increased at the start of the season, they could not match the peak in February and March:

In March, Apex Legends had more than 100,000 average viewers per day – in February at launch, the numbers were even significantly higher.
By Wednesday in July, the average dropped to 45,000.

Here’s the realization: Apparently, the market expected that Apex Legends would experience a boom with the start of Season 2, continuing the highs from spring.

Apex Legends ended EA’s “Battlefield 1” crisis on the stock market last spring:

A similar exponential growth was witnessed by Fortnite at the end of 2017/start of 2018. There, the golden age began with Season 3.

More on the topic

Fortnite’s boss says: Apex Legends hasn’t even scratched us

von Jürgen Horn

However, it seems that Apex Legends is not experiencing such explosive growth. At least on Twitch, Season 2 hasn’t brought a significant upswing.

The viewer numbers have doubled, but from a low level.

What’s behind this: It is fascinating how the market reacts to Twitch viewership numbers these days.

If the market expected Apex Legends to have a similar trajectory as Fortnite and be hot during each season launch, that expectation has now been disappointed.

Respawn had announced months ago that they would not follow in the footsteps of Epic and Fortnite.

The big hype surrounding Apex Legends will probably not be triggered by Season 2. It seems clear now that it will not become the “next Fortnite.” The hype from the surprise release in February has faded, and Apex Legends is a good game with its fans, but not a “cultural phenomenon” as it seemed in the first weeks.

Players complain about a lack of new content. The Twitch streamer DrDisrespect once referred to Apex Legends as a demo.

Pokémon GO: You now get this great reward because trainers worldwide have been so diligent

Benedict Grothaus 7. July 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

Professor Willow’s global challenge in Pokémon GO is complete. Countless trainers around the world contributed to provide you with great rewards. But these are only available for a limited time.

What rewards are available? During the GO Fests in Dortmund, each participating team in the challenge was able to unlock a reward. Here’s what was achieved:

Hatching eggs rewards you with triple experience points
Catching Pokémon rewards you with triple experience points
Victories in raids reward you with double experience points
Lucky eggs now last a full hour

Additionally, a raid has been opened for a single day: Entei is back.

Link to the Twitter content

When will I receive the rewards? The period for experience bonuses will begin on July 9 at 10 PM. From then on, you have until July 16 at 10 PM to increase your level further.

The Entei raid will take place for three hours on July 14. The exact start time has not yet been revealed.

What can I expect in the Entei raid?

Here’s how to master the raid: As a pure Fire-type Pokémon, Entei is particularly vulnerable to Water attacks. So pack some Water Pokémon. Rock and Ground Pokémon can also be useful. In our list, we introduce you to the strongest Pokémon by type.

However, you should also pay attention to bringing the right attacks and movesets. The right Pokémon are of little use without the right attacks. In our guide, we detail how to defeat Entei.

Is Entei worth it? Entei is one of the three legendary big cats. Just as such, Entei is a prestige Pokémon that every collector would love to have. However, Entei does not perform well as an attacker.

In our comparison of Raikou, Suicune, and Entei, both Entei and Suicune are rather not usable as attacking Pokémon. However, Entei offers a shiny variant during the three-hour raid. For collectors, that’s a particularly rare piece.

These bonuses are active: While you are in the raid, you continue to benefit from all event bonuses. So if you haven’t reached level 40 yet and are out with friends, you’ll level up a bit faster with the raid.

However, at the same time as the Entei raid, the Mewtwo raid is also active. So be prepared to encounter the Psychic Pokémon multiple times:

2 Fortnite professionals argue on Twitter and one is no longer a pro afterwards

Schuhmann 7. July 2019 Reading time 3 minutes

A Norwegian Fortnite professional from “Eleven Gaming” left his team after the Swiss Fortnite professional Issa shared a racist message from him. The two had been arguing about aim assist in Fortnite on Twitter – apparently, a personal conflict had been simmering for a while.

This is the backstory: The player Issa “Issa” Rahm from the clan “Ghost Gaming” is one of the best European players. He is the partner of the German Fortnite player Liam “Kamo” Fillery. Issa will also compete in the Fortnite World Cup in Solo.

Issa uploaded a video on Twitter on July 2 to demonstrate his skill with the controller in Fortnite. In the matches shown in the video, he competes without aim assist in Fortnite.

https://twitter.com/ghostissa7/status/1146076348697460741

What is going on with aim assist? Many PC players accuse console players of only being good, because aim assist “handles everything” and then magically gets kills. Players only have to aim roughly in the direction of the opponent and then – magic – they rack up kills.

Issa himself says, under every one of his videos stands “l2” – a reference to the almighty aim assist.

More on the topic

A severe exploit shows how strong aim assist with controller is in Fortnite

von Robert Albrecht

Under the video tweet, a discussion arose:

Some said, everyone knows that aim assist is way too strong – no one needs to try to tone that down
Others said, it’s clear that aim assist isn’t that strong, no proof is needed
Some praised Issa for his good aiming
Others said, he plays with Xim

Until then, a normal day on Twitter.

This was the conflict: One player stood out. The Fortnite professional Erik “Bloodx” Guttormsen, a Norwegian, attacked Issa under the video: It’s so sad what has become of Issa. He really thinks Issa should stop talking to people on social media and deal with himself.

It is not really clear where this conflict stems from.

Bloodx said he had been under fire for three days after the incident until he finally gave up.

Ultimately, Bloodx and his team Eleven Gaming parted ways. Bloodx now says he will try to clear his name.

This is what lies behind it: Apparently, there is a shattered friendship behind it. Issa says he stood up for Bloodx, but was then disappointed by him and told him to stay out of his way.

https://twitter.com/ghostissa7/status/1146109775312228352

Clearly, the confrontation over aim assist tipped the scales.

This is already concerning, how a screenshot can end a player’s career because they apparently had a problem with each other. Whether Issa really foresaw the consequences of this tweet seems questionable.

But the word lands like a bomb:

Issa then shared the screenshot of a Discord chat, in which E11 Bloodx used the racist slur starting with “N”. He himself called Bloodx a “Cunt”, also not a nice word.

https://twitter.com/ghostissa7/status/1146105560963698692

What happened next: Bloodx said the screenshot was fake. He is not a racist. He has nothing against black people. He has been linked with a black woman and has a son.

According to Issa, he only posted the screen because Bloodx is one of the “most false people in the community”.

Bloodx said he had been under fire for three days after the incident until he finally gave up.

Warframe Empyrean: Space battles are going to be even bigger than we thought

Micha Deckert 7. July 2019 Reading time 22 minutes

This weekend, the TennoCon took place, the convention for Warframe. The developers revealed some details about upcoming features and content. This includes Empyrean, which allows players to pilot their battleships into space.

What is Empyrean? A part of Empyrean was already presented at the last TennoCon 2018. Back then, it was still called Project Railjack.

Players should be able to fly their own battleships into space and then fight other ships in orbit. An ambitious concept to have large battle ships roaming in Warframe, which can be customized and assembled in their own space dock.

At TennoCon 2019, further details were revealed, indicating that the Empyrean update will be even bigger than originally thought. Numerous features were added, some of which we want to briefly introduce to you.

When is the Empyrean release? A release date for the Empyrean update has not yet been announced. However, the next major expansion for Warframe is expected to be released later in 2019. What you can still expect in Warframe this year can be found here.

Squad Link: Work together with Tennos

What is Squad Link? At the presentation of Empyrean, it was shown how players can collaborate on their tasks in the update. It involved a shield generator that protected an enemy ship. The shield could also be disabled from a battle ship in space, however, it would be easier to do this from the planet.

Players on their battle ships can ask other Tennos for help in the open game worlds of the Plains of Eidolon or Fortuna, and vice versa. Shields can be disrupted or data can be stolen, for example.

Players can customize and upgrade their own ship

How can you customize the ship? Players will be able to customize their ships, the Railjacks, in a space hangar according to their own wishes.

This includes various equipment, such as different weapons, shields, and defensive mechanisms, as well as cosmetic items and colors, just like with the Warframes. Players can also name their Railjacks, which will be displayed on the hull of the ship.

Warframe Empyrean Railjack — The spaceship Railjack, which can be extensively customized

Be space pirates and capture enemy ships

How to infiltrate enemy ships: Players will be able to use their ninja skills typical of Warframe while engaging in large space battles. Enemy ships can be infiltrated by Tennos using their Archwings, mechanical space wings. If you manage to sneak aboard the enemy ship and eliminate the captain, you can even steal the ship.

Kingpins will hunt players

What is the Kingpin system? The Empyrean update introduces a particularly nasty adversary for players with the Kingpin system. The Kuva Lich, who hunts the Tennos, was introduced and is unique to each player.

He knows how he has already been defeated and adapts his strategy accordingly.

In addition to Empyrean, Digital Extremes also announced the new open world Duviri Paradox:

You have decided: Is WoW Patch 8.2 a Hit or a Flop?

Cortyn 7. July 2019 Reading time 4 minutes

The survey results are in. How well is Patch 8.2 from World of Warcraft received by you? We reveal how you decided.

A few days ago, we asked you what Patch 8.2 has done in World of Warcraft. We wanted to find out if the latest update saved Battle for Azeroth or if Blizzard continued to stir your resentment. You actively participated in the survey, and we present the results here.

This is what the positive voices say

Every sixth person is really enjoying it: With 16% of the votes, about every sixth player thinks that Patch 8.2 has turned out really, really well. They are having fun with the game again and are diligently playing the new content waiting in Mechagon and Nazjatar.

This is what Sedor says in our comments:

I’m very satisfied with 8.2. I like the areas, especially in Mechagon I find it good that the rare bosses are rare again. There are daily quests again and there’s simply a lot to do. I’m really looking forward to the new dungeon and the raid. Above all, I want to know how the story continues.

A large part is positively inclined: Some more players (namely 21%) are cautiously optimistic. They believe that while Patch 8.2 does a lot right, it is still a long way until everything in World of Warcraft fits again.

This is what Phinphin says in the comments:

Some things are fundamentally going in the right direction. I find the areas beautiful. I like the essence system and I’m thrilled with the crafting system from Mechagon. For it to be a complete success, however, more needs to come. Because many old issues continue to be carried over in 8.2. Something like a fundamental overhaul of all classes or a revision of the character level system aside. (…)

This is what the negative voices say

Some find 8.2 to be a deterioration: Almost 8% of the votes believe that Patch 8.2 is not an improvement, but rather has added some negative aspects.

This is also how Horteo sees it in our comments:

Rather a flop. The content is once again extremely stretched. Furthermore, the previous content of the addon is devalued. The main problem of WoW: It is a 15-year-old game that has been continuously expanded and would offer a wealth of content. But relevant with version 8.2 are exactly 2 zones, 1 dungeon, and 1 raid.

Only a few strictly negative voices: Only 4% of the votes see it as purely negative. They believe that Azshara’s Ascension has further exacerbated numerous problems in the game and that the heap of annoying elements has continued to grow.

This is what Alex Flash says quite clearly on Facebook:

Too bad about the 13€ it cost me to test 8.2!

Half see it neutrally or don’t play at all

Many view the patch neutrally: One in five finds the patch like all the others: with 19%, nearly one in five players thinks that Patch 8.2 has hardly any notable features and is “just as good or bad as the content before”.

A third don’t play anymore: 32% of the participants in our survey stated that they haven’t given Patch 8.2 a chance at all. They simply do not play World of Warcraft anymore, and they probably don’t care whether the update brought any improvements. Maybe these fans are waiting for WoW: Classic – which is launching in August.

Conclusion: Most playing players are satisfied

In summary, 37% of players believe that Patch 8.2 is “rather positive”.
19% find the patch average, neither particularly good nor bad.
12% regard the patch as bad or believe that it has exacerbated problems.
32% haven’t given the patch a chance at all and do not play it.

The majority of still playing players believes that Patch 8.2 is an improvement. Those who no longer play should perhaps take a look at the new content and form their own impression.

Are you surprised by the results of the survey? Would you have expected a similar or much clearer result?

In Destiny 2, Warlocks are currently asking: “What happened to my butt?”

Micha Deckert 7. July 2019 Reading time 3 minutes

The players of Destiny 2 sometimes discuss the most absurd things. Recently, a Guardian complained on Reddit that his Warlock lost his most precious “asset”: his behind. After a lot of laughter in the post, more Guardians checked and indeed, their Warlocks also had no behind anymore.

What is up with the behinds? In the Destiny subreddit there are many quirky posts where players talk about all sorts of nonsense. In the thread “Is this a bug or has the butt really been removed” which was just a few hours old, the Guardians also first thought it was a joke or a very funny misunderstanding.

The player Karnauxx explained that his Warlock has had no behind since the Season of Opulence. He showed some pictures to illustrate his problem.

The players initially laughed and made fun of the Guardian’s “problem”. But then some Guardians checked for themselves and found that Karnauxx might be right: the Warlock behinds are gone!

When does this “bug” occur? Initially, the Guardians assumed it had something to do with the Transversive Steps, the exotic Warlock boots. With their perk “Strong Stretch Muscle”, they ensure that the character’s sprint speed is increased and the currently equipped weapon is automatically reloaded after a short sprint.

It was primarily with this leg armor that the missing behind was first noticed.

However, more players reported that this problem should occur with several, if not all, Warlock boots.

What do the players say? The post causes general laughter in the Destiny subreddit. Many players had assumed that the title of the post was a translation or spelling mistake. That the creator is actually upset about missing behinds is causing a lot of amusement.

The Guardians also come up with their own jokes. The subtitle of Destiny 2 should now be “Welcome to a world without behinds,” instead of the “Welcome to a world without light” that the shooter was promoted with before the release.

Other Guardians believe that the much sought-after wish 15 from the Last Wish raid is probably meant to wish the Warlocks their behind back. This is not the first strange theory that the Guardians have about the last remaining wish.

With an album, a player even made it clear that female Warlocks have it worse than male ones. Female Warlocks reportedly have no behind anymore, while male representatives at least still have a slight curve.

A reasonable Guardian tried to explain the disappearance of the behinds by suggesting that Bungie probably did this on purpose so that the Warlock behinds would no longer be visible through their clothing. Depending on which bathrobe the Warlocks wore, the behind of the class sometimes clipped through the clothing. In his opinion, Warlocks were simply too “thicc” before.

We need to talk: What is your current stance on MMORPGs?

Irina Moritz 7. July 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

The MMORPG genre is currently in a difficult situation. Many of the new releases in recent years have turned out to be disappointments. Yet the genre still has many fans. What do you think about the current state of MMORPGs?

What is the current situation of MMORPGs? Developing a good MMORPG is not an easy task in our time. The high development costs have brought some good MMORPGs to their knees, especially considering the large flood of various free-to-play games on PC and mobile devices.

Most MMORPGs therefore rely on premium memberships and cash shops for their funding models. The only MMORPGs that still have a real subscription model are World of Warcraft and Final Fantasy XIV.

For 2019, only three new MMORPGs were announced, of which there have been no major updates for a long time. Only with Astellia, which successfully completed the first closed beta test this week, are there significant advancements.

There is still no trace of the Western release of Lost Ark, which is currently considered one of the best Asian MMORPGs.

What is the reputation of modern MMORPGs? Currently, there is no great shortage of MMORPGs. Especially in Asia, for example in Korea, new MMORPGs are regularly announced and then come to us in the West.

However, players no longer trust these MMORPGs. They often give the impression that they are designed to make quick money with microtransactions and cash shops. The quality and quantity of the content often leaves much to be desired.

Especially after the collapse of Bless, many players became very suspicious of announcements of new MMORPGs. Bless was a promising game with a high budget that many players were looking forward to and were greatly disappointed.

Nevertheless, many players still hold on to the genre and participate in beta tests of new MMORPGs. They have their main MMORPG that they can’t let go of or hope for the next big thing that will shake up the market again.

What about you? What do you think about the current state of the MMORPG genre? Have you given up or do you still hold on to MMORPGs? Why? Let us know!

The man behind Dr Disrespect apologizes for Twitch ban: Too much in character

Schuhmann 7. July 2019 Reading time 4 minutes

The character Dr Disrespect is a Twitch star. The man behind it, Guy Beahm, only plays the role of the egomaniac. And he has overstepped his bounds at E3 with the “role-playing,” as he now states in a personal statement, in which he first addresses the Twitch ban.

This is Dr Disrespect: Dr Disrespect is a 6’8″ tall streamer on Twitch with a powerful mustache and an even bigger ego. With 3.4 million followers, he is number 10 on Twitch, and the fans love him.

He is known for his high production quality, his outbursts, and the many running gags.

For him, it’s less about the gameplay, although it’s excellent, but about the show and the entertainment that comes with it.

This is why he was banned: This giant ran through E3 2019 in full combat gear with a bodyguard and cameraman and did an “IRL” stream, broadcasting everything live.

During that, he also visited public restrooms multiple times. His team continued filming from there. Random trade show attendees were seen live on Twitch: a violation of California law. This led to a two-week Twitch ban.

The character itself, Dr Disrespect, takes the Twitch ban lightly. However, the man behind the character seems to be bothered by it.

It’s hard to be the Doctor without hurting people

This is what Guy Beahm says: He says it was his first “IRL” stream, and he tried to stay true to his character “Dr Disrespect.” He wanted to behave authentically, as the Doctor would genuinely do. A character like Dr Disrespect, however, fits very poorly into the conventions of today.

The Doctor is:

edgy
boastful
and very opinionated

He says: The team had no bad intentions; they were just a bit blind when streaming from the bathroom. In the name of the brand “Dr Disrespect,” Guy Beahm wants to apologize.

Bringing gaming entertainment into the mainstream

This is how Guy Beahm sees his success as Dr Disrespect: Guy Beahm takes the opportunity to speak as a real person to reflect on his success as Dr Disrespect. He says he is very happy to have such great support from family, friends, partners, and the community.

He is grateful that people see him as an influential figure in the entertainment sector. Beahm says, “Believe me, I don’t take that for granted. We are working on a lot of things that will hopefully develop the brand and bring gaming entertainment as a whole into the mainstream.”

This is what it’s about: It’s interesting to see Dr Disrespect from the creator’s perspective. For him, it was a balancing act at E3 to be the Doctor without really attacking people or causing chaos everywhere. He likely had difficulty keeping the role in check at all.

He probably won’t let something like this happen again.

Update 7.7.: The apology from Dr Disrespect had a sequel on Twitter. There was trouble with authors from the US site Kotaku.

According to Sony, PS5 will be a “niche product” – Why this is good for us gamers

Sven Galitzki 7. July 2019 Reading time 3 minutes

Sony discusses its future plans for the PlayStation. With its next-gen console PS5, it aims to continue focusing on core gamers and is committed to exclusive AAA titles.

This has always been important to Sony: Sony has always placed great importance on addressing “core gamers,” meaning truly passionate players and fans, with its consoles.

They achieved this not only through excellent third-party support from indie developers as well as renowned AAA publishers, but also with an impressive lineup of in-house PlayStation exclusive titles. This is what set Sony consoles apart for many.

This strategy has proven successful for Sony over the years, and it seems that with the next-gen PlayStation, the PS5, they will pursue the same idea.

von Schuhmann

This is Sony’s strategy for the future with PS5

Where does the information come from? Sony discussed its plans at a recent corporate strategy meeting. The US website The Wall Street Journal reported on it exclusively.

What does Sony plan with the PS5? At this meeting, they understandably also spoke about the PS5. The upcoming console was referred to as a niche product by Sony CEO Kenichiro Yoshida, aimed specifically at the core gamer audience.

For this, they intend to secure deals with major third-party publishers as they did previously. AAA titles with large budgets will clearly take precedence over indie developments, including games like Fallout or Red Dead Redemption.

And even though indie games will continue to receive support, Sony believes that the targeted audience is turning to Sony consoles to play really big and exclusive titles and to experience high-quality gaming.

To supply this audience with the appropriate games, they will also strive to strengthen and expand the exclusive AAA lineup for Sony in the future. In-house studios such as Guerilla Games or Naughty Dog could benefit from this.

Sony and Microsoft collaborate – Is it against Google and Stadia?

von Schuhmann

Why is this good for gamers? Quite simply. Sony will evidently increasingly focus in the future on securing as many major titles and exclusive deals (such as DLCs) for its consoles – including the PS5. There should also be more exclusive titles, which are an important argument for many when purchasing Sony consoles.

In short: In the future, PlayStation will offer more of everything that demanding fans and gamers want. This is the area where Sony intends to intensify its efforts.

Also interesting: According to The Wall Street Journal, not all top executives at Sony are thrilled with Yoshida’s visions. Some have reportedly criticized his strategy for the future of the PlayStation 5 – albeit only internally. Some executives are said to fear that smaller studios and developers could be driven to the competition by this attitude.

What else is known about the PS5? When is the next-gen PlayStation actually supposed to be released? And what can the hardware of the PS5 do? You can find this and other interesting details in this article:

Mobile Survival MMO Durango is so good that it already has more players than ARK

Benedict Grothaus 6. July 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

The survival MMO Durango: Wild Lands shows: Mobile games can also function on a large scale. And they can sometimes attract more players than their cousins on PC or consoles.

Here’s how well Durango is doing: The company behind the mobile survival MMO Durango has announced some new figures (via mmorpg.org.pl). According to these, Durango has had since its launch on May 15, 2019:

over 12,000,000 downloads
is played in 229 countries
has already reached 85,729 concurrent players.

Particularly noteworthy is the number of concurrent players. Therefore, it also ranks among our best survival games for iOS and Android.

If Durango had these numbers on Steam, it would have more concurrent players than the most played survival MMO on Steam, ARK: Survival Evolved. According to Steamcharts, it has 83,446 concurrent players and ranks 7th among the most played games on Steam.

What is Durango: Wild Lands?

Here’s what it’s about: Durango: Wild Lands is a classic survival game that heavily draws from the setting of ARK. You play in a vast world where you can also find and tame dinosaurs. Much like in ARK, you were sent to another world through a “warp gap.”

Some of the key features include:

the selection of a class for your character, which can also be changed while playing
the management of food and water through the cultivation of plants and discovered sources
a well-developed building and crafting system
a PvP mode

Durango is played in an isometric perspective but offers nice and detailed graphics. Behind Durango is the company Nexon, experts in free-to-play games, who have recently been struggling with their sale.

https://youtu.be/TUqQy9YfYWo

For which platforms is Durango available? Durango: Wild Lands is free for both Android devices (starting from Android 4.1) and iOS devices (starting from iOS 9.0).

Here you can find Durango in the Apple App Store (Rating; 3.9/5 stars)
Here you can find Durango in the Google Play Store (Rating: 4.5/5 stars)

Anyone looking for a great and successful survival game for mobile devices should definitely check out Durango. Those who prefer to play on PC, PS4, or Xbox One can find the best survival games for their platform here:

How Anthem is changing its big event Cataclysm at the request of the players

Micha Deckert 6. July 2019 Reading time 3 minutes

BioWare is currently still working on new content for Anthem, such as the Cataclysm. This is still being scrutinized by players on the test server. The developers are reportedly listening closely to what the freelancers want. A new update has introduced improvements on the PTS that have been praised by players.

What is currently happening in Anthem? The developers of Anthem are currently focusing on the Cataclysm, which was presented in the last livestream about the game. It is an eight-week event, with the first two weeks serving as preparation.

The test servers are open to all PC players of Anthem who own the game or are subscribers of Origin Access Premier. Unfortunately, there is no test server for consoles.

What is new about the Cataclysm? When the Cataclysm event was presented, the developers already stated that the visual effects were not yet completed and that they were still working hard on them. Nevertheless, some players were disappointed. They compared the Cataclysm, which should represent a world-changing event, to a feeble tropical storm.

Here, BioWare has made improvements and actually made the Cataclysm stormier. Waves are crashing, visibility is worse, and a wall of fog lies over the map where the event takes place. Additionally, dangerous lightning strikes occur around the players, which are not only visible in the air but also leave their marks on the ground.

Even on the map in Freeplay, something has changed with the Cataclysm, as anomalies appear that announce and accompany the event.

Recently, the fight against the boss Vara was updated on the test server along with further changes and improvements to gameplay, effects, and cinematics.

Anthem Freeplay Anomalie — Strange anomalies related to the Cataclysm can be seen in Freeplay on the PTS. Source: KhrazeGaming YouTube

What is new about the items? Players can earn the currency Crystal during the event, which can be used to purchase the so-called War Chests. These contain new items that are introduced with the Cataclysm.

The amount of crystals that players receive depends on the difficulty and the score achieved. According to YouTuber KhrazeGaming, BioWare adjusted the amount of crystals that players can receive with the last PTS update.

All the items are “best in slot” and will be five points higher than the equipment currently in the game. In one video, some interesting equipment pieces can be seen that have exciting effects.

Such as the legendary grenade Arctic Tomb for the Ranger, an upgrade of the Frost Grenade. This freezes enemies and causes them to explode on combo, freezing additional enemies in the vicinity. The Colossus receives a melee attack that leaves a burning area on the ground.

What else is being tested? The latest tests on the PTS also include the Inversions. These are various modifiers that are used in the Cataclysm event and affect the scoring. With the Broken Magazine modifier, the weapons have no additional ammo, but the drop for ammo is increased. With On the Edge, the four Javelins deal more damage with low armor.

More information about the Inversions and the days they are tested, is available on the EA forum.

What do the players say? In the Anthem subreddit, the mood is still somewhat reserved, but the changes are well received. The visual changes and the new items seem to please the players.

The fact that BioWare is still working on the effects and content and working closely with the community positively resonates with the players.

Fortnite: Fortbyte #83 in a rock garden near the coast

Benedict Grothaus 6. July 2019 Reading time 3 minutes

Fortbyte #83 has appeared in Fortnite: Battle Royale. To get it, you don’t need any special requirements. We will show you exactly how to play it.

Where is the Fortbyte? According to the in-game text, Fortbyte number 83 is located “in a stone garden near the coast.” There is no specific task related to it, and it is quite easy to find. Simply land near the location or make your way there and collect the Fortbyte.

Get the Fortbyte number 83 in the stone garden

Here’s how you can collect the Fortbyte: All you need to do for this challenge to get the Fortbyte is to collect it. Head to the spot between Sunny Steps and Lonely Lodge, which we have marked for you on the map.

There is a stone garden on a cliff by the coast with a small fence. The Fortbyte hovers just above the ground by this fence and behind a small stone structure, and can be collected.

Is there also a video? We will embed a video from the YouTuber WohltatTV here. This shows you in moving images where you can find the Fortbyte from today. Have fun searching!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SvQ8wzEcE4

What are Fortbytes and how do you collect them all? The Fortbytes are small pieces in the shape of a sort of computer chip. Every day, a new Fortbyte appears in Fortnite. Together, they form a secret picture, and when you collect enough, you receive a special skin for Season 9.

Here you can find an overview of all previously released Fortbytes:

Fortnite: Visit beach umbrellas and the rubber duck in a game

Jürgen Horn 6. July 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

Another challenge for the 14-Day Summer Event in Fortnite is here. This time you need to find giant beach umbrellas and rubber ducks on the river in a single match. How to accomplish this, you can find out here.

This is the challenge: The 12th task of the 14-Day Summer Challenges requires you to visit the massive rubber duck and also find a large beach umbrella in the same match. The umbrellas are easy to find, but the duck is a challenge.

All locations of the giant beach umbrellas and how to find the rubber duck

Where are the giant beach umbrellas? The giant beach umbrellas are the easy part of the challenge. You can find them at the following locations on the map:

Southwest of Pleasant Park
The northern island in Lazy Lagoon
On the hill west of Dusty Divot
At the small cliff west of Lonely Lodge
On the hill southwest of Salty Springs, at the edge of the ice biome
At the curve of the road northwest of Paradise Palms

It is sufficient if you reach one of these 6 umbrellas. Once you have reached one, you may also want to complete the task where you need to jump off the umbrella. However, to fulfill the current task, you must not only visit the umbrella, but you also need to reach the giant rubber duck. And that must be in the same match!

Where can I find the giant rubber duck? For the task to count as completed, you also need to visit the giant rubber duck. Unfortunately, it is not so easy to find, as it moves up and down the large river. The river flows from Loot Lake to the south and empties into the sea at Lucky Landing.

The duck is somewhere on the river, so keep an eye out for it from the air. Ideally, you should go to the duck first, then you will have that done, and can then visit the next beach umbrella nearby.

Is there a video for this? We have embedded a video from the YouTuber WohltatTV. In it, you can see in detail how to visit the beach umbrellas and ducks. Enjoy!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cV7nxJ7GnUs

What’s the problem with the task? Since you need to visit the umbrellas and the duck in the same match, the whole plan goes awry if you get shot on the way. So either do the task in a respawn mode or be very careful when you have found the duck and want to visit the nearest umbrella.

What’s the reward? Once you have completed this task, you will receive a back bling in the shape of a cute rubber duck.
