Warframe was featured at the PC Gaming Show press conference at E3 2019. Instead of new information, there was advertising for TennoCon.
What happened? A presentation by Digital Extremes, the creators behind Warframe, was announced for the PC Gaming Show at E3 2019. It was said that there would be a look at the upcoming space battles. These are planned for the Empyrian update. Players will get their own combat ships and can fight with them in coop.

The trailer only contains previously known footage of the space battles. There were no new updates or information about the update or space battles during the entire presentation.
This is how the event was promoted: At the end of the trailer, there is a note that the full reveal of Empyrian and the space battles can be seen at TennoCon (on July 6, 2019). TennoCon is Warframe’s own fan convention, which takes place in Canada.
At the end of the trailer, the full reveal of Empyrian is announced to be shown at TennoCon.
There is also a note that everyone who watches TennoCon live on Twitch will receive the Warframe Nekros Prime for free. This is the only new information from Warframe’s presentation that will surely make many players happy.
The E3 trailer from 2018 was a real highlight at the PC Gaming Show.
Why this is unfortunate: The developers at Digital Extremes are likely working hard to finish the update and make it presentable for TennoCon. After all, the space battles are supposed to be gigantic, and there will surely be more big, surprising reveals at the convention.
However, this presentation at E3 2019 was disappointing. Especially when comparing the trailer from 2019 with that from 2018. This presentation came off as just an advertisement, which is unfortunate because Warframe is a game that is always full of surprises.
At the E3 2019, a new Zombie Army game was announced with a crazy trailer – Zombie Army 4: Dead War. It’s about fighting Nazi zombies led by an undead Hitler in co-op.
Rebellion Developments, the creators of Sniper Elite 4, presented a new game at the PC Gamer Show during E3 2019 – Zombie Army 4: Dead War. However, the shooter is different from what most fans would expect.
This is shown in the trailer: No real gameplay from the spin-off of Sniper Elite can be seen yet. This will be shown on June 11. However, the cinematic trailer clearly shows what the game is about – namely the fight against Nazi zombies.
At the end, the obvious leader of the zombies can be seen – an undead Hitler, who laughs shamelessly. He will probably need to be sent back to hell (again).

The fictional setting is set in 1946, after the end of World War II. In a mix of Sniper Elite and Left4Dead, players fight the undead using various heroes with many skills, supernatural abilities, and different attacks.

Do you play it while drunk? During the presentation at the PC Gaming Show, Tripwire President John Gibson and Steve Piggot from Torn Banner explained that players play Chivalry while drunk. “We know that at least half of our players play the game drunk.”
It is unclear where they got this data.
What is it about? Chivalry II is a multiplayer game played from the first-person perspective. You can expect epic medieval battles.
The combat system of its predecessor has been completely overhauled. Players will recognize it in Chivalry 2, but everything is designed to feel smoother and more natural.
Matches can be played with up to 64 players. Set villages on fire or clear your way with catapults.
If you want, you can grab a sword or other weapons. Horse riding is new and has been requested by many players.
What makes it special: The battles are set to be particularly epic. In an interview with PC Gamer, Steven Piggot from Torn Banner Studios reveals that Chivalry 2 has been specifically designed for the chaotic and intense style of medieval battles.
Also interesting is how much you can customize your characters. You give them personalized phrases to say in battle. So you can quote Shakespeare while stabbing an opponent in the face with a sword.
When is the release? Chivalry II is set to be released “early 2020” on the Epic Games Store. There is no specific release date yet.

At the E3 2019 Bethesda announced that Fallout 76 is supposed to be playable for free for a week. This week starts now. What the update brings and how you can play, you can find out here.
When is Fallout 76 free to play? Fallout 76 has been back online since around 7:15 PM and is now available to play for free. The event lasts a week, from June 10 to June 17.
What’s included in the free week: In the announcement for Fallout 76, the developers also spoke about the new content that the game will receive. During the free testing week, there will already be a Battle Royale mode included that belongs to the new “Nuclear Winter” update.
However, every player will have access to the full game, not just the BR mode. This means each player can:
We recommend that for a better experience, you find a handful of friends with whom you can explore Appalachia together – or experienced players who will surely be happy to help you. Fallout 76 can also be enjoyed alone.
What is “Nuclear Winter”? The playable update “Nuclear Winter” is the second of three major updates that Fallout 76 is set to receive in 2019. “Nuclear Winter” includes both the new mode and Vaults 94 and 96 as raids, as well as more story. However, the raids and the new story will come at a later time.

Watch Dogs Legion
What was announced about Watchdogs 3: The third installment of the series is called Watch Dogs Legion. The setting is London and takes place after Brexit. Here, a totalitarian government has taken over the city, and the hacker group DedSec rises up.
According to the Ubisoft store, Watch Dogs Legion will offer co-op missions for up to four players alongside the campaign.
The announcement came as a complete surprise to the press conference. Here, MMO culture, players, and developers are humorously criticized.

The new League of Legends game mode will be called Tactical Teamfight and will be based on Auto Chess, a mod for Dota 2. It will be available for testing later this month.
How does the new game mode work? Tactical Teamfight will be based on the principle of Auto Chess known from Dota 2. Players’ game pieces will compete against each other on a board in multiple rounds. A round proceeds as follows:
First, there will be a shopping phase where you can buy new pieces, upgrade pieces, or reposition them on the board. Gold for this is obtained automatically, but there are bonuses for saving or for consecutive victories.
Then, there will be a combat phase where the pieces face off against those of another player.
Finally, the player who loses the round takes damage.
If a player’s health points drop to 0, they are eliminated from the game. The goal is to be the last surviving player in a match.
When will Tactical Teamfight be released? According to the official blog post, the game mode should be brought to the test server this June. The official release will coincide with Patch 9.13.
Tactical Teamfight will be released as a beta and then developed further with player feedback. Only with Patch 9.14 should all bugs be fixed and the ranking system implemented.
How does Tactical Teamfight differ from Auto Chess? There are hardly any differences between the two games in terms of structure and gameplay. Both rely on characters from their universes, origins and class bonuses, as well as upgrading the pieces. The differences lie more in the details.
While in Auto Chess all players buy their heroes simultaneously, in Tactical Teamfight in LoL, they are chosen sequentially. This is to give players who are currently lagging behind a chance for a comeback.
Additionally, the board of the League of Legends version is hexagonal, allowing for slightly different positioning in area attacks.
The first six little legends
Will there also be avatars? In Auto Chess, the player character is represented by an avatar. Different versions of it can be purchased for in-game currency or real money.
Riot Games has also jumped on this train and is bringing the little legends. They will cost 750 RP in the shop and can be upgraded by hatching multiple copies from eggs. These eggs will cost 490 RP. Initially, there will be six legends, but more are expected to follow.
In addition to Auto Chess, the little legends will also be used in the Howling Abyss. There, they will cheer you on from the sidelines.
Auto Chess works very well in the mobile version. But League of Legends could also soon be available for smartphones:
In a few months, Bless Online will close its servers. However, it seems that money should still be made with the MMORPG before that. New items have now been added to the shop.
These costumes cost 650 Lumena each, which is about 5 euros. Thus, they are significantly cheaper (75%) than the costumes that cost around 19 euros at release, but they still cost real money.
And that is currently upsetting some players. Even though all items in the shop were reduced by 75%, they are trying to get money from players with these new features, even though Bless will soon be offline.
“Are you mocking us or have you changed your mind?”
This is how fans react to the latest patch: The latest update generated 13 comments within a few hours, and none of them are positive, even though the patch brought some useful changes.
Most accuse Neowiz of fraud, and user Gjafar even warns in several languages not to buy the costumes, as the MMORPG is being discontinued.
User Darianna, on the other hand, asks if this is a bad joke or if the developers have suddenly changed their minds.
Other users wished that the contents of the shop would even be made completely free so that everyone could use them. This happened, for example, with the closure of Kritika Online in April of this year.
What changes were made to the dungeons? Since June 10, players can visit dungeons more frequently. Regular, elite, and raid dungeons, as well as rifts in time and space, can now be visited an unlimited number of times. Random dungeons can at least be visited ten times a day.
Furthermore, the drop rates of the dungeons have been increased, so there are more guaranteed items and more currencies. For example, in a raid, you receive 100% four items, in regular and elite dungeons at least two items.
What else has changed? The costs for offers on the market have been reduced to 3% or 1% for premium users. In addition, many buffs have been activated on the servers:
Increased gathering and extraction points by 100%
Reduced gathering and extraction time by 50%
Reduced crafting duration by 50%
Increased guild EXP by 100%
Increased hunt EXP by 100%
Increased dungeon points for killing a dungeon boss by 100%
Increased combat points for defeating enemies by 100%
During the E3 2019, Microsoft presented many new trailers for games at their press conference. One that many considered insignificant touched its community right in the heart.
What announcement is it about? The trailer for the new version of the Microsoft Flight Simulator was part of Microsoft’s opening at E3 2019. The trailer impresses with stunning graphics. It is said that the images were captured in real-time 4K.
The last title of this flight simulation dates back to 2006. So it has been almost 13 years since then.

Why is this special? Until yesterday, nobody in the community expected a new version of the simulator. Looking at the reactions of the players, Microsoft has done a great job with the surprise.
Because although many expected more from Microsoft’s press conference (like more content on Project Scarlett), this announcement is being celebrated greatly.
In social networks, many players mention that this is “the best announcement of E3 2019”. Some even had tears in their eyes and can hardly believe their luck.
Even though the “current” Microsoft Flight Simulator is from 2006, there is still a passionate community that regularly takes to the skies with the simulator.
According to Steamcharts, on average, over 2,000 players are still playing the Steam version of Microsoft Flight Simulator at the same time. During peak times, it’s 3,500 to 4,000 players simultaneously.
How is the community reacting to the announcement: The trailer currently has 20,715 thumbs up and only 187 thumbs down on YouTube (as of June 10, 3:58 PM). In the comments on YouTube and Reddit, the main sentiment is joy:
“The flight sim community just completely lost their minds”
“I am surprised by the announcement, but it is the best announcement!”
“I have been playing since Flight Simulator 98. This means so much to me. Thank you for bringing back the simulation”
“Am I the only one who can’t stop watching the trailer?”
Other players are linking on YouTube and Twitter to the YouTuber Airforceproud95. With his channel he reaches almost a million subscribers, whom he regularly entertains with gameplay videos from the Flight Simulator. Almost everyone in the community has heard his name.
He seems excited about the new version of the Flight Simulator, reacting on Twitter with an emotional GIF.

What is known about the new Flight Simulator? Not much is known about the new game yet. The Microsoft Flight Simulator is set to be released in 2020. Flying will be done with light aircraft as well as large jets. Day and night changes and challenging weather conditions will play a role in gameplay.
Currently, there is a huge monster swimming around the map of Fortnite . Several players confirm the sightings. We tell you what it’s all about. Is Epic planning a live event for E3 2019?
This is what the sightings are about: If you are currently on the edge of the map, you should take a look from the island. A monster is currently wreaking havoc, swimming through the water with the remnants of Polar Peak.

Finally, the giant monster completely vanished and took large parts of Polar Peak with it. Only footprints remained.
This huge eye watched you for a long time.
Now the monster is appearing again. When watching the video, you can still see the remains of Polar Peak on the back of the beast. Not much more is recognizable initially. One thing is for sure: The monster seems to be huge.
What is behind the monster? Epic itself has not commented on the monster yet. Some fans suspect that the monster is related to the film Godzilla: King of the Monsters, which is currently in theaters.
Does it indicate a live event? The monster has significantly changed the map of Fortnite. It’s quite possible that it will appear in a live event and cause a lot of destruction again.
Epic can certainly be expected to launch such an event at the ongoing giant fair, E3, in Los Angeles.
Some players suspect Godzilla behind the monster
When will we know more? The latest patches of Fortnite have repeatedly brought news about the monster. If Epic stays true to this line, a new patch with more information about the monster could follow this week.
What do you think? What is behind the monster that is now swimming in the water?
Some details have been revealed about the role Keanu Reeves will play in Cyberpunk 2077. We will tell you all the details.
When at the E3 2019 a new trailer for Cyberpunk 2077 was released and Keanu Reeves came on stage at the end, the cheers were loud. After all, Reeves had just been seen in the trailer for the game, where he spoke about “burning down a city.” The actor portrays a character in Cyberpunk 2077 and some details about his role are already known, as he plays “Johnny Silverhand.”
Who is Johnny Silverhand? In Cyberpunk 2077, players encounter Johnny Silverhand during character creation. He can be chosen as a childhood hero for V (the main character). This influences the past of the main character. Silverhand was a rockerboy and thus a talented musician who rebelled against corporations and political powers with his lyrics.
Johnny Silverhand is already dead: It is also interesting that Johnny Silverhand has already died in the story of Cyberpunk 2077. A year before the events, in 2076, he has already passed away. In the Pen&Paper Cyberpunk 2020, he also died in 2024. Why V can still see him in the trailer is not entirely clear.
However, it would fit the setting well if the “rockerboy” Johnny Silverhand lives on as an AI or his consciousness continues to exist in digital form – perhaps on the chip that was seen in the trailer. This would also explain why Johnny “flickers” as V stands up – he is just a projection.
The name Silverhand, as one can easily recognize, comes from Johnny’s left arm. It was replaced by a cybernetic prosthesis.
Johnny Silverhand in Pen&Paper – a bit colorless, but a real rockerboy.
Rockerboys fight against the corporations: Rockerboys, like Johnny Silverhand, can most easily be described as anarchists. They wage their small wars against political powers or the various corporations that have a say in the world of Cyberpunk. They often rely on music but can also engage in other artistic expressions. This was at least the case in the Pen&Paper predecessor Cyberpunk 2020.
Whether the role of Johnny Silverhand in Cyberpunk 2077 is identical to the role of Johnny Silverhand in the rules of Cyberpunk 2020 remains to be seen. The identical name and similar appearance at least suggest that the two roles will have many similarities.
What do you think of Keanu Reeves’ appearance in Cyberpunk 2077? Does he play a cool character? Will he also become your “childhood hero”?
With the Chalice of Opulence, you can earn various cool armor pieces and weapons in Season 7 of Destiny 2 . We show you the right rune combinations for the Chalice and which gear you can farm.
What is the deal with the Chalice and farming? The Chalice of Opulence is a central feature of the new Season 7. You can upgrade this Chalice of Opulence and gradually earn specific weapons and armor pieces in the Menagerie, the new 6-player activity.
You can determine which items you receive at the end of a Menagerie match depending on your Chalice’s progress. For this, you need the corresponding Chalice upgrades as well as the required runes.
These rune combinations you should know for the Chalice of Opulence
The various rune combinations in the three slots of the Chalice determine whether and which weapons and armor pieces you receive at the end of a run in the Menagerie.
In the Menagerie, you can specifically farm 28 weapons and 4 armor sets with 5 armor pieces each. The armor sets and weapons are the same for all classes. Only the appearance of the armor sets is adapted to the respective Guardian classes.
Included are:
the Wyrm-Web Set
the Year 2 Version of the Exodus Crash Set
the Dreaming City Dreamer-Morning Set
as well as the new Opulent Set from the Menagerie
Here you can see which runes you need to place in which slot to earn corresponding gear. The graphic comes from a very popular thread on Reddit. The author has granted us permission to adapt his previous (English) work for the German community.
Warlock: The right runes for the Chalice – the gear is available
As a Warlock, you will receive the following items when you socket the runes as described below:

The runes in Slot 2 determine what attributes your armor pieces will have – whether it be Mobility, Recovery, or Resilience.
Hunter: The right runes for the Chalice – the gear is available
For Hunters, the same principle as for Warlocks applies. Only the appearance of the respective sets changes based on the class.
Original source: Windzer408 on Reddit
Titan: The right runes for the Chalice – the gear is available
For Titans, you won’t have to consider anything different than with the other Guardian classes. The sets remain the same. The armor is simply tailored to the Titan.

Farming weapons in the Menagerie – These are the right rune combinations
For weapons, there are already several more combinations. Place the corresponding runes as described below in the Chalice of Opulence, and you will receive the following weapons:

Unlike what FIFA fans had feared, FIFA 20 VOLTA will launch without microtransactions. However, it is questionable whether this will remain the case.
The FIFA community was already concerned during the announcement of the VOLTA mode and the associated cosmetic items that they would have to purchase everything from shoes to hair with real money.
But EA surprises and says: There will be no microtransactions in VOLTA.
VOLTA is the new street mode in FIFA 20. Here, players can engage in skillful matches on smaller pitches, just like in the previous FIFA Street games. VOLTA will offer various modes and fully customizable characters.
These items will be available in VOLTA: EA has announced that players will be able to completely customize their VOLTA character. This includes clothing, face, hair, and tattoos. There will also be a VOLTA store where hoodies, jackets, pants, t-shirts, etc. can be purchased.
EA talks about VOLTA
This is what EA says:In a major interview with Eurogamer, EA confirms to the surprise of many FIFA players that the new VOLTA store will not contain microtransactions at launch. Instead, all in-game items will be unlocked through gameplay.
When asked if they categorically exclude microtransactions, Matt Prio, FIFA 20’s Creative Director, says:
We never rule anything out. Since we are constantly evolving, we never say never. But no, there are no microtransactions at launch.
So it doesn’t sound like a general no to microtransactions in VOLTA; we will have to wait and see.
This is how fans react to EA’s statements
This is what the fans say: Fans are somewhat divided but are generally pleased that VOLTA will have no microtransactions at launch. As one reddit user rScoobySkreep states, “No microtransactions? Let’s go! I think EA could rock it this year.”
However, some suspect that VOLTA in FIFA 20 could just be a test for EA to eventually incorporate microtransactions in FIFA 21, as this user pointed out on reddit:
“WHAT??? I can hardly believe that EA is not going to cash in on all the cosmetic items in this mode. Maybe this is just a test for FIFA 21.”
Others, however, would have no problem with a real-money shop for VOLTA, like triolgh: “Cosmetic microtransactions are a million times better than the pay-to-win nonsense in Ultimate Team”
What do you think? Will microtransactions come to VOLTA after all?
In the MMORPG Lost Ark , the hope of fans has been awakened. After the Microsoft press conference at E3 2019, players are telling themselves that soon the news might come that the MMORPG is making its way to Europe and North America. Because they are eagerly waiting for the European release. However, the chances seem to be slim.
This is the situation: The MMORPG Lost Ark has been a dream for many Western players for years, who long for an action MMORPG that bridges the gap between “classic MMORPG” and hack’n slash like Diablo 3 .
Lost Ark is indeed intended for a port to Europe and North America, aiming for the global market, but publisher Smilegate has not yet elaborated on how exactly they plan to bring the game to Europe and North America.
The Koreans do not have the right contacts in the West: An office in Berlin was opened but was closed shortly afterward.
This happened yesterday: At Microsoft’s press conference, “Phantasy Star Online 2” was unexpectedly announced as a port to North America. It had only been playable in Japan until now and fans had long given up hope for a port.
Then the Smilegate logo flashed. For a few seconds, fans hoped: “Are they really bringing two Asia MMORPGs to us?”
How likely is that really? The hope of the fans is understandable, but still very unlikely.
One can probably assume that Microsoft’s deal with Smilegate only pertains to Crossfire X.
If Microsoft really brought Lost Ark here in the West, it would be a huge deal. But at the moment, publishers like my.com, who are also managing the Russian version, seem to be more likely. However, this is protected from us Europeans by an IP block.
A visitor to E3 2019 must be pretty happy. Because he shouted during a presentation, he is getting the Collector’s Edition of Cyberpunk 2077 as a gift.
Last night, Microsoft held its press conference at E3, where Cyberpunk 2077 was also revealed. In addition to a new trailer and the announcement of the release date in April 2020, there was also the appearance of a very special star. Keanu Reeves took the stage and stated, that he will be a part of Cyberpunk 2077. During this, a fan shouted into the presentation and made Reeves laugh – for this, the fan now receives a reward.

What happened? Keanu Reeves talked a bit about Cyberpunk 2077 and how he got involved in the project. He then explained what impression he had gained from the game and said:
Let me tell you: The feeling when you are there, when you walk through the streets of the future – it will be truly breathtaking.
A fan named Peter Sark took advantage of the moment and shouted loudly from the crowd to Reeves: “You are breathtaking!” This immediately caused laughter from Reeves and the audience and a direct response: “YOU are breathtaking!”
Apparently, the incident threw Keanu Reeves off a bit, as he continued the presentation with “Hey, I have to finish this!” and then hesitated a bit before presenting the release date.
Collector’s Edition as a reward for shouting out: For his “effort”, the loud gentleman from the audience is indeed being rewarded. On Twitter, he proudly stated that he was called “breathtaking” by Keanu Reeves. In response from the Twitter channel of Cyberpunk 2077, there was also this reply:
And it also earned you a free Collector’s Edition of Cyberpunk 2077!

Community reacts mixed: Most aspiring players and fans are excited about the incident, as it was very entertaining and enriched the presentation. However, there are also a few cynical voices who think that you just have to be rude during a presentation to receive special treatment. This would not set a good example and should not be rewarded.
Battle Royale mode converts hardcore Fallout 4 fan
This is what the spammer says: He says he cannot disclose all details, but he says that Fallout 76 has the potential to really make an impact as a game and in the end could appeal to everyone.
Most of the 8 people who came to Dallas are “old-school Fallout” fans – he himself is a mod author for Fallout 4. Actually, the old-school players were not interested in battle royale, but with the mode, they have really warmed up.
He himself really loves the mode.
After the action, he holds Bethesda in high regard for taking such a risk to let 8 players look behind the scenes and seeking exchange.
This is what it’s about: What Fallout 76 has done here has happened more frequently lately. A game that was considered completely closed during development is now opening up after a difficult phase and inviting hardcore fans to talk about the game:
In 2014, after the terrible start of The Elder Scrolls Online, Zenimax organized a “Guild Summit” to discuss how to radically change the MMORPG with the biggest fans
The Division 1 formed a “task force” when the game hit rock bottom
Apparently, Bethesda is also relying on this approach and has spent quite a bit to do so. It will be interesting to see how the new update Nuclear Winter is received.

After the action, he holds Bethesda in high regard for taking such a risk to let 8 players look behind the scenes and seeking exchange.
Players save their games – it becomes a trend
This is what it’s about: What Fallout 76 has done here has happened more frequently lately. A game that was considered completely closed during development is now opening up after a difficult phase and inviting hardcore fans to talk about the game:
In 2014, after the terrible start of The Elder Scrolls Online, Zenimax organized a “Guild Summit” to discuss how to radically change the MMORPG with the biggest fans
The Division 1 formed a “task force” when the game hit rock bottom
Apparently, Bethesda is also relying on this approach and has spent quite a bit to do so. It will be interesting to see how the new update Nuclear Winter is received.
As it has now become known, Bethesda invited 8 players from the community to gather feedback for Fallout 76 and test the new battle royale mode. One of them says he was one of the harshest critics of the gameand spammed Bethesda with complaints until they had to react.
Where does the story come from? On reddit the user Aten_Ra shares what he has experienced with Fallout 76 over the last four to five months.
It is an extraordinary story that began with a lot of frustration and ends on a reconciliatory note.
A moderator of the subreddit says: The story is “verified” and therefore credible.
At the beginning, players had plenty of reasons to complain about Fallout 76.
Player starts spam wave to shake Fallout 76 awake
How did Bethesda become aware of the critic? The player says he submitted numerous bug reports for Fallout 76 months ago but felt that nobody was listening to him.
Then, at the end of January, he raised the alarm, escalated on reddit, and accused Bethesda of not communicating with the community.
Then a community manager contacted him, but basically only issued the instruction: “Submit a ticket.”
The player then wanted to do that, but not just submit one ticket, but dozens of tickets. So, he initiated a spam wave. To really get under Bethesda’s skin, he submitted the tickets through customer service. He created a form to make it quick.
In this way, the pestering spirit submitted every bug he had experienced, as well as bugs from others.
Ultimately, this led to a strange situation: The player had a one-hour conversation with an employee of Bethesda, the head of customer support.
He was probably supposed to ask him to ease off on the spam at least for a few days. Ultimately, however, it turned into a constructive conversation, and things started to move:
Months later, he was asked if he would sign an NDA, a non-disclosure agreement
They asked him if he would be willing to come in person
In the end, Bethesda flew this hard critic to Dallas, to the headquarters
Task force of 8 players on site
This happened in Dallas: As the player says, Bethesda had contacted 10 people in the community, all of whom represented different perspectives. 8 of them flew to Dallas without knowing what Bethesda actually wanted from them. Some didn’t even come from the USA.
The meeting is described as constructive and open. The Fallout 76 developers were very interested in the players’ statements.
Players and developers formed mixed teams and raced through the mode, Aten_Ra reports.
Apparently, Bethesda is also relying on this approach and has spent quite a bit to do so. It will be interesting to see how the new update Nuclear Winter is received.
After the action, he holds Bethesda in high regard for taking such a risk to let 8 players look behind the scenes and seeking exchange.

The “Nuclear Winter” update was unveiled yesterday at E3 2019, which is why the player can now talk about it – the NDA has been loosened.
Battle Royale mode converts hardcore Fallout 4 fan
This is what the spammer says: He says he cannot disclose all details, but he says that Fallout 76 has the potential to really make an impact as a game and in the end could appeal to everyone.

The upcoming Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2019 aims to provide a continuous and cohesive experience across all its modes. It wants to be more than just a collection of different game formats, it was said at E3 2019.
On May 30, the publisher Activision along with the developer Infinity Ward officially unveiled the new Call of Duty for 2019 – Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. The new installment of the series aims to do many things differently compared to its predecessors – especially regarding the interplay of the individual modes and the experience therein.
This is how the modes currently stand: Currently, for example, in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, the game essentially offers a collection of different modes. These are all largely independent of each other and merely united under the umbrella of Black Ops 4.
Among other things, there is the traditional multiplayer, which has little to do with the Battle Royale mode Blackout. The Zombies experience, on the other hand, has hardly any touchpoints with the two MP formats of Black Ops 4. The same applies to the various modes in almost all previous Call of Duty titles.
This is what is supposed to change with Modern Warfare 2019 in terms of modes: During the E3 2019, several developers from Treyarch joined the YouTube E3 show and shared a bit about the upcoming Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.
They emphasized that they want to change exactly this fragmented player experience with the new Modern Warfare 2019. They want to offer players more than just a mere collection of different modes – a single complete experience.
Thus, they want to provide players with a continuous and overarching experience that runs equally through all existing modes – whether multiplayer, co-op, or the single-player campaign. Fans should no longer play individual modes – they should play Modern Warfare. As one unit.
These are the changes using weapons and equipment as an example: Everything you do in Modern Warfare takes place in the same consistent world and is subject to the same rules. All weapons and the entire equipment palette are supposed to play the same way everywhere and function uniformly.
If you gain experience and achieve progress with a weapon in one mode, you should be able to apply that experience in all other modes. The progress and unlocks will also count everywhere – regardless of where you unlocked what.
If a player is not the best in multiplayer, for example, they can unlock their weapon and attachments in the campaign, but still use them in multiplayer. The weapon will be at the same level as in single-player and all other modes as well.
What we still know about the reboot of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: To ensure you don’t miss anything about the upcoming Modern Warfare, we have summarized the most important information that is currently known.
What is the price of the Collector’s Edition? The cost of the CE was quite hefty, a proud 220€ the developers wanted for the premium version compared to the 60€ standard version. However, this apparently did not deter fans, as just a few hours after the sales began, the CE is already sold out at least on Amazon for PC and Xbox One. For the PS4, there are currently (12:45 PM) still copies available.
The contents of the Collector’s Edition – lots of goodies!
What is included in the Collector’s Edition? For the hefty price of 220€, the Collector’s Edition also offered a lot of physical content with which fans can now decorate their room or simply show off in front of their nerd friends. Included are:
A 25cm tall figure of V, the main character of the game
Collector’s steelbook
Hardcover artbook
Metal pin set
A metal keychain in the style of “Quadra Vtech”
A commented edition of the “Night City travel guide”
Embroidered patches
Sticker bomb set
Bonuses already in the Standard Version: But you don’t have to miss out on all the bonuses. The Standard Version of the game also has some additional perks. The following content is included in both the Standard and the Collector’s Edition:
World compendium in details about the setting and background story of the game
Postcards from Night City
Map of Night City
In addition,
there are a few digital bonuses that are also included in both versions
of the game:
Soundtrack for the game
Art booklet with a selection of artworks
“Cyberpunk 2020” source compilation
Desktop and mobile device wallpapers
Will there be more stock? Whether there will be further versions of the Collector’s Edition of Cyberpunk 2077 or if the developers will produce more due to the extremely high demand remains to be seen. In any case, there seemed to be many fans particularly hungry for Cyberpunk 2077 who jumped at the chance immediately.
One possibility could be the Store of CD Projekt Red – there the Collector’s Edition is still listed as “Coming Soon”. Those who keep their eyes open may have another chance.
Are you satisfied with the Standard Version of the game? Or do you hope that CD Projekt RED will be generous and release another round of CEs?
The qualification for the Fortnite World Cup is in full swing, and the pro Bizzle shows how easy it actually is to win there. He played without a weapon and still won some rounds.
This pro is about: Bizzle, an American pro from Ghost Gaming, showed this crazy feat.
Bizzle already qualified in the first week for the grand finale of the World Cup. Now he had time to mock the qualification a bit. He already pointed out beforehand that he finds Fortnite’s World Cup mode bad.
How Bizzle dominated the World Cup qualifiers
This is what Bizzle showed: The pro faced a pretty tough challenge. He reached the World Cup semifinals without using a single weapon.
We embed a video here where he won the round without a weapon. When the zone disappeared, he simply survived longer than his opponent.

How does Bizzle win without weapons? The pro played with grenades and traps. This way, he got some kills in his rounds. Otherwise, he built a lot and had a good supply of bandages and potions. In the end, he simply survived longer outside the zone.
This is so remarkable: Many well-known streamers fail to qualify. The best players in the world compete against each other there. All the more remarkable that Bizzle seems to easily achieve victories without a weapon.
The streamer Ninja fails to qualify for the World Cup
Why does Bizzle do that? The pro doesn’t think much of the World Cup mode in Fortnite. He has criticized several times that Epic has simply introduced massive changes and new weapons just before major tournaments.
Yesterday at E3 2019, Microsoft unexpectedly announced that they will bring Phantasy Star Online 2 to North America. This is a big deal, says our author Schuhmann. But somehow, one has to get used to it first.
That’s why it was the biggest surprise: Phantasy Star Online 2 was really off the radar for most people. The game was a topic here in the West back in 2012. It was shown at conventions but ultimately only released in Japan.
However, for most of us in Europe, the game was too far away to really engage with. Only those who were really keen installed an English patch and a VPN client and took on all the inconveniences to play it directly on Japanese servers.
Time and again, when the MMORPG drought here in the West was particularly severe, one could observe that people appeared in the relevant forums asking: “How can I play this together with you in Japan?”
But hardly anyone hoped for a port to the West anymore.
SEGA announced that they would also bring the MMORPG to the West, but ultimately broke contact after having remained silent for years anyway.
The fans finally gave up hope after 4, 5 years: If Sega hadn’t brought the game to the West after such a long time, why would they still do it? That would be completely pointless.
Therefore, the announcement came almost out of nowhere and is therefore even more surprising. Apparently, SEGA really only needed a (probably financial) push to take the risk and bring their game to the West.
Phantasy Star 1 – I played that about 30 years ago.
The RPG series of my childhood
Why is Phantasy Star something special? Many of today’s RPG players grew up with the “Phantasy Star” series – at least if they had a SEGA in their childhood (like me) and not a Nintendo (like almost all my friends back then).
I played the 1st Phantasy Star on the SEGA Master System almost 30 years ago. It was my first experience with RPG systems at all.
I still remember how I grinded sea fish by a lake for hours and ultimately stomped through the story with my party members, including a cat, severely over-leveled.
Parts 2 and 4 were masterpieces on the Sega Mega Drive – we’ll gloss over part 3.
I lost track of the series after that, but others continued to follow it on Sega Dreamcast and other platforms.
Also, the first Phantasy Star Online was a matter of the heart for many players, as you know.
What makes Phantasy Star Online 2 stand out? In recent years, one could only follow the game from afar, even though some made the effort to play the game in Japan:
It is probably a very “grindy” game – that’s why fans are now saying “For God’s sake, I have 7000 hours in Japan, don’t block the IPs if there’s now an NA version”
It has a unique art style – Phantasy Star has always been somewhere between science fiction and fantasy
It has quite revealing costumes
Phantasy Star Online repeatedly does insane crossovers with other franchises popular in Japan
and over the years it has received endless new content
What’s still a concern: Now Sega says the game will come in spring 2020 to PC and Xbox One – but initially only for North America. We will have to see what this means for us Europeans and what hurdles we will have to overcome to play it,
For now, it is definitely a very positive surprise.
Although I am curious whether the game can really establish itself here in the West after such a long time.
