“CP-Changes” in Pokémon GO have changed the Max CP. We will show you the new maximum combat points of all Pokémon in the game.
Numerous trainers report: “My Pokémon are suddenly stronger! The CP has increased!” What is going on?
On November 21, a surprising change was announced for Pokémon GO, in which the combat points of the Pokémon were adjusted. The developers changed the values for almost every Pokémon. Once weak Pokémon can now become significantly stronger. This is intended to bring more variety to arena battles. In our table, we show you the maximum combat points for each individual Pokémon.
Changed Max CP / Max CP of each Pokémon
The combat points (CP) of your Pokémon indicate how strong they are. Recently, there have been changes to these values, causing Pokémon to be buffed and nerfed. In our table, you will find out how many CP each of your Pokémon can now achieve at level 40. If you are still below level 40, you can use this table to determine the potential strength of your Pokémon.
Oops, unfortunately this table is no longer available.
If you are looking for a specific Pokémon, you can sort this table by Pokédex number or by name. You can also arrange the table by CP. We have listed here the 15 strongest Pokémon, measured by Max CP, for you.
With the changes in CP values, there are now new possibilities in arenas. A larger selection of defenders or attackers provides entirely new tactics for holding or taking over an arena spot. The developers hope that the balance changes will bring more variety. Trainers should also expect that the CP of their favorite Pokémon will be adjusted in the future if the developers are dissatisfied with them.
With a Pokémon GO development calculator, you can find out how high the CP of your Pokémon would be after you evolve them. This way, you can find out if an evolution is worth it before you spend the candies on it. We present one of these development calculators here.

The introduction of the Free2Play mode in the space MMO EVE Online pays off for CCP Games.
On the day the patch goes live, the number of concurrently active players increased to over 50,000. This surpasses the peak number of concurrent players from 2015, when at the height 45,637 players were online at the same time. However, EVE Online still does not return to the all-time high of over 65,000 players in 2013 with this number. Nevertheless, the change in the payment model has paid off for the development studio.
Are all of these really new players?
Nevertheless, this number does not indicate whether they are new or returning players. It is also possible that among the new accounts, there are second accounts from subscribers creating an additional character. Furthermore, it remains to be seen how these numbers will stabilize over time. As the past has shown, MMORPGs that switch from a subscription to a Free2Play model experience a significant influx of players in the first weeks and months. However, this does not last long. The excitement of trying something new fades relatively quickly. Some may not enjoy the game and stop playing.
Only time will tell how successful the transition really is
Only the coming weeks will show how the introduction of Alpha clones will impact the population of EVE Online in the medium and long term. It will also be interesting to see how many of the Alpha clone players switch to Omega status and subscribe. Companies hope that new players will become paying players, either by purchasing in-game currency or by signing up for a subscription.
Are you among the players who are now trying EVE Online through the Free2Play model? If so, what have your gaming experiences been so far? Let us know in the comments.
The WP values in Pokémon GO are an indicator of the strength of individual Pokémon. These are the top 15!
The first clue to check how strong a Pokémon is, is the WP value (or in English: CP value). The higher this value, the stronger the Pokémon. Each monster has its own maximum WP value, which cannot be exceeded even with power-ups. From these values, we have compiled a “Top 15” list that ranks the Pokémon with the highest maximum WP values.
What the WP values in Pokémon GO mean, we have already explained to you: It is a summary of various hidden values. In most cases, a higher WP value in Pokémon GO means that the Pokémon is stronger. Additionally, there are base values for attack, defense, and stamina, which can make a difference among the same Pokémon with the same CP value.
In this updated “Top 15 list”, you can see the Pokémon sorted by their WP values:
Mewtwo – Max WP: 4760
Dragonite – Max WP: 3581
Snorlax – Max WP: 3355
Zapdos – Max WP: 3330
Rhydon – Max WP: 3300
Gyarados – Max WP: 3281
Articuno – Max WP: 3272
Vaporeon – Max WP: 3157
Mew – Max WP: 3090
Lapras – Max WP: 2980
Articuno – Max WP: 2933
Golem – Max WP: 2916
Exeggutor – Max WP: 2916
Flareon – Max WP: 2904
Machamp – Max WP: 2889
Keep in mind that other factors in battle are also important, such as the various attacks that a Pokémon can learn, which can influence the outcome of a battle. For this, we have already listed the strongest attacks of individual Pokémon in Pokémon GO.
By the way: The Pokémon with the lowest maximum WP value is neither Pidgey nor Caterpie – The bottom of this table is Magikarp with a maximum WP value of 220.
The survival game Conan Exiles has received a release date for PC and Xbox One. It will enter Early Access.
On January 31, Conan Exiles will enter Early Access, as announced by the developers at Funcom. This is initially only for PC. The Xbox One version is expected to follow in spring 2017. Sony still has reservations about Early Access for any game, which has been frustrating some developers for a while.
A new trailer is also in tow.

Conan Exiles aims to conquer the survival genre, just as League of Legends did with the MOBA genre
Joel Bylos, the game director, has been known to Funcom fans for a while. Most recently, he was responsible for The Secret World, before moving on to a then-still-secret project. Bylos says: “The time is right for Conan to conquer the survival genre.” Conan Exiles is not an empty sandbox, he reveals, but rich in secrets waiting to be uncovered.
Conan Exiles was originally planned for September 2016. However, Funcom postponed it to improve quality. In the meantime, the Norwegian studio had received a capital injection. Conan Exiles fits perfectly into Funcom’s new, promising strategy. They have a good understanding of the material – Funcom has been managing the MMORPG Age of Conan for years. Now they are betting on a breakthrough in a trend genre.
After all, the survival genre is quite popular and filled with several titles. However, there is a lack of a clear favorite, like WoW is for MMORPGs or League of Legends is for MOBAs. This favorite – it should become Conan Exiles, at least if you ask the Norwegians at Funcom.
For more about Conan Exiles and a whole bunch of screenshots, you can find them in this article:
In The Division, the new mode Survival is available. We provide tips and tricks on how to master the new challenge.
On November 22, the Survival mode was released on Xbox One and PC. The DLC for PS4 arrives on December 20. This new mode is a kind of “Battle Royale”: You, along with 23 other agents, are in a hostile environment, fighting against enemies and the cold, hunger, and thirst. You try by all means to get into the Dark Zone and survive.
To ensure you are not overwhelmed at the beginning, we provide you with a guide that you can refer to. Which weapon should I use? What skills should I rely on? And what should I actually do first when I spawn?
The First Steps in Survival – How to Start Survival
“Survival” is a new mode that is completely separate from the rest of the game. You start a session by going to the terminal at the door labeled “Survival.” Now choose whether to play in a group or solo and whether you want the PvE or PvP variant.
After a short cutscene, which you can skip, you are off. Right near you is crafting material that you should look for. With this, you can craft the first clothing that protects you against the cold. Don’t run out into the snowstorm without warm clothes! At the beginning, the cold is your greatest enemy.
You can now decide whether you want to head to the helicopter crash site or not. There you will find good equipment, but other agents will also head there. If you play PvP, you need to prepare for fights with other players over the items. However, even in PvE, the items are accessible to everyone. Others can snatch them away right in front of your eyes.
Three Important Things for Survival
You should pay attention to these three things as you progress through the game:
Water: Your agent is thirsty. When he drinks water, he better recognizes items and crates nearby. This enables you to farm the gear you need to survive more efficiently. The crates are sometimes well hidden. Without water, you will run right past them without even noticing them. Therefore, drink enough to have the items marked.
Food: Look for edible items like energy bars to regenerate your health. If you’re hungry, you won’t recover. Eat only when you have low health points. Otherwise, you waste the food.
Medications: Your agent is infected and only has one hour left to live. Search for medications and painkillers to keep him alive longer. However, you don’t need to worry too much about this. An hour is a lot of time, and you will encounter plenty of medications on your journey.
Crafting Equipment and Weapons – The Best Weapons in The Division for Survival
There are several safe houses spread across the map. The first agent to arrive there receives special items. Additionally, you will find crafting stations. These are particularly important in Survival mode as you need to craft your gear.
Here you also craft your weapons from weapon parts. In Survival, light machine guns are said to be outstanding. They may currently be the “best weapons” for this mode, as they come with a large magazine, solid precision, and good range. Moreover, machine guns in The Division are also easy to control even without mods. Choose an M60 or M249.
Since you don’t want to get too close to enemies – after all, you must start over if you die – a precision rifle is recommended as a secondary weapon. However, a significant disadvantage is: In a snowstorm and fog, it is difficult to see the enemies from a great distance. Especially in the PvP variant, SMGs and shotguns are also recommended for close combat.
Focus on Toughness and Skills – Defense is the Best Offense
In Survival mode, everything revolves around survival, as the name suggests. Toughness is therefore the most important attribute and should be prioritized over a high firearm value.
At the beginning, your agent has no skills. You will also need to craft these. With First Aid and the Pulse, you can’t go wrong, but other skills are useful too, such as the Ballistic Shield or the Turret. Both skills ensure that fewer bullets hit your agent.
Let’s Go to the Dark Zone
While you fight for survival, do not lose sight of your goal: the Dark Zone. The closer you get to this zone, the stronger the opponents will become. So do not run directly into doom, but equip your agent with better items as you slowly approach the Dark Zone. If you don’t feel ready for that yet, turn back and farm items from lower-level enemies. At landmarks, you will find enemies that are more likely to drop good items.
Within the Dark Zone, you will find sealed containers scattered that you can collect. If you manage to extract these at the end, they will serve as additional rewards for the Survival mode. You can carry up to 6 crates.
Now grab the remedy in the Dark Zone. Craft the flare gun with the Division tech that comes with the remedy, and use it at an extraction point. But be careful: Hunters will appear now. One Hunter per agent at the extraction point. These enemies are tough to defeat, so be careful. They can use various skills and even heal themselves. Stay in cover and defeat them.

An American mother breaks all chains in Overwatch and reaches Level 1600.
Each of us has that one slightly crazy friend who is far beyond Level 500 in Overwatch, making you wonder: How on earth can someone invest so much time in the game? Meanwhile, you hang somewhere around 200 or 300, and even that took several hundred hours in the game.
However, none of this compares to the player Sylphea, who has now reached a level of 1600, making her likely the first in the American region.
1600. Do it again, please!
The comments on Reddit are mixed, ranging from “Congratulations, impressive achievement” to “You have no life, get a job” – the wonderful sides of the internet. Others take it with humor, like a user who answered the question “What do these people do before their game is released?” with: “They wait for their game to be released.”
The guys among you need to be very brave: The enduring hero is a woman who regularly plays with her sons. When the hobby spans generations and the whole family gets involved, leveling up almost happens by itself. If you want, you can watch Sylphea on her Twitch channel while gaming – at least most of the time.
Cortyn says: Whether viewed critically or with excitement, reaching Level 1600 in Overwatch is certainly an impressive achievement. If you do some math, Overwatch released nearly 4000 hours ago, making a playtime of around 1400 hours seem even crazier. Nevertheless: Hats off, an impressive accomplishment.
The developers of Battlefield 1 have now addressed the graphics issues that players have noticed since the last patch.
The major November update of Battlefield 1 brought several changes to the game. In addition to a Battlefest, there were several balance and gameplay changes that you can read about in the patch notes for patch 1.04. However, this update also introduced some issues that were likely not planned. Players of the PS4 and PC versions of Battlefield 1 are noticing a graphics downgrade. Ultra settings feel like medium settings. Now the developers are addressing the issue.
There were performance adjustments
The visible graphics downgrade in Battlefield 1 is troubling players. On Twitter and in other social networks, players are contacting the developers asking why there was a downgrade in graphics on PC and PS4. Now David Sirland, producer at DICE LA, has commented on the problems.

David Sirland says that there has been no downgrade. However, he adds in another tweet that changes to textures and their streaming have been made. This can lead to different textures being loaded in a lower resolution depending on the situation. This addresses issues such as holes in the environment, missing weapons at spawn, and similar problems.
FPS issues in Battlefield 1
Many players are also reporting FPS issues since the release of the last Battlefield 1 patch. However, this is said to have nothing to do with the aforementioned changes to the textures. According to Sirland, this is a completely different issue.

Fixing graphics issues in Battlefield 1 – Workaround (Downgrade)
In the Battlefield forums, solutions have already been offered that can supposedly fix the downgrade issue. The player cdub4784 writes that he has “restored” the “correct” graphics in Battlefield 1 with this trick.
He uses the latest Nvidia driver and sets the graphics settings to “automatic” for about 20 seconds. Then he resets them to the settings he wants to play with. After making these adjustments, he has achieved the desired graphics.
If this trick doesn’t work, the user also offers another workaround:
Open the Battlefield 1 folder in your Documents
Open the Settings folder
Delete everything there except: PROFSAVE and PROFSAVE_backup. These files are related to your campaign
Start Battlefield 1
Reset the quality to your preferred settings
Let us know if these workarounds helped you.
The developers have responded well to criticism so far. After players complained that the rental servers have too few features, there was positive feedback from DICE.

When is the best moment to acquire cheap players in FUT 17? When are the “Market Crashes”? When is it particularly worthwhile to invest the valuable coins? A good time is: This week.
But beware: It is nearly impossible to predict exact price developments in FUT 17. This year, there are several new cards that FUT Champions rewards and surprising Squad Building Challenges, which strongly influence the prices. Nevertheless, it can already be observed: Prices are falling!
The biggest influence on the market: Events
Many factors determine player prices on the transfer market. However, the biggest influence comes from the events that take place throughout the year. Knowing when these events occur and how they impact the market can earn you thousands of coins. Often there is a Market Crash. Why?
The fans of FUT are on the hunt for the big pack luck. “At some point, I must get a Messi or a Ronaldo in my set!” During such FUT events, lucrative pack offers with particularly many rare players usually come. To afford these sets, players are put up for sale on the transfer market.
People sell their cards, the supply on the market increases, causing player prices to drop. The “bigger” the event, the more the prices fall.
If the start of the event is known in advance, prices slowly decrease in the days leading up to it. If EA Sports surprises with an event, prices drop sharply on that day. A drastic market crash can be observed.
This is how the market develops towards Black Friday
Next Friday, on November 25th, is Black Friday. Many FUT fans are aware of this, which is why they are preparing for this event now. In previous years, EA Sports had exciting offers on this day – and every year it could be observed: Prices clearly drop.
However, not directly on Black Friday, but already in the days before. So now! The past has shown that the lowest price point is reached on the Thursday before Black Friday. From then on, they gradually rise again. This development can also be observed with special cards, such as the IF cards.
In short: Thursday, November 24th, should be a good day to look for bargains on the transfer market. For several days now, it has been noticeable that players are becoming cheaper. This prediction, however, does not come with a guarantee; the market is currently developing like in previous years.
By the way: In FIFA 16, there was something new every hour on Black Friday all day. There were gifts, blitz rounds, increased chances, and a new tournament.
Whether the Warcraft movie will ever get a sequel is still uncertain, but if director Duncan Jones is to make it, he has clear conditions: “Less budget, more freedom”
“Under the right conditions, I would love to make a sequel,” said Warcraft movie director Duncan Jones recently in a Twitter message. When a fan asked further what he meant, Jones casually replied: “Less budget, fewer cooks in the kitchen.” What the filmmaker means is not catering, but more artistic freedom and fewer restrictions.
Blizzard had “reservations” about the Warcraft movie
Jones’ problem with Warcraft: The Beginning was that Blizzard intervened multiple times in the film’s development, severely hindering and ultimately ruining Jones’ plans. The director and his writer Robert Rodat already had an idea for the story and sent it to the studio Legendary. They liked it and gave their approval. However, Blizzard also had to be consulted. Although they accepted it, they did so only “with reservations”.
That was good enough for the two filmmakers, so they got to work and after nine months, the script was ready. But then Blizzard came along and said “No!” It was only then that the two realized that Blizzard with its “reservations” actually meant “We don’t like it!” Since Blizzard had veto power, Jones and Rodat ultimately had to write a new script.
Hurry up!
The new script took too long for Blizzard, and they pressured the writers and the director, which certainly did not contribute to the quality of the work. In the end, both the director and the writer were dissatisfied and accused Blizzard of mismanagement. After all, according to Jones, the gaming company could have just said right away that the first script was basically rejected. “Were they afraid to tell us directly?”
Therefore, Jones wants to avoid such hassle in the future and do his own thing in the next film. Whether there will even be a sequel to the rather moderately successful Warcraft movie is still uncertain.
Jürgen says: I found the Warcraft movie quite okay, but I noticed a few gaps and ambiguities in the script. It’s quite possible that these are the consequences of the problems with Blizzard mentioned by Jones. If Blizzard really let the writers toil aimlessly for nine months, only to end up saying “We never actually liked it and want a new script!”, then that’s really something!
Blizzard is looking for developers for an unannounced project. Interesting: They should have knowledge of the first-person perspective.
Blizzard’s career page is bustling: They are practically looking for everything. An IT specialist and an Oracle administrator; a game tester and community manager, someone for the HR department and a Portuguese translator.
One section is particularly interesting: The “unannounced Games/Projects” section, which includes positions Blizzard is already hiring for but has not officially introduced yet.
Now, two job postings for two “Lead Software Engineers” have appeared. One is supposed to take care of the engine, the other to program tools. These are the two people needed: If there is already an idea and a concept for a game and one is slowly starting to prepare for the actual development.
In addition to the usual requirements (a lot of experience and knowledge about everything possible) Blizzard considers it a plus if the two have experience with first-person games or other action-oriented games.
We don’t know much more right now – maybe really a first-person shooter or something in the direction of first-person action spectacle. Could Warcraft, Starcraft, Diablo, or the new Overwatch gain new facets with such a game? Or is there even a new franchise? What do you think?
Blizzard’s attempt to create something new and significant in the MMORPG genre has failed:
The annual Pilgrim’s Bounty of World of Warcraft is back. In 2016, there are again many rewards.
Since yesterday (November 21st), the holiday event “Pilgrim’s Bounty” has started in World of Warcraft. Until November 28th – exactly one week long – players can earn various rewards. Pet and toy collectors should be particularly attentive, but fans of cool outfits can also show up at the festival.
Overall, it seems that there are no new features in 2016. Those who have already completed all achievements and rewards from previous years can safely ignore the festival. Only the 10% buff on reputation gained might be worth it.
You will receive this buff at the numerous tables with food that can be found in front of every major city. Just sit at a table and eat through the food until you have all the different food buffs. If other players are around, you can pass the food around, so you don’t have to check every chair individually at the table.
Turkey can, Wild Turkey and “On the wall on the lookout” – WoW celebrates Thanksgiving
As a conclusion for the meta achievement “On the wall, on the lookout”, which requires completing all other achievements of the event, the “Fat Turkey”, a flying battle pet, is rewarded. Together with the bush chicken, which can be found in the “Pilgrim’s Bounty” reward bags, that makes a total of 2 pets that can only be obtained during this week.
Those still working on the achievements for collecting toys should complete the daily quests each day, which involves a lot of cooking and traveling around. The Pilgrim’s Bounty bags that are given as rewards can contain numerous gimmicks, such as:
Startled Bush Chicken (battle pet)
Refined Pilgrim’s Hat (black transmog hat)
Silvered Turkey Can (toy)
Apart from that, the bags can contain a lot of “junk”, like weak buff food or one-time variations of the turkey cans.

Nexon has presented an unusual MMORPG with Project Meta.
News from G-Star, the big fair in South Korea. There, industry giant Nexon introduced a new MMO with “Project Meta”. In Korea, many games are initially called “Project” until they eventually receive other titles. The creators of Tera and Bluehole are also currently working on a Project W.

While the trailer for Project Meta looks typically Asia-MMO, it is cryptic what information is circulating about the title. It is supposed to be a “sidescrolling action MMORPG” that visually orients itself towards Street Fighter 5, says 2p. It is being developed with Unreal Engine 4.
Wow, you probably have to play it to be able to imagine it. Or a publisher is once again being particularly flexible with the term “MMORPG”.
Take a look at Project W in the meantime – it really looks interesting.

Due to a WP adjustment in Pokémon GO, the combat points of some Pokémon have been increased, while others have been reduced. Which Pokémon are affected?
An adjustment in Pokémon GO is currently thetalking point on social networks like Facebook and Reddit. Surprisingly, the developers of Pokémon GO changed important values of the Pokémon. The change in these combat points is intended to make the game more balanced. This is one of the first significant balance changes since the release of Pokémon.
WP Change in Pokémon GO
Yesterday, on November 21, the official Pokémon GO website announced that the developers have adjusted the combat points (WP) of various Pokémon. Some Pokémon had their WP reduced while others were increased. These changes are intended to make the game more balanced and to make battles less unfair and one-sided.
The WP of different Pokémon has been changed. An increase occurred for the following Pokémon:
With these changes, the developers want to bring more variety into battles. The gyms are supposed to become more competitive due to the WP increase and WP reduction of the various Pokémon, not just filled with the standard Pokémon seen in gyms for weeks. Moreover, the statement mentions that further WP changes are possible in the future.
With this adjustment, the developers surprised some trainers. On Reddit, many players suspected their accounts had been hacked because they did not remember their Pokémon “like this.” While many trainers complained that their Pokémon are now weaker than before, players who took advantage of the Halloween event are happy. Because there, there was an increased chance to catch Pokémon like Gengar, which has now been buffed.

On Black Friday, Blizzard is lowering the price. PC gamers should take advantage of Overwatch now.
Last weekend, the developers at Blizzard held a trial weekend for Overwatch, allowing players on PC, PS4, and Xbox One to experience the game for free. For those still uncertain whether the game is worth the money, the decision is now made a bit easier.
In celebration of “Black Friday,” the Origins version of Overwatch is reduced from €60 to €35 in the Battle.net shop. This price is currently even lower than the standard version of the game (which doesn’t really make sense – but who wants to complain?). At the retailer Amazon, the Origins Edition still costs around €50.
The Origins version includes several exclusive skins that thematically match the backstory of the characters – such as for Tracer and Reaper, unlike the standard version.
If you want to know more about Blizzard’s hero shooter before purchasing, you can find information on our Overwatch game page.

Camille performs a slicing attack with her next normal attack that grants a bonus to physical damage and gives her increased movement speed for a moment. For a brief moment after Camille uses her Q, she can cast Precision Protocol again for an additional slicing attack. If she waits a little longer, her Q can deal additional bonus damage and part of it gets converted into true damage.

Camille is an agile fighter who must be played with precision. She is the perfect duelist and works best when she targets a single objective and forces it into a fight for survival. Each of her abilities must be executed carefully and at the right time.

The “First Strike” graphic novel for Overwatch will not be published. The lead story writer explains why the project is being shelved.
If Overwatch is missing something, it is a coherent story and further information about the universe and its heroes. Sure, there are a handful of cinematics and some comics that at least roughly summarize the overarching plot. But that is not enough for most fans.
Therefore, Blizzard’s announcement that they will not publish the pending graphic novel “First Strike” for Overwatch is particularly disappointing for those who thirst for more story. The entire project has been canceled without replacement, despite being quite far along.
The lead writer Michael Chu explained the decision in the official forum:
“We are grateful to the team for the fantastic work they put into the project; however, we have decided to lead the story in a different direction.”
The original idea for the graphic novel comes from the early days of game development and stemmed from the desire to tell the story of the founding of Overwatch and the beginning of the Omnic crisis. In the years since the concept of “First Strike,” we have further developed the universe and the story. While the core story remains, we have changed a lot and rewritten some events that took place during the first days of Overwatch.”
Cortyn thinks: Wow, that would really annoy me as an artist or writer of such a graphic novel… hardly anything is worse than unpublished work. One can only hope that more of the stories will actually be published in the future, as the pace has rather slowed down in recent months.

Last weekend, players on PS4 and PC were able to try out the base game of The Elder Scrolls Online for free. Xbox One players were told: Don’t worry, we haven’t forgotten you. We will let you know when it’s your turn. Normally, one thinks: Alright, until 2018 or so, but no, it only took a few days for Zenimax to fulfill the promise.
