In Destiny 2 there will be some new features in PvP compared to the current Crucible. These are the changes.
At the center of the gameplay premiere and the following flood of information about Destiny 2 was primarily the PvE area of the upcoming MMO shooter: The first story mission was shown, there were insights into the new worlds, and there was a discussion about content that is best played together in a group. But what about PvP – the fight “Guardian vs. Guardian”?
First: There is some sobering news for PvP fans:
There will be no dedicated servers (priority in matchmaking should be even more focused on connection quality)
and on the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X (on all consoles) it is capped at 30 FPS. Many PvP enthusiasts would have preferred 60 FPS.
From 6v6 to 4v4 – PvP in Destiny 2
As game director Luke Smith announced, all game modes in the Crucible will be played in 4v4 format. In Destiny 1, many standard activities run in 6v6 format. Here, the number of players in Destiny 2 is reduced. Trials will also be played in 4v4 mode (this will increase the number of players). There are plans for “cool stuff” regarding the Trials, but that will be discussed later. The Trials will definitely come well ahead of the “Osiris DLC”.
By the way, there will be no private matches at launch, but these are planned for the future.
Countdown in Midtown – New PvP mode, new map
A new PvP mode is known: Countdown. In this mode, there are two teams of four players each, alternating between offensive and defensive actions. Roles are swapped after each round.
The goal of the offensive round is to place a bomb in the enemy bases. The defenders try to prevent this. Once the bomb is placed, it must be protected until it explodes. In each round, a point can be earned. The team that reaches six points first wins. However, a round can also be won by completely defeating all opponents.
To revive a teammate, a revive token must be used. The number of these is limited. Only the player who opens the ammo box receives power ammo (the ammo for the power slot, more info here), while others go empty. Power ammo spawns at regular intervals. It will be displayed which Guardian picks it up and for which weapon.
Here you see gameplay of Countdown on a new map:

The new map is called “Midtown” – in German “Innenstadt”. It is a deserted area of the last city. When the Cabal Legion took over the city, they ignored “Midtown” as this sector was not of tactical importance. Therefore, it is now used as a Crucible map.
Control in Destiny 2
The second PvP mode in Destiny 2 that is known so far is “Control”. This mode already existed in Destiny 1, but it receives updates in the sequel:
It is played in 4v4 (instead of the previous 6v6)
At the start of a control match, zones A and C are already occupied by the respective teams.
You no longer need to neutralize the zones when the opponent has them. You can capture them directly. It is sufficient for one player to stand in the zone. It does not go faster if multiple players are in it.
The flag at the control point becomes transparent when you approach it.
If you kill an opponent, you get one point. If you have two zones captured, you get two points. And if you hold all three zones, you get three points per kill. The player with 75 points wins.
Along with the new Control, a new PvP map was introduced: Endless Vale. This is a map set on the asteroid Nessus. Additionally, we already know of a PvP map on the Felwinter Peak.
Survival in Destiny 2
Furthermore, there is a new mode called “Survival”. Your team has a limited number of lives, there is no reviving by teammates and coordinated team play is important. Once all lives are spent, a round ends.
Destiny 2 divides the PvP
In Destiny 2 there are two playlists: Quickplay and Competitive Play.
In these playlists, various modes are available:
Quickplay: In this “Quick Play” playlist, there are several “party games”. These are the standard PvP modes Control, Clash, and Supremacy. Here, “casuals” can have fun playing a few nice rounds of PvP.
Competitive Play: In this playlist, there are two objective-based modes. One is Countdown and the other is Survival. Team play is particularly important here. Hardcore PvP players are targeted in this playlist.
What is the player experience in Destiny 2’s PvP?
The Guardians feel slower and heavier than in Destiny 1. The pace is reduced as a result.
Additionally, weapons deal less damage. For example, hand cannons: You now have to fire one or two more shots to defeat an opponent.
“Sticky Grenades” still exist, but they are not enough to directly eliminate a Guardian at full health. Supers remain “one-shots”. However, abilities are rarer than in Destiny 1.
Interestingly: Energy weapons deal more damage to opponents with active Supers. For instance, if the opponent activates their Dawnblade, you deal more damage with a weapon that has elemental damage (and with grenades and melee). The sounds in PvP are also adjusted: For better orientation, you can hear the footsteps of enemies (footstep sounds) or distinguish whether an ally or an enemy activates a Super.
Callouts: The names of the areas in a PvP map are displayed. This allows easier communication within the team about your location.

A cosplay amazes the fans. It’s hard to hit the Overwatch villain Doomfist better!
Due to the colorful characters of Overwatch, the game has not only built up a large fan base, but also brings forth a lot of artwork. Among the most impressive works are the cosplayers who embody the characters themselves.
In time for the upcoming ComicCon, Blizzard commissioned a cosplay of Doomfist – the next hero from Overwatch.
And the finished work is certainly impressive! In a short video by mineralblu, the striking costume is showcased. The only detail that might not be accurate is the punching power of the fist. But that’s surely just a matter of time.

Destiny 2 is coming closer. What should players know who have never played Destiny before and want to get started now? Here is our compact beginner guide with important information and tips from experienced Guardians.
On September 6, 2017, Destiny 2 was released on PS4 and Xbox One. From October 24, PC players can also dive into the once console-exclusive Destiny universe for the first time. Bungie and Activision want to target an even broader market with Destiny 2.
This means there will soon be quite a few new Guardians. To ensure that beginners – or anyone who hasn’t played Destiny for a while – can make a successful start in Destiny 2, we have everything you need to know!
Destiny is – like its sequel Destiny 2 – an MMO shooter. Specifically, this means: you fight in first-person perspective against a variety of enemies in PvE and PvP, with the online aspect, loot and progress playing an important role. Your character becomes stronger by engaging in activities that reward you with loot.
The developers at Bungie continuously take care of the game and regularly release updates, hotfixes, expansions, and sequels. Destiny 2 is the first sequel to Destiny in three years.
Destiny 2 represents a fresh start. The developers want to provide all new players with a barrier-free entry into the Destiny universe. The new villain takes away the heroes in Destiny – the Guardians – their power, weapons, and abilities. Every player, whether a newbie or a long-time veteran, starts fresh. You need to find new weapons and armor pieces, learn new abilities, and evolve back into a powerful Guardian.
What do I need to know about the story?
Although the story in Destiny 1 was one of the biggest points of criticism, as it was incoherent and confusing, quite a bit has happened in Destiny over the last three years. You can find a detailed summary of the Destiny story here. Here is the short version:
Destiny takes place in a fictional future, in a science-fiction setting at a time after the “Collapse”. The Collapse marks the end of the Golden Age.
The Golden Age, regarded as the peak of humanity (alien planets were colonized, there was rapid technological progress), was initiated with the arrival of the Traveler.
The Traveler is the mysterious, massive sphere that hovers over the last city of humanity. Very little is known about the Traveler.
The Traveler
“The Light of the Traveler” is the power through which you – the Guardians – gain your abilities. Through this light, you can be revived.
Your Ghost is responsible for this revival. Your Ghost is the talking, floating sphere that is always by your side and accompanies you in all activities. Ghosts were created by the Traveler.
Your Ghost
At the beginning of Destiny 2, the Light of the Traveler – and thus your Ghost – is taken from you. You must find both again.
In Destiny 1, the Guardians were able to hold back numerous dangers thanks to the Light of the Traveler. They fought on Earth, the Moon, Venus, Mars, and on a grave ship near Saturn.
In short: All dangers could be averted in Destiny 1 with the help of the light that the Guardians used.
Who or what do I actually fight in Destiny 2? – The Enemies
In Destiny, there are various alien races that are hostile towards you. These include:
The Fallen
The Hive
The Vex
The Cabal
and the Taken, which are special variants of the previous races.
In Destiny 2, all enemy races will encounter you. However, the focus is on the Cabal:
The Cabal are the largest known military force in the universe, and they show their true strength in Destiny 2 for the first time. The Red Legion, an elite unit of the Cabal, comes to Earth with their leader Ghaul. They are heavily armored, heavily armed, and weigh hundreds of kilograms.
In the first story mission, you see the arrival of the Red Legion on Earth. Ghaul believes that the power of the Traveler rightfully belongs to him. He aims to prove this by annihilating humanity.
To stop the Guardians – the “superheroes” in the Destiny universe – he shields the Traveler with a massive barrier. At the end of the first story mission, the Guardians lose their power. Things look grim for the Guardians and humanity. Therefore, the motto under which Destiny 2 stands is: “Welcome to a world without light.”
This results in the main campaign unfolding in such a way that you must search for new ways to regain strength, to recover your power, and to defeat Ghaul.
Ghaul
Who am I in Destiny 2? – Guardian Classes and Subclasses
In Destiny 2, you are the Guardians – the protectors of the last city and humanity, chosen by the Traveler and endowed with special abilities through its Light.
In Destiny 2, you can create your own Guardian or take over the Guardians from Destiny 1. There are three Guardian classes to choose from:
Titan: This class is aggressive in attacks and resilient in defense.
Hunter: This class focuses on agility.
Warlock: These are the “scholars of Light” who use energies to heal themselves or empower their weapons.
A Titan
Each of these classes has three subclasses, the “focuses”. Each subclass has its own abilities.
The Guardians enter battle with various weapons, armor pieces, and abilities. As abilities, the Guardian uses a grenade, a melee attack, a class ability, and a super (a devastating attack). All abilities have cooldowns and cannot be used continuously.
There are many different types of weapons. They are classified into three categories:
Kinetic Weapons – These are the standard weapons.
Energy Weapons – These weapons have various elemental damages (Arc, Solar, or Void). They are strong against enemy shields.
Power Weapons – The powerful weapons that deal significant damage.
The power of your Guardian is indicated by its level and its power level:
You increase this power by finding and equipping better weapons and armor. The higher the power, the more damage you deal and the more damage you can withstand.
Story Missions (can be played solo or in a fireteam with up to 2 other Guardians)
Strikes: 3-player group activities where you defeat many enemies and there is always a big boss waiting at the end.
Raid: 6-player group activity, which is the most challenging and intense PvE activity. There are huge bosses, jumping sections, and team mechanics.
Open World: In Destiny 2, there are four different worlds and each of them has an open game world. Here you will find public events, dungeons, side missions, and additional game content.
The PvP area of Destiny is called the Crucible. Here, the Guardians “train” in various modes and on various maps. Fans of PvP will get their fill here.
There is a quick play playlist with casual PvP modes and a competitive playlist with intense PvP modes. Read all about PvP here.
In Control mode, don’t run around madly but capture the control zones! (from Pueschi)
Don’t get discouraged in PvP. Instead, learn the maps and find the weapons that suit you (from Duke885)
Have fun (from Schlumpf-Venom)
You should know who Zavala, Ikora, Cayde-6, and Shaxx are (from EinenÜbernDurst). You will encounter these four characters directly in the first story mission of Destiny 2. Zavala, Ikora, and Cayde-6 are the Vanguard leaders who had missions for the Guardians in Destiny 1 and directed many of your missions. Together with you, they protect the Last City and the Tower – the home of the Guardians. Lord Shaxx is the overseer of the Crucible, the PvP area.
Commander Zavala
Look for nice people / a clan with whom you can play Destiny together (from Frau Holle, Markus von Nazareth, and many others)
If a Minotaur can take you down, you are too close (from Axl)
Learn not just to shoot but also to jump – there are jumping sections in Destiny (from Kakam0p)
Don’t be afraid to ask questions. Destiny has a helpful, mostly friendly, and passionate community (from Alltagsdasein). In the comments of Mein-MMO, people will gladly help you.
Take your time for Destiny 2 (from Ian C., Chariot1810, and others), especially for character creation (from dondonsilva). And just enjoy (from Erich Geiss).
Read Mein-MMO daily (recommended by many, like BFCler1988 or Destiny Man) and upvote the competent comments from KingK (from KingK)
Season 11 in Diablo 3 has started! To let you know which builds are trending, our overview provides you with the best Builds and best classes for Season 11. With a tier list.
A new season in Diablo means that everything is reset to zero. At the same time, you have the chance to secure a place in the upper ranks with your character, where only the best players can succeed.
Even though Season 11 is not affected by balance patches, new builds and strategies have emerged. As a result, the ranking of the strongest builds and classes in Diablo 3 regularly changes. For the current Season 11, we show you the strongest builds and classes here, with which you have the best chances in Greater Nephalem Rifts (English: Greater Rifts).
In particular, the Necromancer has a great influence on the new season and has catapulted himself directly to the top of the list with the Trag’ouls Corpse Lance Build. Since this build is very strong, the remaining tiers have been thoroughly shaken up to visually highlight the gap to the Necromancer.
What is the Tier List of Builds and Classes based on?
The tier list we present to you has been created by Diablo 3 expert Rhykker. It is based on data he analyzed from the NA, EU, Asia, PTR, season, and non-season leaderboards. Some builds and classes stood out as significantly stronger than others.
It is important to note that no combination of class and build in this tier list is “bad”.
Here it is about comparing which combination can complete higher Greater Nephalem Rifts. There is a difference of 15 Greater Rift levels between “Tier F” and “Tier S”. This does not mean that builds from the F-tier should not be played, but that they are the “worst of the best builds”.
All these combinations of skills and equipment (builds) can easily reach level 70 in the Greater Rift solo and thereby unlock the archetypal items that can significantly improve your equipment. To keep this list from becoming endlessly long, some builds that may fall just short of the F-tier are not listed.
Order:
S-Tier: The best solo GR builds – Considered by many to be OP builds in Diablo 3
A-Tier: Five GR levels behind S-Tier
B-Tier: Seven GR levels behind S-Tier
C-Tier: Ten GR levels behind S-Tier
D-Tier: Twelve GR levels behind S-Tier
F-Tier: 15 GR levels behind S-Tier
Note: You will often find the term “LoN” in the tier list. LoN stands for Legacy of Nightmare – This is the English name of the set bonus Legacy of Nightmares. This set bonus applies to the rings The Wailing Host and Litany of the Unhaunted. “As long as this is your only set bonus, every ancient item equipped increases your damage by 100% and reduces your damage taken by 4%.”
F-Tier Builds – Diablo 3 Season 11
Inna / Uliana Monk: The Uliana build in combination with pieces of the Inna set from the monk is still strong, but can no longer compete with the other sets of this class. If you only have the mix of Inna and Uliana set, you can play well with it, but you are better off with other sets like SunWuko. Here’s the Inna / Uliana build from D3 Planner.
LoN-Thorns Barbarian: The LoN builds are particularly hard to farm because you need the right ancient items with optimal stats. If this LoN build is not stronger than other builds where you don’t have to farm these optimal ancient items, it’s not worth the effort. While the mentioned build doesn’t deal significantly less damage, it is much harder to assemble and therefore landed in the F-Tier. Here’s the LoN-Thorns build on D3 Planner.
Invoker-Thorns Crusader: With this build, you come one step closer to the LoN-Thorns Crusader. The Invoker-Thorns build is not bad, but is overshadowed by the top builds. Compared to Season 10, this build has dropped one tier lower. Here’s the Invoker-Thorns build on D3 Planner.
Leapquake Barbarian: This build was ranked in Tier D in the last season. Unfortunately, it has dropped a level again for Season 11. It is among the strongest Barbarian builds, all of which are in the lower tiers (Sorry, dear Barbar friends). Here’s the Leapquake build from D3 Planner.
Jade Witch Doctor: Due to changes in monster density in Greater Rifts activated in an earlier patch, this build received an indirect buff. However, it still falls behind the Fire Bat build and even drops to Tier F in Season 11. Here’s the Jade build on D3 Planner.
Helltooth Gigantoid Witch Doctor: The Helltooth Gigantoid Doctor was once the strongest version of this class in earlier versions of the game. The increased monster density has allowed other builds to benefit significantly, which is why this one is only in the F-Tier (dropping from D-Tier in Season 11). Here’s the Helltooth Gigantoid build from D3 Planner.
Charge Barbarian: The Barbarian build that combines the Raekor and Immortal King set has long been one of the strongest. For Season 11, this build even drops to F-Tier. Here’s the Charge build on D3 Planner.
Inarius Necromancer: Three weeks ago, this build would have landed at least in A-Tier. Blizzard has since massively nerfed the proc rate of this build with the legendary gem Mirinae. Now the Inarius set ranks in F-Tier. Here’s the Inarius build of the Necromancer on D3 Planner.
D-Tier Builds – Diablo 3 Season 11
SunWuko Monk: This build is a weaker alternative to the LoN Monk that you can use to farm the items for the LoN LTK Monk. Parts of the equipment are used in both builds, shortening the time needed for farming. There are several play styles for the SunWuko set, such as the Wave of Light build with advantages for speedruns. The set is thus not “bad”, but is overshadowed by other sets when it comes to clearing Greater Rifts. Here’s the SunWuko build from D3 Planner.
Marauder Grenade Demon Hunter: The buff to the Marauder set before Season 10 made this build one of the strongest for the DH. At the start of Season 10, this build is downgraded to D-Tier. The Marauder Grenade build is detailed here on D3 Planner.
LoN-LTK Monk: A strong build for Monk fans, but it remains average and has even experienced a downgrade with Season 11. The reason is the LoN version, which allows for the farming of equipment only with a lot of time investment. Here’s the LTK build with LoN on D3 Planner.
Shadow Impale Demon Hunter: Compared to Season 10, this build has been corrected down by one tier. You can use this build in a group if you are deployed as DD as a Rift Guardian killer. Advantages include mobility and high toughness, allowing you to navigate through monster groups without dying like a glass cannon from every hit. The Shadow Impale build is shown here on D3 Planner.
Fire Bat Witch Doctor: With this build, you have two options with different advantages: The Helltooth variant gives you more toughness, and the Arachyr variant gives you more damage. You use Arachyr for group play (Your allies keep you alive). Here’s the Fire Bat build on D3 Planner once for the Helltooth- and the Arachyr variant.
C-Tier Builds in Diablo 3 Season 11
Roland’s Crusader: In Patch 2.5.0, the Roland set received a buff and thus a damage boost. Therefore, this build is better than the Invoker. With Season 11, this setup even rises one tier to C-Tier. But as already mentioned: The Crusader has significantly better builds that this cannot keep up with. Here’s Roland’s build with Sweep Attack on D3 Planner.
Whirlwind Barbarian: This is currently the strongest build of the Barbarian class. That it is in C-Tier does not necessarily speak well for the Barbarians. This class could certainly use more love from the developers. Nevertheless, the Whirlwind benefits significantly from the increased monster density. D3 Planner has the build from the Whirlwind Barbarian.
LoN-Daggers Demon Hunter: For a long time, this build was one of the best for the Demon Hunter. As already mentioned, it is difficult to farm your equipment for a LoN build. However, once you have the items in your inventory, you can unlock the full power. Here’s the LoN-Daggers build on D3 Planner.
LoN Bombardment Crusader: This thorns build was for some time the best Crusader build in Diablo 3. For Season 11, it drops to C-Tier. As a LoN build, it is again difficult to get the required gear until you can effectively use the combination. D3 Planner has build for you.
Thorns Pet Necromancer: The Necromancer ranks with two builds in Tier C. This build is played with the Trag’Ouls set and Land of the Dead. However, there is a significantly stronger variant with the Trag’Ouls set. The Thorns Pet build for the Necromancer can be found here.
Rathma Necromancer: The Rathma set for the Necromancer aims to be out and about with as many skeleton minions and mages as possible. The set has recently received a buff and improved significantly. You can find the Rathma build at D3 Planner.
B-Tier Builds in Diablo 3 Season 11
Inna’s EP Monk: The Inna set was buffed in Patch 2.5.0 and now deals 25% more damage than before. Because of this buff, the build was promoted from D-Tier to C-Tier. With Season 11, this build has even risen to B-Tier. The set is used as the basis for many good solo builds and needed for the role of support monk in the group. Here’s the Inna EP build on D3 Planner.
Unholy Essence with Grenade Demon Hunter: The grenade build with the UE set is the best build of the Demon Hunter. It has long been considered one of the best speed farm combinations for the Demon Hunter and has also become relevant for Greater Rifts with the addition of the grenades. Nothing has changed in the new season regarding that. The UE Grenade build is detailed here.
Firebird Archon Wizard: The wizard with the Firebird set has been at the top of the leaderboard for several patches now. You can quickly implement this build and complete the high Greater Rifts. You can find a variant of the Firebird build here on D3 Planner.
A-Tier Builds in Diablo 3 Season 11
Raiment Duo-Gen Monk: This setup is the best monk build in Diablo 3. The generator builds of the monk have been strong for some time, but the duo version is even stronger. It works a little better with the second spirit generator than the simple gen build and is thus a few GR levels ahead of the Inna Gen build. You can find the basic setup of the Raiment-Gen Monk here on D3 Planner.
Hammerdin Crusader: The “Hammerdin” is the best build for the Crusader class. With this equipment and skill setup, you have a high damage output that can get you into the top placements of the leaderboard. D3 Planner also offers you a good overview here.
LoN Spirit Barrage Witch Doctor: A new combination that has only developed in the last few months. This build is the best for the Witch Doctor and is excellent for clearing groups of large enemies. You can find details about this build at D3 Planner.
Lightning Archon Wizard: As an Archon wizard with lightning damage, you have combined the best wizard build with the second best solo build of Diablo 3 for Season 11. You can find details about this build at D3 Planner.
S-Tier Builds in Diablo 3 Season 11 – The best build for Greater Rifts
Corpse Lance Necromancer: The basis for this build is the Trag’Ouls set. In combination with the skill Alternate and Corpse Lance, the Necromancer represents the currently best solo build of Diablo 3. You can see how the skill setup looks in detail at D3 Planner.
Which class will you tackle the new season with? Let us know in the comments!
The early access version of Dark and Light has launched – but there are positive and negative sides.
Dark and Light could be compared to Conan Exiles. It is a sandbox where survival is the top priority. There aren’t great quests. You will be thrown into a specific location in the vast game world based on your chosen race and start exploring and surviving. Food plays a significant role. So you must always pay attention to eating.
Conan Exiles sends its regards
Mining resources with bare hands or tools, or even with magic, is a core element of the MMO. From these resources, you create new, more effective tools, weapons, armors, and materials for building.
If you’re thinking of Conan Exiles, you’re actually spot on. Dark and Light plays almost like Funcom’s online survival game. The further you level up, the more recipes for new objects you unlock, becoming more powerful over time with better equipment and higher attributes.
Over time, you can also build your own house as a retreat and even create entire castles or cities together with other players. An interesting aspect is that you can tame all monsters in the world and use them as companions and sometimes as mounts. The magic system is also exciting. You cast spells using wands that you need to charge with spells, and you must unlock the spells just like all craftable objects in the game.
Online or alone – you decide
Unlike Conan Exiles, you are not in a desert oasis, but in a large fantasy world populated by NPCs – and by other players if you play in online mode.
Just like Conan Exiles, it is also possible to play alone in a single-player mode or set up your own server where you determine the rules – including whether PvP is possible and how long respawn times last. On official servers, you choose between PvE or PvP. However, only about 100 players are allowed per server, which does not make Dark and Light a classic MMORPG.
The current rating of the game on Steam is mostly negative. Players criticize mainly the performance of the game, the many lags, incomprehensible game instructions, and bugs.
The general consensus is that Dark and Light is not yet in an acceptable state even for an early access game. Even on powerful PCs, the performance does not exceed 30 fps. Crashes occur frequently, graphical errors arise, and loading times can be very long. However, the developers are already working hard to improve Dark and Light.
The positive voices, even if there are currently a few, state that it is still an early access game and not significantly different or worse than Conan Exiles.
Have you had the chance to play Dark and Light? What is your opinion on the survival MMO?

Is Soldier: 76 actually an old villain from Talon? A strange hint is causing excitement among Overwatch fans.
The story of Overwatch is rich, and the different tales of heroes and villains are tightly intertwined. However, Blizzard has not really shed light on the individual connections. Time and again, we only get small details from a hero’s past. Creating a big overall picture is quite difficult.
And yet, there are a handful of details that particularly ambitious fans notice. On Reddit, user SirlickalotX compared the statements of two characters from different comics. He stumbled upon an interesting find. In the comic “Old Soldiers,” Soldier: 76 casually mentions:
“My old boss always said that there is no such thing as luck. Just good genes.” And in the latest comic “Masquerade,” we can observe the shady omnic Maximilien, who holds a leadership position in the criminal organization Talon. He says in a dialogue:
“You know that there is no such thing as luck.”
Both comics were written by Michael Chu, who is primarily responsible for the story of Overwatch and the heroes.
Some players believe that the phrasing is merely an unintended coincidence. Other fans argue that this “would be a coincidence in the real world. However, this is a narrated fictional story, and Blizzard has shown in the past that 99% of our random finds actually had a connection.” If that is true, Soldier: 76 could have quite a dark past and might have used his genetic enhancements to do plenty of evil things.
What do you think? Is it possible that Soldier: 76 has known the Talon leader Maximilien for a long time? Did he even fund Overwatch?
The beta for Destiny 2 has begun. In addition to various legendary weapons, Bungie lets us play with three exotic guns. Find out here what the weapons can do and how to get them.
When you start the (open) beta, you will quickly notice that you are not at level 1 and that there is already a vast arsenal of weapons in your inventory to try out. However, they are all of legendary quality.
To gain access to the exotic weapons, you need to complete a specific part of the first story mission: gain access to the armory.
Inside, there is an exotic weapon. Which one you get depends on the class you chose at the start. You will receive the following weapons:
Titans receive the exotic auto rifle Sweet Business
Warlocks get to enjoy the submachine gun Riskrunner and
Hunters can try out the exotic hand cannon Sunshot.
Shaxx opens the door to the armory for you
You can equip the weapons immediately and get started. It is notable that each perk is fixed. With the legendary weapons available in the beta, the sight and another perk can be chosen freely. These options are not available for the exotic ones. Whether Bungie will change this during further development remains to be seen.
The auto rifle Sweet Business
The auto rifle comes with a magazine of 99 rounds and a rate of fire of 300 rounds per minute. Since the weapon is equipped in the kinetic slot, it has no elemental damage. According to the description of the exotic perk Payday, Sweet Business has a larger magazine than other representatives of this weapon type and improved accuracy when firing from the hip.
The Polygonal Rifling is noted as a barrel optimized for recoil reduction. Stability is also increased. Furthermore, the weapon has High-Caliber Rounds, which push your opponents back more and slightly increase range. This perk is already known from Destiny 1.
According to the weapon trait “Let’s get down to business”, we get bonuses on range and rate of fire when we hold down the trigger. Additionally, ammo pickups are automatically loaded into the magazine.
The stock slightly increases stability and decreases the time it takes to ready the weapon.
The firing behavior is reminiscent of the exotic machine gun Thunderlord, especially when holding down the trigger for longer. Whether the exotic perk of the weapon is actually worth the only exotic slot is something everyone must decide for themselves – although we have had similar thoughts in the distant past about a certain rocket launcher.
For larger groups of enemies that regularly drop ammo, this weapon can be very effective. The high-caliber rounds ensure that foes are pushed back, and due to the increased rate of fire, they go down faster and ammo pickups are directly loaded into the magazine. John Rambo would have certainly appreciated this weapon.
The submachine gun Riskrunner
The exotic representative of the new weapon class of submachine guns offers a magazine of 40 rounds with a rate of fire of 900 rounds per minute. The submachine guns are comparable to the fast-firing auto rifles from Destiny 1 like Doctrine of Passing or Arminius-D.
The exotic perk “Arc Conductor” causes this weapon to become stronger when taking incoming Arc damage. Additionally, you lose less health when taking further Arc damage. Kills extend this effect further.
The barrel is called Arrowhead Brake and is designed to significantly reduce recoil and increase weapon readiness speed. The enlarged magazine, surprise surprise, provides you with a larger magazine, but the reload time increases significantly as a result.
The description of the Achieved Grip states that this weapon is particularly easy to hold and the weapon readiness speed is increased.
The weapon trait “Super Conductor” grants the chance to cause fired shots to chain lightning and return ammo to the magazine as long as the ability “Arc Conductor” is active.
With these perks, you hold the little brother of ZhaloSupercell in your hands. Unfortunately, the weapon only becomes truly interesting when you take Arc damage; this restriction is not present with the Zhalo Supercell. The weapon is also not nearly as stable as the representative from Destiny 1, and unfortunately, the range cannot compete either.
If you want to explore the true potential of the weapon, play the strike The Corrupted Vex up to the last part of the final boss fight. Stand in the white stuff at the edge of the arena (the Vex Milk), set up a healing rift (with the Warlock), and start shooting. The Vex Milk continuously causes Arc damage, which is absorbed by your rift and triggers the exotic perk of the weapon. Now you can shoot nearly indefinitely at enemies (as long as you hit anything).
The hand cannon Sunshot
The hand cannon Sunshot comes with 8 rounds in the magazine and a rate of fire of 150 rounds per minute. The exotic perk is called Sunburn and causes you to fire explosive rounds and mark hit targets.
The barrel of the weapon increases its stability and corrects the direction of recoil at the cost of weapon readiness speed. The magazine increases your range, while the grip of the weapon significantly improves weapon readiness speed and reduces stability.
The weapon trait is called Solar Explosion and causes killed enemies to explode with Solar energy.
Anyone thinking of the Fatebringer with these properties is not entirely wrong. Explosive rounds and fireball are present; only the element has changed. Sunshot plays its great strength out against groups of enemies, as the explosions damage surrounding foes.
Which exotic weapon is your favorite so far? Let us know in the comments!
The colorful coop online shooter Fortnite by Epic Games launches today, July 21, 2017, in Early Access. If you have a founder pack, you can now start the monster hunting and fortress building on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
Fortnite is a vibrant coop shooter from Epic Games, the creators of the MOBA game Paragon. However, Fortnite is not a MOBA but a team shooter where you gather resources during the day with your teammates and build a formidable fortress.
At night, hordes of monsters come to tear down your defenses. Only if you built well and shoot effectively can you survive the night.

The founder packs cost at least 39.99 euros, but there is also a hefty “Limited Edition” that costs 149.99 euros. If you have a pack, you can register your code on PC under the Epic Launcher by clicking on your account name and selecting the “Redeem Code” option.
Attention! On Xbox One, you need to purchase the founder pack in the Xbox store, and to play on PlayStation 4, your accounts must be linked. At the provided link you can find out how to link your account on Epic Games’ page. By the way, there is no Steam version; Fortnite initially runs on PC only via the Epic Games Launcher. Additionally, there is no crossplay between the platforms.
In a few hours most of us will finish work and thanks to the weekend have a few free days full of gaming fun. But what will you be playing this weekend?
This weekend, there’s plenty to do in online games again. The devilish temptation of Season 11 beckons with new grind pleasures in Diablo 3. Meanwhile, The Elder Scrolls Online has a special event for PvP, and the MOBA Gigantic has finally been released on Steam.
Games This Weekend – The Devil is Up to No Good Again
This marks the 11th time a new season starts in Diablo 3. This time even with a new hero, the grim Necromancer. So thousands of loot-hungry demon slayers are likely sharpening their axes and loading their staves with mana. As always, the new season brings juicy loot and endless grinding fun.
If you prefer PvP, then you might be happier in The Elder Scrolls Online. The online RPG from Zenimax is hosting the so-called “Mid-Year Mayhem” from July 21 to 31. In it, you earn more alliance points in PvP and can even grab a stylish laurel crown!
Games This Weekend – MOBA Fun on (Almost) All Platforms
If you’re in the mood for some fun MOBA action with colorful graphics and quirky heroes, you can also let loose in Gigantic this weekend. Motiga’s fast-paced MOBA game has been released on Steam for all planned platforms. You can now play Gigantic on Steam, via Arc, on Xbox One, and through the Windows 10 App Store – thanks to crossplay even together with players from other platforms.
What is the Editorial Team Playing?
We from the Mein-MMO editorial team are busy gaming again this weekend. The following games are on our list:
Leya is super excited about Fortnite, ever since we received a batch of review keys for the editorial team.
Schuhmann is increasingly getting lost in FF 14 Stormblood and just managed to reach level 67 last week. However, with Fortnite, there’s also a big temptation for Schuhmann.
Pokémon GO finally gets legendary Pokémon! On Saturday, they will arrive along with the GO Fest in Chicago and spread from there around the world. But you will have to work together to catch the legendary birds or dogs.
For a long time, trainers speculated what the reward of the big GO Fest in Chicago could be. Niantic has now officially confirmed that the rewards are legendary Pokémon!
This announcement came as no big surprise, as just recently, the announcement of legendary Pokémon for summer 2017 was made. In Niantic’s trailer, it was already hinted that you can only catch the legendary with teamwork.
https://youtu.be/yLaz7WBk2g4
Pokémon GO: Legendary Pokémon – When and how can I catch them?
The GO Fest in Chicago will be the starting shot for the legendary hunt! Although it is a local event in America, trainers all over the world will have to work together to unlock the legendary Pokémon.
When will legendary Pokémon be in Pokémon GO?
The GO Fest starts tomorrow on Saturday, July 22, 2017, in Grant Park, Chicago. Here, the first legendary Pokémon will appear, provided all trainers around the world work together and unlock the reward.
Night shift in Germany
The time windows when you should catch particularly many Pokémon in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland are on Saturday:
6:00 PM to 6:30 PM
8:00 PM to 8:30 PM
10:00 PM to 10:30 PM
These were the three windows for players outside of Chicago.
The most important window is on the night of Saturday to Sunday: 1:00 – 2:00 AM. But we can only keep our fingers crossed. The trainers in Chicago are working to unlock the first legendary Pokémon.
The legendary Pokémon worldwide will become available, if all goes well, on Sunday and Monday US time, probably from Sunday afternoon to early Tuesday our time. We will surely report on this again on Mein MMO.
How can legendary Pokémon be caught?
On July 22, 2017, trainers worldwide will work together to unlock the legendary reward
During the event, there will be three time windows in which you have to catch as many Pokémon as possible within 30 minutes. This will earn you bonuses like Stardust and XP, and it will also help unlock the first legendary Pokémon.
If trainers all over the world catch particularly many Pokémon in the three time windows, the medals Bronze, Silver, and Gold will be unlocked
Upon reaching the gold medal, the first legendary Pokémon will appear in Chicago at the GO Fest
If the trainers manage to defeat the legendary Pokémon in Chicago, the legendary ones will appear worldwide in Raid battles.
If an egg appears above a raid arena, you will find a legendary Pokémon there.
As soon as a dark, rare egg appears above an arena, there is a legendary Pokémon.
If you manage to defeat the legendary raid boss with your team, you will have the chance to catch the legendary Pokémon.
Legendary Pokémon can be used for battling in an arena. However, you cannot leave them as defenders in an arena. Legendary Pokémon prefer to be with you.
You must be at least level 15 to participate in a raid.
It is not yet known which legendary Pokémon will come to Pokémon GO. In the trailer, we mainly see legendary birds like Lugia and Zapdos.
A comparison between Destiny and the beta of Destiny 2 shows many similarities in the Tower, but also differences. Especially the Traveler under fire is an impressive sight.
Now, Candyland is taking a look at the comparison of Destiny to Destiny 2 and showing the different scenes in the Tower.
In Destiny 1 everything is still fine and calm. In Destiny 2 the Cabal have invaded and are laying the Tower to waste.
The Traveler – Friend that we are envied for, or enemy that we protect wrongly?
Especially impressive is an image that shows the Traveler: It is the mysterious “moon-like” structure that hovers above the Last City.
The Traveler was responsible for a golden age of humanity, leading them to the stars – unfortunately, he is probably also to blame for the downfall of humanity.
Because somehow the Traveler attracts trouble. Alien races like the Cabal envy humanity their position as “chosen people of the Traveler” and want to prove that they deserve this power much more than humanity. And they want to prove it by exterminating humanity.
Or is it all quite different and the Traveler is not the “good one” that we are envied for, but an evil force that we protect because we are blinded? Are we zombie servants of an evil power? Are we like Tom Cruise in Oblivion, who thinks he is the good one while serving the evil?
A core mystery of Destiny that has hardly been illuminated so far.
A Tower under siege
While the Traveler majestically rests in Destiny 1, in Destiny 2 it is under fire – a kind of shield seems to surround it.
This is also important for the story. Because this is not a positive shield, but an aggressive defense shield.
The Traveler is to be separated from the Guardians so they cannot benefit from the Light – that is the mysterious power that grants the Guardians their “space magic”. In Destiny 2, Guardians live in a world without Light – perhaps the biggest difference to Destiny 1.
The lead developer of ARK Survival Evolved admits that communication often falters. The community team is overwhelmed, as they also handle quality assurance and balancing.
We have often reported on how difficult it is to follow ARK Survival Evolved’s communication. Most information is shared through Twitter posts by the developers and community managers. Sometimes, lead developer Jeremy Stieglitz tweets at 2:00 AM local time before heading to bed.

However, what he tweets doesn’t count the next morning because something has gone wrong – usually the certification of a patch for PS4 or Xbox One, or there is some other issue.

These weaknesses in communication are usually harmless, but still annoying.
Generally, this results in patches arriving much later than originally announced. The “ETA” – the estimated time of arrival – is almost always exceeded, sometimes even drastically.
What was supposed to be a Wednesday one week can turn into a Tuesday the next. But most fans have long gotten used to this.
Community team quite overwhelmed
ARK faced backlash due to the price increase ahead of the imminent release on August 8. This was poorly communicated, leading to much uproar.
Stieglitz is currently on a major press tour and is talking to various outlets. He shares interesting insights.
When asked about these communication problems, lead developer Stieglitz stated in an interview: “I don’t know if we really communicated well with the player base about what is happening. To be honest, sometimes we’re not as focused on communication as we should be.”
This is because, the community team also manages quality assurance and game balancing, Stieglitz explained: “So they are quite overwhelmed,”
How this “management” exactly looks like, and how involved the community team is, he leaves open.
“Dean Hall should finish his own games first” – but it’s great that he plays ARK
With Dean Hall, who was particularly upset that ARK is released so early and at such a high price, Stieglitz apparently has no problem. While he pokes a bit and says to GameStar: “Dean Hall should finish his own games first.”
But on the other hand, he also expresses admiration for Dean Hall and his DayZ. Stieglitz finds it great that Hall played ARK and apparently enjoyed it. He hopes Hall continues to play ARK.
Sympathetic and competent, but somehow chaotic and overwhelmed
Mein MMO says: The special thing about Studio Wildcard is that their very first game became such a hit. Indie studios with a million-seller are rare. In a way, Stieglitz and his late-night tweets are relatable, and the whole studio seems fan-friendly, authentic, and approachable. Stieglitz and the ARK team must be highly skilled; otherwise, they wouldn’t be so successful.
However: The community team also manages balancing and quality assurance? That seems a bit too indie for a game of such scope as ARK Survival Evolved. This character of “brilliant but chaotic” is reflected in the game itself. Many fans would wish for: ARK to be a little less brilliant and significantly more stable in performance and “cleanliness” – especially now, as the release approaches.
The core team of ARK is said to consist of “30 something” people, according to Stieglitz. That’s too few for a game like ARK. The studio needs to grow and should have done so over the past few years.
In the PvP of Destiny 2, matchmaking places a lot of weight on connection quality. Bungie discusses the goals of player search.
What is more important to you in the player search in PvP? A good connection quality to your teammates or a balanced skill level among players? In Destiny 1, this topic often led to heated discussions in the community, and Bungie occasionally adjusted the balance between these two components.
How Bungie handles this in Destiny 2 is revealed by the crucible design lead Lars Bakken.
The player search aims to fulfill two goals
According to Bakken, there are two design principles for the crucible in Destiny 2:
They want to provide a great experience for players who enjoy competitive PvP activities.
They want to ensure that players have fair and enjoyable PvP matches
To achieve these goals, there are some changes to matchmaking compared to Destiny:
First: All PvP matches are played in 4v4 format.
There are two playlists – for fast, fun games and for competitive games.
Matchmaking places a greater emphasis on connection quality.
But skill is still an important component in finding worthy opponents.
In the beta, the two PvP playlists use the same matchmaking settings. But at the launch of Destiny 2, it will be possible to adjust these individually.
By the way: Your skill will also be tracked individually for each PvP playlist.
Bakken summarizes: They always want to ensure that the connection is solid. However, they also look to make sure that the matches are as fair as possible.
Bungie announces at the end of this statement that this is the first discussion about Destiny 2’s crucible matchmaking, but it certainly won’t be the last.
What is your opinion on the PvP player search in the beta of Destiny 2?
You can find our preview report on the PvP of the “Destiny 2” beta here:
Online role-playing games should last as long as possible and are constantly updated and revised. But sometimes the technology behind them is too old and the games need to be completely re-released. But what would such remakes look like, and which games would you like to see a new version of?
As a developer, you can keep a game modern for a long time through clever updates, but eventually, the age shows, and a game starts to feel old. The graphics are outdated, the combat system is old-fashioned, and the gameplay no longer meets the latest standards. In such a case, a remake would be desirable.
For example, like with The Secret World, which was unnecessarily clunky in its original form. In the more accessible remake version Secret World Legends, the mystery MMO is therefore – at least for me – more fun.
What would classics like WoW or Ultima Online look like as remakes?
There are still some venerable games that are still played but are starting to look old. One such game would be World of Warcraft. The MMORPG classic from Blizzard has evolved massively, and especially the graphics have been renewed multiple times in recent updates.
But how long can that last? Can the developers keep the aging game fresh for more years? Or wouldn’t it be better if Blizzard completely renewed the game? And what would such a WoW 2.0 look like? Would it have a modern action combat system or would it still have the classic tab-targeting?
The same goes for other MMO classics like Ultima Online, Everquest, or even the discontinued Star Wars Galaxies? Wouldn’t it be cool to have a Star Wars sandbox game with the gameplay and graphics of Black Desert Online? Let us know in the comments your thoughts on potential remakes of well-known online role-playing games!
In PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds up to 100 players are dropped over a lonely island. There, they must find weapons and kill each other until only one remains. But what happens if, due to an error, all players are dropped at the same time and have no weapons?
The great appeal in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is based on the fact that you fight for survival alone (or as a team) against dozens of other players. You frantically search abandoned buildings for weapons, clothing, and medical supplies.
At the same time, you try to kill as many opponents as possible while the play area gets smaller and smaller. But what happens if this part simply falls away and all players land at once and have no weapons?
Every round in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds begins with all players sitting in an airplane and eventually exiting via parachute somewhere on the map. Those who wait too long will be automatically ejected by the end of the flight.
In a curious case due to a server lag, however, not a single player could exit. Therefore, almost 100 players were violently thrown out of the plane all at once. Since almost everyone was still paralyzed by the lag, they all landed almost in the same spot.
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds – The biggest brawl in the world!
It didn’t take long for the players freed from the lag to start beating their unfortunate fellow players into a pulp with their fists. Within a minute, the number of players had almost halved, and the few survivors rushed into the bushes to maybe find a weapon after all.

In Black Desert Online recently introduced the Mystic as the female version of the Martial-Arts fighter Striker. Now the developers have released a trailer and details about the story behind the wild martial artist.
Black Desert Online has a strict gender lock that assigns most classes to a specific gender. However, there are usually alternative versions that have the opposite gender and serve a similar role. For example, the Warrior and the Valkyrie or the Ninja and the Kunoichi.
Recently, the Martial-Arts fighter Striker was introduced, and its female counterpart – the Mystic – is not far behind.
Black Desert Online – Being a Blonde is Not Easy
Now there are first official details about the Mystic. For example, her origin is explained. She comes from a war-torn village in Calpheon. There, she was found by a wandering Kung-Fu master who took her to the east where she learned the martial art.
However, the people in the east envied her success and discriminated against her because of her blonde hair and blue eyes. Only when another blonde giant arrived did the Mystic feel safe and finally had a training partner. But then her friend suddenly disappeared, and the Mystic set off to look for him.
Black Desert Online – Mystic – Focus on Footwork
In addition to this cheesy backstory, there is a trailer video where you can see the Mystic’s moves. Unlike the Striker, she relies more on her legs and delivers powerful kicks.
https://youtu.be/D-AUBBd7vCk
Additionally, she can break through enemy lines with shoulder charges and stun them. Ideal for setting up devastating combos. Like the Striker, the Mystic can also use particularly strong combinations to maximize damage. Check out the trailer and convince yourself of the Mystic’s martial arts.
When we will be able to play the new heroine here in the West is still unclear. For now, players in Korea will get their chance first, but the Western release shouldn’t be too far away.
Today Xur is coming to Destiny. Where is Xur on July 21st, what items does he have on offer? Location and inventory.
In the MMO shooter Destiny, everything is currently focused on the beta of Destiny 2. Curious players are checking out this test version to see which direction their future Guardian career will take. While much has been well received, the community still has some issues.
Tonight at 7 PM, all players on PS4 and Xbox One with an internet connection can join the beta. The open beta period begins. You can find all the info in the provided link.
Xur is not bothered by this beta phase at all. He will still reliably come to the Guardians this weekend to collect your Strange Coins. Let’s greet him together.
All info about Xur in Destiny on July 21st, 22nd and 23rd on PS4 and Xbox One
Xur will arrive today at 11 AM. He will choose one of his favorite spots where he loves to spend the weekends and show you his inventory there. On Sunday, July 23rd, he will leave again at 11 AM.
Where is Xur? Location today
Xur has specific positions in the Tower and the Reef where he likes to hang out. This time he is in the Tower – by the Speaker on the balcony.
Weapon packages: Shaming with Sapas Mons and Nemesis Star for 30 coins and 25 Silver Dust each
Titan: Thagomizer – Gloves with 40 Intellect and 40 Strength
Hunter: Weakhead Radar – Helmet with 39 Intellect and 40 Strength
Warlock: The Ram – Helmet with 46 Intellect and 42 Strength
All armor pieces cost 13 coins.
Legacy Engram: Helmet for 29 coins.
Many players in the “Destiny 2” beta complain that the Guardians are too weak in PvE and that the focus is too much on primary weapons. Bungie has now commented on this:
The most hated Orc of Azeroth enters the Nexus of Heroes of the Storm. Warchief Garrosh is coming!
Stukov has settled into the Nexus and has already caused some funny scenes with his long arm. It’s about time to talk about the next hero of HotS. As the developers announced on Twitter, it will not be a Peon (which some speculated after the “Orgrimmar” teaser), but the former Warchief of the Horde: Garrosh Hellscream.
If you look back at the long history of Warcraft, there are few villains who are truly hated by a large part of the community. Lich King Arthas is popular, Banshee Queen Sylvanas as well, and even Medivh, who caused the whole mess, is highly regarded by the fans.

But an Orc who simply wanted to be an Orc is hated: Garrosh Hellscream, son of Grommash Hellscream and former Warchief of the Horde.
Since he was the epitome of an angry warrior in World of Warcraft, he will likely take on the role of an Assassin in Heroes of the Storm. However, like Varian before him, he may also be a “multiclass” hero, able to switch between Tank and Assassin through talent choices.
Garrosh was the leader of the Horde during World of Warcraft: Cataclysm and led ruthless conquest campaigns. He used weapons of mass destruction (like the mana bomb in Theramore) against civilians and ultimately “cleansed” the Horde by impaling traitors on the city walls of Orgrimmar. Ultimately, he became completely possessed by the heart of the Old God Y’Shaarj. During his trial, he fled to the alternate Draenor, where he was ultimately killed by Thrall in a duel.
Are you looking forward to Garrosh? Or are you actually so over this Orc?
