Ubisoft has released a new update for the racing MMO The Crew: Wild Run.
This update introduces stunt races to the game. On special off-road tracks, you must showcase as many stunts as possible, but do not forget to hit all the checkpoints. This way, you can earn a lot of points, for example when performing spectacular 360° spins as well as forward or backward flips. By utilizing the many ramps on the tracks, you can execute stunts that will impress everyone. Of course, you need to pay attention to the right style and timing.
More Features
You can start the stunt races in the Summit for off-road and rally motorcycles. But the April update for The Crew: Wild Run offers even more. With the “Save and Share” feature for the free ride and speed trap challenges, you can save up to ten challenges and then share them with players directly in the game or via social networks using a unique ID.
Additionally, you will find new tools in the update, which allow you to adjust the weather and control your camera settings and viewpoints. This makes it possible to record even more interesting videos. The update also brings further improvements and adjustments. Furthermore, you can look forward to these new qualification events for the upcoming monthly Summit in the online racing game The Crew:
PVP:
Pennsylvania Heights – Off-road setup
Miami Downtown Tour – Performance setup
Long Beach Race Track – Track setup
PVE:
New Performance Time Trial in the Mountain States
New Rally Stunt Races in the Grand Canyon
New Drag Challenge in the East
New Drift Challenge in the West
New Performance Speed Trap in Las Vegas

BioWare introduces a new type of character customization in SWTOR , weapon tuning.
New, flashy color effects – SWTOR’s weapon tuning
The ability to continually customize your character in an MMORPG to make it a unique snowflake in the digital expanse is one of the most important revenue sources for many games. Star Wars: The Old Republic is no exception, as it also has a comprehensive system that includes costumes and other visual tweaks like coloring clothing.
These systems will further expand with the Chapter XIII of Knights of the Fallen Empire, “Loot and Profit”. With the patch, there will be a new “weapon tuning”. Some weapons have an additional slot where an upgrade can be installed – it works just like all other modifications in the game.
However, this weapon tuning is purely cosmetic, providing no stat boosts. Instead, they equip the weapon with lightning effects that look flashy on both lightsabers as well as blasters and cannons. It’s as if the technician was careless when crafting the weapon and is now desperately trying to prevent it from exploding.
Not all weapons have such a tuning slot, but suitable war gear can be obtained from various sources (raids, reputation, cartel market).
Hardly noticeable on lightsabers – the small lightning on the edge.
The controversy: The weapon tunings will initially only be available in cartel packs – they are thus random. Although they can also be resold in the trading network (auction house), fans are always dissatisfied when something is “only” available by chance.
Mein-MMO says: After having just admitted that there were minor bugs and larger problems upon the release of chapters that they now want to avoid, such an announcement seems somewhat out of place. Fans have voiced significant criticism that they are receiving less content for more money, along the lines of “13 euros do not justify a 20-minute chapter.” It does seem somewhat surprising that a new feature is coming that can – more or less – only be used through the purchase of cartel packs.
In World of Warcraft: Legion, much revolves around artifact weapons. These are given to players early on and grow alongside their wielders throughout the duration of the expansion. Each talent specialization receives its own weapon, which means mages have a total of 3 artifacts available. Let’s take a look at the individual weapons.
Arcane – Aluneth, Staff of the Magna (Artifact Weapon for Arcane Mages)
Background story: Only one woman has ever attained the rank of Guardian of Tirisfal: Aegwynn, the mother of Medivh and one of the most powerful female mages to have ever lived. She is the most known bearer of Aluneth, and the staff has since carried the nickname “Staff of the Magna”. Before Aegwynn relinquished her title as Guardian, she laid down the staff – but no one knows where it has rested since.
Properties of Aluneth, Staff of the Magna: Arcane mages specialize in slowing down enemies and causing massive damage spikes. Since mages are pure damage machines, many of the properties are simply blunt enhancements of existing spells.
All Arcane mages start with the Mark of Aluneth: In the target area, a magical prison is created that slows all affected enemies by 70% for 6 seconds and deals damage over time. After the effect ends, the prison explodes, dealing damage equal to 15% of the Arcane mage’s maximum mana.
The Touch of the Magi gives the Arcane spell a 10% chance to mark the struck enemy. For 6 seconds, the damage dealt by the mage is stored, before 10% of that damage then explodes in a small area around the target.
The Rule of Three gives your Arcane Missiles a 33.3% chance to fire a total of 3 additional Arcane Missiles.
Finally, Arcane Rebound improves the Arcane Barrage ability: If more than 2 targets are hit by Arcane Barrage, the primary target explodes for additional damage in a small area effect.
Fire – Felo’melorn (Artifact Weapon for Fire Mages)
Background story: Felo’melorn, the elvish term for “Flame Strike”, is a magical blade that has gathered fame for many millennia. It was already used by the high elf Dath’Remar during the War of the Ancients to combat the Burning Legion. Later, in Quel’thalas, it was the weapon of the Sunstrider family and served well in the Troll Wars. The last time the weapon was seen was in the hands of Kael’thas Sunstrider, when he crossed swords with Arthas in Northrend – but the blood elf prince had to retreat and the weapon was lost in the process.
Properties of Felo’melorn: Fire mages also embody the essence of a damage dealer, and this is reflected in the properties of the artifact weapon. Almost all standard properties increase the damage of abilities, however, “Blink” can also be improved to heal the mage for 60% of their health. Let’s look at the more exciting properties:
As befits Kael’thas’ weapon, Phoenix’s Flames hurls a burning phoenix at an enemy, causing damage and then dealing additional damage to all nearby enemies. Has up to 3 charges with a 30-second cooldown each.
Phoenix Reborn ensures that targets affected by “Ignite” suffer a bit more damage. Each time this happens, the remaining cooldown of Phoenix’s Flames is reduced by 2 seconds.
Those who love critical hits will adore Pyretic Incantation. Each time you cause consecutive critical hits, the damage of critical hits increases by 5%. This stacks until a non-critical hit occurs.
The property Blast Furnace ensures that each “Inferno Blast” additionally applies a DoT to the target, causing a small amount of damage over 9 seconds.
Frost – Ebonchill (Artifact Weapon for Frost Mages)
Background story: Alodi, the first Guardian of Tirisfal, wielded the weapon Ebonchill. For nearly a century, the staff served its bearer in this position, before Alodi retired from this office. However, he kept Ebonchill with him until his death. Only afterwards was the staff recovered by the Kirin Tor and safely stored, for if a mage with less experience than Alodi were to use the staff, it could have devastating consequences…
Properties of Ebonchill: For Frost mages, the standard properties of the artifacts are rather unremarkable. Critical damage takes center stage here, which can significantly be increased for almost all frost spells.
All Frost mages begin with Ebonbolt, a powerful spell that causes massive shadow frost damage, but it also has a cooldown of 45 seconds.
It’s Cold Outside is an upgrade of the Water Elemental. This now shoots frost shards instead of water bolts, causing a bit more damage and has a chance to grant the mage a stack of Frost Fingers.
With Black Ice, the weapon has a chance to temporarily increase the damage of Icicles by 100%.
Finally, Chilled to the Core enhances the spell Icy Veins. While it is active, all frost damage from the mage is increased by a whopping 20%.
This weekend, The Division offers Phoenix Credits for everyone. We summarize what they are for and how you can grab them, so you don’t miss out.
In recent weeks, things have not been running smoothly in The Division. That is probably clear to everyone. All the bugs, exploits, and cheats have caused frustration and bad moods. That is equally clear. To calm things down a bit, Massive is throwing around Phoenix Credits.
The official reason for this compensation, according to Community Developer Yannick Banchereau, is that the developers want to apologize for the fact that a few days before Update 1.1, no daily missions could be played in The Division. This disrupted the agents who wanted to stockpile Phoenix Credits in this way.
Here’s how to get your 150 Phoenix Credits
You will receive 150 Phoenix Credits as compensation. All you have to do is log in to the servers once this weekend. However, you won’t be served the PCs on a silver platter, and if you’re not too familiar with The Division, it may take you some time to find them. Here’s how to get them:
You need to head to the rewards vendor, who is secretly waiting for you with the Phoenix Credits. This guy hides in the farthest corner of the Operations Base. You can reach him by walking straight ahead from the entrance towards the Tech Wing, but then don’t go up the stairs; instead, continue straight down the hallway. At this vendor, you will also need to collect your rewards from the Ubisoft Club if you have unlocked something there and want to use it in the game.
Once you arrive at him, you just need to talk to him, switch to “Resources”, and grab the coveted currency.
The video provides insight into the beta of Crossout – a shooter where you control vehicles instead of characters.
If World of Tanks is too slow for you, but shooting with vehicles is your thing? Then YouTuber Refaser might have discovered just the right game for you. He is currently taking a look at the beta of Crossout and shares what he thinks about the game.
Crossout is a shooter with vehicles. No, not tanks, but ordinary cars. Although “ordinary” might not be the right word, as the vehicles can be individually assembled piece by piece – there are hardly any limits to creativity. Want more armor or an additional machine gun?
You can engage in team battles against other players on various battlefields and blast their hoods with different guns, from rifles to shotguns. If you prefer to battle against computer opponents, there are also some PvE missions available.
Particularly cool is the ability to demolish individual parts of the enemy’s equipment. If an opponent is too heavily armored, just shoot out all 4 tires, and he’ll be left immobilized until the round is over. With these damage models, precise aiming and tactical planning are essential.
If you feel a bit nostalgic about the childhood memories of PlayStation and Nintendo 64, you might remember the classic Vigilante 8.
In this article, we have already introduced Crossout and also explained how you can get into the beta yourself:
In the MMO shooter The Division, a YouTube channel has presented a video that was entirely created within The Division.
On the YouTube channel “The Two Scotsmen – Hoodoo_Operator”, a trailer has been released, consisting entirely of gameplay footage from The Division. This trailer aims to prepare for an upcoming fan-made film called “Chaos”, which will take place in the post-apocalyptic setting of Ubisoft’s shooter. There are hopes to release the first episode soon.
The film’s “Cinematic Story” follows a Division agent as she battles through the chaos in Manhattan. There will be no shortage of action and violence. With an impressive musical backdrop, the trailer gains the necessary drama. Just watch and listen for yourselves:

During the ongoing Pax East in Boston, a stream by the developers took place on Friday evening featuring Warframe, showcasing some upcoming innovations. What exactly is coming your way can be found out here.
New Warframe
All space ninjas who preferred to visit Baro Ki’Teer last night to stock up on useful mods or decorative items likely missed Digital Extremes’ preview of Warframe’s Update 19.0, which was broadcast live from Pax East in Boston. Therefore, we provide you with a brief summary of what was shown.
New female Warframe – available with Update 19.0
With the next expansion, there will be a new Warframe. This still unnamed character will revolve around the overarching theme of fairies, which will also be reflected in his or her abilities.
For example, razor-sharp butterflies will be at her disposal. Additionally, true to her design theme and mischievous nature, she will be able to transform into a small fairy and face off against the big bad enemies.
Rocket League in Warframe?
For fans of PvP, or rather those who may not have warmed up to it so far and tend to avoid battling other Tenno, a new game mode will be added to the Conclave. This will be sports-based and cater to players who master Warframe’s parkour mechanics. Lunaro will be its name, giving you the opportunity to earn Conclave reputation points away from the PvP slaughter. According to Digital Extremes, the inspiration for this new, yet to be defined mode, partly comes from Rocket League. This suggests a fun competition ahead.
…and the new Prime Warframe is…?
On Thursday, the developer released the first teaser image of the next Prime Access announced for late Spring. Unfortunately, you could already read in the URL who it will be. Vauban, possibly the hardest character to obtain (as his individual parts are only available through alerts), will be added to the ranks of the Primes.
A beautiful back can also please, in this case Vauban Prime
Additionally, the hammer Fragor and, after several image comparisons by the author, the dual pistol Aksomati will be added as Prime weapons. For completeness, it should be mentioned that the latter could also refer to the Akstiletto. Those who want to guess can take a look at the highlight trailer at the end of the article.
Focus with Extra Equipment
Furthermore, a preview of a new enemy type of the Sentient has been provided, the Exosuit Sentient. This will only be combatable using new additions to the existing focus system.
Left: New Exosuit Sentient; Right: A new type of weapon
Furthermore, a new type of weapon will be introduced to the game. This extremely powerful space ninja toy will, when equipped, replace an arm of your Warframe. Adam Jensen from Deus Ex says hello from afar.
Event with Duel Arena
A preview of the next event was also provided. Here, you will be contacted by the Grineer of the Steel Meridian Syndicate to capture defectors and hold them accountable in an arena. But beware: If you achieve some victories here, your own syndicate will contact you and advise you to no longer support Steel Meridian.
The revised Kela de Thaym will play a role in the event
This is intended to highlight the presence of the syndicates within the Warframe universe and their different and opposing views.
Warframe Veterans Listen Up
If you are among the long-standing space dwellers who have been through everything since the beginning, or simply those who sorely miss a challenge and corresponding rewards, it should be noted that the overhaul of the star chart has something to do with it again.
If you have unlocked all nodes, there will be a few among them where you can determine the difficulty yourself and thus also receive better loot.
The War Within
As a grand finale and conclusion of the Pax East Warframe podium, a teaser trailer titled “The War Within” was shown. Or better said, it should have been for the online viewers, if the internet hadn’t quit on site. However, those who missed it can catch it in the highlight trailer below.

This trailer is the first announcement of the next major expansion, which is said to revolve around the Grineer queens. So far, they have only been mentioned in various stories but never shown.
For some time now, longer poems revolving around the two heads have been progressively unlockable within the game. This is done through the scannable, hidden Kuria in many level environments and requires patience, time, and endurance. Qualities that a true space ninja embodies.
What are you most looking forward to? Or do the announcements leave you as cold as space?
If you’ve become interested in Warframe, it’s worth taking a look at our Warframe beginner guide.

In the MMO shooter Destiny, a creative and talented player has designed concepts for the interior of the spacecraft. These are impressive.
It has long been known that Destiny has a very imaginative and creative community: We have already reported on shader-birds, extravagant ghost shells, and numerous incredible Crota kills. Now we take a look at the creative ideas of a reddit user who has designed concepts for the interior of the spacecraft.
This is how the inside of the spacecraft in Destiny could look, right?
The reddit user DampSquid28 presents his designs to the community, showing how he envisions the interiors of the spacecraft. He uses a variety of elements that are familiar to us from the Tower. With artistic and architectural talent, he creates an atmosphere that comes very close to the original Destiny setting. Or what do you think?
Is this couch very comfortable? The Ghost seems to prefer relaxing on the table:
This could just as easily be a spot in the Tower:
On the long journeys, it seems that the reading material should not run out:
The user believes it would be cool if the Guardians in Destiny could enter their ships and view their individual designs. Apparently, many other players share this opinion, celebrating the ideas and concepts of the Guardian. His work is “great”, “impressive”, and “brilliant”.
However, one critique is often mentioned: His interior design is far too spacious – which the user admits himself. He says he will need to create concepts for larger ships that fit his spatial ideas. We are curious!
Daewoo Securities regularly publishes assessments and reports on Korean companies. For us MMO players, their assessments on “NCSoft” are particularly interesting. NCSoft is a Korean MMO giant that we in the West also have on our radar. Games like Guild Wars 2, Blade and Soul, WildStar, or Aion belong to them.
Daewoo believes that NCSoft generated revenue with Blade and Soul in Q1 2016, in addition to the perennial favorite Lineage I. They mention “Blade and Soul US” with new revenues of 17 million US dollars.
Blade and Soul is expected to have made about twice as much worldwide in Q1 2016 as the somewhat struggling Guild Wars 2. The two titles were fairly even in 2015, with advantages for B&S. According to Daewoo Securities, Blade & Soul is now lagging significantly behind Guild Wars 2. With the Western launch, the gap continues to widen.
For the long-term forecast by Daewoo Securities, important is: Lineage Eternal. However, there is still little to report about the new supposed jewel in NCSoft’s repertoire, as it is all still in beta stage.
In Q3 and Q4, the release of three titles each is expected. These are mainly mobile offshoots of the popular franchises Blade and Soul and Lineage in Korea, Japan, and Taiwan. Overall, NCSoft is given a good rating. Not only are existing titles growing, but the publisher also has high financial reserves and real estate, valuable office buildings in Seoul.
Source: Daewoo
For the end of 2016, the Hero Brawler r and PC title “Master X Master” is planned. It is also expected to be released in Europe. Daewoo anticipates a success that should make the title roughly as revenue-generating as GW2.

What will the Void Trader delight us with this weekend in Warframe? Will it be worth it? What will it cost? Where in the universe of Warframe will he appear and how many words starting with W can you expect in this news? We will see!
The Traveler from the Void
By now, new space ninjas and Warframe veterans should know the little arrogant trader who only leaves his Void villa every two weeks to offer players his sometimes more, sometimes less interesting goods.
Equinox – two Warframes in one
But let’s not forget that he didn’t always belong to high society and can certainly show emotions beyond that of mere money. You can learn more about Baro Ki’Teer in the quest “Sands of Inaros”, which he has also been offering on consoles since early April. But let’s take a look at what he has in store this time.
The ‘When, Where, and What’ of the current offer
When can Baro be found?
From Friday, April 22, 2016, 7 PM to Sunday, April 24, 2016, 7 PM.
Where can he be found?
PC: Orcus Relay, Pluto
PS4: Kronia Relay, Saturn
Xbox One: Vesper Relay, Venus
What does he have?
The offer for PS4 and Xbox One looks as follows:
Console players who missed the event “False Profit” and thus the Impact Mod set will have the chance to acquire them now.
These mods give you up to 120% more impact damage. This is only worthwhile, as always, for certain weapons, but if you install Collision Force on the dual-handed sword “War”, it becomes an even more powerful beast than it already is.
Excalibur faces a horde of Sentients
However, whether you should definitely acquire the Mara Detron for your arsenal is a matter of debate. This secondary shotgun does have a base radiation damage of 105, but lacks primary damage (impact, puncture, slash). Thus, you should know exactly which enemy type is more vulnerable to radiation and in which mission you better stick to other toys.
PC Offer
Whether PC ninjas can expect something interesting during a Baro visit can be seen in the following overview.
The melee weapon Prisma Skana can be acquired again. While it is not a high-end weapon, the Prisma version of the Skana has a significantly higher critical hit chance, higher critical hit damage, and is also quicker to handle. However, whether new players can afford 510 ducats for it is doubtful. Therefore, it is more of a collector’s item for Warframe veterans and those who want to become one.
The Skana, one of the first swords for new players, in the Prisma version
Otherwise, two previously exclusive event mods Ruck and Shock Cushion are for sale, which can also be earned on the planet Eris. Of course, one is dependent on the great loot god, who always disadvantages you, as we all know. Therefore, this offer presents an alternative for players who may not be advanced enough in the star chart to pay Eris a visit.
And of course, the obligatory Baro merchandise cannot be missed this time. Those who simply can’t get enough of the little tin can and his look now have the opportunity to pierce their enemies with a Baro Ki’Teer arrow skin.

Tree of Savior is postponing its Free2Play release. They want to first address the issues with some botters and exploiters.
Free2Play Release of Tree of Savior postponed to mid-May
Yesterday, we already reported that 3,000 accounts in Tree of Savior were banned for using bot programs or cheating through exploits to gain unfair advantages. Fixing this issue led to a whole chain of consequences, as the purchase price for the game was raised again. Now, another issue has emerged: the Free2Play release is delayed from the end of April to mid-May.
The problem was that the different packages of Tree of Savior were offered at different prices in various regions of the world, as Steam sets prices regionally. While in one country you might have paid around $50, in another country you only had to pay half. The TP, the premium currency acquired through purchase, could then be exchanged for nice items in the game, which could be sold to other players – players who spent “more money” on such a package were clearly at a disadvantage.
To prevent such issues from occurring in the future, Tree of Savior plans to open more regional servers and ban the cross-regional trade of affected items. This is precisely why the release is also postponed, as it must first be programmed and tested.
However, there is a silver lining: After initially reducing the prices of founder packs by 30%, and then raising them back to the full amount, there is now a new reduction: A hefty 50% discount is available on the purchase of a corresponding founder pack.
In The Division, the vendors’ stock is being refreshed today. We will check what “Dark Xur”, the specialist equipment vendor, and the DZ weapon vendor have on April 23 on PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
On the night from Friday to Saturday, vendors in The Division will receive a shipment of fresh items. The blueprints will come with new price tags. Since the “Incursions” update, the Dark Zone weapon vendor has been offering exciting weapons for high DZ ranks, and we want to report on this high-level vendor as well.
This is what the Dark Zone specialties vendor has in stock on April 23
The offer from “Dark Xur” has not been very exciting in terms of variety since update 1.1. However, if you want to complete the “Nomad’s Way” gear set, a visit to him is unavoidable. You can find him in the safe room in DZ06. You need to be at least DZ rank 30 for his items and rank 50 for his blueprints. He requires DZ currency.
This is the offering of the specialist equipment vendor on April 23
This friendly vendor requires Phoenix Credits in exchange for his goods. He waits for your visit with only high-end items at the operations base in the tech wing. This week, he tempts with the highly sought-after marksman rifle SOCOM M1A (Talents: Malevolent, Dominant, Resolute). You can find an M1A with presumably more appealing talents here. But the other items are also tempting:
Weapons:
AUG A3 Para XS (Submachine Gun): 814 PCs – Value 204 (Talents: Brutal, Malevolent, Meticulous)
Additionally, there are two high-end armor vests, a backpack, and revolver gloves available for purchase. The Jacket – Sand Color (320) and the Ranger Jacket (318) are unavailable from the selection.
Blueprints of the specialist equipment vendor:
The blueprints for the individual gear set pieces remain the same, only the prices change a bit. All have a value of 214:
“Authority of the Tactician” Knee Pads 331 PCs
“Call of the Guardian” Mask 390 PCs
Striker’s Mask 389 PCs
Striker’s Knee Pads 335 PCs
“Call of the Guardian” Knee Pads 337 PCs
“Authority of the Tactician” Mask 385 PCs
Furthermore, many high-end blueprints are available, all with a value of 182, which require mods at level 30 to acquire. Here are the prices for the weapon blueprints:
RPK-74 M – Military Version (Light Machine Gun) 152 PCs
M9 A1 – Officer Version (Pistol) 125 PCs
M44 – Custom Made (Marksman Rifle) 167 PCs
Vector 45 ACP (Submachine Gun) 152 PCs
M249 Para – Tactical (Light Machine Gun) 153 PCs
SA-58 – Military Version (Assault Rifle) 179 PCs
Px4 Storm Type T (Pistol) 126 PCs
Navy MP-5 N (Submachine Gun) 153 PCs
Sawed-off Double-barrel Shotgun 169 PCs
Offer of the Dark Zone weapon vendor on April 23
You can find the Dark Zone weapon vendor in the safe room in DZ03. He has weapons and blueprints that you can acquire from various DZ ranks for DZ currency. The offer of blueprints also changes, at least partially, every week.
Ark Survival Evolved is playable on PC and Xbox One in an Early Access. Players on PlayStation 4 should jump in this summer. The official release of the game was planned for this period.
However, the schedule cannot be maintained. The release of Ark Survival Evolved is now expected to occur during the Christmas season of 2016, during the “Holidays.” This is reported by the US site Gamespot.

The studio Wildcard cites the reason that the dimensions of Ark are now much larger than initially thought. Instead of 70, there are now over 100 dinos, modding support has been added, and much more.
There is a glimmer of hope for players on PlayStation 4: The “Free2Play spinoff” Survival of the Fittest, an eSports arena version of Ark, is also expected to be released on PlayStation 4 this summer. This is a kind of “death-match” version that is played for free. The combatants compete for high prize money.

In Tree of Savior, nearly 3,000 accounts were banned – even before the game’s release.
Almost 1400 bots and 1600 exploiters banned
Tree of Savior is currently in Early Access on Steam, but the operator IMC Games is already taking strong action against cheaters. 1,394 bot users can say goodbye to their accounts – they have been permanently banned. The same fate befell 1,678 players who exploited and manipulated the game’s client to gain unfair advantages.
As part of this step, the purchase of one of the founder packs has been blocked – and the price for the other founder packs has been “reset,” meaning it has been raised back to its normal value. Previously, the price had been lowered by 30% to compensate for the reduced time left in Early Access.
Botting – 3,000 players will no longer play Tree of Savior.
Interesting to note: In Tree of Savior, the reports of all players are not equally valued. The game calculates a “Report Influence Index” (RII) for each player. This value is determined by how “influential” a player is – but what exactly it consists of is not known. The higher this value, the “more important” the report from this player is, and, according to the developers, the more likely it is that the report is justified.
For instance, a player with an RII of 10 has a report that is worth the same as that of 10 players, each with an RII of 1. However, the final decision on a sanction is examined individually on a case-by-case basis – this system only determines which cases will be addressed first.

In the MMO shooter Destiny the Trials of Osiris are taking place again this weekend. It starts on Friday, April 22.
The Trials of Osiris are the weekly PvP event in Destiny. The monthly event is the Iron Banner, which starts next Tuesday. Osiris begins on Friday, April 22, at 7:00 PM. It runs until Tuesday at 11.
Today, the Trials of Osiris is celebrating Earth Day with a rotation of maps set on Earth. So, instead of the usual single map, there will be several. According to Guardians, the maps include Frontier, Exodus Blue, The Rustlands, Bannerfall, Widow’s Court, Twilight Gap, and Memento.

Players compete in teams of 3 in Best-of-9 matches. The first to win 5 rounds wins the game. The mode is “Elimination”; the goal is to defeat all 3 opponents at the same time – this makes reviving your teammates and preventing your opponents’ revives so important.
The goal is to have 9 victories on your card, the passage, before recording a loss. Then the card is “flawless” and you receive special rewards on Mercury. If you have 3 losses on the card, you are eliminated and have to “buy back in,” starting over with a new passage.
Most rewards come from bounties, which you can collect from Brother Vance. With 5 and 7 victories, you will also receive a randomly determined weapon (7) and an armor piece (at 5 victories). Before the April update, the rewards for 5 and 7 victories were always fixed, now they are determined randomly.
Good luck out there, Guardians. And remember to recycle your ammunition. After all, it’s Earth Day. This is especially important for Guardians since they are recycled themselves.

In Black Desert, there is a first look at the Awakening weapons of Musa and Berserker. We have images and a video for you.
The Musa receives a Burning Halberd
While in the West, the two classes Musa and Maewha have just been released, the Asian region is already much further ahead. There, the Musa, better known as Blader, will soon receive his Awakening weapon. These weapons are being gradually implemented for all classes and significantly change the gameplay experience of the respective character, as they receive new abilities, strengths, and weaknesses. You can see what the Burning Halberd, the Awakening weapon of the Musa, looks like in action in this trailer.

When looking towards Japan, they are also a bit further ahead. There, Black Desert is celebrating its first birthday under the local publisher Game On. They are already offering a small glimpse into the future of the game, as the Awakening weapon of the Berserker has been shown in some screenshots. The big guy receives a hand cannon that allows him to deal significant damage to enemies at medium range. In Korea, they introduced the “Iron Man” at the end of 2015.
Also in Japan, the appearance of the Maewha is being slightly adjusted – it is now supposed to look a bit more feminine than before. Cuteness holds a high value in Japan, even though the changes are not that drastic.
In The Division, the named NPCs have received new loot tables since the April update. We will look at which items you get from which boss.
Update 1.1 has significantly shaken up the loot system of The Division. Now you receive a guaranteed high-end drop for every kill of a notable enemy over level 30. This aims to shift the focus of agents from crafting more towards eliminating enemies to obtain powerful items in the game.
As part of these changes, the developers also shook up the loot tables of these “named NPCs”, so that they drop certain items with assigned probabilities. This allows agents to explore the characteristics of the enemies and thus focus on specific objects.
High-End Loot Table of The Division
To facilitate your exploration, we present the loot table in an overview below. In this table, you will find only those items that the notable NPCs have dropped most frequently so far.
Note: These data were compiled by reddit user Shadrail based on over 1000 player reports.
Oops, unfortunately this table is no longer available.
Meanwhile, data mining has also been diligently conducted to uncover the secrets of the loot tables. Several clues have emerged, which the reddit user Ced23Ric has compiled. According to this, the files allow the following conclusions:
Apparently, the MTW in “Falcon Lost” can drop holsters, backpacks, and vests for all gear sets except “Path of the Nomad”.
The Midas has a 5% chance to drop from named enemies in the Dark Zone, and the Caduceus drops from named NPCs outside the Dark Zone with a probability of 5%.
From the supply drops in the Dark Zone, gloves of the “Call of the Watch”, “Authority of the Tactician”, and “Assault Equipment of the Striker” gear sets can be obtained, as well as several pieces of the Nomad gear.
According to the interpretation of the reddit user, there is also info on “scavenging” in The Division: The main effect of this value is to increase the chance of better loot from unnamed enemies only. Scavenging has no effect on drops from named NPCs or mission rewards.
But all this is not officially confirmed and should therefore be taken with caution.
The new map has the friendly code name “Z2”, which sounds to us like something BMW puts on the road. Actually, the new map is intended for the arena mode “King of the Kill”, but it will also be used in “Just Survive”, the MMO part. Recently, H1Z1 has made a split: “King of the Kill” is set to be released soon, and it will also come to consoles. Just Survive will remain in Early Access for now.
The new map is the “most resource-intensive” project currently in development. The largest of the teams has been working on it for several months. Every part of the 64 square kilometers is set to be populated with brand-new assets like trees, grass, rocks, houses, and more.
No exact date for when Z2 will truly come into the game has been given yet, but it is planned to be “sooner rather than later”. H1Z1 will remain true to its “Early Access” tradition and will release the map even if it’s not complete, so players can see in real-time how the developers finish it.
Probably, it will first be brought to King of the Kill and then later to Just Survive. All this information was found in the latest producer letter from H1Z1.
H1Z1 had fantasized about a huge map back in 2014, which would grow larger and eventually cover the area of the USA. Later, they put such plans on hold, wanting to focus more on fine-tuning. Compared to the almost grandiose plans H1Z1 previously pursued and announced, the ideas today all sound significantly more modest and humble.

Let It Die seemingly takes us into a dark world inhabited by grim reapers on skateboards and many other dubious characters. Blood and violence are not held back. Although little can be inferred from the trailer about how the game will play and what it is about, the video seems to confirm the developers’ statement that it will be a “crazy survival action game”.
Let It Die will be free-to-play.
