  • In recent weeks, there was a recurring bug that caused empty sighting displays in the tracker. This issue may have been fixed, and you can go on your Pokémon hunt “more reliably” with the update.
  • Additionally, trainers have noticed an increased battery usage on some devices in recent days and weeks. Since the utilization was already lower in earlier versions, players hope for less battery consumption from the update.

Ghost Recon Wildlands: As an Agent in Bolivia – “The Division” pack available

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 2 minutes

If you have The Division and Ghost Recon Wildlands, there is a pack with a Division weapon for free.

The CharacterSmith from Ubisoft’s tactical shooter Ghost Recon Wildlands allows you to change your characters’ outfits. You can adjust the clothing to the different regions. Light clothing for snow regions like Inca Camina or beige clothing for the desert of San-Meteo are good options to remain inconspicuous.

And with the new “The Division” pack, you can dress as an agent in Ghost Recon Wildlands.

Division outfit in Ghost Recon Wildlands

The Ubisoft Club has now announced that the new “The Division” pack is available in Ghost Recon Wildlands. With this pack, you can customize your character with patches, outfits, and a new weapon. The weapon is the orange-white LVOA-C assault rifle from The Division – which is currently one of the best weapons in this shared-world shooter.

The pack is available for free if you own The Division and Ghost Recon Wildlands.

Star Trek Online: Season 13 – PvEvP-Kriegsspiele und neue Story

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time 2 minutes

For Star Trek Online, Season 13 “Escalation” has been announced. It features a new story and the game mode “Maneuvers”, where you play PvE but still compete with other players. A new balancing system is intended to ensure fairness.

Star Trek Online PS4 Xbox One

The science fiction online role-playing game Star Trek Online already comprises 12 seasons, providing enough story content to produce several seasons of a Star Trek series. However, the storyline of STO is far from over, and Season 13 is ready to continue the story on PC on April 25. Additionally, there will be a new game mode and improved balancing.

STO – More Story!

As with every new season of Star Trek Online, this time there will also be an extensive story introduced through the quest “Sound and Smoke”. The focus of the story is the Lukari, a species recently discovered by the Federation.

Star Trek Online New Dawn Ship

To help the Lukari search for their past, you team up with the Lukari captain Kuumaarke. Of course, this all does not happen without conflict. The plundering Tzenkethi interfere and are the main villains of Season 13 “Escalation”.

Star Trek Online – Maneuvers – Together and Against Each Other

Action is also present in the new game mode War Games (Maneuvers). In this mode, you fight alongside four other captains in space against a similarly sized team of players. However, you do not eliminate each other directly but strive to reach PvE objectives before the other team does – thus a PvEvP mode! In War Games, you can earn rewards and even ships.

Star Trek Online Scan

To ensure that the battles in the War Games and regular PvP remain fair, the developers have introduced a new balancing system. While Perfect World has not disclosed exact details, the new system is designed to ensure that you always face opponents of equal strength and that every choice of starship equipment is a meaningful one.

WoW: Die Verheerte Küste ist doof

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 3 minutes

The Broken Shore falls short of expectations. Our author Cortyn finds it one of the most boring zones in WoW.

Actually, I should have put this topic in a Whine Wednesday, but that’s still too far away for me, and it burns too much under my nails for me to wait a week. To be clear: I don’t like the Broken Shore.

WoW Broken Shore 1

The appearance of the Broken Shore is dreadful. Everything looks identical. Barren stones with destroyed Legion buildings and alternating green fire or purple shadow magics seeping from the ground into the world (or vice versa). I constantly have to look at the map to check where I actually want to go. The area has no truly distinctive points – aside from the Tomb of Sargeras. There’s no “creepy swamp zone” like in Tanaan or the misty cave with the elementals like on the Timeless Isle.

Yes, an area tainted by the Legion should be dead, inhospitable, and not exactly inviting. But the Broken Shore overdoes it. The colors are dull, everything seems identical, and there’s hardly anything to discover. Unless, of course, everything is so well hidden that I’ve simply overlooked it.

Hardly anything to discover on the Broken Shore

Another point of criticism is that the Broken Shore does not reward exploration. There are no hidden, rare enemies waiting at the end of a secret passage. There are also hardly any treasures – aside from the mini-chests – with cool toys that I will remember for a long time.

“Aha!” effects like in the jungle of Tanaan or the Timeless Isle are hardly present here – actually not at all. I believe my biggest discovery was that an ogre disguises itself as a turtle in a puddle, wanting to transform the priestesses of the Night Elves into a moonwell.

Currently, the Broken Shore is for me a large, monotonous “Grind Nether Shards!” area where I don’t want to stay because it makes you feel uncomfortable as a player. I’m nearly having flashbacks to Shadowmoon Valley from “The Burning Crusade” – only that one at least had many interesting quests.

WoW Broken Shore 3
The most colorful area on the shore – a graveyard.

Rather mediocre compared to other “patch zones”

In direct comparison to other “zone patches” from Burning Crusade (Quel’danas) to Pandaria (Timeless Isle, Isle of Thunder) and Warlords of Draenor (Tanaan), the shore looks old. There’s hardly anything to do. Some elite mob spawns every 15-20 minutes, carrying 30 more shards. Yes, wow. I’d rather farm Paragon rewards in Suramar.

It’s of course possible that the shore will change in the coming weeks, as the camp of the Legion judges is further expanded. Or I’ve simply been blind and have overlooked all the hidden details so far. But I’m rather skeptical about that.

What do you think of the Broken Shore so far? Is it exactly your thing or rather disappointing so far?

Patch 7.2 has more than just the Broken Shore. What else awaits you, we reveal here.

Battlefield 1: Premium Friends – Access DLC Content for Free

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 2 minutes

The new Premium Friends feature in Battlefield 1 allows players without DLC to play the content of the expansion for free. However, not “all” content is free.

In Battlefield 1, a new system is being tested starting today, allowing players who haven’t purchased DLC to access the content of the expansions. This system is called Premium Friends and has been requested by the community in similar form. We will show you how the Premium Friends system works and what advantages and disadvantages it has.

Premium-Friends: Play with friends on Premium maps

To enhance cooperation in Battlefield 1, the developers at DICE take a lot of feedback from the fans and the community of Battlefield 1. Recently, it has been noted more often that players with a Premium Pass would like to see more players on the Premium maps. After considerable deliberation, the team concluded that they would introduce Premium Friends.

Battlefield 1 They Shall not Pass Title

If you own a Battlefield 1 Premium Pass , you can invite friends to the new maps. When you invite players to a group, the group receives the status “Premium-activated” and every player in this party can play on all maps, regardless of whether they purchased the content or not.

This allows all players with a friend who owns a Premium Pass to play together on the new DLC maps without being excluded. This has the advantage of having more players on the new maps and reducing wait times. However, not all content is shared with non-Premium friends.

Premium Friends – Exclusive content only for Pass owners

Some experiences of an expansion remain exclusive to players who own the Premium Pass in Battlefield 1.

  • If your group is “Premium-activated”, only players with the BF1 Premium Pass or owners of the expansion receive experience points for the maps belonging to the expansion. The XP for all other players is saved and distributed later if the player decides to get a Premium Pass.
  • Only the owners of the relevant expansion or a BF1 Premium Pass can spawn with vehicles or weapons specifically related to the expansion.
  • Progress on unique medals or codices of an expansion is also withheld from players with the BF1 Premium Pass or owners of the expansion.

During the current Battlefest, you might already be able to try out this Premium Friends feature. In the coming days, the developers are paying close attention to your feedback to further improve this feature.

WoW: Nothing to do in Patch 7.2? – Patience, content arrives “staggered”

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

Players are complaining that there is nothing to do in the new patch of WoW . After a few hours, the excitement wanes – but why?

The anticipation was high for most players when the heroes of Azeroth finally plunged into the new content of Patch 7.2 to give the Burning Legion a good kicking.

However, the spirit of exploration lasted only a short time. After battling through the quests and upgrading the artifact weapon for nearly an hour, a visit to the dungeon “The Cathedral of Eternal Night” was on the agenda – before the faces became longer and longer. Occasionally, an elite enemy appears on the map of the Broken Shore, but otherwise, not much happened.

Kil'Jaeden-WoW

Is that all there is? Does Patch 7.2 have nothing more to offer, and is the fun over after 2-3 hours?

That is only partially true, as Blizzard has decided to release the content of 7.2 “The Tomb of Sargeras” in phases, which is why the first week is a bit lackluster. Meanwhile, the developers have clarified and explained when exactly the various contents of 7.2 will become available:

  • Week 2: The Legion invasions begin on the Broken Isles and the first PvP brawl is active
  • Week 3: Chapter 5 of the class campaign becomes accessible, unlocking new followers, new upgrades for the order hall, and class-specific world quests.
  • Week 4-11: Ongoing pieces of the story will be unlocked, ultimately leading to the opening of the Tomb of Sargeras and the ability to earn class mounts.
Wow Tomb of Sargeras Elven Glasses

There are several reasons for this phasing. One reason is that they do not want to overwhelm players with too many possibilities right away. Another reason is that the unlocking of the content follows a rough storyline arc, which is represented in this way. Week 1, for instance, is the attack of Dalaran on the Broken Shore, in week 2 the Legion counters with the invasions, and in week 3 the heroes react to that.

Blizzard apologizes for not having communicated this clearly from the beginning and hopes that all uncertainties are now resolved.

Blizzard is also drastically raising prices in WoW and Hearthstone – a good reason to complain.

The console port of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds for the Playstation 4 and Xbox One is taking shape. Now there is a first statement about it.

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds has only been in Early Access on Steam for a week and is already a success. The game has generated millions in revenue from sales in just a few days.

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds: Soon in Xbox Game Preview?

At least on Microsoft’s Xbox One, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds seems to be playable already. The website Kotaku found a statement from Bluehole employee and producer Chang-han Kim on the Korean website Inven.

In it, the producer states that PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is already running on Xbox One. They aim for a release as “Game Preview” on Xbox One, which is a form of Early Access. Bluehole is currently polishing the game for the Xbox One early version.

Sony does not offer an “Early Access” program. Therefore, it is only possible to release games for “Full Release” on PS4. This is a situation that several “Early Access” phenomena have already struggled with.

Release on PS4 and Xbox One planned – Late summer 2017

When PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is finished and “fully released,” it is supposed to come to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

The Early Access period is planned for 6 months. Therefore, the full release of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds on PC, PS4, and Xbox One should occur in late summer 2017. It could possibly appear on Xbox One even earlier.

However, these dates depend on whether the team’s plans and intentions are fulfilled.

ArcheAge suddenly sells APEX cheaply – Buying frenzy at the end of the quarter?

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 2 minutes

In the sandbox MMORPG ArcheAge, there are some murmurs about a wave of special offers. A flash-sale-like offer is particularly upsetting to fans. Is Trion Worlds trying to improve its quarterly numbers with sales?

As reported by the US site Massively, Trion Worlds is currently causing a stir in the ArcheAge forums with a special offer. On Monday, Trion Worlds launched a special offer for APEX: “A Special Bonus on APEX Purchases – for a Limited Time Only.”

  • Anyone who buys 5 APEX Packs gets 1 free.
  • Anyone who buys 10 APEX Packs gets 3 free.

What some people are complaining about is the phrase “Act fast! This offer could disappear at any moment.” It is a “flash sale” that is not clearly time-limited, to create a sense of “buying pressure” on players.

The APEX were, as Massively writes, stable until now and were never significantly discounted. That something like this just “comes out of nowhere on a Monday” surprises even this YouTuber:

Link to the YouTube content

Such a thing has never happened, that APEX were discounted in ArcheAge, no matter how much fans demanded it.

Flash Sale, Sale here, Sale there

This flash sale is only part of a “Sales Offensive” by Trion Worlds. There were also other “Limited Time Sales for Legacy and Fresh Start Servers” offered. Additionally, there is a “Buy One, Get One Yellow Charms” – meaning buy 1, get 2.

Players on reddit view this flood of offers and especially the “Strike now! It could disappear at any time” buying frenzy of ArcheAge critically. There’s a suspicion that Trion Worlds is trying to improve its numbers for the first quarter. Players believe Trion Worlds feels pressure and urgently wants to generate revenue to make its quarterly numbers look better.

ArcjheAge-Flash

It’s difficult to assess this from the outside. ArcheAge is one of the games that have always been critically observed and discussed regarding monetization.

Lantern Festival

Significantly less controversial is the “GeweonidForest Lantern Festival”, which began on March 29. Here, players can complete some quests and earn prizes for tokens.

The event runs until April 19.

Andreas Bertits Andreas Bertits Reading time 2 minutes

CCP Games will introduce the warship Molok with the upcoming May update of the space MMO EVE Online .

This ship is the “Molok,” which is associated with the pirate faction Blood Raider. The cost for the Titan-class vessel is exorbitantly high. While the previously most expensive Titan ship Avatar costs 100 billion ISK, the costs for the Molok range from 300 to 500 billion ISK.

If someone were to buy this ISK for real money, it would come to a price between 5,000 and 8,000 US dollars. An exact price will be announced later.

Transporter for 100,000 corpses

The ship is made for the Blood Raider. Because the pirate faction attacks humans to siphon their blood for gruesome rituals. And the Molok can fit up to 100,000 human corpses in its cargo holds. This allows many dead bodies to be transported at once.

The pirates gather these corpses by collecting dead pilots floating in space. These bodies actually have no gameplay value, but can be used as trophies, and sometimes they are traded. The bodies of famous players can be worth a lot of money.

An expensive pleasure

However, the cargo holds of the Molok will not actually be filled with corpses, this is only represented by a list. When a Molok is destroyed, the explosion also destroys the transported bodies. Anyone who owns such a ship also enjoys a bonus for the “Energy Nosferatu” devices. With these, you siphon energy from hostile ships for your own use.

Anyone looking to own a Molok in the space MMO EVE Online should start saving up before the May update rolls out and introduces the massive spaceship.

Star Wars Battlefront 2: Officially Announced – Release Date 2017

Andreas Bertits Andreas Bertits Reading time 2 minutes

DICE and Electronic Arts have officially announced the online shooter Star Wars Battlefront 2.

Even before the release of Star Wars Battlefront 1, discussions were held at the developer studio DICE and with the publisher Electronic Arts about a sequel. Now it has happened: Star Wars Battlefront 2 is officially announced.

Especially the topic of a single-player campaign is important. This is the aspect that players definitely want. The studio remains silent on how exactly Star Wars Battlefront 2 will look and how a single-player campaign will be integrated into the game.

The online shooter will come this year

However, the online shooter has now been officially announced. Although it was already clear that the game was coming, with the official announcement everything now has its bureaucratic correctness.

As part of the announcement, it was also explained when to expect the first trailer. It will be shown at Star Wars Celebration in Orlando on April 15. Then DICE intends to reveal more about the online shooter. There should be a live stream for this event. The announcement also mentions a release of the game this year.

Scenarios from Star Wars Episode 8?

Battlefront Death Star Title

One can already be curious about which battles in Star Wars Battlefront 2 will serve as scenarios. Presumably, we will also see elements from the upcoming movie Star Wars Episode 8: The Last Jedi.

This kind of cross-promotion was already the case in the first part, as some scenarios were linked to the movie Star Wars Episode 7: The Force Awakens. It is estimated that Star Wars Battlefront 2 will be released this November, shortly before the film release of Star Wars Episode 8: The Last Jedi on December 14.

Pokémon GO: Will the Shiny Pokémon stay in the game?

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 2 minutes

The shiny Pokémon first appeared at the Water Festival. Will they also remain in the game after the Pokémon GO event?

Until last night, trainers could find Water Pokémon in the wild with an increased chance in Pokémon GO. This was due to the Water Festival, which started on March 22. Additionally, shiny Pokémon appeared in the game for the first time during the event, taking the form of golden Magikarp and red Gyarados. Will the shinies be gone from Pokémon GO with the end of the event?

The shiny Pokémon remain

It was previously unclear whether the monsters in new colors would remain in the game or be deactivated again with the end of the event. Trainers had made special efforts and worked “overtime” to catch one of the coveted golden or red monsters during the event time. However, this only worked in a few cases because shiny Pokémon are particularly rare.

Pokemon GO Shiny Title

Now the Water Festival has ended. Will the shinies remain in the game and be catchable?

Some players already suspected that these Pokémon would remain in the game. However, there was no official response from Niantic during the Water Pokémon event.

After the water event concluded, the developers confirmed via Twitter that the shinies will continue to appear in the wild. Even though they will remain rare.

For players who do not play near a water biome, the chances of finding these rare forms have significantly decreased, as only the shiny forms of Magikarp and Gyarados have been confirmed so far. When additional shiny Pokémon will be released is still unknown. They may come in connection with another Pokémon GO event in 2017.

The water event was received positively overall

Last week, with the increased chance of Water Pokémon, trainers received mostly positive feedback. Many users write on Reddit that they enjoyed the event. The frequently occurring Water Pokémon were a good idea to boost many players’ collections.

The additional surprise with the shiny monsters was particularly well done by the developer team.

How did you like the water event? Did you catch any special Pokémon or perhaps shinies?

Destiny 2 PC: The way is clear for a PC port

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 2 minutes

There will be an announcement for Destiny 2 this evening. The story about “Destiny on PC – Yes or No” should now come to an end.

In the past, we have often reported that Destiny might come to PC. Today, “Destiny 2 on PC” is once again a major topic.

But some readers are already annoyed: It has been said for years that Destiny is coming to PC – this time again. They are skeptical.

So: Destiny on PC – What is the truth?

Destiny and the PC – A story full of misunderstandings

The story of Destiny and PC is convoluted. Because we know that Destiny 2 is supposed to be released for PC according to an old contract between publisher Activision and developer Bungie.

The problem is: Destiny 2 was still scheduled for September 2015 in this contract.

However, Destiny 2 was postponed twice:

The question each time was: Did the contract allow Destiny to be brought to PC already, even though Destiny 2 had not yet been released?

One factor was certainly that Destiny served the first two years on the “last-gen” consoles PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. A port to PC, while Destiny still had to run on these consoles, would likely not have been satisfactory.

Destiny PC
2 opportunities for bringing Destiny to PC were missed by Bungie

It would have been possible for Bungie to make the transition of Destiny to PC in September 2015 or 2016. But neither happened:

  • The expansion “The Taken King” released in September 2015 continued for all four console platforms.
  • The expansion “Rise of Iron” released in September 2016 dropped PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 but still did not come to PC, even though the time would have certainly been ripe for it.

In hindsight, it can be assumed that Bungie wanted a “clean restart” to bring PC players on board. They should not start “in the middle” or “at the end” of Destiny 1.

The way is clear for Destiny 2 on PC

But now Destiny 2 is truly on the way. A restart is also confirmed. This clears all obstacles out of the way. Tonight at 7 PM, we should finally officially find out in the “reveal trailer” whether Destiny 2 is finally coming to PC or not.

Update 8:00 PM: Yes, Destiny 2 is coming to PC.

Hearthstone: Paladin quest brings Galvadon with 5-fold mutation

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 3 minutes

Finally, Paladins also have their quest in Hearthstone. Everything revolves around “Mutating.” But in Un’goro, there are also new RNG turtles that are at least cute.

If the rumors and signs are to be believed, the next expansion for Hearthstone “Journey to Un’goro” will be released as early as next week. Blizzard continues to gradually reveal more cards and sprinkle in small highlights to keep fans engaged. In the current reveals, there is the quest for Paladins and some strange spell turtles.

The neutral elemental Blazecaller has rather poor stats of 6/6 for 7 mana, but its Battlecry deals 5 damage if an elemental was played in the previous turn.

Waiting for Warriors is the Cornered Sentry. A cheap 2-mana minion with Taunt and stats of 2/6. However, the opponent receives three 1/1 Raptors via Battlecry – so it requires tactics to use this card correctly.

Druids receive a new spell. For 4 mana, Evolving Spores gives all of the Druid’s minions “Adapt.”

Warlocks remain faithful to their line of “destroying their own cards.” The Ravenous Pterrordax, a 4/4 beast for 4 mana, destroys a friendly minion via Battlecry. As a reward, it grants 2 times Adapt to itself.

The neutral elemental Servant of Kalimos costs 5 mana for 4/5 in stats. If an elemental was played in the previous turn, the player discovers another elemental via Battlecry.

Hearthstone: The Paladin Quest “The Last Kaleidosaur” and Galvadon

The quest for Paladins is The Last Kaleidosaur and requires the Paladin to cast a total of 6 spells on their own minions. As a reward, Galvadon, a 5/5 beast for 5 mana, is offered. As a Battlecry, it gives itself Adapt (Mutating) – a total of 5 times!

Also for Paladins is the buff Spikeridged Steed, a spell for 6 mana. A minion is equipped with a Stegodon, granting it +2/+6 and Taunt. When the affected minion dies, it summons a 2/6 Stegodon instead.

Shamans have received the new Hate card. For 3 mana, they can use Spirit Echo to lift the Deathrattle effect from all friendly minions, returning the affected minion to the player’s hand.

In conclusion, the winner for the cutest artwork of the expansion (so far) is the Tortollan Primalist, which costs 8 mana for 5/4 and has an interesting Battlecry: Discover a spell and then cast it with random targets.

What do you think of the new cards? Cool things in there or just trash this time?

The hunting dwarf Hemet Nesingwary also appears in Un’Goro – he destroys your deck!

WoW: Legion – Hotfix korrigiert die skalierenden Gegner

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

A hotfix for World of Warcraft has mitigated the dramatic scaling of mobs. However, Blizzard does not want to completely disable it.

Shortly after the release of Patch 7.2 “Tomb of Sargeras”, there were numerous complaints from players in World of Warcraft. Once harmless enemies on the Broken Isles pounded even experienced heroes into the ground. Those who pulled three enemies at once, where they used to pull seven or even eight mobs, found themselves in the dirt faster than they could slam “wtf blizz” into the general chat.

This is due to a new system where enemies at level 110 scale with the player’s item level. These values, however, are drastically higher than intended, which is why a hotfix has now been implemented. This brought with it primarily two major changes that Community Manager Ornyx presented in the official forum:

  • Scaling enemies no longer deal damage. The goal was to increase the duration of battles and not to make enemies more threatening.
  • The rate at which the health points of enemies scale with the player’s item level has been drastically reduced. The sole aim here is to extend the fights so that monsters are not dead before players can respond – for example, when multiple players are waiting for a quest mob.
WoW Bloody Dead Soldier
Thanks to scaling enemies, it often ended up in the dirt.

Later on, a bug will also be fixed that currently causes the removal of gear to drastically weaken enemies. As of this morning, it was beneficial to remove a ring since enemies then lost up to 30% of their health points. “This change will ensure that it is never the right decision to remove equipment,” Ornyx said.

You can find out what documented changes Patch 7.2 “Tomb of Sargeras” has brought in this article about the patch notes.
