Currently, there are over 10,000 experience points available with just a single throw in Pokémon GO. We will explain how you can achieve this.
In the augmented reality game Pokémon GO, you earn experience points for various actions you perform in the game. Catching Pokémon and evolving them, for instance, repeatedly reward you with experience. This raises your trainer level, allowing you to find stronger Pokémon. During the current Thanksgiving event in Pokémon GO, you receive four times the normal amount of experience points. This means you can earn over 10,000 experience points as a reward for a catch.
The maximum experience points with a throw in Pokémon GO
The Thanksgiving event provides four times the experience points when combined with a lucky egg. This means you can earn experience rewards that have not been seen at this level before. If you have the right combination of curveball, new Pokémon, first catch of the day, and other bonuses at the same time, you’ll get an outrageous amount of experience points.
Reddit user 0relsewhat shows via screenshot the optimal combination. He received 12840 XP in one throw. Experience points were gained for:
In total, that’s 12840 experience points that he received for one throw. It requires some preparation to achieve such a large bonus in one go. Now, 0relsewhat can claim that he achieved the maximum experience points with a catch. As long as Niantic does not change the experience points or activate an event with more bonus experience, these are the maximum XP with a catch in Pokémon GO.
Are you taking advantage of the Thanksgiving event and leveling up your accounts diligently? What level are you at now?
Margoria is dedicated to the sailing aspect of Black Desert; there are sea monsters, a port city, everything nautical is further emphasized and highlighted.
Black Desert is likely a hit in Japan – Japanese are into the aesthetics
Although Black Desert is actually South Korean, it is reportedly very well received in Japan – the Japanese are fond of the game’s graphics. The local publisher “Pmang” has now announced Margoria with a series of TV commercials. We would like to show them to you.

The graphics in Black Desert could soon get even better:
In Destiny, a Guardian shows how to defeat Oryx solo as a Titan.
Crota was almost pitied in the past: He was defeated solo countless times, he was drummed to death and danced to death – the Guardians kept coming up with new, creative ways to defeat him.
Crota’s father Oryx withstood these attempts for much longer. It actually took months before the King of the Taken could be defeated solo for the first time in Hard mode. Now the YouTuber Esoterickk shows how to master him solo as a Titan. Solo runs against Oryx might even become mainstream. Check it out:

By the way, the YouTuber is not the first Titan to solo Oryx; another Titan managed to do it the night before – he used practically the same strategy, but did not record a video.
Nothing works without the Touch of Malice
There are two important prerequisites:
With a high light level, you can take more damage. The YouTuber is at the maximum of 400 during this attempt.
The Touch of Malice: With “Touch of Malice”, you can keep Oryx’s chest open longer.
If you follow the procedure in the video, with the Touch of Malice and the sword strategy, this should be possible for many Guardians. Perfect timing and outstanding skills are said to no longer be necessary. In the comments, one user states that probably very few will be crazy enough to try this. The performance in the video is simply impressive. Another questions if the YouTuber is even human.
By the way: In addition to the Touch of Malice, Esoterickk also uses the raid sniper rifle EX MACHINA and the Grauensreißer.
It’s quite possible that Oryx will now be defeated solo more frequently – and that he will meet the same fate as his son. Unfortunately, the light level of the rewards is no longer relevant.
The new Vapid Bravado Youga Classic is an absolute eye-catcher in GTA 5 Online. Whether in A-Team style or as a surf bus – this van has many uses.
At regular intervals, developer RockstarGames releases new vehicles in GTA 5 Online. There are fast super sports cars, cool bikes in Tron style, beat-up hot rods or the latest release: a van. The various tuning options make this ride a very special vehicle. The good
thing is: The vehicle costs only about 200,000 GTA$. You can see how to transform this “normal” van into a cool vehicle with character in the video.
Grand Theft Auto Five Bravado Youga Classic
The newest vehicle in the Bikers DLC of GTA 5 Online is the Vapid Bravado Youga Classic. You can buy this van from the late sixties at Southern San Andres Super Autos for only 195,000 GTA$. If you are not satisfied with the basic structure, then the next trip with the Youga Classic should lead to Los Santos Customs.
There are extras like side steps, dual exhausts, cool paint jobs, and a spare tire on the back door. With the paint jobs, you can determine what lifestyle the car should embody. A dark paint job for illegal businesses and drive-bys or rather bright and friendly to take the car to the beach.
In the video, you will see a selection of the tuning options for the Vapid Bravado Youga Classic.

After 12 years, not all founders of WoW are still with Blizzard. But who is still bravely holding the flag high?
With its 12 years, World of Warcraft is already a fossil among MMORPGs – although surprisingly lively. But in a dozen years, a lot changes. What has happened to all the well-known developers? We have compiled a list of the most famous developers who have worked for Blizzard since the beginning of the game – or very shortly after – and what has become of them over time.
Kaplan is now responsible for Overwatch. There is hardly any time left for other things.
Pardo, Kaplan, Metzen – What are the fathers of WoW doing today?
Jeffrey Kaplan, who may still be known to some veterans as Tigole, has not been involved in World of Warcraft since 2009. He is now the Game Director for Overwatch and is developing a completely new franchise, so there is little time left for further work on World of Warcraft. Together with Chris Metzen and Pat Nagle (Yes, he is named after the fisherman), he worked back then on world, quest, and raid design. A large part of the “original” game world was his responsibility.
Fun fact: Jeff Kaplan was hired by Blizzard because he was one of the most successful guild leaders in Everquest Online.
Rob Pardo has already not been at Blizzard since 2014 and has now founded his own development studio Bonfire. The expectations are high because when a former Blizzard employee leaves one of the most successful game studios to start anew, there must be some really good ideas behind it.
Chris Metzen – the storyteller behind Warcraft. (and for Cortyn something like a demigod)
Chris Metzen (actually Christopher Vincent Metzen) worked for a long time at Blizzard as a Game Designer and is generally considered the mind behind most of the stories we experience in World of Warcraft. A large part of the lore comes from his fingers and even outside the game world, he continued to weave the universe – for example, in the pen & paper rulebooks for Warcraft P&P or in the latest story compendium “Warcraft Chronicles”. Just recently, in the fall of 2016, he announced his retirement to spend more time with his family. Additionally, panic attacks and ongoing performance pressure made work unbearable for him.
Alex Afrasiabi – known from Stratholme.
Alex Afrasiabi, still known to some as Furor, comes from the era of Everquest Online just like Kaplan and has also loudly expressed his opinion in the forums like Kaplan. Blizzard was so impressed that they hired him to serve as a quest writer. Despite initial criticism, he is still the Creative Director of World of Warcraft and works diligently on every expansion.
Recently, Tom Chilton also “got caught” and left the WoW team to work on another project within Blizzard. What exactly it is remains unclear. Speculations vary widely: An Overwatch single-player? Diablo 4? Or something completely different? In a few years, BlizzCon will surely tell us more.
There he is chilling, Mr. Chilton.
Mark Kern, who was then the team leader of World of Warcraft, is now likely a bit of a thorn in Blizzard’s side. After leaving in 2006, he founded the (only moderately successful) “Red 5 Studio”, which was responsible for Firefall. In more recent history, he has primarily advocated for the fans of classic World of Warcraft who wish for a “Vanilla server” like Nostalrius to be able to play the game in its original form. He personally delivered a petition with thousands of signatures to Blizzard.
Of course, these are just a few of the minds behind World of Warcraft who are still involved today. All those people who you usually see on stage at BlizzCon. For such a game to really run smoothly, it naturally requires many more developers.
This was a look back at the beginnings of WoW. In this article, we deal with a “possible but unlikely future”:
Since update 1.5 of The Division, the named assault rifle Urban-MDR is in the game. What can this high-end weapon do?
The “Urban-MDR” assault rifle has gone through an interesting development in recent months. It first appeared at E3 2016, then still known as “B.L.I.N.D. System Battle Rifle”. Agents had high hopes that with update 1.3 weapons tailored to specific gear sets would be introduced. The more set pieces you wear, the stronger the weapon would be, they assumed. But that never happened.
Massive quickly confirmed that this weapon could not yet enter the game. Then there was a long silence around the B.L.I.N.D. weapon. With update 1.4, the B.L.I.N.D. set was completely removed and replaced by the Reaper set. The end of this weapon? No, with update 1.5 it finally arrived in the game – albeit with a different talent and a new name: Urban-MDR.
Locations of the Urban-MDR
The Urban-MDR is one of the 4 new named weapons introduced with patch 1.5. There are currently two confirmed sources to obtain this weapon:
Survival: Play the Survival mode. At the end, you will receive a certain number of sealed crates depending on your performance. The Urban-MDR may be contained in these.
Sealed containers through experience points: Once you reach the maximum level of 30, you will still continue to earn experience points. Once you have enough XP, there will be a loot container as a reward. So you can also get the weapon without owning the Survival DLC.
What Makes the Urban-MDR Special?
The Urban-MDR is classified as an assault rifle and is a semi-automatic weapon. You cannot hold the trigger down to fire multiple shots in succession. Therefore, the rate of fire of this weapon is also low, but the base damage is high. The standard magazine size is 20, which you should expand with a mod. Here are the stats:
The Urban-MDR comes with a unique talent:
Distracted: Damage is increased by 10% against enemies suffering from status effects.
You can identify enemies with a status effect by a small square with a symbol in it next to their health bar. For example, if an enemy has the “on fire” status, this is indicated by a flame in this square:
The Urban-MDR can be combined with talents, sets, or skills that focus on these status effects. If you have the Flame Turret active as a skill or you build on the FireCrest set, you can benefit from it.

According to Arekkz Gaming, it is a lot of fun to play with this weapon. Since the Urban-MDR fires single shots, it can be controlled easily, and recoil is not a problem. As you can fire precise shots with it, talents like Brutal are useful, which increase headshot damage. Headshots can be easily achieved with it.
Have you already acquired the weapon? What do you think of it?
In Pokémon GO there are Pokémon with different move sets. Is it possible to influence which moves the evolved forms of Pokémon receive?
All Pokémon come with two moves, which are divided into standard and special moves. Standard moves are weaker than special moves and are used in gym battles to fill the blue charge bars in the upper left of the screen.
When the charge bar is full, you can use the special move. A weaker special move can be used faster, as it consists of 4-5 small charge bars. Stronger special moves have 2-3 bars or even just one. This makes them a bit slower, but they deal more damage.
Can you influence which moves Pokémon receive when they evolve?
Since the moves have different advantages and disadvantages as well as strengths and weaknesses, it would be practical to be able to influence which moves the Pokémon gets after evolution. When a Pokémon evolves, it receives a completely new move set. Rumors often arise here and there about how to influence the moves during the Pokémon’s evolution. In a study, the “Silph Research Group” conducted over 10,000 evolutions to see whether the move set can be determined during the evolution process.
The study found that NONE of the following factors influence the moves when evolving:
Standard move before evolution
Special move before evolution
Level of the Pokémon
Nickname of the Pokémon during evolution
Lucky Egg activated during evolution
Overall rating of the Pokémon
Highest IV categories – combined
Pokémon has perfect IV in Attack, Defense, and Stamina – separately
Pokémon has no perfect IV
Pokémon has only perfect IV
To ultimately clear away every rumor: You CANNOT influence the moves that Pokémon receive when evolving.
Those who want the strongest moves have no choice but to catch and evolve Pokémon repeatedly until they get the desired moves. Which moves are currently the strongest in Pokémon Go, you can read in this article.
Unfortunately, you cannot influence the move set. But perhaps it is a small consolation that you can at least choose what you evolve your Eevee into.

The Moba Paragon is about to undergo the largest and most extensive changes to date.
Since June, developer Epic Games has been talking about minor and major issues that have clouded the gaming experience of Paragon. The excessively large battle arena has been the main problem.
Monolith brings multiple modifications
On December 6, it’s finally happening: The new map “Monolith” will be released to the players of the open beta Moba. However, many further changes will occur alongside this.
Not only will Monolith itself be significantly smaller and offer asymmetrical gameplay. With the upcoming update V.35, all heroes will also be updated and adjusted. The faster travel mode will be completely removed in favor of a significantly increased base speed.
According to Belica, Riktor is in her sights
Speaking of speeds – hero abilities can now be used much more frequently and faster, as all cooldowns have been significantly reduced. For this reason, the value “Cooldown Reduction” will completely disappear from your mods.
Because if, for example, as Gadget you can deploy a sticky mine every 8 seconds instead of 15 seconds, or Rampage’s ultimate is fully upgraded and available every 40 seconds – who needs less cooldown? Much more important will be effectively managing mana.
Paragon: More Action
Furthermore, the range of most abilities will be reduced while activation animations are accelerated. This is intended to make gameplay faster, riskier, and deadlier.
A “work-in-progress” excerpt from the new map Monolith
In addition, the shadow pads of the past will be eliminated. These will be completely removed and replaced at selected locations by a fog wall (see title image). Protective totems, like heroes, will also be unable to see through, making entering and leaving the jungle more exciting. Those who cannot properly ward here are almost marked for elimination.
But that’s still not all that Epic Games has in store for Paragon players. With the introduction of the new map, the distinction between physical and energy damage will be abandoned, which will also reflect in the mods.
Therefore, standard attacks will now deal base damage, while all abilities will now, who would have thought it, deal ability damage. The system for accumulating power will also change. Mods to strengthen abilities and standard attacks will no longer be separated but will form a unified value.
David against Goliath – Murdock aims at Crunch
This value will be distributed percentage-wise across all dealt damage. This means, for example, that Gideon’s basic attacks will only become slightly stronger, while his activatable powers will become much more powerful as he inherently deals more damage through his abilities. Conversely, power purchased as Murdock significantly strengthens his base damage.
Last but not least, there will be a departure from the traditional roles of shooters, mages, and fighters. Each hero will exhibit several “hero characteristics” that are intended to reflect the versatility of a character. This should help players find the right hero for their playstyle.
Paragon experiences a reboot
Pascal says:
“In a very real way, this is a completely new Paragon experience,” says lead hero designer Cameron Winston. And that’s exactly how it sounds. The changes presented represent a reset, a new beginning for Paragon. The goal was to create faster gameplay, more action-packed battles, and a high risk from the very beginning.
A final look at “Legacy” – the map will be shelved indefinitely
However, the oversized arena, which will be temporarily removed from the game with the release of Monolith, did not allow this to the extent that developer Epic Games had hoped. The extensive adjustment of the gameplay and systems will certainly not please some at first. However, a frequently voiced criticism has been the lengthy party duration, as well as movement that is too slow for some.
If you, therefore, took a look at Paragon during the open beta release in August for PC and PS4 and had your points of criticism, but generally find Mobas appealing and interesting, you might want to venture back into the realms of Agora on December 6. Because despite all the changes, Paragon does not want to be a shooter, but still “…to maintain the entire meta-game and the strategic aspects of a competitive Moba…”. Whether that works, everyone can decide for themselves in about 10 days.
The neutral Pandaren Doubleagent has completed his journey in WoW: Legion. He is now level 110.
It is a recurring phenomenon in our news when we talk about the Pandaren Doubleagent, who has reached a new milestone in his gaming career in World of Warcraft. But this time, the Pandaren Doubleagent has found his provisional end – he has ascended to the current max level 110.
The special thing about the whole action: Doubleagent refuses to accept that Pandaren must choose a faction and has instead decided to simply stay forever on the starting island. Instead of stopping after reaching level 12 due to a lack of quests, he has diligently continued to accumulate levels. Solely by gathering herbs and ores, which each time give only a fraction of a percentage point of experience.
After nearly 3 months of the new expansion, he has now managed to reach the max level 110 of Legion – significantly earlier than was actually calculated. To achieve this goal, he farmed herbs and ores for 6-8 hours a day.

Interestingly, as soon as he reaches level 110, he receives the quest to visit Khadgar, who then unlocks the world quests for him. But can you lure Doubleagent away from his turtle island with something like world quests? That seems rather doubtful.
By the way, even Blizzard has taken a liking to Doubleagent. Those who pay close attention in the monk’s order hall can occasionally see a Pandaren darting from ore to ore across the island – a clear reference to the Pandaren, who is now retiring early … at least until the next expansion raises the level cap.
Cortyn says: If only I could muster even a fraction of the motivation as Doubleagent when I have to farm my weekly potions for the raid – fantastic. In any case, a great achievement. Some find it silly, others love it. I belong to the second group.
With Camelot Unchained and Crowfall, two MMORPGs focused on PvP are currently in development. Yet both games differ from each other.
Both online games take different approaches, yet they are similar in other aspects. First, let’s look at the similarities: They are both focused on PvP, will take crafting seriously, and give players a lot of responsibility. Both games are crowdfunded. Industry veterans Marc Jacobs (DAOC) and J. Todd Coleman (Shadowbane) are behind the projects, looking to realize their vision of an MMORPG on their own.
However, it will be the differences that lead to a player who is excited about Camelot Unchained being less likely to enjoy Crowfall – and vice versa. But what exactly are the differences?
Persistent World versus Campaigns
Differences become apparent even during character creation. Camelot Unchained focuses on 30 different classes – with each of the three realms having “one variant” of 10 archetypes. There are, for instance, three archer classes in the game, each a slightly different variant of the archetype. In Crowfall, players – similar to “League of Legends” – play a kind of spirit that hovers over things and then slips into a “vessel.”
Other differences are even deeper. Camelot Unchained offers a vast, open game world where three factions fight for dominance. You will always act in this world, where the balance of power changes through your actions. Massive realm-versus-realm battles take center stage.
Crowfall, on the other hand, does not offer a truly persistent world. Each player has a so-called Eternal Kingdom that they can expand. Campaigns regularly occur in the surrounding worlds. You then travel to one of these worlds, take on a form, and engage in PvP battles for resources and rewards until the so-called Hunger destroys this world. Then it’s back to your Eternal Kingdom, which you further develop with achievements from the campaign. Afterwards, the next campaign awaits you. Each campaign is supposed to last between one and six months.

In Camelot Unchained, you create a character and develop it as known from other MMORPGs. Camelot Unchained offers a unique twist on skills: players are supposed to build their skills themselves using a kind of modular system.
In Crowfall, on the other hand, this works differently, as you can jump into different bodies – called vessels – and thereby take on the attributes of that body. You must carefully decide which body you want to jump into, as this can change the game for you. Skill development occurs similarly to EVE Online.
Another point of distinction between both MMOs is the combat system. Camelot Unchained uses a classic tab-targeting system, allowing you to aim at different body parts. In Crowfall, however, an action-packed and active combat system is used, reminiscent of TERA.
As you can see, both games differ significantly from each other despite their focus on PvP. Which approach do you prefer?

We will tell you how to get the hidden artifact weapon skins of the Paladin in World of Warcraft.
In World of Warcraft: Legion, the artifact weapons not only have a variety of different designs, but also a few hidden skins – each specialization has its own. We will tell you where to get the special skins for the three specializations of the Paladin.
Holy – Guardian’s Might
Paladins who have dedicated themselves to healing can theoretically easily obtain their alternative weapon skins. They simply need to have an artifact knowledge level of 5 and can then slay demons in Azsuna (especially good in Faronaar). The alternative skin can drop from any demon and strongly resembles Reinhardt’s hammer from Overwatch.
Protection – Defender’s Bulwark
Protection warriors do not require a special knowledge level, but have only a chance every 3 days to obtain the skin “Defender’s Bulwark”. This may be contained in the largest reward chest in the scenario with the Withered Army. This means that at least the Suramar quest line must be completed up to the unlocking of the scenario.
Retribution Paladins should brace themselves because anyone wanting the especially cool corrupted design of the Ashbringer must put in a lot of work. First, an artifact knowledge level of 5 is required to complete all steps. After that, you must go through many steps:
Collect the two “Nat Pagle” books. Nat Pagle’s Guide to Extreme Angling drops in the PvP area Alterac Valley when you loot dead opponents. A worn copy of “Nat Pagle’s Guide to Extreme Angling” can be found in the dungeon Duskwood. There you will find several “Dusty Codexes” that may contain the coveted book.
Defeat Nefarian in Blackwing Lair and loot his head. Keep the head in your inventory and do not turn in the quest, otherwise you will have to get the head again the following week.
Talk to Sister Elda in your Order Hall, she will exchange your books for a new variant.
Travel back to Duskwood (West Quarter) and talk to Prince Tortheldrin.
Alliance players will then speak with Alexia Ironwrist at the train station in the Western Plaguelands.
Horde players will talk to Bardu Sharpgaze at the Bulwark of Tirisfal.
The journey continues to Herdweiler at the coordinates 42/19 (Western Plaguelands). Read Grand Inquisitor Isillien’s Diary (it is in the same room as the NPC High Cleric Alphus).
Defeat Greater Muck in the Western Plaguelands (69/46, right by the river). The muck has a long respawn time, so this may take a while. Loot Timolain’s Phylactery from the muck.
Use the phylactery, talk to the lich Timolain, and click through all dialogue options.
Fish in the river (next to the muck) until you catch a Shard of Darkness. This may also take a while. Your fishing skill is irrelevant.
Return to your Order Hall and talk to Lord Maxwell Tyrosus, who will then give you a quest. If he is not there, you have just been sent on a mission.
Fly from the Dalaran flight master to Acherus (on the Broken Isles) and complete the quest. Done!
The images of the artifact weapons are from wowhead (see sources).

In the fantasy MMORPG Final Fantasy 14 there are dates for patch 3.5.
“The Far Edge of Fate”, patch 3.5, for Final Fantasy 14 will be so large that it will be split in two like Solomon. Part 1 arrives in January 2017, Part 2 will hit in March.
As is customary for patches in Final Fantasy XIV, there is the “normal patch package” consisting of two dungeons, an alliance raid, a trial, and new quests – also for crafters.
Bringing “unusual content”, 3.5 brings the ability to search for a group across worlds. Also, Square Enix is updating PvP – “The Feast” will get a new map.
Final Fantasy XIV: This Christmas, there will be information about Stormblood, the new expansion in 2017
Square Enix announced all of this in the 33rd Live Letter from the Producer.
The next major date for information about Final Fantasy XIV will likely be Christmas. The Fan Festival will be held in Tokyo then. In addition to information about 3.5, it will also cover Stormblood, the next major expansion.
ARK: Survival Evolved has rolled out a new major update with new dinos and Super Turkey. Here you can learn what else the update brings.
In time for Thanksgiving, ARK has released Patch: 252. Since everything in America revolves around turkey during the Harvest Festival, you will also find the “wild, bloodthirsty Super Turkey mutant” wandering around the landscape. If you take it down, you will receive special building materials to craft a hat. But be careful, the turkey appears harmless, but it is not!
You can check out the new dinos in the video:

Currently, a new glitch is causing a stir in Destiny . Keep an eye on the Sunsinger Warlocks!
Now for some unpleasant news: A new glitch has recently surfaced in Destiny. It affects the Warlock. Step-by-step guides are already available online – even as videos. You can no longer keep it contained.
This glitch has actually been known since the end of September, but it did not make much noise at that time. Now it is present on Reddit and YouTube. Some Guardians are already complaining about the end of PvP and the currently ongoing Trials. But is the glitch really that severe?
Right back in the action
This glitch allows the Sunsinger to revive themselves and directly rejoin the fight without having to go through the animation first. Normally, it is possible to take out a Sunsinger in that animation with a sniper shot, so they remain down. With the glitch, however, the Warlock is immediately back in combat and ready to fight – which provides a significant advantage for them.
We will not post a guide to the glitch here, just this much: It has to do with an “Iron Lord” artifact: The YouTuber Venero TV explains the glitch in German – without mentioning a guide:

This is not a “game-breaking” glitch. Moreover, the Warlock loses all buffs after revival. Additionally, many players call for the Sunsinger to receive a buff. Whether and how Bungie will respond remains unknown. Until then, remember: Pay extra attention to the Sunsingers so they don’t catch you off guard!
Sombra has hacked into Overwatch. Her abilities, strengths, weaknesses, and counters at a glance. This Sombra guide makes you a master hacker!
After what felt like an eternity waiting for Sombra, she has finally hacked her way into the game. She has been playable for a while now, allowing us to get to know her and her abilities better. It’s high time for a guide to make you a master hacker!
This Sombra guide contains tips and tricks for:
Sombra’s abilities
Tips for Sombra’s abilities in detail
Sombra’s counters
Sombra officially falls into the category of offensive heroes and resembles Tracer in terms of playstyle. It must be mentioned that she deals less direct damage than Tracer or other offensive heroes. Sombra carves out her own niche and works most effectively as a disruptor, simply hacking abilities or rendering first-aid packs useless.
With her camouflage and teleportation ability, she can even be used like an assassin. Sombra is versatile and therefore difficult to classify. This makes her an interesting heroine with many possibilities, provided you understand how to use her correctly.
Sombra’s Abilities
The following overview shows that Sombra can leave enemies defenseless and weaker with her hacking ability. Additionally, she is able to become invisible and destroy shields.
MACHINE PISTOL
Sombra’s fully automatic machine pistol has a slight spread. The pistol is similar to Tracer’s but deals less damage. The pistol is most effective at short distances.
HACK
Sombra hacks enemies, preventing them from using abilities for a short time. She can also hack first-aid packs to sabotage them: For enemies, the packs then become useless.
hacking is likely the definition of Sombra and gives you the ability to take away your opponents’ abilities and first-aid packs. Once you hack the packs, they recharge much faster. To make this ability particularly useful, you should have a good map knowledge and know where the packs are located.
THERMO-OPTICAL CAMOUFLAGE
Sombra becomes invisible for a short time. At the same time, she gains a significant speed boost during this period. If she attacks, uses offensive abilities, or takes damage, the camouflage is cancelled.
This ability gives you the chance to escape from dangers or to sneak onto the battlefield unnoticed. But position yourself wisely, as camouflage gives you the advantage to approach a hacked enemy unnoticed and eliminate them. This is where the assassin in Sombra shines through.
TELEPORTATION
Sombra sets up a teleportation receiver. She can immediately teleport back to the location of this receiver as long as it is active (even possible in mid-air). It’s particularly clever to place the receiver near first-aid packs.
EMP
Sombra releases an electromagnetic pulse in a large radius, destroying enemy barriers and shields. Additionally, all enemies within range are hacked. With EMP, you can even shut down entire ultimate combinations of the entire team with the push of a button.
OPPORTUNIST
With this passive, Sombra can see enemies through walls as long as they are below 50% health. Don’t rush into combat unprepared and be ready to hack first-aid packs before the enemy gets to them.
In this video from Blizzard, you can get a good impression of how Sombra can efficiently combine her abilities.

Yesterday, on November 25th, it was Black Friday. The day when bargain hunters and deal seekers venture into stores and eagerly scour the internet to grab as many bargains as possible for little money.
Black Friday was also celebrated in FUT 17. And I must say: I was looking forward to it. In the days before, I had been diligently hoarding coins, resisting all lucrative offers, and not wasting a single coin, so I could strike hard on Black Friday. But that did not happen – because I quickly lost interest.
During the last 24 hours, flash SBCs were active, hourly pack offers came, and you even received this jersey as a gift:
This sounds perfectly fine. However, this day caused frustration for many fans. Why is that?
“I have no offers! – Oh, already sold out
The majority of hourly packs came with a “global limit”. This means that all players have one hour to grab a certain number of packs. However, it did not even take an hour: In some cases, it took less than a minute for the sets to be completely sold out. Those who arrived too late went away empty-handed.
I tracked the offers yesterday for several hours to keep our “FUT 17 Black Friday” article up to date – and by 9 PM, every flash round with a global limit was indeed gone in no time. Fans complained to EA Sports on FB about where the offers were. They logged in immediately, but no sets were displayed to them. They wondered if it was a bug.
At 9 PM, EA Sports increased the quota and started a bonus round shortly before, which was desperately needed. However, by this time, many had already lost interest – after waiting in vain for “bargains” for 6 hours.
Much money for nothing
Those lucky enough to secure one of these packs were not satisfied either. Because they expected: “Now I’m spending so many coins or FIFA Points, something decent should be in the set!” Packs were often available for 125,000 coins or 2500 FIFA Points. Note: 2200 FIFA Points are worth about 20 Euros!
You can’t really call it a bargain. Even if you spend many coins, you still have no guarantee that there is a strong player in the set. Some fans even demanded their money back on the EA Sports FB page. Because “there was nothing in it!” Just players who definitely wouldn’t justify 125,000 coins. However, every FUT player must be aware that “pack opening” is based on luck. There is no guarantee. Whoever purchases a pack must be aware of the risk.
Basically, there were no “bargains” at Black Friday in FUT 17. There were only expensive set offers that are normally not available or available only rarely. The standard sets cost the same as before. One could have talked about “bargains” if they had been available at half price or otherwise discounted. Yes, there were sets on offer where you received more rare items for your money, but spending over 100,000 coins for that – I refuse to call that a “bargain”.
What I would have liked:
Real “bargains”, discounted sets.
And a significantly higher “Global Limit”, especially at the beginning of Black Friday – or none at all. If a flash round is over after just a few seconds, it is no fun.
Do you feel the same way? Or did you have the great “pack luck” in the last hours and ended Black Friday with a smile on your face?

A major update for Pokémon GO might be available as early as December. More than 100 new Pokémon, including legendary ones, are expected to soon be in the game.
The big update that Pokémon GO players have been waiting for is likely to be released in December. Over 100 new Pokémon (including legendary Pokémon) and player versus player battles are expected to be activated in-game during the Christmas season, according to Venturebeat. Among the legendary Pokémon, Mew and Mewtwo are expected to be included.
Pokémon GO: Will legendary Pokémon be available to catch soon with the update?
As Venturebeat reports, it was discovered during the analysis of game data that Niantic is planning a huge update for December. Players will receive many features they’ve been waiting for. With over 100 new Pokémon from Generation 2 and trainer versus trainer battles, community requests would be fulfilled.
Legendary Pokémon like Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres, as well as Mew and Mewtwo, have been a topic of discussion among players since the game’s release. It is unclear whether the update will be released as a large package or in smaller installments. PokeVS reviewed the game’s code and found that the update can be expected during the Christmas holidays.
He really came as a surprise: Ditto.
Allegedly also trading, player versus player battles, and Pokémon breeding in the update of Pokémon Go
PokeVS also claims to have discovered the possibility of trading in the code, and players should be able to “breed” their own Pokémon once they hatch from eggs.
If this update occurs during the Christmas season, the game is likely to experience another strong hype and thus survive the difficult cold period when trainers are less inclined to go outside. However, if legendary Pokémon are waiting, neither snow nor frost can deter a true trainer from their goal.
Nostalrius, shortly before the servers were shut down.
Said and done. In the meantime, the code has been handed over to Elysium, another Classic server, which has now integrated it and thus founded “Nostalrius 2.0”. Former players can even access their old characters again. The project is apparently progressing well, as they have just completed the second “stress test”. They plan to launch with 3 servers in December.
The whole thing is certainly not entirely legal, which is why they are now also operating the servers in countries where legal actions are more difficult, so that Blizzard cannot come in “friendly with the lawyers”. But will they let that go?
Nostalrius and the Blizzard employees – it looked peaceful.
Cortyn states: I still side with Blizzard in this matter and believe that as developers they have the sole right to decide what happens with the game and previous versions. This is certainly not a pleasant prospect for everyone wishing for classic WoW, but in my view, it is not within the decision-making power of former players and hobby developers.
It certainly is not helpful that Blizzard has been silent on this topic in recent months, further upsetting disappointed fans – however, this does not change the fact that it is their game. I can hardly imagine that Blizzard will just let this slide – though it has not set a good sign for possible “negotiations” on either side.
Within a few months, Pokémon GO was released in many parts of the world. In the GIF, you can closely observe the exciting progress.
The augmented reality game Pokémon GO is now available in many regions around the world. Initially, the game was only released in a few countries. There were strong server issues that delayed the launch in Germany and other countries. About a week after the United States, Australia, and New Zealand, the game was released in Germany as well. You can follow which countries followed after and in what order through an interesting graphic.
Pokémon GO – Step by Step Around the World
After the launch in July, Pokémon GO was already available in over 90 countries by September. And the number of participating countries is still growing. There are some areas in the world where you (still) do not have access to Pokémon GO. This may be due to certain security policies of the country. In the following GIF, you can see when the game was released and which countries are still missing.
The game is not yet available, for example, in:
China, South Korea, North Korea, Nepal, Bangladesh, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Sri Lanka, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Iran, or Ukraine.
In Iran, the game is banned for security reasons.
Pokémon GO has a geo-block in China, South Korea, and parts of India.
In The Division, Ubisoft looks forward to a positive future.
Ubisoft’s and Massive’s shared-world shooter The Division was THE game in the spring of this year. After beta records, overwhelming sales successes followed. It seemed that nothing could stop this long-awaited game.
In the end, the game did collapse – after just a few months. Expectations were too high, and there were too many bugs. Exploits, cheats, and hacks had a devastating effect on player morale. Massive bravely countered with numerous updates and hotfixes, but ultimately patched the game to “death”, as was frequently scornfully read in the community. The low point of this development was reached when Massive itself stated after update 1.3: “Sorry guys, our game isn’t fun!”
But players are coming back
From mid-June to October 25, nothing happened in-game. Massive used the time to engage extensively with the community and to work on update 1.4 – and it paid off. The major mistakes of the past were corrected, and the agents received the update mostly positively, with The Division now ready for the future.
And these efforts were successful: Ubisoft’s Anne Blondel now announced that since 1.4, the number of active players has returned to launch levels. The reason given is that people are so impressed with 1.4 and how persistently Massive has worked on and improved the game.
She admits that many players had turned to The Division earlier than expected. Therefore, a decision had to be made: “Do we continue as before and deliver new content, or do we pause for a while, fix everything, and continue with more content once the game runs as it should?”
The decision-makers chose the more elaborate option, making the community “super happy”. However, the disappointment of the agents was also felt, as they were displeased with the delays of the upcoming DLCs.
According to Blondel, not only are player numbers improving, but also the community’s attitude. They are beginning to view the game more positively again. She expects that in the future even more players will (re)find their way back to The Division.
Are you also back in action?
On December 20, Survival will be released on PS4. PC and “Xbox One” agents can already play it. Here you can find the spectacular trailer for Survival.
