ESO: Summerset – Patch 4.0.7 is almost here – Patch Notes

Andreas Bertits 29. May 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

The Summerset addon for the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online is receiving a patch today. This requires server maintenance. The ESO server is currently “down.”

A new patch is here

When are the servers down? The servers were taken offline at 10 AM to apply the update. This is only maintenance for the PC version of the MMORPG.

The duration of the maintenance is unknown. The maintenance should be finished as soon as possible, as the patch notes have already been published.

What does the patch bring? Zenimax Online has released the extensive patch notes for update 4.0.7.

Exploration and Items

General
A problem was fixed that allowed the Artaeum pickled fish to cause you to receive double the amount of fish under certain circumstances. The desired effect is that the dish increases your chance of catching rare fish, similar to what happens when you fish with others.

Jewelry Crafting
The jewelry crafting station from Faustina Curio (the achievement merchant) is now marked as legendary and no longer epic. Additionally, it will no longer be bound on acquire and you will be warned that you must own “Summerset” to use it.

Crafting and Economy

General
A problem was fixed that prevented you from completing the tutorial if you killed the Yaghraal dream at a certain location and did not take your loot.

Quests and Areas

Quests
A pearl of great value: Razum-dar is now much easier to find in Rellenthil.
The Crystal Tower: A problem was fixed that prevented you from using a synergy in the first phase of the fight against the boss after you had used it.

The Queen’s Decree:
Your quest progress will no longer be blocked if you do not wait for the scene between Raz and Valsirenn after leaving the house of the clan matriarch.
Your quest progress will no longer be blocked if you defeated all Yaghra before Val reached the Rift Pearl in the crypt.

Item Fixes and Improvements

Consumables
A problem was fixed that caused slowing or immobilizing poisons to ignore abilities that grant immunity to these effects.
A problem was fixed that caused poisons to trigger while you were repairing castle walls or siege weapons, resulting in those attempts failing.
A problem was fixed that allowed poisons to trigger when you used “Hasty Maneuver” or any of the changes, forcing you to dismount.

Alliance War and PvP

battlegrounds
A problem was fixed that prevented you from receiving the group search reward for battlegrounds even if you reached first or second place.

Audio

A problem was fixed that caused a disturbing “pinging” sound during combat. This was never intended, and we apologize for your ears.

User Interface

Gamepad Mode
A problem was fixed that caused no attribute icons to display when selling to a vendor.

Guilds
A problem was fixed that sometimes caused the guild merchant hired by a guild not to appear in the guild menu.

Crown Store and Crown Crate

A problem was fixed that caused Pacrooti to hold black cards when you tried to open a Crown Ouroboros crate.

Art and Animations

Characters
A gap between the knee and boot of heavy armor in the style of the Order of the Hour was fixed.

Miscellaneous

Various causes of crashes and disconnections have been fixed.

What are the first impressions of Summerset? We are currently looking at the addon and have also shared our first impressions. In summary, it can be said that Summerset is a solid addon that offers more of the same.

The fans of The Elder Scrolls Online have so far been very satisfied with the Summerset addon.

Battlefield V: Here are 7 of the most important and coolest gameplay innovations

Sven Galitzki 29. May 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

More official details about the movement system, grenades, and the destructible environment of the latest installment of the series, Battlefield V, are available. We present to you seven of the most important gameplay innovations known so far.

The reveal trailer for Battlefield V was filled with details about numerous new gameplay features. Some were easy to recognize, while others had to be searched frame by frame, and some were only revealed through official Twitter announcements from Battlefield 5. We show you seven of the coolest innovations waiting for you in Battlefield 5.

High-caliber projectiles can penetrate walls: High-caliber weapons, such as the German MG-42 or vehicle armaments, can easily penetrate house walls or other cover and hit soldiers hiding behind them.

Weapons with smaller calibers, like pistols, cannot do this. Armor-piercing rounds tear up the ground upon impact, sending chunks flying through the air.

https://twitter.com/Battlefield/status/1000436461999538177

Grenades can be shot mid-air: In Battlefield 5, you will spawn with fewer grenades, but you will be able to do more with them. You can now shoot them mid-air. You can also throw them back if one lands in your immediate vicinity.

https://twitter.com/Battlefield/status/1000768644576497664

Explosion shockwaves have a direct impact on soldiers: The new shockwave effects in Battlefield 5 can catch your soldiers, toss them around, and even injure them fatally.

If a high-caliber projectile or a rocket hits a wall, it will be destroyed. The shockwave will toss soldiers standing behind it into the air. This effect and physically calculated debris can cause injuries or even death for the soldier, depending on their position within the kill area of the explosion radius.

Tanks can crush walls: Heavy military equipment will be able to crush certain house walls and drive in or through the respective building. This opens up new tactical possibilities for combat in urban terrain – especially when your own troops are inside the house, making the onboard weapons unusable.

Calling for help actively: If you are hit in combat, you can reach out your hand to call for help. Now, any friendly soldier can provide assistance. However, medics will heal you faster. Also, only they can bring your health back up to 100%. Healing now takes longer, and you have to lean over the injured comrade to do so.

Rescue and recover in combat: In Battlefield 5, it will be possible to drag injured comrades to cover by their feet, shoulders, or legs and tend to them there.

New movement system: DICE has reportedly worked on this feature for a long time. Accordingly, they are now proud of the new movement system.

Players will be much more agile with it. It will be possible to jump through closed glass windows and acrobatically escape from buildings in emergencies.

https://twitter.com/Battlefield/status/1000209974419537920

Furthermore, soldiers will also be able to sprint while crouching or shoot while crawling backward. It will also be possible to fire while lying on the side or back.

Soldiers can also throw themselves sideways or roll. When running through water, they will raise their weapons, and in mud, your character might even slip.

Early Access von Rend wird das komplette Survival-MMO umfassen

Andreas Bertits 29. May 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

The alpha of the online game Rend is currently taking place. According to the developers, the title is on a good path towards the early access phase, which is supposed to showcase the complete survival game.

From Alpha to Early Access

What is the difference between Alpha and Early Access? This difference is defined differently by each development studio. Frostkeep sees the alpha as a phase of the game in which all features are gradually introduced. The early access version is supposed to showcase the complete game, which is not yet free of bugs and still requires balancing.

The plan for Rend 2018

This is how the alpha will be expanded. Until the start of the early access phase later this year, Frostkeep Studios will continuously make improvements to Rend and introduce new features. These include:

Improved PvP
“Reckoning” system, where once a week the shields around player bases drop and large attacks begin
Taming
Better crafting
Talents and perks to enhance your hero
Social system with faction reputation
New biomes and game areas
Improved UI

New invitations to the alpha are coming. You can sign up for the alpha on the official website of Rend. With a bit of luck, you’ll receive an invitation and will soon be selected when the developers send out new invitations – which is expected to happen next week.

Rend: Early Access release still in 2018

When does the early access phase start? Currently, there is no release date for the early access phase yet. However, it is expected to happen still in 2018, and the developers state that they are on a good path.

Rend aims to usher in an evolution in the survival MMORPG genre.

Fortnite: When is the update 4.3 coming and what does it contain? New information

Schuhmann 29. May 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

Today, a patch is expected for Fortnite. The new Fortnite update 4.3 is set to bring shopping carts and some improvements for the “Save the World” mode. But will it be today? Will the Fortnite servers go offline?

Normally, an update comes today, on May 29, right? Usually, there is an update every Tuesday in Season 4. It has been like that every week. However, there has been no announcement for a patch this time. Nevertheless, it seems likely that an update is coming today. They announced in the game, what is happening next: shopping carts are coming to Fortnite.

Fortnite patch likely not until Thursday

Update: As of now, it is no longer expected that an update for Fortnite will come today. There seem to be issues with the challenges and Epic has not commented all day. Epic has now reported that the new challenges will not be active until Thursday at 10 AM. So, we can likely expect the patch only on Thursday!

Update May 30, 9:30 AM: The patch is indeed coming on Wednesday. You can read all about it in this article:

Fortnite: Servers down for maintenance – Update 4.3 comes today

von Robert Albrecht

Is there server downtime for Fortnite today?

Will the servers go offline? Currently, there are no statements from Epic regarding whether a patch will come and if the servers will go offline. We will update this article as soon as we know more. If there is server downtime, it should start around 10:00 AM our time – it usually would have been announced by now. It looks like the servers will remain online today.

New challenges are likely coming: What will happen at 10:00 AM is that the new challenges for Week 5 of Season 4 will go live. A leak has already revealed what players can expect.

Update: The challenges will not be available until Thursday, as we now know.

Fortnite: New challenges for week 5 of Season 4 still offline

von Jürgen Horn

When will the new Fortnite update arrive?

When will patch 4.3 be available for Fortnite? If downtime is avoided, the patch will likely activate from 2 PM. However, some suspect now that the patch could be postponed due to the holiday in the USA yesterday (Memorial Day). Epic stated that the “Returning Skins” on June 1 will be active in the game again – perhaps the update will only come later this week.

Update: It is now believed that the patch will not come until Thursday.

What is likely included in the Fortnite patch

What is included in the patch for Fortnite Battle Royale? The highlight is certainly “shopping carts,” which were announced in-game by Epic. Shopping carts were already found in a data mining leak from February. The shopping carts are likely vehicles. Whether you will be able to steer them yourself or if they will follow certain paths is still unknown.

What’s coming this week for Fortnite “Save the World?” For the PvE mode “Save the World,” the following will arrive this week:

A new assault rifle
Part two of the Blockbuster event
The Port-a-Fort item
More gold when increasing the difficulty of a mission
More legendary flux in the shop
Voice chat for PC

Fortnite: New challenges for week 5 of Season 4 still offline

Jürgen Horn 29. May 2018 Reading time 4 minutes

In Fortnite: Battle Royale (PC, PS4, iOS & Xbox One) die Herausforderungen für Woche 5 von Season 4 sind bereits bekannt. Erfahrt hier die Challenges aus dem aktuellen Leak.

Update 3 am 31.5.: Die Herausforderungen sind am Donnerstag live gegangen. Es sind andere als die geleakten. Hier beschreiben wir sie und wie Ihr sie lösen könnt:

Update 2: Epic hat sich zu dem Problem mit den fehlenden Challenges gemeldet. Die neuen Herausforderungen werden erst am Donnerstag, den 31. Mai erscheinen. Das sei beabsichtigt, da man künftig die Challenges wieder jeden Donnerstag erneuern will, nicht mehr schon am Dienstag.

Update1: Die Herausforderungen der 5. Woche sollten heute, am 29. Mai, verfügbar sein. Sind sie aber nicht. Um 11:00 Uhr steht nach wie vor im Spiel, dass die neuen Herausforderungen in 0 Sekunden erscheinen würden. Bislang ist jedoch nichts im zugehörigen Menü zu sehen. Bis Epic das Problem löst, müsst ihr euch also noch gedulden.

Es scheint heute keine Downtime und kein Update 4.3 zu geben. Das Update mit den Einkaufswägen kommt womöglich erst Ende der Woche. Sobald wir Näheres wissen, erfahrt ihr es hier!

Originalmeldung: Diese Woche gibt es wieder neue Challenges für das Battle-Royale-Spiel Fortnite. Damit könnt ihr schnell und motivierend zusätzliche Stufen im Battle Pass freispielen und so die begehrten Skins und Emotes bekommen.

Die neuen Challenges der Woche kommen für gewöhnlich immer am Dienstag. Für die Herausforderungen von Woche 5 von Season 4 wäre das dann der 29. Mai 2018. Aufgrund eines Leaks und eifrigen Dataminern wissen wir aber jetzt schon, was voraussichtlich an Challenges auf euch zukommt.

Season 4, Week 5 – So lauten die 7 Challenges!

Sollte der Leak zutreffen, dann gibt’s die folgenden Herausforderungen zu erledigen:

Füge Gegnern Schaden mit Maschinenpistolen zu (500)
Durchsuche Truhen in Dusty Divot (7)
Benutzt ein Jetpack (1)
Suche Gravitations-Steine (7)

Fortnite-week5-challenge — Quelle: FortniteIntel

Jede dieser Herausforderungen ist 5 Sterne im Battlepass wert.

Die schweren Herausforderungen der 5. Woche

Das sind voraussichtlich die schweren Herausforderungen in der 5. Woche: Sie geben jeweils 10 Battlepass-Sterne und damit je eine sofortige Stufe.

Folge der Schatzkarte aus Greasy Grove (1)
Eliminiere 3 Gegner mit einer Minigun oder einem leichten Maschinengewehr (3)
Eliminiere Gegner bei Lucky Landing (3)

Was ist der Gesamtertrag? Insgesamt könnt ihr wieder 5 komplette Battle-Pass-Stufen absahnen, wenn ihr alle Herausforderungen abschließt. Außerdem qualifiziert ihr euch dann für ein weiteres Titelbild der Blockbuster-Challenge, in dem ein Hinweis auf einen weiteren Bonus-Battle-Star steckt. Dazu müsst ihr aber alle vorherigen Challenges komplett abgeschlossen haben.

So erledigt ihr die neuen Herausforderungen aus Woche 5

Sollte der Leak zutreffen, geht ihr am besten wie folgt vor:

Die Truhen in Dusty Divot holt ihr euch idealerweise, solange ein Spielmodus mit verbesserter Loot-Chance verfügbar ist. Dann spawnen garantiert all möglichen Truhen und ihr könnt sie schnell durchsuchen.
Schaden mit SMGs gelingt euch leicht, wenn ihr in engen Regionen, wie Tilted Towers, Lucky Landing oder Shifty Shafts, abspringt. Auf kurze Distanz könnt ihr mit den Maschinenpistolen gut abräumen.
Ein Jetpack solltet ihr irgendwann mal von alleine finden. Spätestens, wenn der Jetpack-Modus widerkommen sollte, dürfte diese Challenge sich von allein erledigen.
Was es mit den Gravitations-Steinen auf sich hat, ist noch nicht klar. Es sind höchstwahrscheinlich neue Items und nicht die bekannten Hop-Rocks. Sobald mehr bekannt ist, werden wir das hier weiter erläutern.
Gerade das leichte Maschinengewehr ist eine tödliche Waffe. Damit Kills zu erzielen, sollte also nicht so schwer sein.
Die Kills bei Lucky Landing sind ebenfalls schnell erledigt, wenn ihr dafür sorgt, früh dort zu landen und euch optimal auszustatten. Da der Ort recht verwinkelt ist, könnt ihr dort optimal mit der SMG auf die Pirsch gehen und so gleich zwei Challenges abschließen.
Zum Schatz aus Greasy Grove werden wir später noch einen ausführlichen Guide in einem eigenen Artikel bringen.

Bedenkt aber, dass die Leaks erst einmal nur Gerüchte und womöglich nicht ganz korrekt sind. Womöglich ändern sich noch dass ein oder andere Detail bis zum Start am 29.5.2018.

Wenn ihr den Battle Pass von Season 4 optimal durchrocken wollt, dann lest unsere Mein-MMO-Battle-Pass-Guide für Fortnite!

Black Desert increases AH prices in Korea by 50%: It’s about top items

Andreas Bertits 29. May 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

There is a new price increase of the items in the auction house of the Korean version of the MMORPG Black Desert. In particular, the boss equipment and the top items are affected.

The prices are rising – but so far only in Korea

A price increase of about 50 percent. After a patch, Black Desert players in Korea have noticed that especially the prices of the best equipment and the boss items have increased by about 50 percent compared to the EU/US version. You can see examples in the picture below. Prices in Korea are now much higher than those in North America and Europe.

Black Desert – the different auction house: In Black Desert, the auction house has fixed prices set by the developer. However, prices can fluctuate within a certain range, but only up to a certain maximum price (as seen above). Such price increases significantly raise the overall level. In auction houses in WoW, for example, the prices are completely free – the developer has nothing to do with it.

Effects on EU/US version still unclear. Whether this price increase will also transfer to the EU or US version of Black Desert is currently unclear. For now, it is a wait-and-see game.

A new class has recently been introduced to the MMORPG Black Desert.

Fortnite: The community believes one of their biggest stars would be fake

Schuhmann 29. May 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

The successful Fortnite YouTuber and streamer Bryan “Ricegum” Le is currently public enemy number one in the Fortnite community on reddit. Let’s take a closer look at this.

Caught cheating: The YouTuber “Ricegum” is at this moment the top topic on reddit, although not in a way he would like. Someone uploaded a screenshot where Ricegum celebrates a victory with his hand raised. The same image shows that he still has his hands on the controller from a different camera perspective. The image is from a six-week-old video of Ricegum. The thread has over 38,500 upvotes. That’s a lot even by Fortnite standards.

At this moment RiceGum knew he fukt up. His hand is off the controller but not on the hand cam. This post is late but better late than never. from r/FortNiteBR

Why stream with a hand cam at all? Apparently Ricegum uses a hand camera because he wanted to prove that he is really playing himself and is not a faker. The allegations against him have been circulating for some time.

Does he really have a “Ghost Player?”

How does the community react? The community is laughing hard and sees this as proof that Ricegum has a “Ghost Player” playing for him.

But is that really the case? Ultimately, the screenshot proves nothing. It is quite possible that the hand camera has a delay. Therefore, this is not conclusive evidence. However, it does show an interesting conflict within the player base: The Fortnite community on reddit apparently has a major problem with some of the most successful Fortnite YouTubers.

Why is Ricegum so controversial? Ricegum is one of the most successful YouTubers in Fortnite. However, he is accused of relying on PR stunts and clickbait. In the eyes of many, he is not “legit,” i.e., real. Ricegum invented the “Strip Fortnite”: a trend where a woman undresses for every kill the player next to her achieves.

More on the topic

The YouTube trend “Strip Fortnite” is alarmingly successful

von Schuhmann

PR stunt with pro team: Recently, Ricegum conducted a kind of collaboration with the professional eSports team “Faze.” There he pretended to be a professional player training with the team. The video was titled “Why I’m Quitting YouTube (Professional Fortnite).” Of course, more videos about Fortnite were released afterward.

Conflict Entertainment vs. eSports: The reactions to Ricegum are similar to those of reddit towards “Ali-A.” There is a conflict between the community that respects the “strong” players like Ninja and critically views “entertainers” like Ricegum and Ali-A. A conflict that will certainly accompany us in the coming years.

FIFA 18 World Cup mode: How to get chemistry for World Cup players in FUT

Philipp Junge 29. May 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

In FIFA 18 started on May 29 the World Cup mode. This update for the World Cup also brings a new chemistry system for Ultimate Team. We will explain how it works.

On Tuesday, May 29, at 1 PM, the World Cup mode started. The update is free and brings many innovations, especially for Ultimate Team.

One of them is the new chemistry system. Many of you will wonder why your player chemistry is not at 10 or why you cannot reach 100 team chemistry. We will explain to you in this chemistry guide why this is the case and what you need to consider in squad building.

More on the topic

FIFA 18 World Cup Mode: Update of the World Cup squads – Reus is in, Wagner is out

von Philipp Junge

This is how the FUT cards link to each other

In the World Cup mode for FUT 18, there are three different types of links. They depend on the confederation or continent as well as the nationality of the player.

The Dead Link: Two players from different confederations form a red Dead Link, it brings no chemistry. An example would be Lionel Messi (South America) and Cristiano Ronaldo (Europe).

The Weak Link: Two players from the same confederation but different nations form an orange Weak Link. Here, an example would be Toni Kroos (Europe, Germany) and Paul Pogba (Europe, France).

The Strong Link: Two players from the same confederation and the same nation form a green Strong Link. As an example, you could take any players from a national team, such as David de Gea and Sergio Ramos (both Spain).

There is no Perfect Link in the World Cup update, clubs do not count!

Icons link with a Weak Link to each player. If they have the same nation or it is another icon, they even connect with a Strong Link.

World Cup chemistry system: The differences to normal FUT

In Ultimate Team, it is usually enough if a player only has Weak Links to bring him to 10 chemistry. This is no longer the case in the World Cup mode.

Loyalty: Pulled cards initially come without loyalty bonus. Only after 10 games do they receive it. After that, it gives +1 chemistry.

Manager: Managers have a confederation and a nation that cannot be changed. They give every player of the same continent a bonus of +2 chemistry.

Position: As always, a player has more chemistry when playing in accordance with his card position. You can change this normally with position cards.

More on the topic

FIFA 19 FUT Guide: The Influence of Chemistry on Your Game

von Tom Rothstein

How do I get players to full chemistry?

It is more difficult in the World Cup mode to get players to 10 chemistry. An exact formula does not exist yet, so we give here a few examples of player chemistry (based on the correct position):

A player who only has Strong Links reaches 10 chemistry points.
A player who only has Weak Links reaches 8 chemistry points.
A player who only has Dead Links reaches 2 chemistry points.

wm-modus-chemie-fifa-18 — Chemistry example 1 (by bPartGaming)

fifa-18-wm-modus-chemie-2 — Chemistry example 2 (by bPartGaming)

As you can also see from the screenshots from the capture event, some cards that would have had more chemistry in normal FUT now have less.

In general: It takes more green Strong Links in the World Cup mode to balance out weak connections than usually. For this, the manager bonus now brings two, instead of just one bonus point. Green Links are now easier to obtain, as popular players are concentrated in a few nations.

Nevertheless, the chemistry system could cause upheaval: Hybrid teams with players from different confederations will be significantly more difficult.

Destiny 2: Today Update 1.2.1 arrives – What you need to know

Sven Galitzki 29. May 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

On May 29, 2018, Update 1.2.1 for Destiny 2 is released. The patch introduces new features to the game. In addition, it is supposed to eliminate numerous annoying bugs that have plagued players for weeks. We have summarized all the important information for you.

Today, on May 29, 2018, Update 1.2.1 is coming out. Among other things, three new features for Destiny 2 are included.

These new features await you on May 29.

The Crucible Labs: With these Crucible Labs, players will gain access to experimental PvP content for the first time. This gives Bungie the opportunity to use Guardian feedback as a basis for further decisions in the Crucible. More information was promised before the launch of this feature, but so far Bungie has not provided any further details.

Improvements to the group fights: After a long break, the faction rally is returning. Although nothing is known about the upcoming changes yet, hints of possible exotic rewards and catalysts for exotic weapons tied to the individual factions have already been discovered in the Destiny 2 databases. However, the new group fights will not start right away on May 29. The start date and further information are expected to follow soon.

destiny_2_Kriegsgeist_escalation_protocol

Sandbox changes to exotic armors: The sandbox changes to the exotic weapons introduced with the Warmind DLC were well received by fans. With Update 1.2.1, the first wave of revised armor exotics is coming. Initially, six updated armor pieces will be introduced – two per class. Further updated exotic armor pieces are expected to follow in July.

Maintenance on May 29.

Before Update 1.2.1 is available for download and installation, maintenance work will be carried out today, Tuesday, May 29.

This time there is a novelty – no downtime is expected. This means there will be no server downtime. You will only need to interrupt your gameplay to download and install the new update. Afterward, you should be able to continue playing normally.

Plan for the maintenance work:

6:00 PM:

Start of the Destiny 2 server maintenance
Downtime is not expected.
Destiny 2 Update 1.2.1 is available for download and installation.

10:00 PM:

End of the Destiny 2 server maintenance
Players who have not installed Update 1.2.1 will be removed from their activities to download and install it.

destiny_2_Kriegsgeist_ps4_insight_terminus_strike

These issues will be resolved

Here is an overview of the biggest issues that are to be resolved with Update 1.2.1:

Some players lose Glory rank points if they leave the Crucible match too quickly after its end
The Clan XP milestone does not grant powerful rewards
The consumable “Fate of the Vanguard” sometimes blocks progress on strike-specific quest steps and milestones
The Howler during the Public Event on Mars sometimes closes too quickly, making it impossible for players to trigger the Heroic Public Event
Emperor Calus’s shield in the Leviathan raid can sometimes take too much damage after Destiny Update 1.2.0 before it can be broken
Some Destiny 2 players on PC are struggling with long loading times in Iron Banner matches

A complete list of the fixed bugs will be available in the patch notes for Update 1.2.1 later today.

A mount for extreme players: To obtain the Spectral Phoenix, it is necessary to have a total of 100 reputation factions at exalted after Patch 8.0 (Battle for Azeroth). This is quite tough, as even long-time players may still have some factions where they haven’t achieved that.

The colleagues at wowhead have already created a small preview video showcasing the “Reins of the Spectral Phoenix”.

Which factions are particularly tough: Completing the 100 factions requires a lot of work. Particularly the old PvP factions, which are related to the Warsong Gulch and Arathi Basin, are time-consuming. However, even less significant factions, such as the Syndicate, for which you definitely need the help of a rogue, may cause problems for many.

What other rewards are there? Besides the phoenix, there are also two titles for completing the quest for the exalted factions.

For 100 factions, the title “Esteemed [Character Name]” awaits.
Already from 80 exalted factions, you will receive the title “[Character Name] the Admired”.

What do you think of this achievement and the associated mount? A great reward for a few chosen players? Or simply too hard to achieve for newcomers?

Analyst explains why the $$$ model of Fortnite is so great

Jürgen Horn 28. May 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

Fortnite: Battle Royale (PC, PS4, iOS & Xbox One) earns a lot of money. According to renowned analyst Michael Pachter, this is due to the brilliant business model of Epic’s battle royale game.

Who is Michael Pachter? Michael Pachter has been an analyst for years working in the gaming sector at Wedbush Securities. He is well known for his rather provocative theses and predictions:

He has predicted the end of consoles several times
Categorized PC gamers as arrogant idiots and racists
Claimed that loot boxes exist only because people are foolish enough to buy them

But regarding Fortnite: Battle Royale, the controversial analyst takes much more positive tones in an interview with Venturebeat.

Time-limited skins are much better than RNG loot boxes

The business model of Fortnite: Battle Royale particularly excites the analyst. He calls it simply “brilliant”. On one hand, Fortnite is free-to-play and costs nothing. And then there are no loot boxes with random content and vanishingly low chances.

According to Pachter, Fortnite has something much better: time-limited skins! Every day new skins come into the shop costing between 8 and 20 euros. However, they are not available forever. Often, the expensive and accordingly cool skins are only available during specific events or it may take many weeks or months for a particular skin to return to the shop. If the skin ever comes back!

Therefore, many players would immediately jump at the chance and reach for their credit cards. After all, the cool skin could be gone soon. And all this without annoying loot boxes and gambling.

The Battle Pass – A fair offer

Additionally, there is the Battle Pass. It costs only 9.50 euros, provides various skins and other items, and pays for itself. You also receive in-game currency (V-Bucks) worth 15 euros if you complete it. According to Pachter, it is enough to buy such a pass once, play through it, and then grab the next pass from the prize money.

Theoretically, you could play unlimited Battle Passes once you have purchased it. Provided Epic does not change the prices or the V-Buck yield in future passes.

von Jürgen Horn

50 million US dollars in one day! – A role model for other publishers?

Nonetheless, enough people are likely still purchasing the passes with real money. Pachter claims to have been informed by Epic that the last Battle Pass was sold over 5 million times – in just one day! That would mean about 50 million dollars that Epic earned just from the pass.

According to Pachter, Epic’s great success with their business model is a signal to all other publishers. He expects that sooner or later, many publishers will adopt this model and also offer cosmetic products and cheap game passes in their games. Thus, no one would complain about pay-to-win anymore.

Mirage: Arcane Warfare ist das nächste Opfer der Europäischen Datenschutzverordnung

Andreas Bertits 28. May 2018 Reading time < 1 minutes

The newly introduced EU General Data Protection Regulation GDPR is causing a stir in the online gaming sector. It has now been reported that Mirage: Arcane Warfare had to be discontinued because of it.

The Torn Banner Studios have removed their online action game Mirage: Arcane Warfare from Steam. The servers will soon be shut down.

Another game is being shut down

Why was the game removed from Steam? The developers cannot afford the adjustments required by the new regulation. Mirage has been struggling with declining player numbers for some time, and the team simply sees no way to cover the costs of adjusting Mirage to comply with the GDPR.

The game has already disappeared from Steam. It is no longer possible to purchase Mirage: Arcane Warfare on Steam. However, those who already own the game can continue to play until the bitter end.

The servers will be shut down in a few days. The Torn Banner Studios announce that the servers of the online game will be shut down on May 31.

What will happen to Chivalry: Medieval Warfare? The predecessor of Mirage is performing much better, which is why it is also “worth” covering the costs to adjust to the GDPR. Therefore, you can continue to play Chivalry: Medieval Warfare as usual.

Mirage: Arcane Warfare is not the only online game that has to be shut down due to the GDPR.

Patrick Freese 28. May 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

During the Adventure Week in Pokémon GO, there are new field research quests that reward you with Rock-type Pokémon or candies.

Currently, there is an event in Pokémon GO that rewards adventurous trainers. You can expect more experience points and increased spawns of Rock-type Pokémon. In line with the event, Niantic has adjusted the field research quests. We will show you which monsters await you as rewards for the quests.

Quests in Pokémon GO for Adventure Week

For Adventure Week in Pokémon GO, Niantic has unlocked five new quests. These belong to the field research and reward you with encounters with Kabuto, Aerodactyl, Onix, or Amonita upon completion. Those who hatch eggs will be rewarded with special candies.

Currently, there are shiny forms of three of these Pokémon available in the game. Shiny Aerodactyl and these two shiny monsters are now in Pokémon GO.

Chance of a shiny from a quest? Trainers report that Pokémon encounters through quests can also yield shiny forms. This is precisely why trainers are actively working on many of the new field researches.

Elite Dangerous closes money exploit – players complain and praise

Andreas Bertits 28. May 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

An exploit in the space online game Elite Dangerous has been closed by the developers, leading to many tears within the community.

Exploit has been closed and players are angry

Players received too much money. The “Massacre Skimmer” missions in Elite Dangerous have been quite popular so far, as they offered an exploit through which players could acquire much more money than was actually intended.

Mission count is being limited. To curb the exploit, each Commander can now only accept 5 Skimmer missions at the same time.

Players are angry. Many players are unhappy with this change. They criticize the developers in the forum and express their disappointment. Reactions in the official game forum include:

“Don’t you have anything better to do?”
“If only you were as quick at fixing bugs…”
“I am constantly amazed at how poorly Frontier Developments manages its own game.”

But there are also positive voices. Not everyone finds the change bad. Some players also show understanding.

“So please, stop whining. 200M per hour was definitely too much.”
“Some here should perhaps go outside or learn to be polite.”
“Oh my God, now the universe is going to implode!”

The situation shows: You can’t please everyone…

In Elite Dangerous, there has been more complaining lately.

Dauntless: Developers have finally managed the queue after the rush

Micha Deckert 28. May 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

After the action RPG Dauntless launched its open beta on PC on May 24, players complained about huge queues. Now the developers have announced that they have managed to get the influx of players under control for the time being.

The developers of Dauntless keep players informed about the ongoing development of the action game even after the launch of the open beta. Now they have reported that they have finally managed to control the incredibly long queues that drove users crazy over the past weekend. For this, matchmaking has been improved.

Over 90,000 players in the queue

This is what it looked like at the start of the open beta: After Dauntless was only playable in alpha through a paid founder’s package, testers flocked to the open beta of the free-to-play game. Numerous players reported on Reddit of queues exceeding 60,000 users. One Redditor posted a screenshot showing a queue of over 90,000 Dauntless fans.

More on the topic

Dauntless has over 90,000 people in the queue – Why?

von Schuhmann

Developers are working hard: According to their own statements, the developers said over the weekend “all hands on deck”, everyone is pitching in to manage the huge queues. This has also succeeded, so that they are now at a “zero queue”, meaning a state where players no longer have to wait in line to access the servers.

This could change quickly again, according to Phoenix Labs. The queue was introduced to regulate the speed and number of players allowed on the servers. If the number of login attempts increases massively again, queues will likely have to return. Only in this way can it be ensured that the game runs smoothly for everyone.

Phoenix Labs announces further improvements

Dauntless as a live service: In addition to the queue, matchmaking has been improved as well. This means that the transition between Ramsgate and the islands is now faster and more reliable. Currently, a “QueenBee” error may still occur. However, this does not affect gameplay and will eventually resolve itself.

This week, the team aims to focus further on bugs and improve overall services. The team wants Dauntless to remain a live service over the coming years. The developers are already working on a revision of the matchmaking to accommodate even more players in Dauntless.

Developers thank for the patience: The studio Phoenix Labs thanks all players who supported and cheered for the developers over the weekend despite all the problems. Every message from the Slayers has given them a boost of energy and motivation.

Next, the work will focus on the most urgent bugs:

The tutorial islands sometimes do not load properly. Players affected by this issue are advised to close all running programs in the background and to lower the graphic and screen resolution. Additionally, they should switch between fullscreen and windowed mode.
Some founders are missing their Slayer packs.
Players can sometimes fall from an island because they get stuck on the edge near a ledge.

Destiny 2: Are there really catalysts in strikes? This is what Bungie says

Sven Galitzki 28. May 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

However, some Guardians report very different experiences. Some claim it made no difference for them whether they played heroic or Nightfall Strikes. The result remained the same – no catalyst. Others, however, claim that Strike catalysts drop even more frequently at lower high scores.

Be that as it may – according to official statements they are not bugged and can be obtained in the intended way – even if the chances are obviously very low.

What have your experiences been with the exotic catalysts from Strikes? Have you been lucky and received some already? Or are you still waiting for your first drop in a Strike?

For a long time, exotic catalysts, which Bungie claims drop in Strikes of Destiny 2, were considered a mystery. Until recently, the community was still looking for evidence of their existence. But they are real.

With the introduction of the revamped exotic weapons as part of the Warmind expansion, the hunt for the catalysts began. Many exotic firearms can now be upgraded to masterpiece status, granting them either stat boosts or additional perks.

The sources for the coveted catalysts vary from weapon to weapon. Some can be obtained from Crucible wins, others in raids, and others drop randomly from any enemies. However, the exotic catalysts, which according to official statements should randomly drop in Strikes against the toughest enemies, puzzled Guardians for a long time.

For the vast majority of Guardians, they simply would not drop in Strikes unlike other sources. The few self-proclaimed owners could mostly not provide clear evidence in the form of videos or screenshots of a Strike drop. The community even questioned the existence of the Strike catalysts and suspected a bug. However, Bungie and other players provided clarity.

Drop rate for catalysts in Strikes is not bugged

Numerous Guardians have completed up to 60-80 heroic Strikes without receiving a corresponding catalyst. They also had no success in Nightfall. The Reward Designer Daniel Auchenpaugh commented on this on Twitter.

While he may not be the first point of contact for this question, as far as he knows, there are no bugs in the drop rate of the catalysts.

Catalyst drops in video – After 87 Strikes!

There are finally videos and images of corresponding drops. For example, a Destiny fan posted a video on Twitter and Reddit showing the drop of a Strike catalyst. According to his words, this catalyst dropped only after an impressive 87 heroic Strikes – this week!

So they do exist. Only the drop chances seem to be extremely low. According to Community Manager dmg04, the chances can be increased by raising the challenge. With this remark in the tweet, he alludes to the various modifiers in the prestige version of the Nightfalls.
