Apex Legends has announced new trailers for Season 2 for this evening. However, they have already been leaked in advance. Season 2 is apparently called “Battle Charge” and it seems we can expect several profound changes that have already been hinted at.
Update: Respawn published a new tweet at 5:55 PM. In this tweet, the first part of the leak is shown as a video, which has already been uploaded. At least this has been confirmed.

Original report – What is seen in the trailers? The trailers briefly show the course of a round in Apex Legends, before a catastrophe breaks out and King’s Canyon is devastated. Octane competes with his team against a group of opponents, and the new legend Wattson is clearly visible, along with her abilities.
During the action, an unknown person is repeatedly seen at a laptop. They attack the island with an EMP, causing the large tower at Repulsor to fall and burying part of the surroundings beneath it.

This apparently has several effects that lead to changes in the map and also attract the wild animals of the land.
How reliable are the leaks? The trailers are quite elaborately designed and do not appear to be fake. Additionally, a scene that is already known from a teaser on Twitter appears exactly as it does in the trailers. So it is likely that these are the correct trailers.

How the map changes: The map apparently changes drastically with Season 2. Apex Legends seems to be taking a page out of Fortnite’s book, where the map also frequently changes due to specific events. This includes several structural changes such as:
the toppled Repulsor tower
several new buildings across the map
the burned forest has blossomed again
there are cages with trapped Pterosaurs, which have been in the game for some time
Additionally, the giant creatures from outside the map are now trampling across the island and are reportedly becoming a real threat. At least they will soon be a part of the map.
The creatures are approaching and apparently reaching the island.
How exactly the map will be remodeled is not yet clear in detail, as only short segments of gameplay with the new features are visible.
What comes with it: However, there are also some new features that will be introduced with Season 2. Additionally, some new features were already known in advance. These include cosmetic changes as well as new legends:
Will there be a new legend? In the trailers, a mysterious person is seen operating a laptop, corresponding to the hints hidden on the map. Fans speculate that this is the legend Crypto.
This laptop from the trailer sparks ideas.
When does Season 2 start? The start date for Season 2 has already been set for July 2, 2019.
With Season 2, not only the map is adjusted. Some changes to weapons have also already been officially revealed:
This Saturday, June 29, the Raikou Day starts in Pokémon GO. We provide you with an overview of counters, shinies, and perfect CP, so you can be fully prepared.
For 3 hours, a legendary raid featuring Raikou will appear at every gym, and you can also encounter it as shiny there. What you need to pay attention to during the event, you will learn here.
Raid Day with Raikou in June – All Info and Bonuses
What: Raid Day with Raikou in June 2019 When: On Saturday, June 29, from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM German time Pokémon of the day: Raikou Bonus: Shiny Raikou comes into the game for the first time Bonus: 5 free raid passes are available
The big Raikou Day is coming!
This is how the Raid Day runs: At exactly 4 PM, a Raikou raid will appear at all gyms that are not currently holding an EX raid. This will last for 3 hours and you can complete as many raids as possible.
At 7 PM, the event will be over. Raikou will disappear from the gyms, and the regular raid bosses will take over again.
Shiny Raikou at the Raid Day
Will there be a Shiny Raikou? Niantic has already confirmed that you will encounter Shiny Raikou for the first time. Therefore, it is worth doing the raids, because afterwards, Raikou will likely disappear from the raids for a while.
This is what Shiny Raikou looks like
How likely is it to get Shiny Raikou? During the last Raid Day with Lapras, the Shiny chance was significantly increased. It was about 1 in 10. Usually, legendary raid bosses have a rate of 1 in 19. So the probability will settle somewhere around here.
How can I complete many raids?
That’s why the raids are worth it: Within the 3 hours, the raids are really worth it, because there is both a new shiny and Raikou is, together with Electivire, the best electric attacker in the game. Candies and good IVs would not be bad here either.
These tips will help you: We provide you with some tips that can help you while playing. This way, you can easily complete more than 30 raids.
Find an area with many gyms
You can only complete many raids with a lot of gyms. So drive to a bigger city if necessary or choose the part of the city that has many gyms.
Plan a good route in advance
Planning is the most important thing. So have a route ready that you can complete. This way, you won’t have to think about it during the event.
Don’t fight the raid boss standing still
As soon as you are in battle, i.e., you don’t have to wait in the lobby for 2 minutes, you can already walk away from the gym. As long as your first battle team is not eliminated, you will stay in battle. So walk to the next gym while you fight.
Don’t waste time throwing
Good throwing increases the catch chance, but if you don’t have a good specimen, it’s advisable to throw the balls without a catch trick. This saves a lot of time, and you will still catch a large part of the Pokémon.
Keep your group small
Many players in a group means a lot of stress. So only be in a small group of 4-5 players. This way, you can quickly defeat every Raikou and will still not be too hindered.
These are the best counters against Raikou
Use these types: Raikou is an electric type, which means it is only vulnerable to ground attacks. So put together your best ground team.
Groudon is the best counter against Raikou
The best counters against Raikou are:
Groudon with Mud Shot and Earthquake
Garchomp with Mud Shot and Earthquake
Rhyperior with Mud Slap and Earthquake
Mamoswine with Mud Slap and Steamroller
Rhydon with Mud Slap and Earthquake
How many people do you need to defeat Raikou? With the right weather and counters, you can defeat Raikou with just two people. However, it is quite tight.
Mamoswine is a good alternative to Groudon
A team of 3-4 players should be able to defeat Raikou well, even if you are at a lower level. The counters are crucial here.
Raikou with 100% IV – These are the CP required
This is how strong Raikou can be in the raid: The maximum CP of Raikou in the raid is 1972 CP. In rainy weather in the game, it even reaches 2466 CP.
If your Raikou from the raid is close to these CP, then it should have good IVs. The further it is away from that, the worse it is.
These items will help you on Raid Day
Always have a Lucky Egg with you. It’s worth it!
Lucky Egg – 6 pieces
Ideally, you should let a Lucky Egg run for the entire 3 hours. After all, you get 20,000 XP per raid. So if you complete 30 raids, that’s 600,000 XP. It’s worth it.
GO Plus
This gadget is particularly important on Raid Day. This way, you can catch Pokémon while battling in raids. With the press of a button, the GO Plus throws exactly one ball at the targeted Pokémon.
In the MMORPG EVE Online there has been the same routine for years: intrigues, betrayal, scams, and huge space battles. Players fight against each other in endless wars and small skirmishes. But now everything is different. The NPC faction “Drifter” suddenly attacks. Many players are excited.
What is going on? Without warning, yesterday, large, powerful fleets of NPCs formed and attacked and killed players in EVE Online. Their structures were destroyed.
The attacks took place all over the world of EVE Online.
A player says on reddit: “No one outside the development team knows what’s going on. Players are currently bustling around.”
This is why it is special: This has never happened before. Normally, the world of EVE Online is quite orderly. Such significant events are announced and discussed well in advance, so that everyone can prepare for them.
This event, this invasion, catches the players unprepared, as it is said on reddit. The attack by the NPCs catches many pilots at an inconvenient time because they were involved in a large PvP war and had left their home bases unprotected.
Nevertheless, the mood seems to be upbeat among many.
Players are impressed that CCP could keep such a big event a secret for so long.
The largest reddit thread on the topic is titled, “Dear CCP, I admire your balls, please don’t lose them.”
The pilot says: This is healthy for the game and it brings movement when the Drifters attack those alliances that have entrenched themselves in their systems. At the moment they seem to be randomly attacking systems.
Because the invasion is unannounced, it is more effective this time. Otherwise, content is often dead because players prepare to keep their influence low.
But EVE Online needs to be dangerous again.
Curious to see where the Drifter invasion leads in the coming days. The pilots are ready.
Today, on June 27th, maintenance work will be carried out on The Division 2 on PS4, Xbox One, and PC – but later than originally planned. The servers will go offline for several hours. Here’s everything about the course of the maintenance and the patch notes.
What is the reason for the delay? Originally, Massive scheduled today’s maintenance for 9:30 AM our time. However, it was postponed at short notice. Unfortunately, we will again have to take offline for a few hours in the afternoon this week. Massive did not reveal why the maintenance was moved to the afternoon.
When exactly will The Division 2 go offline and when can players play again? The official schedule for today’s maintenance is now as follows:
Update: The servers are now back online, so you can play.
The maintenance work will begin today at 3:00 PM. The servers will go offline and you will not be able to log in and play.
The maintenance is scheduled for 3 hours.
If everything goes according to plan, you should be able to play again around 6:00 PM.

Patch addresses further issues from Title Update 4 of The Division 2
What changes today with the patch? In the State of The Game from June 26, some changes were already communicated that agents can expect today. The focus is on further bug fixes from Title Update 4:
A problem will be fixed that allowed the perk of the exotic Dodge City Gunslinger’s Holster to be transferred to another item through recalibration. For all those who did this, the corresponding target item will be returned to its original state.
A problem will be fixed that causes the new Gunner to receive 75 instead of 50 rounds of ammunition with one of his perks on drop.
A problem with the armor of the Basilisk during the Gunner specialization field research (unlocking the Gunner) will be fixed.
What do the patch notes say? The official patch notes for today’s update are also now available. Here’s what’s included:
A problem with the armor of the Basilisk was fixed, which sometimes prevented progress during the Gunner specialization field research (unlocking the Gunner).
A problem was fixed that allowed players to collect unintended high amounts of special ammunition.
A bug was fixed that caused the armor of NPCs to be stronger than intended.
Also interesting: While you are waiting for the end of the server work, you can pass the time with these articles:
With a simple trick, TERA lures its players into the toughest dungeons. There’s a PC worth over €3,000 up for grabs.
The dungeons in TERA are considered quite challenging and are among the most difficult content that players can tackle in the MMORPG with sparse female clothing. To bring the dungeons more into focus for the players, TERA is holding a giveaway in Europe. Together with the manufacturer CORSAIR, there are really big prizes to be won.
What needs to be done? To participate in the giveaway, TERA players just need to play – the Gameforge version of the game. The players must complete the dungeon “Depths of Bathysmal” on “hard”. Those who succeed will automatically enter their name into the draw.
What rewards are there? The grand prize at the event is quite hefty and is bound to make most gamers tear up. It is a CORSAIR ONE i140 Compact Gaming PC, which has a retail price of a staggering €3199.99. Additionally, there’s a headset, keyboard, and TERA merchandise on top. Thus, nothing stands in the way of establishing a new gaming hub in your room.
Apart from the grand prize, there are other prizes that include various CORSAIR items and TERA merchandise. However, the big lure is likely the grand prize.
One can “grind” the event: Conversely, this also means that one can increase their chances by completing the Depths of Bathysmal multiple times on “hard”. Each time, another ticket goes into the pot. So those who invest a lot of time and complete the dungeon dozens of times will drastically increase their chance of winning.
How long do players have? The event started yesterday (June 26) and runs until July 9 at midnight. During this time, you should complete the Depths of Bathysmal as many times as you can.
In-game rewards as a consolation prize: But even those who do not win one of the big prizes should make a trip to the dungeon during the event. At the end of the event, TERA will send all players who have completed the Depths of Bathysmal on hard at least once a small package of items. This contains:
Experience gold
Speed XP potion
a cool hat
“and much more”
Does such giveaways tempt you to spend a lot of time in dungeons? What do you think of this type of giveaway?
Counter these attackers with your Groudon, the new legendary raid boss in Pokémon GO.
In Pokémon GO, you can now find Groudon in raids for a few days. This raid boss oversees various arenas and belongs to Generation 3. In this guide, we show you which Pokémon can deal a lot of damage to the new raid boss.
Groudon Boss Stats
Groudon is a legendary raid boss of level 5. As a boss, it has 49671 WP (CP) and after catching it, a maximum of 2351 WP (CP) – calculation applies to level 20 with perfect IVs. With a weather bonus, it even reaches 2939 WP (CP).
Like the other legendary raid bosses, you cannot defeat Groudon alone. A group of at least 3 trainers with strong Pokémon is needed to take down the monster.
Groudon is a Ground type and therefore has no double weakness. However, Ground-type Pokémon deal 20% more damage in sunny weather.
With Electric-type Pokémon, you have poor chances in this battle. It’s best to use Pokémon with moves of Grass, Water, or Ice types to effectively deal damage to this raid boss.
Groudon’s Attacks
Groudon knows the following attacks in Pokémon GO:
(Fast) Dragon Tail – Type: Dragon
(Fast) Mud Shot – Type: Ground
(Charge) Fire Blast – Type: Fire
(Charge) Solar Beam – Type: Grass
(Charge) Earthquake – Type: Ground
Groudon Raid Counters
To counter Groudon in battle, there are many monsters available to you. As already explained, it is vulnerable to Grass, Water, or Ice attacks. Top attackers include Kyogre and Roserade. If Groudon has Solar Beam as an attack, then rely especially on Grass Pokémon or Gyarados.
Counter Pokémon for Groudon
Kyogre with a Moveset of Cascade and Hydro Pump
Gyarados with a Moveset of Cascade and Hydro Pump
Mewtwo with a Moveset of Psycho Cut and Ice Beam
Roserade with a Moveset of Razor Leaf and Solar Beam
Feraligatr with a Moveset of Cascade and Hydro Cannon
Palkia with a Moveset of Dragon Tail and Hydro Pump
Tangrowth with a Moveset of Vine Whip and Solar Beam
Glaceon with a Moveset of Ice Shard and Avalanche
Venusaur with a Moveset of Vine Whip and Flora Statue
Update: We updated the article on June 27 for you. Groudon is now in the game for a few days and can also be found as Shiny.
A security firm discovered a security vulnerability at Electronic Arts. Hackers could have gained access to 300 million gamer accounts through the Origin platform to do malicious things. This affects games like Anthem, FIFA 19, Battlefield 5, or The Sims. EA is said to have closed the gap.
Where does this information come from? It comes from security experts, Check Point Research (Via research.checkpoint). They collaborated with CyberInt in this case.
They pretend to be hackers themselves, looking for vulnerabilities in the major infrastructures at companies. They penetrate systems and see how far hackers could get if they were serious and what resistance they would encounter.
They say: Due to a security vulnerability at Origin, attackers could hack millions of accounts. The villains would then have been able to access credit card information and make fraudulent purchases.
Through Origin, up to 300 million gamers use numerous online games from EA like FIFA 19, Madden NFL, NBA Live, Anthem, or The Sims.
This kind of vulnerability theoretically affects many people worldwide.
This is how a fake page would have looked, through which data could have been harvested, according to security experts.
This is how EA reacted: According to Check Point Research, they informed Electronic Arts about this vulnerability before making it public and helped EA close the security gaps.
The testers noticed that certain retired services at EA still exist that are no longer used but still function. Thus, they could take over the subdomain “eaplayinvite” and then see requests from “real users”.
From this foothold, the team began dismantling EA’s security measures and pushing further into the system.
Ultimately, they were able to redirect “real EA players” to fake websites and thus could have harvested the data.

However, the clocks are not easy to find, which is why we will show you the locations of the 3 clocks here.
Update June 28: The large clock tower in Happy Hamlet does not count towards the Fortnite task. However, a large clock at Fatal Fields works.
3 different clocks in Fortnite – Where should I search?
Where are the clocks hidden? All 3 clocks look different. However, they are all quite large, so you can’t miss them.
These are the 3 locations where the clocks are hidden
The clocks are hidden at 3 different locations:
A broken clock in Junk Junction
A digital clock in Neo Tilted
A scrap clock at Fatal Fields
Where is the clock in Junk Junction? Here you will find the clock right at the entrance of Junk Junction. There is a broken clock on the ground, to the left of the entrance.
If this clock doesn’t count for you, just look around the corner. There is another clock here.
Where is the clock in Neo Tilted? This clock is a bit tricky. It is the digital clock that is on a tall building. It is very large, so you can’t miss it.
Where is the clock at Fatal Fields? For the last clock, you need to search southeast of Fatal Fields. There, on a mountain, stands a huge scrap clock. This one also counts towards the task.
Is there a video? So you definitely don’t miss the clocks, we have embedded a video here that shows the exact locations. This way, you can’t miss them:

Who is Tsubasa? Tsubasa is known from the series Captain Tsubasa (or the great soccer stars). Similar to the Kickers, it was all about the stories of young soccer players who were accompanied on their careers.
Unforgettable are the attempts to shoot at the goal, which seemed to stretch over an entire show. If a particularly powerfully kicked ball did hit the goal, it often tore through the net.
With the new Tsubasa game, you can relive the nostalgia and dive back into the universe.

In Destiny 2 , you can now get some really good guns in the Menagerie with the Chalice of Opulence. We show you some of the best rolls for the new Menagerie weapons in PvP and PvE and explain how to get them.
For example, you can get some really good Menagerie-exclusive weapons like the sniper “Beloved”, the hand cannon “Falkner”, or the shotgun “Imperial Decree”.
These come with various random rolls and masterwork traits. But which of these are worth it in PvE and PvP? And how do you get them? Here are some of the best rolls for the exclusive Menagerie weapons that you can farm with the Chalice.
Keep in mind that the recommended rolls may not necessarily align with your personal preferences and ideals.
These rolls you should aim for with the Menagerie weapons
Here’s how you can get the exclusive weapons from the Menagerie: In the Menagerie, you can earn a total of seven exclusive weapons with the Chalice of Opulence. The weapon itself and parts of its traits depend on the rune combinations you can use in the Chalice.
Once you have assembled the correct rune combination for the respective weapon and its masterwork trait, farming can begin.
An example of possible rune combinations. Original source: Windzer408 on Reddit
After each successful completion of the activity, you will receive the corresponding weapon with random rolls and the desired masterwork trait, such as range. For the perks, you’ll usually need some luck and patience, as these are rolled randomly on the weapons.
With this trick, you can currently make farming easier: It is (still) possible to loot the last chest of the activity multiple times, thus also getting multiple loot drops that you aim for with the Chalice of Opulence. This currently makes farming for your desired roll much easier.
You don’t really have to do much for this. Once you have looted the chest right after completing the Menagerie for the first time, leave the boss room in the direction from which you entered. Run far enough until you enter a new area, which will be indicated on the left side of your screen. Then run back to the chest, equip the Chalice with new runes, and you can open the chest again. You can now repeat this until the timer ends after the activity.
Beloved is currently one of the most sought-after legendary snipers in the game. Many see it as one of the best legendary snipers, and according to numerous veterans, it feels similar to the popular LDR-5001 from the predecessor Destiny 1.
This is the roll you should aim for in PvP:
Extended Barrel

A new patch for Battlefield 5 has recently been released, driving players crazy: A new mystery has been found that players are currently grappling with. They are building stairs to the sky on the practice ground. However, they do not yet know what this means.
What are these stairs? After Patch 4.0: Defying the Odds, which was deployed to the Battlefield 5 servers a few days ago, players have discovered a strange Easter egg. In this mystery, players are building stairs upwards.
The Easter egg was discovered on the practice ground. Players can build stairs at various locations that spiral higher above the map. At various points, players receive cryptic messages displayed.
A timer starts running at the top of the screen, and the current height of the stairs is also displayed.
Strange messages are displayed to players at various heights. Source: DANNYonPC YouTube
How can you build yourself? Gather with three friends at the practice ground. There are bronze plates at various locations that need to be activated in order for the mystery to appear. Your friends and you should occupy different plates.
“Challenge accepted” will be displayed to you, and then you can start building. With your building tool, you can now start constructing stairs. They go higher and higher, but some stairs lead to a dead end or back to where you came from.
You need to hurry because the stairs do not last forever. After a while, they disappear, so it’s best if all four players build simultaneously. Once you’ve reached a certain height, airplanes will also make your life difficult by firing rockets at your constructions.
What does this mean? What this mystery is pointing to or whether it is just a funny mini-game is still unknown. However, some players speculate that it is a puzzle that the community should solve together. At certain heights, players receive strange messages displayed, such as “Knowledge is Power” or “By the Skin of our Teeth”.
Additionally, headphones can be found at a height, with which players can receive a code at a morse station. But here too, players are still at a standstill.
In July, there will be a new event for World vs. World in the MMORPG Guild Wars 2. You can defeat your opponents and then take on parts of their class. At the same time, there will be additional rewards for one week.
How does the new “Class Swap” event work? During the one-week WvW event, defeated opponents leave a glowing orb above their corpse that you can collect.
By collecting it, you take on a part of your opponent’s class. However, only your healing and support skills change. Your equipment, weapons, and traits remain unchanged.
When does the event take place? The event starts with the WvW reset on July 5th at 8:00 PM. It will run for exactly one week, until July 12th at 8:00 PM.
What additional rewards are there? During the event, you can look forward to additional rewards in World vs. World. You will receive:
Double World Experience Points
25% additional progress on the WvW reward track
+50% Magical Sensitivity
You only steal skills, not the playstyle
What was the idea behind the event? According to the blog post, the event is about getting to know the opponent better. Therefore, after defeating them, you can take over their class.
Many players compare the event to the secondary class system from Guild Wars 1. Some even suspect a secret test behind it to see if such a system would be well received in Guild Wars 2.
In general, ArenaNet is returning to more of the predecessor’s concepts and has already adopted the idea of regular events in April:
How does the class theft work? Once you have collected the glowing orb, you will receive the healing, support, and elite skills of the opposing class. So, it only concerns the second five skills on the right side of the health points.
However, in the theft, you do not take the five skills of the opponent, but five pre-made ones that are always the same. From a thief, you always receive:
Withdraw (Healing Skill)
Scorpion Wire
Blinding Powder
Scaled Poison
Thief Guild (Elite Skill)
How meaningful is the event? While some players look forward to the fresh wind in World vs. World, many see the event as rather pointless.
This is mainly due to the fact that you only steal five skills that have no synergy with your own class or playstyle.
Since the skills are predetermined, many players also expect that there won’t be any accidentally overpowering combinations of classes.
Some players are also eagerly waiting for the announced alliance update and now feel that this will be delayed further due to such events in WvW.
Even if the event may not be the most meaningful, our author Alexander Leitsch still finds the development of Guild Wars 2 to be positive:
A new cinematic in World of Warcraft suggests that the war between Horde and Alliance may soon come to an end. But would that even be possible?
The latest cinematic in Patch 8.2 Rise of Azshara is sparking many discussions within the community. It contains some implications that could shake the foundations of World of Warcraft. Players are currently debating whether Blizzard is removing the “war” from Warcraft and finally ending the conflict between Horde and Alliance.

What was shown in the cinematic? In the cutscene, the players manage to rescue Baine from Orgrimmar. Thrall, Jaina, Baine, Shaw, and Saurfang find themselves on the mountains of Mulgore watching Thunder Bluff as they talk. Especially, Jaina and Thrall discuss the past and the wars that Horde and Alliance have already experienced. It is like an eternal cycle that brings the two factions together and then tears them apart.
Peace as an option for Horde and Alliance
Jaina reminds that Horde and Alliance once worked hand in hand and were unstoppable – in Warcraft 3 during the defense of the World Tree Teldrassil. In response to Thrall’s question about what has changed this time, Jaina replies with “Us two.” She only says this in the German translation. In English, she says “We are” – a possibly broader “us.”
In doing so, she speaks not only for Thrall and Jaina, but also for most members of Horde and Alliance – including the players. After all, all these people have become smarter and richer in experience. They have seen where figures like Garrosh have brought the world and what Sylvanas is currently doing.
Jaina has experienced the consequences of her cleansing of Dalaran, in which she killed and expelled the blood elves. Both sides have continually seen where the ongoing conflict leads and that the spiral of hatred turns endlessly.
It seems to become increasingly clear that Sylvanas will be removed from her position as war chief by the end of the expansion – she should already realize that it is heading that way. It is becoming increasingly likely that she will establish her own faction and exist independently of Horde and Alliance, both of which want to pursue more peaceful plans.
Sylvanas is currently filtering out the people who are not loyal to her. With those who are, she will likely form her own faction to pursue a plan that has not yet been revealed. This could be something quite positive (like protection against the void lords) or also the path of the Lich King, where everything must be undead, because then there is peace (the anime villain variant).
Some players are already dreaming that an end to the war could have gameplay consequences. Some hope that there will be mixed groups and that one can form a combined group from Horde and Alliance in dungeons. After all, the language barrier has already fallen with the introduction of a potion for roleplayers.
Thematically, a stronger cooperation would fit well within the framework. After all, the adversaries in World of Warcraft are becoming more powerful and the threats ever greater. Since even the Burning Legion could not bring about lasting peace, the only real threat left is from the void lords, who will surely be addressed in an upcoming expansion. This is the “great enemy,” which has so far only acted through the Old Gods. If this opponent fails to force Horde and Alliance into peace, then the chances for that are likely running out.
What argues against peace in WoW?
However, there are also a number of arguments against such a drastic change in World of Warcraft. After all, the conflict between Horde and Alliance is the driving force and one of the most important core aspects of the game. The “us versus them” feeling that comes with choosing Horde or Alliance is an important identification for many players. If this is trivialized because Horde and Alliance simply land in a pot of friendship, love, and cotton balls, it would alienate some players.
At the same time, there are also enough indications that at least suggest that peace would only be short-lived. After all, there are still the cryptic words of Il’gynoth, which indicate that he will “present three lies” because he is “already sitting at the master’s table.” These sayings refer to Anduin, who has always stood for peace. If he were to fall and reveal himself as a traitor in some way, the peace plans would become difficult.
What is most likely?
Most likely, Blizzard will aim for a middle ground. This means that while the war between Horde and Alliance will come to an end on paper and they will work together on major projects (like saving the world), individual groups will likely not adhere to it, if only to continue to make PvP viable and not just degrade it to a “game mechanic”.
How exactly it will come about cannot be said yet. However, it is certain that the upcoming (possible) major patch 8.3 will already lay the groundwork for what will become of Horde and Alliance in the next expansion. And that could once again be an attempt to make peace and join forces to defeat the greatest enemies together.
After that, one can still just beat each other up anyway.
Riot Games has published, at the end of the testing phase of Teamfight Tactics, who the best player was. And it is Twitch streamer Rumay “Hafu” Wang, known from Hearthstone . She appears touched that she is finally receiving recognition. Until now, she felt overlooked because she is a girl.
How do we know that Hafu is the best? A statistic from Riot has been released showing the matchmaking of players as it was on June 24 in Teamfight Tactics.
Here is “itshafu”, a 28-year-old Twitch streamer, ranked number 1 with a matchmaking rating of 2466. This is the hidden score that rises with wins and falls with losses.
Teamfight Tactics was playable on the LoL test server from June 18 for about a week, and these are the results.
Who is Hafu? Rumay “Hafu” Wang is a well-known player in Hearthstone and World of Warcraft. She has 624,347 followers on Twitch.
This makes her a big, but not huge streamer – like in the “top 200 on Twitch” range.
Better than Trump and Kripparian in Hearthstone, but no one knows
This is Hafu’s reaction: The post from Riot Gaming seems to have moved her greatly. It seems to touch her deeply that it is finally documented publicly what she is capable of.
She says it is hard for her to talk about it without crying: “It’s pretty hard for girls to get respect – in gaming and in general.”

Every time she achieved something, it was downplayed by others:
When she won tournaments, people said, “You were carried too.”
Even though she was good in two games and won several tournaments, no one would have noticed or respected that – she received no recognition for it.
In Hearthstone, she thought she actually played better than popular competitors like Kripparrian or Trump – Blizzard would have checked and confirmed that, but then decided not to make it public.
She often read on Reddit: Hafu is bad and is only watched because she is a girl.

An insider report on the development of Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 casts a negative light on Treyarch and Activision Blizzard. Changes in plans led to massive overtime. The “Blackout” mode was supposedly put together in just 9 months. The campaign was scrapped, and the release was moved up.
Where does the information come from? It comes from the US site Kotaku. There, discussions were held with 11 former or current employees who wish to remain anonymous to avoid jeopardizing their careers.
According to sources, a campaign was actually planned and already in progress. The team worked overtime to finish the first missions before Christmas 2017 and present them to Activision.
But the plans were overturned:
First, there was to be a 2vs2 campaign in a post-apocalyptic world. You would play with a friend against 2 other people – or bots would take on the roles of the others. But there were technical issues.
Then a normal single-player campaign was planned – but there was not enough time for that.
Then the campaign was completely scrapped – and they needed a replacement, as fans expected another mode alongside PvP and zombies.
Blackout developed in just 9 months
This is why Blackout came: As a replacement, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 then assembled the Blackout mode in just 9 months.
Time was pressing because they wanted to release before Red Dead Redemption 2. Initially, the release of Black Ops 4 was planned for November 2018. To get ahead of Red Dead Redemption 2, they moved it up to October.
The Blackout mode in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 led to even more overtime. They chose Blackout to capitalize on the success of Fortnite and PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.
This is the impact of the intense crunch: The cancellation of the campaign and the development of a new mode “from scratch” caused significant time pressure and massive overtime for the team.
It is said
People began to drink to cope.
Panic attacks and burnouts occurred.
Some lost their passion for what they were doing.
Who was hit the hardest? The report shows that especially the “quality assurance” testers suffered during the compressed development of the shooter. These are paid game testers and bug hunters.
They are contract workers, so they are not permanent employees and have to face several disadvantages.
It is said that testers were treated like second-class citizens at Call of Duty: Black Ops 4:
Testers work separately from the other developers and have to stay on the second floor, while most developers are on the first.
They are said not to speak with other developers.
They are generally isolated, do not participate in surveys about job satisfaction, and feel unheard.
This is the problem: Testers worked 70 hours a week.
But they do not receive bonuses because they are contract workers. Their base pay is around $13 per hour.
This was particularly nasty: At the worst times, 2 shifts of testers worked 12 hours a day. From 10 AM to 10 PM and from 10 PM to 10 AM.
What upset the testers was that the air conditioning was turned off as soon as all developers left in the evening. The night shift had to work in steamy, unpleasant temperatures, as the servers continue to give off heat.
When complaints were made, it was only said, “The air conditioning is broken,” even though it had been running all day and was always turned off at the same time.
The report then describes in detail how these working conditions affected the QA testers.
Additionally, developers are quoted stating that the quality of the game suffers when QA testers work so isolated from the team.

What content is available? In the Summer Sale 2019, several contents for free-to-play games were also reduced. Such as packs for Warframe, War Thunder, World of Warships, or Brawlhalla.
In The Division 2 big changes are coming. In the new State of the Game, Massive promises significant improvements in loot and skills. Title Update 5 is set to bring 2 new Exotics and 2 new weapons, and the vendor Cassie will also become more useful.
This is the announcement: Massive clearly states that they have listened to fan feedback and believe that the loot is currently in a bad state. They want to overhaul the current gear system.
The goal is to have satisfactory ways to obtain loot. The gear should feel good.
For example, they want to work on the Gear Brands and ensure that each set has six pieces – instead of just three. This will come in a later Title Update.
It is now a top priority to improve the way equipment is obtained in The Division 2. This will be addressed.
With Episode 1, new content is coming – not just improvements.
Yellow builds should be as strong as Red ones
This is how they plan to increase build diversity: Episode 1 and Title Update 5 will be available on the test servers on Monday. You will already see a “skill overhaul” there.
Massive is still struggling with “skill mods” and will take another shot at fixing these with Title Update 5.
The goal is for players not to focus only on weapon damage (Red), but also on skills (Yellow).
To achieve this balance, they do not want to weaken the weapons, but rather strengthen the skills. If players can achieve 3 million DPS with a red assault rifle build, they should be able to do the same with a yellow build:
For example, a 3k skill power mod that currently increases the turret’s damage by 25-30% will do so by about 150% with the next update.
Additionally, Massive will change and strengthen the stat “Cooldown Reduction” in The Division 2. It will become “Skill Haste” and will increase with skill power. There will be an additional 33% bonus.
The shield skills will also become significantly stronger.
Two new weapons are planned, the “TU5-Carbine-7 assault rifle” and the “Stoner LMG” – both weapons will receive new talents.
The exotic gloves “BTSU Gloves” will allow players to create a hybrid build. The exotic lever-action rifle “Diamondback” will also be introduced.
The two new Exotics
When is all of this coming? The test server for Episode 1 and Title Update 5 starts on July 1. It looks like most of it is already in there. They plan to gradually unlock the game content, allowing each aspect to be tested individually.
For PC, PS4, and Xbox One, we can expect the patch by the end of July.
We will take a closer look at the various aspects in the coming days on MeinMMO.
Teamfight Tactics, the Auto Chess of League of Legends, is here and can now be played for free by you. We will tell you how to start the download and get started.
How do I download Teamfight Tactics? Riot Games has released its own Auto Chess as an additional game mode for League of Legends.
You first need to create an account on the official website of LoL. When registering, select Western Europe as the region and German as the language if necessary.
On the website, you can also directly download League of Legends.
How do I start Teamfight Tactics? Once you have installed the client, you will probably need to download a patch or two.
Once that is done, you can simply log in, click on “Play” in the game, and select the game mode Teamfight Tactics.
There are no restrictions on the level or time since the creation of your account.
No Teamfight Tactics for iOS and Android yet
Can I also play Teamfight Tactics with Mac or Mobile? There is a special Mac client for the game League of Legends. This can also be used for Teamfight Tactics and downloaded from the official site.
Currently, there is no mobile version available for either LoL or TFT. However, rumors surfaced in May 2019 that a LoL Mobile is in the works.

How do I navigate in Teamfight Tactics? If you have already played an Auto Chess game, you will quickly familiarize yourself with the new mechanics.
The major differences are only the carousel, which appears at the start and is later considered a comeback mechanic, and of course the champions, who have different skills, classes, and origins.
If you have any further questions, feel free to ask them in the comments. We are also planning a tier list and a guide to all items, so that you will quickly find your way around the game.
