In Destiny 2 Forsaken you can unlock new supers, new focuses, and thus new abilities. Here you will learn how to get the Seed of Light and the subclass alternatives for Titan, Hunter, and Warlock.
With the Forsaken expansion you can skill your Guardians with a total of 9 new super attacks – three for the Hunter, three for the Warlock, and three for the Titan. These super attacks are part of new subclass paths, each Void, Arc, and Solar focus receiving a new path.
These subclass paths are not immediately available at the Forsaken launch. You have to unlock them one by one.
How to get the new subclasses along with supers – Titan, Hunter, Warlock
Step 1: Complete the first mission of the Forsaken campaign. This is the prerequisite to receive the new supers.
Step 2: Return to the Tower and talk to Ikora Rey. She gives you the task of finding visions of light. The milestone is called “New Abilities.”
Step 3: Collect 100 visions of light. You can find them in adventures, lost sectors, strikes, and crucible matches, or when you defeat powerful enemies – those are foes with yellow and orange health bars.
Tip: If you play public events in the Tangled Shore, you will find the visions of light very quickly. Because there you will encounter many powerful enemies that spread visions of light across the ground. Collect these glowing particles. This quest step can be easily completed alongside the story.
Step 4: Once you have all the visions of light, a new quest step activates on Io – you must tackle this solo, recommended power is 380. On Io you can kill the Taken to free strange trees that you see in visions. Make sure to find and eliminate all the Taken around the trees. Only then does the quest continue. It leads you to a lost sector where Vex and Taken fight against each other. Kill them all.
Step 5: Once you have completed this, you will receive a Seed of Light. You can use this once to activate one of the three subclass paths of your Guardian.
Select a super (you unlock the remaining nodes of the new subclass path by defeating enemies with the new super and abilities) and test it against various enemies. At the glowing trees, you can recharge the super directly. Once all enemies are defeated, the quest is over and you have your new super.
How do I get more Seeds of Light to unlock the remaining supers?
Second Seed of Light: The second seed for the second new super has been found:
For this, you must enter the Dreaming City and participate in the endgame activity “Blind Well.” Recommended power level is 540, so you should first skill your Guardians.
You must complete rank-2 challenges in the Blind Well. To activate these, you need items that drop randomly or that you can buy from Petra. For this, you have to complete bounties for Petra.
A Seed of Light can randomly drop in Tier-2 Blind Well matches.
3rd Seed of Light: After the first encounter in the Forsaken raid, you will receive the third seed. Recommended power level is 560. Additionally, if you hand in a Offering at the Oracle. But only if the Dreaming City is in its final curse phase.
All new supers at a glance
The new supers of the Hunters:
With the Solar super Blade Barrage, Hunters can throw knives multiple times in the air.
With the Void super Spectral Blades, Hunters become invisible and then reappear with deadly knives behind their enemies.
With the Arc super Whirlwind Guard, Hunters can now also use their staff for defense and even reflect projectiles.

A new MMO set in the Lord of the Rings universe has recently been announced. But what should such a game look like today?
The new Lord of the Rings MMO: The Chinese company Leyou, which also owns a large portion of Warframe studio Digital Extremes, recently announced the establishment of the publishing brand Athlon Games.
A Free2Play MMO set in the Lord of the Rings universe for PC and consoles is supposed to be created there. However, there is hardly any concrete information. What do you think this game should be like?
The ideal setting for a theme park MMORPG
Today, let’s play “What do the fans want” and assume a classic theme park MMORPG for the new MMO. However, this is not confirmed.
Such games primarily rely on story and a linear PvE progress through the game world, which is increasingly explored by players over the course of the story.
The old Lord of the Rings Online, The Elder Scrolls Online, or World of Warcraft are such games.
Since the Lord of the Rings universe contains a lot of lore and details, this approach would be the most suitable.
But what else should be included?
What belongs in a Lord of the Rings MMO?
The following features could play a larger or smaller role in an upcoming Lord of the Rings MMORPG:
Does the story play a significant role and are there choices and interactions? Are the quests fully voiced?
Will the combat system be the classic tab-targeting system like in World of Warcraft? Or should an action combat system with combos and active dodging be used instead?
Is it important that players can get creative in housing and build their cozy Hobbit dream house with decorations and knickknacks?
The previous LoTR MMORPG is especially popular among role players. How important are social features and interaction possibilities among players for you?
Do you want dynamic PvP campaigns where players fight in large numbers over an open world? Or do you prefer a structured mode for PvP where battles take place in special arenas and battlegrounds?
Do you want a complex crafting system where players can create particularly strong items?
Should your hero scale depending on the region or instance so that you can always play with any other player?
Should the game place great emphasis on PvE endgame with raids and complex boss fights?
Mein-MMO Survey on the modern Lord of the Rings MMO
In our survey, you can vote on what you think is the most important feature for a new Lord of the Rings MMORPG. But you only have one vote, so choose wisely!

Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 receives its own battle royale mode. Developer Treyarch has now revealed a bit more about Blackout.
While other battle royale games like PUBG or Fortnite focus on 100 players or more per match, Treyarch wants to reduce this for the Call-of-Duty-Black-Ops-4-Battle-Royale. And there is a specific reason for that.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Blackout – From 100 down to 80 players in the beta
Why does Blackout have less than 100 players? Treyarch states that Blackout will have 80 players competing against each other. However, internal tests were conducted with 100 players per match.
The reason given is that gameplay takes priority over the number of players. If Blackout feels better and plays better with 80 players, then this is more important than trying desperately to fit in 100 players.
The player count could still increase: As Treyarch announces, the 80 players per match are at least applicable for the Call-of-Duty-Black-Ops-4-Blackout-Beta. It is likely that the number might change after the tests.
Even at the launch of the shooter, the number of players is not set in stone. The development team wants to continuously work on improvements with the community. And if it turns out that Blackout is more fun with more players and everything works well, the player count could still be adjusted after release.
This is what fans think about the player count:Discussions about this announcement are already taking place on Reddit. Most players are fine with there being only 80 players at the start. Many do not understand why one must always reach the “golden number 100” as the perfect player count of a battle royale title.
As long as the Call-of-Duty-Black-Ops-4-Battle-Royale plays well, the player count is secondary – provided it does not become extremely low.
Many in the community already consider 64 players to be borderline. However, most find 80 participants in a match completely acceptable – especially since this only applies to the Call-of-Duty-Black-Ops-4-Blackout-Beta.
What do you think about the number of players per Blackout match in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4? Is 80 players enough?

With the Forsaken expansion for Destiny 2, a new public event has been added. We will show you how to start this public event heroically.
The new public event in Forsaken takes place in the Wirrbucht and revolves around a cryo capsule, in which a powerful, wanted enemy lies dormant. The enemy race may vary from event to event.
This big chunk then rises from its escape pod and you must either take it out as part of the event, or – even better – freeze it again and prepare it for teleport back. That is exactly what the heroic version of this public event is about.
Source: YouTube – Venero TV
Cryo Capsule Event in the Wirrbucht – Here’s how it works
Here’s how to find the event: You can find the new public event on the map of Wirrbucht or by the corresponding flag that indicates the exact event location in the new area.
This is what makes the new event special: As soon as the event is triggered, you must fend off two waves of enemies defending the crashed cryo capsule. There is nothing specific to keep in mind here. Just kill everything that gets in your way until you have survived both waves.
If you have successfully mowed down through both waves of enemies, the cryo capsule will open and the sought-after event boss will rise from it. If you follow the event description and simply take him out, you will complete the event – but only in the normal version. The tooltips do not provide any real hints on how to start the heroic version.
Source: YouTube – Venero TV
How to activate the Cryo Capsule Event heroically – Here’s what you need to do
To trigger this public event heroically, you must do the following:
First fight the boss: Once the boss has exited, you can charge at him. However, he will quickly receive reinforcements. So take out some of his minions as well – that will make your life a bit easier. Then concentrate again on the final boss.
Watch out: It is important not to kill the boss. If you send him to the virtual afterlife instead of back to jail, the event will be over and you will no longer have the opportunity to activate it heroically.
Watch for the steaming vents: Shortly after the reinforcements arrive, an electric energy field forms on the ground around the capsule. If you enter it, your movements will be slowed, and you will take damage over time.
During this phase, you must focus more on the cryo capsule. There are vent outlets on the side of the capsule that start smoking. The two smoking vent covers must now be shot down.
Source: YouTube – Venero TV
In the open vents, a type of frost orbs will then appear. These can be picked up and thrown at the boss. This slowly slows down his movements and completely freezes him after three hits with the orb.
Important: For the second pair of vents to start steaming and for you to be able to take the third and – if necessary – a fourth frost orb, you must have shot the boss down to about one third of his health.
Final Phase: Once you have frozen the final boss, the heroic public event will start. A circular zone will then form around him, which you must hold and capture until his transport by teleport. If you succeed in this, you have successfully completed the event heroically.
The heroic public event in the video: If you still need visual assistance, we have linked a video from Venero TV for you, where the event is also explained in detail.

Warfronts are one of the major new features in World of Warcraft. Here you will find all the important information regarding the BfA feature.
To open the Warfronts, we have answered all the important questions for you. With our information, you are well prepared for the new content.
[toc]
What are Warfronts?
In Warfronts, Horde and Alliance fight in Battle for Azeroth for control over strategically important points in Azeroth. One faction occupies such a position, while the other tries to take it. If successful, the tables will turn.
The first Warfront in Battle for Azeroth will be the Arathi Highlands. However, there will be more Warfronts at a later date. There are already hints that the Barrens will become a Warfront.
Do I have to play PvP for this?
No. Warfronts are a pure PvE activity for up to 20 players who fight in a battle for control. Players build a base and lead troops into the field.
The goal is to eliminate one of the various enemy NPC commanders that can occupy the points before they can repel the attack.
If you participate in Warfronts or if your faction controls a Warfront, you can grab various rewards.
Weapons and armor from the Warfronts
The Warfronts reward you with cosmetic armor and weapons that you can use for transmogification. The gear is based on the model of PvP gear for Season 26, the first PvP season in BfA.
The gear comes for the Arathi Warfront in a specific color combination that reflects the colors of the Horde and Alliance. There are three variants of the armor:
The “Tier 1” variant you receive randomly after completing a Warfront. Several pieces can drop per week.
The “Tier 2” variant you receive from rare enemies and world bosses in Arathi and from reputation vendors of your war faction (Tidebound or 7th Legion).
The “Tier 3” variant may be randomly included in the reward chests for the weekly Warfront quest.

Quests and world bosses
If your faction has taken a Warfront, you gain access to outdoor activities in the Arathi Highlands. The area will be phased for you, where you can kill rare enemies and a world boss or complete quests.
As long as your faction holds the Warfront, you can be transported directly from the capital to the area. For participating in Warfronts, preparing for the Warfront, and completing quests, you will gain reputation with the Tidebound (Horde) or the 7th Legion (Alliance).
The world bosses in the areas, Azerite War Machines of the Horde or Alliance, drop loot with an item level of 370.
Azerite War Machines will be the bosses in Arathi.
Pets, toys, and mounts
When defeating rare enemies or world bosses, you also have the chance to loot specific mounts, pets, and toys.
In total, you can collect six different mounts, nine pets, and nine toys in the Arathi Warfront.
Image source: wowhead.
How to start a Warfront
Warfronts are divided into four phases that cycle continually, lasting longer or shorter depending on player participation. The Warfront around Stromgarde will proceed as follows:
Phase 1: The Alliance holds the castle of Stromgarde at the start of the feature. Alliance players then have access to various activities such as world bosses, quests, and rare enemies.
During this time, the Horde collects resources to start a siege. You can daily hand in war resources, gold, or materials in Atal’Dazar to advance the war effort. You will receive Azerite and reputation for this.
This is what the Horde’s war preparation looks like. Image source: wowhead.
The war efforts will advance for the entire region, similar to the Broken Shore in Legion. Once the progress bar reaches 100%, the entire region will move to Phase 2.
Phase 2: The Horde starts their attack. During this time, all Horde players can sign up for a Warfront scenario and participate. Registration will be available for a certain time.
Phase 3: After the Horde has taken Stromgarde and fortified their own castle of Ar’Gorok, the Alliance begins the preparation phase. In Boralus, you can now hand in the necessary materials and prepare for battle.
During this time, the Horde has control over Arathi and access to the content in the Arathi Highlands.
Phase 4: When enough resources are available, the Alliance will launch their counter-attack to reclaim the Arathi Highlands. Now Alliance players can sign up for the scenario. After that, the cycle starts over.
Register for a Warfront and join it
In the phases where you can register for a Warfront scenario, you must complete a short questline to unlock Warfronts for yourself. The questline starts after you have gathered enough resources.
Once you have qualified for Warfronts, you can sign up for a scenario in the capital, similar to how you would for island expeditions. Warfronts are designed for 20 players.
To participate, you must reach level 120 and complete the war campaign far enough to unlock world quests.
A Warfront scenario is expected to last about 45 minutes, and you should be able to sign up for it at any time during that period.
The individual phases last according to information from wowhead roughly 2 days. However, this duration depends on how quickly players can gather resources. Whether you win or lose a Warfront scenario should not matter.
How a Warfront scenario is structured
A Warfront operates differently than the previously known content from World of Warcraft. You do not directly fight enemies like in a battleground, but build a base and command troops like in a strategy game.
Resources
In a Warfront, you must gather resources to build, upgrade, or train and strengthen troops. There are two regular resources and one rare resource.
Wood: You obtain wood by logging in the Axe Ridge. After you have taken the area, you can fell trees with a quest axe or collect already felled piles to obtain wood. A maximum of 100 units is possible.
Iron: Iron is produced in the Drybark Mine. Once you have captured the mine, you passively receive iron. If you upgrade your base, you will receive more iron as well. To collect the material, click on the chest in the main building or from carts in the mine. Players with mining can mine iron directly. A maximum of 200 units is possible.
Iron is available in carts. Image source: wowhead.
Essence of the Storms: The Essence of the Storms is unique and can be looted from some enemy units. The essence can be exchanged at the Altar of Storms for a buff that increases your health points, healing, and damage by 150% and movement speed by 50%.
The buff lasts for 5 minutes and also strengthens nearby troops. Your teammates will be notified when you receive an essence.
Buildings
There are various buildings in Warfronts that you can build and upgrade, in which you purchase troops and upgrades. Buildings are constructed by players contributing until enough resources are available.
Image source: wowhead.
The Main Building
Your attack begins at the main building. You must build and upgrade it to access further buildings.
Level 1 – “Great Hall”: Required to build other buildings. You must kill the enemy officer to take it over.
Level 2 – “Stronghold”/”Keep”: Requires 380 iron and 180 wood, as well as an Altar of Storms and an arsenal for the upgrade
Increases the number of workers gathering iron.
Increases the rate at which units are trained in the barracks.
Unlocks special units in the barracks.
Level 3 – “Fortress”/”Castle”: Requires 620 iron and 260 wood as well as a workshop for the upgrade
Increases the number of workers gathering iron.
Increases the rate at which units are trained in the barracks.
Increases the damage of devastators/siege machines.
Commanders can use special abilities.

Barracks
In the barracks, you can train troops. For construction, you need 140 iron and 140 wood as well as a main building. Training troops costs you iron, and you can train as many as you want.
Trained troops appear at the barracks and move towards the enemy along all three available paths to engage them in combat.
The Horde troops in the barracks. Image source: wowhead.
War Workshop
The War Workshop is your primary building for upgrading the weapons and armor of your troops. For construction, you need 260 iron and 140 wood as well as a barracks.
You can donate wood or iron in the War Workshop for research on better armor or weapons for your troops. These enhance the health points or attack power of the units.
The upgrades. Image source: wowhead.
Altar of the Storms/Altar of Kings
At the Altar of the Storms, you can buy upgrades for yourself. Building this requires 260 iron, 140 wood, and a barracks.
In exchange for iron, wood, or an Essence of the Storms, you can buy various buffs here that increase your health points, healing, and damage.
The possible buffs for the Horde. Image source: wowhead.
Workshop
The workshop is required to build war machines such as devastators/siege machines. For construction, you need 500 iron, 220 wood, and a “Stronghold” upgrade for the main building.
Devastators/siege machines can be purchased in the workshop for 80 iron and are needed to tear down siege towers or the gates of Stromgarde castle. You must escort them to fulfill their purpose.
Image source: wowhead.
Bases
During the battle, you can capture tactical outposts in various ways, which will grant you advantages. To capture a base, you must kill the occupying officer. The enemy can also launch a counter-attack once you have taken a base.
Axe Ridge/The Highlands sawmill – western path, first base: Produces wood.
New Farm – western path, second base: Unlocks cavalry in the barracks and gives you access to a mount with special abilities for 60 iron directly on site.
Drystubble Mine/Galson’s Mine – eastern path, first base: Produces iron.
Circle of Elements – eastern path, second base: Unlocks shamans and gives you access to an elemental spirit as a companion for 50 iron directly on site.
Northcross/Hero’s Call Pass – central path, first base: The bases are guarded by two siege towers that must be destroyed by the devastators/siege machines. Only then is the way to the fortress free.
High Position – central path, second base: Unlocks flight routes between the bases. Devastators/siege machines will stop here and begin the siege.
Kodos are a reward for Horde players in New Farm. Image source: wowhead.
What is the goal of the Warfront, how do you win?
You must use the devastators/siege machines to tear down the fortress gate to gain access to Stromgarde/Ar’gorok. There, many enemy troops await you that you must repel to progress.
Once you are deep enough into the fortress, you must defeat the commander of the opposing troops. Each faction has one of three possible opponents:
Horde
High Exarch Turalyon
Muradin Bronzebeard
Danath Trollbane
One possible opponent of the Horde: Turalyon.
Alliance
Rokhan
Eitrigg
Lady Liadrin
One of the possible opponents of the Alliance: Lady Liadrin.
Once you have defeated the opposing commander, you have won the Warfront for yourself.
Cayde’s Exotic Hideout is the pre-order bonus for Destiny 2 Forsaken. Here you will learn how to get the pre-order items.
Guardians are looking for pre-order bonuses: On September 4, the Forsaken expansion launched, and numerous guardians successfully set off into year 2. However, some players are currently looking bewildered in their inventory and at the post office – because the promised pre-order bonuses are missing.
Bungie has since come forward and explained how you can get your loot.
How to get the pre-order items: You first need to complete the story campaign of Forsaken. Then go to Amanda Holliday, who is located in the Tower hangar. There you will receive the pre-order bonuses.
Exotic ornament “Last Leaf” for Cayde’s hand cannon Ace of Spades
Exotic ship “Heart Queen”
Exotic emote “Stalemate”
Armor shader “Cayde-6 Palette”
The shaders had a bug at launch: They have the wrong name, “Cayde’s Duds”, but they are the correct shaders, and the name is supposed to be corrected to “Cayde-6 Palette” in the future.
In this video, you can see the bonuses, such as the new emote, in action:

What about the bonuses of the Digital Deluxe Edition?
If you’re a buyer of the Digital Deluxe Edition, you’ll receive additional content, namely:
Majestic Wrath – Bow ornament for Leviathan’s Breath
Paladin’s Lament – Emblem
Vestian – Ghost shell
How do I get these bonuses? You will also receive the bonuses only after completing the Forsaken campaign. However, you don’t need to march to Amanda; you will receive them directly when you return to orbit after the campaign.
By the way: The emblem “Paladin’s Lament” has a bug. It is called “The Forsaken” in the game. This is supposed to be fixed in the near future.
Shortly after the release of the Forsaken expansion for Destiny 2, it became known how to obtain the exotic hand cannon Cayde-6’s Ace of Spades. You must go through everything to get the Ace of Spades.
The personal hand cannon of the fallen Hunter Vanguard leader Cayde-6 is one of the many new firearms introduced in the Forsaken expansion. However, besides taking revenge on Cayde’s murderer Uldren, Guardians have a lot to do if they want to obtain the Ace of Spades.
Warning: Possible story spoilers ahead. Read on at your own risk!
Pikass in Destiny 2: Forsaken – Here’s how you need to work for the weapon
To obtain the Pikass, you need to complete a multi-part questline that starts after finishing the Forsaken story. Guardians receive the quest from the Gunsmith Banshe-44 when they speak to him after bringing Cayde to the Tower following his death. Banshe will have a corresponding quest symbol above his head – he is hard to miss.
Step 1 – Get the Pikass from Uldren
First, Guardians must take revenge on Uldren Sov and the eight Barons for Cayde-6’s death. This step is a prerequisite for obtaining the Pikass. As part of the Forsaken campaign, Guardians must defeat Uldren Sov and retrieve the Pikass from him.
Step 2 – Bring the Pikass to the Gunsmith
Once you have retrieved the weapon from Uldren, it will be damaged. You must take it to Banshe-44 to repair it. He will need some biorhythmic data to complete the repairs.
Step 3 – Gambit Kills
Now, you need to achieve five PvP kills with any hand cannon in Gambit. Since Update 2.0.3.1, it no longer matters whether you eliminate invaders or get the kills yourself as an intruder in the enemy territory. All kills of human opponents count.
Step 4 – Strike Kills
In this step, you must eliminate 250 enemies using any hand cannon in Strikes.
Step 5 – Crucible Kills
In PvP, you need to achieve 25 precision kills with any hand cannon.
Step 6 – Find Cayde’s Chests
There are a total of four chests scattered across the Solar System. You will need to find all four to obtain new parts for the Ace of Spades. The chests are located in the EDZ on Earth, on IO, on Nessus, and in the Tangled Shore.
By the way: Once you are near the chests, you will be notified of this with a message on the left side of the screen.
Locations of Cayde’s Chests: You can find the exact locations in the video by Nexxoss Gaming that we will embed here:

Now you will need to complete the mission “Ace in the Hole” on Titan. The recommended power level is 460. There, you need to collect 10 personal chests from Cayde-6. After the mission ends, you will have all the necessary parts to restore the Pikass.
Step 8 – Bring the parts to the Gunsmith
Now return to Banshe-44 with all the required weapon parts. In exchange, you will receive the ready-to-use exotic hand cannon from Cayde-6.
A bug causes some players in World of Warcraft to have items with item level 415. We reveal what went wrong.
Blizzard apparently had different expectations. A bug in World of Warcraft caused numerous players to receive items ranging from item level 380 to 415 this week – and that without doing anything.
What happened? Anyone who completed a “Mythic+” dungeon in “Legion” last week could open a reward chest on American servers yesterday. However, the reward inside was based on the last “Mythic+” dungeon completed in Legion! So, if someone completed a “Mythic +15” dungeon, they received a reward as if they had completed such a dungeon in Battle for Azeroth.
What is the consequence? As a result, many players on the US servers have now received items with item levels between 360 and 415. This includes weapons, which leads to a massive boost in performance. Players received rewards that they normally could not earn.
Items like these were available to many American players – unjustly.
Fans demand rollback: Many players are currently demanding that Blizzard should implement a “rollback”, meaning the weapons and equipment should be removed retroactively. It would be completely unfair if players now carried weapons with item level 400+. The race for first kills and also the PvP of Battle for Azeroth would be ruined for weeks or months. Blizzard reacts quickly: The developers reacted promptly to the bug and have already deactivated the chest after just a few hours. So, those who weren’t fast enough won’t receive this reward anymore. Meanwhile, more and more players are receiving a letter stating that they accidentally received incorrect loot. The loot will be taken away from these players.
For Europe, this bug comes too late. Here, the faulty reward chest has already been deactivated.
What do you think about this issue? Is it right for Blizzard to take the items away from all players? Or how would you solve the problem?
Actually, the new update 5.40 for Fortnite was supposed to be available today, Wednesday. However, this and the new High Stakes event will unfortunately not happen. Epic is postponing the update, which also affects the weekly challenges of week 9.
Epic is struggling with bugs: As the Fortnite developer recently announced, the update 5.40 is being postponed due to a critical issue identified with controllers. Which controllers are affected and what the issues look like in detail is currently unknown.

What does this mean for update 5.40? The update will not be rolled out until Thursday, September 6th. The postponement of the update also coincides with the High Stakes event, which will also be unlocked on Thursday.
The weekly challenges are also being postponed: Since the schedule has now been pushed back by one day overall, the weekly challenges for week 9 will also be moved back by one day to Friday, September 7th.
So, anyone who wanted to know which reward awaits in the final ninth week for the Road Trip skin will have to wait one more day.
Epic is also working on issues with the Nintendo Switch version: As the developer stated through its in-house bug tool, they are currently working with Nintendo to fix performance issues on the Nintendo Switch.
Specifically, landing in Tilted Towers is turning into pure luck on Nintendo’s console. Textures are not loading, leaving you helpless against enemies. Epic plans to deliver a corresponding update with version 5.40.
What do you think about this? Are you looking forward to the new High Stakes mode?
A new trailer for Battlefield 5 provides insights into gameplay, the various locations, and the battle royale mode “Firestorm”.
In the new Battlefield 5 trailer, there is a lot of information about the upcoming game modes. You can learn more about the locations, and there are also new details about the Last-Man-Standing mode.
What do we know about Firestorm?
The BR mode in Battlefield V is called Firestorm. The name comes from the fact that a wall of fire shrinks the playable area.
Not the usual 100 players: DICE has set Firestorm apart from the “typical” 100-player battle royale. The mode is apparently only for 4-player squads. In total, there is space for 64 players, meaning 16 teams.
Vehicles are also included: It is now clear that there will also be vehicles in the Firestorm mode. Whether these are already on the map from the beginning or spawn during a match is still unclear. The trailer shows tanks driving across the Firestorm map.
Destroying buildings: With the heavy tanks, you can destroy some buildings scattered across the map. This could be an interesting method against campers who hide in or behind buildings.
The largest Battlefield map: In the video, it is once again mentioned that the Firestorm spectacle will be played on the largest map ever seen in a Battlefield game.
Weapons on the map: On the map, there are supposed to be destructible buildings, weapons, and vehicles. Whether these weapons are scattered across the map as is common in BR games is unclear. You could also start with some basic equipment and find special weapons on the map that you have to fight over. Similar to a supply drop in PUBG or Fortnite.
More multiplayer modes: The rest of the trailer discusses the various additional game modes. 8 multiplayer modes are supposed to be available at launch.
If you are excited about Battlefield 5, you can already start the preload for the open beta:
In Destiny 2 today, on September 4th, the Weekly Reset marks the start of Forsaken and Year 2. You can learn about which activities, like the Nightfall strike or the Flashpoint, are live at the Forsaken launch here.
The first week of Forsaken: Our reporting on the weekly activities in Destiny 2 is a bit different today than usual. Today is a special day: The Forsaken era begins – coinciding with the Weekly Reset. Together with countless other Guardians, we are diving into the action right from the start and reporting on what you need to do now.
Most of you will dive straight into the campaign and begin the Forsaken adventure with Cayde-6. If you can’t play yourself today, you have these two options:
Nightfall Strikes starting September 4th on PS4, Xbox One, and PC
Since update 2.0.0, you can choose between three Nightfall strikes weekly. This week there are:
Warden of Nothing – New strike centered around the Drifter, the Gambit lead
A Garden World
The Arms Dealer
The recommended power level is 540. Modifiers are only available through the Challenge Card. Gear is locked during the activity.
Strikes and Story Missions
In the heroic story missions, there are the modifiers Voidburn, Earthed (you take more damage while in the air), and Heavyweight (power weapons deal more damage). Recommended power is 280 or 310 for certain missions.
In the Vanguard Strikes, the same modifiers are active. You can choose the difficulties
Level 30 – 300 Power
Level 40 – 400 Power
Level 50 – 500 Power
to select.
Crucible
In the Crucible, there are:
Quick Play
Competitive
Rumble
Doubles
Private Match
Gambit can also be launched directly.
In Quick Play, Competitive, Rumble, and Doubles, there are Weekly Challenges (by completing 5 matches).
Escalation Protocol
If the rotation is maintained, you will have the chance on the final boss of the Escalation Protocol this week to receive:
Cayde-6 is no longer in the Tower, as already mentioned last week. The Flashpoint takes place from today in the EDZ with Devrim Kay.
In the Tower Bazaar, there is now the Gambit lead, the Drifter. He has four bounties for you, so grab them. In the bounties, you need to complete a Gambit match, defeat enemies, and summon blockers.
Ikora Rey doesn’t have anything for you.
Hawthorne has three bounties for you.
In the Prestige Raid, Gladiator (melee kills boost weapon damage and weapon kills boost melee) is active. In the kinetic slot, you need a shotgun, for energy weapon an auto rifle, and for power weapon a rocket launcher.
Tess Everis sells shimmer engrams called “Steadfast Engram”, the contents of which can be inspected. There you can see exotic emotes, sparrows, ships, weapon ornaments, and much more.
Some items you can buy directly from her by switching to page 2, such as an “Accidental Dance”, a sparrow, a ship, a ghost shell, a shader, a leg armor, and a weapon ornament for the Colony. Those are the Forsaken items she offers directly. The rest were available before.
Additionally, Tess has lots of bounties on offer that yield prism shards and shimmering dust.
How our Weekly Reset article will look in the future will crystallize over the coming days and weeks. After all, much is changing in Year 2. In addition to the continuing weekly rotating activities like the raid and raid activities, other milestones, like Flashpoints, will be switched to a four-day cycle.
The previous milestones are now called “Challenges” and will no longer be listed in a milestone list but shown in the navigator alongside the corresponding activity. What’s changing in the weekly activities we have summarized here:
The update 2.0.0.1 for Destiny 2 can now be downloaded and installed. On PS4, it carries version number Update 1.24. Bungie has now released the patch notes for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
The update 2.0.0.1 (version number 1.24) for Destiny 2 is now live. The Day One patch for Forsaken is between 7.25 GB and 7.6 GB depending on the platform, and must be downloaded and installed so you can play Destiny 2 again as soon as the servers are back online after maintenance.

It costs nothing more to apply shaders to gear
Infusion
Infusion maximum for all gear before and from Forsaken is 600 power

Prisma Matrix Schedule
The Prisma Matrix is now time-scheduled for the entire season

This allows players at all levels to receive their free weekly roll
Eververse Bounties
Each seasonal Bright Engram now offers a bounty token
These bounty tokens can be exchanged for a variety of weekly Eververse bounties, which are available in 3 tiers:
Players can accept as many Eververse bounties as they have tokens

Once players reach the maximum level, Bright Engrams will be granted as before
General

The Extreme Behemoth will soon disappear again from Monster Hunter World. The monster was only available during an event on PS4 and Xbox One. The PC has a different event rotation.
How long will Extreme Behemoth be around? Until Friday, September 7th, at 2:00 AM. The Extreme Behemoth will then disappear on the night from Thursday to Friday. It is part of the quest “A Visitor from Eorzea (Extreme)”, which is part of the event rotation. The “normal” Behemoth, on the other hand, is permanently in the game.
You must be at least Hunter Rank 50 to be able to take on the Extreme Behemoth quest.
When will Extreme Behemoth return? This is still unknown. Other event monsters like Kulve Taroth make appearances at regular intervals.
When will Extreme Behemoth come to PC? This is also still unknown. No announcement has been made yet for the DLC monsters. On PC, there are other events and you can obtain a Wobble Worm Helmet.
Extreme Behemoth is a hardened monster
The Extreme Behemoth is considered one of the toughest boss opponents in the entire game. This is mainly due to the new mechanics it introduces: spells and aggro. Here you will need to fight the Behemoth like in an MMORPG.
Extreme Behemoth drives players to despair: As a hardened monster, the Extreme Behemoth uses its spells more frequently. These include tornadoes, lightning, and meteors raining down from the sky. Lightning capsules lose effectiveness against him. You are forced to have a tank present to draw the beast’s aggro (attention).
Thus, a special relationship has developed between fans and Extreme Behemoth:
Decorative armor as a reward: The challenge alone is already something special for many. However, those who manage to take down the beast will be rewarded with decorative armor. The Dragoon set is inspired by the Dragooners from Final Fantasy (XIV), where the Behemoth also originates from.
Anyone wanting to grab the Dragoon decorative armor still has time until September 7th.
Which events are coming next to PS4 and Xbox?
As soon as the Extreme Behemoth is gone, a new event rotation will begin on the consoles. The new rotation will run from September 7th to September 14th.
These will be the new event quests:
The Voracious Greet (JR 6): Here you can win vouchers
Wild Tower Bolero (JR 13): Increased chance of Gold crowns for Kulu-Ya-Ku, Barroth, Rathian, Diablos
The Eye of the Storm (JR 50): Kill a battle-hardened Kushala Daora for the Kushala-γ armor set and the Guild Cross decorative armor
Today, the Forsaken expansion for Destiny 2 launches. Join us live here – in the livestream and the live ticker.
When does Forsaken start? Today, on September 4th at around 7 PM, new adventures will begin in the Destiny universe. At this time, the servers are expected to come back online. If you have installed Update 1.24 / 2.0.0.1, you can then jump into Forsaken.
How can I follow the launch live? If you can’t be in front of your console or PC at 7 PM because you are still on the go, haven’t installed the update yet, or simply enjoy watching others battle through Forsaken, then you can now sit back and watch our friend Nexxoss Gaming.
Nexxoss Gaming will take you into the Forsaken expansion and show you his first hours in Year 2. We embed his Twitch stream here:
https://www.twitch.tv/nexxossgaming
Nexxoss Gaming will be online at the latest by 6:30 PM.
What should I expect at launch? We’ll be live updating!
There will likely be an enormous rush on the servers at launch, which may lead to queues and various error codes. So don’t expect everything to run smoothly exactly at 7 PM.
We at MeinMMO will accompany the launch and continuously update this article should there be an outbreak of error code beasts or a server collapse.
Live ticker:
Update 6:20 PM: If you want to quickly catch up on the most important information about Forsaken before the launch, you can read our article with the 6 most important things about Forsaken.
Queues possible: Bungie has announced that you might find yourself in queues when trying to log in. A lot of traffic is expected on the servers.
Update 6:25 PM: The servers are still offline. If you try to log in, you get the message “Destiny 2 servers are currently unavailable.”.
Update 6:34 PM: The patch notes for the day one update are still not available. Sven is anxiously fidgeting in his chair. As soon as the information is here, he will deliver the article to you immediately.
Update 6:46 PM: Servers are still down. Let’s see if it starts right at 7 PM. DeeJ just tweeted that Bungie will be watching closely and responding accordingly at launch.
Update 6:57 PM: The servers seem to be reachable already. There’s a message that Destiny 2 is currently at capacity. However, the server down message is no longer appearing. I am in the queue on PS4, Nexxoss is on PC as well.
Update 7 PM: According to Bungie, the servers are online. Get ready for queues! I was already able to leave the queue, but it now says “Contacting servers” indefinitely.
Okay, I’m in. Nexxoss too. Let’s wait and see if it continues to run smoothly. The message that servers are being contacted is constantly displayed. Many players are reporting that it’s lagging quite a bit. But the servers are still holding.
At the beginning, there will be many prompts showing what’s new. On the right side in the navigator, the Tangled Shore is available as a new location. Here you start the new Destiny adventure. Recommended Power is 330.

The War Mode in World of Warcraft attracts many players to PvP. But what about our readers? We want to find out in this survey.
With Patch 8.0 and specifically the release of WoW: Battle for Azeroth, many players utilize the War Mode. But how many players really are there? Who enjoys the thrill of PvP surprises and who prefers to avoid this danger?
What is the War Mode? You can activate the War Mode in Orgrimmar (Horde) or Stormwind (Alliance). This way, players only see other players in War Mode and are marked for PvP.
Here, there are not only 10% more rewards in the form of gold or artifact power from world quests, but also 10% more experience during the leveling phase. Additionally, there are regular air drops with bonus loot and the PvP talents are permanently active.
For many inexperienced PvP players, this is enough incentive to play in War Mode.
War or Peace – Who uses the War Mode?
But what about our community? Do we have many readers who regularly dive into PvP, or do you prefer to enjoy the calm in PvE mode? Is PvP an optional affair for you that you only want in battlegrounds? Or is the constant allure of an attack something that enhances your gaming experience?
If you can’t see the survey, please check if you have an ad blocker enabled. It would also be nice if you could disable it on our site.
If you want to elaborate on your experiences with the War Mode in World of Warcraft, feel free to do so in the comments. Perhaps some amusing stories will come together.
Cortyn says: I have had the War Mode activated since Battle for Azeroth and have a lot of fun with it, but that often depends on my artifact fishing rod.
Of course, it is annoying to be taken down by a full group of enemies – but the frustration is manageable. One just has to keep in mind that it was a free choice and deactivating the mode is only a hearthstone away.

Leyou Technologies is a Chinese corporation that holds large shares in the Warframe developer Digital Extremes, among other interests. In a “Voluntary Business Announcement”, the company has now announced that it wants to establish a new publishing brand called “Athlon”, and a Lord of the Rings MMO will be the first work.
MMO in the Lord of the Rings universe: According to Leyou’s announcement, Athlon Games intends to develop a Free2Play MMO as its first work. For this purpose, they have entered into a collaboration with Middle-Earth Enterprises, the rights holders to the works of J.R.R. Tolkien and therefore to the entire Lord of the Rings franchise.
What we already know about the new Lord of the Rings game
Unfortunately, not much is yet known about the new Lord of the Rings MMO. However, the following information has emerged from the announcement by Leyou and the Athlon Games website:
What kind of game is it supposed to be? Athlon clearly stated that it specializes in Free2Play AAA titles for PC and consoles. So it probably won’t be a browser or mobile game.
Will the game have anything to do with Lord of the Rings Online? Nothing is known about that. However, the announcement did not mention any collaboration with the developers of Lord of the Rings Online.
What will the game be about? According to the announcement by Leyou and Athlon, the new Lord of the Rings game is set to play before the events of the books and films. Thus, you will work towards the epic occurrences later on. You will not be reenacting the plot of Tolkien’s works.
Player skepticism due to Free2Play and Chinese corporation
Many players are excited about the news of a new game from the world of the Lord of the Rings. However, some gamers are skeptical. On the MMORPG.com site, many critical voices can be heard, expressing doubts about the success of the new project.
These players find the focus of Athlon on Free2Play games problematic and are also concerned about the involvement of a Chinese conglomerate. On the other hand, Leyou is also associated with successful games like Warframe, which is widely regarded as a model example of fair Free2Play.
Also interesting: The classic Lord of the Rings Online continues in 2018:
