Destiny: A Warlock for the Wardrobe – Impressive Cosplay

In Destiny, a fan showcases his Warlock cosplay. This is definitely worth showing off.

Each of you surely has your favorite class in Destiny: the unyielding Titan, the daring Hunter, or the battle-hardened Warlock. And perhaps many have dreamed of donning the cool armor of their favored Guardian and posing in front of a mirror with a powerful weapon in hand.

For most of us, this idea probably remains in the realm of fantasy. However, the prop maker Eric Newgard makes this dream come true: he created a complete Warlock suit, which exhibits impressive quality. See for yourself:

Newgard is a passionate cosplayer who proudly showcased his Warlock in public for the first time at RTX Convention 2016. Two of these pictures also feature the Void Sword, which he crafted himself – along with the other Willbreaker swords.

What do you think of this Warlock for the wardrobe?

Pokémon GO: Rare Pokémon that can already be caught

Every successful trainer needs these rare Pokémon in Pokémon GO!

Pidgey, Rattata, and Zubat are just a few names that many Pokémon GO players probably can’t hear or see anymore. This isn’t because these Pokémon make extremely stupid noises, but simply because they are widely spread. These species of Pokémon appear so frequently that it’s no longer special to catch them. But what about the rarer Pokémon? Which ones are already in the game?

Rare Pokémon in Pokémon GO

Keep in mind that depending on the location, some Pokémon appear more often than others (Typical locations for Pokémon types can be found here), and therefore the term “rare” is heavily location-dependent in some cases. However, in the case of many Pokémon, we can agree that they are indeed very hard to find .

Pokemon GO widely spread

Widely spread are:

  • Caterpie, Weedle, Pidgey, Rattata, Oddish, Paras, Zubat, Meowth, Psyduck, Magnemite, Gastly, Krabby, Ekans, Sandshrew, Nidoran F and M, Zubat, Machop, Quagsire, Machoke, Budew, Geodude, Voltorb, Goldeen, Magikarp, and Eevee
Pokemon GO Widely Spread

Pokemon GO Special and Epic

  • Bulbasaur, Charmeleon, Blastoise, Venusaur, Charizard, Wartortle, Porygon, Omanyte, Aerodactyl, Clefairy, Tauros, Ampharos, Dragonite
Legendary

Legendary are:

  • Ditto, Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Mewtwo

Ditto is listed here as legendary because it has not been found in the game yet. There is no trace of Mew in Pokémon GO so far.

SWTOR: Next expansion announced for 2016

The new expansion for Star Wars: The Old Republic has been revealed: Knights of the Eternal Throne.

This autumn, BioWare’s story is set to continue. With the previous expansion, Knights of the Fallen Empire, the developer attempted to make the story more interesting and significant. With Knights of the Eternal Throne, they aim to continue this effort. Chapter 1 of the prequel story, “The Hunt,” is already available to play for free, including a level 60 character.

And since Star Wars: The Old Republic is celebrating its birthday, there are gifts for you. With the code CelebrationCantina16, which can be redeemed through your account, you will receive a glider.

What can we expect?

This is a direct continuation of the previous expansion, which you do not have to have played. Purchasers of the new campaign will also receive the old one to experience the entire story.

Not much is known about the contents yet, as they will be properly introduced at a later time. It is known that some old characters are returning, and there will also be co-op content.

The Division: FireCrest – Das Set für Agenten, die gerne mit dem Feuer spielen

In The Division, we present the equipment set FireCrest.

The Underground expansion brought four new, unique gear sets into the game. Agents on PS4 will have to wait until August 2nd for these, as the expansion will only be released for them a month later. Since Update 1.3, only the AlphaBridge set is available for all agents.

One of these four Underground-exclusive sets is called FireCrest. Agents are wondering: “Is it worth it or can it go?” Let’s take a look at FireCrest.

What makes FireCrest stand out in The Division

According to the patch notes, FireCrest is a set for an offensive playstyle, which allows you to light your enemies on fire. If you enjoyed playing with fire as a child, this set is meant for you.

division-drachenhort-cleaner

FireCrest consists of a total of six individual pieces. You will mostly find them in the Underground, in Hard, Challenge, and Heroic modes. They can also be found in Underground containers. Other locations include the Dark Zone, especially supply drops, and the Assault Dragon’s Nest.

If you collect and equip several individual pieces, certain bonuses are activated. With four armor pieces, you unlock the unique talent. Here are the bonuses:

  • 2 pieces: +3 incendiary grenade capacity. When you fully replenish your supply, you won’t run out of incendiary grenades as quickly.
  • 3 pieces: +100% reload speed. This bonus is quite useful. The shorter the reload time, the more damage per time you can deal. Definitely worth considering.
  • 4 pieces: Talent FireCrest: When you kill a burning target, you receive incendiary grenades for 10 seconds.

The design idea behind the set is clear: You should be able to heat things up for the enemies. You have more incendiary grenades in your inventory and additionally receive more when you eliminate burning enemies.

division-brand

There are several ways to set enemies on fire: with incendiary grenades, with the seeker mine with air detonation, with the flamethrower turret, or even with explosive barrels near the enemies. However, the set is mainly designed to make enemies dance with incendiary grenades.

However, there are significant downsides: The talent activates far less often than one would wish. Burning enemies are only on fire for 3 seconds. The duration of this effect from special ammo was reduced from ten to three seconds with Update 1.3. And it is relatively rare to land the killing blow within this short time.

The YouTuber ThePwnstar4hire speculates that the talent for incendiary grenades was designed as they were before the update. Because currently, one hardly benefits from the FireCrest talent.

One could now consider whether one wants to transform into a half “Cleaner,” focusing solely on fire skills and fully aligning the build with the talent. However, this specialization is not really worthwhile, as 10 seconds of incendiary grenades are not outstanding—if the talent’s effect even activates at all.

If you still absolutely want to become an agent who throws incendiary grenades around, it’s worth taking a look at the Reclaimer set. This not only provides you with unlimited incendiary ammo, but the whole team also benefits from it.

In conclusion, the only interesting aspect of the FireCrest set is the 3-set bonus. The talent activates far too rarely—and when it does, it is not really useful. Some agents even refer to it as the worst set talent ever.

Bossk-Star-Wars
Bossk

The bounty hunter Bossk is coming. He is a Trandoshan and more of a minor character in the films. The other hero is a certain Chewbacca, who takes on a significantly more central role in the films as a buddy of Han Solo and a rhetorical, well-articulated linguistic genius. No further details about the Wookiee and Bossk are available at the moment, except for a screenshot, which we have embedded as the title.

In honor of Chewie, we actually said “Hello” to Wookiee in the title, if the Wookiee translator is correct.

The Death Star DLC will be available in September for season pass holders at least. Those who buy it individually will then have to wait.

Further info on the future of Battlefront: DICE will be supported in the development of Star Wars Battlefront 2 by “Motive Studios”. They belong to EA, are based in Canada, and are still relatively young.

Overwatch: Der Umgangston wird rauer – was tut Blizzard gegen Flamer und Hater?

Insults in Overwatch are on the rise. Blizzard wants to improve the reporting system to tackle such people.

More feedback for “reporting” players in Overwatch

The longer Overwatch is on the market, the more the tone of interaction in all game modes changes. Where there was understanding and tolerance a few weeks ago, anger and dissatisfaction are now slowly reacting when players do not deliver the performance expected of them. In an interview with Kotaku, Jeff Kaplan explained what this is actually about and how they want to tackle it.

“For the most part, the Overwatch community has been fantastic. But toxicity is not only present in ranked play. As the game ages, the dark sides of people show more frequently, especially when there is a ranking at stake.”

Overwatch Symmetra Fist
With a hard fist against flamers. That remains Blizzard’s line.

When asked how they wanted to tackle this issue, Kaplan also responded.

“Some systems that are not public have been improved in recent weeks. Much of it is relatively secret – and there is a reason for that. If we reveal too much, players will find ways to circumvent these systems. For example, the “report player” feature has been made more aggressive since the introduction of ranked play. I wish there were more things visible to players without negative players benefiting from them.”

One possibility being considered is a notification once a reported player is penalized. “Currently, players are not informed when we take action and that is frustrating.” Many players feel as if they are just sending a report “into a void” that never has consequences. However, that is definitely not the case.

It may still take some time before noticeable improvements are experienced.

Pokémon GO: So fängt man Pokémon auf dem Nürburgring

Even on racetracks, you can be successful with Pokémon GO!

Pokémon GO has just been released recently, but it is already being played all over the world. Strange locations for the monsters keep appearing on the internet. In our collection of the funniest images, videos, and tweets about Pokémon GO, you will get a good impression of it.

Nürburgring with Bat Plague

You wouldn’t have thought it, but even the Nürburgring is used to catch wild Pokémon. Although you catch Pokémon there, they do not have rally stripes in their fur or spoilers on their backs – they remain ordinary Pokémon that have just been caught under “interesting conditions”. The YouTuber Boosted Boris thought it would be a funny idea to hire a “Ring-Taxi” to catch a few of the little monsters on the racetrack. The video is definitely funny!

Pokémon Go: Battery dead? – Use a power bank to charge your smartphone on the go

Playing Pokémon GO outside, but the battery is running low? No problem! If you don’t have an outlet to charge your smartphone while you’re on the go, a power bank can help.

Smartphones and tablets have become increasingly popular today, especially when used on the go – particularly since Pokémon Go has been on everyone’s lips and hands. The problem is that while the technology of smartphones and tablets is constantly improving, the battery often doesn’t receive much attention. My Nokia 3310 has been sitting in a drawer in the basement for about 14 years and probably still has 3 out of 4 battery bars.

Mobile, compact charging stations are the solution

Most of you will be familiar with the term “power bank.” For those who can’t make sense of it, here’s a brief explanation:

Portable charger bag

A power bank is essentially a portable battery charging station that can be connected to your smartphone or tablet. Because a power bank is usually quite compact, it doesn’t take up much space and can easily be carried in a backpack, handbag, or even comfortably in your pocket. If the battery of your phone gets low while you’re on the move, you can connect the phone to the power bank using a charging cable to charge the battery. The good thing is, you’re not bound to a specific location, as you would be with an outlet, but can continue on your way comfortably.

Depending on the capacity of the power bank, you can charge your smartphone or tablet multiple times (sometimes more than 6 times) before you need to recharge the power bank at home.

Power banks and Pokémon GO – Discount for Mein MMO readers

Powerbank tablet phone smartphone

The current Pokémon GO hype is bringing many trainers outside to hunt wild Pokémon with their smartphones. Such a hunt can last several hours, and most smartphones reach their limits if a single app is open continuously. So that you don’t have to interrupt your Pokémon adventure, but can continue searching for Tauboss, Pikachu, Dratini, and co. with the help of a power bank, there’s a power bank from Anker.

With the Anker PowerCore 20100, you can charge an iPhone 6 over seven times or a Galaxy S6 five times while on the go. With special PowerIQ and VoltageBoost technology, you charge your mobile devices at the fastest possible speed. Charging the power bank at the outlet takes only about 10 hours.

Destiny: Top players discovered in quirky commercial

In the MMO shooter Destiny , a bizarre advertisement brings laughter, featuring a well-known streamer, YouTuber, and Destiny expert.

The name TeftyTeft – or simply Tefty – is likely familiar to the die-hard Destiny fans among you: He streams and publishes videos for the major English-language site “Planet Destiny” and also maintains his own YouTube and Twitch channels. Tefty is considered a top-tier PvP player.

On his own YouTube channel, Tefty initially only presented Destiny info videos. However, he has since gained more recognition and regularly hosts podcasts about Bungie’s MMO shooter Destiny.

Now a weird advertisement has emerged in which TeftyTeft plays a role. The video is already over 7 years old but only recently caused hearty laughter in a podcast. The spot was likely recorded to test a camera. See for yourself:

PlayStation 4 Neo: New leak reveals details about the hardware

A leak about the PlayStation 4 NEO provides a detailed overview of the specifications of the upcoming console.

Even though Sony is still keeping quiet about their upcoming console, there is new information regarding the PS4 Neo. This is a leak, so the following information should be taken with caution.

Improved Hardware of the PlayStation 4 Neo

To achieve 4K quality, hardware needs to be upgraded. The alleged specs indicate that the PS4 Neo uses an AMD processor with eight Jaguar cores. The CPU clock speed is increased from 1.6 to 2.1 GHz.

According to the leak, the GPU is set to feature 36 Compute Units (instead of 18) with a higher clock rate (911 MHz instead of 800 MHz).

This means games not only look better, but the frames remain stable, leading to fewer “stutters.” The TFLOPs are still expected to be 4.2, which represents the number of calculations that can be performed per second. Even if you don’t own a TV with such a high resolution, you will still benefit from the new device.

playstation-4-white
The old PlayStation 4 remains

The company has emphasized multiple times that Neo is not intended to replace the PlayStation 4. The leak confirms this statement. However, developers are allowed to adapt their games for the new system to utilize the new features.

In summary, the PlayStation 4 Neo has a better performance than the standard PS4, which is likely to be lower than that of the Xbox Scorpio. However, it is also possible that the leak – if true – is already outdated and Sony has changed their strategy. The file itself has since been deleted and is no longer accessible. Images were omitted here to avoid copyright infringements.

When the console will be released is still unknown. Mass production is expected to begin before 2017.

Evolving Eevee in Pokémon GO: This trick works

A new trick in Pokémon GO allows you to control Evoli’s evolution!

Actually, the internet community around Pokémon GO was sure that the evolution of Evoli was random to Vaporeon, Jolteon, or Flareon. Initially, it was assumed that the additional attacks determined which of the 3 Pokémon Evoli would evolve into. However, everything is quite different than previously thought, as Evoli seems to depend its evolution on how it is addressed.

Evoli can now also evolve into Umbreon and Espeon. 

Evoli catching -> Giving nickname -> Desired evolution

In these three simple steps, you can quickly achieve the desired evolution of the little Evoli. Catching is probably still the most challenging step in this guide. In the Pokémon episode “The Unequal Brothers,” you saw the Evoli brothers, and each of them had their own evolution of the little Pokémon.

Pokemon GO Evoli Brothers
  • Sparky’s evolution was Jolteon
  • Rainer had a Vaporeon
  • Pyro had a Flareon in this episode

The evolution of Evoli: Here’s how you can evolve the Pokémon intentionally

  1. Catch an Evoli
  2. Give it the corresponding Evoli brother name as a nickname
  3. Sparky = Jolteon
  4. Rainer = Vaporeon
  5. Pyro = Flareon
  6. Then click “OK”
  7. After that, you should completely close and restart your Pokémon GO app to ensure the name is saved on the servers.
  8. In the game, click on your Pokémon overview and select Evoli.
  9. If you have enough Evoli candies, you can now evolve your Evoli.
  10. You should now receive your desired evolution of Evoli.
https://youtu.be/5u38bQu7BfY

Keep in mind that you can only control the intended evolutions of Evoli. Evolving into the best Pokémon is, of course, not possible. Even if you would like to have different desired Pokémon as an outcome, attempts like this have unfortunately failed:

Neverwinter on PlayStation 4: This is our first impression

Since July 12, it has been possible for owners of the Onyx Advantage Pack to play the MMORPG Neverwinter on the Playstation 4.

All others will have to wait until July 19, when the official launch of the Free2Play MMO takes place. We have already dived into the adventures on Sony’s gaming console and familiarized ourselves with the new controls and other adjustments.

neverwinter ps4
Neverwinter is Neverwinter plus controller

In terms of content, Neverwinter on the PS4 matches the state of the PC and Xbox One version. All previously available modules are included, meaning you will have plenty of content offered to you, leading from the city of Neverwinter through Icewind Dale to the Underdark. PvP players can look forward to the Strongholds addon, which offers the ability to build your own castles and wage siege battles against rival guilds. So there’s plenty of adventure and challenges for Playstation 4 players.

Gameplay still occurs from a third-person perspective, guiding your character through the vast areas. The available races Humans, Dwarves, Elves, Half-Elves, Tieflings, Halflings, Half-Orcs, and Drow remain unchanged, as do the classes. Here you choose between Guardian Fighter, Two-Handed Weapon Fighter, Battle Cleric, Trickster Rogue, Tactical Wizard, Hunters Ranger, Devastating Warlock and Oathbound Paladin. Each race and class gives you advantages and disadvantages that you’ll need to weigh before making a decision and giving your hero a unique appearance and name.

Neverwinter-Nasen

Now you explore the areas, talk to NPCs, trade, accept quests, and fight numerous enemies like undead, orcs, and demons in fast-paced and action-packed battles. Of course, not (only) alone. You team up with other players to experience adventures together, complete raids and compete against each other in PvP battles. So far, all of this is known from the PC version of the MMO. However, the controller controls are new.

Anyone switching from the PC version to the Playstation 4 version of Neverwinter will need to adjust a little. On PC, it’s possible to map many skills and actions to the keyboard keys. However, the Dual-Shock-4 controller of the Playstation 4 does not have quite as many buttons. Therefore, there are also key combinations. Certain attacks, for instance, are mapped to the "L1" and "Triangle" buttons when the other buttons are already assigned. You need to get used to this a bit, and it takes a little while for all button assignments and combinations to become second nature. However, once you have mastered the controls, you can enjoy the fast-paced battles just as much as on PC.

Neverwinter: The Race Dragonborn

Neverwinter PS4: An adjusted interface

In addition to the controls, the UI has also been adjusted. Everything appears slightly larger. For example, the inventory offers larger slots with larger icons. This sometimes means that you need to scroll to see everything. However, you can quickly get used to that. The clarity remains intact. The hotbar in the game has been changed by Cryptic Studios to reflect the button layout of the controller. This way, you can also directly see in the game which button to press for a specific action.

Those who play a lot on the console will surely find it easy to navigate the controls and UI. PC gamers, however, need some time to adjust. However, we had just as much fun on the PS4 as we did on PC after a short time. What is quite disappointing, however, is that the Foundry is not available in the console version. PC players create their own quests and areas using the editor and then make them available to other players. This brings a steady stream of content, which admittedly is not always convincing. Nevertheless, there are good quests that you would certainly have enjoyed playing on the console as well.

Neverwinter Siege

We also missed a crossplay function between the different platforms. It would have certainly been fun to experience adventures in Neverwinter together with PC and Xbox One players. But these issues plague many MMORPGs, and we can’t really blame Neverwinter for it; it seems more to be a problem with Sony and Microsoft.

Is Neverwinter Pay2Win?

However, the well-known in-game shop is included. In this shop, you buy optional items that provide a certain level of comfort. Opinions are divided on whether or not the items enable Pay2Win. We believe this depends on what you expect from the game. If you want to play through all the content as quickly as possible, have the best equipment, and be the most powerful player, you will probably have no choice but to spend money in the shop.

However, if you don’t care and just want to experience the story at a comfortable pace, complete quests, and have fun with friends, you generally don’t need to invest anything. With Neverwinter, you can also have a lot of fun on the Playstation 4, and an MMO fits the console very well. If you don’t want to wait until July 19, you can participate in our giveaway and with a bit of luck win one of the Onyx Advantage Packs, with which you can start immediately!

Conclusion by Andreas Bertits – Is Neverwinter worth it on the Playstation 4? 

I spent countless hours with Neverwinter on PC and had a lot of fun without spending a cent. When I checked out the Playstation 4 version of the MMO and got used to the controller controls and the adjusted UI after a short adjustment period, I was back in the thick of the battle for Neverwinter city. Since I have already experienced many pen & paper adventures in the Forgotten Realms and played almost every D&D video RPG, I always look forward to being able to lay back on the couch, take the controller, and play Neverwinter on the Playstation 4. While the MMO is still not perfect, I still have a lot of fun with it.

WoW: Legion – Releasedatum für Prepatch veröffentlicht

The pre-patch for Legion finally has a date. We will tell you when the new era of World of Warcraft will begin.

Starting July 20, a taste of Legion begins

For many weeks and months, players and fan sites have speculated about when the big preparation patch for World of Warcraft: Legion will appear. Now Blizzard has announced a definite date and stated: The era of the Burning Legion begins on July 20, 2016.

After the server maintenance on that Wednesday, the new talents will be accessible to all players, along with a large part of the updated systems. However, the highlight for most will be the wardrobe, which allows players to collect skins for armor and weapons without having to store the items in their inventory or Void storage any longer. This means a lot of space in cluttered bags for veterans, so they can head to the Broken Isles with new collecting enthusiasm about 6 weeks later.

WoW Legion ActionCam Erelya Manawyrm

Players will have a few weeks to get used to the new systems before the invasions of the Burning Legion begin in August, which will be the introduction event for Legion. Finally, pre-orderers will be allowed to play the starting area of the new class “Demon Hunter” in advance, so they can level up to level 100 already and storm the Broken Isles on August 30 with everyone else.

A large part of the game data can be downloaded in advance, so you won’t have to redownload over 20 GB on July 20. You can make the relevant settings in the battle.net client.

The Adaptive Player Intelligence in FIFA 17

Thanks to a new system, players on the field continuously analyze the spaces. This improves the AI’s understanding of space, its behavior off the ball, and how players move and react.

  • Constant Game Awareness: Players analyze their surroundings and the distance to opponents to better recognize scoring opportunities. Teammates are expected to offer themselves for passes more intelligently or to create space.
  • New Running Paths: The revised player intelligence creates new, creative possibilities to outsmart the opposing defense. This allows for coordinated runs with multiple players, feigned runs, running fakes, and calling players into action. You will have more opportunities to gain control in the build-up play.

In this article about FIFA 17, we will show you the features Reworked Standards and Diverse Attack Techniques in the Trailer.

Atlantica Online macht zu und unter neuer Führung wieder auf

The MMO Atlantica Online is switching publishers. Instead of Nexon, Valofe will take over soon.

Atlantica Online is one of those games that are not quite among the mainstream MMOs of the first row that are constantly reported on, but almost. Because Atlantica Online is considered one of the leading games in the second row of free-to-play games. It relies on a unique approach with turn-based battles and “group-based” troops, so to speak. But it has already been around for a few years.

Now there’s a statement from Nexon Europe. They say: It has been 7 great years in Germany, but now they are coming to an end. We’re out, we will hand over the game to the publisher “Valofe”. They are known through games like S4 League

Anyone who wants to continue playing Atlantica Online will have to transfer their account to the new operator. The switch is supposed to take place “this autumn”. A detailed schedule and further details will be announced by Nexon later.

Pokémon GO: Diese Belohnungen gibts beim Level-UP

Some levels in Pokémon GO unlock new items for you.

In Pokémon GO, you earn experience points for your character for various actions in the game, such as catching or evolving Pokémon. But what are these points needed for and what rewards do you get when you’ve accumulated experience points for an entire trainer level?

5 tips for aspiring Pokémon trainers can be found here.

Experience Points and Level-Ups in Pokémon GO

You need experience points in Pokémon GO in order to level up. The required experience points increase with each level. It takes longer to level up in the higher levels than in the earlier levels. The higher your trainer level is, the greater the chance that you will catch strong Pokémon with high CP values.

Pokémon GO Level Up Experience

To provide extra motivation for level-ups, you receive a reward each time you reach a new level. At various levels, such as level 5, you also unlock items that you can then use in the game. At level 5, this is the “Revive,” which allows you to bring back Pokémon that have fainted.

Below you can see how much experience (XP) is needed for each level-up, what rewards you get for free, and which items you unlock.

Destiny: Over the Top Cool – How to Play as a Defender Titan in the Crucible

Currently, a video is making the rounds at Destiny, where watching it is simply fun. A Titan with the Defender focus is dominating in the Crucible.

Crucible montages are always hit or miss. There are countless ones online, many of which were posted with the intent: “Look what I can do, what a PvP beast I am.” However, most of them fail to impress an experienced Guardian.

On the other hand, there are also really creative montages that play with background music, show curious events, or are simply funny.

The following video falls into the latter category: It features a Defender Titan who casually uses his Bubble in the Crucible and takes out opponent after opponent. Anyone who hasn’t suffered through the Defender focus in PvP themselves might think there’s not much to it. However, the YouTuber The Destiny Fun Police makes it look so easy:

Defenders are allowed, this Defender is too casual

The game is played in the “Mayhem” mode, in the Clash. In this mode, Super abilities recharge more quickly. Thus, the Defender often has his Bubbles available.

destiny-titan-bubble

The YouTuber not only showcases some clever uses of his Super but also taunts his enemies with corresponding gestures. He uses a shotgun as a weapon, with which he can deal with opponents quickly.

Some might consider his behavior as arrogant. However, the positive reactions dominate in the comments: The video is great, the Guardian is outstanding, and it is incredibly impressive how easily he makes it all seem. The chill background music adds to the vibe.

What do you think of this video? Do you find it cool, or do you think the Titan’s behavior is too casual?


In this article, we show you how to climb the “Summit” in the Crucible. You need to master this for the “Year 2” Triumphs in Destiny.

Overwatch: Doch noch doppelte Helden in Season 2? Wann kommen endlich neue Skins?

In a player’s stream, Jeff Kaplan revealed details about the future of Overwatch. Is “Hero Stacking” still on the table?

“Ana” patch needs many changes

The Overwatch developers occasionally appear on the streams of some streamers and play a few rounds with them. This also happened on the Twitch channel of “ster”, who had the honor of playing a few matches with Jeff Kaplan on the test server. During the games, they talked about many topics, including the future of Overwatch. In particular, it was about the current patch, which in its current version might not even reach the live servers. The following changes were discussed:

  • Mercy’s damage buff will be reduced from 50% back to 30%
  • Zenyatta could drop from 200 to 175 health points
  • Currently, they are working on 4 new maps, but maybe not all will be released
  • New skins will come “before the end of summer”
  • The developers are working on new game modes, but the next map will contain a mode that is already known
  • Ranked matches in Season 2 should be shorter – the times for the attack will be reduced
  • The health bars for all allies will be displayed soon
Overwatch Zenyatta Iris

During the stream, Kaplan also elaborated a bit on the details of some changes. Large hitboxes on small characters would be necessary, as the small, fast heroes (like Tracer) would otherwise be overpowered. The recent changes on the PTR should ensure that you are no longer shot “around corners” due to a huge hitbox.

“Hero Stacking” was also a topic. Although this was not explicitly stated, the conversation suggests that in Season 2 they may revisit “Hero Stacking”, meaning multiple selections of the same hero.

Otherwise, many plans for the future were reaffirmed. With Season 2, they aim to eliminate the “Coin Flip”, meaning the random outcome of who is the attacker or defender in the case of a “Sudden Death”.
