In Canada, you can live on streets named after Silvermoon, Stormwind, and other cities from World of Warcraft – cool or just a bit too crazy?
On Silvermoon Crescent of Ashenvale
Who doesn’t dream of adding a bit more nerdiness to their life? It starts with securing a license plate for your car with the numbers “1337” and can end with the name of a street. Because who wouldn’t prefer to live on “Silvermoon Crescent” or “Ashenvale Way” instead of “Berliner Straße”? That’s probably what someone in Canada thought as they let their love for Azeroth flow into the real world …
In Canada, the companies responsible for designing the suburbs can also name the streets. One person in charge was clearly a fan of the Warcraft universe, because those who live in this neighborhood of Ottawa have a good chance of getting into the corresponding streets. Here are some names that immediately catch the eye.
Silvermoon Crescent
Ashenvale Way
Stormwind Ave
Winterspring Ridge
Lakeridge Dr
Too many to be a coincidence – what do you think of these street names? Cool or just a bit too crazy?

Behind the scenes, dramas are unfolding in the Free2Play MMORPG Rift . The world’s strongest guild Apotheosys has concluded their time with Rift – and they are leaving no good words for the operator Trion Worlds.
The advice “Say goodbye quietly” is not taken to heart by Apotheosys. The guild is ending their successful run in Rift (with 35 World Firsts) at the new year with flames, insults, and nasty videos. The short version: “Rift is great, we love the game, but Trion Worlds is the worst.”
In a long video, they showcase the game’s weaknesses and the unfavorable direction in which Rift is heading. The raids are buggy, leveling through changes to the systems has become impossible, and PvP is dead.
Negative words are clearly found for Trion Worlds – they are described as “greedy, childish, rude Nazis”.

After the video, the creator claims to have been banned within 7 hours despite the holiday. On reddit, they deleted his posts, and the local moderator apparently should consider a job at Trion Worlds.
They are really not pleased with Trion Worlds and they probably don’t like being called “Nazis” either.
Alongside these aggressive tones, they also laid out in a lengthy post (and still quite aggressively) all the “professional” issues they have with the game that it is not about providing good content, but has become a “Free2Play Money Grab”. And whoever openly addresses this is silenced by a dictatorial system. Rift is dead. They have lost all hope for improvement. No miracles will happen anymore. It will only get worse from now on.
Many from the guild have played Rift since 2011 and it makes them sad to leave, but the creators of the game left them no choice.
Thank you to our reader N0ma for the tip.

In the MMO shooter Destiny , the Exalted is a classic among exotic weapons. What can the fully automatic shotgun do in Year 2?
In Year 1, the Exalted was intermittently popular, but without a scope and Sardine can, it did not have the same impact on PvP as the feared Year 1 shotguns, foremost Fellwinter’s Lie. The most popular shotguns were impressive with high range. By now, these “sniper shotguns” have been removed. How strong is the Exalted now?
How to get the Exalted?
In the first year, the Exalted was available through an exotic bounty in Destiny. Thus, it is no longer available in Year 2. Players can pull it from their collections if they have a Year 1 variant. Or guardians receive the Exalted as a random reward in Year 2 activities (using Three of Coins increases the chance). Possible locations include the King’s Fall raid, the Nightfall strike, or PvP. This week, Xur is even selling it.

What makes the Exalted special in Destiny?
The Exalted is essentially the “ultimate, classic” shotgun, which blasts enemies at close range through a combination of relatively high fire rate and fully automatic capabilities, even when they are in their super. The weapon deals solar damage.
The key perks are:
Exalted – This weapon regenerates ammunition – a magazine of 4 shots every 30 seconds
Fully automatic – A double-edged sword, on one side, with 4 shots in the magazine, in a shooting frenzy, you can waste single shots, on the other, it increases the chance to quickly kill with follow-up shots in typical situations of “enemy right in front of me” – and if the enemy is dead a half second earlier, they will stop shooting back a half second earlier. Good deal!
Last Round – The last round of each magazine deals bonus precision damage
Sent – Increased range and precision, harder to handle. Decreased ammo carry capacity
Field Choke – Higher range and impact. Increased recoil.
The idea behind the weapon is to get as close to enemies as possible to then blow them away: Shotgun shells should fly through their minds, not silly ideas.
The thing deals proper damage with all perks, but has enormous recoil. Don’t engage in those “I’m packing this at mid-distance” experiments.

Shotguns are like real estate: It comes down to three things. Location, location, location. If you position the Exalted correctly, it’ll do the job (as the cool kids on the street say). But first, the weapon needs to be brought to that point – that’s your job. Shotguns are for players who enjoy a fast, dynamic playstyle and flank and overwhelm the enemy.
Is the weapon worth it in PvE and PvP?
In PvE, the Exalted can hardly be recommended. At least not for guardians who have a wide selection of weapons. In the top league, other weapons like Zhalo Supercell, Black Spindle, or the Sword.
The natural environment for the weapon is the Crucible. Here the Exalted has earned a reputation as a killer weapon. It’s not the best reputation because shotgun players aren’t particularly popular among their victims. But the weapon is effective, and you can have strong rounds if you know how to get close to the enemies.
Especially on “small maps,” like those found in the Trials of Osiris, the Exalted is a force. Those who appreciate this “Up close and personal” playstyle in the Crucible should definitely get it.
What do you think of the Exalted?

First, you need to select the new port Yokosuka and then complete 3 missions each. These can be done – more or less – alongside other activities and will reward you with the ships “Kongo” and “Myoko”. The prerequisite for all missions is that they can only be completed in random battles with ships in tiers 5 to 10.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxJXzPgCoe0
Quest series for Kongo:
Step 1: 30 ships of the “Cruiser” category must be sunk. Reward: 1,000,000 credits.
Step 3: Cause 1,000,000 damage (from all sources). Reward: Arpeggio of Blue Steel – ARS NOVA – Kongo.
Quest series for Myoko:
Step 1: 30 ships of the “Destroyer” category must be sunk. Reward: 25 Zulu signals, 25 Equal Speed Charlie London signals, and 25 Type 1 camouflage.
Step 2: Cause 300 fires. Reward: 25 Sierra Mike signals, 25 India Delta signals, and 25 Type 2 camouflage.
Step 3: Cause 1,000,000 damage points (from all sources). Reward: Arpeggio of Blue Steel – ARS NOVA – Myoko.
After completing these missions, the two ships will be available. However, they are just “skins” of existing ships, so they do not disturb the immersion of players who prefer a realistic atmosphere.
The anime series Arpeggio of Blue Steel: ARS NOVA also deals with many naval battles, although in a significantly more futuristic setting than the rather realistic World of Warships. In the series, the great nations of the world were quickly overrun by a mysterious fleet that has since controlled all the seas. The internet lines of the seas were cut, and the exchange of goods came to a complete standstill.
Looks quite cute – the ship’s AI Iona, however, has a few tricks up her sleeve.
Every country is working on its own methods to smuggle goods and secretly develop a weapon that can eliminate the overwhelming “Fog Fleet”, when a stroke of luck turns the tide: One of the ships goes aground because the ship’s AI, in the form of the girl Iona, is programmed to serve the hero of the series – at least for now.

For some chosen ones, Hearthstone is more than just a game – it is a steady source of income. But what could be earned in tournaments in 2015?
With Luck and Skill to a Livelihood
Another year has passed, and with the increasing number of Hearthstone tournaments, the sum of the prizes awarded to the best players during these events is also rising. It is not surprising that for the most talented players, this is more than just a hobby, and many earn a living from it.
The colleagues from dailydot.com have compiled a list summarizing the prize amounts from numerous tournaments. This allows us to see which players have won how much money solely through the tournaments. Below we have listed the top 5 players by their prize amounts:
Firebat – 109,225$
DawN – 108,266$
Ostkaka – 107,900$
Lifecoach – 101,250$
Thijs Molendijk – 86,525$
The hunt for the big cash – Only the best cash in at the tournaments.
It is important to mention that the earnings came solely from tournaments. Any donations and winnings, for example from streaming platforms like Twitch, are not included in these figures. In total, more than 2,100,000 US dollars were awarded in winnings in 2015, which represents an increase of nearly 800,000 $. More than 99 events were included in these calculations, each offering a prize pool of at least $1,000.
It can be expected that Hearthstone as an eSport will also continue to grow significantly in the coming year, as more and more well-known eSport teams like Cloud9 and Archon are committing to the game or securing some celebrities to participate in the big tournaments.
On New Year’s Day, ARK: Survival Evolved receives a new patch. This introduces player alliances and two-seaters.
The Alliances of the Kangaroos
At Studio Wildcard, there’s no time to rest even during the holidays, as ARK: Survival Evolved received another update yesterday on the last day of 2015. Several features have been bundled into a patch to celebrate the new year.
The coolest new feature is a new wild creature that is closely related to the kangaroos we know. Like almost everything in ARK, they are much larger and, once tamed, can transport two players at once. One rides as usual in the saddle, while the other is tucked away in a pouch, traveling warm as a “passenger” across the island. With its strong legs, the Procoptodon, as the creature is called, is capable of jumping over high obstacles and can cover large distances in no time due to its speed. To see how it looks in the game, you should check it out yourself:

A frequently requested feature was the ability to join forces with other tribes. This option is now available, allowing smaller player groups to support one another and stand as “alliances” against larger groups. This should also allow tight-knit smaller groups to stand up against prevailing veterans. Furthermore, this enables new kinds of diplomacy and politics as alliances are negotiated and intrigues spun.
In the MMO shooter Destiny , the Trials of Osiris start on Friday evening, January 1, 2016, with the classic.
“The Burning Shrine” was the first map where Trials of Osiris took place. For the new year, Bungie chose this map to kick things off.
The Burning Shrine is considered “the ideal map” for the Trials of Osiris. It’s hard to argue with that. This event was originally designed for this map – it’s the one that started it all.
Our friend Nexxoss presented the Burning Shrine as an Osiris map in Year 1. We present you the video from the summer of 2015. If you needed more tips for the map, check out this article. The meta-game has changed a bit since then; currently, scout rifles and snipers are even more popular than before, but the general direction should be correct.

The Trials of Osiris themselves are 3v3 fights in Elimination mode: Once you’re dead, you can be revived by teammates, so it’s important to keep your comrades alive and prevent the enemies from getting their people back up. Because of this somewhat special play style, exotic armor pieces like the Mark of Alpha Lupi are popular.
Most loot comes from bounties, but there’s also a big reward for the flawless run on Mercury – primary weapons with an extra gimmick. If you want to succeed on Mercury, you should find a good team, work on communication and teamwork, and ideally unlock all bonuses on the passage card; then you don’t need a 9-0, a 7-1 will do. An important ingredient as well: luck with the lag!
The Trials of Osiris are active until Tuesday morning.
With 5 and 7 wins on the scoreboard, there are also fixed rewards in Destiny. We will provide those shortly:
The military MMO War Thunder (PC, PS4) welcomes the new year with a show of force that darkens the sky.
“Less is more is for the faint-hearted and the poor,” one might say at Gaijin. “More is more!”
In the new trailer for War Thunder, they show what they have. 250 ground vehicles, 450 aircraft can now be showcased and everything looks stylish, as seen in the trailer. When they are all lined up next to each other, it’s quite a spectacle. If you hang the aircraft next to each other in the air, they can even darken the sky.

The Korean action MMORPG Bless Online, ranked number 5 on our list of the most promising MMORPGs, is alive.
Last year we had a widely read article about the 5 most promising MMORPGs in 2015 and 2016. What happened to them? It has been quiet around Everquest Next, Skyforge is now in Open Beta and has effectively been released, Blade and Soul and Black Desert are coming to us soon – but what about the number 5, what about Bless?
After a mixed third Closed Beta test, they retreated to lick their wounds and continue working on the game. Now they say: On January 15, we will lay our cards on the table. We will tell you at a fair when the Open Beta begins, what additional features we plan, and how it looks.
They expect the start of the Open Beta in the first half of 2016.

What would an honest trailer for Star Wars: Battlefront look like? And what deficiencies would it reveal?
A Battlefield with a Star Wars Logo on It
A new video was released a few days ago on the Smosh Games YouTube channel. In the style of his other “Honest Trailer” clips, the narrator with the really cool voice pokes fun at Star Wars: Battlefront. While it’s all humorous, it often contains a lot of truth, as many of his criticisms also infuriate fans around the world.
Particularly bitter must be such statements: “From yet another developer devoured by the unstoppable monster Electronic Arts comes a series designed specifically to separate long-time nerds from their hard-earned money.”
But other criticisms are also tackled in the video. Many players complain that the graphics, setting, and gameplay feel perfect for a single-player campaign, which is simply lacking. The scarcity of content is also a thorn in many players’ sides, and they see the only long-term motivation in the progression system, which progresses extremely slowly.

“Step into the shoes of powerful Jedi and dark Sith Lords, whose battles feel like you’re pressing action figures against each other!”
But the battles themselves are too monotonous for many players. In some game modes, you would just spawn, run into a room to literally get slaughtered, spawn again, and hope to find a power-up along the way.
Last but not least, the DLC system is criticized, as just like in the Battlefield series, you have to purchase a rather expensive season pass for €50 to receive the next 4 content packs. Although the “Battle of Jakku” was free, many view it only as a small appetizer.

The German sandbox MMORPG Albion Online is saying goodbye to the Free2Play model.
In a forum post on Wednesday, Stefan Wiezorek, the founder of Albion Online, announced to the gathered fan community:
We will not be a Free2Play title
We will remain in closed beta until at least August 1st
They decided against a Free2Play model because they would then have to focus on the payment model to steer the game in that direction. The time that would be required for this would be better used to make Albion Online a better game. Additionally, there would be risks with a Free2Play model: bots, spammers, the world would be too small – they do not want to deal with all of that if they can avoid it.

When Albion Online goes live, they will offer starter packs instead of the current founder packs. These will provide slightly fewer benefits “per Euro” than the current packs. This is to reward the founders, who will naturally get full access to the game.
Despite Farmville aesthetics, Albion Online is something entirely different …
Understandable Decision
Mein MMO thinks: The Free2Play model has been losing attractiveness lately, also because the market is saturated and offers many alternatives, from off-the-shelf Free2Play MMOs from Asia to aging MMORPG classics or even new high-quality games from the top tier.
What is certainly understandable for anyone who has ever played a Free2Play MMO is the high developer effort required to make the game viable in that direction. It requires resources to be optimized so that the shift to the cash shop is worthwhile – then you need a few status symbols for real money, have to expand the world as a Free2Play title expects many more players and needs to accommodate them. Maybe put up a paygate here and there …
Indeed, all energy that does not really improve the core elements of a game, but only makes it broader. If another way can be found, it is a nice and sensible decision. With its unique graphics and concepts, Albion Online surely would not have become a “mass title” even with Free2Play.
With Albion Online, we at Mein-MMO.de have dealt with the following articles:
Update: In the evening of January 6th, a new teaser video from Riot Games was released, which apparently shows the new champion. In this article, we report on Mein-MMO.de:
A short time ago, changes on Zed’s champion page were seen, featuring an animated video of the champion. However, the teasers continued, as excerpts with the word “Deadeye” were also found in various game files. As mentioned earlier, this could be a hint at the champion, whose concept was presented years ago in the forum. However, it is also possible that these teasers do not intend to announce a new champion, but perhaps a series of new skins or an event.
On the Facebook page of League of Legends Thailand, an animated video of Sona titled “Deadeye” was also seen. During the analysis of the game files, Sona repeatedly appeared in connection with Deadeye.
The New Teaser
On Reddit, opinions vary widely about what developers Riot Games want to tell us with these videos and names. Many believe that a set of new skins is unlikely, as it would make little sense to announce it mostly with one champion (Zed). So for most, either a new champion or an event is to be expected. However, it should not just be any event, but an “ionic” one. This makes sense when considering the lore of Zed and Sona. However, the latest teaser is from Garen!
But how does Garen fit into an ionic event when this champion literally shouts “Demaciaaaa”? We will have to wait for an answer to how Garen fits into this round.
The question now is whether there will be a teaser for Vi next, who has also been associated with Deadeye in the source codes.
We remain curious and will report as soon as there are new teasers.

According to reports, Activision Blizzard has reportedly purchased the majority of the beleaguered esports organization Major League Gaming (MLG).
Allegedly just before Christmas, Activision Blizzard essentially bought Major League Gaming for 46 million US dollars, as reported by the Esports Observer.
Major League Gaming was for a long time the leading esports league in the USA with titles such as StarCraft 2 or Call of Duty. However, in recent years, competition from ESL (Electronic Sports League) threatened to outpace MLG.
The purchase by Activision Blizzard includes certain “assets,” it is said – “essentially all.” 31 million dollars would be paid to the organization or used to settle outstanding liabilities. 15 million US dollars are being withheld to address potential claims.
Furthermore, according to the Esports Observer, they have replaced the previous CEO of MLG, Sundance DiGiovanni, with Greg Chisholm, who previously worked at MLG. According to the Esports Observer, MLG as we know it will cease to exist.
No official statement from Activision on the matter exists yet. It seems that the information was leaked to the Esports Observer by an angry MLG shareholder. Therefore, the information should be taken with caution.
How this all fits into Activision Blizzard’s long-term plans is currently unknown. In recent months, there have been clear signs that Activision Blizzard would further increase its involvement in esports, as they have established a separate “division” that is well-staffed.
The firecracker remnants lie on the street, the last late starters are being thrown into the drains by the neighborhood kids, and the new year 2016 has finally begun. Most of the good resolutions have already been broken (“Getting up earlier” at 11:30 AM is just hard to believe for anyone). So let’s not be blinded by unrealistic wishes and hopes, but take one last look at the past year 2015.
We want to know from you what your very personal, most beautiful MMO moments were. Perhaps a particularly difficult boss fight that you mastered with your guild? Did you finally get that one mount you’ve been searching for years? Were you able to rekindle an old friendship through an MMO? Or was there a certain story in a game that captivated you so much that you were simply satisfied?
Which MMO provided you with the most beautiful moment in 2015?
Cortyn says: Since I am more than just a little dedicated to role-playing, my most beautiful MMO moments also lie in these memories. Traditionally, my favorite moments are here in the various RP situations in World of Warcraft. This year, I spent a lot of time on my Draenei, who has set her mind on leading as many mage apprentices as possible onto the wrong path (and straight into the arms of the Burning Legion). Even though many moments were quite frustrating, it’s those beautiful “moments” when you engage in role-play for 10-12 hours straight and just have fun.
Absurd moments in role-playing – Definitely Cortyn’s personal highlights.
But also aside from that, I had many good memories that others can probably relate to better, even if they will never reach the social interactions of role-playing (at least for me). The thrill and adrenaline rush when facing equally strong enemies in Evolve and still winning with 1% HP as a monster. The interesting plot twists in the latest expansion KotFE of Star Wars: The Old Republic.
But enough about me and my role-playing nonsense. Did you have a particularly cool moment that shaped you? What gaming moment in 2015 will you remember for a long time? Let us know in the comments and please be as detailed as possible!

The upcoming online shooter “Tom Clancy’s The Division” has now been rated by the ESRB as suitable for “Adults” and classified as a “Mature” title. Additionally, the rating reveals some information about the game content.
These small stickers on games reveal at a glance the suitability of the games for different audiences. There are various organizations responsible for each region. For the USA, this is handled by the ESRB (Entertainment Software Rating Board), which has given “The Division” an “M” rating. This means the recommended age is 17 or older.
According to the ESRB, “The Division” features realistic gunfights with screams of pain and plenty of blood. Players will explore an “urban area” (a city) after a bio-terror attack and engage in “realistic, tactical firefights” against militants and street gangs. The characters primarily use submachine guns, shotguns, turrets, and grenades to kill one another.
According to the ESRB rating, there are also some sequences that show corpses, some of which are hanging from the ceiling. Players must also rescue hostages in certain levels of the game, some of whom get harmed in cutscenes. The story is thus enhanced and told through cutscenes.
Furthermore, terrible, terrible words are used in the game (Warning! Bad words ahead) such as “fuck, shit, and asshole.”
That’s all it took for the ESRB to slap an “M” on it. After choosing the dark scenario, this was to be expected. Author Tom Clancy didn’t write about ponies but rather about military and terrorist threats. Too much softening would not be in the spirit of the fans.
Xur has the shotgun “The Chaperone”, there is no “new” engram for New Year. The shotgun costs 23 strange coins. The Chaperone is considered a very good weapon: Guardians who do not have it yet should consider buying it.
For Titans, he offers the helmet Celestial Warrior (31/46 INT, 34/49 DIS). Xur wants 13 strange coins for the armor pieces.
In TERA, players will soon be able to soar through the skies – at least there is some movement in the Korean version now.
Above the Clouds…
A new trailer is causing a stir in the Korean version of the Free2Play MMORPG TERA. Apparently, players can soon take to the skies in the world of the goddess Velik, as a brand new Pegasus mount (at least it looks very similar) is being introduced. As NEXON Korea has now announced, players will be able to use the mount in certain dungeons, and furthermore, it will function normally on the ground as well. You can see how the winged horse looks in action in this trailer.

The ARK: Survival Evolved players are more active on Xbox One than on PC – the game’s rise seems to have no end.
Unrivaled Happiness
Just yesterday, we reported that ARK: Survival Evolved has already attracted over 1,000,000 players on Xbox One, and now the positive news continues. Although the sheer number of purchases on Xbox is still lower, players on Microsoft’s console are significantly more active. More than 50,000 gamers dive into the island daily and fight against dinosaurs, the harsh conditions of the weather, and other players.
The reason for this is relatively obvious: There are numerous MMO survival games on PC, while on consoles, ARK: Survival Evolved is relatively unmatched. Or as Xbox Wire puts it:
“As the only truly large-scale multiplayer survival game available on console, it is no surprise that the number of players on Xbox already surpasses that of PC.”
How long the rise of ARK will continue is currently uncertain. There seems to be no end in sight anytime soon, even if the official release is still about 7 months away.

In the action MMORPG Marvel Heroes 2015 there are worthwhile gifts for New Year’s Eve and New Year.
For 14 days there were gifts at Marvel Heroes 2015. Today on New Year’s Eve is the highlight. Anyone who logs in today on December 31 will receive a “Random Hero Box,” which can contain the various heroes that exist in Marvel Heroes now. For example, we got the Human Torch.
In Marvel Heroes, almost all heroes are playable, but only up to level 10. Those who want to play them up to level 60 need this unlock.
The different heroes in Marvel Heroes enhance each other through synergy effects; it’s all quite chic and interestingly done, making it worth leveling “your twinks”.
Tomorrow on New Year’s Day, Gazillion will add more: The “classic Dr. Doom” will be available as a team-up, so to speak, as a companion. He can then be used for any of the heroes.

In the MMO shooter Destiny the Iron Banner is back, along with the lag.
Everyone knows it, everyone says it, but somehow Bungie just doesn’t hear it: Your game has a serious lag problem. The Peer2Peer solution you have for the servers might be cheap for you, but it often makes PvP unplayable.
The Iron Banner amplifies the problem every time and makes it more apparent.
Now with tripleWreck, one of the world’s best-known and top PvP players, has made this clear:
Lag has reached the point of completely ruining the PvP experience of Destiny alone. It’s on your end and you need to fix it @Bungie.
“The lag has reached a point where it is completely ruining the PvP of Destiny alone. This is your problem, Bungie. You need to address it.”
tripleWreck is one of the most popular US streamers for Destiny and was once a guest in an important live stream from Bungie.
He further states: He doesn’t want any DLC, no balance patches, until Bungie has solved this major problem. Compared to Battlefront, Halo 5 or the latest Call of Duty, the lag problem makes a difference like day and night. With the latest updates, it has actually gotten worse.
The image we used as a title also comes from tripleWRECK. It shows dedicated servers and the accusation that they are missing due to cost reasons. With the quote “Even EA pays for this shit.”
