Warcraft movie: Honest Trailer says “One season of Game of Thrones squeezed into 2 hours”

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

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

Warcraft Movie Durotan

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”.

The Division: New PvP Gear Set replaces B.L.I.N.D. – PTS servers will be wiped

Tom Rothstein Tom Rothstein Reading time 3 minutes

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.

division-dark

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.

division-dark-zone-agentin

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.
    division-m1a-firstwave
  • 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.

PvP for every taste

First up is the game mode “Arena,” where three players compete against each other and fight for victory. The best gladiators can even participate in the PvP season and grab special prizes and fame. However, for larger battles, there are “Battlegrounds” that allow large fights between teams of 10, 20, or even 30 players.

The fights become even more epic when two guilds battle for a fortress in the “Guild War,” as up to 50 guild members can compete against each other. However, those who prefer less organized fights can also engage in open-world PvP from level 40, challenging other players to duels or ambushing them as a devious bandit. Rogue players can even be looted after their death!

We have embedded a video of all these PvP modes here for you. If you are more interested in the PvE aspects of Revelation Online, be sure to check out our article on dungeons, raids, and world bosses.

Destiny Guide: Outbreak Prime – How to get the exotic pulse rifle “Outbreak Prime”

Tom Rothstein Tom Rothstein Reading time 7 minutes

In Destiny, we show you everything you need to know about the raid pulse rifle “Outbreak Prime”: the perks, the monitor puzzle, the quest “Corruption Channeling”, and what the SIVA engine is all about.

The biggest mystery of “Rise of Iron” is solved: Guardians were able to wrap their arms around the exotic pulse rifle “Outbreak Prime”. It was already seen in videos before the release of “The Taken King,” and most Guardians thought: I definitely want that thing!

And now there are step-by-step guides online detailing how to get the coveted raid weapon, which is tied to “Wrath of the Machine.” However, this is not a child’s play, as the Outbreak Prime is the reward for a lengthy and complicated quest – and it already requires effort to even obtain this quest line. Is the effort worth it?

This is what the raid weapon “Outbreak Prime” can do

Currently, it is still too early to write a comprehensive review of Outbreak Prime. Only a few Guardians have the weapon. But its appearance and sound are well-received by some:

One thing is clear: This pulse rifle allows you a new gaming experience as it comes with unique perks. For this reason, Guardians say: “I don’t care if the weapon is practical; I want it!” The perks are more geared towards PvE and definitely focused on precision skills.

By the way, Outbreak Prime is not yet listed in the official database, the “Armory.” Therefore, our information comes from various forum posts and videos.

We present the perks in English:

  • The corruption spreads: Enemies hit repeatedly by this weapon release SIVA nanites that attack other enemies. Fallen take additional damage.
  • Virulence: Precision kills release a swarm of SIVA nanites that attack other enemies.
  • Outlaw: Precision kills with this weapon significantly improve reload speed.

You also have the choice between:

  • Lightweight: When held, this weapon gives you +2 character agility.
  • Handloaded: This weapon is effective at greater ranges.
  • Custom Stock: Increases weapon stability.

Furthermore, you can play with Soft Ballistics, Improved Ballistics, and Flinch Stability regarding recoil, impact, and range.

These are the stats of the (fully equipped) Outbreak Prime:

You will receive the weapon at Light Level 390. The flavor text for this weapon comes from Shiro-4:

“I’ve run the numbers. When you pull this trigger, one plus one equals zero. Every time.”

If you’re now excited about the weapon, we will detail on the next two pages how you can obtain it.

Hearthstone: Schamanen-Nerf und das Ende von Yogg-Saron

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

Shamans in Hearthstone are getting heavily nerfed. But Yogg-Saron is also in for a change.

At Blizzard, they’ve aimed to make changes to existing cards as infrequently as possible. Changes should only occur in exceptional cases when game balance requires it. It seems such a moment has now arrived. Shamans are dominating ranked games in Hearthstone. The developers are pulling the emergency brake and modifying some Shaman cards, but Warriors and neutral cards are also affected. Here are the changes for you:

Shaman:

  • Weapon of the Rockbiter now costs 2 mana (previously 1 mana).
  • Tuskarr Totemic can now only summon basic totems.
    Hearthstone Weapon of the Rockbiter Changes

Hunter:

  • Call of the Wild now costs 9 mana (previously 8 mana).

Warrior:

  • Execute now costs 2 mana (previously 1 mana).
  • Charge has been reworked. The spell now costs 1 mana and has the following effect: “Gives a friendly minion Charge. It cannot attack heroes this turn.”
    Hearthstone Charge Changes

Neutral Minions:

  • Ruthless Sergeant now has 1 attack (previously 2 attack).
  • Yogg-Saron, Hope’s End no longer casts spells if he is destroyed, silenced, transformed, or returned to his owner’s hand during his battle cry.
    Hearthstone Yogg-Saron Artwork

The changes will take effect with the next patch.

Cortyn says: I tend to get a bit dramatic, but for me, Yogg-Saron is now dead. This card had a very high random factor that was funny – I personally didn’t care whether I won or lost the game, as long as Yogg-Saron was spectacular. Now Yogg will be played and probably interrupted after three or four activated spells – that’s boring. Very boring.

I welcome the changes to the Shaman very much. I believe that the adjustments to the Tuskarr are a good opportunity to bring some excitement back to the game.

WoW: Legion – Arena week and changes to the Towers of the Watchers

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

The PvP quests of the “Towers of the Watchers” in WoW have been changed with the hotfix.

With the recent hotfix, alongside numerous adjustments to various classes, some changes were also made to the world quests. Especially the “Towers of the Watchers” have undergone some adjustments. At the launch of Legion, the associated world quests appeared every 2 hours and were quite popular among players – as completing such a quest was rewarded with 300 honor points and usually took only a few minutes. The problem was: Completing these quests was more lucrative than actual PvP, which surely was not the intention of the creators.

Wow legion pvp caster
Too much honor through questing? That was a concern for the developers.

Blizzard already pulled the emergency brake a few weeks ago and increased the respawn time of these quests to 24 hours and reduced the honor gain to 150, which had exactly the opposite effect: Nobody completed these quests anymore.

Now the developers have chosen a middle ground. The Towers of the Watchers now have a cooldown of 24 hours but grant 300 honor again (in addition to any other rewards). This way, the towers should remain lucrative while not competing with the “classic” PvP offerings, such as arena matches or battlegrounds. The main share of honor should ultimately come from actual PvP and not from farming mobs.

Apart from these changes, the weekly events have also started again yesterday. For one week, players will receive additional honor when they sign up for PvP skirmishes in the arena – the honor gain is increased by 50%. In front of the Violet Hold, there is also a quest that rewards a large amount of artifact power, honor, and a PvP reward after winning in 10 arena rounds.

In Destiny, on September 29th, the hotfix 2.4.0.3 is expected.

Bungie announced an update labeled 2.4.0.3 for this evening. This will be released exclusively on PS4 and Xbox One. The old consoles will remain on update 2.3.1.1.

destiny-raid-machine

2.4.0.3 is expected to be deployed around 7 PM. Once it is available for download, you may be removed from your activities and need to download and install the hotfix to play again. Or you might only be prompted to do so when you return to orbit. The CAT error code is possible.

And that’s all the information Bungie is providing. There is no mention of maintenance work or server downtime. After installing the patch, you should be able to start right back up.

The patch notes are not yet known. Bungie will publish them as soon as the update goes live.

Prominent issues include the skeleton key problem and the glitch in “Wrath of the Machine”.

The Division: Server down on September 29 – Also the PTS

Tom Rothstein Tom Rothstein Reading time < 1 minutes

Today, on September 29th, maintenance work is taking place for The Division. The servers are offline.

The day before yesterday, Massive released a massive list of patch notes – with detailed changes that are already playable on the PTS. However, these are not the final changes, as some details may still change before the release of Update 1.4.

However, Patch 1.4 is not the only thing the developers are currently working on. Maintenance work is also taking place today. This is significantly shorter than usual and will start a little later.

At 9:30 AM the servers will be shut down. The expected downtime is one hour, so it should continue around 10:30 AM.

In addition, it is stated that the public test servers will also be maintained starting at 9:30 AM. The maintenance work is expected to last 4 hours.

Changes that are being implemented today are not specified. They are just doing a little work in the background on the servers. However, later in the day, a State of the Game report is expected, in which Massive will talk about The Division. We will report on that.

Paladins – Huge success on Steam and expanded eSport tournament

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time < 1 minutes

Paladins is neither an Overwatch clone nor a failure for developers Hi Rez Studios. As the hero shooter title is currently doing exceptionally well on Steam, the organizers for the upcoming eSports tournament in January have allowed more teams to participate.

Paladins went into open beta on September 16, and within the first 24 hours, over 100,000 accounts were registered. This allowed the hero shooter from Hi Rez Studios to enter the list of the top 10 most played games on Valve’s distribution platform straight off the bat.

This pleased the developers at Hi Rez Studios, and since the game is quite popular among competitive players, they have quickly expanded the upcoming Paladins tournament in January 2017. As a result, teams from Brazil, Latin America, Australia, New Zealand, and China can now qualify in regional championships for the major tournament. A prize pool of 150,000 US dollars is at stake.

Paragon: Patch discards unique feature

Pascal Pascal Reading time 3 minutes

Tuesday was patch day in the open beta MOBA Paragon and again changes were introduced that many players find hard to understand.

The loss of the unique feature

Paragon, the open beta MOBA from Epic Games, known for their fast shooters, received an update last Tuesday that most players want to see reverted. So what happened?

Once again it concerns the Prime Guardian and its Prime Orb, a sphere that it dropped upon death which had to be taken to a specific point in the enemy’s half of the map to activate a buff for the team or to reconstruct lost inhibitors.

paragon2
The object of controversy – The Prime Guardian

However, with the current patch, the Prime Orb was completely removed from the game. Now, when a team kills the Prime Guardian, the team buff (more specifically, the activation of the main cards of the team) activates immediately. Thus, this guardian now functions much like a Baron in LoL.

paragon3

But why are countless players complaining about this change? On one hand, because Epic Games is taking away an important unique feature that led to exciting team fights at the drop-off point of the orb, and to some tactical plays that are now completely gone.

On the other hand, due to the current focus on reducing game time and the ongoing unresolved issues with general balance, extreme situations are being created. With the removal of the Prime Orb, it is even easier for some characters to take down the guardian alone. Team fights in that area? Absent. Those who want to know more should check out the article on the current state of Paragon.

What’s broken stays broken

Paragon, the MOBA that wants to set the standard for all others, is taking a cue from other genre colleagues and introducing a homogenized mechanic. However, with the removal of the Prime Orb, the ability to rebuild inhibitors is also lost.

paragon4

Not only will they now, if destroyed, remain broken. Furthermore, the regeneration rate of the inhibitors has been decreased, which leads to them regenerating less health during an attack, making it easier to destroy an inhibitor earlier in the match.

This may lead to shorter matches, but at the cost of the carries, as they have hardly any chance to reach their peak performance. Tanks like Rampage, who can currently take down towers single-handedly, or casters like Gideon, who can finish off early-damaged opponents with his cosmic rift, take the lead rather than Murdock or Twinblast.

Pascal says: While attempts are made to counter the issue of missing XP in the current patch by shortening the spawn time of collectors, I believe this cannot change much about the current situation.

paragon5

The new skins for some characters can hardly compensate for the current issues.

Additionally, the speed of the travel mode has been reduced. This will be completely removed in one of the next patches, which also does not meet with a good response from the community. Let’s just hope that Epic Games does not lose sight of the overall picture, develops completely past its community, and brings the whole system back together into a coherent, enjoyable, and exciting gaming experience.

Echo of Soul: Totgesagte leben länger

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time < 1 minutes

Echo of Soul makes another attempt and starts a second time in Korea – thanks to a new publisher.

When Echo of Soul launched in Korea a while ago, the game was a huge success and even temporarily competed with the long-standing favorite League of Legends. However, the game struggled significantly in the endgame and lost many players because there were hardly any satisfying contents that could keep fans engaged for long. The result was that Echo of Soul was shut down in Korea last October.

Revival of the Korean Servers

Kakao Games has now secured the local publishing rights and will revive the game in the coming months – an open beta is expected to take place in October.

In a press conference, the publisher and developer announced what the future holds for Echo of Soul. Fans can especially look forward to the new “Tank” class and a lot of adjustments and changes to the original game to make the endgame more exciting. New areas and PvP zones will be added, along with recurring events.

The English servers are still under Aeria Games. However, it is quite conceivable that the English version will receive some updates from these changes.

WoW: Legion – Big Upheaval in the Forums – No Quest Items in LFR!

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

World of Warcraft is collecting negative points again from LFR fans. They are not receiving quest items.

Hardly a day goes by without some group of players getting upset in World of Warcraft. This has happened again now that the first wing of the LFR version of the “Emerald Nightmare” raid has been unlocked. Many players are currently trying to complete the quest “The Essence of Power,” which promises a new design for the artifact weapon (at the very end of the quest line).

WoW Nightmare Spider Boss

Today came the rude awakening: In LFR, the bosses do not drop the needed quest items. Immediately, numerous discussions broke out in the official forum about whether this is a bug. However, Blizzard clarified pretty quickly:

“With the opening of the first wing of the Emerald Nightmare in LFR mode, we wanted to mention that the quest items for “The Essence of Power” and “In the Nightmares” cannot be obtained in LFR. The description of these quests will be updated in a future patch, and the quests are meant to be completed in either normal or harder mode.”

So, anyone wanting to obtain the corresponding items and complete quests will have to find an intact raid group or gather some players around them.

Cortyn says: Overall, I think it’s good that there are some quest lines that only offer purely cosmetic rewards, like a new artifact weapon skin, which can only be completed in normal or harder mode. That’s exactly what prestige items are supposed to be: visual toys to showcase one’s achievements.

However, Blizzard did not do themselves any favors by not making this clear in the quests beforehand. At least the uproar in the forums is understandable. Still, I hope that Blizzard remains steadfast on this.

Heroes of the Storm – Platz da für Zarya! Und Nukes!

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time 2 minutes

Heroes of the Storm, Blizzard’s fun MOBA, receives the second Overwatch heroine, Zarya, along with a new Starcraft map, Warhead Junction. Read here what it’s all about!

After the last appearance of the rude Protoss Alarak from Starcraft 2 in Heroes of the Storm, today we have the next new heroine. This time Zarya from the hero shooter Overwatch joins the hero selection, and just like her companion Tracer , she has been faithfully transferred from Overwatch to Heroes of the Storm. Additionally, we received the map Warhead Junction as a new playground.

The perfect off-tank!

Zarya is also an offensive tank in Heroes of the Storm, as her gameplay revolves around the use of her shields, which protect herself and friends. For every damage she prevents, her energy increases. And like in Overwatch, this strengthens her regular attacks, allowing her particle beam and particle grenade to deal significantly more damage.

As ultimates, Zarya can use the known Graviton Charge from Overwatch to hold enemies at a point. Alternatively, she has another ability, unique to Heroes of the Storm, which creates a field that no enemy may enter. This allows Zarya to create tactical barriers. However, since she is heavily reliant on her shields, Zarya should always venture out with at least one teammate. This is the only way to ensure the necessary energy for maximum firepower!

I blow everything up!

While we had to protect Zerg last update, the new map Warhead Junction gifts us an arsenal of nuclear warheads. These respawn at fixed points on the map, and whoever finds a bomb can carry it and throw it at the enemy whenever they want. The nuclear explosion deals immense damage and is a key to victory.

However, if someone carrying a bomb gets killed, they hand over the warhead to the enemy, which must be prevented at all costs. As a special fun element, there are two big Zerg creatures on the map that we can recruit as mercenaries. By the way, we already played Zarya and the new maps weeks ago at GamesCom 2016.

Jürgen says: Zarya is my favorite heroine from Overwatch, and Starcraft is my favorite Blizzard universe. Therefore, tonight is already reserved. See you in the Nexus!

Destiny: A glitch in the new raid allows a boss to be skipped

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time < 1 minutes

In Destiny , a glitch is causing a stir, as a boss can literally be skipped.

The new raid “Wrath of the Machine” has three bosses. The middle one, the Siege Engine, can be completely skipped by players. This is currently circulating on reddit and elsewhere.

It’s not a big deal. If you find the right point, you can jump through the barriers and skip the entire boss encounter. You can even get the chest this way.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXQ_OwyMZyg

Glitches have a long tradition in Destiny. Especially in “The Glassed Chamber,” Guardians were constantly looking for exploits that they affectionately called “Cheeses” to ease the more challenging parts of the raid.

But this seems a bit too far. One can probably expect that Bungie will fix the glitch soon. It’s probably better not to get used to skipping and to tackle the rather short raid in full.

Regular tips on how to survive the Wrath of the Machine can be read in our raid guide:

No Man’s Sky wird wegen irreführender Werbung untersucht

No Man’s Sky is now facing an investigation by an advertising standards authority.

According to Eurogamer, the Advertising Standards Authority, a UK advertising industry watchdog, has launched an investigation into No Man’s Sky after several complaints regarding the game’s advertising were made.

The ASA can withdraw advertisements. If an advertiser opposes an ASA ruling and ignores it, serious sanctions may follow. For instance, search engines may stop displaying the paid advertisements.

The ASA is not commenting on the investigation as it is still ongoing. However, it seems to revolve around the game’s Steam page, which includes some items that some people find misleading.

It concerns screenshots and videos that show a large-scale battle, advanced animal behavior, and ship flying attributes that did not make it into the launch version of the game.

If the ASA rules against No Man’s Sky, it could have implications not only for the Steam presence but also for the PlayStation Store. It could be removed from there.

These players will be available in packs from today, 7 PM, until next Wednesday, 7 PM.

What is the TOTW anyway?

Every Wednesday, EA Sports reveals the Team of the Week in the “Ultimate Team” mode of their annual football simulation. This also applies to FIFA 17. Players who showed outstanding performances in real football over the past week are rewarded with special cards that have improved attributes.

You can pull the TOTW cards from those sets containing Rare (Gold) players within a week. However, the chance for this should be considered low. You can also buy them on the transfer market if other players offer them. However, the prices are often extremely high.

Good luck with opening packs!

Battlefield 1 Companion App: Release in Autumn – New Features and Functions

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time < 1 minutes

The Battlefield Companion App is the result of a complete overhaul of the Battlelog Mobile App with an optimized user interface. 

A revamped app will be available for Battlefield players this fall. At the release of Battlefield 1, the Battlelog Mobile App was completely redesigned and now offers several new features and a fresh look. According to developers, this app is aimed at enhancing the Battlefield experience. With this app, you can, for example, change your gear in Battlefield 1 or view statistics and achievements.

Supports Battlefield 1 and Battlefield 4

The Battlefield Companion has received a optimized interface. A new, fresh look provides you with better navigation options within the software. Your Battlefield profile is now displayed in the Career section. There you can see the statistics and achievements of yourself and your friends and also compare performances. With the app, you can analyze and change your soldier’s equipment on the go. Full support for Battlefield 1 is provided.

You can access the Battlelog Mobile App after the update through the Battlefield Companion and mobile browsers. If you do not want to update your Battlelog Mobile App to the Battlefield Companion, you will have to decline future updates for the app. The Companion also supports Battlefield 4 alongside Battlefield 1.

This is how you can play Battlefield 1 before the official launch.

Atlas Reactor – Laser-Lady Juno als neuer Tank angekündigt

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time < 1 minutes

Atlas Reactor, the wacky cyberpunk MOBA game with turn-based gameplay, will soon have a new heroine. She is a tough woman named Juno, who blasts away with laser cannons and hinders her opponents.

The heroes called “Freelancers” in Atlas Reactor are quite a crazy bunch, including cyber cowboys, robo-dogs, mutants, computer anomalies, anarcho-girls, and aliens. Now a robust woman with ghetto slang named Juno is added to this illustrious selection. She uses two hefty laser cannons that cover a very wide effect radius.

Additionally, she has a strong shield that makes Juno the ideal tank. While the shield is active, Juno takes very little damage. Furthermore, Juno can pin down enemies, and when they try to move, they take damage. She can also knock enemies over and, as her ultimate ability, unleash a continuous laser beam for several rounds across the battlefield.

Atlas-Reactor-Juno-Anchor


Juno is thus a very offensive tank that requires good timing. The new heroine for Atlas Reactor will be released on September 30 and is free for all buyers of Atlas Reactor. Free mode players will have to wait until Juno appears in the free rotation.
