Rob Kazinsky believes that movies 2 and 3 of Warcraft can top the first part – if they are made.
The colleagues from PCGamesN had the opportunity to conduct a lengthy interview with Rob Kazinsky, who plays the Orc Orgrim Doomhammer in the movie “Warcraft: The Beginning.” During the conversation, they discussed how Kazinsky actually got the job – and what he thinks about the future of the Warcraft movies. We have summarized the most exciting statements from Kazinsky for you.
Kazinsky wanted to be in it – at any cost
What is particularly exciting is how Kazinsky actually got the job. He has always been a passionate WoW player and has spent nearly every minute of his free time in the MMORPG. During a filming break from “Pacific Rim,” he was about to do his daily Gring work to get fit for the next raid when he was approached by a colleague. “Don’t do that,” she said, and shortly after, “You know we are going to make this movie.”
Since then, Kazinsky has been fired up and has tried to get any role in the movie at every opportunity. He himself said: “I would have cleaned the floors, I would have held Duncan Jones’ hand while making the movie, I would have done anything to be in the movie. And then they gave me the role of Orgrim, and I thought, ‘Oh, you just gave me the best character in the lore, thank you very much.'”
It’s also interesting what he thinks about the film’s success and simultaneous failure.
“We wanted to make the best video game movie ever, but the bar is not very high. Do I think we achieved that? Yes. Does that mean the film itself is great? I don’t think so. I don’t believe we made the perfect film because we couldn’t.”
One part of the explanation for this is that the original lore had some contradictions itself, which is why not all aspects could be adopted. Some fans missed Mannoroth or Sargeras – but then the movie would have been overloaded.
Everyone is waiting for the “Frozen Throne” story
“We made a pretty solid movie. We have a wonderful starting point for the universe, and the next movies, two and three, can build on this world we created and expand it. (…) We will start in the second and third movie when we are allowed to do them, to tell even better stories until we reach the point everyone is waiting for: The Frozen Throne.”
By the way, Kazinsky sees the reason for the relative failure in America in the mentality. People expect that a video game movie will be bad, just because it is a video game movie.
Everyone is waiting for Arthas’ story.
“That will change, because people will eventually realize that games are no longer just ‘Sonic the Hedgehog.’ (…) They have evolved and are cinematic in their own way. If you look at Assassin’s Creed or Mass Effect – those are great stories and great movies.”
The entire interview in full length can be found as usual in our sources.
Cortyn says: Even though the Warcraft movie still divides the masses, and apart from “That was the worst movie in the world” and “The best I’ve ever seen” there are really no other opinions, it’s still interesting to read Rob Kazinsky’s lines. It also feels good that “one of us nerds” made it into the movie – because you can feel that at least a few people know what story they are telling.

In Destiny, faction vendors have introduced new weapons since “Rise of Iron”. Which ones are particularly worth investing Legendary Marks in? Which guns have strong perks?
Since “The Dawning of the Iron Lords”, Guardians are excited to fly to the Tower and visit the faction vendors there. For both the Vanguard and the Crucible, as well as the Future War Cult, the Dead Orbit, and the New Monarchy, there are new inventories with cool, faction-specific items.
In this article, we will look at a total of 12 weapons from these vendors that are particularly worth buying. They come with an excellent perk selection and represent a good alternative for your weapon slots. For each type of weapon – except pistols – we will present at least one recommendable gun.
You should note:
These weapons are always legendary and at light level 350.
Each one costs 150 Legendary Marks.
You must own the respective faction allegiance to purchase items from the Future War Cult, Dead Orbit, and New Monarchy.
Furthermore, the vendors will only hand over the weapons once they see your reputation rank is 3.
The weapons at the vendors always come with the same perks!
Keep in mind that we are not saying, “These are the best weapons!” Instead, we want to make some recommendations that can serve as guidance for you. It also depends on your individual playstyle which weapon is suitable for you. But let’s get started. On the following pages, you will find information about each weapon with interesting perks.

In hardly any online role-playing game, hero shooter or MOBA are they missing: We are talking about classes and character types that we can choose. Usually, there is the usual quartet of warrior, rogue, mage, and priest, but many games mix and expand on this repertoire. We want to know from you, which class you prefer to play!
Wand or club? Sword or dagger? Show me your weapon and I’ll tell you who you are! Since the days of Dungeons & Dragons, four core classes have dominated the role-playing world. Namely, the strong and heavily armored warrior, the agile rogue, the fragile yet powerful mage, and the healing cleric, who is responsible for patching up the whole party after the fight.
Warriors and Rogues
The warrior class is actually the least common denominator in an (online) role-playing game. I can hardly think of a game that does not have warriors. By definition, warriors are always tough brawlers who wear heavy armor and wield the largest weapons. Usually, there is the warrior as a defensive tank with shield and heavy armor or as an offensive bruiser.
I need a bit of action!
Warriors are never bad at dealing damage, but they always pale in comparison to rogues, who are pure damage dealers in almost all games and are particularly good at dispatching enemies. However, rarely in a fair fight, rogues tend to be trickier to play, as their attacks often require combos or specific situations. The best example is the legendary “Sneak Attack”, which must always be executed from behind and then deals a lot of damage.
Mages and Clerics
Mages are offensive heroes in many games who can unleash a hefty repertoire of damage spells. Just as often, you will find mages who hinder the opponent with control effects. Therefore, mages are almost always masters of the elements, with the most commonly used forces of nature being fire for damage and ice for control. In some games, mages also act as supporters who provide shields and buffs or even heal.
Healing mages usually only occur when there are no clerics in the game. This class is often overlooked since their duties in some game worlds are taken over by mages. However, when they are present, these holy men and women are usually always supporters responsible for healing, protection, and buffs. However, there is often a combat version of the cleric, like the nasty shadow priest from World of Warcraft.
The Mix Makes It
In addition to these four core archetypes, there are, of course, all sorts of hybrids and variations. There are strong melee fighters who play like a mix of warrior and rogue or spellcasting melee fighters. Blade & Soul offers exactly such classes with the Blade Master and the Soul Fighter. In addition, we must not forget the Ranger, who is usually a ranged fighter but also has some tricks up his sleeve in close combat.
Also very cool: The classes in Star Wars: The Old Republic allowed for a very cool mix of healer and damage dealer in the trooper/bounty hunter and smuggler/agent roles. And in many games, there is also a

In Destiny today, on September 30th, the arrival of Xur, the Agent of the Nine, is imminent. What offers does he bring this weekend?
In recent days, we haven’t had to complain about boredom in the Destiny universe. Ten days ago, the “Rise of Iron” expansion went live, exactly one week ago the new raid “Wrath of the Machine” opened its doors, and yesterday a hotfix was released, which resolved several issues, especially in the strikes. A highlight of recent times was undoubtedly the discovery of the exotic raid pulse rifle Riskrunner.
The excitement is unlikely to die down quickly: This evening marks the kickoff for the first Trials of Osiris after RoI, next week the Iron Banner event returns, where you can participate as Iron Lords for the first time, and upcoming weeks are scheduled to have further updates, the Heroic raid, and raid challenges. Guardians have a lot to look forward to.
Also, today is Xur day. The old noodle guy comes to the Guardians and shows them his new inventory. Let’s welcome him.
Everything about Xur in Destiny on September 30th, October 1st, and 2nd on PS4 and Xbox One
When does Xur arrive? When does Xur leave?
Xur appears every Friday at 11 am. He hangs around until Sunday at 11 am. Then he packs up his exotic goods and disappears until he reappears next week.
Where is Xur? What is his location this weekend?
Xur has specific locations in the Tower and the Reef where he spends the weekend. It is still unknown whether he will have a location on Felwinter Peak as well. He is located in the Tower hangar in the bar. ProNDC will guide you there.

Overwatch gave free loot boxes to many players. What does Blizzard say about this bug?
In the past few days, there were some puzzled faces in Overwatch when players logged into their accounts. Huh? Where did these 11 loot boxes come from? They weren’t earned or purchased!
Loot boxes are compensation for server issues
The reason for the 11 loot boxes is rather banal: Blizzard wanted to compensate players in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau. These players suffered significantly from the DDoS attacks from September 9 to September 23 and could hardly enjoy reasonable gameplay during that time. To help players cope with the downtime, 11 loot boxes were given to all players who played on the affected servers during this time.
However, due to a bug in the system, some other players also received these free loot boxes. Players from Australia, in particular, have reported that they were credited loot boxes, but players from other countries are also affected.
Did you get lucky too?
By the way, Blizzard does not intend to “take away” anything from anyone or even suspend accounts. Those who have wrongfully acquired the 11 loot boxes are welcome to enjoy and keep the contents. This was stated in response to a concerned player’s question to Blizzard:
“You can definitely open the loot boxes and enjoy what you get. It’s a mistake on our part and we know it seems alarming, but they were sent for free and thus belong to you.”
Other regions do not seem to be receiving compensation, even though European and American servers were also affected by the DDoS attacks – however, the issues here were usually resolved within minutes.

It has been known for some time that Amazon Game Studios is working on games. With New World, a sandbox MMORPG has now been announced.
New World takes place in a fictional version of America in the 17th century. Fictional, as there are supernatural elements. What exactly these look like has not yet been revealed, but apparently storms are supposed to play a role that drastically affects the land and poses a danger to the players. There will also be supernatural beings and monsters. Apparently, you are conquistadors arriving in the new world to conquer it.
A large sandbox with many possibilities
New World is an MMORPG. You are in the game world with thousands of other players. It is supposed to be a sandbox game, which means you determine how you play and who you are. For example, you can engage as an adventurer and explore the wilderness together with others. There are monsters to fight, in order to conquer lands for yourself. It will then be possible to turn the wilderness into a civilization. Whether this also means that one can take up crafting professions to provide adventurers and warriors with the necessary equipment, such as weapons, is not currently known.
However, it is also said that you can venture out alone, which comes with significantly higher dangers. Survival is an important aspect, and especially in wind and weather surrounded by monsters, being alone is not quite as advantageous. PvP also plays a role, as players can choose to become bandits who attack others. So you decide whether you want to act together with others, with whom, or if you prefer to become lawless and make many enemies.
The next big AAA MMORPG?
New World features an interesting Twitch integration. Live events are held regularly during which players can gain achievements and special rewards.Amazon Game Studios has not yet revealed when New World will be released. However, the game will utilize the Lumberyard game engine, which originated from the Cryengine. Currently, there is no footage, just an initial logo. With New World, we could finally be looking at another AAA MMORPG!

The raid guild Exorsus has already cleared the Emerald Nightmare on mythic difficulty in WoW after 17 hours.
After the first raid instance “Emerald Nightmare” was released last week only on normal and heroic difficulty, the last difficulty level followed on Wednesday: Mythic. Most fans were expecting an exciting race between the major raid guilds, but that didn’t happen.
Xavius’ Nightmare lasted just under 17 hours
The – more or less unknown – underdog from Russia, the guild “Exorsus”, has already killed Xavius on mythic. Other well-known guilds, such as Method or Serenity, were still stuck at 5/7 bosses and joyfully died repeatedly to Cenarius, who is generally regarded as one of the most difficult bosses of the raid.
In any case, congratulations to Exorsus; in the future, the guild will likely be kept in closer watch – especially when the race for the Nighthold begins.
The second “gigantic raid” will only open in a few months when the story of Suramar is concluded.
Cortyn thinks: While the guild celebrates its success, some players are going on the offensive and using the topic to reignite the usual “WoW is way too easy” discussion. After all, it’s been a while since the hardest final boss was defeated so soon after the release of the raid. This is surely also due to the new gear system, where players can properly equip themselves outside of raids. Moreover, this time it probably wasn’t necessary to nerf a boss first – that has often been the case in the past, as bosses were occasionally unbeatable due to being too powerful.
In general, it holds true: whoever thinks that WoW is “way too easy” should first complete the raid themselves on mythic. Most of us will likely still be running around in heroic mode for quite a while.

In Destiny, there is some information about the near future of the MMO shooter. We summarize the information.
In a detailed letter to the community, in “This Week at Bungie”, the community manager DeeJ addresses us and explains what the near future holds for us. There is still much to tell about “Rise of Iron”: The expansion offers more to play, more to earn, and several changes they still have in store. DeeJ is already revealing some aspects.
“Wrath of the Machine” on Heroic and Raid Challenges
In the coming weeks, there will be new things for the raid. When exactly the Heroic Mode will start is still unknown. “In the coming weeks” they will inform us. Additionally: The bosses will have some challenges in store for the future.
Trials of Osiris
Tonight, on September 30th, the Trials will begin for the first time since “The Rise of Iron”. It starts at 7 PM. The map is still unknown. Overall, this activity should remain as you know it. Visit Brother Vance in the Reef and let’s get started. You can grab new gear. We will report about it this evening.
Iron Banner Early October
On Tuesday, October 4th, the Iron Banner event returns at 7 PM. It is played in the Control mode.
Important new features:
Lord Saladin is now not in the Tower but in the Felwinter Peak.
The “Hardened” mechanic is no longer present. You will earn the same amount of reputation every day of the week.
There are now 4 weekly bounties.
Bounty rewards include:
An Iron Banner item that is not available from vendors
A chance for an Iron Banner artifact or a cosmetic item
25 Legendary Marks
750 Iron Banner reputation
A match win grants 250 reputation
Iron Medallions grant 150 reputation upon victory
We will also report on this monthly PvP event.
More Ghost Shells and Artifacts
Bungie has noticed that many Guardians are currently struggling to get their Light level above 365. The reason is the low drop rate of Ghosts and Artifacts. In the coming weeks, they want to test solutions here so you have multiple options to maximize these two slots.
Last night, Update 2.4.0.3 was released, bringing some fixes, especially in the Strikes.
Additionally, the letter to the community lists several known issues. For example, the Grimoire for Khvostov Manual, p. 90 is currently unavailable. Furthermore, heroic SIVA crisis strikes do not contribute to the milestone “Complete a Strike”. You can find all issues in the Bungie Forum.
What do you think of what’s in store for you in the future?
A major update for the sandbox MMORPG Albion Online has been released with Elaine.
This update introduces the Highlands biome. This new landscape features hills filled with lush meadows, rushing streams, and green forests. Residents of Albion Online have attempted to settle here, as the land offers many opportunities to establish farms. However, the mysterious Keepers have prevented every attempt at settlement so far. Therefore, remnants of these settlement attempts can be found throughout the landscape.
The Keepers are coming!
The Keepers are dedicated to the preservation of nature and are also the guardians of powerful artifacts. In addition to the Highlands and the Keepers, the update introduces 21 new “Hell Artifact” items. Additionally, the Swamp biome has been revamped and you will now encounter corresponding animals and creatures there. There are also a lot of bug fixes.
Additionally, a new video has been released showcasing all these changes in Albion Online.

In this week of the Overwatch-PotGs, Reinhardt is once again in the lead – and sometimes very high in the air.
Every week, many exciting or simply amusing gameplay scenes happen in Overwatch. We have scoured the vastness of social media to find the coolest clips for you. Enjoy!
Introducing: Reinhardt, the Air Defense
Our first “Play of the Game” showcases the starting moments of a match on the map “Temple of Anubis.” The Reinhardt player Knobisl2p quickly gathers his Ultimate, as the opponents conveniently stand in a line for his fire strike. It doesn’t take long for the player from Stuttgart to turn the whole enemy team into firewood.

The player CollossusOfCloud demonstrates on the map Kingsrow that with Reinhardt, you can not only effectively protect your team but also chase away flies. After a rather chaotic “Ultimate parade,” where Reinhardt flies far beyond his target due to the opposing Roadhog and his own charge, the player makes a bold statement: “I’m going to slam the Pharah against the wall.” A daring statement for Reinhardt, but see for yourself:

For the finale, we have a McCree kill feed of the “360° No Scope” variety for you. On the map Hanamura, the player Zevixxx defends the second control point as McCree from a greater distance. After some nice headshots and a well-placed “High Noon,” not much is left of the enemy team. But how does one elegantly conclude the kill feed? Right: By jumping off the platform, spinning in a circle, and catching the last player with a headshot while falling. Sounds too crazy? See for yourself:

Today, on September 29, the update 2.4.0.3 went live for PS4 and Xbox One in Destiny. This fixes the Strikes and brings more SIVA victims.
Guardians can now download update 2.4.0.3 on PS4 and Xbox One. You can continue playing only after you have downloaded and installed this. The download of the hotfix takes just a few moments in-game.
Patch Notes for Update 2.4.0.3 on PS4 and Xbox One
On time for the release of the update, Bungie released the patch notes. This update primarily addresses the issues in Strikes.
Strikes:
The revised Strike with the Hive monstrosity now drops rewards at the correct light level.
A problem was fixed that caused the “Echo Chamber” Strike to appear in the wrong playlist.
The Omnigul farming method no longer works: it drops rewards only once per strike. To make it drop rewards again, the strike must be completed.
In the past, Omnigul was often “exploited” with a trick to quickly obtain “Clutch of Malok” or to efficiently level up in light.
Archon’s Forge:
Quarantine patrol missions now guarantee a SIVA victim drop if you defeat the Splicer Priest in the second phase of the activity.
The chance for SIVA victims is higher within Archon’s Forge than before if you successfully complete them.
Items:
A problem was fixed where some players did not receive a Gjallarhorn after a successful quest. You can now obtain the rocket launcher from the weapon blueprint kiosk.
Vanguard Call Boosters now work in the SIVA Crisis Strike playlist. There was an issue here.
The “Contacting Server” issue is occurring frequently
Additionally, there are currently reports that servers are taking a long time to retrieve data. The bottom right of the screen often displays “Contacting Server.” Bungie has not yet commented on this.
Update: The problem seems to have largely been resolved by now.

Final Fantasy 14 is a subscription game, but it is currently overrun with spam bots that are shouting annoying “offers” at us. In response, Square Enix has now introduced new countermeasures. Furthermore, we can now stock up on stylish Chinese clothes.
“Special offer! Lots of Gil for very little real money!!!! BUY NOW!!!! @[email protected]” Players of Final Fantasy have had to endure such sayings in the chat for some time now when the spam bots are back. It’s pretty annoying, and until now, you could only block these spam jokers individually or awkwardly report them as a “bug report” via an online form on the game’s website. Both were not very helpful.
Therefore, the developers at Square Enix have implemented a feature with the latest patch 3.4 that allows us to report annoying spammers directly. The system then automatically checks if the person is a spammer, and if so, a virtual muzzle is placed on them, and they are effectively silenced. On the other hand, those who troll around and misbehave can be sent straight to the virtual jail by GMs via report.
Silk Dresses from the Middle Kingdom
In addition to the new anti-spam function, Final Fantasy 14 now also offers new clothes in the item shop. These garments are completely new and were originally intended exclusively for the Chinese. Therefore, they have a slight Far Eastern style. Meanwhile, Square Enix has also made the Chinese dresses available for the Western market. In addition to the clothes, there’s also a new emote and saddlebags for the Chocobo.

In Destiny, there is an effective way to obtain artifacts above 365 light level.
Since the launch of “Rise of Iron”, the new maximum light level is 385. In the future, when the hard mode of the raid is unlocked, the cap is expected to be 400. However, Guardians can already obtain items that are over 385; a prominent example is the Raid pulse rifle Outbreak Prime at 390.
How you can efficiently reach the maximum light level, we have already presented in the provided link. However, many Guardians are currently struggling to obtain high-quality artifacts. Therefore, we now provide tips on how to specifically obtain artifacts up to 385 light level.
350 is not hard, but 385 is very
Obtaining an artifact at light level 350 is not a complicated task. Tyra Karn has an “Iron Lord” artifact available for you each week, if you complete a quest for her. This item is at 350. But how do you get higher?
Up to light level 365, artifacts can drop from legendary engrams. However, it’s also a matter of luck. After that, there are not many options to obtain artifacts up to 385.
A possible way is the skeleton keys and the strike treasures: These chests can contain artifacts that go up to 385. However, it is quite labor-intensive and luck-based to even obtain the necessary skeleton keys, so this method is not suitable for farming.
Additionally, there are user reports that artifacts can also drop in the raid “Wrath of the Machine”. However, repeatedly playing this raid to obtain artifacts is also not particularly efficient and targeted.
The currently best farming method is called Eris Morn. Because with this vendor in the Tower, you receive a guaranteed artifact when you rank up! This can go up to light level 385, like all items from faction reward packages. So, make yourself popular with Eris to get the desired items. But how can you do this particularly quickly? After all, a rank-up requires 3000 experience!
This is how you climb in the reputation of Eris Morn

One option: Using runes in the Court of Oryx and mastering the battles. You gain reputation for this, but not too much.
Bounties from Eris Morn:
For some Guardians, there is still a good option: Go to the Strike Hall, turn right, and head to the kiosk where you can access abandoned quests. If you haven’t completed the quest line yet, “Darkness Looms” is waiting for you there. The individual steps grant you reputation with the good Eris. Before you complete the quest line with Omnigul, you can delete it and pick it up again from the kiosk. This way, you can quickly complete the missions again and gain reputation.
By the way, there is still one way if you have an abundance of items: Through item donations. Currently, Eris Morn is asking for Worm Spores from you. For 25 of them, you get 50 reputation. That’s not a lot, but you might be able to scrape together the last reputation points this way.

We reveal how you can get the hidden artifact weapon skins of the Monk in World of Warcraft.
In World of Warcraft: Legion, the artifact weapons not only have a variety of designs but also a few hidden skins – each specialization has its own. We reveal where you can find the special skins for the two Monk specializations.
Brewmaster – Legend of the Monkey King
For Brewmasters to obtain a new appearance variant of the weapon, they need to have a lot of luck (and be regularly drunk). The upgrade level of the order hall “Brewery” must be at least level 2. This allows you to click on a barrel once a day within the order hall, which holds special buffs for the day. With a low probability, you can get the “Legend of the Monkey King”.
Mistweaver – Breath of the Eternal Serpent
All Monks with a healing specialization must venture into the raid “Emerald Nightmare” and defeat the Nightmare Dragons. The dragons have a chance to drop the “Breath of the Eternal Serpent”, which immediately brings forth the new appearance variant for the artifact weapon.
Windwalker – Fists of the Storm
Windwalker Monks need to progress quite far in the quest line in and around Suramar so that they can complete the “Training of the Withered” every 3 days. In that small scenario, you need to reach at least 450 points and thus loot the great treasure chest as a final reward. The chest has a low chance to contain the “Fists of the Storm”. We have explained how to master the scenario best in our guide to the Withered Army.
The images of the artifact weapon skins shown are from wowhead (see source).
More tips and tricks and the hidden designs of the other classes can be found in our guide article on Legion.

Revelation Online will have a system of various equipment items, like most MMORPGs . The coolest items will always be those that we craft ourselves.
Revelation Online, the impressive MMORPG from China, features a complex item system. Items are categorized by their power into gray, green, blue, purple, and golden items. Gray items are useless, while blue items require completing special quests, and purple items can only be obtained in dungeons and from world bosses.
Go for Gold!
The best items are golden ones, specifically those that we can start crafting from level 37. According to the developers, there won’t be anything better than these gold items. To ensure that our ‘goldie’ doesn’t become useless later on, we can also upgrade it and even swap stats. A similar procedure has already been introduced by the Asian fighting MMO Blade & Soul, and World of Warcraft: Legion offers a similar system with artifact weapons.
Items in Revelation Online also have five main attributes and can have a selection of 33 secondary stats. The main attributes are interesting for specific hero types, while the secondary stats indicate whether an item increases our chance for critical hits or improves our resistance to certain types of damage. Through fine-tuning, we can also change these attributes afterwards.
More than 70 players have filed complaints against developers Niantic, Nintendo, and The Pokémon Company regarding Pokémon GO.
Since the release of Pokémon GO in July, 72 people have filed complaints with the FTC (Federal Trade Commission). The players are concerned about high prices of in-game items, server issues, and trespassing on private property. Of the 72 complaints, 56 are directed at Niantic, while the others are against Nintendo or The Pokémon Company. The information about these complaints comes from Polygon.com.
$450 invested, then the account was banned
Some of these complaints were filed during a time when Pokémon GO’s tracking system (Nearby) was significantly changed. The frequent server issues over a certain period have also led to complaints. One user stated that he spent about $450 in the game before Niantic banned the third-party apps. Afterward, his account was banned for using a third-party app. He said: “Without warning, Niantic took my account away. I tried to contact them via email and also filled out a form against my ban. I would like a refund or to have my account unbanned so I can continue playing.”
With the upcoming Update 12 of the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online, new weapon ultimates are being introduced.
With the new ultimates, the aim is to further expand the diversity of weapon skills and create a ton of new build possibilities. The weapons will then receive new “abilities”. For a bow, it will be possible to use “Rapid Fire”, which shoots multiple arrows in succession to deal damage over a longer period of time. Or one summons a ballista. With “Toxic Barrage”, you can also poison the enemies. Here, combos can also be created, for example from “Rapid Fire” followed by “Toxic Barrage”.
Specializations will become more important
You can only use the ultimates once you have fully developed the respective weapon skill. So you now have to think much more carefully about whether to develop your hero in a specific direction to make use of the ultimates or whether to keep him more versatile and develop multiple skills.
Zenimax Online has also released a new video about these new ultimates, which shows the effects. Update 12 will be released together with the DLC One Tamriel on October 5 for The Elder Scrolls Online.
In the MMO shooter Destiny, you can open the gates to Felwinter Peak.
The “The Rise of Iron” expansion for Destiny is full of secrets. Many have already been discovered and deciphered, such as possibly the largest and most complex puzzle in RoI: The path to the exotic raid pulse rifle, Outbreak Prime.
In addition to this big secret, there are many more small ones, like the Song of the Bells in the Iron Temple. This social space is full of mysteries, as is the following, which is related to the Isenfyre Token.
How to Obtain the Isenfyre Token
The Isenfyre Token is a consumable item that can be obtained in the new raid “Wrath of the Machine”. According to reports, the item has only been available since the second week after the release of RoI and drops when you defeat the final boss in the raid. It is suspected that this item may not be available every week – however, this will only be shown in the future.
The description of the Isenfyre Token reads: “Prove your honor in the Iron Temple.” And you can do this in an amusing way.
Rise into the Air and Open the Gates
Once you have the token in your inventory, fly directly to the Iron Temple. In front of the building, there is a large bonfire where you bring the item. There you can use the Isenfyre Token. It will then launch you into the air, and you will land on the tower by the bridge, where there is also an inactive SIVA bundle:

But the gates will not open yet. Now jump down on the other side of the tower, approach the gate, and open it for all present guardians. Now you and the other players wandering around Felwinter Peak can explore the rest of the mountain, which you already know from the first RoI story mission.
Notes:
Once you use the Isenfyre Token, it will disappear from your inventory. Therefore, use it wisely.
It is still unknown how often the item can be obtained. The future will tell.
According to reports, other guardians in the Iron Temple can also use the bonfire you activated to reach the tower. So don’t be surprised if you suddenly get visitors up there.

The “Honest Trailer” of Warcraft: The Beginning is merciless. The film receives rather harsh (but still amusing) criticism.
Whenever a big game or a major film is released, it doesn’t take long for the “Honest Trailer” crew to take care of it and thoroughly mock the respective work. In line with the DVD release of “Warcraft: The Beginning,” they have now also tackled this film and do not hold back.
Vibrant Orcs and Wooden Humans
The trailer praises the portrayal of the Orcs, who come across very well with their emotions and the detailed animation, but criticizes the human actors who fail at precisely these tasks. With 6 main characters and 5 different traitors within the plot, the film additionally feels like a season of “Game of Thrones,” only compressed into 2 hours, which simply does not do the whole thing justice.
The ending of the film is also criticized, as it is not a real ending – the conflicts remain unresolved. It is suggested, “Maybe they will include a proper ending in the first expansion!”
Near the end, the narrator even becomes so desperate that he seeks help from the “Game Theory” folks who at least have some knowledge of the lore and story. There is a little jab at the film’s release date at the end: “I can hardly wait for the League of Legends movie to come out – also 6 years late.”
But it’s best if you just watch the trailer yourself in full length:

What do you think of these “Honest Trailers”? Is everything a bit too exaggerated, or is there some truth in it?
Regardless, it is now more of an honor to get an Honest Trailer – because whether you come off well or poorly, most likely remember the whole thing simply as “funny”.

In The Division, there are numerous new updates regarding the preliminary Patch 1.4, which is currently being tested on the public test servers.
The State of the Game of this week just concluded. The developers announced the second week of the PTS, which will change the build on the servers with an extensive update. In other words, many of the numbers and information mentioned in the patch notes are already invalid. You can find the new patch notes here.
Additionally, your character data will now be wiped on the PTS. Once the servers are available again (today around 1:30 PM), you can run around the PTS with your character from the main game – as long as he is level 30. Otherwise, you can create an endgame character.
Thus, week two of the PTS is approaching. The following changes have been made based on tester feedback. A major change: A completely new gear set is coming!
This is the Banshee set
The new set is called Banshee and replaces the B.L.I.N.D. set. The latter could simply not be made interesting and balanced. Thus, it is now gone.
The Banshee set is a pure PvP set, which comes with an exciting, variable talent:
2-set bonus: +20% more Dark Zone currency will be gained
3-set bonus: +10% more damage to enemies out of cover
4-set bonus: There are two talent variants:
If you are rogue: Your ammunition is completely replenished every 30 seconds. Additionally, you receive 10% less damage from non-rogues.
If you are not rogue: Damage to rogues is increased by 10%. Additionally, movement speed is increased by 20% on the PTS, but this bonus will be removed and replaced by another.
All your B.L.I.N.D. items will be replaced by Banshee items.
Other new features coming in the PTS update
The damage of your grenades depends on the world tier. Previously, it was only designed for Tier 1. Now it increases as you advance to a higher tier.
NPC shotgunners will be nerfed. The shotgun types now have reduced range and precision. However, they remain deadly at close range.
Underground checkpoints will be removed again. A different solution is being sought.
There are no “health fields” anymore, only a health bar. This will provide a smoother display of your health status.
Armor resistance will be increased from 60% to 70%.
There will be further changes to the gear set bonuses. Actual numbers will be adjusted. The increased damage from the “Lonely Hero” set will now be calculated proportionally and not with a fixed damage buff – as it otherwise would not match the world tiers.
The SPS formula will be revised.
Now six new talents are available for weapon recalibration, not just three.
Hip fire is changing, it will feel different than before.
With individual skills, a “team cooldown” is being introduced. If a member of a squad uses one of these skills, the entire team will not be able to activate it for a while – but they can use another. For example, you can no longer quickly use the survival link one after the other.
In World Tier 1, you will not yet receive any gear set pieces. You can only obtain high-ends here. Gear sets starting from Tier 2.
In the Dark Zone, there is slightly less loot than before on the PTS. Additionally, traders now sell sealed containers.
Named weapons will be able to reach a maximum gear score of 229 in the future. However, this change is not coming now.
Numerous further changes to skills and talents.
