Players complain about nerfs in Destiny 2, yet many guardians demand this nerf themselves

Sven Galitzki Sven Galitzki Reading time 3 minutes

For the upcoming Season 7, there will be a lot of nerfs in Destiny 2. Many players are now demanding: If Bungie is in a nerf mood, they should also weaken or remove this unpopular boss mechanic.

That is why many players complain about nerfs: On June 4th, the new Season 7, the Season of Opulence starts in Destiny 2. However, there will not only be fresh content for the Guardians, but also numerous nerfs to popular weapons and gear – much to the dismay of some fans.

Many players are fed up and are already calling the new season a “Go slow” update or Season of the Nerf. You can find out more about it here:

Will also be nerfed soon – Lunas Howl (Source: @saboe627 on Twitter)

This is what many fans are now demanding: Even though many are currently complaining about the upcoming nerfs, there is one nerf that many Guardians are now demanding themselves.

If the developers are already swinging the nerf hammer for the new season, then fans want them to nerf one of the most annoying boss mechanics as well – the so-called Boss Stomp.

This “nerf” has been continuously demanded by fans for some time now, but with the current nerf discussion, this topic has now boiled over again. The most popular thread on this topic has over 5,800 upvotes on reddit and receives broad agreement in the comments.

It is no wonder that this mechanic serves as a template for many Destiny memes:

What is the deal with the Boss Stomp? The Boss Stomp is considered by fans to be one of the most annoying boss mechanics in Destiny 2. The boss stomps the ground when a Guardian approaches within a certain radius.

This can either instantly kill you or at least cause you to lose a large part of your health. Additionally, you are often thrown several meters into the air and may die upon impact with an obstacle – regardless of whether you are hiding, standing against a wall, or in the midst of an active super.

What annoys many Guardians about the Boss Stomp: Whether in a strike, raid, or other activities – the vast majority of bosses use this knockback mechanic. Even numerous enemy majors make use of this effect, including Vex Hydras – and they don’t even have legs.

destiny 2 morgeth

This makes it nearly impossible to approach most bosses or high-ranking enemies, or to hide near them in between. Entire weapon classes, such as swords or shotguns, become absolutely useless in many boss encounters, many fans say.

For example, if you tackled the raid boss Aksis in “Wrath of the Machines” with the Dark Drinker sword or sent numerous strike bosses to the virtual afterlife with the Deicide, you will search in vain for such moments in Destiny 2. Although swords in Destiny 2 need a lot more love, removing or weakening this mechanic would already be the most important step.

Fans amuse themselves over their demand: Even though really many fans have been calling for a change for a long time and many have even submitted their own thoughtful concepts for adapting this mechanic – the chances of a change are considered low.

destiny-2-abrechnung-kampf

Bungie has not commented on this matter so far. However, almost all corresponding threads are filled with sarcastic comments from fans. Here are just a few of them:

  • “That won’t happen. Then swords and shotguns would be fun again.”
  • “Bungie has heard you. All weapons will now be nerfed to match swords.”
  • “Thank you for your feedback, Guardians. A thousand voices and Perfected Outbreak will be nerfed to sword level in the next patch”
  • “Bungie: Wait, you want us to buff the Boss Stomp? Sure. Meanwhile, we will nerf everything else that makes the game fun”

Asmongold conquers Twitch by tackling increasingly difficult dungeons in WoW Classic

Benedict Grothaus Benedict Grothaus Reading time 2 minutes

The Twitch streamer Asmongold is currently experiencing a huge influx of viewers through his content in WoW Classic. He is constantly facing greater challenges, which apparently are very well received.

This is shown by Asmongold: Asmongold has recently been showing his viewers more and more dungeon runs while playing the beta of WoW Classic. It started with the iconic dungeon The Dead Mines, which he was able to attract nearly 100,000 viewers.

He has worked his way up over time and recently defeated the Armory of the Scarlet Monastery, a dungeon that is actually far too difficult. Because the dungeon is designed for level 35 and above. However, the maximum level of the beta is level 30.

Now Asmongold has raised the stakes and tackled the hardest dungeon: The Cathedral of the Monastery with the famous boss High Inquisitor Sally Whitemane. For the run, his team needed only about one and a half hours as shown in his Twitch video. Below we have embedded a slightly shortened video for you.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhDV68FN6nE

This is how he completes the dungeons

These tricks are used by Asmongold: Since the dungeons are actually far too difficult, Asmongold must rely on a few tricks with his team. He himself plays as a warrior tank, who only absorbs the roughest damage.

Together with two hunters, a healing priest, and a paladin, he actually just pulls the enemies back and forth while they die from the constant damage. He “kites” them.

The greatest damage is dealt by the two hunters. The paladin fills a role that no longer exists today: The supporter. He only ensures that all others become even stronger through buffs and debuffs and refrains from personal damage.

It’s going so well that Asmongold is even in the mood for some coarse jokes:

Can I do this too? In principle, anyone can replicate such runs. At the moment, however, you need access to the beta of WoW Classic, which is only being distributed limitedly.

In the stress tests that are also taking place, this will not be possible for now. The last stress test restricted players to level 5, so they could never complete the dungeons. There were other highlights instead.

In these two weeks alone, Asmongold received almost 90,000 additional followers. These are strong numbers, especially considering that he actually wanted to quit WoW:

Fans find a hint about when WoW continues with the big patch 8.2

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

A few clever fans of WoW have found a good hint about when Patch 8.2 might finally be released.

In World of Warcraft, most players are eagerly waiting for the release of the next major update. The Patch 8.2 Rise of Azshara has been on the PTR for many weeks and is being extensively tested. However, the player base is slowly becoming restless, with more and more people complaining that there is nothing to do and that Artifact Power is simply wasted.

It seems that players have found a possible release date in the shutdown of the “Refer a Friend” system.

The “Refer a Friend” system in retirement: The “Refer a Friend” system in World of Warcraft will soon be shut down to be revamped. The shutdown date is June 11, 2019 – a Tuesday. After that, it will no longer be possible to refer friends in WoW and receive special rewards.

Shutdown just before the patch? Players now suspect that the shutdown of the system is directly related to the launch of Patch 8.2. After all, the system is being shut down on a Tuesday, which is just a few hours before a Wednesday. Wednesday is the typical patch day in World of Warcraft. Traditionally, maintenance occurs on Wednesdays, and patches are also deployed then.

WoW Azshara Patch 82 title

Big changes require a patch: Fans assume that a patch will be needed to disable the “Refer a Friend” system in the game. After all, referring can currently also be done in-game through the social menu. To remove this feature, a patch is required. This aligns with past experiences.

Blizzard has not confirmed this yet, but usually announces release dates for patches only a few days in advance. In a few days, we will know if there is any truth to this theory.

Do you think Patch 8.2 will be released on June 12? Or does the update need more polishing before it can be released?

The Division 2 now has its own “Loot Cave”, like Destiny 1 did

Tarek Zehrer Tarek Zehrer Reading time 2 minutes

In keeping with the tradition of many loot shooters, The Division 2 is not spared from some exploits. There is now a “Loot Cave,” a spot where you can endlessly farm mobs for better gear.

What are Loot Caves? These loot caves became very infamous after the release of Destiny 1 in 2014 and remain so to this day.

Players could endlessly shoot at a spawn point of enemies at certain spots, thus killing monsters without end and with minimal effort, which yielded tons of loot and experience.

Now a similar bug has appeared in The Division 2. We summarize all the information on this.

division-highend

The Division 2 has a Loot Cave

In The Division 2, players discovered a bug that works just like the Loot Caves from Destiny.

This is the Loot Cave of The Division 2:

  • The spot in question is in the mission “Bank Headquarters.”
  • You can find it in a section where you need to activate and defend a laptop
  • Instead of standing at the terminal and completing the loading process, you should stay at the point where the enemies spawn
  • Along with your team, you must eliminate them as quickly as possible so they don’t overwhelm you
  • This should be done on Hard or Challenging difficulty to increase the drop chance for high-end gear.

You can also watch how it works in the video by InigoMontoya:

Remove the Loot Cave or keep it in the game?

What players say about the Loot Cave: On YouTube and in the subreddit of The Division 2, most commentators seem to be happy about the Loot Cave.

  • Many are already busy farming and leveling their other characters up to max level.
  • They appreciate the opportunity to easily get a lot of loot.
  • However, not all players are enthusiastic. User meleestylz writes: “The people who gain such an advantage are the same people who complain that there is nothing left to do in the game.”
the-division-2-kapitol

Many fans are also upset that another major bug has become known. There are already issues with a glitch that makes players nearly unkillable.

The Loot Cave is yet another item on the currently long list of bugs in The Division 2. Therefore, its discovery does not contribute positively to the mood.

Overall, opinions are divided.

What do you think? Do you want to keep the Loot Cave in the game, or should Massive take action against it?

This is why some MMORPG fans are now dreaming of WildStar as a private server

Alexander Leitsch Alexander Leitsch Reading time 3 minutes

In November 2018, the MMORPG WildStar was closed by Carbine Studios. Since then, players have made great efforts to revive the game on private servers.

Where does the enthusiasm for WildStar come from? WildStar was a hardcore MMORPG that presented players with significant challenges in raids and dungeons. A major highlight for many players was the housing system, which ranked among the best in the genre.

In the “Goodbye, Wildstar” thread on Reddit, many players reported how well the game implemented particularly the combat system and the instances.

From their perspective, there is currently no MMORPG on the market that can build on these strengths. Therefore, they hope for future private servers.

WIldStar Discovery Costumes

The state of private servers

Are there already private servers? Currently, several teams of fans are working on the development of WildStar private servers. One group calls itself Nexus Forever and has already started a website, where currently no playable version can be found.

The other group, Arctium, already has “World of Warcraft” servers. They are also working on WildStar but do not have an openly accessible version on their website either.

WildStar Draken Line

What are the chances for private servers? The team behind Nexus Forever has published all game-related data on GitHub. The emulator is written in C# and contains the last patch of WildStar before the game was closed.

Theoretically, anyone can now run a private server with Visual Studio 2017, their own server, and the WildStar client. Many contents already function smoothly. These include, among others:

  • Walking through the world
  • The chat and contacts
  • Skills
  • Mounts
  • Mail system
  • And even some old addons created by players for WildStar.

On the other hand, content like housing is already available but not yet complete. Raids and many quests are still missing. Tests with private servers are already underway, but access requires contacts with the respective developers.

Regular updates on a future server from Nexus Forever and the game files in general can be found on their Discord server.

WildStar Companion

Too colorful, too hard, too crazy?

What caused WildStar to fail? After the closure of the MMORPG we asked you on MeinMMO what caused WildStar’s failure. Many agreed that the setting and thus the target audience were too specific.

The mix of a colorful world, too much humor and chaos, and also the high difficulty level deterred some of our readers. Not everyone found the action-based combat system optimal for an MMORPG.

Nevertheless, WildStar had a fan community, which even tried to save the MMORPG with a petition. Cortyn was also saddened by the closure.

Developer plays Battlefield 5 so well that his own team kicks him: Turn off Aimbot

Sven Galitzki Sven Galitzki Reading time 2 minutes

A developer was kicked by his teammates in a match of Battlefield 5, his own game, apparently due to his strong performance.

What happened? Recently, Florian Le Bihan, a Core Gameplay Designer at DICE, lamented to fans on Twitter. He was kicked from the squad during an ongoing match of Battlefield 5 – basically in his own game. This apparently hurt the feelings of the dev.

What was the reason for the kick? Apparently, his skill became his downfall – once again. As an explanation for the kick, Le Bihan, known as dRUNKKZ3, posted another screenshot. There he was asked to turn off his aimbot.

He played so well that he was considered a cheater. A few minutes later, the kick followed.

von Patrick Freese

Did the dev cheat? That is very unlikely. As a developer, he would hardly risk his reputation with the community and possibly even his job. Also, when he was called a hacker by a user in the comments, Le Bihan said he would get really angry.

While we can’t verify this 100%, dRUNKKZ3 did make the story public himself.

On another note – what some may not know – he has a successful background as a Pro Gamer (via ea.com) and is truly skilled in shooters. dRUNKKZ3 is well-known for his generally impressive skills, some impossible shots, and his successes in the Battlefield series.

Moreover, it wasn’t the first time his skills caused him trouble. Shortly after the launch of Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, the Battlefield 5 dev was banned there. At that time, his strong performance was apparently the reason for the ban. After publicly complaining about it on Twitter and posting some videos of his spectacular skills to his “defense,” Treyarch quickly lifted the ban.

Now he is apparently so good in his own game that he was accused of cheating by his own squad mates and ultimately kicked out for that reason.

This is how fans are reacting: Most fans are taking his announcement humorously.

Many believe that his teammates probably didn’t know who he really is. Because how else can one throw away this “secure free ticket to the best squad of the match” just like that.

Others jokingly note that only noobs were allowed in that squad, so that the other members could shine better.

Some point out that they used to believe (for example in Battlefield 1) that dRUNKKZ3 was cheating. Until they engaged with his background as a pro and experienced some of his skills.

That is why there are now more gyms in Pokémon GO for the important EX Raids

Noah Struthoff Noah Struthoff Reading time 2 minutes

In Pokémon GO there are more EX Raid Gyms! This also means that the chance for an EX Raid is now noticeably increasing. We will tell you what it’s all about.

What are these new Gyms? The new EX Raid Gyms are all Gyms that have only recently been added to the game. For the first time, there have been EX Raid invitations for these Gyms.

That’s good because some places have now received their first EX Raid Gym. They can finally rely on the special raids in their own town and do not have to migrate to other locations.

EX Raids in Pokémon GO – What’s new?

Why are there new EX Raid Gyms now? This is an update that happens regularly. Also, new EX Raid Gyms were added a few months ago. The possible EX Raid Gyms have simply been updated.

Pokémon GO EX Raid January 9
This is what the invitations for EX Raids look like.

But these are only new Gyms that fit the pattern of EX Raid Gyms. For example, they must be located in parks. Gyms that are situated alongside streets do not trigger EX Raids.

What does it mean for players? You should try to trigger an EX Raid at the new Gyms within parks. This should now be possible. Pay attention to the symbol in the upper corner of the Gym. If it says “EX Raid Gym”, it should be able to trigger such a raid.

Marking
The marking appears in the upper right corner

In order to trigger an EX Raid, you need to host multiple raids at this Gym. Only when enough players have raided at this Gym will an EX Raid be triggered.

Why are EX Raids important? These raids currently feature the different forms of Deoxys. Currently, you can get the defense form of the monster from them.

Deoxys cannot be obtained by any other means. You also cannot trade it. So if you want a complete Pokédex, you should participate in an EX Raid.

In the regular raid you will soon find Cresselia. We will show you the best counters:

This bug even makes one of the least popular legends in Apex Legends useful

Benedict Grothaus Benedict Grothaus Reading time 2 minutes

Players have discovered a bug in Apex Legends that significantly enhances Mirage when combined with Wraith. While this doesn’t appear to be intentional, it has gained a lot of support.

This is the legend in question: We are talking about the legend Mirage. Mirage has a tough time in the Apex Legends community and is considered one of the worst and least useful legends.

Why is Mirage unpopular? When Mirage uses his ultimate ability, he becomes invisible and creates decoys of himself. However, he cannot shoot during this time, which is why many players see him as extremely weak. Fans are hoping for more and see untapped potential.

This combo makes Mirage stronger: For Mirage to become “stronger,” he needs a Wraith on his team. The ultimate ability of the legend Wraith is a portal that she opens at two locations on the map, which can be used by her, her team, and enemies.

If Mirage enters Wraith’s portal while he is invisible, he remains cloaked for a few seconds but can shoot. This is impressively shown in a video on reddit:

Link to the Reddit content

Is this intentional? It seems that this combo is more of a bug than an intended feature. The developers have since agreed that Mirage should receive a buff, but since this occurs after going through the portal, it appears to be a mistake.

Other players report that the same effect occurs when Mirage uses the Zip-Line from Pathfinder while he is invisible. This also points more towards a bug.

Some reddit users are not even sure if Mirage really stays invisible, or if it is just a display bug for the player. The only clue is that the downed Lifeline apparently does not notice him.

apex-mirage

How the community responds: The video and the combo itself carry more weight for many fans. They have long wished for a better ultimate for Mirage and the ability to shoot while cloaked would be exactly what they want. One user writes on reddit:

This is how the ultimate should be. When Mirage fires his weapon, the invisibility stops and everyone should be able to see him. In its current state, I just wish that you could cancel the invisibility.

Bill_Dexhart on reddit

The community’s desire for a stronger ultimate for Mirage is clearly there. Whether Respawn has such changes in mind is still unknown. However, such plans will likely be better communicated in the future:

This is partly due to the player selection, which doesn’t offer much, as the season is already over in the major leagues. And partly due to the new TOTS cards, which with their extremely high ratings overshadow the TOTW cards.

The release of TOTW 37: On May 29, 2019, at 7 PM, the new Inform cards of TOTW 37 will be released. The cards will be available in packs for one week.

Keep in mind that the predictions are never 100 % reliable. There can be significant differences from the actual TOTW from EA.

Stats for new weapon “Burst SMG” leaked in Fortnite – Can it replace the Pump?

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time 2 minutes

In Fortnite: A new weapon has leaked. According to a leak, we now know what the new Burst SMG looks like and how much damage it does.

What is the Burst SMG? Since Update 9.10, the data for a new weapon has been in the game. Dataminers have now found and released them. Therefore, the new weapon likely has the following stats:

  • Rarity: Gray/Green/Blue
  • Damage: 23/24/25
  • Fire Rate: 3.4
  • Magazine: 20 (Probably light ammunition)

The weapon is, like the Combat Shotgun and the tactical assault rifle, designed for short distances. It loses about a third of its damage at medium range and over half at long ranges.

https://twitter.com/SlqthyLeaks/status/1131170026457915392

With the fast fire rate, it should deal a lot of damage at close range if all shots hit.

The Burst SMG is again a weapon in Season 9 that shines with fast follow-up and good damage at close range but is less effective at long distances. Epic wants you to get close to the enemy and flush them out of cover.

Players Laugh at New Weapon

This is what the fans say about the Burst SMG: The fans on Reddit are not particularly impressed with the new weapon so far. On Reddit, some players are already joking about the weapon’s design:

  • “This is a stapler.”
  • “This is not a weapon; this is a device for piercing holes in your ears.”
  • “Looks like an automatic hot glue gun.”

Fans are also skeptical about the stats. The single shot damage is too low, and they do not want another close-range weapon. They simply don’t see how the Burst SMG is different from the apparently very similar tactical assault rifle.

fortnite-waffen-taktisches-sturmgewehr
Will the Burst SMG stand out from the tactical assault rifle?

Will this be the new shotgun? Other players on Reddit see the weapon as an SMG that wants to be a shotgun, as the damage per shot reminds them of the individual shotgun pellets from the good old shotgun that was removed in Season 9.

Perhaps the Burst SMG will ultimately find a meaningful niche in Fortnite and replace the shotgun.

When will the new weapon come? So far, we only know about the leak. The weapon has not been announced in the game. Additionally, some players suspect that it will only appear in the PvE mode Save the World, as the stats also contain information about values like “durability” that only exist in PvE.

However, this may also be redundant data, as the weapon may occur in both modes.

Dauntless is free-to-play and has been overwhelmed – How to save the release

Benedict Grothaus Benedict Grothaus Reading time 3 minutes

After Dauntless transitioned from beta to official release, there were many reports of issues from the community. However, the developers have been working to fix everything, and now the game is in a really good place.

These were the issues: After the release of Dauntless on May 21, 2019, there were ongoing complaints from players about disconnections or bugs in the game. The most common problems included:

  • Microtransactions that could not be completed or took a long time
  • Unstable connections to the servers
  • Errors with friend lists and the social menu, preventing any co-op play with other Slayers
  • Overcrowded servers with long queues
Dauntless-Slayers
Many players wanted to play in groups – but that wasn’t possible.

Where did the problems come from? Especially the overcrowded servers led to players having to wait for more than three hours before they could play again, according to the developers at Pheonix Labs, because over 500,000 players had already signed up for the release.

However, that was not the main problem. The influx of players only highlighted weaknesses and bugs in the game that the developers could only address after they appeared, as the Head of Publishing Nick Clifford said to Kotaku:

Many of these issues aren’t found until players show up. Until that happens, it’s hard to see and address these problems.

Nick Clifford to Kotaku

However, the crossplay between Xbox One, PS4, and PC, praised by many, was not to blame for the problems.

Dauntless-Slayers
Too many newcomers? Not the problem, but a problem.

How the developers reacted: The developers frequently tweeted about the status of the game and the condition of the servers to ensure transparency and to show players that they were addressing the issues.

They apparently worked on technical solutions and continuously increased server capacity so that more players could play at the same time and the queue would be reduced. They also addressed other technical issues, and the official Twitter account tweeted daily service updates.

This is how Dauntless stands now

How does Dauntless stand? The improvements are also reflected in the community. The subreddit for Dauntless is filling up with memes about the queues and the overloaded servers. However, there are also some posts that revolve around the actual game and users who are grateful for that:

It’s nice that the subreddit is usable again and we can really talk about Dauntless. I can finally come back.

Diribiri on reddit

Also on Twitch, the rising popularity of Dauntless is evident. According to Sullygnome, on May 26, over 12,000 people were watching Dauntless at the same time. The number of viewers is growing daily and has reached a level that Dauntless has not seen since last August 2018.

Dauntless Data via Sullygnome on Twitch

However, Dauntless is still far from the absolute peak of over 70,000 viewers in August 2017, shortly after the launch of the alpha.

Why can’t we use the event? The Beta of Wizards Unite is currently only running in New Zealand and Australia. You can download the game here via an APK, but you can’t really play it. Because here, there are no points to interact with.

That’s why you can be excited: The event proves that the developers are generally planning such events. Pokémon GO, which comes from the same developer, thrives mainly through its events. Thus, it is all the more important that such events also occur in Wizards Unite.

First Event in Wizards Unite – What it means for you

What kind of event is this? With the name “Fantastic Flora and Fauna”, the first event is coming to Wizards Unite. In it, Hagrid seeks help from the players. The Forbidden Forest has lost numerous creatures from the flora and fauna. The players then have to find and return these in the real world.

Event Announcement
This is how the first event in Wizards Unite is announced.

That’s why such an event is good: The game isn’t even playable worldwide yet, and the developers are already rolling out the first event. This shows that they have many ideas around Wizards Unite.

When you compare this with Pokémon GO, you can already see significant progress. Pokémon GO was released in July 2016. Only at the end of October 2016, during Halloween, did the first event occur in the game. This took much longer.

Events always attract the most players in Pokémon GO. So it is good to see that Niantic is also planning such events in Wizards Unite. This certainly means that we can expect another event very soon.

Event Pokémon GO
In October 2016, the first event in Pokémon GO was released during Halloween.

When will Wizards Unite come to Germany? The beta is currently only being actively tested in 2 other countries. When the game will come to Germany is not known. However, it is certain that the game will officially be released this summer.

Have you seen the latest teaser?

Destiny 2 has put a lot of work into a princess that no one has seen yet

Sven Galitzki Sven Galitzki Reading time 3 minutes

Fans have stumbled upon a detailed sculpture of a Cabal princess, which took a lot of work. Yet in Destiny 2 she has yet to be found. Now players wonder: Is she possibly waiting for the Guardians in the new raid?

This model is about: Currently, there is a popular thread on Reddit discussing the community’s latest find. Some fans have come across a special Cabal model on ArtStation.

The model depicts the female Cabal “Caiatl” accompanied by two Cabal war dogs, according to the labels.

Source: Alexis Velazquez, Senior Character Artist BUNGIE

On the one hand, the difference from the male Cabal is highlighted. Female space turtles are larger and have upward curved tusks. On the other hand, the figure is interesting for other reasons. Some fans believe that we might meet Caiatl soon.

Who is Caiatl anyway? Caiatl is the daughter of the Cabal Emperor Calus himself, whom the Guardians encounter during the Leviathan raid . According to lore, she holds the rank of a princess and was part of the group that led the coup against her father Calus to overthrow the Emperor. Since then, he wants to see her dead.

However, since the rise of Dominus Ghaul, whom the Guardians defeated in Destiny 2’s main campaign, Caiatl’s whereabouts remain unclear.

Source: Alexis Velazquez, Senior Character Artist BUNGIE

What makes the Caiatl figure so interesting right now? Fans find it interesting that the plastic sculpture is very elaborate and detailed. It is obvious that a lot of work went into the figure. However, at the time of the photos (almost 2 years ago), it was apparently not yet completely finished.

But if you know Bungie, you know that the studio does not waste resources, some Guardians think. It seems strange to put so much effort into a figure that has yet to be found in the game.

While it is possible that the introduction of the princess was discarded. In the lore, she plays an important role in the coup against Calus. Additionally, according to lore, she is one of the “traitors” that Calus has not yet dealt with. Many believe that the Cabal princess is still alive.

A fan has also envisioned the female Cabal: Check out this sexy version of Emperor Calus in Destiny 2

Will we soon have to kill Calus’s daughter? Apart from the start, Bungie has not revealed much about the new raid “Crown of Sorrow”. However, there are several clues pointing to a Cabal setting and the return to the Leviathan, the gigantic ship of Emperor Calus.

You can find out more here: Facts, rumors, theories – What we know so far about Season 7

Some fans are now speculating that they might encounter the Cabal princess in this context. Or at least in the story surrounding Season 7. After all, she seems to still be alive and Calus still wants to see her dead according to lore. Some now consider it possible that the Guardians might take on this task.

That content can take a while before it comes to the game is also evidenced by the mission “The Hour Zero”:

Final Fantasy XIV Player Numbers 2019: MMORPG has 16 million registered users

Irina Moritz Irina Moritz Reading time 2 minutes

Director Yoshida has announced that his MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV has now surpassed 16 million players. However, this number does not exclusively represent active players. How many people are currently playing the MMORPG?

These are the official numbers: There is currently calm before the storm in Square Enix’s MMORPG. In just under a month, the next major expansion Shadowbringers will be released, bringing tons of new content.

final fantasy xiv crystarium
Crystarium will be one of the new cities in FFXIV: Shadowbringers

Accordingly, the game has surpassed the threshold of 16 million registered users. Compared to August 2018, the MMORPG has gained approximately another 2 million users, which sounds like a lot. However, this includes not only active accounts but also:

  • Inactive accounts that no longer have active subscriptions
  • Trial accounts that do not own the full version of FFXIV
  • Bot accounts that will eventually be banned

How many active players does Final Fantasy XIV have? It is difficult to say how many active players Final Fantasy XIV actually has because Square Enix does not publish those numbers.

Unofficial census sites estimate the number of active players paying a subscription to be around 600,000. However, how reliable this estimate is cannot be determined. Therefore, it should be taken with caution.

final fantasy xiv titania kampf
Titania will be one of the new Primals that players will have to fight in Shadowbringers

What do the finances say? In the financial report to investors for the year 2019, Square Enix noted that revenues from the sales of FFXIV had declined. However, revenues from the ongoing subscriptions for the game remained stable during that period.

The decline in sales is not surprising, as the MMORPG did not release a new expansion in 2019. Therefore, it can be assumed that the numbers will rise again with the release of Shadowbringers on July 2, 2019.

PUBG player showcases divine gameplay, celebrated as ‘Asian Shroud’

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 2 minutes

Some call it “deleted scene from John Wick 3”, others just “wtf”. With his impressive skills, this PUBG (PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds) earned considerable respect in the community.

What gameplay is being celebrated? On the livestreaming website Twitch.TV, the player goes by “슬라시” or Slash_tv. Recently, he played the popular battle royale shooter PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. A clip of his gameplay is currently popular on Reddit. They compare him to the shooter god “Shroud”.

However, Slash_tv is not yet a big name on Twitch. As of now (27.05. – 10:10 AM), he has about 271 followers. Far from the 6.4 million accounts that follow Shroud on Twitch.tv.

In the following clip, the player demonstrates that he has a lot of skill and takes on multiple opponents at once and dominates them. So the comparison to Shroud is quite appropriate.

This is happening in the game:

  • First, the player shoots at a motorcyclist
  • Then, a car rushes toward him and he quickly jumps into the pickup truck he was previously seeking cover behind
  • Then he jumps out of the vehicle and shoots both occupants
  • In the meantime, a player sneaks up behind him, whom Slash_tv then takes down
  • Now, the motorcyclist who was shot at first has probably reached the top of the hill. He gets taken down as well
  • Another player runs up the hill and gets gunned down by Slash_tv while being shot in the back himself. Then he takes out another one
  • The player who shot him in the back is now also eliminated with the help of the scope
  • Slash_tv now has 7 kills after this action

This is what the players say: The clip is currently very popular on Reddit. It was simply called “wtf” on Twitch and “Deleted scene from John Wick 3” on Reddit.

  • “Asian Shroud” writes one player and gets a lot of support for it. The response: “This is about Shroud, to be honest. He had practical eyes in mind”.
  • “Jesus Christ, is that Jason Bourne”
  • “Holy shit… what was that? A 1v7? Good God…”
  • “He’s insane”

According to analyses from the Reddit community, slash_tv played a squad game here and took out enemy teams.

Now, there is curiosity about whether more strong plays from the player will be seen in the future.

What do you think about the clip? Are you impressed by the skills, and can the player take on Shroud?

In The Division 2, a glitch causes trouble, making players almost unbreakable

Tarek Zehrer Tarek Zehrer Reading time 2 minutes

In The Division 2 has a new, serious glitch appeared with the last major update. Thanks to this, some players can run around as nearly indestructible tanks. What is going on?

This glitch is causing problems: The glitch is related to the players’ armor. Under the right circumstances, you can achieve armor values that are much higher than the otherwise possible rolls.

Some players are taking advantage of the bug to become incredibly resilient and stroll through PvE and PvP. However, the glitch only occurs in the Dark Zone and Conflict.

The glitch massively increases armor

What does this glitch do? This allows armor values of over 700,000, according to some players even over 1 million, to be possible.

For comparison: With most builds, the armor value should range between 180,000 and 250,000. So anyone taking advantage of the glitch becomes a mega-tank and has an unfair advantage.

How can the glitch occur? However, you can only apply the glitch in the Dark Zone and in PvP, as it is related to the normalization of values.

How exactly this works is something you will have to find out for yourself. We do not want to provide a guide for a serious glitch. Currently, it is already being exploited by many, so be careful when you jump into PvP duels.

If you should try the glitch yourself: Be aware that exploiting glitches could be punished by the developer. There were already issues with glitches and exploits in The Division 1. Proven users of such issues have been banned in many cases.

the-division-2-pvp

Players warn against entering the Dark Zone

This is how the community reacts: Most players are not thrilled by such glitches.

  • In the Subreddit of The Division 2, some are already reporting that they were killed by users of the glitch in PvP.
  • The Dark Zone does not have a good reputation among many players, as a comment shows: “Just another reason to stay away from the Dark Zone, the [situation] is slowly resembling The Division 1 more and more.”
  • In a Reddit post, even one of the top PvP players on Xbox One is accused with a screenshot of exploiting the glitch.
  • Overall, the glitch is not contributing positively to the current sentiment of The Division 2.

What does the developer say? So far there is no official statement from Massive. However, such issues likely have the highest priority.

Have you had problems in PvP yourself? Let us know in the comments.

What does the community think of the MMORPG? The MMORPG is already playable in Korea. Players describe it as a mix between the MMORPGs AION and TERA. There are still some issues such as loading times and a somewhat uncomfortable map, but generally, the game is well-received in Korea.

It seems we have an interesting online RPG ahead of us, which can shine especially through the Astell system. However, no one should expect groundbreaking innovations.

Starting June 25, we can also see how Astellia plays.

Why vacuum robots are now the new trend in Warframe

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time 2 minutes

Warframe is known for strange and absurd things. So it is not really surprising that there are now automatic vacuum robots that are surprisingly popular with players.

What is the deal with the vacuum robots in Warframe? With the new Update Jovian Concord for Warframe came a new item for your spaceship. The Domestic Drones. They are essentially nothing else but automatic vacuum robots. Players have already affectionately named them “Space Roombas,” after the market-leading manufacturer of vacuum robots in real life.

Why are the vacuum robots so popular? The vacuum robots drive around in your lovingly decorated spaceship and keep it clean (although the ship doesn’t actually get visibly dirty). Otherwise, they do nothing apart from making noise.

https://twitter.com/HamelsDragon/status/1131471874955907072

But players have noticed that the little robots have cute little “happy face” emojis on their displays when they are working. After all, they are products of the greedy Corpus corporation, which has hardwired “fun in mindless cleaning” into the programming of the drones.

Bug causes hordes of Space Roombas

How to get such a vacuum drone: The Domestic Drone can only be obtained via the cash shop or by trading with other players. At 100 platinum, the cute robots cost just under 5 euros. So if you don’t have a lot of money to spare, you probably won’t have too many of the drones.

Still, players post pictures with dozens of these cute little companions online. What’s going on?

This is how players populate their ships with countless “Space Roombas”: If you want to buy an item in Warframe, you can also see a preview of what it will look like in the game.

This means that there is actually a small vacuum robot zooming around your ship just like in the original. And now imagine that you request this preview over and over again.

Then you quickly have a horde of cute little Space Roombas that keep your ship clinically clean like a herd of metallic cleaning fanatics. And they make a hell of a noise.

Still, players think it’s cool and post pictures and videos of their Space Roomba experiences online.

It just leaves the question of what your Space Cats say about it and whether Kavats react similarly to vacuum cleaners as real cats do.

DayZ surprisingly released on PS4 – players say it is too early

Andreas Bertits Andreas Bertits Reading time 2 minutes

Zombie hunting in DayZ is coming to PlayStation 4 soon. In just a few days you can get started on Sony’s console. But in what condition will the title be released?

When does DayZ start? On May 29, DayZ will be released for PS4. That’s almost a year after the release of the Xbox One version.

What is the cost? A price has not yet been announced.

dayz-screen

The zombies are coming to PS4

What does the game offer? It follows the gameplay known from the PC version.

  • You are one of the few survivors of the zombie apocalypse
  • In the fictional Russian region of Chernarus, you try to survive
  • You gather resources to craft weapons or shelters and everything else you need
  • Not only the undead make your life difficult, you also have to be careful whom you trust
  • Other players can ambush you or betray you
  • It’s also possible to form teams, as together you have better chances of survival

What is special about the announcement? The release date suddenly appeared on the list of games being released on May 29 via PSN. There was no prior announcement from the developers at Bohemia Interactive. Even in the official forum, there is no statement.

Is the game in good condition?

What is the community currently discussing? Many players believe that DayZ is still not in a state that can be called a release version. Even the relaunch of the game did not bring the hoped-for improvements. There are still plenty of bugs. Accordingly, fans are wondering why the game is now being released as version 1.0 for PS4.

  • Maomss says on Reddit: “Way too early but there’s nothing we can do about it. It’ll just be another broken console release.”
  • specter491 says: “The game is not in a version 1.0 state. I can no longer reliably swap my weapons in the hotbar.”
  • Asmondian agrees: “I don’t think the game is finished.”

Why the game could be in better condition than thought: Sony is known for not releasing unfinished games. The company usually ensures that titles are in a well-playable condition. That doesn’t mean that Sony only releases bug-free games, but the titles must reach a certain standard before they are released.

Therefore, it is quite conceivable that DayZ will be released on PS4 in a better condition than many may fear. How the survival game plays, we will see on May 29.

Fortnite: The World Cup Qualifiers for Twitch Stars – Tfue shines, Ninja does not

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 3 minutes

On the weekend, the 7th round of the qualification for the lucrative Fortnite World Championship took place. This time it was played solo. Once again, Twitch star Ninja is left behind. On the other hand, strong performance from Tfue, who seems to be clearing his head. We are looking at the standings of the Fortnite World Championship Week 7.

How many chances are left? On the weekend, round 7 of the qualification took place:

  • This was the penultimate chance for solo players to qualify for the World Championship
  • Duo players have 2 chances left for the World Championship in weeks 8 and 10

The qualification theoretically becomes easier from week to week, as the top players qualify and no longer compete for the last spots, yet the competition is fierce, as two of the biggest streamers in the world experienced.

How did Ninja perform? To qualify for the Fortnite World Championship, Ninja needed 58 points over the weekend, but he was likely far from it. He managed to play into Sunday, but it wasn’t enough for a spot in the top 100 of his division.

A comment came via Twitter: “I started off so well and then got caught twice in the game with a heavy sniper rifle.”

However, Ninja is still looking forward to the duo rounds next week with his partner.

How did Reverse2k do? Ninja’s duo partner for the Fortnite World Championship, Reverse2k, had a much better weekend than Ninja. He secured 2nd place in NA East with 69 points, thus booking a ticket for the Fortnite World Championship. This guarantees him $50,000.

Reverse2k suddenly came into the spotlight of Fortnite as an “unknown player” in August 2018 because he performed excellently in a tournament and received a touching call from his father.

How did Tfue do: There is currently a lot of commotion around player Turner “Tfue” Tenney, the second major Fortnite streamer besides Ninja. He had a great weekend at the solo qualifiers, finishing in 5th place.

This would theoretically qualify him again for New York. But he had already achieved this two weeks ago.

Tfue and his partner Cloak now have two chances left to qualify as a duo for the World Championship.

https://twitter.com/TTfue/status/1132439065939333125

Tfue managed to qualify solo despite a lot of trouble with his clan FaZe and issues with the pirate cannon: He struggled with the cannon over the weekend and was at times quite frustrated.

One of the most successful streamers in Fortnite: Myth

What about Myth? The number 3 Fortnite streamer on Twitch, TSM_Myth, has not yet qualified for the Fortnite World Championship like Ninja. Although he managed to play into Sunday, he then expressed his grievances on Twitter.
