The sandbox game “The Valley” has significantly increased its funding.
As the developers Fairytale Distillery explain, they now have a significantly higher budget for their hardcore sandbox title “The Valley.” The FilmFernsehFonds Bayern has increased its initial investment from 100,000€ to 180,000€. A so-called “angel investor” has also doubled their investment. This money and the studio’s own funds help “The Valley” exceed 300,000€.
As the Managing Director Alexander Zacherl says after thanking those involved: “We still have a lot to do – I need to get back to work now.”
The Valley has been on the minds of the creators since 2004, since the cancellation of Shadowbane. Full-time work on the sandbox game has been ongoing since 2012.

Epic Games, which develops the online action game Paragon, has announced the opening of a new office in Berlin.
With the new office, the developer studio aims to further expand its global reach and provide better support for players in Russia and Europe.
Players from Europe are to be better supported
“The best way to be there for our players is to be present on-site,” says Epic Games President Paul Meegan. “Our European and Russian community is very important to us, and opening our office in Berlin is the first step to ensure that players have fun with our games from day one.”
Responsible for the new Epic Games office in Berlin are Paw Larsen, Director of Publishing for Western Europe, and Sergey Galyonkin, Director of Publishing for Eastern Europe. Both intend to leverage their experiences gained at Riot Games and Wargaming.net to initially bring Paragon closer to players in Europe and Russia, and also to support other upcoming games from Epic Games.
Epic Games is still looking for new employees
By the way, employees are still being sought for the office in Berlin. This includes positions in marketing and communication, community and player support. Those interested in working for Epic Games can check the official website for job descriptions. Perhaps you will then be responsible for customer support of Paragon for European players!
With the opening of the office in Berlin, community management and support for European players of Epic Games’ games should be able to be elevated to a higher level.

In Destiny, the April update is now available. According to Community Manager DeeJ, this update is a testament to the evolution that Bungie’s live team has undergone in recent months.
Looking back at Year 1 of Destiny, a lot has changed regarding updates and fresh content. For the DLCs “The Dark Below” and “House of Wolves,” players had to reach deep into their pockets if they wanted to play the new content.
This changed significantly with the “The Taken King” expansion: Since September, we have been served fresh content for free.
This content has thus far been offered in time-limited “events,” such as the Sparrow Racing or the Scharlach Week, for which no additional money needed to be spent. Now Bungie’s live team has released the free April update. The way Destiny has developed was not foreseeable back in Autumn 2014.
Changes at Bungie as “Natural Evolution”
Destiny continues to evolve, just like the team behind the MMO shooter. Community Manager DeeJ comments on these changes in an interview with vg247. According to him, regarding the current April update from the live team, it is about a “natural evolution”:
The April update is an opportunity for the live team to do what they do. It is essentially an extension of their mission, which is to continuously entertain Destiny players between major releases.
DeeJ emphasizes that it is the live team’s job to keep the daily happenings in Destiny lively and interesting. The April update now represents a change in the scope of their efforts, but no change in what they do.
This is how the live team was presented in December:

In Year 1, this team particularly focused on fixing bugs and improving the player experience of the Guardians. This year, the live team is advancing in their capabilities, creating and programming events, and providing more variety in the Destiny universe. While these events are content that comes and goes, the April update is content that can and should be played repeatedly.
The Challenge of the Elders, the new strike, or the revamped “Winter’s Run” strike are activities that will not randomly disappear from the scene; they will remain (for now) permanent.
Live Team Ensures a Dynamic Game World
As the community manager reveals, the live team now not only supports current gameplay, but also advances it and provides players with new things to do. That is what the live team is here for: not just to improve things that are already in the game but also to create new things. DeeJ on this:
We are fulfilling the promise that Destiny is a world that evolves over time.
Furthermore, the community manager states:
We have always wanted to design a game that is dynamic, that evolves the way players play it. The live team is the key instrument to achieve this goal.
Thus, the task of the live team is to keep the game fresh, to fix emerging bugs as quickly as possible, and to address various community needs. Meaningful changes can be made every two to three weeks, every two to three months, that improve the player experience.
Early in the history of the MMO shooter, Bungie admitted that players would spend much more time in the game than they could anticipate. Although this is more a category of “luxury problem,” it remains a problem that cannot be easily solved.
The expanded tasks of the live team are Bungie’s push to deliver to players what they really want. This also includes balance adjustments in the crucible.
Balance Adjustments Consider PvP and PvE
The sandbox rebalance of the April update will disrupt the crucible. As DeeJ states, the goal is to design a competitive ecosystem that caters to as many types of players as possible. Every type should feel welcome in the crucible. Therefore, updates and changes will occur here more frequently. DeeJ:
As soon as we notice that there is only one logical choice in the crucible if you want to win, that’s definitely something we’ll pursue.
An example can be given with the legendary sniper rifle Empty Look, which is a very commonly used special weapon in the crucible.
When one sees that a weapon is the only choice for many guardians, the intent is not to ruin it – after all, it is very popular for certain reasons – but to give players reasons to try out other weapons, according to community manager DeeJ.
Bungie studies player data in both PvE and PvP before changes are made. This will not change in the future. They want guardians who have certain “favorite weapons” to be able to use them in both PvE and PvP. Once accustomed to a weapon, it should feel familiar everywhere. DeeJ on this:
This weapon has no surprises for you. It works against a raid boss the same way it works against a thinking, breathing person you encounter through matchmaking.

In Blade & Soul, the first PvP season starts today. They also give a small insight into patch 2.1 …
Today, on April 13, 2016, the first official PvP season of Blade & Soul starts for us in the West. The preliminary skirmishes are now a thing of the past, and players can finally compete for seasonal rewards and prove who among them has the greatest skill (or the best internet connection). In addition to the rewards at the end of the season, there will also be smaller recognitions at the end of each week to honor performances. Those particularly talented can also participate in the official NCSoft community tournaments that will be introduced in the coming weeks.
“Realm in Ruins” starts in 2 weeks
On the official website of the game, there is already a first glimpse of update 2.1. The small expansion named “Realm in Ruins” will be released on April 27 and expand the game world with two new heroic dungeons: the Cold Storage and the Lonely Bastion. The Bastion is said to be particularly challenging. According to the developers, it is the “most challenging challenge for player groups” that can be found in Blade & Soul.
But solo players will also get their money’s worth, as the Tower of Mushin will be expanded once again. On 7 new floors (levels 9-15), you can face particularly difficult enemies alone and surely pilfer one or the other treasure from them.
In the Tower of Mushin, things will continue soon. 7 new floors await.
Finally, PvP fans can look forward to a new battlefield. In the Windswept Valley, 12 players can compete in teams of 6, but they must fulfill specific objectives and not just beat each other up.
In the coming days, they will reveal more details about the contents of patch 2.1 “Realm in Ruins”.

In the MMO shooter, weapon master Banshee-44 has new weapons available. Additionally, today is “Lost in the Light,” the daily quest, so it’s a Black Spindle day.
Banshee-44 appears to be quite unimpressed by yesterday’s update. We report on his offerings.
A hand cannon from Häkke is meant to be used against Cabal.
A fusion rifle from Omolon targets Vex Minotaurs.
The pulse rifle from Suros hunts Scorn targets.
Suros also provides a rocket launcher eager for “higher-tier enemies.”
A sniper rifle from Omolon aims to take down Fallen Captains.
Will Guardians soon be ignited in passionate new love for the cool lady? 3% is 3%!
After the patch: These 5 weapons can be ordered this week
First up is the auto rifle Häkke Zarinea-D. A solid, but not outstanding choice; as a “mid-tier auto rifle,” it remains unaffected by the patch changes.
The scout rifle Suros Dis-43 is available this week. It’s also a weapon in the mid-range; it’s not bad, but not a super weapon either. The Dis-43 has a very high range among scout rifles.
The scout rifle Tuonela SR4 has values quite similar to the Dis-43. However, it has significantly increased stability, although a smaller magazine and less range. It’s a very popular weapon among Guardians.
The pulse rifle Lyudmila-D as a “slow pulse rifle” received a 3% base damage boost. It might be an alternative in the Crucible again.
The sniper rifle Aiofe Rua-D is also new. Due to changes in the revival mechanics, it’s possible that sniper rifles with medium impact could also gain traction now. Time will tell. The Aiofe with 22 impact should now also be a so-called “revive sniper.” Previously, PvP pros rarely considered sniper rifles like Eirene or Null Perspective for that slot.
Which weapons can be picked up this week?
An Arminius-D (freshly generated) comes with crowd control, target acquisition, and small caliber rifle. For those who like such things.
A Suros Dis-47 can be obtained with outlaw, perfect balance, and reinforced barrel.
A Suros PDX-41 is available with hammer forged, unyielding, and rifled barrel. Another roll brings: target acquisition, adjusted stock, and reinforced barrel.
4 out of 5 weapons from last week Zarinea-D, Kumakatok HC4, Suros PDX-41, Tamar-D, can be seen here. Only the rocket launcher is missing, but … oh well.

I wish you all a healing Wednesday. Why healing? Quite simply, that’s my topic today. I’m sure I’ve already gotten worked up about this in the past (or multiple times), but recent events keep bringing this topic to the surface. For the grand finale of the closed beta of Overwatch, I’m complaining once again about my dear teammates. No, I’m actually doing a disservice to a large number of people – I mean a very special group.
Hail, you pig!
“Cortyn, pick heal or leave!!!!” is not exactly the friendly request that can make me play a healer in Overwatch. Don’t get me wrong, I really enjoy healing. I like Mercy, Lucio, or Zenyatta and enjoy playing them if the team needs it or if I’m asked nicely.
If the only tank of the group asks me if I can support him with healing – no problem, gladly! But when I hear the 3rd sniper in the team scream that I should please play a healer, I have the urgent desire to insert my keyboard orally and sideways so that my account cannot be banned for massive insults. Fortunately, I usually swallow that down. Along with the cable.
Perhaps it’s just selective perception, but it feels like it’s always exactly these people who are screaming, who are playing something that is not beneficial to the victory at all. Hey, are we on the attacking side? Better bring along the 3rd sniper so we can really defend our spawn area safely!
I suspect that this plague has simply been transferred from League of Legends, SMITE and all the other MOBAs to Overwatch as well. In the spirit of: Whoever logs in first gets to play what they want. Completely disregarding what the rest of the players would like – first come, first served!
How do you see the whole thing? Do you give in to such whiners and demanders and switch to a healer? Or do you stand firm, even if it could diminish the success of the group? And above all: Do you actually enjoy playing healers?

Today, the daily mission in the Challenge Mode is missing, it is not displayed on the map. However, the dailies on “Hard” are available.
Via Twitter, the developers have already commented that they are aware of the issue. However, they are not able to solve the problem today. They assure that the Challenge Mode will return tomorrow.

Going splashing and being able to sleep more? In ArcheAge this is now available to anyone willing to reach deep into their pockets.
Double Work Points thanks to Bathing Fun
Anyone looking to spend real money in the MMORPG ArcheAge in the coming days will receive some nice bonuses that will trigger a Pay2Win outcry. Anyone who invests a solid 100€ in a credit pack between April 8 and April 19 will receive a special decorative item in addition to the credits, which can be placed in the house by a character. The heated pool can accommodate up to 4 players who can relax and unwind in it.
The catch: For the homeowner, using the pool will grant the “Clear Mind” debuff once a day, allowing them to sleep 2 times a day. This means that they can generate twice as many work points through sleeping as other players who do not have access to the hot pool. “Guests” cannot benefit from this advantage; it is only active for the property owner – so it’s not enough to know a rich friend and sneak into their bathtub with dubious promises.
While some may be annoyed by this, ArcheAge veterans say: Who still sleeps for work points? That’s what Twinks are for.
As a little cherry on top, there are also 2 plant decorations that thematically fit perfectly with the hot tub – but looking at the functionality of the bathing pleasure, the plants immediately fade into the background.
In the cheaper package for 50€, there’s also a small bonus, but this is significantly less impactful. With the purchase of such a package, 100 loyalty tokens are added, which can be freely used to purchase various bonuses.

In the MMO shooter Destiny a new Strike called Fauliger Kelch was released yesterday. We will show it to you.
Actually, the S.A.B.E.R. Strike was the Nightfall Strike in Destiny yesterday. But that changed with the patch in the evening, as they elevated the new Strike “Fauliger Kelch”, the Malok Strike, to Nightfall status.
Modifiers are:
Voidburn – Void damage is significantly increased.
Berserker – Enemies do not flinch.
Specialist – Special weapon damage is preferred.
Juggler – Defeated enemies do not drop ammunition for the weapon currently wielded by the Guardian.
The modifiers apply for this week now. If Fauliger Kelch is the Nightfall Strike next time, it could be something completely different.
We will show you how 3 experienced Guardians tackle the new Strike “Fauliger Kelch” in Destiny. Our friend Nexxoss has created a video guide:

In the MMO shooter The Division, Ubisoft released a hotfix yesterday.
We reported yesterday that in The Division a yellow fever has broken out. Some named enemies dropped four high-end items upon their defeat. That was definitely too much. We suspected yesterday that it wouldn’t stay that way.
And indeed, a hotfix for The Division came after midnight yesterday:
Now, the named enemies in challenge mode will only guarantee one high-end item.
Additionally, they adjusted the APC (Armored Personnel Carrier) in the new operations. The armored vehicle was likely buggy; it should no longer take damage from player weapons and its mortar should fire correctly.
This means the operation may have gained significantly in difficulty.
However, the hotfix could not solve one problem: Some players simply cannot find their agents. They disappeared with update 1.1. This is a complicated issue that Ubisoft is working on. It is said that further investigations are necessary.

Blizzard invites players one last time to the closed beta of Overwatch . We have the date and more details.
This weekend marks the start of the last Overwatch Beta weekend
The development of Overwatch is nearing completion, as it will only be a few weeks until Blizzard’s hero shooter is released. To put the servers through one last intensive stress test, Blizzard invites a large number of players one last time before the shooter leaves the closed beta.
By the evening of Thursday, April 14, 2016, all accounts that were chosen for the beta should have been “flagged.” You can check this in several ways. Either you visit the account management of Battle.net or simply check the Battle.net launcher, as there should be an “Install” button available for “Overwatch” as soon as you are selected. Alternatively, emails will be sent to all participants, but these may sometimes “arrive delayed”, which is why checking the launcher provides quicker certainty.
From Friday evening until Saturday night (April 15 and 16), all testers can then try most of Overwatch’s game content. All 21 heroes are available, as well as all maps and the progression system. However, one will have to forgo ranked mode and the weekly “Brawls.”
This time, “more players than ever before” are to be invited to the beta. Who hasn’t had the chance yet could finally get to enjoy the game now!
Blizzard especially seeks feedback regarding the servers, as they want to push the technology “to its limits” to see how much the servers can take and at what load they will crash. At the same time, they want to know how smoothly the game runs for individual players. To this end, all beta participants will also have access to the relevant forums for the duration of the weekend.

In an MMORPG, one wants to sell found and crafted items quickly and profitably. This is made possible by the MMO Project Gorgon through sales stands.
Every hero always carries a lot of items with them, just like every craftsman. What you don’t need yourself, you naturally want to sell. However, going around selling everywhere is not an effective method. The MMORPG Project Gorgon offers an interesting possibility.
Rent market stalls
Every player can have a sales stand and sell their goods either themselves or through a hired NPC. You rent the stand, hire the NPC, and put the goods up for sale that you want to offer. With the NPC seller, you can even offer the items around the clock. It’s up to you how you want to decorate your stand. The more eye-catching, the more potential customers you attract.
You can also retrieve detailed information on every sale. This way, you can see who bought which items and in what quantity. Players can also reserve items. These are then only visible to them and cannot be bought by others. To rent a market stall, you need to train your hero in the skill “Retail Management”. Stands can always be rented for 30 days, after which the rental price increases.
The return to the classics
The MMORPG Project Gorgon aims to provide a classic gaming experience, drawing inspiration from Everquest. You can do whatever you want in the sandbox world. If you don’t want to be a craftsman or trader, you are free to explore the world and fight monsters there. PvP is possible in certain zones, but it does not represent the focus of the RPG. Currently, Project Gorgon is still in an Alpha phase, which everyone can participate in.

Revelation will be released in German
Revelation is the first MMORPG from NetEase that will be published on the western market. This is expected to happen as quickly as possible, which is why localization is now being accelerated. In addition, there are already plans to launch the game in even more regions and languages.

Meanwhile in China, the launch of the Open Beta is approaching, scheduled for April 22. This phase will bring Cross-Realm PvP and a setting for maximum graphical excellence. Additionally, they will introduce the epic raid dungeon “Dragon’s Abyss.” This is divided into six sectors where you must face ten boss enemies. The developers indicate that a new guild should take about two to three months to master this raid.
An epic raid
The raid is available in three difficulty levels. The easiest can be completed from level 59, which is expected to be achievable in about two to three weeks. In the harder difficulty levels, better items can be found. However, the best gear in the game can only be crafted. The developers state that they spent about two years designing, developing, and finding the right balance for “Dragon’s Abyss.”

As it looks, there will be no maintenance work; the servers should not go down, but the patch will simply be downloaded.

We summarize the key information that we did not have before at a glance:
In the weekly Nightfall Strike, items with 330 Light can now drop.(The recommended light level also increases to 320).
Additionally, in the King’s Fall Raid, the drop chances for weapons and armor have been increased – this applies to both the normal and heroic version.
10 weapons of the Queen will return to the Prison of Elders. You will be able to obtain 5 Fallen weapons as reputation rewards from Variks. It is likely that you will be able to apply Chroma to these 15 weapons.
Also important: The Light increase in the Raid of Destiny has made it into the patch. This likely refers to the 335 Light in hard mode. As Bungie reports via community manager Cozmo: You can now raid without concerns. No one has to wait for a hotfix as originally announced.
Two new classes will be added in April to Black Desert. We will tell you when Musa and Maehwa are taking off with us!
Musa and Maehwa – 2 genders of the same profession
Black Desert continues to make significant efforts to bring the content from Korea to the West as quickly as possible. On April 20, the next step in this direction will be taken, as 2 more classes will be added: Musa and Maehwa will make their appearance.
The Musa is a nimble melee fighter capable of unleashing quick, deadly combinations. However, a wrong step can quickly lead to one’s demise, as the defensive values of this class are virtually non-existent. The melee fighter especially excels in battles against multiple enemies, as numerous attacks cause high area damage.
The Maehwa is the female counterpart to the Musa. While most abilities are similar, the Maehwa has a significantly stronger focus on single targets and can even briefly stun them to transition into a final attack.
In addition to strong melee attacks, both classes, previously known as Blader and Plum, can also rely on their short bows and have some abilities in their repertoire that allow them to cause havoc over greater distances – or at least prepare for the next melee attack.
For more news and articles about the game, you can find them on our Black Desert theme page.
Update 1.1 of The Division has been live for several hours. Changes have also been made to the loot system: Named enemies are now supposed to drop guaranteed high-end items. They are doing so now, but with unprecedented generosity.
Named enemies drop up to four high-end items
Reports are already piling up on reddit that the named Challenge bosses leave up to four high-end items once defeated. “Proof images” did not take long to appear, such as the following:
A reddit user is already keeping a list of reports regarding high-end drops from named Challenge bosses. So far, all reports unanimously state that four high-end items await you at the Lexington Event Center as a reward.
However, the official Division website states that the named enemies would only drop one guaranteed high-end item. Massive has not yet commented on this high-end downpour.

The good and the bad are often closely connected. In a producer letter, the head of H1Z1 addressed the fans of the shooter part “King of the Kill.” Essentially, it can be summarized as “Guys, we have problems.”
Recently, the team announced that they would spend more time polishing and testing the content: The patches are full of bugs, and there is dissatisfaction. Some of the issues are now so severe that it would take too long to find a proper solution, so they are pulling the plug and disabling the features:
Cars are flying through the air, and they have temporarily disabled them in the Box of Destiny. The Box of Destiny is the lobby for Battle Royale games.
The fog is too foggy, so they’ve turned it off completely.
The weapons are not working as planned, and the producer assures that they need to address this.
On the other hand, players in H1Z1’s sandbox have designed their own “Autodrome.” Over more than 500 hours of gameplay, they’ve built this, which is damn impressive and closely resembles the vision of the game from 2014.
