Tera (The Exiled Realm of Arborea) is a high-profile free-to-play action MMORPG. It was released in South Korea in January 2011. After a strong start, development slowed down due to a legal conflict for a while. The creators of Lineage, NCSoft, had raised accusations against Bluehole, claiming they had stolen “Trade Secrets” for Lineage 3.

Since the accusations have been cleared, the development of Tera has picked up pace again, and new classes and fresh content have been released. The next addition will be a glaive-fighting class. Here in Europe, Tera is published by Gameforge.

When En Masse brought Tera to the PC platform Steam in 2015, Tera became the most played MMORPG on Valve’s platform in no time.

Tera-Action

Tera is a classic MMORPG, where combat against giant monsters – the BAMs (Big Ass Monsters) – takes center stage. The combat system is action-packed and is considered refined.

The fact that Tera is now coming to PS4 and Xbox One is a very interesting development for consoles. A pure action MMORPG like Tera is something new here. There isn’t anything quite like it there yet. Neverwinter is the closest to it. This year, the similarly themed Skyforge is also set to be released on PS4 and Xbox One.

Sea of Thieves: Gameplay video shows how a “Voyage” quest fails

Sea of Thieves looks incredibly fun. In a new gameplay video, the developers of the online pirate game set out to complete one of the new “Voyage” quests… and fail at it.

A “Voyage” quest in Sea of Thieves can unfold in different ways. Some of these missions are very short, while others take you to multiple islands and accordingly take longer. During such a quest, players are supposed to feel like they are experiencing an epic adventure, which is also reflected by the music that changes according to the situation and creates an exciting atmosphere.

Sea of Thieves
From treasure hunting to sea battles

In a new gameplay video, some of the game’s developers embark on such a “Voyage” quest during the technical alpha.

The crew of a ship sets out to dig for treasure and then discovers another ship anchored near an island. Naturally, this leads directly to a sea battle against a breathtaking sunset. The ship takes a lot of damage, and the crew has to patch the leaks during the battle so that the vessel doesn’t sink. Suddenly, there is a boarding attack, and the crew must face the enemy crew on their own deck.

As can be seen in the video, the developers do not fare very well; most of the crew are killed, and the treasures are stolen. It is also shown what happens when a crew member dies. Because this person then finds themselves on a ghost ship.

It looks soooo good!

The video of Sea of Thieves is already a lot of fun to watch and shows how an adventure in the pirate game can unfold and how good it already looks during the alpha. It makes you excited to finally be able to play the online game yourself. But that still takes a while, as Sea of Thieves is set to be released later this year for Windows 10 PCs and Xbox One.

Our games for the weekend – What are you playing from 10th to 12th March?

Another week has gone by! Time to play! But what’s on your agenda? Let us know what you want to play in the coming days!

For most players, the end of the workday today means it’s time to relax with some online games over the weekend of March 10 to 12. This weekend is especially good for a trip to Bolivia, colorful fantasy worlds, or creepy wastelands.

https://youtu.be/Ag0YKzpTvDs

Death to the Cartel!

Fans of tactics, action, and stunning open worlds surely have already booked a ticket to virtual Bolivia this weekend. In the game, the recently released tactical shooter Ghost Recon Wildlands lets you explore Bolivia, which turns out to be a corrupt drug swamp controlled by the minions of the Santa Blanca cartel.

Ghost Recon Wildlands Screenshot

This portrayal of the country, by the way, is not taken lightly by the Bolivian government and they have already filed a complaint against the manufacturer Ubisoft with the French government. But whether the portrayal of Bolivia in the game is authentic or not, Ghost Recon Wildlands is definitely fun, especially as it has been significantly improved since the disastrous beta version.

What is the editorial team playing?

Of course, the Mein-MMO team also uses the weekend to play our favorite games. Here is our list:

paladins inara cassie kl

I, Jürgen, have just developed a similar passion for covert operations against the Santa Blanca cartel. After finally taking down my first cartel Buchons yesterday (burn in hell, “La Yuri y El Polito”!), I will also be playing Ghost Recon Wildlands this weekend along with some pen-and-paper RPG (DSA ftw!). Since I also like to play as a sniper but currently don’t have a decent scope yet, I will focus on finding better scopes for the sniper rifle.

If I find the time, I will invest my currently saved crowns in the new items in the ESO shop and crown crates of the Wild Hunt, because this stuff totally suits my taste this time.


But enough about us! What are you playing this weekend? Are you also drawn to Bolivia or do you have other plans? Let us know in the comments!

Dead by Daylight meets Left 4 Dead – New, free survivor “Bill”

“Bill” from Left 4 Dead is now also in Dead by Daylight. The new free character brings cool perks into the matches.

In the developers’ livestreams of Dead by Daylight, they have repeatedly emphasized that they are big fans of the Left 4 Dead series. No wonder, as the zombie shooter is one of the most fun and enduring games on Steam. Now the developers have managed to come to an agreement with Valve to offer a new DLC for Dead by Daylight.

Dead by Daylight Left 4 Dead Characters

The DLC “Left Behind” is free and will be automatically added to all owners of Dead by Daylight. For all players, there is the new survivor Bill Overbeck, who comes with 3 unique perks.

  • Left Behind – If you are the last survivor in a match, you receive a powerful bonus to the repair speed of the remaining generators.
  • Borrowed Time – If you rescue someone from the hook while you are in the killer’s terror radius, any damage that would down you or the rescued player is delayed for a few seconds, allowing both to escape for a while.
  • Unyielding – Once per match, you can fully recover yourself from the downed state.

In addition to the new survivor Bill, there are also costumes for 4 more survivors, allowing you to dress them up like the protagonists from Left 4 Dead. Dwight looks like Ellis, Claudette borrows the appearance of Rochelle, Jake copies the outfit of Francis, and Meg is a reincarnation of Zoey.

Cortyn says: The combination of Dead by Daylight and Left 4 Dead fits perfectly here. I particularly like the fact of how the two “stories” have been intertwined. Because those who remember Left 4 Dead 2 know that Bill died while he had to repair a generator. That he now reappears in a game where he basically has to repair generators endlessly is brilliant and ironic at the same time. Well done.


Why we love Dead by Daylight, we explain to you in this article.

The Division: Bietet das Jahr 2 noch mehr als Events, Loadouts und Feats?

Year 2 of The Division delivers three major innovations. But is that it?

On March 8, 2017, during the one-year anniversary of The Division, Ubisoft and Massive spoke in detail about the plans for Year 2 for the first time. There will be two free expansions for all agents, with the first planned for the summer. Throughout the year, bug fixes and balancing patches will also be provided.

In the reveal stream, three major innovations were discussed:

  • Seasons: These are time-limited events where you play playlists of PvE activities with modifiers. There are leaderboards and special rewards.
  • Loadouts: Starting in the summer, you can save your builds and switch between them at will.
  • Feats: These are achievements that allow you to show in-game what great accomplishments you have already achieved. With these, you can customize your character’s appearance.
Division-Concept-Christmas

The agents are skeptical about these “big innovations”: Loadouts are a long-awaited feature, yes, but the rest sounds like cosmetic stuff and old activities with a new coat of paint. There are doubts that this can entertain for an entire year. Is there more to come?

Not all details have been revealed yet

In the Division forums, players express disappointment, stating that they expected more from Year 2. The Division is likely to be remembered as one of the “biggest missed opportunities” in gaming history, say frustrated agents.

Division-Concept

In a current “State of the Game” article, Massive addresses these concerns. They emphasize that only some “Year 2” plans have been announced. Not all details of the two expansions have been revealed. However, they are very interested in reading your ideas and suggestions on the “Suggestions and Feedback” page in the Division forum.

We know that there will be no paid DLCs in Year 2. There will also be no level cap increase. The map will not be expanded either. When asked about more story missions, the response was that the second expansion of this year will focus on “story” and narrative elements. Additionally, the developers mentioned a fantastic new vanity slot (for cosmetic items) that they can only talk about in detail in the future. It seems that not much more is to come.

Ttime says:

This “Year 2” reveal sounds less like “Hey, we are going all out in Year 2” and more like “We need some sort of activity for the players now!” while behind the scenes, they are working on something bigger – possibly a sequel, “The Division 2”.

In an interview with GameSpot, the Creative Director Julian Gerighty was asked directly how a sequel looks in the future. He replied that he can only say at the moment that the entire team is committed to working on The Division and will be busy for a long time. Furthermore, he stated that they are working on exciting plans for the future of the “The Division” brand.

It remains to be seen how motivating and varied the events will be. Perhaps there are still one or two nice surprises in the yet-to-be-announced “details” for Year 2. However, I wouldn’t recommend setting the expectations for Year 2 too high.


Currently, the “Year 1” celebration is taking place in The Division. What you can expect in the game can be found in the provided link.

World of Tanks: Ciabatta! Dolph Lundgren in hilarious commercial

Wargaming, the creators of World of Tanks, recently enlisted action star Dolph Lundgren as their advertising icon. Now the first commercial featuring the 80s action legend has been released, and it is hilariously funny!

World-of-Tanks-Grille-15

In the 80s, the world was quite different and especially action heroes were icons of clichéd masculinity. Among them was Dolph Lundgren, who as the tough brute Ivan Drago pummeled the equally distinctive Sylvester Stallone around the ring in Rocky IV.

“We’re not in the 80s anymore”

But now the 80s are long gone, and masculinity is defined differently in the year 2017. Thus, Dolph Lundgren feels rather lost in the new World of Tanks commercial and is desperately searching for an appropriate new hobby for modern men.

World-of-Tanks-2

However, whether he is baking crispy ciabatta bread in a cooking class, attending relaxing yoga classes, or testing VR headsets – nothing works, everything ends in disaster. Then his manager has a life-saving idea. A game with tanks, and it’s also free! World of Tanks becomes Dolph Lundgren’s new hobby. To the detriment of an innocent loaf of bread!

World of Tanks – Action heroes and tanks – A perfect mix

The Dolph Lundgren ad hits the same note with its wit and crude humor as the advertisement for World of Warships featuring Steven Seagal released last year. It’s yet to be seen whether Dolph Lundgren – like Seagal – will be included in the game as a tank commander.

Perhaps other 80s action heroes like Stallone, Schwarzenegger, or even Chuck Norris will make an appearance in the game someday. At least Arnold Schwarzenegger has already proven with the advertising for the mobile game Mobile Strike that he’s up for such antics. It would definitely be cool, and Wargaming should have enough money for it too!

We have embedded the hilariously funny commercial here. Enjoy watching!

Also interesting: World of Tanks has proven to have humor in advertising before. See here how tanks trample potency drugs and housewife bickering in the Superbowl commercials!

My MMO asks: Satisfied with Ghost Recon Wildlands?

The beta phases of Ghost Recon Wildlands received a lot of criticism – Are you satisfied with the current version?

During last year’s E3 fair, Ubisoft showcased the first exciting trailers of the new tactical shooter. With further trailers and gameplay videos, players were prepared for the upcoming open world adventure. This year followed a closed and an open beta, both of which received a lot of criticism, but could convince in the cooperative sector.

On March 7th, the game was released and you had time to test it. How satisfied are you with Ghost Recon Wildlands?

Harsh criticism during beta tests

Ghost Recon Wildlands had a rough start. In early February 2017, it was time: selected players could participate in the closed beta of GRW. The community’s conclusion was interesting, as despite Wildlands having many bugs at that time, players did not reject it but demanded a later release.

This was requested so that the developers would have more time to fix the existing problems of the game. Something about Ubisoft’s new title was done right and convinced the community despite obvious weaknesses.

Ghost Recon Release Delay

As points of criticism, the vague vehicle controls were often seen, which made driving cars or motorcycles worse than players wanted. The complicated flying with the helicopter was also often criticized. Added to this was questionable behavior of the AI characters in the game. Both the teammates and the opponents controlled by the computer appeared lost and overwhelmed in many situations.

Ghost Recon Wildlands Sniper Title

However, there were also many positive feedbacks, for example praising the cooperative gameplay. With up to four players, you can complete story and side missions in the various regions of Ghost Recon Wildlands. The simultaneous progress of the missions and the various tactical options were positively noted. The arsenal of weapons with 23 assault rifles and 17 sniper rifles was also well received by testers.

How do you rate the “finished” Ghost Recon Wildlands?

Despite the harsh criticism, many of you gave the game a chance and wanted to test the “finished” product. A few days have already passed since you could try Ubisoft’s tactical shooter. You may have already completed missions in the various regions, defeated boss enemies, and solved side missions to gather resources. Some of you probably had to parachute out of a helicopter because you couldn’t absolutely trust your pilot.

Ghost Recon Wildlands Screenshot

Does the current version of Ghost Recon Wildlands meet your expectations and are you satisfied with the game?

  • If yes: Which features or aspects convinced you? Cooperative gameplay, open world?
  • If no: Could a patch fix these problems, or is the game so far from your expectations that all hope is lost?

This is how Ghost Recon Wildlands has improved since the beta

Final Fantasy XIV: 3.55b – 280 Weapons in Mass PvE annoys Raiders

In the fantasy MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV, the latest patch 3.55b is live. It drives players insane.

Final Fantasy XIV is a gigantic and complex MMORPG. Yesterday, one of the last patches before the summer expansion Stormblood was released. With this patch, even “casual” players can get top weapons if they are very lucky.

3.55b was originally intended as a “farewell” for the Heavensward expansion, but the patch leads to disharmony.

Mass PvE Diadem causes trouble again

In 3.55b, the mission type “Expeditions to the Diadem” was revised.

This type of “casual raid for everyone and anyone” has been under discussion since the launch of Heavensward. The Diadem has been causing trouble since at least December 2015, because players with different interests are together in one instance. The Diadem is suitable for both warriors and mages (the normal classes), as well as for the gathering professions of Final Fantasy XIV.

Diadem

The gatherers, however, do not deal damage to the mobs. This frustrates the other players in their group. The Diadem has never really worked and therefore needs to be revised. However, there were difficulties in this process. This revision has taken forever. Only now, on March 9, was the new Diadem completed and came as patch 3.55b to Final Fantasy XIV.

Up to 72 players can participate in such a “Diadem” at the same time – 9 groups of 8 players each. Therefore, it is more of an event for “casual” players and not as “structured” as what is usual in the pronounced raid scene of Final Fantasy XIV.

Players are together in one zone, and everyone can play as they like.

Emergency missions in the Diadem bring ilvl-280 weapons

With patch 3.55b, “Emergency Missions” appear in the Diadem. This doesn’t happen all the time; only sometimes do these “Emergency Missions” show up. Currently, it is unknown what triggers these missions and what requirements must be met. These emergency missions are supposed to encourage the various groups in the zone to work together to achieve something.

If such an emergency mission occurs, players have 15 minutes to complete specific tasks. It is necessary for as many of the 72 players in the Diadem to participate in the task as possible.

This is how you have a chance at the currently best weapon in Final Fantasy XIV

If it works out with the emergency mission, there is a chance of a treasure chest containing a low chance of an ilvl-280 weapon. This is “individual loot,” so it does not need to be rolled for. This weapon is currently the ultimate reward – stronger than what hardcore players have earned so far.

However, as the YouTuber Charles explains, it relies on a lot of luck to actually get such a weapon:

  • First, the emergency missions must actually occur
  • Then, it seems that only one out of the 72 participants will get this weapon (this is still uncertain)
  • And then it must also match the stats and be better than the current one

Therefore, Charles believes: It’s not worth the excitement.

Emergency missions cause trouble in Final Fantasy XIV

Since 3.55b has only been live for a few hours, the details about the drop chances for the 280 weapon are still unclear. However, it seems that this drop is causing trouble among hardcore players, as “casual” players can now get weapons of equal or better strength with a bit of luck – especially since there was a lot of fuss about the Anima weapons in Final Fantasy XIV that require a lot of effort.

These emergency missions can also lead to unwanted gameplay behavior. For example, if players linger in the Diadem but do not participate in the activities, waiting for an emergency mission to start.

Apparently, there is a lot of excitement before Stormblood. In June, we will surely see completely different weapons and item levels when Stormblood is released:

Destiny Xur today – Location and inventory from 10.3. – Truth

In Destiny, the arrival of Xur is imminent. What is his location and his inventory? What items does he have on offer today?

Destiny is currently going through an exciting phase. The last content that Destiny 1 will experience is being revealed these days. The Guardians are reacting mixed to these announcements: some are disappointed with the “rehashed raids”, others are happy that there is something to do again, while others become sentimental and develop nostalgic feelings.

According to Bungie, the Age of Triumph is meant to provide a worthy conclusion to three years of Destiny. After that, they will start afresh with the sequel – the future of the MMO shooter.

Until this future arrives, Xur still needs a lot of Strange Coins. To this end, he will reliably come to the Guardians over the coming weekends and sell them his wares.

All information about Xur in Destiny on March 10, 11, and 12 on PS4 and Xbox One

When does Xur come? When does Xur leave? – The times

Xur arrives today Friday at 10 AM in the Reef or the Tower. There he presents you with his inventory and if you stay close to him long enough, he will also share a few witty lines from his tentacle beard. He will leave us on Sunday at 10 AM again – with a clanking bag full of Strange Coins.

Where is Xur? Location

In the question of Xur’s location, the Agent of the Nine somewhat resembles a certain Dr. Dr. Cooper. He has his fixed spots where he spends his time – he is not satisfied with other locations. This time he is in the Reef.

Overwatch: Fan theory confirmed – Symmetra is autistic

Jeff Kaplan has confirmed what many fans of Overwatch have already suspected. The hero Symmetra is an autistic.

Symmetra is one of the characters from Overwatch who cannot easily be categorized as “good” or “evil”. While she fights for a “better future” and is convinced that she and the Vishkar Corp. are doing what is best for humanity, her actions can sometimes be quite evil. In order to eliminate competing rivals, there is often an attack or a “terrible accident” that plays into Vishkar’s hands. Many examples of this can be found in her comic “A Better World” .

Overwatch Symmetra Posing

However, Symmetra is special in another way: She “suffers” from autism.

Jeff Kaplan confirmed this in a letter to a fan who shared how Overwatch brought him and his brother closer together. In the letter, Kaplan extensively discussed Symmetra and revealed that she is indeed autistic.

After the letter was posted on Tumblr, Blizzard confirmed to the magazine Polygon that it indeed came from Kaplan.

Autism exists in numerous different forms, but it can usually be identified in three areas: problems with social interaction, communication issues (understanding verbal and nonverbal language), and noticeable behaviors or highly restricted interests.

Symmetra has overcome what many see as “problems” and instead utilizes her autism to accomplish things others cannot. She easily notices the smallest errors, and her drive for perfection makes her an excellent agent for Vishkar.

Overall, this is yet another sign of how strong the diversity in Overwatch is and a clear symbol that illness or disability does not make a person “worse”, but – as in the case of Symmetra’s autism – can even come with special talents and abilities.

Cortyn says: This is probably one of the more unspectacular fan theories, but at least there is now no more doubt. Many hints in the game have already indicated this, such as the highlight intros where she meticulously adjusts a camera or her constant drive for perfection and symmetry. Her quotes like “Welcome to my reality” also hinted that Symmetra views the world from a different perspective than most people. However, a shifted perspective often allows for the most beautiful images.

Destiny: Will there be a vault expansion? Bungie gives a clear answer

Bungie provides a clear answer as to whether there will be a vault expansion in Destiny 1.

Discussions about vault size and limited storage options have been a constant theme since the launch of Destiny. Many Guardians want to keep all their “treasures” stored, and collecting is an important aspect of this MMO shooter. Therefore, especially with new expansions, calls have repeatedly been made: “There are new items? We need a bigger vault!”

In the current “This Week at Bungie,” three important questions about the Age of Triumph are answered. Among them: Will the vault be larger?

Bungie’s answer: No. There will be no new options to store items in Destiny 1. They refer to the kiosks with which you can keep track of your collections.

This should put the discussion about a larger vault to rest until Destiny 2. Guardians will certainly continue to complain about it, but Bungie has now clearly positioned itself.

More information on “Age of Triumph”

The new seal book records data account-wide. If you created a character, played with it in the early days of Destiny, and then deleted it, you will still be able to unlock milestones for the Commemorations page. This is the second page in the book where you must have completed an activity between the launch of Destiny and “Darkness Awaits.”

destiny-weekly-rituals

You will also receive these achievements if you have upgraded from an old console to a new console (from PS3 to PS4 or Xbox 360 to Xbox One). However, you must have correctly completed the account import. Everything you did afterward on the old console will not be considered for the seal book.

Otherwise, you can look back at the last stream about Age of Triumph. All information about it can be found at the provided link. Next week, the weekly rituals will be discussed. Among other things, the Nightfall Strike is supposed to change slightly. The Age of Triumph still has some secrets to tell, some of which you will discover only in the game.

Age of Triumph will be released on March 28.

Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds starts in Early Access – Trailer, Release Date

The new battle royale shooter Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds is launching in early access.

Brendan Greene, better known as Player Unknown, started as a modder for Arma and created the “Battle Royale” mode there. This is a concept from the Japanese novel “Battle Royale,” which was later adapted into a film. The “Hunger Games” are also based on this idea of a massive and chaotic battle.

It is a fight “everyone against everyone,” where the area being fought in is getting smaller. The outer regions crumble away, turning into a death zone, either through toxic gas, fires, natural disasters, or other mechanisms. Fighters grab weapons or other scattered items (also loot from killed opponents) and go after each other until everything culminates in a final fight in the center of the map: only one can survive.

This mode is currently popular on Twitch, and many different games have adapted it over the years. These often became the popular “Steam formats,” where prize money is also at stake. Games like ARK: Survival Evolved and H1Z1 rely on this mode.

Battle Royale Swamp

Player Unknown, the founder of this battle royale idea, has now realized this mode in his own game, which bears his name. And Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds is about to hit early access on PC. It is being developed by Bluehole, the creators behind Tera. The previous betas have already garnered some attention on Twitch.

What you need to know for the early access launch of Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds

Paragon: New heroine Yin is into whips, throws projectiles back

With the melee carry Yin, the action MOBA Paragon could become a nightmare for opposing ranged fighters: as projectiles return straight to the enemy.

Paragon is available for PlayStation 4 and PC as a free-to-play title. After a much publicized change in December 2016, where action and faster combat were put in the foreground, Paragon is flourishing and has significantly increased its numbers.

Paragon has had great graphics and high production values from the start. After all, behind the project are Epic Games, the creators of the “Gears of War” series. Now the gameplay also seems to fit the spirit of the times.

Paragon continues its mission to bring many new heroes to the action MOBA in 2017. Approximately every three weeks, a new hero is set to be released.

This time, a melee carry named Yin is on the menu.

Yin relies on a kind of “laser whip” and creates quite a whirlwind and chaos. Wind magic underlines her skill set. In the video, Epic Games introduces the new melee carry in German.

  • Backlash – Forward-facing AE damage that can knock back projectiles
  • Ultimate Hindering Whirlwind – Yin surrounds herself with a whirlwind that slows down enemies and hostile projectiles around her
