Who knew that being gone for a week would mean that all of the world's biggest gaming announcements were going to happen! This week we've got new details on Grand Theft Auto 6, a new Legend of Zelda live action movie announced by Nintendo themselves, Against the Storm, Caves of Qud, and more info from Blizzcon than you can shake a stick at!   Grand Theft Auto 6 Trailer Arriving in December - Article by IGN Grand Theft Auto 6: All the news we've heard about Rockstar's next game - Article by Polygon Nintendo announces a live-action film based on its hit video game 'The Legend of Zelda' - Article by Eurogamer Against the Storm - A dark fantasy city builder where you must rebuild civilization in the face of apocalyptic rains. As the Queen's Viceroy, lead humans, beavers, lizards, foxes, and harpies to reclaim the wilderness and secure a future for civilization's last survivors. - Eremite Games (Steam, available now) Caves of Qud - Caves of Qud is a science fantasy roguelike epic steeped in retrofuturism, deep simulation, and swathes of sentient plants. Come inhabit an exotic world and chisel through layers of thousand-year-old civilizations. - Freehold Games (Steam, available now in Early Access) Blizzcon 2023 Diablo IV: Vessel of Hatred will introduce a never-before-seen class to the Diablo franchise. It takes place in Hahantu, an area from Diablo 2, and continues Mephisto's story. Vessel of Hatred is poised to launch Fall 2024 Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHuaCwmx-Rg Overwatch 2: Blizzard announced a new hero Mauga who is the first Samoan hero to debut in Overwatch! Mauga features a kit that is designed to bash through the front lines and brawl his opponents in close-quarter combat, by wielding two powerful Chainguns that can either be fired individually or in unison. Ignite enemies with his Incendiary Chaingun “Gunny” to burn them when they take enough damage, then finish them with a critical hit from his Volatile Chaingun “Cha-Cha.” Paired with his Berserker Passive, which grants Mauga temporary health whenever he deals critical damage, he's a mountain on the battlefield. Mauga's not just a leading star—he also brings a host of new abilities to support his team as well. Mauga can break his way through the front lines with Overrun, a charging ability that cannot be stopped by any crowd control abilities, and stomps into opponents dealing a powerful knockback. When the fight gets intense for his team, he has Cardiac Overdrive to engage both of his hearts and create an aura that reduces incoming damage, allowing allies to heal themselves while dealing damage. Finally, when he really wants to tango up close with his foes, Mauga can unleash Cage Fight, his ultimate ability. Cage Fight traps nearby opponents in a cylindrical fighting ring. This barrier blocks enemy incoming damage or healing from the outside, forcing those trapped inside to face Mauga with Gunny, Cha Cha, and the barrage of infinite ammunition. If you can't take him down quickly, the last thing you might see is his charming smile. Mauga will officially become available to play at the start of season 8 which starts 12/5/2023 Mauga Origin Story: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCLjZDkpBoY Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQfRHycUsmQ Hearthstone: Showdown in the Badlands: Deep in the heart of the Badlands, the Bloodrock Mining Company has struck gold! Or, rather, something even better: Azerite. Now they're double-timing their mining, bleeding the land dry and putting everyone in the Badlands at risk. Mysterious heroes came on horseback to set the town right, but the corrupt Sheriff Barrelbrim's stubborn as his hat is tall. It's high time for high noon in this Showdown in the Badlands! New keyword “Quickdraw” - In the Badlands, being quick on the draw might just save your hide. Cards with the Quickdraw keyword get a special effect on the turn they are added to your hand. Shoot cards off as soon as you draw them, or plan around your Quickdraws with bounce and generation effects! New keyword “Excavate” - There's treasure in them there hills! Cards with the Excavate keyword get your treasures from the Azerite mine. Each time you Excavate, you dig deeper and find rarer treasures! Sketchy Townsfolk - The entire town is digging deeper and deeper into the mines, looking for Azerite treasures. Townsfolk classes have extra Excavate synergies and a unique reward for their Excavations! The corrupt Sheriff Barrelbrim's behind the operation, and he doesn't care what damage they do to the Badlands... or what they might awaken. Heroic Outlaws - Sometimes, it takes an outlaw's intervention for folks to start straight-shootin'. Some classes brought an outlaw to the Showdown in the Badlands. These lone gunslingers have extra effects if there are no duplicates in your deck. So, what do you say, are you feeling lucky? Hearthstone: Showdown in the Badlands is available to play on 11/14/2023 Hearthstone What's Next Panel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcyDB4pBTHQ Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5___jYm6vs Warcraft Rumble: Warcraft® Rumble™ is a mobile action strategy game set within the Warcraft universe where collectible Minis come to life to battle in frantic melee skirmishes. Play in multiple modes, including the single player campaign, going head-to-head in epic PvP battles, and more. Experience the true meaning of joyful chaos! Deploy: Use gold reserves to deploy your Minis strategically on the battlefield. Gain additional gold passively over time, by mining, or finding treasure chests. Capture: Capture objectives like Guard Towers and Meeting Stones, then use them to deploy your Minis closer to the objective. Controlling the map is key to victory! Strategize: Different Mini abilities give you an advantage in combat. Flying troops are strong against melee troops. Siege troops deal additional damage to Guard Towers, and so on. Master your Minis' abilities to succeed and learn Talents to make them even more powerful! Conquer: Your Minis will march towards enemy Leaders and attempt to take them down. Support your deployed Troops with powerful Spells and direct them to victory. There are 5 factions: Alliance, Horde, Beast, Blackrock, and Undead. Control heroes from Warcraft lore like Tirion Fordring, Grommash Hellscream, Hogger, General Drakkisath, and Baron Rivendare! Blizzard has also made the 3D blueprints available for all their Mini avatars for free, so you can 3D print them for just the cost of 3D printing supplies! Warcraft Rumble is available to play now on Android and iOS! Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgOreJl6BJQ World of Warcraft World of Warcraft Classic: Season of Discovery: Those hoping for a Classic+ are seemingly getting what they've asked for! The announcement of Season of Discovery for WoW Classic! In Season of Discovery, players will discover new secrets by scouring Azeroth to find class-altering abilities. Tanking Warlocks, Mage healers, and more will be possible. The Season will launch with an initial level cap of 25, and upon reaching max level, players will be met with a new level-25 endgame! Discover a 10-player Blackfathom Deeps raid with new and reimagined bosses, mechanics, and rewards. Not long after, the level cap will be increased by a few levels, bringing even more endgame content. As players progress through Season of Discovery, they will find class-altering abilities in the form of Runes. These runes will alter spells, or grant new abilities that allow classes to do things they haven't before, or to augment their current abilities and spells to do something entirely different! This even includes Runes that are inspired by later expansions, granting classes abilities that have never been seen in earlier iterations of World of Warcraft. World of Warcraft Classic: Season of Discovery will launch 11/30/23 WoW Classic: What's Next Panel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B1rcs9mmf-s&t=1998s World of Warcraft: Cataclysm Classic: It's the Cataclysm all over again…But different, but same. Same but different. If Classic Wrath of the Lich King is any indicator, Cataclysm might have a bright future ahead of it! Cataclysm Classic comes with an improved leveling experience, a new dungeon difficulty, account-wide pets and transmogs, a streamlined auction house, and a level cap of 85! World of Warcraft: Cataclysm Classic will launch on or before 8/21/2024 Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XT7Q9Am8yM World of Warcraft: The Worldsoul Saga: Chris Metzen delighted fans of World of Warcraft with an announcement of not ONE, but THREE new expansions for the retail version of World of Warcraft! Starting with the subterranean expansion The War Within, which takes us deeper into Azeroth than ever before! This expansion includes new zones Azj-kahet, Isle of Dorn, The Ringing Deeps, and Hallowfall, new dungeons, raids, a new battleground, and a new Allied race playable to both the Alliance and the Horde: The Earthen Dwarves. Along with the new zones to explore, it also comes with all new Hero Talents, which is a separate talent system, and a new treasure hunting activity called Delves, which can be played both solo and with a group to acquire new items and gear. Similar to dungeons, Delves will often contain formidable foes, but unlike dungeons, they will also contain puzzles of varying difficulty, and possibly more that has not been announced. And to wrap it all up, a new feature known as War Bands has also been announced. War Bands share a bank, reputation gains and more! The Worldsoul Saga also has 2 additional expansions titled Midnight, and The Last Titan respectively. Not much was announced about these two expansions, other than the World of Warcraft team is dedicated to bringing out all 3 of these expansions in a much quicker cadence than we've seen expansion launches in the past. This isn't too surprising though, as Final Fantasy 14 has done this in the past, and if Blizzard is good at anything, it's copying good ideas. The War Within expansion will launch on or before 12/31/2024 The War Within Features Overview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSvLkzRt9fc The War Within: What's next Panel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMDQzaRsVqc The War Within Deep Dive Panel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPqZ7LSGjSU Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c55uHFbfeaw

A: It's not something they've completely moved away from; there's a place for loot you get randomly from a boss, and for guaranteed progression from other sources. Titanite Residuum helps, but they could probably do more for the raid and dungeons, while Conquest serves that purpose for PvP, allowing you to work toward guaranteed rewards which complement end of match and weekly chest loot. Seeing as the War Mode bonus has been at 30% for the Alliance, does this team feel like this has been a failure at balancing? A:They wouldn't be surprised to see it tick down to 25% for the Alliance. They've seen it very effective for the underrepresented faction and they feel this is a success as the faction imbalance is half of what is was. What is being done about server stability and lag?  A:It's a top priority. But it's not a single problem and it's death by a thousand cuts. They've fixed some problems but they're still investigating and its an ongoing process. Specific reports help, especially with time stamps so that the engineers can look at the logs. Can PvP please get some sort of vendor?  A:The way vendors worked out in the past, there was an order in which you bought pieces off the vendor. But they understand there is a value in the vendor of Control. The system that they're creating that is more transparent and offers those choice. One of the things they're improving is a choice of 4 Azerite Pieces in Season 2, so that every trait occurs at least once. When you cap your Conquest, you also get a Quartermaster's Coin which allows you to upgrade those pieces in the long term. Certain weeks you'll be able to choose between say 2 Bracers and 2 Pants with different stats. You can pick the best one for you and then upgrade it in the long term with a Trophy bought form a Quartermaster's Coin.  In the past, when they had vendors, they had PvP stats like PvP Power and Resilience and because that doesn't exist anymore they need to take into account the rest of the game. There's no such thing as a Raid Vendor and PvP already offers a lot of control. PvP currently offers the most selection as to what piece of gear you want.

A: Spell batching was how WOW used to process abilities.  They were processed in batches or stacks by the servers, so if spells were cast close enough in real time, they would happen simultaneously by server time.   Congratulations to Solafyde for being the first to send in a correct answer!

Felt that artifact weapon system was interesting in the beginning of the expansion but not at the end of it. Lots of choices in the beginning and none in the end. Discussion about making certain things accountwide -- seemed to think things were pretty OK the way they were. Too much accountwide stuff and characters lose identity, but opening areas, flying, etc., seem to be good kept accountwide.

May be new mounts themed around Night Elves and Forsaken in conjunction with this event. New details on PvP New world PvP system called War Mode: players toggle PvP in a capitol city on any server. This will put them in a separate server shard, away from the PvE characters. War Mode gives extra rewards and Azerite, and also allows access to special world PvP events.

Felt that artifact weapon system was interesting in the beginning of the expansion but not at the end of it. Lots of choices in the beginning and none in the end. Discussion about making certain things accountwide -- seemed to think things were pretty OK the way they were. Too much accountwide stuff and characters lose identity, but opening areas, flying, etc., seem to be good kept accountwide. Battle for Azeroth Mag’har Orcs and Iron Dwarf allied races will be available after completing the Battle for Azeroth war campaign. Zandalari and Kul’Tiras will be unlocked later in the expansion. BFA alpha lasting longer than in the past. Beta polishes features and features are still being added to alpha. Six emissaries for each faction - 3 home continent, two neutral (Tortollan and Voice of Azeroth) and a War Faction with quests on the enemy continent. 8.0 prepatch Likely a few weeks before the expansion Will introduce the Burning of Teldrassil and Battle for Lordaeron. May be new mounts themed around Night Elves and Forsaken in conjunction with this event. New details on PvP New world PvP system called War Mode: players toggle PvP in a capitol city on any server. This will put them in a separate server shard, away from the PvE characters. War Mode gives extra rewards and Azerite, and also allows access to special world PvP events. PvP gear system revamp: conquest point system returning in the form of a bar you fill up to earn new gear each week. When you’re finished with a set, you can move up. There will be ways to skip ahead. Changes to Honor and Prestige: honor levels will be account wide. Naked and Afraid FInisher: Alcina, night elf mage -- 110

This Battleground will offer dynamic control point gameplay similar to Arathi Basin, but with new control points appearing periodically as resources are depleted. This new Battleground will require coordination as you and your team work to overcome the opposing faction. Since this Battleground actually serves to tell part of the story that leads to the events of Battle for Azeroth, we also plan to offer a preview of the Seething Shore during patch 7.3.5 as we continue to build upon the conflict between the Horde and the Alliance for the coming expansion.   Warcraft PVP Scene NA Bracket http://us.battle.net/wow/en/pvp/leaderboards/2v2 EU PVP Brackets: https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-gb/game/pvp/leaderboards/2v2   Finding Us Technically - https://www.twitch.tv/technically_pvp https://twitter.com/Technically_PvP Technicallypvp@gmail.com https://technicallypvp.wordpress.com/ Andallyn - https://twitter.com/Andallyn1244 https://www.twitch.tv/andallyn Windstead - https://twitter.com/windstead84

All content previous to Warlords will SCALE TO LEVEL - within ranges Classic starting zones: 1-10 All old world vanilla zones: 10-60 Burning Crusade and Wrath zones: 60-80 Cataclysm and Pandaria zones: 80-90 What this means: You can actually complete zones without leveling out of them and feeling forced to move on and you can choose where you level up Dungeons will also scale accordingly - so will loot drops (yes, run Wailing Caverns at 60 and you’ll get level 60 mobs and level 60 gear) Incoming also - no release date Accounts with an authenticator attached will get a “small increase” to the size of their standard 16 slot backpack - may be connected to WoW’s upcoming 13th anniversary event (Nov 16-30) Expansion: Battle for Azeroth (not Tides of Vengeance) - also no release date Basics: Level to 120 (one instant boost to 110) Return to faction based play areas Bye-bye Teldrassil and Undercity (but not Silvermoon and Exodar) -- hello each faction controlling their own continent Does the zone control mean no leveling zones for the opposite faction?
