The new Dewbauchee Specter is now available to you in GTA 5 Online. We will show you what it costs and how you can tune it.
Another car has been released for the current GTA 5 Online DLC “Import/Export”. This DLC revolves around expensive cars that you can steal, modify, and resell. New cars and motorcycles are periodically added to your private collection.
Last week, the Progen Itali GTB was released, which offers many cool tuning options. The new Dewbauchee Specter can be visually enhanced and fits nicely into most racing car collections.
Dewbauchee Specter Custom Tuning
From today, you can buy the Dewbauchee Specter in GTA 5 Online and tune it at Benny’s Original Motor Works. The car costs 599,000 GTA$ to purchase. The custom tuning at Benny’s costs an additional 252,000 GTA$ without discount.
Currently, there is a decent 25% discount at Benny’s workshop, which makes the custom upgrade cheaper for all cars. The custom upgrade for the Specter now costs only 189,000 GTA$.
In the custom version, you then have the choice between:
14 different front bumpers
Fenders in various colors and materials like carbon
Dual exhaust pipes for the right sound
Speedometer displays
Sports seats
Steering wheel types like rally, sprint, or formula racing
and many other tuning options.
In the video by Almighty Gamer you can see the tuning options of the Dewbauchee Specter:
Downloaded, installed, and started the free team shooter Paladins. And lost. This has to get better! With these 20 quick tips and tricks, you’ll gain important knowledge in just a few minutes to soon achieve victories as an experienced warrior.
Paladins is a multiplayer online shooter by Hi-Rez (SMITE) and is regarded in gaming circles as a quality Free2Play alternative to Overwatch. The title has been in open beta for PC since late last year and is continuously being developed.
Via Steam, Paladins is currently achieving impressive numbers, ranking among the top 15 games in terms of active player counts. Paladins will soon be released for PS4 and Xbox One, likely providing a further boost in growth.
The hardest recipes in World of Warcraft are extremely rare – is this intentional or a bug?
In the recent developer livestream of World of Warcraft, various topics were discussed that continue to generate interest within the community. Paul Kubit answered numerous questions alongside Community Manager Josh Allen (“Lore”). Particularly fascinating were the responses regarding the different professions.
Players frequently criticize that the “Rank 3” recipes for most professions are far too difficult to obtain. Some are practically “given away” by vendors, while others are only available through massive luck. Alchemists may sometimes need to craft the same potions thousands of times to learn the final rank of their potion.
The developers do not see this as a major problem. Aside from the feeling of “completeness,” the Rank 3 recipes would only provide a small savings, thereby increasing profit when selling. The basic item can still be crafted, so there is no compulsion. Toward the end of the expansion, they might increase the drop chance for the recipes, allowing collectors to catch up.
Some recipes, which can only be obtained through PvP, might also come from other sources in the future. They understand the frustration of players who simply want to craft a nice piece of armor but have no desire for PvP skirmishes.
Lastly, there were considerations about whether to implement a third profession slot per character. This would be reserved, for example, only for gathering professions. However, this is currently just a pipe dream and still far from implementation.
Cortyn says: My alchemy elf also quietly cries to herself when she has to craft potions of the whispered pact again. However, I have accepted that I will eventually obtain Rank 3 by chance and have given up on targeted farming – the profit simply isn’t great enough to justify the time invested. How about you? Do you have all the recipes you wanted, are you still searching, or have you already given up?
Rare will launch another alpha of the upcoming pirate online game Sea of Thieves at the end of this week, allowing more fans to participate.
On the weekend of January 21st and 22nd, another technical alpha of the pirate game Sea of Thieves will take place. The developers are sending out new invitations for this event. So if you haven’t had the chance to participate in the alpha yet, you might get lucky and be selected this time.
However, you need to register on the official website. Apparently, the alpha will only take place on Xbox One. If you have already signed up but have not received an invitation, keep an eye on your inbox, as one might arrive this time.
Life as a Pirate
Then you will have the opportunity to preview the pirate adventure and provide feedback to the developers. You will get a first glimpse into pirate life, and you can experience what it feels like to steer a ship, manage a crew, and search for treasures.
You will get a sense of how Sea of Thieves feels. For many, it might be a change to play an online game that doesn’t rely on many windows and additional displays. More details about the alpha, such as the exact duration and start time, will be announced by Rare soon.
According to current reports, it should not be long before the official release of Sea of Thieves takes place. According to Rare, the launch is still planned for this February for both Xbox One and Windows 10 PC.

Ranking in Hearthstone will become more enjoyable, but Arena veterans can also breathe a sigh of relief – more fun and variety are expected.
Since the release of Hearthstone, there has been criticism of the ranked game mode and the Arena as well. Over the past year, the developers have repeatedly mentioned plans to overhaul both game modes to provide a better gaming experience for both newcomers and veterans. Now Team 5 is slowly getting specific. In the latest developer video, Ben Brode and Dean Ayala discussed future changes.
Arena: Fewer cards, rotation like in Ranked
The Arena has changed in recent months. Although more and more cards have been released, all of which are almost accessible in the Arena, the decks are becoming increasingly similar. The solution here is simple and effective: The same restrictions apply in the Arena as in the ranked “Standard” mode. This would mean that only the most recent expansions are in the card pool, which massively restricts the available cards and thus constantly provides fresh games.
At the same time, the number of cards that are “common” and the number of neutral classic and basic cards will be reduced. This further decreases the chance of having “boring” or useless cards, such as the Magmawüter.
Ranked: More stars, more save points
Drastic changes are also coming to Ranked, the ranked game mode. Above all, climbing the ranks should be more enjoyable and not turn into a frustrating grind every month.
Those who are rated Rank 10 or better at the end of a season should not start the next season again at Rank 17 or 18 – therefore, there will be more stars to earn. At the same time, the developers want to incorporate several “checkpoints” where players can neither lose ranking points, even if they incur losses. For example, if someone reaches “Rank 15”, they cannot drop below this level – in theory.
No specific dates for the changes have been announced yet, but they will likely arrive with the first expansion in 2017 – in spring.
The latest update OB41 for Paladins is live. The patch expands the team shooter with the new map “Stone Keep” and some new skins. We present the highlights from the patch notes.
Studio Hi-Rez has released the patch OB41 for Paladins for download. The update is live since today and is 1.3 GB in size.
New weapons and emotes for the champions are coming.
The item “Cauterize” has been adjusted and now has a duration of 1.5 seconds instead of 2. If you have multiple “Cauterize,” they will no longer stack. Many players have found “Cauterize” to be too strong so far.
The probably most important thing: A new map comes to Paladins, the fairy-tale Stone Keep.
Here are the highlights of patch OB41 in the video:

Paladins Update – What has been adjusted in patch OB41
Hi-Rez removes the “Epic and Legendary Founders Pack” from the game. Instead, Daily and Weekly Quests are introduced. With those, you can earn bonus gold by taking on challenges like “First Win of the Day” in the Daily Quest. In the Weekly Quests, you have to complete more specific tasks like playing 2 games as a Flanker. The bonus to be gained for this is also higher.
Further adjustments: Players will no longer be put into the “Combat” mode by using sprays. And the animations of “Evie Soar”, “Getting Pulled,” and “Androxus Ult” should no longer get stuck with the patch.
Siege Mode
In the “Siege” mode, your team now receives 300 Credits when you capture an objective. If you successfully defend a “Payload Push”, there are no credits anymore.

You now start with 1000 Credits, it was previously 400. The credits have increased from 1 to 2 per second.
Supports
For supporters, there has been a major change that should have a significant impact on the game and the choice of role. As a Support, your ultimates are charged by healing your team with OB41.
Champions
These champs receive an adjustment through OB41:
Barik – Increased health bar
Fernando – Fixed mvp pose
Grohk – Increased healing
Sha Lin – Fixed “Impaler Arrow”
Skye – Increased ammunition “Wrist Crossbow”

New Map: Stone Keep

In Stone Keep, you will find “Stealth Grass”, which makes you invisible to enemies when entering. Stone Keep resembles a fairy-tale castle and is designed in a fantasy style.

A streamer popularized by Destiny fears that a new feature from Twitch could completely annihilate his hard-earned free time.
Professor Broman is his stream name. In real life, his name is Ben Bowman. He became popular by streaming the MMO shooter Destiny on Twitch. It even earned him a spot in the Guinness Book of Records. He provides a behind-the-scenes look at a professional streamer for the U.S. site Polygon. And that look is frightening.
“Always be online,” his mentor ManVsGame advised him when he started on Twitch, Bowman recalls. And he was indeed almost always online.
168 hours are in a week. Bowman is expected to be online most of that time. He quickly noted that this was the key to a successful streaming career. Only by always being online and pushing himself to the limit could the hope of “the dream” come true. The hope of being able to live off Twitch.
Broman (left) at the live reveal of Prison of Elders.
Go online immediately and stream!
At first, he streamed 12 to 16 hours a day. 7 days a week for two years. Only in this way could he maintain the growth of his channel, Bowman says. He spent every waking hour streaming, except for time in the gym and when he was making himself something to eat. He lost contact with friends and family. The stress drove his mentor ManVsGame to speed.
Only later, when Bowman had 400,000 followers, did he allow himself to take Saturdays off. He thought he had earned that day. But every statistic and his ambition screamed at him: “Your channel is collapsing. Go online immediately and stream. You’re throwing away your hard work!” Because Bowman was losing followers during that time.
In the first months with the free day, it was mainly about fighting against that inner voice that prevented him from shutting down.
Me: Work life balance is important in all jobs including streaming. Viewer: You’re just afraid to work hard, you’ll be gone soon pic.twitter.com/YHP1TmhHrb
Now Boman is working on a new idea from Twitch. “IRL” – this is a new category where streamers can still live stream in a vlog style while on the go. This is meant to allow fans to follow their favorite streamers even when they are not sitting at the computer, but out and about.
Bowman believes this is dangerous. It would have tempted him back then to “work” during the little time he wasn’t streaming, and to stress himself further if he had to entertain fans in the gym or while preparing a meal.
Bowman struggles with the work-life balance on Twitch. He fears that a new generation of streamers might grow up without the free hours he still had left.
Bowman explains that the mantra “Always be on Twitch, always be live” is powerful and the best way to reach and grow an audience. The only one who can ultimately turn off the camera is also the one who benefits the most from having the camera always on.
If you turn your hobby into a profession, then you don’t have to work a day – Not true
Schuhmann says: For many people, it’s certainly hard to understand how Twitch can almost consume someone like Bowman. But when your life and gaming become your profession – where are the boundaries? Where is time for private life? For many, it is certainly a dream to turn a hobby into a profession. Then you wouldn’t have to work a day, they say.
But: If your life is your job, then you work around the clock.
Professor Broman had his big appearance in Destiny in May 2015, during a memorable livestream for “Prison of Elders” at the Bungie studio.
In Destiny we take a look at the videos of the week: Three videos from Bungie, which we complement with videos from our community.
Bungie is back from the winter break! This means not only that we will receive hot info on Destiny in 2017 soon, but also that we will be provided with entertaining or impressive videos weekly.
This week there are many “How to” videos: YouTubers show you how the “pros” accomplish certain tasks – of course always with a wink.
The first “Video of the Week” title in 2017 could be claimed by a Guardian from our readership. Congratulations to Juma Plays! In his video, he shows how to complete a story mission:

Last week, we already showed this scene where he jumps down from the Felwinter Peak onto Sepiks Perfected. By the way, the mission is the first story mission of “Rise of Iron”. In the meantime, the video has already achieved over 50,000 views. Impressive!
Bungie gave a commendation to this video. Here, you are shown how to reflect a shot from a Golden Gun back at the opponent. But beware: Crazy laughter ahead:

In Heroes of the Storm , it stays Warcraft-like – the next hero will be Valeera Sanguinar.
After the troll Zul’jin was added to the roster of Heroes of the Storm a few weeks ago, the developers are already working on the next character to enter the Nexus. As revealed on Twitter, it will be none other than Valeera Sanguinar.

Valeera is a Blood Elf and was imprisoned alongside Varian Wrynn as a gladiator. Since that time, they have been good friends, and her loyalty also extends to his son, Anduin Wrynn. Aside from that, her loyalties are neither with the Horde nor the Alliance, but only with her own interests and friends. In World of Warcraft, rogues can encounter her in the Order Hall, where she hands out quests and participates in some missions herself.
In Hearthstone, Valeera is the default rogue, currently ruining the fun for some opponents with a pirate deck. Otherwise, she has made several appearances in the various comics of World of Warcraft, many of which no longer belong to the canon of the story.
While nothing is known about her abilities in Heroes of the Storm yet, it is to be expected that Valeera – similar to Nova and Zeratul – will have stealth to fulfill her role as a rogue.
There is still no specific release date for Valeera. If Blizzard maintains its current pace, we should be able to see her on the PTR at the latest next week (or not – stealth and all).
In The Division, you do not need to be in the terminal to start the Survival mode.
Now for a quick tip that will make the lives of many agents a little more enjoyable.
If you want to start a survival session, you normally go to the terminal, run to the entrance marked “Survival,” and select the player search.
However, there is a trick that allows you to skip the way or the fast travel to the terminal:
Open the map,
Select the terminal,
Press the button for player search (Xbox Y, PS4 Triangle),
Select Survival now
And begin the player search with PvP or PvE.
This way, you can enter the queue for a Survival match without having to fly to the terminal first. You can start the player search anywhere on the map – except in the Dark Zone.
This trick will surely be known to some of you, but for many, it will save several fast travels in the future. On reddit, the user who shared this trick is showered with praise. One reader writes: “MIND –> BLOWN“
How to successfully finish a Survival session is explained in our Survival Guide.

Revelation Online starts on January 19 for the third closed beta (CBT3). In this, you can expect not only the familiar challenges but also new dungeons, PvP areas, and revised older instances.
Revelation Online is coming soon. Starting January 19, you can immerse yourself once again in the world of Nuanor in the third beta of Revelation Online and face old and new challenges. To keep you entertained, there are three new dungeons up to the new maximum level of 69, along with revised older instances, new quests, and events.
New Dungeons up to Level 69 and PvP Sieges
From level 50, just one level above the previous maximum, you can expect the great stronghold. It features four bosses. Continuing from level 60, you will face off against crazed machines in the Mech Citadel. By the way, at level 50, you can also visit the Tower of Torments, where you have to clear seven floors full of bosses within 30 minutes. Additionally, the dungeons “Fog Valley,” “Trial of the Four Kings,” and “Dream Trials” will receive new elements.

If you’re less into PvE, you can look forward to exciting PvP modes. For example, 50 players can compete against each other in the guild war and determine which guild is the strongest. Additionally, there are a total of 12 locations you can besiege as a guild. The number of participating heroes will determine the server population, and according to the publisher My.com, it could be up to a thousand players.
It doesn’t always have to be orcs and wizards or aliens. The MMORPG Identity places you in a realistic game world. In this world, you can build a second life.
Identity is set in a fictional area of the USA. How you spend your life there is up to you. Do you want to just have a regular job, buy a little house, or become a gangster who takes control of entire territories? You decide. The developers of the MMO have now revealed some new details about their online game.
Criminal or law-abiding?
For example, crafting plays an important role. You have the opportunity to become a drug lord. But to do that, you start small and produce meth in your garage. To do this, you’ll need methylamine. To get it, you’ll have to break into a corresponding warehouse and steal the stuff. However, there is a chance that you’ll run into the police while doing so.
Or you open a shop, decorating the display to attract as many customers as possible. Those who pay in cash in the game carry the money in their inventory and can also be robbed during a heist. Those caught by the police end up in prison and can try to escape from there.
As is fitting for a realistic world, there is also a day-night cycle. Every three hours in real-time, the sun will set. However, the night lasts only one hour. By the way, you can also visit a cinema and watch a movie there. While the game world is essentially designed to have almost no loading times, there will be certain buildings – like the cinema – that will need to be loaded.
PvP should be fair
You should be able to develop your character based on skills to feel like you’re getting better. However, for the sake of fairness, no skills will affect PvP. Food plays a significant role, and those who choose the profession of a cook will supply other players with food and can thus become wealthy.
The MMORPG Identity is set to be released in 2018. Until release, the launch of several modules like a social hub or a racing module is planned. These modules will need to be purchased to finance the development of the online game. Identity draws its first comparisons to Second Life.

The Artcraft Studios have announced a change to the resource system of the PvP MMORPG Crowfall.
In Crowfall, every single resource is supposed to be important. It won’t be the case that you mine copper first and the better you get, the higher quality material you find, making copper eventually just trash. Copper always remains important in the game.
For example, it is possible to combine different resources to create alloys for items, which thereby gain different stats. In this case, copper would also play an important role as it adds a special property to the alloy.
The mining of resources had to be adjusted
However, the system for mining resources did not harmonize with this basic concept. It was a standard MMO system where it was harder to mine gold and you needed better equipment for higher quality materials. The question the developers asked was why, for example, you need a pickaxe for gold, which does not work for copper or silver. So the system was overhauled.
The quality of a resource is now crucial and determines how easy or difficult it is to mine it. The type of resource does not matter. The difficulty of the campaign you are in, as well as the type and location of the parcel where the resource node is located, determine the quality of the resource.
Quality is important
As an example: Rank 1 copper veins never provide better resource quality than “Poor” (gray). In contrast, you receive from rank 10 copper veins rare (blue), epic (purple), and – very rarely – legendary (orange) copper quality. The tool does not break down into ranks but has different quality levels. You simply use picks for mining, hammers for breaking stone, axes for logging, knives for skinning, and shovels for looting.
Thus, the difficulty of mining resource nodes depends on the quality of the node. And the quality of the tool determines how hard or easy it is to mine a node. This also leads to the manufacturing of tools becoming more important in the MMORPG Crowfall.
12 kills within one second? With D.Va, anything is possible in Overwatch .
Every week, absurd, exciting, or simply funny moments happen in Overwatch , often captured in a “Play of the Game”. We searched social media and picked three special highlights for you. Enjoy our 3 “Play of the Game” moments of the week in Overwatch!
Widowmaker is not exactly known as the great deceiver – at least not regarding her gameplay. Player oCrispyyy impressively demonstrates on the Nepal map how to elegantly feign one’s death to deliver a clean headshot from behind. Naturally, in style, right in the air. Soldier: 76 must have been quite annoyed at that moment.

Getting a big kill streak with D.Va’s ultimate isn’t always that easy. Usually, the opposing team is shielded by a Reinhardt or is calmly hiding behind a cover that protects them from the deadly explosion.
Occasionally, however, everything goes according to plan, and the bomb from Lumae rains down on the unsuspecting heads of the enemies. But what if the opposing D.Va had the same idea at that exact moment? The result is 12 dead players. For 10 seconds, there was simply silence.

The last entry comes from a Mei, who simply didn’t feel like waiting for her team. To get the payload (or in this case, rather the “meiload”) to the destination, she promptly locks out the opposing team with an ice wall and prolongs the escort with a cleverly placed Blizzard. Although the opposing McCree manages to take Mei out in the last second of the game – it’s too late.

Patch 7.1.5 for World of Warcraft: Legion is here and once again the DPS values are being reshuffled. Read here which classes can rejoice over amazing damage and which types of heroes are crying in the corner in the WoW DPS ranking.
New patch, new DPS happiness! At least for some players, Patch 7.1.5 should bring great joy, as their heroes are boasting phenomenal DPS values after the update. Other gamers are less happy, as their class has taken a hit. But who is the winner and who is the loser in the DPS race of Patch 7.1.5?
DPS Ranking List – Based on the Raid “Emerald Nightmare”
To crown the best DPS hero, we took a look at the statistics on the Warcraftlogs site and chose the raid “Emerald Nightmare” as the basis. The result was that the Shadow Priest clearly dominated. And that, even though his over-skill “Descent into Madness” has been nerfed! The dark priest is still incredibly strong and far ahead of the second-placed Retribution Paladin.
Next come the Affliction Warlock, the Destruction Demon Hunter, and the Windwalker Monk, all of whom are quite similar in DPS. In the midfield are, among others, the Elemental Shaman and the Fury Warrior, while the Marksman Hunter begins to decline. The two remaining hunters and the unfortunate Feral Druid ultimately lead the DPS bottom list. They deal the least damage and thus have a real problem to get value in the raid.

But before any player of Hunter and Druids now deletes their hero and creates a Shadow Priest: These numbers are merely average values from countless raid runs. Individual raid performance can therefore vary significantly.
Did you have other experiences with DPS with Patch 7.1.5? Let us know and write it in the comments! As soon as the next patch for WoW is released, we will publish a new DPS list.
In The Division, numerous agents voted on what they particularly wish for 1.6 and Last Stand.
We are expected to receive more information about the future of The Division this week. The ETF phase is over, and next Thursday the “State of the Game” should take place again.
Currently, little has been officially confirmed regarding 1.6 and “Last Stand”: There will be innovations in PvP, such as a Dark Zone leaderboard. All other “hints” about the next update originate from leaks, speculation, or datamining results.
Until we have all official information about 1.6 and Last Stand, there is still time to look at the wishes of the community. What do players expect from the next content update? Which features are yearned for?
In the last few days, there was a voting on reddit about this. We present the top 10 community wishes in German.
Loadouts are important to many agents
In this voting, numerous suggestions were provided from which one could choose their five “must-haves”. A total of 2325 agents selected their top 5. This resulted in this top ten list:
Loadouts: This allows you to switch between created builds with just a few clicks, for example between your PvE and your PvP loadout.
PvP: A Dark Zone where you can choose between PvE and PvP versions. Similar to Survival. The PvP version provides bonuses.
PvP Arena: An activity only for PvP, preferably with private matches.
New Dark Zone classes: With the idea that 7 and 8 become a Rikers stronghold, 9-11 should be an area of the Cleaners, with high contamination and environmental hazards, and 12 and 13 should be occupied by the LMB.
A companion app to manage items on the go.
PvP: More events in the Dark Zone. For example, a Hunters event or helicopter crashes.
Open World (not Dark Zone): Increased enemy density.
PvP: Player search for solo agents.
Expanded map, along with more story missions.
Events in the open world: Time-limited events, such as faction wars.
Only on the further placements do wishes like an expanded stash or a raid, i.e., a large-scale group activity, follow.
Are you surprised by this list or do you mostly agree?
In Destiny, a 3D artist shows how detailed the Exos can look.
In Bungie’s MMO shooter, there are three playable races: Humans, Awoken, and Exos. The Exos, in particular, still raise many questions in year 3 of Destiny, as little is known about them. They were once created for battle and are powerful, tireless machines with consciousness. Those forged in the Light of the Traveler now fight as Guardians.
There are several well-known Exos in the Destiny universe, such as Banshee-44, Cayde-6, Lakshmi-2, or Shiro-4.
But none of them look as good as the Exos in the following images! These were designed by 3D artist Mike Jensen, who worked for Bungie for four years before moving on to the VR studio Polyarc.
Look Me in the Eyes, Exo
Especially impressive are his detailed 3D works of the Exo heads, which stare at you with glowing eyes. However, there are more cool models. See for yourself:
Many of Jensen’s 3D models were published on his artstation page.
