What is the TOTW in FIFA 17?

Every Wednesday, EA Sports reveals the Team of the Week in the “Ultimate Team” mode of their annual football simulation, including FIFA 17. Players who performed outstandingly in real football during the past week are rewarded with special cards that possess enhanced attributes.

You can draw the TOTW cards within a week from those sets that may contain rare (gold) players. However, the chances of this happening are considered low. Additionally, it is possible to buy them on the transfer market if they are offered by other players. However, the prices are usually extremely high.

Overwatch: Is it easier to save PotGs? – Will this feature come?

Fans have been waiting a long time to be able to save their PotGs more easily in Overwatch . This was promised months ago.

If you make a particularly cool play in Overwatch and earn the “Play of the Game,” it is currently difficult to share that with the world. While the last 5 “Play of the Game” moments are saved in Overwatch (on PC), once the game is over, the recordings are gone. This is quite cumbersome, as you first have to start Fraps, Shadowplay, or a similar recording program to create the video clips and then upload them to YouTube.

Saving Play of the Games as a Feature

Overwatch Cortyn POTG

Many months ago, fans complained and wished that Blizzard would finally introduce a feature to permanently save the “PotGs” and export them directly from the game.

The topic has now been brought up again in the official forum, asking whether it has simply been forgotten or if it is still on Blizzard’s agenda. The response came – as always – promptly from Jeff Kaplan, the Game Director of Overwatch:

“This is the current focus of our feature team (a smaller development team within the Overwatch team). The team is working very hard on this and has been for months. Expect more details early this summer.”

“Early this summer” probably means in about 2-3 months, so in the next major patch coming up for Overwatch.

How are you currently saving your “Play of the Game” moments? Or do you not care about this feature?


Have you ever wondered why Overwatch is not lip-synced?

WoW: Finally – after 6 months the Arsenal is live again

After a long wait, WoW players can finally access the Arsenal again. There are also a few new features.

WoW Arsenal Paladin Blood Elf

With the launch of the “Legion” expansion, Blizzard began radically redesigning the website for World of Warcraft. Once the basic framework was established – including news, forums, and account management – it became clear that many features were still not implemented. After almost half a year, Blizzard has finally reactivated the Arsenal and updated it to the latest standards.

The Arsenal lists all characters from World of Warcraft, as long as they have been active at least once in the last few months and have reached level 10. In addition to the character’s current equipment, many other pieces of information can also be obtained there. What achievements has a player already completed, and when did they earn them? Which mounts are in their collection? Which raid bosses have they defeated, and at what difficulty level?

Especially raid guilds looking to recruit new players can quickly get an overview of a player’s “career” and current status.

However, there is also criticism of the Arsenal. Many players complain in the comments that there is no way to view the chosen PvP talents of a character, making it harder to understand the strategies of rivals and idols.

WoW Arsenal Rufbalken
The reputation of each character can even be viewed.

Some other players are dissatisfied that they cannot disable the Arsenal for their characters. They do not want others to see when they completed certain achievements and at what times they played, and they refer to this as the “glass player” phenomenon.

Do you use the Arsenal, or was it one of the features you didn’t really miss?


With Vol’jin, by the way, there is still more to come – his legacy has more space for story.

WoW: The Spring Balloon Festival – A Balloon Ride Across Azeroth!

In World of Warcraft, the Spring Balloon Festival is calling. If you need a few minutes of relaxation, make sure to secure a spot!

Currently, one of the new micro-holidays is taking place in World of Warcraft again. The Spring Balloon Festival has arrived in Azeroth for a few days and entices with various balloon rides starting all over Azeroth. Just open your world map and look for the little red X marks. Hot air balloons are ready for departure there. Speak with the respective NPC and wait until two other players have joined.

WoW Balloon Festival Suramar Tour 1

Afterwards, you will experience a tour over the respective area. The NPCs try to engage players in conversations – and sometimes even respond to your answers! They ask you questions like “What do the Nightborne feed on?” and depending on your correct answer, the dialogues change a bit.

Make new friends at the Spring Balloon Festival in WoW

The Spring Balloon Festival takes place from May 10 to May 12 at midnight. If you want to experience the tours, you should hurry.

There are no achievements or rewards in the form of items for participating in the balloon rides. However, you might be lucky and find new players who will soon appear on your friends list.

WoW Balloon Festival Suramar Tour 2

Cortyn says: I must honestly admit that I am completely thrilled by the balloon festival. The flights are entertaining and beautiful. The NPCs continually try to encourage the players, and just a little bit of “pseudo-roleplay” has really lightened the atmosphere and created some fun conversations with strangers that I would never have experienced otherwise. I can only recommend every player to participate in the balloon rides while they are available. More of such mini-events, please, Blizzard!


Fans of Vol’jin can breathe a sigh of relief – there’s more story about the former Warchief!

Pokémon GO: Kommt demnächst ein Feuer-Event? Wir glauben: Ja!

A possible fire event could soon start in Pokémon GO. What bonuses and rewards should there be at the fire event?

In recent days, players in Pokémon GO have noticed an increase in Grass-type Pokémon. This was related to the “Global Blooming,” which was active as a special Grass-type Pokémon event in the game. Now, after the event has ended, the community is thinking about the next event. A possible successor could be a fire event, representing another starter Pokémon type after Grass and Water. However, there are no hints from Niantic regarding another type event yet.

Charmander and Cyndaquil at the start of summer 2017

A fire event at the start of summer would be fitting. We and other trainers in the community speculate that an event featuring Fire-type Pokémon would be a logical successor. Conveniently, the start of summer on June 21 is about six weeks away. This would align with the intervals of the last two events, which were also about six weeks apart.

Let’s briefly summarize the previous element events:

  • The Water event (Water Festival) started on March 22, 2017, and raised the chances for Squirtle, Croagunk, and other Water-type Pokémon, as well as a Magikarp hat.
  • The Grass event (Global Blooming) started on May 5, 2017, about six weeks after the Water event. It raised the chances for Bulbasaur, Chikorita, and other Grass-type Pokémon, as well as extended the duration of lure modules.
    Pokémon Go Bulbasaur Squirtle Charmander

After Grass and Water already utilized two elements of the typical starter monsters in Pokémon, Fire would be the next logical step: Even in the 1st Pokémon generation on the Gameboy, trainers could choose between Bulbasaur (Grass), Squirtle (Water), and Charmander (Fire). The starter Pokémon of the 2nd generation are Chikorita, Croagunk, and Cyndaquil, corresponding to the same types as the selection of the 1st generation. This trend continues through all generations.

And the theme of “Fire” would somehow fit the summer…

Possible bonuses of the fire event

Pokémon GO

If such a fire event is really planned and implemented by Niantic, then several bonuses would be possible: There could be increased spawn chances for Fire-type Pokémon like Charmander and Cyndaquil. Other Fire-type Pokémon like Growlithe or Ponyta could also appear more frequently in the wild during the active event.

As appropriate bonuses, there would be many possibilities in the game. An extension of the duration of lure modules could help trainers complete their collection faster. A bonus for candy rewards would certainly please some trainers, as they could evolve Pokémon faster.

For a fire event in Pokémon GO, there are many possibilities that the developers could implement. Now we have to wait and see if Niantic really plans such an event. There is no official info yet. But we believe: Yes, it is definitely conceivable. And the start of summer would be a good date for that.

Lineage 2 Revolution: The 1st complex online MMORPG for mobile?

Lineage 2 Revolution is an online role-playing game for mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones. So just a silly pastime? Not at all! Read here why this mobile MMORPG could also be interesting for core gamers.

When thinking of mobile games, many people here primarily think of small casual games like Candy Crush Saga, Pokémon GO, or Clash Royale. Or even the good old Snake on the Nokia 3310! However, when it comes to complex online role-playing games like World of Warcraft or Black Desert Online, they think less about the term “mobile.”

But with the upcoming mobile MMORPG Lineage 2 Revolution, this way of thinking could soon change.

https://youtu.be/9-sz9pJXsVE

Great graphics thanks to Unreal 4 Engine

Lineage 2 Revolution is, according to various reviews and reports from South Korea, not a pixelated mini-game. Rather, it matches many PC titles in terms of graphics and sound, which is partly due to the use of Unreal 4 Engine.

lineage 2 revolution 03

This makes the game look like a glossy MMO even on smartphones or tablets. The immense success of the game, which generated over 170 million US dollars in Korea after just one month, speaks for the quality of the work.

Good graphics have of course existed on mobile devices before, just think of the MOBA Vainglory or the MMO HIT. However, unlike HIT, which is more of a quick dungeon crawler for in-between, Lineage 2 Revolution is a full-fledged online role-playing game.

Lineage 2 Revolution – A full-fledged MMORPG – On the smartphone!

Lineage 2 Revolution is essentially a mobile adaptation of the successful Lineage 2 from PC. It takes place in the same world, builds on the same story, and uses the familiar races of humans, (dark) elves, and dwarves. Playable classes include warriors, rangers, and mages.

Unlike the original Lineage 2 on PC, you can also switch characters during gameplay and continue playing with the dwarf warrior or the dark elf mage. Also cool: You can customize your heroes visually at any time, equipping them with new clothes, hairstyles, animations, and attack moves.

In keeping with the template, Lineage 2 Revolution also offers additional MMORPG features:

  • A vast game world to explore
  • Thousands of players online simultaneously
  • Dungeon and raid instances
  • Group formations
  • Guilds
  • Main and side quests, some of which can only be completed with a guild or group
  • Marketplace
  • PvP, guild battles, and sieges
  • Crafting

Blessing or curse? The auto-play feature

The controls of Lineage 2 Revolution are said to work smoothly and intuitively without a mouse and keyboard, according to reviews. Players are always in the “flow” and experience fluid and engaging action gameplay.

lineage 2 revolution 01

However, Lineage 2 Revolution has another feature that may not be embraced by all players but is undeniably useful: the auto-play.

lineage 2 revolution 01

At the push of a button, you can put your hero on autopilot. Then your champion grinds on its own, and you can watch or put your smartphone away. “That’s silly! I want to play my game myself!” some gamers might say. But considering that Lineage 2 Revolution is often played on the go, such a feature is undeniably useful.

For example, when you meet a friend while out and don’t want to be rude. Just turn on auto-play and let it grind for a bit while you enjoy a beer with your buddy. Also, the auto-play is optional, and anyone wanting to maximize their potential should actively play and not rely on autopilot.

Lineage 2 Revolution – Definitely worth a look

According to many reports from Korea, Lineage 2 Revolution comes very close to the experience of a “real” online role-playing game. It includes a ton of MMORPG features and offers a direct reference to Lineage 2. Therefore, every MMORPG fan with a good mobile device should download Lineage 2 Revolution from the app store of their preferred mobile platform in June 2017 (so the current release plan in the West) and give it a try.

Also interesting: ArcheAge Begins is also said to provide a high-quality mobile MMORPG experience.

Star Wars Battlefront 2: Three Times Larger than Part 1 – EA Aims for 14 Million Sales

Electronic Arts has high hopes for the upcoming online shooter Star Wars Battlefront 2 and expects extremely high sales numbers.

During a conference call with investors, EA’s CEO Andrew Wilson stated that Star Wars Battlefront will offer approximately three times as much content as its predecessor. Additionally, a robust live service plan has been developed, which they wish to discuss at the EA Play event. In addition to a single-player campaign that many players desired, new game modes, locations, characters, and vehicles will be included.

Battlefront Trooper
EA aims to sell at least 14 million copies of the shooter

Chief Financial Officer Blake Jorgensen mentioned that they expect to sell at least 14 million copies of the game by the end of the fiscal year on March 31, 2018. This number was achieved with the predecessor. They want to sell more versions of the successor.

Fans need to be convinced first

star wars battlefront 2 space battle

Those are ambitious goals. The question is whether EA can achieve them. Star Wars Battlefront was one of the most anticipated games of its time, but it did not convince in the reviews.

The game faced considerable criticism. For example, for the lack of a single-player campaign and the relatively low replay value. EA will have to convince the fans who were disappointed by the first part to buy the successor as well.

How good Star Wars Battlefront 2 is will be revealed on November 17, when the online shooter is released for PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.

Nur für Erwachsene! 10 MMOs und Multiplayer-Spiele ab 18 Jahren im Jahr 2021

Not every game is suitable for younger gamers. Certain content, such as excessive violence or sexual content, is intended for adults only. Multiplayer games are no exception in this regard. We have looked at 10 online games rated 18 and older.

In our overview, we present to you some games rated 18 and older, based on the state of 2021.

Update: In the meantime, we have a new list of games rated 18 and older for you, which is based on the state of 2022.

GTA 5 Online Bikers
GTA 5 Online

The online mode of the immensely popular action game GTA 5 from Rockstar Games is full of blood. Since there is also a ragdoll effect where killed enemies twitch when you keep shooting them, GTA 5 meets the criteria for a game rated “18 and older” very well. Additionally, it is possible to kill defenseless pedestrians.

A brutal world

Therefore, GTA Online is not a game that children should play. Rockstar Games aimed to create a realistic gaming world and showcase the brutality that plays a role in gang life. They succeeded admirably. However, this came at a price: GTA 5 – and thus the online mode – received an adult rating.

In the game, you experience heists, gunfights, and chases with friends in a team and can expand your vehicle collection by buying new cars.

On the next page, you’ll find another online game that deserves a USK rating of 18.

Mecker Mittwoch: WoW – Questdesign aus dem letzten Jahrtausend

Cortyn feels slowly mocked by WoW. The weekly missions are a bad joke.

I know, I know. By now, some of you are fed up with me getting worked up about World of Warcraft. But it needs to be said one last time – at least for this month.

Basically, I think the idea of stretched content is quite good. It feels nice when you get a new quest line every week, instead of having “slogged through” all the content on the first weekend and then sitting dry for months.

WoW Broken Shore Sentinax Lieutenant

But what World of Warcraft did with Patch 7.2 really makes me angry. The beginning of Patch 7.2 was still quite alright. There were several quests, a few exciting contents for the Order campaign, and new companions. “Everything is fine,” one would say.

WoW: Filler Quests with No Story

But for almost 3 weeks, I feel completely mocked by World of Warcraft.

  • First, for a quest you had to collect 100 Sentinax Tokens – basically a “Kill 100 elite demons or a few bosses” quest.
  • Last week, 10 world quests were to be completed.
  • This week, I am supposed to kill 100 demons that are lurking somewhere at the proverbial “end of the world”.

This is a quest design I only know from very, very dark “Silkroad” days.

WoW Thomael Evil

Or to put it bluntly: For almost a month, the new quests of World of Warcraft have absolutely no story content left. They are mindless “filler” quests, where I actually wonder if those at Blizzard are playing the “You would never dare” game, where a particularly tough developer repeatedly proves that they do dare.

Honestly, I’m hesitant to even check the database on wowhead to see what the glorious quest next week could be. Because I am slowly reaching a point where I am really considering disappearing from Azeroth for a few weeks. At least the weekly quests of the “Tomb of Sargeras campaign” are not worth it right now.

But okay. That should be enough for now regarding World of Warcraft. Fortunately, a new killer in Dead by Daylight is coming out tomorrow – that should certainly provide some fun or a lot of frustration…


Last week it was about the addiction to likes, upvotes, and general recognition.

GTA 5 Online: 11-Jähriger kauft gebrauchtes GTA V, bekommt Meth

This could have ended badly: An 11-year-old boy bought a used GTA 5 and found a package of meth in the game’s box.

When Kayla McAllister’s eleven-year-old son came to her and asked what the package was, the mother from Florida must have felt very differently. Because in the packaging of GTA 5, which they had previously purchased used at a GameStop store, the boy found a package with questionable content. After the police were called, the suspicion was confirmed: The substance in the package was methamphetamine.

Drugs were hidden in the manual

As Kotaku reports, Kayla McAllister was with her son on Sunday, May 7, at a GameStop store to exchange old games. They purchased a used version of Grand Theft Auto V there. To pass the long wait usually involved in installing GTA 5, her son flipped through the game’s manual. That’s when he found the package of drugs.

On Facebook, Kayla McAllister writes: “Today I was in GameStop in Tallahassee with my son to trade in old games and get new ones. When he opened the booklet of one of the used games, my 11-YEAR-OLD SON found this: A package with fucking meth. Obviously, the game wasn’t properly checked when it came into the store, and because of this negligence, I could have lost my child. Luckily, he brought the package straight to us and asked what it was”

GTA 5

After the parents saw the package, they called the police. They conducted a test of the white substance and confirmed that it was meth.

Similar incident already in September

A very similar situation occurred last year: In September 2016, another eleven-year-old boy from Louisiana bought a used game in a GameStop store that also contained a bag of meth.

Because these stories sound so similar, Kayla McAllister received messages accusing her of having “stolen” the story. She says that she wasn’t aware of any other incident of this kind until now. Now she is even angrier at GameStop, because they allowed this story to repeat itself.

The children could have died

If the son hadn’t immediately brought the bag to his parents, much worse could have happened. The three-year-old daughter of McAllister also lives in the household. “I couldn’t sleep at all.” While going through her son’s games, the daughter could have found the drugs, and this story might have turned out differently. “She could have died and I would have to ask myself for the rest of my life where the drugs even came from,” says McAllister.

GameStop contacted the mother after this incident and offered her a replacement video game.

However, the mother does not want to have anything to do with this company anymore and refused the “offer”. The moral of the story, McAllister writes on Facebook: “Please check all used games you buy. Just the thought that something so crazy could happen to one of my children drives me crazy. So PLEASE PLEASE, CHECK EVERYTHING.”

In response to a request from Kotaku, GameStop wrote that they deeply regret the incident and are working with local law enforcement to assist them in the investigation.

The Division: PTS ends today! – When is the release of update 1.6.1?

In The Division, the PTS phase for update 1.6.1 is coming to an end. Nothing stands in the way of the release now.

Today, on May 10th, at 12 o’clock our time it is over! The public test servers, the PTS, will be shut down. The testing phase for update 1.6.1 will then be over, and Massive can begin to prepare everything to finalize the patch and release it in a timely manner.

There is still no concrete release date. Massive has repeatedly emphasized in recent weeks that they expect to meet the planned May release. We assume that more detailed information will be announced tomorrow during the “State of the Game”.

When can we expect update 1.6.1 on PS4, Xbox One, and PC?

In the history of the shared-world shooter The Division, there have been two PTS phases so far:

  • The first test servers were launched for Update 1.4 in autumn 2016. They ended on October 18th, and just a week later the update went live on all platforms.
  • The second PTS took place for update 1.6. This ended on February 10th. It took about two weeks for the update to appear in the live game.
    division-aussicht

Therefore, for update 1.6.1, we now assume that it will also take 1-2 weeks before it appears on PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Updates are always released on Tuesdays, which is why these dates are possible:

  • May 16 – This date may come too soon. After all, the patch must first undergo the certification process of Sony and Microsoft.
  • May 23 – This date is likely to be it.
  • May 30 – The latest date if Massive wants to meet “May”.

What does update 1.6.1 bring?

Update 1.6.1 is primarily a “Quality of Life” update, meaning that Massive will fix numerous bugs and tweak the balance a bit to make agents’ lives more enjoyable. For example, the Agile Talent and the seeker mine will be revised.

The biggest new feature is the Loadouts feature, which has been long requested by agents. This allows you to save your builds and quickly switch between them.

Additionally: The worst exotic will be removed and the inventory will be expanded!

The developers of Dead by Daylight have let quite a big cat out of the bag. The next chapter – which in Dead by Daylight is a new DLC – will be released in just a few days and will bring both a new killer and a brand-new survivor. Additionally, there is a new map that differs significantly from the previous maps.

The Doctor is inspired by Chinese horror stories and could easily have escaped from the horror title Outlast. He has two “stances” that make life difficult for the survivors.

  • In the “Punishment” mode, he can swing his metal rod and injure survivors.
  • In the “Treatment” mode, he has an aura that fills all nearby survivors with madness. Madness builds up slowly, persists for a while, and triggers different effects.

As a result, survivors sometimes receive audio notifications that the killer is right behind them, even though he is on the other side of the map. Also, the skill checks no longer appear in the middle of the screen but somewhere else. And mad survivors scream from time to time, revealing their position.

Dead by Daylight: New Survivor Feng Min

The new survivor Feng Min is Chinese and is actually part of an eSports team in the story – but now, she is somehow trapped in the Entity’s nightmare. Her perks ensure that she makes less noise when repairing a generator, can reverse failed skill checks, and receives a small speed burst when climbing over an object.

New Map: The Doctor’s Hospital

Additionally, there is a fresh map, namely The Doctor’s Hospital. It is the first map that takes place entirely inside a building and features many tight rooms that all look very similar. You should never feel safe and always be afraid that the killer might be lurking behind the next archway.

Dead by Daylight Doctor Searching

The chapter “Spark of Madness” will be released on May 11 on Steam and costs $6.99 – the Euro price will likely be similar.

By the way, Dead by Daylight will also be released on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in the future.

Cortyn says: And that makes the plan “you won’t spend much on games this month” fail again. I’m really excited about the new killer and the map – only the new survivor doesn’t appeal to me, her perks all seem boring in my eyes. But maybe the first impression is misleading.


Ever had a situation where the killer is scared and not the survivors? Then check out the Cult of Dwight …

Dylan: EA confirms – Bioware is making a game like Destiny or The Division

The project Dylan by Bioware was recently the topic of an investor call by EA. The game is expected to be released in 2018 or 2019. It is said to be a competitor to Destiny and The Division.

It is a bit strange when games are postponed that we hardly know anything about. A few weeks ago, we already reported on “Dylan”. This is an action game that Bioware is working on, the same Bioware that was responsible for the original “Mass Effect” trilogy.

The leaks suggesting that “Dylan” will be a semi-MMO now seem to be confirmed. EA talks about a “live service” component in Bioware’s new IP.

Bioware game resembles Destiny or The Division – Release 2018/2019

There have already been “leaks” regarding the new Bioware brand, stating: Dylan is a “semi-MMO”, similar to Destiny or The Division. It has been in development for 4 years, is expected to be presented at E3, and is set to be released in 2018.

EA has essentially confirmed this information now. It was said: We are postponing the new Bioware IP to the next financial year. This means it would be released between April 2018 and May 2019.

Thus, it is basically confirmed what everyone expected: The thing will not be released in 2017, but is at least a year away.

destiny-vs-division-0612-1
EA says: New IP is developing well, “Live Service” is the focus

It continues: The new IP is developing very well. EA is very satisfied with the progress. The game has a great design, and the game mechanics are excellent.

The most important thing EA says: The game is built around a “live service”. It is intended to be a “games-as-a-service” game. They have decided to focus even more on “social design”. This is why the launch has been delayed.

They want to emphasize this “live service” component more strongly.

Sounds like the game has been retrofitted to be “Destiny-like”

Mein MMO thinks: If we combine these statements with the leaks, it sounds like the game has been in development since 2012 and because Destiny was such a success starting in 2014, EA decided to shift their new action game more towards a “semi-MMO”. This, of course, takes longer. One can be curious about what exactly happens and what the game looks like.

Perhaps we will learn more about “Dylan” at E3 or later at Gamescom.

FIFA 17: 60 neue Spieler – Diese Karten sind neu im Ultimate Team

“New” cards are not uncommon in the “Ultimate Team” mode. Every week, 23 new player cards are added due to the regular TOTW. However, these are special cards of players already in FUT. Now, new players have been added.

TERA: Der reichste Spieler könnte Bill Gates in die Tasche stecken

On its 5th birthday, TERA throws out statistics. If its gold were real, the richest player in the world could buy a lot.

In America, En Masse is currently celebrating the 5th birthday of TERA, and as expected, some statistics must be brought to the table that reveal how many crazy things the players of TERA have already accomplished.

To ensure that such statistics are well received, some particularly striking numbers are needed. Developers also like to resort to some thought experiments, as long as the end result looks convincing.

An example? The richest player in TERA currently possesses 80,000,000 gold coins. If that were real gold, it would be worth 102,768,000,000$. This would easily surpass Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, and Mark Zuckerberg.

TERA: Elin most popular race

With other data, more can be made. The Elin are still the most popular race with nearly 4.2 million created characters.

The gender distribution is somewhat unexpected. “Only” 56.1% of all characters are female. This is an astonishingly low number considering that some classes are only available for female characters.

Tera 5 year Info

The total playtime of all characters combined is almost 30,000 years – that’s quite a significant amount that one shouldn’t be ashamed of.

In general, one can say that TERA looks back on a successful past. After switching to a free-to-play model in 2013 and later launching on Steam, the MMORPG is developing well. Here’s to 5 more years – during which there will definitely be many new female classes.


Our boss is tired of the female classes – he feels discriminated against.

Pokémon GO Update: 0.63.1 Patch Notes – Medal Change

The new Pokémon GO update 0.63.1 Android / 1.33.1 iOS is now rolling out and will soon be available to you. We will show you what is changing.

A new patch for Pokémon GO has been announced, which according to the patch notes makes some minor changes to the game. This includes a new language in the game and a change to the medal system. The update 0.63.1 for Android and 1.33.1 for iOS is now rolling out and will therefore be released gradually for different countries and regions.

It is currently not possible to say exactly when the update will be available in Germany.

Patch Notes 0.63.1 Android / 1.33.1 iOS / APK

Another language has been added to the new Pokémon GO version and the distance to the next rank of the medals is now easier to see, at least according to the patch notes released by the developers for version 0.63.1.

  • Now with language support PT-BR (the abbreviation stands for “Brazilian Portuguese”)
  • If you click on a medal, the distance to the next level of that medal will be displayed.
Pokemon GO

The 0.63.1 APK of Pokémon GO is being actively examined by experts and checked for further changes. Perhaps data mining will reveal that there are more hidden changes that we can look forward to.

Bug Fixes?

Pokémon GO has had some vulnerabilities lately, which hopefully will be fixed with the new update. For example, the display of the tracker often appears white or empty and shows no Pokémon nearby. It takes a few seconds for this display to be filled with monsters again.

Another problem exists at least on iOS devices in connection with Pokémon GO Plus. The app cannot run in the background, but crashes and must be restarted. Whether these bugs have been fixed in the update will be seen when the first trainers have been able to try the new update.

Destiny Iron Banner May 2017 – Strong Weapon Rolls and 100% Gear!

In Destiny, the Iron Banner runs in May 2017! You can acquire these weapon rolls and this gear from Lord Efrideet.

In this week, from May 9 to May 16, a special Iron Banner takes place: Hexenkessel Conflict is the game mode. This means for the Guardians that they can save some of their ammo, as their light serves as their “main weapon”. You can activate one super after another, throw heaps of grenades, and on top of that, heavy ammo spawns more frequently.

Don’t forget to stop by Lord Efrideet in the Iron Temple. She has bounties for you to earn loot and level up faster in the “Iron Banner” rank. Additionally, she offers weapons and armor pieces with fixed rolls. We will show you which items are particularly worthwhile.

The 100%-Gear in the Iron Banner in May 2017

05042017_IB_Hunter

The armor pieces referred to as 100%-gear have the maximum value for intellect, discipline, or strength. You need an average of over 96% on the rolls to unlock 12 attribute fields. Then we speak of T12.

If you strike at Efrideet this week, you can’t go wrong. Each item has at least 98%! However, these armor pieces stand out with 100%:

  • Titan: Chest Armor with 61 discipline and 61 strength
  • Titan: Leg Armor with 56 intellect and 56 discipline
  • Warlock: Leg Armor with 56 discipline and 56 strength
  • Warlock: Chest Armor with 61 discipline and 61 strength
  • Hunter: Leg Armor with 56 discipline and 56 strength
  • Hunter: Chest Armor with 61 discipline and 61 strength
division-silberne-grauen

You can buy the armor pieces starting from Iron Banner Rank 3. They cost 25 Legendary Marks.

The Silver Terror – Machine Gun

From Iron Banner Rank 4 and for 50 Marks, you can obtain the machine gun The Silver Terror (with Solar Damage) from Efrideet. You can also randomly acquire this weapon by playing Iron Banner matches – then it comes with random perks.

This is the fixed roll at Efrideet:

You can choose between Aggressive Ballistics, Improved Ballistics, and Linear Compensator.

You have the choice between:

  • Perfect Balance: Lower recoil
  • Reinforced Frame: Increased stability, reduced magazine size

Choice between:

  • Fixed Draw: Weapon can be drawn faster
  • Field Scout: Increased ammo capacity

Choice between:

  • Rangefinder: Aiming increases the effective range
  • One-Man Army: Quick kills without assists reduce melee and grenade cooldowns
destiny-der-schlaue-drache

The Silver Terror is a top weapon for PvP. It is consistently among the top ranks of kills in the Crucible. If this machine gun does not drop with a roll that you like, you can definitely strike here at Efrideet. A stability perk, more ammo, and rangefinder provide an excellent combination.

The Clever Dragon – Pulse Rifle

When you reach the maximum Iron Banner Rank 5, Efrideet offers you the pulse rifle The Clever Dragon. It costs 50 Legendary Marks. This is the roll:

As a sight, there is Iron Red Dot, Iron Warrior Sight, and Iron Range Scope.

You have the choice between:

  • Smallbore: Increased range and stability, slower reload, reduced magazine size
  • Oiled Frame: Faster reload, reduced range

Choice between:

  • Lightweight: +2 character agility
  • Large Caliber Rounds: Knockback targets, harder to handle

Choice between:

  • Counterbalance: Stability increased
  • Feeding Frenzy: Kills briefly increase reload speed

The Clever Dragon was once an outstanding weapon in PvP, until it was heavily nerfed in February 2017. Now “The Nerfed Dragon” is no longer a top-tier weapon, and this perk combination is just mediocre. The once feared effect of large caliber rounds was also reduced for pulse rifles. No purchase recommendation.

Good luck in the Iron Banner, Guardians!

Destiny: Eisenbanner im Mai 2017 ist live! – Infos und Tipps

In the MMO shooter Destiny, the Iron Banner started in May 2017. Here’s what to expect.

Today, on May 9th, the Iron Banner kicked off at 7 PM. And it has a lot to offer: For the first time in the history of this PvP event, a Mayhem game mode is active. This means that your abilities (Super, grenade, melee) recharge much faster than usual. So watch out for flying hammers, Nova bombs, or arrows!

Games will be played in the Clash: Mayhem mode.

Most Guardians will probably pay less attention to tactics and just unleash one Super after another, hoping to hit something. This can be a lot of fun but also frustrating. Guardians don’t agree on this.

You have a week to celebrate your light in the Iron Banner. The event ends on May 16th at 11 AM.

What rewards are there?

Powerful weapons await you.

destiny-der-schlaue-drache

In May, the pulse rifle The Clever Dragon is in the spotlight – once an outstanding weapon in PvP. However, the dragon has since been nerfed, so it is now only average:

division-silberne-grauen

Additionally, there is The Silver Terror. This machine gun is among the best heavy weapons in PvP:

Furthermore, chest protection and leg protection will be featured:

05042017_IB_Titan

05042017_IB_Warlock
Warlock
05042017_IB_Hunter
Hunter

How to grab the loot

If you’re new to Destiny or haven’t played Iron Banner for a while, here are the important details about the loot. There are four ways to get the loot:

  • Purchase from Efrideet: Every month, Efrideet offers two of the “Iron Banner” weapons with fixed perks: This time the pulse rifle and the machine gun. The armor pieces can also be purchased from her.
  • Random drop after Iron Banner matches: The two weapons that Efrideet offers can drop after matches with random perks. Also the armor pieces and other Iron Banner-specific rewards.
  • Reward for completing bounties: If you successfully complete Efrideet’s bounties, you’ll receive an immediate reward. Any Iron Banner gear piece can be randomly included, not just the featured items of the week.
  • Random reward for the quest “The Pursuit of Light”, where you need to reach ranks 1, 3, and 5 in the Iron Banner. This quest is available only once!

Tip: Complete the Nightfall strike before the Iron Banner to gain the “Blue Flame” buff. This increases the reputation gains. To achieve a milestone in the book of triumphs for the Age of Triumph, you need to reach rank 5 in the Iron Banner.

You can also earn a treasure of the ages through the Iron Banner.
