In week 5 of season 6 in Fortnite: Battle Royale, you need to drive past five different radar devices at a speed of at least 27 or faster. But where are the signs and how do you drive fast enough? We have a map with all the locations of the speed cameras in Fortnite.
What is the challenge about? In week 5 of season 6, one task is “Get detected by various radar devices at a speed of at least 27.” Such signs can be found occasionally on the roads of Fortnite, and when you drive past them in a vehicle, your speed will be recorded.
Where are the different radar devices on the map?
How to find the radar signs: The exact locations of the speed indicators are listed here for you:
I7 – Between racetrack and Paradise Palms: There is a radar device at the curve on the road.
H9 – Southern road in the desert: There is also a sign on the long stretch in the south of the desert.
G4 – South of the tunnel to Tomato Temple: When you drive north to Tomato Temple from Dusty Divot, you will find a radar device right in front of the tunnel.
E5 – Between Tilted Towers and Pleasant Park: There is a radar device right on the border of squares E4 and E5.
E3 – West of Lazy Links: Drive west along the southern road from the golf course and you will find a radar device at the roadside.
All locations on the map: Here we have also embedded a map for you, showing all the locations of the radar devices.
Locations in the video: If you want to see exactly where the radar devices are, you can watch this video.

To reach the required 27 speed units at the radar devices, you need a vehicle. On foot, you can only manage 12. Ideally, you get a golf cart or a quad that are usually nearby.
Where can I find vehicles? Here you will find the spawn points of quads and golf carts.
How do I know if I’m fast enough? As soon as you have broken the speed limit, you will also hear a police siren as a cue for your success.
Watch out, snipers: But be careful while speeding, so that no one takes you down from behind or that you are not bothered by zombies that have recently appeared in Fortnite.
The open beta of Black Desert Online on Xbox One starts this November. Fans will be able to try out some classes during the open beta.
It has been known since early 2017 that Pearl Abyss is working on a console port of Black Desert Online for Xbox One. Accordingly, fans had to wait a long time for the open beta of the MMO.
Open beta starts in November
The long wait is over: Until now, Pearl Abyss has been very vague about the open beta. The publisher talked about a beta at the end of 2018. However, some players have now received emails mentioning the upcoming open beta from Pearl Abyss.
When does the open beta start? Players will be able to roam the world of Black Desert on Xbox One starting November 8, 2018.
What can you expect in the open beta? During the open beta, players will be able to play different classes including the Berserker, the Ranger, the Sorceress, the Warrior, and the Wizard. The development team also promises special events and life skills (crafting abilities in Black Desert).
Pearl Abyss announced the console port of Black Desert alongside Microsoft at E3 2017. But then it went quiet about Black Desert on Xbox, and nothing happened for a year. At E3 2018, Pearl Abyss then mentioned an open beta in fall 2018. They seem to be keeping that promise now.
Why did Black Desert take so long on Xbox? Pearl Abyss does not mention an official reason. Perhaps this long delay is due to the fact that interest in Black Desert has cooled off somewhat among fans in the West. Recently, there has been increasing criticism of Black Desert from players.
A player challenged the Black Desert CEOs to a fight due to accusations of pay-to-win from the players.
A new enhancement item caused an uproar among players. Kakao Games, the publisher of Black Desert in the West, was accused of pay-to-win.
Kakao Games had issues with some players because they partnered with a controversial streamer.
In Fortnite: Battle Royale, the new challenges from week 5 of season 6 have now been released. See here how to complete all tasks and earn your rewards in the Battle Pass.
Challenge 3 – Deal damage to opponents with the tactical shotgun (hard)
Load and hold: Tactical shotguns are good close-range weapons. It’s best to grab one of these guns at the start of the game and deal damage to opponents up close.
Challenge 4 – Eliminate an opponent from less than 5 meters away (Battle Pass only)
Ideal with shotgun: This task is perfect for the shotgun kill from task 3. The tactical shotgun is ideal for close combat. Alternatively, you can smash your opponents with a pickaxe at the start of the game. And for those who want to be safe, just take out an opponent in a team mode who just went down.
Challenge 5 – Deal damage to opponents with submachine guns (Battle Pass only)
SMGs are good weapons: Submachine guns are still good weapons in the game. You should easily deal 500 damage with them. You don’t have to do it all in the same match.
Challenge 6 – Eliminate an opponent with the minigun (hard, Battle Pass only)
Quite tricky: The minigun is initially rare and not that great at getting kills. The weapon is rather meant for tearing down fortifications. And that works better with the Quad Ram and the Quad Launcher. This task is indeed difficult!
Challenge 7 – Deal damage to opponents with regular pistols (hard, Battle Pass only)
A long way: Pistols are not the best weapons in the game, but you should still be able to deal 200 damage. Ideally, just shoot downed opponents in team mode. Afterwards, follow up with other tasks involving different pistols.
The review embargo for Red Dead Redemption 2 has lifted and first tests and reviews are live. See here how Rockstar’s new western epic performs on Open Critic and Metacritic.
While many players are now counting down the final hours until the release of Red Dead Redemption 2, the first test results are emerging. The reviews on Metacritic paint an extremely positive picture of the game:
This is what the press says: The specialized press is currently praising Red Dead Redemption 2 to the skies. Scores of 100 and good 90 scores are currently the majority. Only occasionally is the game significantly criticized. Thus, Red Dead Redemption 2 currently has an impressive overall score of 97 based on 50 reviews (as of October 25, 2018, 1:45 PM).
This is what players are saying: So far, only selected testers have had the pleasure of testing Red Dead Redemption 2. Therefore, there are currently no user reviews. These are expected no earlier than early morning on October 26, 2018, when Red Dead Redemption 2 officially releases.
Here are a few exemplary ratings for Red Dead Redemption 2.
DualShockers – Rockstar’s deepest and most immersive project
On the site DualShockers, a full 100 points are awarded for Red Dead Redemption 2. The game is said to be particularly strong in the following areas
vibrant, immersive world
storytelling
and unprecedented attention to detail
According to the author, it could even usher in a new era of open-world games, where such attention to detail is expected.
The conclusion is: “Red Dead Redemption 2 has set high goals to deliver a living and breathing world to the players, and it has certainly achieved its aim, being Rockstar’s deepest and most immersive project to date.”
GamePro – What a ride!
On our Webedia partner site GamePro, Red Dead Redemption 2 is rated extremely high with 96 points. Particularly impressive are the large, detailed game world, the varied missions, the enormous content scope, and the truly well-told and twisty story.
The conclusion remains: “Red Dead Redemption 2 is Rockstar’s next masterpiece and the best game of this console generation so far.”
Slant Magazine – In the end, just a backdrop
The weakest rating so far of 70 points was given by Slant Magazine. It criticizes, among other things, the cumbersome controls. The main criticism, however, is that the world makes every effort to seem open and realistic, but in the end is just a backdrop for the player’s adventures.
Everything happens just so that it promises maximum drama for the story. Additionally, the system for repaying one’s bounty is a stark contradiction to the theme of the game.
In World of Warcraft, the wishes of the players are finally being heard. But one thing remains poor: Blizzard’s communication with the players.
Those who have been visiting the official forums of World of Warcraft or the relevant subreddit in recent weeks and months will have noticed the negative general mood: criticism was plentiful regarding Battle for Azeroth.
Many of the endgame systems in WoW were not polished and were riddled with bugs or just a pure “RNG-fest”.
The mood in the community turned, and the attempts of Game Director Ion Hazzikostas to engage directly in dialogue failed. For most players, it resulted in nothing more than “PR talk” that left no one satisfied.
Changes in Response to Community Wishes
Now, however, the developers are responding to much of the criticism and are effectively incorporating the community’s feedback into Patch 8.1 Tides of Vengeance. Here are just a few features and adjustments that will come in the next update:
These and other changes were all initiated by the community or were already requested during the beta of Battle for Azeroth.
That these improvements are finally coming is, of course, pleasing and an important step in the right direction to satisfy the WoW player base again.
The Communication is Dreadful
However, there is a criticism that has not been resolved by this: Blizzard’s communication with the players.
It is virtually nonexistent.
Although the community managers have been reiterating for years that they try to mediate between the developers and the players, respond to feedback, and consider ideas – players experience very little of this.
While other developers almost daily release statements about specific circumstances in the game or discuss changes, Blizzard remains silent.
At Blizzard, there is occasionally a post from the community manager or the monthly “Developer Q&A” where Blizzard responds to questions and answers them in a stream. However, most of the questions asked there are too trivial for the “hardcore” fans who care about mechanics and details.
These streams are clearly aimed at “casuals” who do not follow fan sites and do not search for the latest information every day.
It is, of course, good that the Game Director addresses and informs the players via a stream. However, for “hardcore” players, it is extremely frustrating to see Hazzikostas only in this stream, where he only answers “minor” questions.
Is it Blizzard’s duty to discuss and debate every major change with the community in advance? Definitely not, at the end of the day, it is still “their game” and they decide the development.
But would it help to win back the players' trust? I am sure of that.
A Little More Dialogue Would Have Helped
All the recent months of discontent and negativity (which surely drove some players away) could have been avoided. Blizzard could have simply acknowledged after one or two weeks of intense feedback:
“Yes, we understand your criticisms. The Azerite system has weaknesses. We are currently considering implementing a vendor that you can specifically work towards items. However, this will take until Patch 8.1.”
Just with these two sentences, they could have certainly mitigated and prevented 50% of the negative mood. Because having a change in sight is far better than the months of silence regarding the issue.
What do you think about the current way Blizzard communicates with the players and when?
This is an AI-powered translation. Some inaccuracies might exist.
The second part of Content Patch 4.4 “Prelude in Violet” for Final Fantasy XIV will be released on November 6. The patch will include the next area of Eureka called Pyros. The update will also continue the adventures of the popular detective Hildibrand.
What is Eureka Pyros?Eureka is a mysterious island that is plagued by wild aether storms. While exploring the island, players can gather materials to upgrade job-specific weapons and armor.
This is the equivalent of the relic weapon from previous expansions of FFXIV, which can be continuously improved until they become the strongest equipment in the game at the end of an expansion.
Eureka Pyros is the latest area opening up for players on the island. The area itself divides into two types of landscapes:
Snowy Highlands of Pyros
The volcanic caves inside the mountains, filled with flowing lava.
What is different about Pyros? In the new area of Eureka, new laws and rules apply. To this end, the development team has implemented the Logos System.
The Logos System allows players to use abilities that are not normally available for their current job. For example, a DPS could use the abilities of a tank or healing spells.
These abilities are created by the “Logogram.” There is no exact information on what exactly a Logogram represents. However, it seems to be a kind of puzzle that unlocks different Logos abilities with various combinations.
Players can hold up to three different Logos abilities.
The Logos abilities change depending on the Logogram combinations. Players should collaborate to discover new combinations.
There are more than 30 different Logos abilities.
The Logos abilities will also be very useful in the area after Eureka Pyros.
Eureka Pyros will also include “Dungeons” designed for large numbers of players. The FFXIV team has focused on implementing improvements from previous areas Anemos and Pagos in the development of Pyros.
What is the reward? As a reward for the grind in Eureka Pyros, players will be able to upgrade their elemental weapons and job-specific armors to a higher level.
After the weapon rewards for Eureka Pagos were disappointing, the developers want to adjust the Pyros equipment to the strength of the current gear from the Omega raid.
The confused detective Hildibrand returns
This is happening in the side story: With Patch 4.45, the adventures of the self-proclaimed detective Hildibrand and his crew will continue. Although the notorious thief was caught in the previous quest line, the legendary sword he stole is still missing.
Hildibrand is now on the hunt for the bodyguard Yojinbo, who has taken the sword.
Fans of Final Fantasy XIV are also having fun in other games:
Rockstar has not commented on this yet. No PC version of Red Dead Redemption has been announced. The topic came up recently when Media Markt offered a PC version of RDR 2 for pre-order.
When does the preload start?
The preload has already started. You can directly download Red Dead Redemption 2 after you have purchased it.
Oops, unfortunately this affiliate widget is no longer available.
Xbox One and PS4 download of Red Dead Redemption 2
The vibrant world and the many activities you can engage in require quite a lot of storage on your consoles.
On the support website, Rockstar Games explains:
PlayStation 4: 99 GB of storage is required for the installation on PS4
an additional 50 GB must be temporarily utilized during installation
Xbox One: The installation is said to require 107 GB of storage
So far, Red Dead Redemption 2 at least on Xbox One requires less storage. It only needs 88.1 GB there.
Note for GTA 5 players: If you pre-order digitally in the Microsoft Store or PlayStation Store, you will receive up to 2 million GTA dollars as a bonus.
PS4 Bundle with Red Dead Redemption 2: If you don’t have a console yet and really want to play RDR 2, you can get the PS4 with Red Dead Redemption 2 in a bundle and save money.
RDR 2 Companion App
There will be a mobile app for Red Dead Redemption 2 that runs on Android and iOS devices.
What can the app do? You have access to the map, can zoom in and out, and see interesting places on the map. We introduced the Companion App with its features here:
Do I need to have played the predecessor to understand RDR 2?
No, that’s not necessary. Red Dead Redemption 2 is the prequel to Red Dead Redemption. It is thus the backstory, as it takes place about 12 years before the events of the game from 2010.
Are there no connections? Presumably, there will be a few references here and there. But the story should be understandable for anyone who has had nothing to do with Red Dead Redemption so far.
Typical for Rockstar Games, they forego a voiceover in German.
Is everything in English then? No. The voice output is in English. However, there are German subtitles that will be displayed in the game.
What is it about and how long does the story take?
The story of Red Dead Redemption 2 has only been roughly outlined so far. Rockstar Games provides players with an approximate setting. The rest has to be explored on your own.
The setting: You find yourself in America in the year 1899. At this time, the end of the Wild West era is just breaking. You play as Arthur Morgan, who is on the run with his gang, the Van der Linde gang. You are fleeing because a robbery went wrong.
You will be pursued by bounty hunters and federal agents. To survive, you are supposed to rob, steal, and fight.
Finally, internal disputes threaten to tear the gang apart.
Your decision: You now have to decide whether to stay loyal to the gang you grew up with or to pursue your own ideals.
Is there also a co-op or multiplayer mode in the story? There is no co-op mode for the story. You play the campaign alone. There will be an online mode for Red Dead Redemption 2 called Red Dead Online.
When is the online mode available? This mode will initially be tested as a beta in November. There is no exact date yet.
Does Red Dead Online cost extra money? No. Anyone who owns a copy of Red Dead Redemption 2 can join the mode for free.
Many veterans from The Division 1 will recognize the name Aaron Keener. The return of the rogue agent who made life difficult for us in Manhattan is now confirmed for The Division 2
Which direction is the story of The Division 2 heading? So far, there are hardly any clues. Developer Massive has now confirmed that an important character from The Division 1 will play a role again.
This is now known: At the Ubiday in Japan, a developer revealed that Aaron Keener, a rogue agent, will return in The Division 2. Keener was the main antagonist in The Division 1. They did not want to divulge further details as it would involve spoilers.
We would also like to caution: Anyone who has not yet played through the story of The Division 1 and wants to avoid spoilers should not read further.
Aaron Keener already played an important role in part 1
Anyone who has played through the campaign of The Division 1 will likely remember Keener. For those who do not recall who this guy actually is, we have a story special where you can learn everything about Aaron Keener. Here, however, is a brief summary.
Who is Aaron Keener? Keener is an agent of the first wave sent to New York City after the outbreak of the Dollar Flu to restore order.
That went badly wrong and ended with the agents being left behind in the Dark Zone. Keener took this as an opportunity to turn against the government and make his own decisions. The remaining agents of the first wave were either recruited by him or hunted and killed.
Keener now operated as an enemy of the Division and escaped at the end of the main campaign with important data about the virus.
What is Aaron Keener looking for in Washington D.C.?
Even before the first story video about the downfall of Washington D.C. there was speculation about whether the rogue agent would play a role in The Division 2. This is the first more concrete hint as to who the actual enemy might be.
What goals could Keener pursue? While the story can only be speculated about, his motives are known.
Keener has turned away from the government
and is in possession of important data about the virus that caused the apocalypse.
He has recruited other rogue agents,
engaged in the past with mercenary groups like the Last Man Battalion
and deliberately caused terror.
His motivation is greed for power and influence. Apparently, he hopes to gain this in the former capital. Within the 6 regions of Washington D.C. there must be something that Keener needs.
How exactly his plans are remains to be seen, as we probably won’t know until the release of The Division 2 on March 15, 2019.
A small change is currently making Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 a completely different experience for solo players.
With the update on 23.10., Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 received, alongside an improvement in network performance and numerous fixes, a new playlist for multiplayer. The Mercenary Capture Moshpit has been active in this playlist since then. This playlist is so well-received by solo players that many fans are now demanding a permanent retention of the feature.
Players demand: Mercenary Capture Moshpit should stay permanently in Black Ops 4
What is the Mercenary Capture Moshpit? It is a temporary featured playlist in the traditional multiplayer of Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. The playlist includes various game modes and rotates these between matches. Included are the modes
Domination
Hardpoint
Control
The games are played in a 5vs5 format.
What makes this playlist so special in Black Ops 4? Aside from the predefined modes, this list essentially has just a small peculiarity, but it is significant. In this Mercenary playlist, no groups are allowed. This means that as a player, you encounter only other solo players, not teams of players.
How are the fans reacting? The fans, especially the solo players, love this new featured playlist. The numerous posts and comments on Reddit leave no doubt about that. Almost everyone agrees: this small change is a huge step for solo players and makes the multiplayer experience a completely different one for them.
Previously, players were often sent into battle as random squads against fixed teams and were correspondingly torn apart, but now as a lone wolf, you have much better chances of succeeding against opponents. Both teams consist of randoms, meaning randomly assembled players.
Spawn camping, which allows well-coordinated teams to dominate entire matches, has significantly decreased. Additionally, players are not constantly torn apart by the scorestreaks of an overly dominant enemy team. Matches are now significantly more balanced. Overall, the fun factor has increased enormously.
Many players are therefore demanding that the Mercenary playlist be permanently integrated into the game and provide an additional option to the core and hardcore modes. This way, the most important pillars of individual player preferences would be quickly established. Players could choose whether they want the normal or hardcore experience and whether they want to compete against teams or other solo players. Thus, every interest group would quickly get what they want.
The action RPG Hellgate: London seems to be the resilient figure of video games. No matter how many times it has been shut down, it always makes a comeback. Now the shooter, reminiscent of Diablo, is planning a return on Steam.
As publisher Hanbitsoft explained, Hellgate: London will restart on Steam in the latest version in November 2018 – but with a small catch.
The game that won’t die
This is the path Hellgate: London has taken so far: Hellgate: London has had a very rocky road.
The action RPG launched at the end of October 2007 under Bill Roper’s Flagship Studios. The plan was to mix the Diablo principle with a shooter.
The success did not materialize as the game appeared unfinished and had many technical problems. It faced criticism from players.
Less than a year later, in the summer of 2008, most of the development team was laid off, and the rights to the game were partly sold to Hanbitsoft, while partly remaining with the publisher Namco.
The servers of Hellgate: London shut down in February 2009, and Flagship Studios closed its doors.
After revival attempts failed, Namco transferred its rights to the game to Hanbitsoft.
In 2011, Hellgate: London was relaunched with publisher T3Fun and received the major expansion Hellgate: Tokyo.
Under the new name Hellgate: Global, the game lasted until early 2012, but was shut down due to lack of success.
In 2014, T3Fun made another revival attempt via Steam Greenlight, but by 2015, the servers were closed again. Hanbitsoft closed shortly after, in early 2016, the last own servers of the game.
Finally, fans attempted a revival in 2017, which is still actively running.
A new return
This is how Hellgate: London is officially returning now: Hanbitsoft announced that with the support of some fans, the action RPG will be re-released on Steam. This is the latest version 2.0, including the expansion Hellgate Tokyo. The release is scheduled for November 15.
There are still questions unanswered: However, it is still unclear whether Hellgate: London will be released as a Buy2Play or Free2Play game.
However, premium items are mentioned, which indicates an in-game shop. Additionally, so far there is only talk of the single-player mode. Whether the multiplayer part will be added later or possibly omitted entirely is currently unclear.
This is how players are reacting: Although this constant shutdown and revival of the game has become somewhat of a running gag, many players still hold on to Hellgate: London.
It certainly had the potential to become a classic if it hadn’t been published too early. Many players are looking forward to the relaunch, while others believe that the game should finally disappear completely.
cheyane writes on MMORPG.com: “I bought the game back when it was released and I also played it as Hellgate: Revival. I would even buy it again now to be able to play it. “
Titanofdoom says on Steam: “The game works better in multiplayer. Please reintroduce multiplayer. I was so excited until I read single player.”

The battle royale shooter Fear the Wolves received a major update. This introduces treasure hunts, which should make the title more interesting.
On average, around 15 players are playing the online shooter Fear the Wolves on Steam at the same time. This is too few for a battle royale shooter, which is why the developers want to bring more variety to the game.
More variety with the new update
This is what the new update brings: With the newly released update, players will find it more interesting to explore the map.
Treasures are hidden everywhere, but you first need to find them
The treasures offer interesting loot such as high-quality items
It’s not easy to get to the items. For example, you have to break down locked doors of abandoned houses
With the mix of PvP and PvE, it should be exciting to find these items. They could be guarded by werewolves
Additionally, there are adjustments to balancing, the behavior of wolves, and weapon firing behavior. It is also possible that a helicopter may rescue you from the roof of a house. Some bug fixes are also included in the update.
The developers are committed: This update is already the fourth since the game release at the end of August. Several bugs have already been fixed, performance has been optimized, and balancing has been adjusted.
Fear the Wolves has a tough standing: In the competitive market of battle royale games, Fear the Wolves is currently having a hard time. The reviews on Steam are mixed at 50%, and the player numbers, according to Steamcharts, do not look good either. However, players are noticing that a lot is happening and every patch leads to improvements.
As diaboliic mentioned on Steam: “When the game started, it lacked in every area. I must say that it has been progressing well since the early access phase.”

The western MMO Wild West Online (WWO) faced heavy criticism and even allegations of fraud even before its launch. There seemed to be an attempt to be close to Red Dead Redemption 2. Accordingly, the game performed poorly, which led to the halt of its development. However, this does not mean the end of the title.
The developers managed to close a deal and will soon bring Wild West Online back – but in two parts. One of them focuses on Battle Royale.
Much criticism from the start regarding Wild West Online
Wild West Online has often been rumored to have a connection to War Z producer Sergey Titov, who misled players with empty promises and dubious microtransactions. While such a connection could never be proven, the rumors further burdened the already struggling Wild West Online.
Catastrophic player numbers and devastating reviews were the result.
However, the team continued to work on the game and even wanted to switch to the Free2Play model. Since then, it has been quiet about the game.
Three months without pay
Now it is known: Development was halted in August. The employees have not been paid since then, some were without pay for over 3 months, the company was virtually closed and support for Wild West Online was discontinued. Mr. Black announced this on the forum.
WWO returns
A sign of life: Now the team has returned in the form of Mr. Black. In the forum on the official website, the developers talk about the future of Wild West Online.
The team was able to enter into a partnership with Free Reign Entertainment, which allows for further development
Those who already own WWO can continue playing with their account after the restart. You will also receive some rewards for your loyalty
However, you will need to download the game again
The client will then give you access to the two “parts” of Wild West Online, Frontier and Magnificent 5
Frontier is basically the well-known online game in an open world with a focus on PvP, crafting, hunting, and survival
Magnificent 5 is a battle royale variant in which 20 teams, each consisting of 5 players, compete against each other on a large map, build forts, and search for artifacts. It is said to play similarly to Fortnite
WWO will be released as a free-to-play game on Steam
When will it continue? As the team explains, Magnificent 5 will start as a test version next week. Frontier is expected to follow in November. Both titles will then still be in an open beta version.
Players react skeptically
This is how players are reacting: After everything that has happened regarding Wild West Online so far, players are extremely skeptical about the restart.
The cooperation with Free Reign Entertainment is also viewed critically. The studio released the shooter Shattered Skies on Steam, which disappeared from the platform due to technical issues and a lack of players.
Moreover, Free Reign Entertainment belongs to the Arktos Entertainment Group LLC, a company in which Sergey Titov is involved. This again reinforces the indications that he was and is also involved in Wild West Online.
Conga-Line Bob says on Steam: “HAHAHA – So Free Reign Entertainment wants to save their own game? That’s ridiculous. It’s like Disney saying they’re saving ABC. Wild West Online was a Free-Reign game from the start. So Titov is now claiming his own game is his own game, that’s the only difference here. “
rojoArcueid writes on MMORPG.com: “No matter what they claim. To me, it’s War Z: Cowboy Edition. Burn it with fire!”
In Fortnite: Battle Royale, a fitting skin for the Halloween event has arrived in the shop: Deadfire. You can further customize this cowboy. Furthermore, he has what it takes to become the new super skin in Fortnite.
What is so special about Deadfire? Deadfire already looks cool from the start, but it gets better. The more damage you inflict on your opponents in the game and the longer you survive, the more the outfit changes.
Deadfire begins to glow and transforms slowly from a human into a ghostly avenger. The same goes for his pickaxe and back bling, which become ghostly glowing shards.
The only reactive skin in the game: This reactive effect is currently exclusive to Deadfire. No other outfit has this. Not even Calamity.
How do I get Deadfire? Unfortunately, Deadfire and his pickaxe are not free. You need to purchase them in the shop if you want them. The price is 2,000 V-Bucks (20 euros) for the outfit and 1,200 V-Bucks for the pickaxe. This comes to about 32 euros for both skins. A hefty price!
Will Deadfire be the new Skull Trooper?
Is there more? In addition to the skin, the pickaxe, and the back bling, you can earn a cool glider shaped like a ghost train for Deadfire (or other skins) if you complete all the challenges for the Halloween event Fortnitemares.
The new super skin? Deadfire will most likely only be available for Halloween, and whether he will return next year is not guaranteed. Halloween 2018 is firmly tied to the Wild West story. Perhaps Epic will tell a different story in 2019 and feature a new skin for it.
This may be the only chance for the time being to buy the cowboy now for the event in 2018 or to miss out on him for a very long time (possibly forever). Therefore, Deadfire could become just as popular as the infamous Skull Trooper, the Halloween skin from 2017. Before his return, he was one of the rarest and most sought-after skins in the game.

Spoiler Alert: If you do not want to know anything about the Saurfang quest, you should stop reading now.
Throughout the quest line, we accompany the troll Zekhan and eventually find Saurfang. Originally, the quest required that Zekhan and the player join Saurfang and eliminate the elite troops of the Banshee Queen.
Instead of being forced to accept this quest, there is now an alternative: You can tell Zekhan that you will not betray Sylvanas.
What happens if you choose the alternative route? If you choose loyalty to the Banshee Queen, the game warns you that you will miss out on certain toys and rewards, but you will see a different quest line. Additionally, there is the ominous text “Zekhan will remember” if you oppose him – a clear reference to many “Tell Tale” games.
If you accept the alternative quest, you must return to Sylvanas and report. In this case, she praises the player for their loyalty and explains that you will continue to be “a golden hero in the eyes of the people, whose hands will not be stained with blood”.
Moreover, she has “special plans” for Zekhan – what exactly this will mean is still unclear at this point.
What do you think about Blizzard now addressing story feedback even within a PTR? Do you like having a choice now?
Numerous fans have taken a liking to the Haunted Forest from the Festival of the Lost and wish that the activity would be permanently available in Destiny 2. But what could a “Haunted Forest forever” look like?
This activity is well-received by many, and for the forest fans, it is already clear: the Haunted Forest should remain in Destiny 2 even after the event. But what could that look like?
The Haunted Forest is what the Infinite Forest was supposed to be
What is the Infinite Forest? With the Infinite Forest from the “Curse of Osiris” DLC, Bungie promised an arena that is “infinitely” made up of different parts. Guardians were supposed to find new compositions repeatedly and fight against new enemies.
But ultimately, the Infinite Forest turned out to be essentially a prettier landing zone and served merely as a connecting point between different level areas. Those hoping to access the advertised Vex simulation as a standalone activity outside of a strike or quest were disappointed.
What is the Haunted Forest? With the Haunted Forest, Bungie has turned the disappointing Infinite Forest into the activity that fans had hoped for nearly a year ago. It is a spooky reimagining of the Infinite Forest that has come into the game for the duration of the Halloween event and strongly resembles the Greater Rifts from Diablo 3.
Up to three Guardians can fight through randomly generated areas with enemies alone, in a fireteam, or with the help of matchmaking. Once enough enemies have been defeated, players land in an arena with a boss.
After defeating the boss, the game starts again on the next tier (branch) with increasingly stronger enemies and bosses as players progress through the branches. This activity is time-limited; players have 15 minutes to get as far as they can. Once the time is up, players can still finish the branch, i.e., the level they are on.
What makes the Haunted Forest so popular with fans? The rewards from the activity are currently very modest. Players only receive Soul Fragments, the event currency of the festival. However, the mode itself is considered very fun by many, especially in a group.
Players must approach strategically and find a good balance between kills and progression. In a random group, players can have fun, while in a coordinated team, they can challenge themselves through the higher branch regions – over and over again.
It is no longer just a landing zone for another activity; it is now a standalone mode with random components, unique strategies, and tricks. The Haunted Forest challenges players and forces them to work as a team and perform at their best if they want to get far. That is exactly what many Guardians wished for – just with attractive rewards.
How could the Haunted Forest be permanently integrated into the game?
For many, the Haunted Forest is the best way to breathe life into the essentially useless Infinite Forest on Mercury. If the Haunted Forest disappears with the end of the Halloween event, there will still be no proper use for the Infinite Forest in its current form.
However, the Haunted Forest in its current form cannot simply remain as it is.
On the one hand, it is only a temporary activity, and on the other hand, the Haunted Forest is currently only being used to earn the event currency for masks and the event weapon. Aside from the fun factor, it offers no further incentives. How can this be resolved?
The Transitional Solution for the Infinite Forest
This is what the community wants: The most widespread suggestion from the community is to tie a modified Infinite Forest with the current mechanics of the Haunted Forest or the Haunted Forest itself to Brother Vance on Mercury.
This would still allow it to be a standalone activity that would be permanently available. However, the rewards would need to be greatly improved. Players could grind for loot from a forest loot pool that could include all forge weapons and Mercury armor with random rolls.
With such a solution, Bungie would already make many fans happy.
The Final Solution for the Infinite Forest
This is what fans desire: However, some Guardians feel this is not enough. They dream of a complete overhaul of the Infinite Forest into a standalone endgame activity with long-term motivation that is accessible to all Guardians.
In addition to the mechanics of the Haunted Forest, they wish for new building blocks for the randomly generated sections, additional special mechanics, unique modifiers, specific bosses, and a specific loot pool with attractive rewards.
The problem with this: The Haunted Forest is accessible as its own activity through the Tower and is available to all players. In contrast, the Infinite Forest is tied to Mercury and therefore requires the DLC I “Curse of Osiris.” Players who only own the base game have no access to the Infinite Forest.
Here’s how the problem could be resolved: One could keep the Haunted Forest or the Infinite Forest in the Tower and tie it to another NPC who runs the activity. There are plenty of possibilities.
It might also be possible to make the location Mercury, including this activity, available to everyone retroactively – regardless of the corresponding DLC. After all, both Year 1 DLCs are already free with Forsaken.
Do you also want the Haunted Forest to stay? What wishes and ideas do you have? How could the activity be permanently integrated into the game?

The game “Follow JC GO” from the Vatican is apparently a clone of Pokémon GO. However, instead of collecting Pikachu, Bulbasaur, and their friends, you collect Catholic saints. The game is already available for iOS and Android, but only in Spanish.
What kind of game is this? Follow JC Go was developed for World Youth Day in Panama on January 22, 2019, but the app is already out. It is a mobile game for iOS and Android, currently only available in Spanish. More languages are planned.
This is what you do in the game: The same as in Pokémon GO, but instead of collecting Pokémon, you collect Catholic saints or other “blessed figures from the Bible.” The “Follow JC” in the name stands for “Follow Jesus Christ.”
For this, you must go outside and walk around. Then you meet people you can catch. However, you do not have to battle them, but answer questions about saints.

As reported by the Italian site corriere.it, Pope Francis has given his blessing to “FolloW JC GO.” The game uses GPS like Pokémon GO, and it has been tested in Milan.
What else is there besides catching: Furthermore, it is said that the game not only revolves around collecting saints but also emphasizes the physical and mental health of the players. There are indicators for this:
the nutrition level
the hydration, how thirsty you are
and the number of prayers
This is how to make money in Follow JC GO: The in-game currency is called “Denarios,” which can be collected in three ways:
This is what users say: On Google Play, the app currently has a rating of 3.2 (out of 5) from 1460 votes. In general, many find it quite amusing. One says, “Imagine you meet a friend and tell him, hey, I caught Jesus yesterday.”
However, many currently criticize that Follow JC GO is only available in Spanish.
All one can say is: Go in peace and catch them all.
Monster Hunter: World receives a special mod. It is a skin of the outfit of 2B, a character from the action RPG Nier: Automata. The popularity of Automata also extends to other MMO games.
What is Nier: Automata? Developed in collaboration between Square Enix and Platinum Games, Nier: Automata is the successor to the popular action role-playing game Nier: Gestalt / Replica.
The story of Automata is set against a backdrop of a millennia-long war between humanity and the aliens who have attacked Earth.
The main characters of Nier Automata (from left to right): 9S, 2B, A2
In order to finally decide the war in their favor, humanity developed a special type of combat android called YoRHa and sent several of them to Earth to fight the alien machine army.
The events revolve around the YoRHa androids 2B, 9S, and A2. Due to the dynamic combat system and the profound story, Nier: Automata has won numerous awards and quickly became known as the hidden gem of 2017 among fans.

What does the Nier Automata mod do in Monster Hunter: World? Although mods in MHW are not officially supported and used at your own risk, their number is quite large. Recently, a new skin mod “Project Two-Bee” has been added, which makes your character look like 2B from Nier Automata. At least almost.
The skin does not copy 2B’s appearance one-to-one but moderates the female YoRHa android in the character creator of Monster Hunter: World.
The creator of the mod, a user named Uhlica, has reported that the mod is not yet completely finished. In addition to various minor adjustments, the stockings, sleeves, and the dress’s skirt are to be improved.
Where can you get the mod? As is the case with many other mods, you can download the 2B skin from Nexusmods . However, the mods in Monster Hunter: World are not officially supported, so it is up to you whether the skin is worth the risk.
Nier Automata is also popular in other MMO games
2B’s outfit is often used as a mod: Generally, Nier Automata seems to be extremely popular among MMO players. There are also mods circulating in the communities of Final Fantasy XIV and GTA V Online that make your character look like 2B or A2.

In particular, the FFXIV fans have long hoped for a collaboration event with Nier Automata. The Twitter user @HJZ_artemi even developed a concept of what such an event might look like in the MMORPG.
Her event concept included special weapons from Nier Automata for each class in FFXIV, outfits for the characters 2B and 9S, and a new mount. Unfortunately, the FFXIV development team has no plans for a collaboration with Nier Automata.
