Who is ahead in damage? The current numbers from the Nightmare create a clear ranking in World of Warcraft.
While a large portion of players is slowly but surely battling through the heroic mode of the Emerald Nightmare, most are asking: Is my damage sufficient? Which class is currently the best?
The Damage Dealers in the DPS Ranking
Click to enlarge.
Numerous players upload their data to Warcraftlogs, which allows for fairly accurate statistics and statements about the current state of damage numbers. For yesterday, the ranking of damage dealers in the heroic Nightmare was as follows:
Shadow Priest, Fire Mage, and Marksmanship Hunter share the top spots, followed by Retribution Paladin and Arms Warrior.
At the bottom are the Survival Hunter (the new melee variant of the Hunter) and the Frost Mage, who has always had the reputation of being more suited for PvP. Nevertheless, these two specs are quite far “off the mark”.
In general, such statistics should always be taken with a grain of caution, as they do not represent “raw numbers”, but rather the average across different boss fights. In the next raid instance, with entirely different mechanics and a different number of targets, things may look different. Nonetheless, the values indicate that some classes could possibly use a little damage boost – such as the Frost Mage and Survival Hunter.
Are these figures a reason for you to “reroll”? Or do you see it more casually and just wait for the next patch, where everything will change again anyway?
Star Trek Online received an exciting time travel adventure with the expansion Agents of Yesterday, which brought our heroes back to the good old days of Kirk and Co. However, this is just the beginning, as an update is coming soon that will provide us with even more content in the 23rd century. Additionally, the long-awaited graphics update for PC is also on the way.
Agents of Yesterday was a particularly original expansion for Star Trek Online, as it bridged the classic Star Trek and the future of the series. Our characters had to travel back in time to the 23rd century to avert impending doom.
Finally more light!
This exciting story will continue soon, as a major update for the expansion will be released on October 25th. In it, we expect the already known new species of the Lukari asking for our help. Additionally, we will find the space station K-13 trapped in a time anomaly and can even incorporate it into our fleets.
In addition to new quests and story content, the update also brings another innovation. The long-awaited graphics update, which has already been in the excellent console version of STO, is finally coming for PC! With the fantastic lighting effects, the rather old Star Trek Online will shine in a new light on the PC.

Now it is official: There are homosexual couples in World of Warcraft.
However, while violence is a daily occurrence in most games from America, sexuality is mostly absent – at least when it goes beyond a plate bikini.
Love beyond death
With World of Warcraft: Legion, Blizzard is now making a clearer statement about sexual diversity in the MMORPG – because there is homosexuality among Night Elves, and this has been the case for more than 10,000 years. Evidence for this can be found in a quest line that is exclusively available to players with the Enchanting profession. Relatively late in the quest line, you are sent to Azsuna (“Cursed, but useful”) to learn from the spirits of the Night Elves.
There you meet Enchantress Ilanya, who immediately sends you off to find one of her students. This “fallen priestess” is also already a spirit – and a Satyr to boot. 10,000 years ago, the fallen priestess joined the Legion and was then killed by the mortal races. As a spirit, she regrets her actions and wants to be redeemed again. So you kill demons, collect some enchanting materials, and return to the fallen priestess.
I did not trust the “fallen priestess” any further than I could dispel her.
Contrary to all expectations, the Satyr does not lead us astray, but is truly interested in her own redemption. She says:
“There is a place where Enchantress Ilanya and I spent many happy hours together. The love that permeates such a place is stronger than demonic magic.”
And indeed, the redemption succeeds, and the “fallen priestess” takes on the form of Priestess Driana again as a spirit. From her, it is said:
“After the betrayal, I never thought I would face the love of my life again.”
After that, you are sent back to Ilanya, who confirms the whole thing again:
“You have earned the marks of my most loyal friends. Besides, you have brought back my love.”
After that, there are two enchantments, including the “Mark of the Fallen Priestess” – anyone who has this on their weapon as a healer will probably always think of the story of the two Night Elf ladies. Ha.
Cortyn says: For most players, this will just be a side quest that is hardly noticed in order to get the new enchantments. As far as I know, this is the first quest in which there is an obviously homosexual couple in World of Warcraft – feel free to correct me if I’m wrong. Therefore, this is also a sign of a pluralistic society – even if it is just a small one. But small steps are still better than none.
In Destiny, we list all the legendary weapons and armor pieces available in Wrath of the Machine, the new raid from “Rise of Iron.”
With “Wrath of the Machine,” the fourth raid entered the Destiny universe. Although it was completed by Guardians just a few hours after the launch, this PvE group activity has much more to offer in the future: Over the next few weeks, information about the hard mode and raid challenges will follow.
There are many reasons to venture into the “Wrath of the Machine”: On one hand, it is considered quite enjoyable and short. On the other hand, you can maximize your Light level. An important reason is also: Here you can find raid-exclusive items that Guardians want to possess. Not only is it the source for Outbreak Prime, but also for several legendary weapons and armor sets.
These are the three raid armor sets
The Titans, Warlocks, and Hunters each receive their own raid armor set, consisting of a helmet, gloves, chest piece, boots, and class item:
Titan: Cosmosclast
Hunter: Nanomania
Warlock: Miasma
These sets are also available in the Splicer version. This one is elegantly black. However, the Spliced items are likely reserved for the heroic raid.
These are the legendary raid weapons
There is one example from each weapon class here:
GENESIS CHAIN~ (GENESIS CHAIN~)
An automatic rifle:
ETHER NOVA~ (ETHER NOVA~)
A fusion rifle:
FEVER AND REMEDY~ (FEVER AND REMEDY~)
A hand cannon:
IF MATERIA~ (IF MATERIA~)
A machine gun:
STEEL MEDULLA~ (STEEL MEDULLA~)
An pulse rifle:
SOUND AND FURY~ (SOUND AND FURY~)
A rocket launcher:
CHAOS DOGMA~ (CHAOS DOGMA~)
A scout rifle:
QUANTIPLASM~ (QUANTIPLASM~)
A shotgun:
ZEAL VECTOR~ (ZEAL VECTOR~)
A pistol:
EX MACHINA~ (EX MACHINA~)
A sniper rifle:
Some of these weapons have a flavor text referring to the Gunsmith’s weapons. For example, the sniper refers to the Eirene.
In addition to various materials, there are also class-specific artifacts, two ghost shells, and a ship in the database:
What do you think of these items?

In a crossover, players explore issues from Dragon’s Dogma Online that don’t quite fit into the world.
In recent years, so-called “crossovers” have become increasingly popular in many games. To promote each other a little, developers simply import particularly prominent features from another game – of course, with the blessing of the respective developer. Fans are excited to showcase cool gear or gimmicks, and if the developers’ plan works, new players become interested in the other game.
Dragon’s Dogma Online is now jumping on this bandwagon and is hosting a corresponding event in October. Various characters and costumes from the anime-style RPG “Persona 5” (by Atlus, who also developed Catherine ) appear in the medieval world of DDO. There are a number of quests to solve, all with a mysterious background – these are also clear references to the typical mystery setting of Persona.

Playstation VR, Sony’s competitor to the Oculus Rift, will be released on October 13th and various games will also be available at launch. Eight of them are even included on a demo disc in the package. Here is the list of games.
What good is a fancy new VR headset if there are no games for it? Sony thought about that too, which is why a whole bunch of games that support the new technology will launch with the Playstation VR on October 13th.
Eight Titles to Try Out
The following eight titles will also come with a demo disc at the launch of the headset. The full versions are either already available at launch or will be coming soon.
EVE: Valkyrie – Intense Space Battles and Virtual Gender Transformation
The flagship VR game EVE: Valkyrie must not be missing on the Playstation VR, and therefore the space shooter in the EVE universe is of course on the demo disc. In EVE: Valkyrie, we pilot a space fighter in extremely intense space battles, optionally with virtual breasts, when we create a female avatar.
Driveclub VR – Just Like the Real Car!
For those who prefer good old cars rather than spaceships, you can jump behind a virtual steering wheel in Driveclub VR and race in extremely intense races. Just be careful not to fall off your chair in tight turns!
Battlezone – Full of Retro Charm
Battlezone proves that modern technology fits wonderfully with nostalgia. The game with virtual future tanks is based on the original from the 80s and impresses with a crazy look in neon colors.
Hustle Kings VR Pool for the Living Room
If you don’t always want to go to shabby and smoky bars to play pool and also don’t want to risk someone hitting you over the head with a beer bottle or a stick, you can also have realistic pool fun at home with this game.
Playstation VR Worlds – The Demo Package
This is a complete package of five small VR games. Included are the gangster shooter London Heist, the diving simulator Ocean Descent, the space treasure hunt Scavenger Odyssey, the racing game VR Luge, and the sci-fi sports game Danger Ball.
RIGS: Mechanized Combat League – The Mech Sports Shooting
This game offers us big mechs, crazy arenas, and plenty of shooting. It presents itself as a sports spectacle of the future. Sounds cool!
Until Dawn: Rush of Blood – Jump Scares Galore!
Few genres fit VR better than horror games. Therefore, the zombie slaughter Until Dawn must not be missing on the PSVR. But beware, if you are too easily frightened, you should think carefully about this game beforehand.
Super Stardust Ultra VR – The Classic
This space shooting game has existed for ages in various versions, and therefore an extra immense version on the Playstation VR cannot be missed.
Loading Human Chapter 1 – The VR Adventure
In this adventure game, we are searching for a mysterious energy source. The special feature of this game is that it will be released in episodes, allowing us to gradually dive deeper into the story.
Horror and the Virtual Sports Bar – More to Come
In addition to the eight demo titles, information will gradually be released about additional launch titles of the Playstation VR. One of them is called SportsBarVR and is exactly that. A virtual sports pub where you can hang out comfortably. Although a VR beer doesn’t really taste like anything, that can be compensated with a real brew prepared at the same time. More importantly, the VR bar provides a virtual meeting place for players and numerous bar games like darts, pool, air hockey, chess, and shuffleboard. Plus, we can have virtual fights! Ideal if you want to avoid real pubs but still enjoy the atmosphere at home.

A new area has been discovered in Destiny. Is it connected to a secret, similar to that of the Black Spindle?
“Rise of Iron” holds numerous secrets for the Guardians. The possibly most extensive and complex one has already been solved: The exotic raid pulse rifle Outbreak Perfected has been found by savvy players.
Now some Guardians are working on a new riddle: A user managed to glitch into the gigantic Ketch that all of you have already seen when playing the story missions of “The Dawn of Iron Lords”. This massive ship has little function so far – it contains a few enemies and the blueprint for the Khvostov 7G-0X. But it didn’t require such a huge Ketch for that.
The self-proclaimed Destiny glitcher CloudLXXXV GAMING now shows that this ship indeed contains more than was previously known. He entered a completely new area in this Ketch, which looks like part of an unknown story mission. The location is called: “Splicership Menkis-Syn”. In the following video, you can see how the Guardian reaches this place and what it looks like:

You can only access the Ketch by starting in the Corrupted Lands. In the mission “When the Walls Fall,” a few words are even said about it. Therefore, rumors are circulating: If this mission one day becomes the Daily Story Mission, the entire area in the Ketch will be accessible. Comparisons are being drawn to the Black Spindle, which is also tied to a Daily Story Mission.
So far, “When the Walls Fall” has not yet been featured as a Daily Mission. And it should also be noted that all the above hints are mere speculations. But we can be sure that if this mission one day becomes Daily, many Guardians will turn over every stone in it.
What do you think, what could “Splicership Menkis-Syn” be about?

Tyrande is the new priestess in Hearthstone. We will tell you how to get her.
A few days ago, it was discovered from the game data of Hearthstone that there will soon be a new playable character. The High Priestess of Elune, Tyrande Whisperwind, joins Anduin in the role of a priest and is now available in Blizzard’s card game.
However, Tyrande cannot be purchased in the shop as usual, but will be unlocked through a special promotional event. Basically, it involves opting to try out the “Prime” service from Twitch. For this, it is necessary to link your “Amazon Prime” account with your Twitch account.

If you already have “Amazon Prime”? Then you just need to connect with your Twitch account.
On the other hand, if you are not an “Amazon Prime” customer, you can try the service for free for one month, and also link your accounts and unlock Tyrande.
After that, you can view your profile on the Twitch page and will have a new listing on the left called “Free with Prime,” where Tyrande is also located. Here you can request a code and then enter it in the Battle.net launcher under “Redeem Code.” The next time you start Hearthstone, Tyrande will be unlocked!
A fresh card back is also included.
However, since Amazon Prime automatically converts to a “normal subscription” after the trial period, you should cancel the service within the trial month if you do not want to keep it.
Cortyn says: At least in the comments on the official site, the whole event is received rather negatively, and many fans would have preferred to “simply pay 10 euros.” In the end, Tyrande is also not really “free,” as you pay with your data. Anyone who links the accounts should not be surprised if, after hours of consuming Twitch channels, Amazon suddenly offers suitable products. If you have no problems with that, you can quickly gain a heroine in Hearthstone.

Even the Chinese now have to pay in advance for WoW – and surprisingly, this is working without significant losses. Quite the contrary.
When comparing the Asian market for online games with the Western market, some things stand out immediately. In the West, it is quite common to pay for games in advance and then “have peace of mind” or spend money through a subscription model. In Asia, it is often different. Free2Play titles have dominated the market, and Pay2Play and Buy2Play titles have struggled – at least until now.
More Revenue Despite Transition to Subscription Model
With the release of the “Legion” expansion, World of Warcraft has changed its payment model in China: Chinese players must now also subscribe. Previously, players could pay by the hour for exactly the amount of time they spent in Azeroth. As reported by Superdata, the transition did not lead to the feared (and predicted by angry players) drop in revenue in China, but achieved the opposite: In contrast to the $8 million in July, NetEase (the WoW publisher in China) generated $37 million in revenue in August.
A large part of this revenue surely comes from the direct sale of the expansion. Nevertheless, these revenues show that Legion is also a success in China – only League of Legends was able to earn more in August. This transition also proves that even the “difficult” Asian market can be convinced to spend money in advance for games and that not only Free2Play titles can be successful. Especially World of Warcraft and Overwatch have prompted many Chinese to spend money in advance for a game – which is “normal” for us, but rather an exception in China.
Chinese players had time prior to these changes to exchange their already purchased playtime for “subscription days”.
There was a rumor recently about Battleborn that the hero shooter from Gearbox would soon become free2play. This has now been denied by Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford.
Battleborn is still doing poorly and only a few players dare to log on to the servers of the colorful and wacky hero shooter with crude humor and crazy characters. Therefore, many players are already hoping that Battleborn will soon follow the path of Evolve and finally become Free2Play.
Battleborn is going Free2Play! No, just kidding!
This is why many fans were also excited when the website Kotaku released the headline “Battleborn is going Free2Play soon!” As early as this November, the unfortunate game is supposed to get a new chance as a free version.
But soon came the disappointment when Gearbox head Randy Pitchford spoke out on Twitter. “Battleborn will not be Free2Play” was his statement. Instead, there will be a demo at some point, allowing interested players to test the game. However, he definitely rules out a Free2Play version.
What do you think about this? Should Battleborn finally become free2play or is it all worthless anyway? And what do you think about the plans to offer a free demo version?

What’s inside the single player of Titanfall 2 can be seen in the scenes of the new cinematic trailer.
The trailer deals with the role of the Pilot, which plays an important part in battles. Action scenes make it clear that the Pilot’s movements need to be quick and agile. Long jumps and wall-running are standard on the battlefields. In the video, a voice-over explains the Pilot’s mission to the viewers.
“Pilots fight differently”
At the beginning of the trailer, action scenes on the battlefield show various maneuvers of a Pilot. As the narrator explains, Pilots are not only sharp-witted and resourceful but also relentless. Pilots have a different perspective on the world and fight differently than “normal”. Even when the odds look bad, the tide often turns in their favor. The connection between Pilot and Titan is the significant difference compared to other Grunts and machines on the battlefields.

As it turns out, the narrator in the video is the protagonist of the game. He starts as a simple rifleman and has a long way ahead of him before he becomes a Pilot. You can accompany him on this journey.
In this offline single-player campaign, you have a story that presumably holds a lot of action for you. In addition to the multiplayer, fans of the single player have a full-fledged mode where they can prove their skills. Titanfall 2 will be released on October 28 for PC, Xbox One, and PS4.

If you don’t have a good internet connection, you shouldn’t play ranked in Overwatch . That’s not just what we say, but Jeff Kaplan says it too.
The nice thing about the Overwatch forums is that the Game Director Jeff Kaplan regularly speaks on all topics. He even responded to a forum post that would have quickly sunk to the bottom due to quite a few “Downvotes” from other users.
Player SUPMRE pointed out that there is currently a bug in Overwatch that prevents players from rejoining a ranked match after a disconnect. If you manage to rejoin after about 30 seconds, you may still receive an account penalty.
Since the player lives in a rural area with poor internet, regular disconnects are a part of everyday life for him, which has led to him being banned for the rest of the season, even though he claims to have always returned to the game within the 60-second limit.
The internet not working? Then you should stay away from ranked.
Jeff Kaplan responded and confirmed that there is currently a bug, but they are aware of it. More extensive changes can be expected in about two weeks. But beyond that, Kaplan took a further stand:
“Until then, if you have a poor internet connection, I would recommend not playing the ranked mode. To be honest, if you have a poor internet connection, I would even advise against playing the ranked mode, even after the patch. Even brief interruptions due to disconnections and reconnections put your team at a massive disadvantage.”
Cortyn says: Even though you can expect such a statement from the Game Director to trigger players like “But I paid €50! I should and want to play Competitive!!!11one” I can only agree with this statement. Living in a region with poor internet is a burden for all other players and only leads to 11 other people rolling their eyes in frustration.

Paragon is getting an Asian addition. What is of course missing? Right: An unrealistically oversized, completely exaggerated and unwieldy giant sword that wants to electrify you.
Raiden meets Noctis
If there’s one thing you can credit Paragon developer Epic Games for, it’s that they keep to their own schedule. True to the hashtag #Every3Weeks, a new melee fighter will join the roster of heroes starting this coming Tuesday, October 4.
The good one is named “Kwang” and could easily be seen as a mix of Final Fantasy XV’s “Noctis” and Mortal Kombat’s “Raiden.” Or Smite’s Susanoo. Or Raijin. Or one of the almost countless other thunder gods from Japanese mythology.

Kwang and his sword will try to electrify you in combat and give you more than just a small shock. However, the melee fighter should not only be approached with caution at close range, as he is capable of throwing his sword in your direction, thus bringing the fight to you faster than you might like.
Upon landing in the ground, it deals damage in a certain radius and pulls in enemies. However, if it is still coming towards you, it might be that in the next second, not just the silver behemoth but also the whole guy stands before you, as he can teleport to his sharp companion with his ultimate ability to directly attack with a sword whirl afterwards.
The core must be destroyed – the goal of many Mobas
In addition to these tricks, he has the ability “Light of the Heavens” which provides both area damage and physical and energy armor, and via passive, Kwang and allies in the area also gain life steal. An almost all-rounder Asian, recommended by Epic Games for initiating team fights.
“Destroy the Core” Reloaded
There are still a few days until Kwang’s official release. To shorten the wait for him a bit, you can still participate in the event “Destroy the Core” until Monday, 3 PM, which was once a community task.
The goal is to reach 1.8 million destroyed cores, which translates to 360,000 completed games. This counts both regularly won and (given up by the generic team) matches. Players who contribute to the event can win up to 30,000 reputation.
Rampage is “not amused” about the current changes
If you don’t know what to do with the extra time over the extended weekend, a look into Paragon might be something for you. Or are you part of the predominantly upset player base that no longer understands the world after the last patch? If you missed that, you can read here again what happened.

In Destiny, we take a look at the Trials gear that was introduced with “Rise of Iron”.
On September 30, the Trials of Osiris returned for the first time after the launch of the “The Rise of Iron” expansion. However, it is only available on PS4 and Xbox One. Those still on the old consoles need to upgrade their gaming setup in the living room to participate in the weekly PvP event.
The “Year 3” Trials remain largely the same as they were known from Year 2: The contact person is still Brother Vance at the Vestian Outpost, who provides you with the trial ticket and bounties, the mode remains elimination, and the ultimate goal is still the Lighthouse on Mercury.
Some changes in the Trials did occur, which we summarize here. Important new features include all new weapons and armor pieces that Guardians can now hunt.

Paladins will soon be launching on consoles. PS4 and Xbox players can now sign up for the beta.
For the hero shooter Paladins, developed by the SMITE creators HiRez, a wild time is ahead. After a very successful launch on Steam, the next hurdle is now in sight. Just like the godly MOBA, Paladins is also set to migrate to consoles – making it available to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One owners. While the beta isn’t starting just yet, you can already sign up to get an early chance to play the shooter on consoles.
“Since day one of development for Paladins, we have been thinking about consoles. We have engaged some well-known console players to ensure the controls feel just right on consoles. Name any major multiplayer shooter on consoles that you like, Paladins stands alongside those. With the exception that Paladins will be free on consoles – just like on PC and Mac!”
The next event in Overwatch could be Halloween. The first game files indicate new skins and voicelines.
While the last test server for Overwatch was primarily focused on testing recent balance changes, dataminers have found some interesting new hints about future events in the game data.
There are plenty of voicelines suggesting that Overwatch will host a Halloween event.
Several characters have an exclamation in the style of “Trick or Treat” – or as we say, “Sweets or Sour”.
Moreover, dataminers have already found an image of Junkrat wearing a costume that suspiciously resembles “Dr. Frankenstein”. This image is likely to be used during a weekly brawl and is no proof of a skin – but is nonetheless a strong hint.
What else the Halloween event could offer is pure speculation. Various skins seem plausible, as a witch skin for Mercy and a Viking skin for Torbjörn seem almost confirmed – after all, in-game material of these costumes already exists, and the two can be admired in a photo.
For example, Genji has a line where he states that he is going as a “cyborg ninja” for Halloween – which suggests that he does not have a Halloween skin but is essentially always in costume.
In the end, there is nothing left to do but wait. The Summer Games came without much announcement and caught players almost completely off guard. This time, while there are some hints, whether Blizzard will deliver a Halloween event this year – we will know in a few weeks.
In The Division, the big vendor reset takes place today, on 1.10. New goods are on offer.
Currently, during the second week of the PTS phase in The Division, many PC agents can test and influence upcoming changes. Last Thursday, comprehensive changes based on user feedback were already implemented.
Important new features also include the vendors, which are set to be enhanced: with a diverse offer and higher quality items. When update 1.4 will be released is still unknown. But the rough schedule states: still within this month.
The offer of the specialized equipment vendor
In the tech wing of the operations base, the specialized equipment vendor is waiting. You need Phoenix Credits for his items.
AUG A3 Para XS (submachine gun): 632 PCs – Value 204 (Malicious, Destructive, Precise)
SOCOM Mk20 SSR (sniper rifle): 672 PCs – Value 204 (Capable, Connoisseur, Dominant)
There is a “Hunter’s Faith” mask and a “Predator’s Mark” body armor with 191. With a score of 204, you will get gloves and a backpack of high-end quality. The ranger jacket and the sand-colored jacket are still not sold out.
The specialized equipment vendor in the terminal

Evolve will start making money again and is now introducing a cash currency. We reveal what is changing.
It has been almost 2 months since Evolve launched into the “Open Beta” of “Stage 2”. Since Evolve has been available as a Free2Play title on PC, fans were a bit surprised because there was no way to leave real money in the game. That is changing now.
America tests the real money currency
At least in the American version of the game, you can now buy “Gold Keys” for real money to purchase some items in the game. This includes perks, characters, color variants, skins – basically everything you can also earn in the game (with “Silver Keys”).
In the official announcement, it says:
“We want to emphasize that there will be no pay-to-win bullshit in Evolve. In short: If you don’t have the time (or patience) to earn Silver Keys, but want more of the cool stuff, then the Gold Keys are for you.”
Regarding the future of Evolve, it is stated:
“We want to continue developing content for Evolve, and we want to bring “Stage 2” to consoles. But for that, we need to prove that the game can sustain itself. The “Gold Keys” program is our way of doing that. If you like the game, want to see more content, and want to see the game on consoles, then tell your friends about Stage 2. This game will live or die based on the content and the community – and we believe both are pretty great.”
TurtleRock wants to run the “Gold Keys” program as a test initially in America and then expand to other countries once they are sure there are no more errors with the Gold Keys.
Cortyn says: I must admit that Evolve has fallen a bit out of focus for me because so many other things are going on right now. However, the introduction of a real money currency is only logical, as the game must generate some revenue. It was already surprising that players had two months to accumulate “Silver Keys” without any payment option.
My concern is that everyone who wants something specific will already possess it, and the developers will see little money. But for now, we also have to wait for the second “real” launch. Because currently, the player numbers of Evolve are continuing to drop every day…

The “FUT 17” season starts with a novelty: The “Ones to Watch,” also known as the “Stars in Focus.” Since these special player cards have not existed in the FIFA series from EA Sports before, let’s take a look at what it’s all about.
What is special about the “Ones to Watch” cards?
These cards highlight the best transfers of the past summer. From September 30th, the stars will be in focus for a limited time in the sets. A specific end date is not provided. Until October 10th, these are dynamic cards:
Throughout the season, this OTW card can be upgraded – The player receives better attributes and a higher overall rating. The prerequisite is that this player receives a TOTW card at some point in the upcoming months. If you then have a “Ones to Watch” card in your club, it will automatically be adjusted to the TOTW card and remain constant at this level – until a new, better TOTW card for that player is released.
In other words: The better the player performs in real football, the better your card will be. There’s a performance boost that corresponds to the latest TOTW values.
The stars in focus are referred to as “Live Items,” as they receive an update as soon as the respective TOTW card appears – regardless of whether they are currently in a club or on the transfer market.
What happens if the real player transfers clubs?
First, nothing. The attributes and the club remain the same. Only when this player receives a TOTW card in their new club will the entire OTW card be updated.
By the way: The position of the OTW card always remains the same.
Which players are the stars in focus?
These players have been carefully selected by EA Sports. Additionally, they are intended to be promising players who are also under 30 years old.
The OTW in FUT 17 are:
Paul Pogba
Gonzalo Higuain
Mats Hummels
