Buy Destiny 2 Forsaken – Which Edition for Beginners and Returners?

Sven Galitzki 3. September 2018 Reading time 6 minutes

The Forsaken expansion for Destiny 2 comes in numerous editions. We help you – whether you are a beginner or a returning player – to buy the right edition.

Do you want to dive into Forsaken in Destiny 2 as a beginner or continue your Guardian’s journey with the new autumn add-on as a returner or veteran, but wonder which of the many editions is right for you? With this overview, we want to simplify your choice a bit.

Because the right choice depends not only on personal preferences and additional content of some versions but is also significantly determined by whether and to what extent you already own Destiny 2.

The Forsaken Editions – The Pure Add-on

The pure Forsaken expansion (without the base game) will be available in several versions starting from September 4, 2018. Pre-orders are already possible.

Destiny 2: Forsaken for €39.99
Destiny 2: Forsaken + Annual Pass for €69.99
Destiny 2: Forsaken Digital Deluxe Edition for €79.99

The Digital Deluxe Edition includes the Forsaken expansion, the Annual Pass, and the Awoken Legends set consisting of:

Ornament for the Legendary Bow “Majestic Wrath”
Emblem “Paladin’s Lament”
Vestian Ghost Shell

Who are these editions for? These various editions of the Forsaken add-on are suitable for everyone who already owns Destiny 2 along with all previous content. Both the base game and DLC I “Curse of Osiris” and DLC II “Warmind” are required to play the Forsaken expansion.

If you want to check out Forsaken for yourself and then decide whether to continue or not, the regular version of the add-on is suitable. If you want to secure the additional content of the Annual Pass right away, you should opt for the corresponding edition. If you also want to secure some special in-game items, the Deluxe Edition is likely the right choice.

Here is an Amazon offer for the digital standard Forsaken version for PS4:

The Destiny 2: Forsaken Bundles – The Complete Packages

The bundles include the Forsaken expansion along with all previous contents of the game. Depending on the version, the Annual Pass – the year pass for the second year – comes additionally.

Destiny 2: Forsaken – Legendary Collection

What’s included? The Legendary Collection includes the base game, both Year 1 DLCs Curse of Osiris and Warmind, as well as the upcoming Forsaken expansion.

Furthermore, a character boost is included. This boost elevates a character of your choice to a level, allowing you to immediately start with the new Forsaken content.

The price: In the PS Store and Microsoft Store, the “Destiny 2: Forsaken – Legendary Collection” costs €69.99. In the Blizzard Shop and on Amazon, the PC version is available for €59.99. Pre-orders are already possible.

Destiny 2: Forsaken – Complete Collection

What’s included? The Complete Collection includes the base game, both Year 1 DLCs Curse of Osiris and Warmind, as well as the upcoming Forsaken expansion. Additionally, this edition also includes the Annual Pass, the year pass for the second year of Destiny 2.

A character boost is also included. This boost increases a character of your choice in power level, so you can immediately start with the new Forsaken content.

The price: The Destiny 2: Forsaken – Complete Collection is available for all three platforms for €99.99. Pre-orders are already possible.

Who are these bundles for? These editions are primarily aimed at newcomers who want to join Destiny 2 with Forsaken now. With this bundle, they will receive the complete Destiny 2 experience so far along with the upcoming new Forsaken expansion.

However, these bundles might also be quite interesting for returners and veterans. If you are missing one or both Year 1 DLCs, you now have the opportunity to get everything at a discounted total package. Both DLCs from the first year are required to play Forsaken.

Also, if you own the PS Plus version of Destiny 2, these bundles are recommended if you enjoyed the base game and want to continue your Guardian’s journey. While you essentially buy the base game again here, all the other included contents are mandatory if you want to continue with Forsaken. Only the Annual Pass is optional.

An alternative in this case would be to buy the Destiny 2 Expansion Pass for the first year (includes DLC I+II) for €19.99 (currently €17.99 on sale) along with one of the three Forsaken editions.

Destiny 2 Forsaken GameStop Bundle – Physical Collector’s Edition

What’s included? The exclusive GameStop Forsaken pre-order bundle includes a physical copy of the Destiny 2: Forsaken Legendary Collection, the “Cayde’s Last Stand” statue, and an “Earth” Velcro patch.

The Legendary Collection includes the base game, both Year 1 DLCs Curse of Osiris and Warmind, as well as the upcoming Forsaken expansion.

Additionally, a character boost is included. This boost increases the level of a character of your choice, allowing you to start immediately with the new Forsaken content.

For pre-order customers, there is a package “Cayde’s Exotic Hideout” included in the pre-order.

The price: The exclusive GameStop Forsaken pre-order bundle has only been spotted at GameStop US, where it is priced at $99.99. It is not yet known if this offer will also be available in GameStop locations outside the USA.

The statue “Cayde’s Last Stand” is also expected to be available separately at a price of $49.99.

Who is this edition for? This offer is aimed at passionate collectors. In addition to the complete Destiny 2 experience, you can also secure a special box and a statue of the Vanguard leader Cayde-6.

Annual Pass – Optional Annual Pass for Destiny 2

What is the Annual Pass: It is a kind of paid season or annual pass for Destiny 2. Those who want to fully enjoy Year 2 have to pay extra. Bungie promises a faster content flow for this.

With the Forsaken Annual Pass, buyers receive additional bonus rewards as well as three premium content packages.

Annual Pass buyers receive, in addition to the other contents:

Three premium content releases: The premium DLCs Black Armory, Joker’s Wildcard, and Penumbra will be released respectively in December 2018, Spring 2019, and Summer 2019 (by August 31, 2019).
More end-game challenges
New weapons, armor, and unique cosmetic rewards

This is a deck consisting of 52 cards with individual artwork and details about the 8 Barons, Spider, the Wanderer, Prince Uldren Sov, Queen Mara Sov, Cayde-6, and the hand cannon “Gjallarhorn”.

What can players expect without Forsaken?

Are you still undecided or waiting for first feedback on Forsaken? Even without the upcoming Forsaken expansion, players in the second year of Destiny 2 will have plenty to enjoy. Many Year 2 features will be available to all fans, regardless of whether they own the Forsaken expansion.

All of this is available without Forsaken:

Gear collections
In-game triumphs
Changes to weapon slots
Random rolls on weapons
Update of the mod system
Mass deletion of shaders
A new Crucible mode
Four new Crucible maps
200 additional vault slots (total now 500)
New bounties
In-game lore
Power-level advantages are active in Iron Banner and Trials of the Nine.

The seasons remain for everyone: In addition to these changes, Bungie will continue to support the seasons in Year 2, which will also be aimed at all players. During each season, all fans can therefore look forward to new seasonal rewards, new Crucible maps and modes, “Quality of Life” improvements, returning events, special activities, and much more.

Are mods allowed in Monster Hunter: World? This is what Capcom says

Irina Moritz 3. September 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

A Reddit user Tenzi92 asked out of fear of a ban from Capcom whether the use of certain mods in Monster Hunter: World is allowed. He posted the response of a Capcom employee in the forums.

What has been Capcom’s stance towards mods so far? Shortly before the release of the PC version, producer Ryuzo Tsujimoto stated that the development team has no plans to support mods for MHW.

For a long time, it was unclear whether the use of mods would lead to an account ban.

In the past, Capcom has already taken action against modders who offered paid skins from Street Fighter 5 as mods. And even in the Monster Hunter community players fear bans when using a mod that increases the FPS of Monster Hunter World on PC.

Are “Quality of Life” mods okay? The Reddit user’s inquiry was about two specific mods:

The first replaced the Xbox buttons of the controller in the UI with PS4 buttons
The second was a transmog mod and allowed changing the appearance of the armor

Tenzi92 received a response from support: The representative from Capcom replied to the inquiry as follows.

monster hunter world dragoon armor header

“Capcom does not support mods made by third parties. All official mods are released on the game’s Steam page.
You can use any mod for the game, but at your own risk.
If the chosen mod only improves the game’s graphics and provides no gameplay advantages, you should not be banned.”

Statement with a loophole: Although the response to Tenzi92 states that, for example, performance mods are harmless in themselves and should not lead to a ban, Capcom leaves a loophole open. Ultimately, it is the company itself that decides which mods provide gameplay advantages and which are harmless. Therefore, there is still no 100% guarantee.

Meanwhile, the Wobble Worm Hat from Monster Hunter: World makes its comeback in the PC version:

Why players of other games are afraid of World of Warcraft

Cortyn 3. September 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

Fans of other games fear World of Warcraft. Because once you’re caught up in the pull of Blizzard’s MMORPG again, you are considered lost.

When a new addon for World of Warcraft is released, like just now with Battle for Azeroth, many players come back to Blizzard’s MMORPG and return at least for a while.

I had an interesting conversation yesterday with a friend who has recently been especially enjoying Sea of Thieves. We also talked about my friend’s concern that WoW would now siphon players from Sea of Thieves and that Sea of Thieves has to take responsibility for that. Because the developers released a questionable patch with bugs and disliked mechanics around the same time as the release of the latest WoW addon.

The thesis was now on the table (or Discord channel): Once someone gets a whiff of WoW again, they will disdain other games for a long time.

The social pull of long-lost friendships

It’s not even about the pure gameplay mechanics like the item spiral or the long grind, where players have to invest a lot of time to receive all rewards. It’s about the fellow players.

WoW Battle for Azeroth Maghar Mount and Armor

World of Warcraft has a social pull that most other games cannot match. As long as you just play „leisurely“ and don’t make any commitments, it may be different. If you only like to quest for an hour or two in the evening or do a random dungeon, not much will happen.

This reminded me a bit of the concern about a former alcoholic who might take up the bottle again. But in essence, it’s similar with World of Warcraft, at least regarding the “risk of relapse”.

But what do you think about it? Does World of Warcraft really have this pull that can bring back old players? Or is it different for you?

More on the topic

WoW: „Die Barden-Klasse würde dem Spiel viel Charakter verleihen“

von Cortyn

If someone previously had a strong social bond in the game, the “risk” is high that they will meet former friends and acquaintances again.

More on the topic

Darum wird nie wieder ein MMORPG so toll wie World of Warcraft

von Cortyn

WoW Drunk Mage Human Draenei Soldier Yell title

All it takes is a familiar name from the past to emerge, and “the trap” snaps shut. Because then you are already in conversation, reminiscing about old times, and sooner or later you also bring up former players. It turns out that player X is also back. And suddenly, you have a small group of three former friends who can go on adventures together again.

These groups grow quickly. I am amazed at how many people I have chatted with in the last days and weeks, who were actually only long-lost memories. More and more often, I find myself teaming up with old companions to run dungeons or play another twink, reminiscing about the “good old days”.

WoW consumes time for other games

I myself notice that it is taking time away from other games I wanted to devote more attention to. Dead by Daylight lures with a new killer, Persona 5 is still waiting for me on my PS4 for a conclusion, and I can’t keep up with the current anime season either.

After nearly 15 years, World of Warcraft is certainly no longer the prettiest or best game on the market. But it is still quite good, and no new game can match the bonus that comes from old acquaintances you have known for over a decade.

Therefore, I understand “the fear of World of Warcraft.” Because it is very easy to completely lose “reliable players” to Azeroth again for several months.

But what do you think about it? Does World of Warcraft really have this pull that can bring back old players? Or is it different for you?

Fortnite will be faster with the next update – I am looking forward to it

Jürgen Horn 3. September 2018 Reading time 5 minutes

Fortnite: Battle Royale (PC, PS4, iOS, Android, Switch & Xbox One) will receive multiple features with Update 5.4 that have never been in the game before. This will significantly speed up the game and our author Jürgen is excited about it.

What’s coming in Update 5.4? The next Update 5.4 for Fortnite brings a new game mode called Getaway, a new weapon (Grappler), and a new gameplay mechanic for the endgame.

For me, these innovations are all a step in the right direction, making Fortnite a different, faster game. As long as Epic doesn’t mess up the new features…

Getaway – A Completely New Mode

What is Getaway? In the Getaway (4-player teams), the classic Battle Royale gets a serious twist. Instead of just hunting down the enemy and surviving as long as possible, you need to find one of four safes.

Inside the safe is a llama figure that you then need to bring to one of four getaway vans. If the llama carrier is taken down, someone else can pick up the loot. The team that extracts the statue first wins.

More Speed in the Game

Why is Getaway a Good Idea? As exciting as Battle Royale is as a game mode, you eventually crave more. However, most of the previous game modes were just variations of the usual genre template.

Getaway, on the other hand, is not about kills and camping. Instead, it’s about securing the statue in a fast-paced movement battle and then protecting the carrier at all costs while almost every other team on the map targets them.

This promises immense tension and a departure from the usual, more tactical gameplay in Fortnite. And for streamers, the fast-paced gameplay in the Getaway mode will surely be extremely exciting.

I’m already looking forward to thrilling rounds where top players like Ninja or Muselk blast their way through hordes of enemies and with their last strength get the llama to the getaway van.

Fairness is Mandatory

What can go wrong? The new game mode poses a particular challenge because such a concept has not been tried before. The safes need to be distributed fairly and the getaway vans should be relatively accessible.

https://youtu.be/RfANch3qvOM

Moreover, the llama team must have a chance to reach their goal even with the whole map’s attention on them. If Epic can manage all of this right from the start, the new mode will surely be a huge success.

The Grappler – Movement Over Camping

What is the Grappler? This item acts like a grappling hook. You can attach yourself to distant objects and immediately pull yourself to them. Grappling hook cannons have been present in numerous games, so it was only a matter of time until Fortnite introduced such an item.

Why is the Grappler a Good Idea? In Fortnite, you can fortify yourself in massive structures. While this is tactically interesting, it doesn’t necessarily make the game more exciting.

Especially in streams and tournaments, viewers want action and dynamism, not exhausting fortifications. The Grappler hits right there!

The Grappler allows for extremely fast movement. Furthermore, you can pull yourself up to enemy buildings with the grappling hook and easily take them over. Massive structures are thus only conditionally useful and the pace of the game increases enormously.

Moreover, the Grappler in the hands of professionals and in tournaments will likely lead to all kinds of crazy stunts. I’m already looking forward to that.

What can go wrong? Like all new weapons, the Grappler could still be quite unrefined when it arrives. Additionally, the weapon could too greatly devalue building, which would weaken this unique feature further.

The New Storm Damage – Collapsing New Buildings

What is it about? With Update 5.4, the behavior of the storm in the endgame is set to change. The final storm circle will now destroy all buildings at the edge of the zone. This should cause quite a chaos, as it is rather customary to erect ridiculous forts at the end of a round.

Why is this good? When everything around starts breaking, the tension in the final phase is cranked up to 11! Only players who are really on the ball and can react quickly in the chaos should achieve the “Epic Victory”.

This innovation should also benefit streamers and tournaments. The last phase will likely be unmatched in tension.

What can go wrong? Builders might find this innovation quite frustrating. Because until now, it was of great importance to have a solid fort at the end.

On the other hand, rapid builders are particularly sought after, constantly erecting new forts despite the storm.

Jürgen’s Conclusion on the Upcoming Patch 5.4

For me, all these new features go in the right direction. They speed up the game and make it more exciting and fun. Especially the Getaway mode should be a lot of fun if Epic gets everything right or at least quickly improves with patches.

Big innovations before Season 6: However, what makes me even happier is the fact that Epic is bringing all these innovations already now and not waiting until Season 6. It’s quite possible that in the next season, Epic will ramp things up even more and introduce further changes – like the long-demanded alternative maps.

But what do you think? Should Fortnite become a faster game, or is it just fine as it is and should not be changed further?

So stellt Fallout 76 sicher, dass dir niemand deinen Loot klaut

Benedict Grothaus 3. September 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

Bethesda’s Vice President talks about loot and inventory in Fallout 76 and has good news for players.

New info on loot and inventory: Pete Hines answered some fan questions on Twitter. He explains how the loot system in Fallout 76 will work and how you can properly manage your inventory.

Loot for everyone, bullets have weight

Some fans asked on Twitter how loot distribution in Fallout 76 will work. The answer: Everyone can loot, but it is random.

Kills count for everyone: In Fallout 76, there will be lots of monsters you can engage and shoot. Monsters will also leave loot for players to take.

In multiplayer games, the question arises as to who is entitled to take the loot. Hines’ answer is: All players who helped kill the monster. Not just the one who dealt the first damage.

All
— Pete Hines (@DCDeacon) August 30, 2018

Watch your baggage! When you are roaming through West Virginia and searching for loot, you always have to keep an eye on your inventory and the maximum weight you can carry. If you carry too much, you will be overloaded. So far, being overloaded in Fallout meant that at least sprinting is no longer possible.

In Fallout 76, ammunition will also have weight. If you want to go hunting, you should consider this when planning your inventory. Hines offers some tips for managing inventory and weight:

Use perk cards that make ammunition weigh less (or have someone with the perk in your group).
Only take ammunition for the weapons you are using.
Invest more points in strength.
Carry less stuff around.

Loot in containers is random: You will find loot not only in monsters but also in various containers throughout West Virginia. There will likely be similar containers as in previous Fallout installments, such as drawers, cupboards, and containers.

The contents of the containers, however, are not always the same. If you found an item at a specific location, another player may not find that item there as well. The loot in containers is randomly generated.

it may or may not be there for them. loot containers are randomized. everyone doesn’t find the exact same thing in the same places
— Pete Hines (@DCDeacon) August 30, 2018

All of this also means that no one can take anything from you. If you help kill a monster, you are entitled to your share of the loot. If you find special items in random containers, they belong to you. Even if you die, you leave only your “junk.”

You can get your own picture of the systems in the Fallout beta and even help improve them:

Destiny 2: Get a free PS4 theme now in honor of Cayde

Tom Rothstein 3. September 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

A free PS4 theme is now available in the PlayStation Store to honor Cayde-6 from Destiny 2. You can download and install it now.

PS4 Guardians can prepare their console just before the release of the Forsaken expansion and design it accordingly. As the PlayStation Twitter account announced on the afternoon of September 3rd, you can now download and install a free PS4 theme.

This PS4 theme, which you can use to decorate the background of the PS4 menu, is based on this official Forsaken image:

What kind of design is this? It is a dynamic theme with the somewhat awkward name “Destiny 2: Forsaken – free dynamic Cayde-6 theme”.

You can see it in action in this video:

The dead Cayde-6 lies in the arms of a Guardian. The scene takes place in the Reef. Dust particles fly from left to right across the image – that’s about the extent of the “dynamics” this theme offers. In the background, the new Forsaken music plays, which can also be heard in the main menu of Destiny 2 Forsaken.

According to PlayStation, you should pay your last respects to Cayde-6 by installing this theme on your gaming console.

How do I download the PS4 theme?

Here’s how to quickly get the theme on your PS4:

Open the settings in the PS4 menu
Scroll down to “Themes”
Press “Select Theme”
Scroll all the way down to “Find in the PlayStation Store”
The Forsaken theme should be in the fourth row of search results if you sort by “Newest first”.

You can also reach it by directly searching the PlayStation Store. If you can’t find the theme at all, just follow this link that will take you to the PlayStation Store for the Cayde-6 theme.

Is this the only Forsaken PS4 theme? If you preordered the Forsaken expansion, there is another Forsaken PS4 theme in your theme overview. However, this will only be unlocked on the evening of September 4th. It’s called “Destiny 2 Forsaken – Dynamic Theme” and shows the Hand Cannon in the preview. Therefore, it seems there will be one more theme in addition to the free Forsaken theme.

To ensure you are well-prepared for Forsaken and year 2 on September 4th, you should quickly read our overview with the most important information:

Alle Fahrzeuge in GTA 5 Online kosten so viel wie 65 neue AAA-Spiele

Patrick Freese 3. September 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

A player calculated what the vehicles and their parking spaces in GTA 5 Online cost and ended up with several thousand dollars. With that money, you can get over 60 new AAA games.

Anyone who is active in GTA 5 Online knows that such a vehicle can cost over a million GTA-dollars. Some cars are cheaper, luxury vehicles are much more expensive.

The community dealt with the question of how much money one must spend if they want to have every car and a parking space for each car in GTA 5 Online.

Grinding or money: The content in GTA 5 Online is purchased with in-game currency GTA$. You earn it through in-game businesses like drug smuggling or by buying real money. If you want to buy all the cars for real money, you should start saving.

YouTuber calculates the costs

Broughy is a well-known face among GTA players. On his YouTube channel, he regularly deals with new content, test drives new cars, and tests which are the fastest cars in GTA 5 Online.

New DLC, new prices: Broughy looked into the prices of vehicles after the release of the latest nightclub-themed DLC. He calculated how much real money players have to spend if they want to buy each of the currently 159 vehicles in the game. This only concerns the vehicles that can also be parked in a regular garage.

Recommended editorial content

At this point you will find external content from Twitter that complements the article.

I consent to external content being displayed to me. Personal data can be transmitted to third party platforms. Read more about our privacy policy.

Link to the Twitter content

Millions in-game, thousands of real dollars: Players would need to spend 363,457,689.00 GTA-dollars if they want to buy every vehicle and acquire a parking space for it. That’s equivalent to 4,540$ in real money. And that only if you would keep buying the most profitable Shark Card.

Tuning is an additional cost: Broughy only used the base prices of the vehicles for this calculation. And tuning is a fixed part of GTA 5 Online. Therefore, you would easily add a few million GTA$ for customizing the vehicles.

Broughy has made the list of all vehicles, garages, and prices publicly available in a Google document.

But would you rather have a bunch of new games? If you convert the 4,540$ into our currency, you end up with about 3,900€. Common prices for new AAA games range from 60€ to 70€. That would mean you could buy 55 to 65 new AAA games for the real money value of the 159 cars.

Oops, unfortunately this affiliate widget is no longer available.

… but who really wants to own all vehicles?

At first glance, this seems like a lot of money. But there is no real reason to buy all vehicles in GTA 5 Online. Normally, you have a handful of sports cars that match your personal taste.

Then there are utility vehicles that are armed or can fly.

Earn money yourself: If you want to buy the expensive sports cars, you don’t have to resort to real money. GTA 5 offers many ways to earn money. As a biker boss, you sell your own cocaine to customers, as a CEO, you steal vehicles, upgrade them, and sell them again. Admittedly, it takes time. But it’s not impossible.

Uldir Checklist: Are you ready for the new WoW raid?

Benedict Grothaus 3. September 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

To ensure you’re well prepared for the launch of the new raid in World of Warcraft, we have put together a preparation checklist at a glance. This is how you conquer Uldir!

On Wednesday, September 5, 2018, Uldir, the first raid of Battle for Azeroth, opens in normal and heroic mode. Raids are part of the endgame content in PvE and present players with a significant challenge.

WoW_Battle_for_Azeroth_Nazmir_03 — The entrance to Uldir is located in the eerie Nazmir.

Uldir: Everything You Need at a Glance

Raids can be confusing for newcomers or returning players due to their size, as between 10 and 30 players participate simultaneously. Even veterans sometimes forget things while preparing. With our checklist, you have all the important information for a successful raid at a glance.

What is Uldir? Uldir is an ancient facility of the Titans in the history of WoW. In Battle for Azeroth, Uldir is a raid with eight bosses that you can defeat to obtain loot:

Normal difficulty: Item level 355+
Heroic difficulty: Item level 370+
Mythic difficulty: Item level 385+ (available from September 12)
Raid Finder: Item level 340+ (available from September 12)

Here are the raid dates for Uldir in WoW: Battle for Azeroth

von Cortyn

The Right Preparation

To succeed in raids, many raid leaders require proper preparation. This ensures that you extract the most from your characters and that the raid runs as smoothly as possible without significant issues.

Get the right gear: We recommend an average item level of 335 for Uldir in normal mode. In our guide, you can learn how to gear up properly for Uldir.
Addons: The right addons make boss fights significantly easier. We primarily recommend DeadlyBossMods and WeakAuras 2 for Uldir. Be sure to check for updates right before the raid. We have also compiled a list of the 9 most important addons for BfA for you.
Stock up on potions and flasks: Potions provide you with powerful bonuses for a few seconds during the fight, while flasks boost your stats for an hour. We recommend bringing 40 of your best combat potions and 4 flasks for the first night.
Cook strength food: Boosting food or “buff food” gives you a bonus to a secondary stat after eating. Some raid leaders provide “feasts” that you can partake in. If you’re not sure if you’ll get a feast, it’s best to pack 40 units of buff food just in case.
Gems and enchants: In Uldir, you’ll get new gear with some luck. To use this gear immediately, it’s best to bring some enchant scrolls for rings and weapons, along with gems. This way, you can equip your new loot right away and replace old gear.
Runes: This applies only to truly ambitious raiders who want to get the most out of their performance. Battle-tested enhancement runes provide you with additional primary stats. However, they are quite expensive. If gold is no issue or if you really want to give it your all, also acquire some runes before the raid.

More information can be found here: This is how you prepare properly for Uldir and Mythic+.

For those of you who are proficient in English, we recommend the guides from FatbossTV instead. Fatboss has been creating guides for all new WoW raids for many years and explains in detail how the bosses are played as tank, healer, or DPS. To the playlist of Uldir guides by FatbossTV.

If you raid frequently, you should also take good care of your Heart of Azeroth: through the Heart, your Azerite gear becomes stronger.

WoW Survey: Is the grind in Battle for Azeroth too hard?

Cortyn 3. September 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

World of Warcraft has some grind elements that players have to chew on for a long time. But is it too much? We want to know with the survey!

With the release of World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth, there is plenty to do in Kul Tiras and on Zandalar. While players complete world quests, collect artifact power, or look for the best gear in dungeons, some fans experience frustration. The grind is simply too harsh and noticeable this time.

More on the topic

Viele WoW-Spieler haben den Grind unterschätzt und heulen nun rum

von Cortyn

In the official forums, on Reddit, and Twitter, there is lively discussion about whether Blizzard has gone overboard with the grind this time. Island Expeditions on repeat are practically a must for anyone looking to maximize their artifact power, and repeatedly running dungeons for the best gear is also mandatory. If you want a lot, you have to play a lot and sometimes complete lengthy, repetitive tasks.

But perhaps all of this is just a problem of the “top 0.1%” who simply want to be optimally prepared for the raid.

What do you think about the grind in Battle for Azeroth?

Whether the grind is too harsh or still too lenient has already been widely discussed in the comments. However, we still do not have a clear picture of how many of our readers are satisfied with the grind and how many are put off by it. It’s time for a survey!

If you cannot see the survey, please check if you have an ad blocker activated. It would be nice if you disable it on our site anyway.

If you want to express your opinion in more detail, please also use the comment function.

Cortyn says: Personally, I don’t find the grind too harsh. I am glad that I still have a few things to work towards in one or two weeks. However, I would appreciate it if a few paragon rewards were introduced, as all world quests on Zandalar lose their appeal once the 7th Legion is revered.

Destiny 2 fixes long waiting times but leaves PvP matchmaking broken

Sven Galitzki 3. September 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

Bungie fixes the long wait times in matchmaking that crept in with the update 2.0.0 in Destiny 2. However, the broken PvP player search remains untouched.

After the release of Patch 2.0.0 for Destiny 2, numerous Guardians report longer load times and lags in PvP. The community assumed that the broken matchmaking in Quickplay was fixed again to the annoyance of many players.

As Bungie has now confirmed again, this is not the case. The matchmaking has not been changed. However, the problem with the long wait times has been addressed.

Wait times problem fixed, SBMM still disabled

Matchmaking still broken: As the studio confirmed on Twitter, a fix for all matchmaking services has been released to counteract the long wait times in the Crucible and other activities. The Skill Based Matchmaking (SBMM) remains disabled.

Community remains divided: While many fans prefer the skill-based matchmaking, i.e. SBMM, there are also numerous Guardians who enjoy the broken matchmaking.

Because ever since a bug has crept in with the July update 1.2.3, which disabled the Skill Based Matchmaking, many players have reportedly had so much fun in the Crucible like never before. Comments and posts on various platforms are asking Bungie not to fix the broken matchmaking.

Bungie sticks to its line: When the SBMM problem first appeared in July, the studio stated that a quick fix was not to be expected. They do not want to act immediately but rather observe the development of the Quickplay list first and then develop a corresponding solution.

The developers apparently still hold to their words and keep the Skill Based Matchmaking disabled even after the latest fix. Whether the current state of the Crucible will change anytime soon remains to be seen.

Because even after the latest fix, Bungie stated they would continue to keep an eye on matchmaking. All other changes will be communicated openly to the players.

Monster Hunter World is now available for PC in a box

Leya Jankowski 3. September 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

The PC version of Monster Hunter World is now also available as a box that you can put on your shelf. The physical version comes with a DVD-ROM.

Monster Hunter World had its digital release on Steam on August 9. From now on, the action RPG about monster hunting is also available as a box in stores. So far, Monster Hunter World has sold more than 10 million copies worldwide and has become Capcom’s most successful title of all time.

What does the box version for PC contain? The box consists of a case featuring Rathalos and a group of hunters on the cover. Inside the case, there is a DVD-ROM and not just a digital code.

Monster Hunter World: Here is everything for a perfect start on PC

von Leya Jankowski

The game comes with the base version: All DLCs and collaborations released after Monster Hunter World’s launch will be made available for PC for free later. It is still unknown when exactly that will be the case.

These monsters have been released as free expansions:

Monster-Hunter-World-Sakura2 — Collaborations include special armor sets that make a hunter look like a character from another game. Here is Sakura from Street Fighter V.

The release on Steam had a rocky start due to performance issues

Shortly after the release on Steam, complaints about poor performance and connection issues in multiplayer began to mount. Thus, Monster Hunter World received only moderate reviews on Steam despite a player record.

Capcom is working on issues: Currently, the PC port is not perfect but definitely acceptable. The developers are still working on improving performance and fixing bugs. Players should expect some hiccups while playing Monster Hunter World on PC at this point.

Complaints are mostly technical: The game itself has been positively rated by PC gamers. It is mostly the technical implementation that has dragged some reviews down. However, some Steam reviews now say that it is not as dramatic as it was right at launch.

How Pokémon GO won the summer of 2018 – Great Revival

Schuhmann 3. September 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

The mobile game Pokémon GO is one of the big winners of the gaming summer 2018. Revenues have skyrocketed, and the search interest has also significantly increased. What is the reason for this?

The Poké Renaissance: Since June 2018, the game Pokémon GO has been experiencing a renaissance. It was a huge hit in the summer of 2016 and never really died down, but this summer Pokémon GO has seen an unprecedented surge.

2.5 million dollars daily since June 2018

In June, the turning point came: As reported by Sensor Tower, players have been spending an average of 2.5 million US dollars every day since June 19. This is 39% more than in the two months before.

We can also see this increase from June clearly in the search interest on Google 2018 in Germany:

There was already a first upswing in April. However, Pokémon GO really picked up momentum with the patch in mid-June. The peak of search interest for Pokémon GO in Germany was reached in July.

Even throughout August, interest remained high during the heatwave.

Trainers are forming groups: The Facebook group by Mein-MMO reflects this surge in Pokémon GO. From May onwards, the group’s member count significantly increased.

Apparently, interest in Pokémon GO and exchanging with others increased among trainers starting in June.

Raid spike in 2017 was short-lived for Pokémon GO

Interestingly: There was already a similar surge in popularity in the summer of 2017. This came with the new raid system. This new feature temporarily caused a significant upswing in the summer.

However, this enthusiasm quickly faded at that time. In 2018, the increase seems to be more sustainable.

How did Pokémon GO achieve this renaissance?

More social features: Observers attribute the upswing in 2018 primarily to two new game systems in Pokémon GO:

the friends system
and the trading system

Through these two social functions, Pokémon GO may have gained increased engagement. Playing in groups with friends increases the motivation to continue. Players compete with each other and communicate.

More on the topic

Pokémon GO: This is how trading and friend levels work

von Patrick Freese

An important event was also the activation of lucky Pokémon. Trainers can now receive lucky Pokémon through the new trading system. These monsters require less stardust for power-ups – hence they are cheaper to evolve into stronger attackers. Thus, Niantic made the trading function in Pokémon GO more popular.

Niantic relies on social interaction for the upswing

2018 looks promising: The question arises whether the hype around Pokémon GO will last until autumn this time. As temperatures fall, interest in Pokémon GO has also declined in previous years. Naturally, as the game drives trainers outside.

With the mysterious “ultra bonus” and the upcoming generation 4 the next weeks could be promising for Pokémon GO.

Additionally, Niantic itself knows what is behind the new success of their game. Therefore, they want to expand and refine the “social aspects” of Pokémon Go. PvP is expected to come to the game still in 2018:

WoW: Check out the new Mag’har heritage armor here

Benedict Grothaus 3. September 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

After the first players could only unlock one armor set for the Mag’har in World of Warcraft, Blizzard has now also implemented the remaining armors.

New Heritage Armors for Mag’har: The new allied race of Mag’har Orcs in Battle for Azeroth has received two additional heritage armors. This gives the race a total of three cosmetic sets for reaching the maximum level.

Heritage Sets of the Orc Clans

The heritage sets of the allied races are intended to visually reflect their heritage. For the Mag’har, the armors are available in the colors of various clans.

What new sets are available? The new sets come in the three colors of different Orc clans from Draenor: Frostwolf Clan, Warsong Clan, and Blackrock Clan. All sets share the same model, only the colors differ.

The heritage armor of the Blackrock Clan:

The heritage armor of the Frostwolf Clan:

The heritage armor of the Warsong Clan:

How do I unlock the sets? Heritage armors are a reward for the perseverance of players and characters. You receive them when you have played an allied race to level 120 without a boost or race change.

However, you may utilize aids such as Heirlooms or elixirs that provide an experience bonus. Allied races also always start at level 20, allowing you to skip the initial stages.

How do I unlock the Mag’har? To unlock the Mag’har Orcs, you must fulfill three conditions:

Horde character at level 120
completed Horde War Campaign (Achievement: “Ready for War”)
Exalted with the Oathkeeper

After you have met the requirements, you must complete a scenario in which you bring the Mag’har Orcs from Draenor to Azeroth. Afterwards, they will be available to you as an allied race.

WoW Heritage Zandalari Maghar Dark Iron Kul Tiran — Allied races – a major feature in Battle for Azeroth.

Here’s why the Mag’har are special: The Mag’har Orcs are Orcs from Draenor who still live in the traditional clans of the Orcs. With the heritage armors, you can give your Mag’har more depth and connect them to the story of a clan.

Mag’har Orcs can also become priests: Check out the classes of the Mag’har here.

The Mag’har Orcs were expected to receive three armors right from the start. However, after reaching level 120, the first players reported that they only had one armor to choose from. Blizzard has now also implemented the remaining armors.

Have you already leveled up the allied races of the Horde? Then continue with the Alliance!

Fortnite: Fans pay over 400 dollars for the PAX West spray logo

Jürgen Horn 3. September 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

For Fortnite: Battle Royale (PC, PS4, iOS, Android, Switch & Xbox One) there was an exclusive spray logo at the PAX West convention. This item is extremely sought after and fetches top prices online at auction houses.

What does the new spray logo from PAX West look like? At the recently concluded gaming convention PAX West in Seattle (USA), Fortnite developer Epic once again distributed unique spray logos for the colorful battle royale game. The PAX West logo features the famous Fortnite llama. In the PAX West spray paint, it carries a controller in its mouth and is adorned with additional gaming peripherals.

As before at E3 and Gamescom 2019, such spray paints are extremely coveted by players. Only a few Fortnite fans get the chance to grab the spray logos on-site at the respective conventions. Unfortunately, there are no other official ways to obtain the item. Most likely, the respective logos will therefore be unique to the convention of a particular year. Those who don’t get one will likely miss out forever.

Thus, the spray logo market flourishes online every time a convention ends.

Skyrocketing prices for digital spray paint

What are the offers for the PAX West spray paint? As soon as PAX West was over, some absurd offers for the convention’s spray logo piled up. The first offers were relatively harmless, starting at 50 to 60 US dollars per logo.

Prices explode: But soon the offers exploded, and 150 dollars or more for the spray paint were not uncommon. One of the spray logos was reportedly sold in a bundle with the sprays from this year’s E3 and Gamescom 2018 for as much as 450 US dollars.

Codes for spray paints from conventions and events are not the only things currently worth a lot of money in Fortnite. Accounts with rare skins from Season 1 and such are also worth a fortune, as you can read in this article:

Destiny 2: 6 Things You Should Know Before Starting Forsaken

Micha Deckert 3. September 2018 Reading time 6 minutes

The release of the first major expansion for Destiny 2 is set for September 4. But what highlights can you expect from Forsaken? Here is our overview.

At the launch of the first major expansion for Destiny 2, we want to provide you with a summary of what you can expect from the addon Forsaken. What’s included, what changes to Destiny 2 are there, and how does the story unfold? You can read about the highlights of Forsaken here.

[toc]

The story of Forsaken takes you back to the Reef

Veterans of Destiny 1 will likely recognize the Reef as a location. The expansion Forsaken brings us back to the realm of the Awoken, where this time we can explore the area Tangled Shore.

The story initially leads us alongside Cayde-6 on a mission, during which the Vanguard Hunter must sacrifice his life. Our Guardians now embark on a revenge quest in Wild West style to eliminate those responsible for Cayde’s death.

On our hit list is not only the Prince of the Awoken, Uldren Sov himself, but also his allies, the eight Barons. New enemies include the Scorn, Fallen who have died repeatedly and been resurrected.

Alongside Uldren, Petra Venj – an Awoken from Destiny 1 – will also return. Whether other familiar faces from the Reef will appear remains unknown.

New PvEvP mode Gambit

Forsaken brings a new mode to Destiny 2, which can best be described as PvEvP. Gambit is a mix of PvE battles against AI enemies and PvP battles against other Guardians.

In this mode, two teams of four players compete on different maps. The two teams are teleported to their own areas, where they fight against various AI enemies. The enemies drop particles known as Motes, which must be collected and stored in a bank. Players can carry up to 15 Motes, which will be lost upon death.

Depending on how many Motes the team collects, powerful AI enemies (Blockers) will be released at the human opponents, and their bank will be locked. Additionally, a portal can be opened to the opposing area with a certain number of Motes, allowing a player to enter for a limited time and fight the enemy players as in PvP.

A match consists of three rounds, and a round ends when the final boss, the Primeval, is defeated. But beware: While fighting the final boss, the portal to the other side remains open.

Raid “Last Wish” in the Dreaming City

The Dreaming City will be the endgame location for Forsaken. It will also host the raid “Last Wish,” which Guardians can start on September 14 at 7 PM. According to data miners, the minimum level for the new raid will be Power Level 520.

What players can expect in the raid is still unknown. According to the developers, the boss is said to be female and beautiful. You can find the latest updates on Forsaken and the upcoming raid at MeinMMO and our Destiny 2 Facebook page.

Besides the raid, the Dreaming City will also offer content for solo players. The area is described as a mix of the Dreadnaught and the Vault of Glass from Destiny 1, combined with a dash of Peter Jackson’s “The Lord of the Rings” films.

Players are expected to have plenty to do outside the raid, such as completing public events or uncovering secrets. The location is said to be filled with numerous puzzles, and there will also be challenges and bounties.

With Forsaken, Destiny 2 moves closer to its predecessor

Already with Patch 2.0.0, the pre-patch for Forsaken, the weapon slots in Destiny 2 were changed. Some weapons are no longer tied to their respective weapon slots, their availability is now determined by the required ammo. This aims to bring Forsaken a bit closer to the familiar weapon schema from Destiny 1.

However, the expansion also brings back several other features from the first game. Many players have requested that weapons now have random rolls again. Popular weapons from Year 1 of Destiny 2 will also receive random rolls. Additionally, armor will now also come with random perks.

Additionally, lore, triumphs, and collections will return. However, these features are meant to be more convenient than they were in Destiny 1. Players will be able to access lore and triumphs from their menu.

The collections, which are modeled after the kiosk from Destiny 1, will also be found in the Guardians’ menu. The collections include all the weapons, armor pieces, ghosts, ships, sparrows, emblems, and shaders that were available in the first year of Destiny 2. According to Bungie, all items will be saved that the Guardians have received since the DLC Warmind.

The saved items can be drawn from the Guardians’ collections again and again, provided they have the necessary resources.

9 new subclass paths and new supers

Forsaken will bring more variety to all Guardian classes, as Hunters, Warlocks, and Titans will each gain three new paths for their subclasses. So the expansion provides a total of nine new supers.

The new supers for Hunters:

With the Solar super Blade Barrage, Hunters will be able to throw knives multiple times while in the air
With the Void super Spectral Blades, Hunters become invisible and can then reappear behind enemies with deadly daggers
With the Arc super Whirlwind Guard, Hunters will also use their staff for defense and even reflect projectiles

The new supers for Warlocks:

The super Well of Radiance allows the Solar Warlock to slam his Dawnblade into the ground to activate a large-area aura that heals and strengthens allies quickly
The super Nova Warp enables the Void Warlock to teleport multiple times over short distances and then erupt in a Void energy explosion
With the super Chaos Reach, Arc Warlocks can shoot a wide-ranging beam of energy that deals massive damage

The new supers for Titans:

The Solar super Burning Maul creates a flaming two-handed hammer. The hammer can be swung around or slammed into the ground to create a fiery tornado with short range
The Void super Banner Shield creates a large, mobile barrier that blocks enemy projectiles while allowing allied fire to pass through
With the Arc super Thundercrash, the Arc Titan launches into the air and can dive into a group of enemies from a distance, causing massive damage in a large area

New weapons and armor and a completely new weapon type

Of course, the expansion Destiny 2 will refresh with new gear, from which you can even acquire a few items before the launch of Forsaken.

The exotic weapons are tailored to the requirements of the addon and deal bonus damage to Taken enemies or Gambit invaders, like the hand cannon Service Revolver. With the Cerberus+ 1, we have already speculated whether it is the best auto rifle of all time.

The upcoming exotic armors are thematically aligned with Forsaken as well. For example, they enhance the handling of the new super paths or provide benefits with the new weapon type in the expansion –the bow.

With Forsaken, not only Nightstalker Hunters will be able to use bows. With the launch of the expansion, a completely new weapon type will return to the game for the first time in years. The exotic bows already known include the Wish-Ender, which marks enemies through walls while drawn, and the Trinity Ghoul, a primary weapon in the energy slot that deals Arc elemental damage.

Fortnite: Challenges of Week 9 Known – Swing the Dance

Jürgen Horn 3. September 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

In Fortnite, the suspected challenges for week 9 are now known. Dataminers have found hints that reveal all tasks, unless Epic intervenes again.

Datamining leak shows all challenges: The tasks for week 9 have been found by dataminers. Apparently, these should be rather simple jobs in the penultimate week of Season 5.

However, as always, these details are based on datamining and are therefore not necessarily accurate.

Update: The specific challenges for week 9 in Season 5 are now here. Among other things, you no longer have to dance, but find stone heads.

von Jürgen Horn

The free challenges without Battle Pass in Season 5, week 9

Deal damage to opponents with explosive weapons (500): If you haven’t completed the task from week 7 (Disturb opponent buildings with explosive charges), you can now complete these two challenges together and blow up buildings along with their inhabitants. 500 damage should not be a problem.

Use an ATV (1): If this task remains, it is a home game. There are plenty of golf carts, so check our guide to the spawn points and grab the task.

Follow the treasure map at Shifty Shafts (1): This task should not be a problem. We will provide a detailed guide on this as usual on Thursday.

https://twitter.com/Fortnite_Leak/status/1036078833462599680

For these 4 tasks in week 9, you need the Battle Pass

Search chests at Pleasant Park (7): There are plenty of chests here, especially in the large houses. Ideally, you farm the chests in the 50vs50 mode when they are a bit further from the front. This way you can quickly reach the 7 chests for the task.

Dance with another player at Loot Lake: This task could still change. Just dancing seems rather cheap. Who knows what the developers will come up with next.

Eliminate opponents with assault rifles (5): Assault rifles are still good weapons. Even the worst noobs should eventually manage 5 kills.

Eliminate opponents at Tomato Temple (3): Finally, you have a reason to take a closer look at the new Tomato Temple. Because you need to get 3 kills there. Praise the tomato!

More info will be available on Thursday

Warning, tasks may still change: Most tasks from the week 9 leak appear coherent and clear. Only the challenge with dancing at Loot Lake could be a fake. Or there may be further instructions on where exactly and how often you need to dance with whom.

We will provide you with a detailed guide to this task and the remaining challenges as soon as possible on Thursday.

Destiny 2 will fix the biggest Gambit issue at launch

Sven Galitzki 3. September 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

Early leaving of Gambit games will be penalized starting from the launch of the Forsaken expansion for Destiny 2. Additionally, the “Join-in-Progress” feature will be activated at that time.

Last weekend, numerous fans were able to get a firsthand look at the new PvEvP mode Gambit. During this, a significant weakness was revealed, which Bungie will address with the Forsaken release on September 4.

Join-in-Progress and penalties for early leaving of Gambit matches

During the Gambit demo, a significant weakness emerged that was vigorously criticized by the community.

Too many quitters in random teams: If a Gambit match did not develop according to the expectations of some teammates, it often happened that one or more Guardians left the previous team – and this could occur at the start or during a match.

The problem: Since every single team member in the new Gambit mode is important and must contribute, an imbalance is immediately noticeable and weighs heavily. Moreover, it was not possible during the demo to fill the team in an imbalanced situation with other players during an ongoing game. The match was essentially over for the previous team as soon as someone left the game intentionally or due to a disconnect.

The solution: Now, Gambit lead Robbie Stevens announced on Twitter that they intend to address this issue at the launch of Forsaken. They are aware that balance suffers under this problem.

Therefore, players who leave the match early will be penalized starting from September 4. The “Join-in-Progress” mechanic, which was not active during the demo, will also come into play then.

What does this mean for the players? The imbalance problem is to be minimized with these measures. Players who have disconnected will have the chance to rejoin their team – even during an ongoing match. If that doesn’t work, the team will be supplemented through matchmaking with other Guardians who are in the player search.

Although Stevens did not go into detail on how the penalties for early leaving a Gambit match will look, potential measures could include a temporary exclusion from the activity or a downgrade in the infamy rank. However, it remains to be seen whether the severity of the penalties can actually deter players from leaving matches they believe are lost early.

By the way: Players who have left an ongoing game due to a disconnect should not worry. A penalty is unlikely in this case. Bungie has already emphasized in a previous statement that their in-house analysis tools provide a good overview, among other things, of whether someone left a match due to network errors or intentionally.

Black Desert: Player challenges CEOs to fight – regarding Pay2Win

Jürgen Horn 3. September 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

Black Desert Online is facing accusations of being Pay2Win again. As a result, the game is being mocked with memes, and a user has even started a petition to challenge the game’s bosses to a fight.

Black Desert and Pay2Win – Here’s what happened: The Korean sandbox MMORPG Black Desert Online has repeatedly struggled with accusations of being Pay2Win. The latest trigger is two items that facilitate the upgrading of equipment.

If you want to upgrade an item in Black Desert, it may fail, and the item could become worse. However, you receive a bonus that gives you a better chance of success next time.

So far, so good, but you can increase your chances with real-money items while also protecting your items from degradation.

Petition Fight After School on the Playground

Petition challenges Black Desert bosses: Many players believe that real-money items that provide a significant advantage in upgrading items are clearly Pay2Win. This has upset some fans so much that they are now mocking the game.

One player even went so far as to start a petition on Change.org. The topic: “I challenge the bosses of Black Desert to a fistfight after school.”.

Memes and Mockery for Black Desert: The petition, which is obviously not serious, is just one outcome of the recent Pay2Win debate. Additionally, numerous memes are flooding the internet, mocking Black Desert Online. An example is embedded here.

Anger Over Cron Stones and Valk’s Cry

What exactly is behind the Pay2Win accusations? The whole issue started with the existence of real-money items that improve your chances when upgrading:

Cron Stones: These items prevent your equipment from downgrading if an upgrade attempt fails. You can find these stones in events and buy them for 1 million silver each. However, you can also get the stones by dismantling real-money costumes.
Valk’s Cry: This item increases the chance of a successful upgrade attempt by 10. This item can be obtained in small quantities for loyalty points earned by logging in. But again, you can get a large number of this item if you dismantle real-money costumes.

Since the costumes can also be traded for in-game currency in the auction house, prices are currently very high, and those who just want to buy clothes are left empty-handed.

More information about the outrage surrounding the Pay2Win accusations in Black Desert Online can be found in the following article.

Map for Scum: This loot map for the game shows where there is big loot

Andreas Bertits 3. September 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

The online shooter SCUM relies not only on combat but also on finding loot. Here, a map helps with navigation. We show you on a loot map where to find the best weapons and equipment parts in the game.

Are you already playing the early access of the new online shooter SCUM? Then you must be on the lookout for loot in the huge game world. Because loot is extremely important in the game – among other things, because you need to feed yourself.

These places have the best weapons and equipment parts

Important locations in the game world: The game area in SCUM is 144 km² large. Here, you will search for useful items that you can find at certain locations.

Player Suspectlive has created a map where you can find these locations. It’s best to keep the loot map open next to the game for orientation.

The color codes of the loot map in SCUM

Bunkers: Bunkers are marked in yellow on the map. It is especially worthwhile to visit and explore them. Because you can find a lot of loot here. Including:

Weapons
Ammunition
Armor
Tactical clothing
MREs

But be aware that the bunkers are guarded. Usually, you will have to try to get past two mechs. In addition, zombies lurk here. Therefore, you should proceed strategically and consider sneaking instead.

von Schuhmann

Police stations: The police stations, marked in blue on the map, offer you many weapons. Stations outside of cities are guarded by mechs. Inside cities, you have to deal with zombies.

Hunting Camps: Marked in green on the map, the hunting camps provide you with ammunition and often weapons as well. However, the camps are difficult to reach and are also guarded by zombies.

Outposts: The outposts that you can see in pink on the map offer you little loot. However, they are usually not guarded.

Important places: Marked individually on the map, you will also find various locations such as the factory or the prison. Other players often gather here, leading to intense PvP battles. In addition, you will face zombies and mechs but will always find interesting loot.

With this map, you will find weapons, food, and water in SCUM

Weapon locations: On this map, you can discover weapons at the red points. The green points represent the previously mentioned bunkers. At the marked places, however, you will encounter many other players who want to get the firearms as well.

Food sources: The map below shows you where to find something to eat based on the yellow points. This can be bushes with berries but also wild animals that you need to hunt for meat.

Water sources: You also need water to survive. At the edge of the map, you can easily identify some lakes with fresh water that are light blue. In section C2, you will discover a larger water source next to a city. However, its central location makes this place interesting for many players, so you should be cautious.
