Big Opportunity or Fail? This is how the community reacts to The Division 2

Tarek Zehrer 14. March 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

With the announcement of The Division 2, discussions around the sequel began. While YouTube experts like MarcoStyle and Skill Up are optimistic and see a continuation as a great opportunity for the franchise, parts of the community fear another Destiny 2.

Although further information on The Division 2 is not expected before E3, the community is actively exchanging opinions on the upcoming successor to The Division:

How do the YouTube experts react?
What is the attitude of Mein MMO readers towards a sequel?

MarcoStyle – “The Division 2 will not just be a remake.”

In direct response to the reveal of the sequel, renowned Division YouTuber MarcoStyle released a video expressing his opinion. He sees the announcement very positively and primarily as an opportunity for Massive to completely redo The Division and make it better.

He understands the fans who want the story to continue from the first installment. However, that one has many fundamental issues like netcode, bugs, glitches, and hackers. Patches would not be enough to resolve these.

The Division 2 offers exactly the opportunity not to repeat such mistakes while integrating a lot of new content.

The developers’ statements contribute to Marco’s optimism. They have learned a lot from their time with The Division and are aware of the possibilities a sequel offers. Therefore, he believes The Division 2 will be more than just a remake.

A Destiny 2 scenario is also possible, one simply has to wait for more information.

Even one of the formerly largest Division YouTubers, Skill Up, sees things similarly and mentions many points in his statement, points that cannot be solved with DLCs for The Division 1 but require a sequel:

One should

revise the netcode
combat the hacker problem
fix animation issues
completely overhaul inventory management
fill the open world with more life
continue the main story
either provide new areas or a completely new setting
rethink the Dark Zone design (Rogue 2.0)
revise the concept of gear sets

A The Division 2 could mean a kind of fresh start for many players, attracting new ones and solidifying the franchise. It would therefore be an opportunity for Massive to finally overcome the problems of the past.

This is what Mein MMO readers say

The announcement of The Division 2 and the contents for Year 3 are received with mixed feelings in the comments on our articles by Mein MMO readers. Many fear a disaster akin to Destiny 2.

Sevenghost approaches it skeptically and hopes that the trend of add-ons as full-price titles does not become the norm.
Klatch 1.0 writes: “I now have nearly 3000 playing hours and I am looking forward to The Division 2! The current The Division has become so boring. It’s about time!”
Jimmey Dean would have been happy to wait another 2-3 years for proper expansions for the first part, to then see a finished, comprehensive, and polished The Division 2 after 5 years of development.
Erzkanzler feels similarly: “Shooter MMOs should take a cue from MMORPGs regarding the product lifecycle. They barely managed to bring The Division to a playable state and now want to emulate Bungie…”
krieglich is less skeptical and finds that the developers have really put effort into making the first part a well-rounded game that is now extremely fun in co-op, and thus looks forward to the new installment.

Compadre does not see the risk that The Division 2 will follow the path of Destiny 2. The Division 1 has actually gotten better since early 2017, while Destiny 1 has gotten worse since early 2016.
SVBgunslinger also contradicts the fears: For all the core problems, a sequel is the best solution. With all the experiences, Massive should now be able to deliver a top-notch game.
DevilRon1989 is optimistic and writes: “Nice news. Hopefully, the second part will also be fed with more content. I would also like to learn more of the story. I also wish for more variety in terms of enemies.”

All that is included in the 1st free DLC of Monster Hunter World

Leya Jankowski 14. March 2018 Reading time 5 minutes

On March 22, Monster Hunter World will receive its 1st DLC, which will also include the Deviljho. The content patch will also feature a large Spring Festival with rewards, adjustments to almost all weapons, and the ability to redesign your character. The DLC is free as promised.

Hunters can look forward to spring, as Monster Hunter World will be upgraded with a major update. The DLC will contain a plethora of new content and gameplay adjustments. The update will be available for free on PS4 and Xbox One.

Below you will receive a summary of the new content.

Update 2.00 brings the new monster Deviljho on March 22

Next week Thursday, on March 22, the Deviljho will come to Monster Hunter World. On PS4, the update will be numbered 2.00, and on Xbox One, the patch will be 2.0.0.0.

The Deviljho is a brutal flying wyvern that is constantly hungry due to its high body temperature. This carnivore has been observed consuming its own kind.

Craft the “Vangis Armor” from the Deviljho – Also for the Palico

In Monster Hunter World, it’s customary to harvest monsters for their body parts. Hunters craft new weapons and armor from the monster materials. This also applies to the Deviljho.

The armor that can be crafted from the Deviljho at the forge is called Vangis, and it will be available as an Alpha and Beta set. There will also be a Deviljho variant for all 14 weapon classes in Monster Hunter World.

Vangis Armor in male and female

Vangis Armor for the Palico

“Spring Blossom Fest” runs from April 6 to April 12: Brings rewards and new food

Spring is heralded in the new world, and the gathering place will be draped in a sea of flowers. The NPCs who work here will also receive a special uniform fitting for spring. Numerous fun activities await the hunters here, primarily revolving around hunting monsters.

As there can be no festival without plenty of food, there will also be a new meal in the canteen. Hopefully, it’s not Poogie, who sits here as a flower idol on the table…

A new Great Sword also comes with the festival

Just in time for the start of the Spring Festival on April 6, there will also be materials available to craft a new weapon. This is the “Wyvern Ignition” Great Sword. What makes this weapon special is that it originated from a fan competition conducted by Capcom.

We do not yet know what stats the weapon will possess, but it will certainly look great!

Monster-Hunter-World-Wayvern-Ignition-Großschwert

Almost all weapons will receive adjustments – Here is an overview

Most weapons will receive either a buff or balance adjustments with the update. Here is a quick overview of what’s changing:

Great Sword: Damage will be increased for charged slash abilities
Long Sword: Improvements to the foresight slash that adjusts the timing and hitbox direction
Sword & Shield: “Roundslash” damage will increase and the slinger ability will be improved
Dual Blades: Adjustments that help maintain the Archdemon mode
Hammer: Adjustments to paralysis values and charged attacks
Hunting Horn: Attack power will be generally increased
Spear: Counter-thrust has been adjusted to make it easier to apply
Gunlance: Sharpness loss will be reduced when shooting and attacks will be generally increased
Morphing Axe: “Zero Sum discharge” adjustments to make it more user-friendly
Energy Blade: Balance changes to the vials
Insect Glaive: Improvement of the extract attack power (red) and extract effect lasts longer
Bow: Bug fixes
Light Bowgun: No changes
Heavy Bowgun: No changes

For all adjustments in detail, you can find here: How the weapons are changing with the 1st DLC in Monster Hunter World

“Mega Man” Quest for the Palico runs from April 13 to April 27

During the “Spring Blossom” festival, there will be a special event quest. With this, you will receive a ticket to craft special armor for your Palico at the forge. This will transform your cat companion into the cult robot Mega-Man in pixel style.

The appearance can be customized starting March 16: Changing gender is possible

As many players have requested the ability to change their character’s appearance, they will now be given this opportunity.

On March 16, every player will receive a free ticket that can adjust the hunter’s appearance. The ticket will then be available in the PlayStation Store and Xbox Game Store. The free ticket can only be used once! After that, tickets for appearance changes must be purchased with real money.

What the ticket can change:

Hunter’s gender
Hunter’s physical appearance (skin color, eye color, etc.)
Cosmetic appearance (hair, face paint, etc.) – This is, by the way, now also possible anytime for free and without a ticket

What the ticket CANNOT change:

Hunter’s name
Palico names
Palico appearance

Trolling during looting will come to an end! “Friendly-Fire” disabled

In Monster Hunter World, there was a significant loot problem. Players trolled other hunters while harvesting monsters and denied them the loot. Through the “Friendly-Fire” mechanic, other hunters could be hit by players and thus interrupted during the looting action.

Capcom promised to consider solutions and has now found one: “Friendly-Fire” will be disabled when players loot the monster.

Players are immune after completing the quest against:

All kinds of weapon attacks
Bombs

This brief overview summarized the major Spring Festival Update. There will also be an event quest in which you can unlock the armor of Dante from Devil May Cry.

Overwatch: According to professional feedback, a Sombra nerf is allegedly coming

Cortyn 14. March 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

The professional players of Overwatch are widely complaining about Sombra. This may lead to another nerf.

Balance is a sensitive topic in Overwatch that repeatedly sparks wild discussions. Currently, Sombra has come under scrutiny from players and regularly triggers heated debates in the official forums and on Reddit.

The complaints seem to bear fruit, as according to a streamer, Sombra will be nerfed again in the near future.

The player Zachary “ZachaREEE” Lombardo, who is currently playing for the Overwatch Contenders team Fusion University, revealed during a stream that Blizzard is aware of the Sombra issue. “Almost all players in the Contenders complained to Blizzard about Sombra” and received positive feedback that Sombra will be adjusted soon.

Sombra’s hacking is too fast and too powerful

The reason for the numerous complaints is the improvement of Sombra’s hacking. With the last major update, it was slightly reworked and can now hack a target within 0.65 seconds – interrupting it is barely possible.

But the effects of the hacking itself have also become more powerful, as Sombra now deactivates all abilities triggered by a button press. This includes things like Pharah’s rocket boost, as well as Hanzo’s and Genji’s wall climb.

We have detailed how exactly Sombra was changed with Patch 1.20 in the patch notes.

Before the patch, Sombra was too insignificant, now she is too powerful.

So far, this is just an unconfirmed rumor. An official announcement from Blizzard is still pending.

Do you think Sombra is currently too powerful? Or is she just a problem in the hands of professional players and not otherwise a big issue?

Have you seen the cool fan story in the video about Jetpack Cat? If that isn’t going to be hero number 28…

FIFA 18 TOTW 26 – The Team of the Week 26 in Ultimate Team

Philipp Junge 14. March 2018 Reading time 4 minutes

In FIFA 18 the TOTW 26 (Team of the Week 26) is known. These players receive Inform cards in Ultimate Team.

In addition to the currently available in packs “Path to Glory” Spring special cards, the new Team of the Week (TDW 26) will be released on Wednesday, March 14, at 7 PM in FUT 18. The 23 upgraded players will be available in packs for one week from release.

This week's highlights include Paolo Dybala (92), Marco Veratti (89), and Franck Ribery, Michi Batshuayi, and Petr Cech (all 87).

TOTW 26 – Player Card Ratings in Ultimate Team

Recommendations for small budget

Alongside the highlights, there are also players each week who are strong but may go unnoticed by many players due to their rating or obscurity. This means they could be real bargains on the transfer market.

Milan Škriniar (83), CB, Inter Milan: 69 pace, 86 defending, 81 physical and 1.88 meters make this center-back a real force. Additionally, he is Slovak and thus has a green link to the popular “Serie A” midfielder Marek Hamsik.
Alassane Pléa (82), ST, OGC Nice: A solid striker with good pace, shot, and strength values. What makes him interesting is his club and his nation. He forms a “Perfect Link” with Wylan Cyprien, who received a strong Inform card last week.
Rodrigo (83), ST, Valencia CF: 94 pace, dribbling and shooting in the mid 80s and 4-star skills are what the Spaniard brings. A strong, fast striker for an affordable La Liga or Spain team.

Hull City football player David Meyler achieved it: He reached 40-0 in the Weekend League

These were the Predictions for Team of the Week 26 in FUT 18

TOTW predictions are forecasts of which players deserve a place in the upcoming Team of the Week. While these predictions never align 100% with the official TOTW, it is therefore risky to act on the transfer market based on these, nonetheless, they give a good overview of which players could receive the coveted special cards.

What is the Team of the Week (TDW) in FIFA 18 Ultimate Team?

Every Wednesday, EA Sports reveals the Team of the Week in their annual football simulation “Ultimate Team” mode. This is also the case in FIFA 18. Players who performed outstandingly in real football over the past week are rewarded with special cards that have improved attributes.

You can pull the TOTW cards within one week from the packs that may contain Rare (Gold) players. However, the chance for this is to be considered low.

Additionally, you can buy them on the transfer market when offered by other players. However, the prices for these are usually extremely high. If you want to purchase one of the new Informs for your team, it is advisable to buy it at the beginning of the next week, as they will be cheaper then.

Closed Alpha of The Crew 2 is active, but testers must remain silent

Patrick Freese 14. March 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

Testers can now participate in the Closed Alpha of Ubisoft’s “The Crew 2“. The testing phase is active for several days, but confidentiality is required.

In an email, the team from The Crew 2 invited selected testers of the upcoming racing game yesterday, on March 13th. In Ubisoft’s new title, you can race on land, water, and in the air. The current testing phase is active until early next week.

The Crew 2 – PC Closed Alpha in March

The email explains that this testing phase is subject to a confidentiality agreement. Screenshots and videos from this alpha may not be shared with the public. We will have to wait for new insights into the game until there is a testing phase without an NDA.

The alpha is intended to test the infrastructure and gather further feedback about the game. In the past, tests with fewer players have already taken place.

According to initial reports, the current testing phase is only for Uplay, that is, PC players. The alpha phase is active from March 14 to March 19.

It sounds like testers will have access to the entire map and various races with boats, planes, and cars during the test.

Originally, The Crew 2 was supposed to be released on March 16, 2018, but that release was postponed without a specific replacement date. Theoretically, this allows for a release starting in April 2018. The racing game will be released for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.

Due to this closed alpha, players in the community suspect that an open beta is now not far away. However, there has been no official statement on this yet.

Whether with racing boats on the water, sleek planes in the air, or racing and off-road vehicles on the ground – The Crew 2 offers many racing opportunities. We have already played the game for you and share our impressions with you. Our preview of the open-world racing game The Crew 2

Invitation wave for WoW: Battle for Azeroth – Are you in?

Cortyn 14. March 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

More players have been allowed into the Alpha of Battle for Azeroth: Invitations have been sent out. Are you already exploring the latest WoW expansion?

The Alpha of the next expansion of World of Warcraft seems to be starting to ramp up. So far, mainly some streamers, journalists, and friends and acquaintances of Blizzard have been invited. However, since yesterday, some players have reported in the official forums that they have also gained access to the Alpha. It seems that Blizzard is gradually inviting more players.

WoW Wallpaper Alliance Heroes Battle for Azeroth

It’s best to check your Battle.net launcher and see under the “World of Warcraft” menu item in “Region / Account” if you can select the Alpha for Battle for Azeroth. If so, then the download should start with a size of nearly 44 GB.

Do you want a chance to receive an invitation to the Alpha and Beta for Battle for Azeroth? Here we tell you how to sign up!

Warning about Phishing Emails

Some players also report that they have received emails from Blizzard confirming their invitation. You should be especially skeptical here, as there are many phishing attempts! For access to the Alpha/Beta, it is not necessary to respond to an email. No “Key” or anything similar needs to be activated. As soon as you can participate in the Alpha, it will be directly displayed in the Battle.net app.

Tomorrow evening (15.03.2018), there will be a larger Q&A with Game Director Ion Hazzikostas that thematically focuses on Battle for Azeroth. Many fans suspect that Hazzikostas will announce further waves of invitations or even announce the transition to closed Beta.

As soon as there is more detailed information on the topic, we will report on it.

Do you want to miss any more info about Battle for Azeroth and the Beta invitations? Then feel free to leave a like on our Facebook page specifically for WoW-Mein-MMO!

New survival shooter Scavengers looks a bit like Destiny 3

Andreas Bertits 14. March 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

The Warzone mode of Halo 5 was well received by many players, but the developers had much bigger plans, which they are now implementing in a separate game called Scavengers. They will use the amazing technology SpatialOS for this. The first concept art looks a bit like it’s Destiny 3.

Scavengers places you in the near future. An asteroid has destroyed our moon, plunging the Earth into a new Ice Age. Resources have become scarce. To make matters worse, a disease is decimating wildlife. Humanity must fight for survival.

You belong to one of two factions fighting for the last resources. Survival, teamwork, and shooter action are the focus.

Scavengers is intended to be a multiplayer survival shooter with coop elements.

More than just the next online shooter

Scavengers aims to offer you more than just another online shooter experience:

Join one of two factions
Fight for control of a large map
Make decisions as a team
Fight not only other players but also AI-controlled enemies
The game is divided into sessions, with each round having a certain playtime (which has not yet been determined)
Each session is supposed to differ from the others

Decisions are important

In Scavengers, it’s not just about eliminating other players, but also about making tactical decisions. If, for example, your clan is on the way to fulfill your goal and you encounter a small group of other players, you must decide as a team how to proceed.

Will you attack the other players, putting your goal at risk?
Maybe the group has something that could be useful to you
Will you ignore the players and risk them backstabbing you?

A bit hardcore

Scavengers is somewhat oriented toward “realism” based on the upcoming hardcore shooter Escape from Tarkov, but does not want to go that far. Nevertheless, each session is supposed to present a great challenge where every decision is important.

Furthermore, the developers use the technology SpatialOS to create a large and realistic game world. The development of Scavengers is still in very early stages, which means that it is currently unclear when the online game will be released or when test phases are planned.

The concept art and initial images remind many observers of Destiny.

Currently, no release date for Scavengers is known. It is also not yet clear which platforms it will be coming to.

FIFA 18: New Title Update 1.10 Fixes Jersey Number Bug

Philipp Junge 14. March 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

On the evening of March 13, EA released a new FIFA 18 update. Here are all the patch notes for version 1.10 for PC, Xbox One, and PS4 in German.

Last night, a new FIFA update was released for PC. As always, the patch for consoles will follow in a few days. There are no changes to the gameplay, just a few minor improvements and bug fixes.

The main changes of the March update

The new title update fixes a bug that has existed since the launch of FIFA 18. If you wanted to give your players individual jersey numbers in FUT team management, these were reset as soon as changes were made to the team.
Additionally, most matches that ended with a connection loss will now be displayed in the FUT Champions channel. This hopefully makes the games of the top 100 gamers more transparent and reveals cheaters faster.
There is also a change to the Pro Clubs friendly match. If it is still tied after 90 minutes, it will now continue with extra time (Silver Goal) and, if necessary, a penalty shootout.

All patch notes of the latest title update

In addition to the changes mentioned above and some Ultimate Team fixes, there isn’t much new in the FIFA 18 title update. Only a few minor Pro Club bug fixes and an update for two kits (Catfish and Bottlemen) are included.

Here is the official changelog in German:

Also interesting: Last weekend, a football professional hit the 40-0 mark in the Weekend League.

Pokémon GO: Guide for Latios and Latias, Regirock, Registeel and Regice

Patrick Freese 14. March 2018 Reading time 5 minutes

The legendary Pokémon Rayquaza will soon disappear, leaving a spot in the legendary boss selection of Pokémon GO. It is unclear which monsters will follow next.

After Lugia is available on April 2, Latios and Latias will take its place. In this overview, we show you the legendary duo and how to effectively battle against them. We also provide an overview of Regirock, Registeel, and Regice, which may be released in Pokémon GO at a later time.

[toc]

Latios and Latias Overview – How strong are the monsters?

The team of Latios and Latias is also known as the “Eon Duo”. The two monsters differ in their stats, with Latios having stronger offensive stats and Latias having better defensive stats.

In the following table from PokémonGOHub, you can clearly see the differences between the two dragon/psychic Pokémon:

The stamina values of Latios and Latias are the same, but attack and defense are swapped between the two. Because the attack value has a stronger influence on the CP, Latios has higher combat points because of it.

Latios and Latias Movesets – What attacks do they know?

Based on the general stats, trainers are interested in what attacks the dragons have. The following attacks are currently planned in the Game Master file for the two monsters, but this might change before any possible release.

As fast attacks, both know Fire Blast and Zen Headbutt.

Latios
- Fast Attacks: Fire Blast (Dragon) and Zen Headbutt (Psychic)
- Charge Attacks: Dragon Claw (Dragon), Psychic (Psychic), and Solar Beam (Grass)
Latias
- Fast Attack: Fire Blast (Dragon) and Zen Headbutt (Psychic)
- Charge Attacks: Outrage (Dragon), Psychic (Psychic), and Thunder (Electric)

With Fire Blast and Dragon Claw, the Eon Duo can have one of the best movesets of dragon Pokémon. In the past, Dragonite could learn these attacks before they attained “Legacy” status. Now, Pokémon can no longer learn these attacks. Therefore, it will be exciting to see if Niantic retains these attacks for Latios and Latias in the game or removes or replaces them before release.

Strong Counters Against Latios and Latias?

In recent weeks, trainers have been able to prove their skills against the dragon Pokémon Rayquaza. While Latios and Latias are also dragons, they have “Psychic” as a second type. This makes ice attackers less effective against them than against Rayquaza.

Instead of the double weakness against ice, the psychic type creates new weaknesses against bug, ghost, and dark.

According to current moveset data, the strongest attackers include Rayquaza, Dragonite, and Tyranitar. Close behind are Salamence or Mewtwo with Shadow Ball. As a glass cannon, Gengar with Dark Claw is excellent.

Against the Dragon Claw moveset, Gardevoir and Granbull are strong attackers, especially when cloudy weather occurs.

Other noteworthy attackers against Latios and Latias include:

Groudon
Scyther
Pinsir
Houndoom
Gyarados (with Crunch and Outrage)
Articuno
and Rosanna

Regirock, Regice, and Registeel Overview – How strong are the monsters?

Pokémon GO Regi Trio — Source: pokemoninsidersecrets

Later, Niantic could release this legendary trio. Whether they will appear in a regional rotation similar to the beasts and change after a month remains to be seen.

The general stats of the three Regis are visible in the following table from PokémonGOHub:

It is clear that this trio should rather be used for defensive purposes as their attack isn’t particularly high. Since legendary Pokémon are prohibited as gym defenders, finding a sensible use for these three monsters will be difficult.

Regirock, Registeel, and Regice Movesets – What attacks do they know?

The attacks of this trio have not yet been finalized. Currently, it is assumed that the attacks found in the Game Master file will be used. Similar to Latios and Latias, the Regi trio has a fast attack and a charge attack that each of them could know. There are also attacks that differ among the three monsters.

Regirock
- Fast Attacks: Rock Throw (Rock), Brick Break (Fighting)
- Charge Attacks: Rock Slide (Rock), Thunderbolt (Electric), Focus Blast (Fighting)
Registeel
- Fast Attacks: Metal Claw (Steel), Brick Break (Fighting)
- Charge Attacks: Flash Cannon (Steel), Hyper Beam (Normal), Focus Blast (Fighting)
Regice
- Fast Attacks: Frost Breath (Ice), Brick Break (Fighting)
- Charge Attacks: Blizzard (Ice), Earthquake (Ground), Focus Blast (Fighting)

Regirock, Registeel, and Regice Counters – Bring the Fighting Pokémon

Although the three Regis differ in their types, they still have similar counters. Registeel and Regice attract fire counters magically because they are strong against the types. Registeel and Regirock have problems with ground attackers.

All three have a major issue with the fighting machines Machamp and Hariyama. If you have this fighting duo in your team, nothing can really go wrong. Nevertheless, we show you more important counters.

Against Registeel and Regice, you have two potent attackers with Moltres and Entei. Ho-Oh would also be a good choice.
Against Registeel, you can additionally engage with the strongest ground Pokémon in the game: Groudon.
- The vulnerability to fire also allows attackers like Flareon or Charizard.
Against Regirock you have two super attackers with Groudon and Kyogre. Kyogre offers the higher DPS and Groudon has better resistances against Thunderbolt and Rock Slide.
- Here too, Machamp and Hariyama are top attackers.

We asked the developers: “Are you making a Warframe 2?”

Leya Jankowski 14. March 2018 Reading time 6 minutes

On the occasion of the 5th anniversary of Warframe our author Leya conducted an interview with Rebecca Ford, Live Ops and Community Director at Digital Extremes (DE). We discussed the past and the future of Warframe. In this future, open-world maps like the Plains of Eidolon will play an important role.

Warframe is a free multiplayer online shooter from Digital Extremes that is often compared to Destiny. You play as a Tenno in a futuristic setting, equipped with various biomechanical suits. These suits are referred to as Warframes and have different abilities.

In March 2013, Warframe came to light, launching as a pure lobby shooter with exactly one level. Since then, Warframe has undergone a significant transformation and offers players a complete star system.

Warframe celebrates 5th anniversary, announces major reveal

Rebecca Ford is the Community Director at Digital Extremes and answered some questions for us at Mein-MMO about “5 years of Warframe”.

Warframe has evolved into a different game in 5 years

Mein-MMO: We are currently looking back at five years of Warframe. During the beta, you had some problems keeping the game alive. You had a smaller player base and received mixed reviews. Today you have more than 35 million registered players and are known for being close to the community. Could you give us a brief summary of how Warframe has changed over the last 5 years?

Rebecca: Hmm…a brief summary of Warframe over the last five years? That might be the most difficult question I’ve been asked to date.

Briefly: “Take many risks and recognize when to celebrate success and when to admit mistakes.”

Warframe had to learn how to do Free2Play the hard way

A little more specifically, I would say that Warframe has grown in content and character, as we have attracted a huge group of enthusiastic and engaged fans who love the game. We give them plenty of reasons to hang out, play, and come back.

Secondly, we provide players with the opportunity to play together. Thirdly, we regularly invite them to challenge us, talk to us, and meet us.

If Warframe disappeared from your radar two years ago or if you played it when it first came out on PlayStation 4 and then stopped, there are now so many improvements and changes that Warframe is almost a different game.

“It is important to seize opportunities”

Mein-MMO: When you brought the “Plains of Eidolon” to Warframe, you opened up the corridors of your lobby shooter and introduced the first open-world map. In what way did a risky update like this impact you as developers?

Rebecca: Presenting the Plains of Eidolon at TennoCon 2017 was one of the scariest and most exciting reveals we’ve ever had. We had already taken other risks, but that was something different!

The new open world of Warframe scares me – But I want more!

We put an enormous amount of work into this creation, and we had no idea whether players would love it or hate it. But seizing opportunities is really important for a “Games-as-a-Service” title like ours. We are constantly moving, always creating new content, and feel that we should always challenge ourselves in our own perception of what Warframe is and could be.

The Plains have given us new energy, creativity, and a new purpose. Since then, the Plains have already received several updates, including “Shrines of the Eidolons” and we have more innovations planned. After the Plains, we also want to travel to Venus to introduce another open-world expansion there.

The future focus of Warframe is the open-world areas

Mein-MMO: The Plains of Eidolon brought a lot of new players to Warframe, and the update was overall well received. Since then, you have moved important mechanics like the Arcanes as a raid substitute to the Plains. Some players feel that you are forcing the Plains on them with such actions. Is the future of Warframe in open-world maps, and what would you say to players who are concerned about this?

Rebecca: Definitely, the future of Warframe will have even more open-world expansions. We received a lot of positive feedback indicating that players love the overall idea.

Earlier this year, we conducted a survey in which we found that a large portion of players likes the Plains of Eidolon and is looking forward to more open zones in Warframe.

However, this does not mean that we are now solely focusing on open-world content. That is part of our direction. As you may have noticed, Lotus is undergoing some changes, and her future is a small part of a larger story that we want to release this year.

What happened to Lotus? Warframe bid farewell in 2017 with a shocking story twist!

New Umbra form of the Warframes comes along with the story expansion

Mein-MMO: Although Warframe is at its core a loot grinder, you have integrated a moving and immersive story within Warframe over the past five years. Could you give me a teaser about the upcoming lore of Warframe?

Rebecca: Well, I’ve already revealed as much as I can in my last answer without it turning into spoilers. But let’s just say that there will be a lot more new story this year, along with a long-overdue visit from Umbra.

For explanation: Umbra Warframes will be a special version of the suits. The Warframe Excalibur is set to receive the first Umbra version. The introduction of Excalibur Umbra has been planned by Digital Extremes as something special and will likely come with a unique acquisition method.

On the new open-Venus map, everything will be different

Mein-MMO: You have already published the first images of the open-world map on Venus. It was clear that you are taking a different direction than with the Plains on Earth. Can we expect a new kind of content and gameplay here? Will there be new bosses that require a different approach than the Eidolons in the Plains?

Rebecca: Venus is the second of our open-world expansions, and with it, you will see a new world. This means there will be a different set of enemies, different weather conditions, and different bosses. Such as spider bosses!

About the story of the Venus map, I can reveal so much: The Orokin undertook terraforming on Venus to make the planet habitable for them. The Corpus faction populated Venus as the Orokin fell and continued their work. Venus has a coolant that ensures a low temperature on the planet.

On Venus, there is a remaining civilization that lives underground. They are called “Solaris United” and are unfortunate laborers of the Corpus. They are responsible for processing and refining coolant so that it can be used on the surface of Venus. The cold on Venus then leads to ice storms.

The new open map on Venus will be a frosty cyberpunk world – See the first pictures here

Digital Extremes takes Warframe in a different direction than Bungie with Destiny

Mein-MMO: Have you ever thought about starting over completely and developing a Warframe 2 with your current experience? Bungie has taken this path and developed a sequel to Destiny. Can you relate to the problems that Bungie is now facing after deciding to redesign their game?

Rebecca: When we released the Plains of Eidolon, some players asked us if they could just call it Warframe 2. We like the idea of a Warframe 2, but Warframe is a game that is constantly evolving.

We want to continue supporting Warframe with updates, develop it further, and listen to our players. That has served us well so far! We are not planning a sequel.

So there will be no Warframe 2, and the world of the online shooter will continue to evolve in its current form. However, it is expected that there will be a strong focus on open zones in Warframe in the coming years, which fans have already referred to as Warframe 2.

What would you think of a Warframe 2? Would it be good for the game to wipe everything and start fresh?

Game duration of A Way Out: How long does it take to complete the game?

Micha Deckert 14. March 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

A Way Out, the new co-op experiment from the creator of Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, will be released on March 23 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Game Director Josef Fares has now revealed new details about the action game, including the playtime.

Our colleagues from GameSpot recently spoke with the game’s Game Director, Josef Fares, who shared some details about the playtime and the development process.

The playtime of A Way Out is said to be around 6 to 8 hours
The developer Hazelight started the project with only ten employees, which later increased to about 40 during development
Fares wrote the story himself but also worked with a “script doctor”
According to Fares, EA was very supportive and did not interfere: “If EA wants to make an apple greener, I can say no”
100 percent of the revenue from A Way Out goes to the developer Hazelight. According to Fares, EA helps with marketing and support but apparently receives nothing from the profits
Fares is incredibly excited about A Way Out, especially its co-op multiplayer. He stated that he would spend 10 million US dollars on a purely single-player game
Fares would never make a game with microtransactions
There are currently no plans for a Nintendo Switch edition

Absolute Co-op Required

A Way Out tells the story of two convicts who are on the run after escaping from prison in the 70s.

The action game can only be played together with another player locally in split-screen or online. The owner of the game can easily invite friends to their game session, even if they do not own the title.

Destiny 2: These pulse rifles make the March update really strong

Sven Galitzki 14. March 2018 Reading time 6 minutes

The next big update 1.1.4 for Destiny 2 will significantly enhance many weapons – including pulse rifles. We will show you which representatives of this weapon class will become particularly strong as part of the March update.

The upcoming update milestone brings a lot of changes for Destiny 2 on March 27. The PvP will be fundamentally overhauled. The balance of classes and weapons will also be redefined. In the course of these changes, pulse rifles will be significantly buffed. As a result, this currently neglected weapon class will become really attractive.

We will show you some pulse rifles that will represent a convincing alternative to the previously dominant weapons in Destiny 2 after the March update.

The strongest pulse rifles after the March update

Some of these weapons are already a solid choice due to their perks and performance. However, with the upcoming changes, they will be even more worthwhile starting March 27. Because as part of the upcoming update, they will be buffed to a serious alternative to scouts and auto rifles, and should no longer go unnoticed by then.

The following pulse rifles should not be missed:

Wings of Vigilance

The Wings of Vigilance is a fast-firing exotic pulse rifle and is carried in the kinetic slot. Looking closer at the intrinsic perk, it becomes clear that the strengths of the wings clearly lie in PvP.

This solid weapon is excellent for mid-range. If you additionally equip armor mods that reduce the recoil of the kinetic weapon, this pulse rifle becomes even more effective. Three bursts are usually enough to take down an opponent.

Currently, the Wings of Vigilance have only one real flaw – the damage output. This issue will be corrected with the upcoming update. After that, the weapon will be a recommended alternative for PvP.

Relentless

The Relentless is a legendary pulse rifle from the Trials of the Nine and is carried in the kinetic slot. It is excellently suited for PvP – provided you are skilled at landing headshots when it matters. The recoil behavior is slightly predictable and can be well controlled. The weapon feels really pleasant to use.

The current problem with this pulse rifle is the generally weak archetype it belongs to and the fact that both the body shot damage dealt and the bonus damage from Headseeker are too low. However, this issue will be addressed by the upcoming update. After that, the Relentless should be a recommended choice in PvP for all Guardians who can aim well.

True Prophecy II

The legendary pulse rifle True Prophecy II is the winning weapon of the New Monarchy from the 4th faction rally and is carried in the kinetic slot. As a pulse rifle, the weapon is very solid. The perk combination is suitable for both PvE and PvP. It is particularly suited for mid to long range.

Currently, the weapon cannot compete with auto rifles at mid-range or with scouts at longer ranges. However, the upcoming update will significantly strengthen both the weapon itself and its perk Overflow. By then, you should give this weapon a chance.

Coronation Speech

The Coronation Speech is a legendary pulse rifle from the Calus raid and is equipped in the energy slot. It is already a really good weapon with very strong perks, which mostly just lacks damage.

In the right hands, this weapon can also pose a threat in its current state and can even stand up to auto rifles. It can also shine brilliantly in PvE. This rifle will benefit immensely from the upcoming changes and should then at the latest be found in every Guardian’s closer selection of weapons.

Graviton Lance

The Graviton Lance is an exotic pulse rifle and is carried in the energy slot. In its current state, the Lance is hardly even worth mentioning. Currently, it finds no serious application in the game because it disappoints across the board as an exotic and is not worth an exotic slot.

However, as part of the overhaul of exotics, this weapon is set to be massively improved. Although the changes are only planned for May, a brief overview of the upcoming changes sounded very exciting and promising. So you should definitely keep an eye on this pulse rifle in the future.

Cadence-43

The Cadence-43 is a legendary pulse rifle that is carried in the energy slot. It strongly resembles the Iron Sights or the PDX from the predecessor title and is a very solid choice with good perks for PvE. With stability mods for armor, the weapon can be further optimized. Then it can also be pleasant to use in PvP.

The problem with the Cadence-43 is, as with all other pulse rifles, the currently too low damage output. With the upcoming buff of this weapon class, this weapon should also soon be worth a closer look for Guardians.

Last Bastion

The Last Bastion is a legendary pulse rifle for the energy slot. The weapon performs well in both PvE and PvP. The perk Overflow is particularly useful and noticeable when fighting against large masses of enemies in PvE.

The weapon handling is good, and the vertical recoil can be easily balanced out. If you have stability mods equipped, the weapon can also become an extremely lethal instrument in PvP.

Starting March 27, this pulse rifle should also represent a solid alternative for the energy slot. If the weapon is missing from your collection, you still have enough time to earn it. The Last Bastion is definitely worth a recommendation.

Swift Ride

The Swift Ride is a legendary pulse rifle and is carried in the energy slot. Due to its perks, it is excellent for PvP – provided you can land headshots when the situation demands it.

But it also feels enjoyable in PvE. The rifle performs well at mid-range. The recoil behavior is predictable and can be easily compensated.

The problem with this weapon is the fact that both the body shot damage dealt and the bonus damage from Headseeker are too low. However, this issue will be addressed by the upcoming update. After that, you should at least try taking a Swift Ride through the enemy ranks.

Darkness Forward

The Darkness Forward is a legendary pulse rifle from the Trials of the Nine and is carried in the energy slot. It is excellent for PvP and is regarded by many Guardians as the best pulse rifle for Guardian duels.

In skilled hands, the high fire rate, Fixed Draw, and the fully automatic trigger system make the weapon a serious competitor to auto rifles and scouts even in the current meta. Terms like “laser with range” or “divine” are often mentioned.

With the upcoming update 1.1.4, this strong weapon will soon become even more powerful. For PvP fans, this pulse rifle is an absolute must-have! If you don’t have it in your collection yet, you certainly have a compelling reason to check out the Trials of the Nine by the end of March.

What do you think of this selection? Are all your favorites included, or is a strong representative of pulse rifles missing?

New monster Deviljho coming in March to Monster Hunter World

Leya Jankowski 14. March 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

On the Japanese site Famitsu, there was an article about future expansions and changes in Monster Hunter World. It was announced that the Deviljho would arrive in March. Additionally, hunters will soon have the opportunity to customize their appearance and that of their Palico, but with a twist.

The Deviljho is eagerly awaited by many hunters. It is also known as Demonjho in German and is a combat wyvern. This carnivore is always hungry and has been observed eating its own kind.

For a long time, there was speculation about when the monster would finally arrive. Now it is officially confirmed that this will happen in March.

The Deviljho arrives on March 22 for Monster Hunter World – DLC is free

To be precise, the Deviljho will appear next Thursday, on March 22. As promised by Capcom, this DLC will be available for free download.

Besides the Deviljho, there will be many other updates that hunters will likely enjoy. The most important ones will be summarized below.

Deviljho Armor – First Images

Capcom released a picture of the armor that you can obtain from the Deviljho.

Hunters will soon be able to customize their appearance, but with a twist

Each account will receive a free ticket. Additional tickets must be purchased with real money.

One ticket applies to one character in the account.
The name and appearance of the Palicos can be changed.

Friendly-Fire will be turned off when looting a monster

In Monster Hunter World, there was a major loot problem. Players trolled other hunters when looting monsters and denied them the loot. Due to the “Friendly-Fire” mechanic, other hunters could be hit by players, interrupting the looting action.

Capcom promised to consider solutions and has now found one: “Friendly-Fire” will be turned off when players loot monsters.

Other important announcements included:

There will be more investigations
Weapons will receive adjustments and improvements
Bugs will be fixed

Wonder Technology is supposed to turn an essentially dead game into an MMORPG

Andreas Bertits 14. March 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

Forsaken Legends was an ambitious project a few years ago by a small team that aimed to provide fans of sandbox MMORPGs with a large playground to explore. However, the game turned out to be too ambitious. The groundbreaking technology SpatialOS is now supposed to make that dream a reality.

Forsaken Legends aimed to offer a sandbox world that could be altered by the players. For example, it should have been possible to clear an area of monsters by completing a series of quests. Additionally, a sophisticated economy system played a large role. Resource extraction, crafting, trading, and building houses, castles, and cities formed one of the core elements of the title.

From MMORPG to Cooperative Multiplayer Game

But that did not happen.

The project turned out to be too large for the three-person team. It went quiet on Forsaken Legends until the project leader spoke up at the end of last year and stated he would not give up on his dream. However, instead of a huge MMORPG, Forsaken Legends would become a smaller group-based online RPG. Meanwhile, the other team members had dedicated themselves to new projects to pay their bills.

Return to the MMORPG Concept

Now there is another update about the game that MMORPG fans might enjoy. A former programmer is now back in the team, and the group is currently considering utilizing SpatialOS to turn Forsaken Legends back into an MMORPG.

With the SpatialOS software, huge game worlds can be created that can even be simulated in detail. According to the developers, SpatialOS would provide the possibility to turn Forsaken Legends into the ambitious game originally planned. A gigantic, nearly endless, and procedurally generated sandbox world filled with content.

However, one should still approach the project with caution and wait to see how Forsaken Legends develops further.

Fortnite Battle Royale: Increase PC FPS – Here’s how to optimize your graphics settings

Patrick Freese 14. March 2018 Reading time 4 minutes

Fortnite Graphics on PC – Use these tips and tricks to optimize your game.

During the great boom of Fortnite, more and more players are jumping on the bandwagon, trying out the battle royale shooter, and sticking around. Fortnite Battle Royale is currently one of the most played games in the world. You can play it on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.

The good thing about the game: The graphics of Fortnite do not demand much. The simple, colorful look allows even “older” systems to achieve high FPS rates. In our guide, we show you how the graphics settings work. This way, you should get the best Fortnite experience possible on PC.

Explanation of Graphics Settings in Fortnite

For long-time PC gamers, the graphics settings in Fortnite are no surprise. With shadows, resolution, and anti-aliasing, you are familiar.

Due to the high popularity that Epic’s version of battle royale is currently enjoying, many new players are joining. They may not have spent much time looking into graphics settings on PC. For you, we want to briefly explain what the various settings mean and how they affect gameplay.

Resolution
- One of the fundamental settings in every video game. It’s best to use the native resolution of your monitor. For standard full HD monitors, this would be 1920×1080 in full screen.
Framerate / Frame Rate Limit
- You can leave the frame rate on “unlimited”. If you want to save resources, adjust the frame rate to your monitor’s Hz rate. For example, 60 FPS or 144FPS.
3D Resolution
- This is basically the scaling of your resolution. This allows you to change the resolution of Fortnite without altering the monitor’s resolution. You can generally ignore this setting. If you are using an old PC system and want to play Fortnite “somehow”, you can reduce the resolution here.
View Distance
- With this option, you set how far away you can see smaller objects clearly in Fortnite. For your gameplay, it makes sense to set this slider as high as possible.
Shadows
- Here you set the quality of the shadows. This setting has a significant impact on performance – high-quality shadows require a lot of resources. Choose at least the medium setting here. High-quality shadows are more suitable for strong PCs; they are important “for the eye.” Besides aesthetics, they also affect gameplay. One should not completely forgo shadows, as they can help you see enemies behind corners or on higher buildings from the ground.
Anti-Aliasing
- Anti-aliasing allows you to make objects and surfaces “smoother.” You probably know those bumps along the edges of objects. This option presents them more smoothly. The medium option uses FXAA, which, while not the best, has a minimal effect on your FPS. If you have enough resources, you can turn this slider up for smoother edges in Fortnite.
Textures
- With the texture slider, you can set how detailed the surfaces in Fortnite are rendered. A lower setting can achieve more FPS if performance is more important to you than beautiful graphics.
Effects
- Changes to this setting become noticeable in matches when things explode or are destroyed.
Post-Processing
- This option includes effects like dynamic lighting in Fortnite. Changes to post-processing have a lesser impact on performance or graphic quality in the game.
Motion Blur
- Turning this option on and off greatly depends on your personal preferences. It’s purely a matter of taste.
V-Sync
- Vertical synchronization adjusts Fortnite’s frame rate to your desktop’s refresh rate. If your desktop runs at 60Hz, Fortnite tries to keep the game at that value.

System Requirements for Fortnite – Play on Low-End PCs

Fortnite uses the Unreal Engine 4, which is also used by PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. However, due to Fortnite’s mentioned simple style, the requirements for PCs can be kept extremely low. Minimum requirements state an onboard graphics card. And that says something: after all, even old “boxes” can run Fortnite.

Fortnite Minimum Requirements

CPU: Intel Core i3 2.4GHz
RAM: 4GB
Graphics Card: Intel HD 4000
VRAM: Not necessary
Operating System: Windows 7/8/10 64-bit or Mac OSX Sierra
Storage: 15 GB

Fortnite Recommended System

CPU: Intel Core i5 2.8GHz
RAM: 8GB
Graphics Card: Nvidia GT 660 or AMD Radeon HD 7870, DX11
VRAM: 2GB
Operating System: Windows 7/8/10 64-bit
Storage: 20 GB

With these systems, you can play Fortnite. However, for a perfect gaming experience, we recommend more power. For example, a Nvidia graphics card from the 900 series or higher VRAM, or a comparable AMD graphics card.

More FPS – How to Boost Your Frames

Are you having issues with low FPS in Fortnite and want to boost your frames? A few of the settings discussed above have a significant impact on your FPS. You can reduce quality to play Fortnite more smoothly.

The minimum target here for low-end machines is, of course, smooth gameplay – around 60 FPS. More powerful systems may aim for 120-150 FPS. Expect lower frames in heated battles than when walking across open fields.

Shadows – the FPS Eaters! If you need a quick FPS boost, reduce shadows to the essentials. If that still doesn’t help, turn them off completely. Keep in mind that this negatively affects gameplay as you may not see enemy shadows at all.

Anti-Aliasing – Nice to Have, but … if you’re willing to sacrifice great visuals for more FPS, simply turn this option down.

Effects slow down during large fights. If you’ve got the settings dialed in so that Fortnite runs smoothly but it lags during intense fights, then dial down the effects for more stability.

If all else fails, reduce the resolution. For a good gaming experience, we cannot recommend resolutions below the standard of 1920×1080. This should really be the last resort if you absolutely want to play Fortnite on an extremely weak system.

After graphics comes the improvement of your gameplay style – These are the best weapons and items in Fortnite

There is war! New developer video explains politics in Life is Feudal: MMO

Benedict Grothaus 14. March 2018 Reading time 3 minutes

The MMO of Life is Feudal is in early access and is continuously being developed. To keep players updated, developer and publisher Bitbox is constantly releasing new videos. The latest one is about an important aspect: politics.

The Life is Feudal MMO is a huge sandbox survival game that is unparalleled in size and scope. In a realistic medieval world, you fight for survival, establish cities and kingdoms, make friends, and create enemies.

With many players in close quarters, conflicts naturally arise. Larger guilds dominate smaller ones or negotiate contracts with others. Politics and war are ever-present and crucial components of the gameplay experience. The video explains how they work.

Our impressions of Life is Feudal: MMO – after 40 hours still fun!

The foundation of any politics: The Guild

To participate in world events or play a role, you need to be part of a guild. The larger the guild, the greater the influence. There are different stages of development that a guild goes through:

First Stage – Band Stage: The beginning of every journey. A few people come together to not be alone in the world. You cannot claim land and play no role in world politics.
- The suitable option for: Drifters, brigands, thieves, and strays.
Second Stage – Order Stage: Once the guild reaches 10 members, it can rise to the Order. It has no land rights, but has its own symbols and badges for permanent memberships.
- The suitable option for: Mercenaries, adventurers, and those who don’t play a big role but still want to be noticed.
Third Stage – Country Stage: The next stage is significantly larger. Countries can claim land and interact directly with other countries. They have a place in politics and are usually vassals of the next larger kingdom.
- The suitable option for: Players who want to experience village life and specialize in professions without investing too much time and effort in politics and war.
Fourth Stage – Kingdom Stage: The last and largest stage a guild can reach is the kingdom. Smaller guilds around the kingdom automatically become vassals when they form an alliance with you.

How players are making the world of Life is Feudal: MMO their own

Life is Feudal MMO Guild Monument at Night — The guild monument is the center of every guild.

Kingdoms – the centers of world politics

The guild becomes the center of the kingdom’s politics, to which all surrounding countries belong. Vassals lose their privileges in politics, which are all regulated by the kingdom. The established course must be followed – after all, life is feudal!

To not sink, the guild must remain influential and ideally keep growing. If the kingdom appoints a person as a minister to handle recruitment, it is already on a good path to becoming a world power.

Life is Feudal: MMO – without farmers, the land dies!

Life is Feudal MMO Small Town Village — Cities and villages are part of the kingdom, just like the central castle.

With bad neighbors, there is war!

Of course, it is not just the growth of a guild through new players that is important. If the space becomes too cramped, and you no longer get along with the lord across the way, the sword is the only solution left. To do so, quite bureaucratically, war must be declared.

Guild leaders can change the status of the guild with other guilds in the world through the “Standings” menu. The options are:

Ally: The guild is an ally, there is likely a dependency.
Friendly: Guild members do not attack each other; they work together.
Neutral: No cooperation or conflicts.
Hostile: Members are attacked upon encounter, but not targeted.
War: There is open war, territories are targeted.

The theory of politics sounds quite simple and straightforward. But with just a few hundred members in the alliance, coordination becomes tricky. In the end, diplomacy decides politics. How you want to fit into it is up to you!

Sea of Thieves shoots a man 60m from a cannon – World record!

Patrick Freese 14. March 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

From the Sea of Thieves cannon, David “The Bullet” Smith flew and set a new world record. Strong marketing for the Microsoft title.

With unusual marketing, one remains in the minds of many players. For example, by firing a human cannonball in real life. In the game, something like that is also possible, but significantly safer.

New World Record for Human Cannonball

On March 20, 2018, the new Microsoft title Sea of Thieves was released. To celebrate this, the Xbox team partnered with stuntman David “The Bullet” Smith. Together, they aimed to break a world record: the greatest distance traveled as a human cannonball.

On Microsoft’s streaming platform “Mixer,” the attempt could be followed live. Smith was fired from a cannon about 10 meters long named “Xbox Pirate Blaster.”

After the world record attempt, the Twitter account of Guinness World Records confirmed that the attempt was successful with a distance of about 60 meters. “Congratulations to Xbox, Sea of Thieves, and David “The Bullet” Smith on the new world record for the farthest distance for a human fired from a cannon.”

David Smith earned his nickname “The Bullet” during his eleven-year career as a human cannonball. He performed over 5000 stunts during that time.

Reference to Sea of Thieves Feature

In the upcoming pirate adventure Sea of Thieves, ships are equipped with cannons. In addition to the usual cannonballs, you can also load these heavy weapons with yourself or your allies and finally fire them.

To avoid headaches, one should not use the human cargo as an attack against ships. Instead, players can use this tactic to shoot themselves onto piles of islands or quickly reduce the distance to enemies.

Fortnite is having issues with the next patch, delaying it

Robert Albrecht 14. March 2018 Reading time 2 minutes

The patch 3.3.0 was originally scheduled to go live in Fortnite on Wednesday, March 14th. However, this will not happen. As Epic recently announced, a problem was discovered – and the release of the patch has to be postponed. What is behind this? And when will the patch arrive?

The patch scheduled for Wednesday, March 14th was supposed to bring some exciting new features to Fortnite. Among other things, it was planned to integrate the Llamas known from the PvE content into the Battle Royale mode.

Furthermore, Epic announced that remote explosives will be added to Fortnite: Battle Royale. These are supposed to make the game more diverse. As a trade-off, the smoke grenades, which are hardly used by anyone at present – are to be revised.

As Epic has now announced, the patch is postponed – but when will it arrive?

From the Reddit announcement regarding the delay of the update, it can only be read that 3.3.0 will definitely not be released on Wednesday. Thursday may now come back into focus.

It is not known how severe the problem is and whether it was triggered by a new feature. A few weeks ago, Epic acknowledged problems with the jetpack and quickly released the hunting rifle.

When the update 3.3.0 will come is currently unknown. It is also unclear whether the already announced new features will have to be set aside for the time being due to potential issues. As soon as Epic releases the details and a precise time frame, you will find out as usual from us.
