Team YP sign US team No Broodmama for ESL NYC qualifiers

Team YouPorn have announced on their website that they are extending their eSports sponsorship into DotA 2 by picking up North American team No Broodmama. YouPorn, a popular free adult entertainment website, ventured into eSports over the last year after sponsoring Spanish gaming club Play2Win. YP is the only adult site to enter into sponsorship of eSports and is a unique brand in the scene in that way.

Team YouPorn is a direct extension of the YouPorn brand, as they presumably see a reasonable intersection between the demographics that play video games and use their online service. The team No Broodmama have been competing in the North American DotA 2 scene recently, making it to the NA qualifiers for ESL One New York.

The team will now be competing under the YouPorn banner in the ESL One qualifiers that will take place from September 11th-13th. The full Team YP roster will be as follows:
  • Qiyang "eleven" Xu
  • Evan "Eraj" Rogers
  • Ken "Kengan" Zhou
  • Steven "Monster" Noel
  • Martin "Sunken" Benthem

Vidictus Dev Team Talks New Character Hagie, Incineration, and Class Balance

$

Vindictus is called Mabinogi: Heroes in South Korea, and the game just released a new character class Hagie, a male master of phantom blade. According to the dev team, they had been considering making a new male character that was completely different from existing characters. Being the first male mage character, Hagie’s pretty appearance was inspired by many stars in real life. 


 
As for Hagie’s combat style, he can do melee combat as well as ranged combat, which makes him capable of going solo in dungeons and fight bosses. Besides, he’s good at doing combo attacks in a short period of time. In the party, Hagie has more supportive abilities than any other characters.


 
Hagie looks overpowered in Korean server. In fact the dev team designed many powerful abilities for him but only chose the most balanced and suitable skills in the final version. Class balance will continue, and currently the team is working on balancing Karok and Kai’s ability. A revamped Karok will hit Korean live server within this year. Additionally the game’s UI will be improved and a new Chapter is being developed.
 
A new feature literal translated as incineration has been implemented in Korean server. The feature allows you to burn down useless items to useful ones. During the process of incineration you will accumulate heat points, which reward you sweet stuff once it reach max.
 
Lastly the team confirmed that there was no plan to develop Vindictus console version.

We all know Blade & Soul NA and EU closed beta will start on October 30 and players in the west are excited. With lots of questions from the western community, the NA development team had a live Q&A recently featured B&S Producer Jongok Ahn, Art Producer Young-Chea Jeung, and Head of Development Team Moonyoung Choi.
 
The team answered many questions from players and some were nice to listen to, such as the plan to add more roles into instances to make player cooperation much fun. The roles mentioned for B&S weren’t tank, healer or DPS roles but more specific actions players had to do to take down particular bosses.
 
Blade & Soul screenshot

Speaking of instance size, the team was surprised that western players already knew the 24-man raid which was just implemented in Korean version. Anyway they did plan to “expand the spectrum of difficulty to meet different players’ needs.” So players can expect more different difficulty levels.
 
You can watch the Q&A here to see other topics discussed in the session, such as B&S’s PVE design philosophy.

New Trailers of Unreal Engine 4 Title Heroes of Incredible Tales Revealed

Not just another brand: will Team YouPorn turn DotA 2 into one big dirty joke?

$

Sponsorship of eSports is a fast growing industry in its own right. Whether you see it as supporting teams or selling out to commercial titans, support from popular companies is a crucial way for eSports teams to succeed. In such communities where people are so passionate about their interest, splashing a big logo over your favourite team’s shirt can seem like selling your soul to the corporate devil or missing the point of eSports entirely.


The arguably brutal reality is that like any industry is that everything, one way or another, comes down to money. (The brutal reality is that, like in any other industry, everything comes down to money, one way or another.) This kind of thinking may be cynical and pessimistic, but the important part to remember is that the more money there is, the more eSports will flourish. Fundamentally, people who play games do so because they enjoy it, despite the venom that is thrown around in threads and comments online. Anything people enjoy they mostly want to do more of and when this enthusiasm turns to real commitment, what better way than to try and make a living from what you love.

Having sponsorship and bringing video games into a positive mainstream light allows those who love eSports to do more of it and those who compete at the highest level to earn a decent living. With big brands like Monster Energy, Razer and Alienware all throwing in their lot with various gaming houses and teams, being a professional gamer is actually becoming genuinely viable. We’re all used to seeing these names on shirts and gear.

Having sponsorship and being covered in mainstream media play off each other in one of the only ways that eSports can get the recognition it deserves. Essentially more sponsorship leads to more attention, which in turn leads to better sponsorship. It makes sense that companies like Razer, Alienware and Monster would want the attention from the eSports community, as they will buy hardware, computer accessories and huge quantities of sugar-fuelled liquid energy.

But in a bold move back in December 2014 one of the biggest porn websites in the world, YouPorn, decided to wade into the fray asking on Twitter if there were any DotA 2 or LoL teams that were looking for sponsorship. Naturally, the people of the internet jumped at this suggestion, retweeting this over 4000 times and favouriting it over 2000 times. The thought of this, not just the site’s content, is alluring in many ways.
 
The original TeamYP formed from Spanish eSports club Play2Win

When asked about this move after a contract was apparently in the works YouPorn said, “We’ve noticed how eSports have really taken on a life of their own, with tv coverage and the size of tournaments growing on the daily, we thought now was a good time to dip our toes in the water.
“There are a number of costs associated with these kinds of competitions – equipment, entry fees, travel costs – we are looking at a variety of possibilities to help our team succeed in competition. We’re still in negotiations, but are very excited to begin this new endeavor!”

The site ended up sponsoring a Spanish eSports club called Play2Win, but now they have confirmed their continued expansion. Team YP, as it has become known, have now picked up North American team No Broodmama, who will be competing in the ESL One New York NA qualifiers over the weekend of September 11th-13th. The brand has gone somewhat unnoticed over the last six months, but as they continue to put their branding on competitive teams, there are maybe a few concerns.

In contrast to the sponsors that I mentioned above, that provide hardware/peripherals/energy drinks, YouPorn doesn’t provide any of those things traditionally associated with gaming. They don’t make computers or headphones and in fact they don’t make anything. YouPorn is a “free online adult entertainment service”. More commonly known as a porn site: a site where, usually horny teen boys let’s be honest, go to get their fix. Given that they are not trying to sell any gaming related product, sure the only marketing thought process can be: “Gamers spend a lot of time on the internet; there’s porn on the internet; let’s try and monopolise this market with our porn”.


 
Naturally the memes came thick and fast...

Apart from the sheer comedy value of having a porn site sponsoring a DotA 2 team, YouPorn is one of the most visited websites in the world and has a huge amount of traction on the internet and, most importantly, decent money to contribute to a team, so in that respect the marketing logic is not that farfetched. Anybody interested in seeing eSports succeed can get on board with a team getting more money and opportunities to compete. Having players coming into tournaments with the tag ‘SingSing.YouPorn’ or ‘n0tail.YouPorn’ would almost be worth it alone.

More seriously though there are real concerns about the image that having a porn website sponsor a competitive eSports team. Aside from jokes about the large intersection between video game enthusiasts and porn ‘enthusiasts’, if eSports is to be taken seriously in mainstream media, having an association with a porn site might actually hinder rather than help the scene.
 
Given that sponsorship is mostly a step in the right direction towards attention from a wider audience, having YouPorn as a partner to an eSports team will draw the spotlight in one way or another. Even the word ‘porn’ grabs the eye of the average viewer. It would be attention, but despite the old adage it might actually be ‘bad’ attention. Part of widening the reach of professional video games is legitimising them in the public sphere. Selling the concept of video games as a sport is hard enough to your average punter. Now imagine having to add that also one of the teams is sponsored by a porn site.

As much as it is not a secret that people watch porn, a lot of porn at that, it is still a taboo subject in public discourse as well as in the general media. Millions of people may be unashamed of their porn habits, but it is hardly a respectable pastime. Like the money, it is the reality of the situation. It has been a long road for those who have fought to help eSports succeed, but recently there has been huge progress. Tournaments like ESL One being held in a football stadium, The International having its prize pool increased 10 times by the community and being covered on big news networks have started to make the case for eSports as just that; a sport.
 
How would ESL feel about having the YouPorn brand at their event?

In response to this concern a spokesperson for YouPorn said, “We’re just a brand looking to have some fun in the gaming community and are not out to create any problems.” But they are not just any other brand. Unfortunately the world that will hopefully receive eSports at large, may have a real aversion to giving a porn site such a large platform in competitive sports.

More than that it could be contentious for the other sponsors that have already put their brand name on the line for the gaming cause. As much as many would like YouPorn to be “just a brand”, there are countless companies, venues, sponsors and relatives of players who view it far from that and regretfully will have an influence on eSports in some collective way.

There is nothing wrong in principle with YouPorn sponsoring a DotA 2 or LoL team. It’s all in good humour and would probably be quite funny to see how creative they could get with things like team kit and merchandise. Who knows it could even work in reverse and legitimise porn sites. I highly doubt that though.

However, I think the reality is that it will appear as a niche hobby, one that is still looked at with suspicion by mainstream communities, sponsored by an illegitimate website. Sadly for YouPorn, they are predicting the correct trends in eSports commercialisation and expansion, but they might be the wrong face to present to a public that is not already sold on professional video game players, let alone porn sites that actually consider themselves serious businesses.

R2 Online: Reign of Revolution was a 3D MMORPG, featuring open world PvP published by Webzen before but it seems the global version of R2 Online has been shut down long time ago as it is removed from Webzen's gamelist. However, the game is now revived in Taiwan by MangoT5 and already started its closed beta on Sep 11th.



R2 Online was developed by Rainbow Studio, the game producer was once responsible for C9 and Black Desert. The 1st closed beta in Taiwan was done by avid and professional gamers, mainly testing the UI and various game systems in R2 Online.



The exp gaining and item droping rate in this beta test are set at 200% (Korean version is 100%) but players showed positive opinions about this setting and the raid entrance ticket can now be bought by in-game currency instead of being sold in the cash shop.

Let's see how will the dead R2 Online goes in Taiwan.

ArcheAge 2.0

ArcheAge
western version finally gets 2.0 update Heroes Awaken on September 12. However, it turns out the update comes with lots of issues in the weekend: many players are not able to log in as they get stuck on the opening cinematics, while many others' client crash after the cinematics ends. There is latency and different types of bugs reported on the game's forum as well as social network such as Reddit. Trion Worlds takes action, rolling all servers back and refunding all purchases from marketplace and APEX.
 
All servers will be rolled back to the state they were in prior to today’s launch entirely. All Marketplace Purchases and APEX purchases will be refunded. If you used an APEX in the 30 minutes the game was available today, those credits will be removed from your character.

Additionally, we will be splitting the launch of Heroes Awaken by region and by server type. We are targeting to open our European servers 1:00 PM GMT (3:00 PM CEST) on September 13, followed by our North American servers opening at 1:00 PM PDT (4 PM EDT) on September 13. Our Legacy servers will be opened first, our Evolution servers will open second, and our Fresh Start servers will open last. There will be a half-hour delay between each server type opening.

These times are estimates, and may be pushed back if the authentication error is not solved.

The team is currently also will be adding in an additional package to apologize for the issues that everyone experienced during this ArcheAge launch. What will be included is still being decided, and we will have more information regarding that in the coming week.
 
Some comments from Reddit about the disaster. 
Lol people getting stuck on the opening cinematic. That was the same thing that happened at launch. You think they would've figured that out hahaha.
Guild wars 2 has the best system for updates downtime isn't even a thing when a new build is ready. Guild wars 2 does so many things right and no downtime is a seriously underrated thing about the game.
They're rolling back the servers so hopefully a lot of the players who were coming back give it another shot.
 
And the latest forum post regarding the server status has generated over 3000 replies with most of which are complaints.
 
Player who managed to log into the game and noticed lots of new players were trying to queue for quests and look for mentor.

ArcheAge 2.0

ArcheAge tries to win back players, with 2.0 update and fresh start servers. Obviously many new players are coming along to check out the game (some come back to give it a second try). It doesn't go well now. Do you think the game will get better or worse? Tell me what you think.

Pokémon Company unveiled a new business strategy for its franchise Pokémon at a press conference in Japan on Thursday, Sept. 10. It’s called Pokemon Go, and it’s the first time Pokémon appear in the real world.



The Pokémon Company President Tsunekazu Ishihara, Niantic Labs CEO John Hanke and head of Game Freak Junichi Masuda took on to the stage to show us what Pokémon Go will be. 



The game is being developed by Niantic, a former Google start up known for its augmented reality smartphone game Ingress. Pokémon Go will share the same GPS with Ingress, which allowing players to find virtual Pokémon and do battle in the real world. 





In Pokémon Go Plus, all the maps were designed by famous cities in real world such as Hokkaido, Kanto, New York, Paris and more. It will strengthen the bond between real world and virtual world. Players are available to trade with other gamers face to face and join co-op event to challenge rare Pokémon.




To avoid staring at your phone all day, Nintendo also announced a watch-like peripheral for the game called Pokémon Go Plus that allows you to basic things like throw a Poké Ball. Pokémon Go Plus will use bluetooth to connect with your smartphones, and when the Pokémon Go Plus is activated, it will vibrate and flash. What you have to do is press the button to throw Poké Ball. Besides, players can also play this game without using Pokémon Go Plus, but it will reduce the amount of time players spend staring at their smart devices in order to play the game.




According to Shigeru Miyamoto, Pokémon Go Plus reminds him of Pokémon Snap. Miyamoto added that he likes the idea of kids wearing the Pokémon Go Plus that is paired with a parent’s phone. That way kids and parents can play Pokémon Go together.
