For those who have not been on the radar for a year: Cryptic Studios is working on an MMORPG for “Magic: The Gathering”. And now a job listing has brought a small sign of life to light.
There is finally news about the “Magic: The Gathering” MMORPG that Cryptic Studios (Neverwinter) is working on – more than a year after the announcement of the game!
Magic as MMO?
What is the MMO about Magic: The Gathering? In June 2017, Cryptic Studios and Perfect World announced to develop a new MMORPG. This is set in the universe of the popular card game Magic: The Gathering. Except that it is being worked on and it uses the Free2Play model, we only know that the title focuses on the characters, the story, and the world and not on the cards.
Silence from the developers: After the announcement, there was silence around the online game. Fans had already wondered if it was still in development. Apparently, the title was announced very early, which is why it is now taking so long to learn more about it.
Here is what’s new: In a job listing, Cryptic Studios is looking for a “Character Artist”. This person is expected to collaborate with designers and other artists on the team to create interesting characters. These will then be transferred to the game as 3D models.
The job listing states that the new hire should ideally have a passion for Magic: The Gathering. This is a pretty good indication that Cryptic Studios is currently looking for someone to work on the MMO for Magic. The online game is still in development.
How are the fans reacting? This news brings hope to the fans of Magic: The Gathering. On the other hand, there is also some skepticism.
Massively-OPUser sophiskiai says: “I haven’t played Magic since the mid-90s and I try not to get my hopes up before they announce things like the business model and monetization strategies… But with 25 years of fantastic story, it could really be cool.”
Hexen counters: “Has any game ever been announced – without naming any information about the gameplay – that did not turn out to be a gankbox?”
We hope that Cryptic Studios will soon release more details about the MMO or maybe show some gameplay material.
In Fortnite: Battle Royale, the challenges for Week 1 in Season 6 are known. We will show you how to complete them and unlock the first tiers in the new Battle Pass.
The easiest challenges so far:Season 6 has started and, as usual, there are new challenges. This time, they are all quite easy to complete. Additionally, the previously mandatory treasure hunt is missing. Instead, there are two phase challenges.
Free and paid: As known from the previous Season 5, three of these tasks are available for free to all players. We will show you those in the first table depicted here.
For the four challenges in the second list, you need the paid Battle Pass. However, you can still purchase itright before the end of Season 6, and your progress from the free version will be credited there.
Bonus star after all challenges: If you complete all challenges in the first week, you will receive a new banner with a bonus star from the hunt group challenge.
All challenges from Week 1 in Season 6

Oops, unfortunately this table is no longer available.
Challenge 1 – Collect a legendary item in different matches
Happy collecting: Legendary items are all items that glow gold. You can often find them in supply drops and sometimes in chests, and rarely as ground spawns. Collecting three of them is not really hard. However, it must be in three different rounds.
Challenge 2 – Regain health through a crackling campfire
Simple task: This task is easy to complete. You just need to find and use a campfire as an item. Once you have regenerated 150 health points, the task is completed. You will need at least two tries since you can only lose a maximum of 99 hit points.
Challenge 3 – Phase 1: Search chests (hard)
Ends up being hard: This task has three phases. In the first, you only need to open three chests, which you might accomplish in one match. After that, you need to open two supply drops. Ideally, you do this in the 50vs50 mode. The last task is tricky. You need to loot a llama. Unfortunately, these creatures are very rare. However, we have linked a guide to finding llamas here.
Challenge 4 – Recharge your shields (Battle Pass only)
Extra simple task: Even the worst beginner has charged 500 shield points at some time. This task is really easy.
Challenge 5 – Phase 1: Land at Junk Junction (Battle Pass only)
Landing is enough: You really only need to land at the location, nothing else. After that, there are four more phases that will send you to the following locations. You also just need to land there:
Recently, Sony announced that it will now support crossplay. The first title to do so soon will be Fortnite. What about Fallout 76? Here’s what Bethesda says.
Now fans are wondering if Fallout 76 will also offer a crossplay feature for PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Bethesda did not take long to respond.
Sony allows Crossplay – Does this affect Fallout 76?
Pete Hines, Vice President of Bethesda and responsible for marketing, has commented positively on Sony’s decision via Twitter. However, it seems that nothing is changing for Fallout 76.
This is what Hines says about crossplay in Fallout 76: He is working with many developers for whom crossplay will be important in the future.
However, this will have no impact on the development of Fallout 76, at least not in the B.E.T.A or at launch. Whether crossplay could play a role later, he left open.

Upon probing by fans, he emphasized again that the release of Fallout 76 is only seven weeks away and that it is simply not feasible to integrate crossplay in such a short time.
Crossplay for Fallout 76 not a new topic
In the past, there have been increased discussions about crossplay and Sony’s refusal to enable it. Bethesda was one of the larger publishers who openly criticized Sony for this.
What was the situation with Fallout 76? Leading employees of Bethesda have commented on this in the past. Todd Howard, head of Bethesda Game Studios, held Sony partially responsible for there being no crossplay in Fallout 76.
Penalty kicks can decide games in FIFA 19. In this tutorial on penalty shooting, we explain what you need to consider when shooting and saving, and how you can practice penalties.
Especially in knockout games like the FUT Champions matches, it can be crucial to convert and save penalties.
So that you don’t hit every ball into the stands like Ramos, we explain in this guide how to shoot penalties and then save the opponent’s attempts.
[toc]
FIFA 19: Taking Penalties
Few changes: The penalty mechanics were last adjusted in FIFA 18, and in FIFA 19, aside from a few minor improvements, nothing has changed. Overall, taking penalties works on the Xbox, PS4, PC, and Switch just like last season.
Nevertheless, penalties are tougher: Last year there was a simple trick from the spot. You just had to aim the ball half left or half right and low at the goal. Goalkeepers almost always jumped over the ball. This no longer works in FIFA 19.
What you need to consider: Many players feel that penalties have become even more sensitive. Many tried to charge their shots just as strongly as in FIFA 18 but found their balls all ending up in the stands. More finesse is required!
Step 1 – Adjust Starting Position
You can use the left stick to position your player. You have all four directions to choose from:
Left/Right: By moving your player parallel to the goal line, you adjust the angle of approach and thus the angle at which your player strikes the ball during the shot.
Forward/Backward: Changing your distance to the ball at the starting position adjusts your run-up time. So, step further back to have more time when approaching to gain more speed.
Helper Arrow is useful at the beginning: Once you’ve positioned your player, it’s time to shoot. At the start, it’s advisable to enable the helper arrow. This shows you exactly where and how strongly you’re aiming. You can toggle the penalty arrow on or off using “D-pad up”.
Set the direction before the run-up: In FIFA 19, you can aim for penalties without running up. Just move the left analog stick forward and to the left or right, depending on how far you want to aim into the corner.
Attention – The stick is sensitive! You must be careful to keep movements minimal. The stick when taking penalties is very sensitive, and your shot can quickly go towards the corner flag.
Step 3 – Determine Shot Power and Start Run-up
Start run-up: If you’re satisfied with your direction, charge the penalty using the shoot button (PS4: Circle, Xbox: B). Once you’ve set the shot power, the player will run up.
Finesse is required: If you have the arrow on, you should fill the 3 lower sections of the arrow fully so that green appears below the tip. Then the ball goes just under the crossbar. If you charge more, the ball will go towards the stands.
If you want to shoot low, just charge less. However, there’s a risk that the shot might be too weak if you don’t add enough power.
Change direction during the run-up: You can also change your shot direction during the run-up or set it only then. First, perform step 3 by charging your shot. Then adjust the direction using the left stick during the run-up.
Delay: If you want to trick the goalkeeper, you can also delay your run-up. During the run-up, press L2 (PS4) or LT (Xbox).
Run up faster: To get more power behind your penalty, you can press R2 or RT during the run-up. This makes your player run faster.
General Tips and Tricks for Taking Penalties
Change Shooters: You can change your shooter before executing by pressing the R2/RB button.
Lob: If you want to cheekily chip the ball, press the L1/LB button along with the shoot button.
Curling Penalty: To put spin on the shot, press the R1/RB button in addition to the shoot button.
Training Mode: If you want to test and practice your knowledge about penalties outside of matches, you can do this in the training arena. Just press an arrow key in the penalty area. Another way to practice penalties is through skill games.
FIFA 19: Saving Penalties
It’s not only important to score shots but also to save them. Here, there’s significantly less to consider.
Move the Keeper: Use the left stick to move your goalkeeper on the line. You can also stay put if you suspect the opponent wants to shoot to the center.
Confuse the Goalkeeper: To throw the shooter off their game, you can use the buttons “X, Circle, Triangle, Square” / “Y, B, A, X” to perform various movements.
Jump: To dive, press the right stick in the desired direction when the opponent shoots. Pressing downwards to the left means jumping down to the left, and this works analogously for the other directions.
Recognizing the Shooter’s Direction as a Goalkeeper
Trick to recognize shot direction: Since FIFA 18, this method works to predict where the shooter will aim before the shot. You just need to pay attention to the player’s head movement who is taking the penalty. If he looks slightly to the left, he is aiming to the left.
Good shooters exploit this: As you approach, for instance, aim to the left and then change direction to the right just before the shot, this can easily deceive the keeper. If you are shooting yourself, you can also try this trick. If you are the goalkeeper, always keep this in mind.
If you want to play earlier, you have to pay. This is also the case with the online shooter Warface. If you want to be part of the now started Early Access, you need to purchase a founder’s package, even though Warface is actually a Free2Play title.
Crytek’s online shooter Warface is also coming to Xbox One. Officially, it’s only in October, but those who pay can start right now.
The online shooter on Xbox One
What is Warface? Warface is an online shooter developed by Crytek. The PC version has been playable since 2013, and this month the version for PS4 was released. The release for Xbox One is also planned for October 9.
You can play Warface either in PvP against other players or cooperatively against AI. In PvP, you can expect six game modes, including Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, and even Battle Royale in the future.
A paid Early Access: Warface is basically a Free2Play shooter. If you play on Xbox One from October 9, you don’t have to pay anything. However, if you want to get in earlier, this is only possible if you purchase one of the paid founder’s packages.
What founder’s packages are available? You can choose from four class packages, each costing 24.99 euros and besides immediate access to Early Access, include the following:
Engineer: You get the submachine gun Magpul FMG-9 and receive the gold version. Additionally, you receive the skin “Engineer of the Paragon Squad” and 300 credits
Sniper: The package includes the sniper rifle Remington R11 RSASS and the gold version, as well as the skin “Sniper of the Paragon Squad” and 300 credits
Assault: The assault rifle FN SCAR-H and the gold version, as well as the skin “Assault of the Paragon Squad” and 300 credits are included
Medic: You receive the Fabarm S.A.T. 8 Pro and the gold version in the package, the skin “Medic of the Paragon Squad” and 300 credits
For 74.99 you get a comprehensive package that offers the following:
Access to Early Access
Assault rifle FN SCAR-H and the gold version
Shotgun Fabarm S.A.T. 8 Pro with gold version
Magpul FMG-9 including gold version
Sniper rifle Remington R11 RSASS and the gold version
Handgun CZ-75 with the gold version
Combat knife Hunting Commando
Skin set Paragon Squad for all classes
1500 credits
Paying for Free2Play games
Paid Free2Play: Anyone who wants to participate in the Early Access phase must pay for it. This practice is becoming increasingly common among Free2Play titles:
Dauntless was paid during the alpha, at release it is a Free2Play game
H1Z1 – This shooter also had a paid Early Access version, but the title was planned as a Free2Play game at release
This is how players react: The practice of charging for Free2Play games during an Early Access phase or alpha is controversial and thus some people find it unpalatable. Criticism can also be found on Twitter:
MattySW writes: “Wait, it’s not free on Xbox? That’s crap!”
Supreme itzGEO sarcastically says: “Something is wrong here. It’s supposed to be free.”
Others, however, are excited that the Early Access phase has started and celebrate it with Gifs, as can also be seen on Twitter.
Fortnite: Battle Royale has recently started Season 6. Here you will find all the new features and adjustments at a glance!
Season 6 has started: On September 27, 2018, at noon, the Fortnite servers came back online after a short maintenance and Season 6 with the theme “Creepy and Spooky” is now active.
In the following paragraphs, we have gathered all known new features and info articles for you. This way, you won’t have to search long and can get the information you want right away.

The prices for reforging in World of Warcraft can skyrocket. But should that really be the case? We want to hear your voice!
Reforging is a big topic of discussion in the World of Warcraft community. If you’re not careful, you can quickly incur high costs and waste your saved gold on adjusting your gear. But is that necessary? Do we really need such high costs? Do they serve a purpose, or are they pure hassle? We want to pass this question on to you.
What is Reforging? Once you have set properties on Azerite items (helmet, shoulders, and chest), you can reallocate their distribution. The Ascendants can help there and undo the distribution of an item. However, this costs gold.
While the initial price is cheap, the costs double each time. What cost only 1 gold at the beginning can quickly rise to over 40,000 gold coins. However, after a while without reforging, the price will go down again.
Sometimes, reforging can also easily cost 40,000 gold.
Multi-Specs are particularly affected: Those who play several active specializations are therefore advised to acquire multiple gear sets. Since high-quality Azerite armor over item level 340 is rare, these players often need to reallocate their properties. This is expensive and frustrating.
If you also enjoy PvP, where other properties are required again, you quickly face the choice: Do you pay hundreds of thousands of gold coins, or do you prefer to play ineffectively with the wrong properties?
But now let’s get to you: What do you think about reforging? Should it be free? Or are the costs good for removing gold from the game and making the decision to respec meaningful?
If you can’t see the survey, please check your ad blocker. It would be nice to disable it on our page anyway – that way you support us.
Cortyn says: Even though costs for respeccing (which is nothing else but reforging at the moment) is such a “classic” thing, I find it terrible. The bonuses are too powerful not to take advantage of them. Since I like to heal in dungeons but also enjoy playing as a Shadow Priest in PvP, I find the costs excessive. I might as well play up a second priest.
Fortnite is not starting on Xbox One. Crashes and freezes are also a big problem at the start of Season 6. Players are therefore looking for Fortnite support in German, asking for a phone number. We will check what Epic’s support says about the issues.
On Xbox One, the update 6.0 causes the consoles to crash – players are being kicked out of Fortnite

This is what Fortnite support says about the problems on Xbox
Xbox crashes: Epic is aware of the crashes on Xbox. The developers are investigating what the issues are related to. As soon as more information is available, there should be an update.

On Reddit, reports from players who cannot play are piling up. Especially the Xbox error is frustrating for many because they do not even have the chance to dive into the new Season 6 and visit the new places on the map.
User Ano010 writes: Xbox is literally unplayable
User Midice writes: There are crashes and freezes on Xbox, please take a look at this
Epic has already responded that they are looking into the issue
User ItzAlcatraz writes: So much for getting up early to play. RIP Xbox
The frustration is especially palpable among Xbox players. Of course, the new Season 6 brings many innovations to a spooky theme that fans are eager to check out. Those who got up early for this and now cannot play are understandably upset. After all, it’s still the middle of the night in the USA.
Previously, there was an issue with purchasing V-Bucks, which has since been resolved.
These are the best packs in FIFA 19 Ultimate Team. Here you can quickly find out which sets are worth buying and opening. All packs in FUT 19 with prices and contents in the overview list.
Pack opening is part of FUT 19: Especially at the start of the new FUT season, you should manage your scarce coins wisely and invest them in good players to improve your team. However, the thrill of FUT is also to try your luck with packs: “Maybe this set finally has Messi in it!”
[toc]
Tips before you open packs:
Many packs can be purchased with coins or FIFA Points. FIFA Points are a currency that can only be bought with real money.
If you are willing to invest additional money in FUT 19, you should initially buy packs only with FIFA Points. Because you will need your coins to bid on players in the transfer market to upgrade your team.
Only when you have a powerful team should you try to test your luck with opening sets using coins. Because packs are often a losing investment.
Open sets in which you can get the most for your coins. These are not yet available at the start of the FUT season. We will show you which ones they are now.
How to find the best sets in FUT 19: Buy the available sets with the lowest price per rare card. Sets with guaranteed rare players are especially recommended.
List of the best sets you can buy with coins: In the following sets, you potentially get the most for your coins. The calculations are based on the fifauteam website and are based on hundreds of pack openings. They calculated how many coins a rare gold player costs on average through each set:
Oops, unfortunately this table is no longer available.
The expensive sets are the best: It is not surprising that you get the most for your money when you spend many coins and buy the most expensive sets. However, keep in mind that you have no guarantee of top players. In these packs, only the “coins per rare gold player” value is the best.
Rare gold players for TOTW cards: If you want players from the Team of the Week, you must buy sets that can contain rare gold players. However, the chances of getting TOTW players are low.
Are there really “best sets”? Most FUT players want rare gold players who have top attributes and fetch high amounts on the transfer market. These recommendations for packs are meant for these users. However, if you want to build a bronze team, bronze packs are recommended for you.
All packs with costs and contents in the list
The packs in FIFA 19 Ultimate Team can be divided into 3 categories:
Standard Sets: These are always available; you can buy and open them anytime.

Are you already wondering how the map of Fortnite: Battle Royale is changing for Season 6? We will show you the new locations on the Fortnite map with Season 6.
In Fortnite, a major event is currently the focus of the community: Season 6 in Fortnite: Battle Royale. The trailer for the new season has already shown that a lot is changing in the game.

Map changes – What is new in Fortnite? Flying island, haunted castle
Loot Lake and the flying island: The trailer for Season 6 in Fortnite showed that a large island arose from Loot Lake. This now hovers over the lake.
Loot Lake itself has also changed because of this. Where the island rose, it now drops a few meters deep. Large rocks protrude from the water.
House on the island: If you look closely, you can even spot a house on the island. Many Fortnite players will definitely explore that as soon as they have built a way there or land with the glider.
More changes on the map: The flying island is not the only new feature. There is also the haunted castle, corn fields, and cursed areas on the map. These cursed areas are places that the purple cube visited on its way to Loot Lake.

The first free update Gator Rush has been released for the online racing game The Crew 2. This brings you new disciplines, vehicles, better loot, and more innovations.
For a long time, there has been silence around The Crew 2. After it recently performed rather mediocre and there were no major innovations, the first free update Gator Rush is now available.
Gator Rush brings you a new vehicle class, more events, and better loot. We summarize all the innovations of the update for you.
Hovercraft races are coming as a new discipline
Gator Rush introduces a new vehicle class, the hovercrafts. For this, a dedicated discipline with ten events has also been set up.
What are hovercrafts? Hovercrafts create a type of cushion from air between themselves and the ground, allowing them to float. Therefore, they are capable of traveling both on land and on water.
For the hovercraft races, three vehicles and ten new events are spread throughout the virtual USA.
These are the new hovercrafts:
Proto BumbleBEEX

Fortnite: Battle Royale kicks off the new Season 6 with a haunted castle and a familiar skin. Check out the trailer here.
On Thursday, September 27, Epic released the trailer for the new season in Fortnite Battle Royale. In October, people around the world celebrate Halloween, and Fortnite is likely embracing this theme. A haunted castle is at the center of the map changes. There is also a familiar skin, which is considered extremely rare. Will Epic bring this back to the shop?
What can players expect? As Epic explains, mysterious things are said to have changed on the Fortnite map. Players are expected to discover ghostly secrets and unpack a new battle pass.
Special places on the map: In the video description, the locations Wailing Woods, the corruption of the purple cube, and the haunted castle are particularly highlighted. You can expect exciting things to discover.
What do the fans say about the trailer? Excitement over Skull Trooper
The Skull Trooper with popcorn: This is an important detail for Fortnite fans, as this skin is extremely rare. And thus also popular.
What makes it so special? This skin was available in 2017 only for a short time for Halloween and not again after that. In October 2017, the Fortnite Battle Royale fanbase was not that big yet. This means only a few players secured this skin. Accounts with this skin are traded on marketplaces like Ebay for over €100.
What is new now? Thanks to the trailer, many players believe the skin will come back to the shop. This is not confirmed, however.
Voices from the community: Not all fans focus on the Skull Trooper.
User Lawgamer411 writes: I love how all the top comments revolve around the Skull Trooper in the video and not the flying island.
TheDonBonston writes: Great, I don’t get it, but great!
Generally, the comments on the video show that players are looking forward to this new horror/spooky setting and are excited about the new Season 6 in Fortnite. How do you like the trailer?
Are you looking forward to being able to play Red Dead Redemption 2 on your Playstation 4 from October 26? Then start clearing space on your hard drive. The storage space requirement is enormous.
New information about Red Dead Redemption 2 shows that the title will be gigantic. Not only in terms of the size of the living game world, but also regarding the space required on your PS4 hard drive.
A gigantic game
How much storage space does RDR 2 require? According to information on a “PlayStation 4 Pro Red Dead Redemption 2 Bundle”, 105 gigabytes of hard drive space is needed.
That is even more than The Elder Scrolls Online, which requires around 90 GB.
Even the massive Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 “only” requires 101 GB with all its content.
Where does this information come from? The size of the storage space is taken from the information of the “PlayStation 4 Pro Red Dead Redemption 2 Bundle” that appeared at the US retailer Target.
How about the Xbox One? How much storage RDR 2 requires on the Xbox One is still unclear. Some players suspect that the title takes up even more space on the hard drive, as textures in native 4K resolution are expected for the Xbox One X.
Will it all fit on the discs? Downloading 105 GB poses a problem for some players. Those without a really fast internet connection may need to budget a lot of time for a download.
Therefore, it can be assumed that most of the game will be found on the discs. However, it is not out of the question that purchasers of the retail version may have to download a day-one patch.
What new information has been revealed? The bundle also confirms that the PS4 will receive time-exclusive content. These are online contents. Exactly what they are is still unknown. However, it is interesting that PS4 owners will receive this content 30 days before Xbox players.
It is also mentioned that the multiplayer mode is designed for 2 to 32 players. This likely means that Red Dead Online will not take on the dimensions of an MMO, but will still host more than the 16 players with which GTA 5 Online launched.
How long does The Journey: Champions in FIFA 19? Here you can find all the info about the length, the number of chapters, and the rewards at the end of The Journey 3.
Note: Spoiler ahead! If you want to discover everything about The Journey 3 for yourself, you should rather check out another article.

The Final Chapter of Alex Hunter
Interwoven Stories: In FIFA 19, the story of Alex Hunter comes to an end. For the last time, you get to accompany the talented forward – just like his half-sister Kim and his buddy Danny Williams.
All three characters play a significant role in this year’s Journey, with their stories intersecting multiple times. You even get to play briefly as Alex’s grandfather – in a special retro setting, which allows you to experience football like in the sixties.
Three Heroes on the Path to Glory: In FIFA 19, you witness how Alex Hunter finally becomes a global star. At the end of last year’s Journey, Alex received a mysterious call from a “super agent” – who is now trying to place him with the biggest clubs in the world. Kim Hunter and Danny Williams are also taking the next steps in their careers.
How many chapters does the story mode have? This year’s Journey is divided into 4 different chapters, along with a short prologue. Last year there were still six chapters, but in The Journey 3, three storylines are told in parallel. Each chapter brings you special rewards.
How long does “The Journey 3” take? You can expect around 12-14 hours of gameplay – depending on how intensively you engage with the various options in the “Journey” mode. In the embedded video, the player takes 12 hours for all chapters. The duration is therefore roughly comparable to that of The Journey 1 and 2.
When you add up all the cutscenes, they alone account for about 4 hours.
The first chapter lasts about 2 hours, for the subsequent ones you can expect about three hours.
The Prizes for “The Journey 3”: At the end of each chapter, there are rewards. All rewards can be used in the Ultimate Team mode:
Reward in Chapter 1
Chapter 1 – Reward: 1x Jim Hunter’s classic ball and 1x Jim Hunter Ultimate Team card
Not only in The Journey can you control Alex Hunter’s grandfather Jim: You also get the opportunity in Ultimate Team. The Classic Ball adds even more retro flair to your game. Jim Hunter’s Ultimate Team card comes with an overall rating of 77 and offers offensive attributes around 80.
The second chapter brings you a loan player pack for your Ultimate Team. With a bit of luck, you can draw real reinforcements for your team from this pack – but only for a limited number of matches.
If you haven’t drawn a top FIFA 19 player from the Chapter 2 pack, you get another opportunity. Chapter 3 also brings you a loan player pack:
Reward in Chapter 4
Chapter 4 – Reward: 1 x Alex Hunter Ultimate Team card and 1x Danny Williams
At the end of the Journey, you receive the Ultimate Team cards of Hunter and Williams – just like last year. Both English players could be reinforcements for teams in the Premier League. However, Williams’ card does not have very high stats. Alex, on the other hand, could be a valuable asset with his 82 rating – especially at the start of the FUT season.
This is an AI-powered translation. Some inaccuracies might exist.
Fortnite has received a new patch with the launch of Season 6. Update 6.0 brings a ton of new items and surprises. We have the patch notes in German for you. You can see what changes in the Fortnite changelog.
With Update 6.0, Season 6 starts in Fortnite. There is also a fun trailer. It brings the following highlights for Fortnite Battle Royale and Save the World.
These are the patch notes for Battle Royale in patch 6.0
Shadow Stones: Shadow stones are now scattered across the map in Fortnite. You can pick them up and run around as a ghost for a short time. In this form, you are invisible and cannot attack. However, you can push forward as a shadow with your attack button and even pass through obstacles. Additionally, you are faster as a ghost and leave footprints.
New Locations: With Season 6, the world changes radically. There are now the following new locations:
New Input Device Rules: You can now switch from the mouse & keyboard to a controller during matches, but not vice versa. Additionally, the rules that match players with mouse and keyboard to other players with mouse and keyboard are now active, even if some play on PS4 and Xbox One and others on PC.
Pets are coming: Companions are pets that are meant to provide players with backup.
New Storm Rules: The waiting times and speed of the storm circles have been changed. Waiting times have generally been reduced, while shrink times have been extended.
The Grappler now transfers momentum to objects you hit. Additionally, it now has only 10 charges instead of 15.
The double-barreled shotgun deals less damage now
Weapons are out: Impulse grenade, suppressed submachine gun, light machine gun, thrower and remote detonators have been removed from the game. They are still available in the playground for now.
Gameplay Adjustment: There have been the already known sound adjustments
Looks like Save the World will be “free” soon: In the PvE part, it seems that the patch is slowly preparing players for Save the World becoming free.
It is supposed to happen sometime in 2018, but it is not yet known exactly when. It might be that patch 6.0 is still paid – and then with 7.0 at some point in December will actually switch to “Free2Play”.
The PvE mode “Save the World” is also getting something new:
The new event “Last-Minute” is supposed to prepare players for the “exciting things” that are about to happen. This can only mean that “Save the World” will actually be free soon.
The event shop will feature MEGA BASE Kyle during the duration of “Last-Minute”.
The weekly shop will also bring back some items from the past during the “Last-Minute” event. The hydraulic “Pulverizer” hammer is back in the first week.
You will receive rewards for activating two-factor authentication.
A new enemy is coming: With the Ruckus Shell comes a new PvE opponent who carries a refrigerator door and is therefore hard to hit. You will likely have to bypass this enemy.
Level up and develop your favorite items during the mini-event “Last-Minute”. Mini-boss mission alerts are active, and up to 10 of them can be completed per day.
The Rattattaa submachine gun has been added to the weekly shop. It will be available until October 4, 2018.
When enemies attack player structures up close, a red outline of the enemy will be visible through the wall so you can spot them more easily.
Additionally, a bunch of minor bug fixes and adjustments were made.
In Destiny 2, the bounty “Wanted: Waveflayer Summoner” is live. Here’s how to kill the new enemy for powerful loot.
Who is the Waveflayer Summoner? The Waveflayer Summoner is an enemy who has escaped from the Prison of Elders. Spider in the Tangled Shore asks you to eliminate him in the weekly bounty “Wanted: Waveflayer Summoner”.
Spider brings a bounty every week that has this powerful gear as a reward. However, be aware that there is currently a problem with the powerful loot. It may drop at a too low Power Level.
Spider
Location and Mechanic of the Waveflayer Summoner
Here’s how the bounty goes:
Step 1: Go to Spider in the Tangled Shore and buy the bounty “Wanted: Waveflayer Summoner” for five Ghost Fragments. You obtain Ghost Fragments in the Tangled Shore by completing, for example, public events or other bounties from Spider.
You must be at least Power Level 500 to accept the bounty. Recommended Power Level is 540. The bounty expires 7 days after purchase.
Step 2: Now fly to Titan. An adventure mission appears in the Rig, appropriately named “Wanted: Waveflayer Summoner.” It will be displayed on the map. Head there.
Step 3: The adventure leads you into a Lost Sector. Fight through until you encounter the Waveflayer Ogre and a Witch – the Waveflayer Summoner: The Witch has a shield that makes her immune to damage.
The fight against the Waveflayer Summoner: The mechanic involves eliminating the Ogre first, which destroys the shield of the Witch. Then you can deal damage to the Witch. Once the Witch is dead, the mission is complete.
The fight and location are showcased by Nexxoss Gaming in the video:

The Waveflayer Ogre is tough. It can take a lot of damage. If you are below the recommended Power Level of 540, you should definitely start the adventure with a fireteam.
You have no time limit. Take your time, defeat the enemies from a safe distance. If your fireteam dies, you must start over.
Keep an eye on your surroundings. Exploding Thralls will constantly spawn and sneak up on you.
To receive the loot, you must still turn in the completed bounty in your inventory.
The Waveflayer Summoner is currently the fourth weekly bounty at Spider that drops powerful gear. You can find the previous ones here:
The Community Day in October for Pokémon GO will feature Tanhel. Additionally, Niantic has increased the time for evolutions.
What’s new? Every month, an event called Community Day takes place in Pokémon GO. It’s usually active on one day of a weekend for three hours. On October 21, the event will run featuring the Psychic and Steel Pokémon Tanhel.
A new feature for evolutions is being added. Niantic listened to fan feedback and extended the time window during which you can evolve Tanhel for the special move.
What do we know about the event? The special move for Tanhel has not yet been officially revealed. However, we have the following info and bonuses:
What? The Community Day in October
When? On Sunday, October 21, from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM German time. You need to add two hours to the time in the in-game announcement (9:00 AM – 12:00 PM) because we are in the GMT+2 time zone.
Which Pokémon? Tanhel
Exclusive move? Unknown, but it will be learned by Metagross. The exclusive move for Metagross may be Meteor Mash – data for this has already been found in a data mining.
What bonuses? Egg hatching distance reduced to a quarter, 3-hour lure modules
Additional bonus: You can evolve Metang for an hour after the event to obtain Metagross with the special event move. In the German in-game notification, this explanation is missing, but it is mentioned in the English announcement. For you, this means that you can also conduct your evolutions from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM to obtain Metagross with the event move.
Joy in the community: Trainers are happy about this extended evolution time window. Dronpes, head of TheSilphRoad, says: “Very nice! Now in the last 20 minutes of the event, it no longer means: Wait, don’t talk to me for a minute, I have to quickly check a million IVs and evolve.”
As a result, Niantic is increasing the time you can take advantage of the event and catch the many wild Tanhel without stress, without rushing in the last minutes. How do you like this change?
The virtual ticket for BlizzCon comes with some rewards in World of Warcraft. We will tell you what is available this year.
Those who are present live at BlizzCon 2018 or purchase a virtual ticket will also receive some goodies in World of Warcraft in 2018. The highlight for most players will likely be the participation in the demo of WoW: Classic, but there are also two in-game rewards available in the current version.

Cloak of the faction: Players receive a unique cloak for both factions that displays the emblem of the Alliance or the emblem of the Horde. The cloak is a cosmetic item and can be used for transmogification. It has no stats.
Battle banner of both factions: In addition, there is a battle banner of the Horde or the Alliance, a toy for your collection. With it, you can repeatedly set up an (impressive) standard and showcase your allegiance – or just show off a bit that you even own the banners.
How much does the virtual ticket cost? The virtual ticket for BlizzCon costs a hefty 40 euros this year and has thus become a bit more expensive than in previous years. No reason for the price increase was given. However, those who only want to experience the latest announcements do not need a virtual ticket. The “Opening Ceremony” with all important new announcements is, as usual, free for all interested parties.
Community reaction is rather subdued: The goodies this year are not particularly well received by players. This is mainly because last year there was a really cool mount – an airship of the Horde or the Alliance. For many players, a cloak and a banner as toys seem like a massive step back and they are disappointed.
What do you think of the WoW goodies from this year’s BlizzCon? Are you completely satisfied? Or are you among the disappointed players? Will you still buy the ticket?
