Aeria Games has just released a fully interactive WORLD MAP for Dragomon Hunter, the upcoming free-to-play, monster-hunting, anime-style MMORPG, via its official site. With that map, interested players can now preview of every zone in the huge, immersive world that they will explore in their quest for the ultimate hunt.

From the beautiful sapphire waters of the seashore to the harsh frozen peaks high above, every inch of Dragomon Hunter's spectacular land is teeming with life and majesty. Players will begin their quest in Elysium, the world's largest city and the starting point of every hunter's adventure. Throughout their journey, players will travel to exotic areas like Frostbite Forest, where icy paths can easily lead hunters astray, and Echo Mine, a rain-washed locale overrun with territorial Dragomon.

Dragomon Hunter

  • Frostbite Forest
    The icy paths through the Frostbite Forest can easily lead hunters astray. Take care not to get lost, and keep an eye out for the strange Dragomon that roam wild among the frozen trees.

Dragomon Hunter

  • Everfrost Berg
    The Everfrost Berg is located in the northeast of the central continent. Those living here must endure extremely harsh weather and the presence of dangerous Dragomon, such as ferocious Dracopards!

Dragomon Hunter

  • Ventari Hill
    The steep cliffs of Ventari Hill swarm with Beakis and Silverspine Ringoons. Don't let these deceptively cute Dragomon fool you: battling them will test the strength and wits of even veteran hunters!

Dragomon Hunter

  • Ventari Fields
    Ventari Fields is a peaceful farm land located near Elysium. Recently, aggressive Dragomon have invadeded the area, forcing the locals to request help from Elysium's hunting associations.

Dragomon Hunter

 
  • Elysium
    Elysium is the world's biggest city and serves as the starting point of every hunter's adventure. Everything you could ask for is close at hand: all the best guilds and shops are here!

Dragomon Hunter

  • Echo Valley
    Home to various species of extremely fierce Dragomon, Echo Valley is a beautiful forested region lying a few miles south of Elysium. Don't be fooled by its idyllic appearance: the valley is a dangerous place even for experienced hunters.

Dragomon Hunter

  • Echo Mine
    The Echo Mine is a gloomy place where rain falls all year round. Territorial Dragomon like Scarlet Fangsaurs and Arashi Ireclaws populate the area and attack intruders on sight. The few hunters that risk a trip to this desolate area seek the rare diamonds that can only be found within the mine.

Dragomon Hunter

  • Viridian Forest
    The Viridian Forest is a very spiritual and serene area, home to the famous Pantherus. The forest is bordered by fertile fields, where the farmers are struggling to keep pesky Quackadactyls out of their crops!

Dragomon Hunter

  • Wraithwood
    The towering trees and overgrown mushrooms of the Wraithwood shelter hunters and Dragomon alike. If you're brave enough to explore this secluded place, be careful not to accidentally wander into a wild Dragomon's lair without the proper equipment!

Dragomon Hunter

 
  • Sporefall Core
    Eerie and ominous, the Sporefall Core feels like something out of a twisted fairy tale. It is swarming with Dragomon fitting the sinister atmosphere; even battle-hardened hunters can find themselves overwhelmed if they enter unprepared.

Dragomon Hunter

  • Sporefall Forest
    Covered in thorns and poisonous mushrooms, the Sporefall Forest is steeped in perpetual twilight. Its native inhabitants - terrifying gigantic insects and eerie reptiles - deter all but the most determined hunters from exploring this gloomy landscape.

Dragomon Hunter

  • Primeval Marsh
    The Primeval Marsh is a mystical place, hidden deep in the eastern swamps. The local fauna - Fen Croakers, Marsh Crocoturtles, and Slithering Dragolizards - are often spotted lounging in the shade of the gigantic mushroom-trees that thrive in the area.

Dragomon Hunter

  • Marsh Abyss
    At the heart of the eastern marsh lies the Marsh Abyss, a foreboding tangle of vines and crystal trees. Beware the snapping bite of the Marsh Crocoturtles hiding in the swamp!

Dragomon Hunter

 
  • Crescent Cape
    Located in the southeast of the central continent, Crescent Cape has the look of a pirate paradise! But watch out - Dragomon roam the entire zone, living among palm trees, shipwrecks, and magnificent coral spires!

Dragomon Hunter

  • Crescent Bay
    Crescent Bay is dotted with dilapidated shipwrecks lying in the shadow of the colossal remains of an ancient Dragomon. Rumor has it that a gigantic terrotorial fish inhabits the waters, so be careful if you plan on going for a swim!

Dragomon Hunter

  • Cain's Woods
    The lush foliage of Cain's Woods has long overgrown the mysterious carvings that can be found here. The forest is home to many wild Dragomon that dwell peacefully amongst clouds of fireflies.

Dragomon Hunter

  • Cain's Glade
    Cain's Glade is located in the heart of a thick forest and is inhabited by woodland Dragomon like Vinehorn Rams and Fellswine. Ancient relics are scattered all around, but most people venture into the Glade to exploit its natural resources

Star Wars Battlefront Details Supremacy, the Largest Ground PvP Mode in the Game

Star Wars Battlefront is designed as a multiplayer game at the first place to entertain MMO gamers, online shooting fans, and competitive FPS gamers. DICE has revealed details of the Supremacy PvP mode which pits two teams of players fight for the control of the majority of 5 points scattered across the map within 10 minutes. It's worth mentioning that Supremacy is the largest fighting ground the game has to offer.

Star Wars Battlefront Supremacy mode
 
Each team starts the match controlling two of these control points, initially fighting for control of the fifth one in the center. After this is determined, the control points need to be claimed in a set order. This means the action will be taking place on two control points at a time – one for each team.
 

If you’re the defending type, Supremacy will guarantee many enemies assaulting your control point. If you’re an attacking player, you'll surely find them trying to defend their control point from capture, ensuring constant frontline action.
 
Almost all vehicles in Star Wars Battlefront will take part in the fight, so keep an eye on the sky for TIE fighters and X-wings soaring through the sky to assist the quest for supremacy at each location. Heroes and Villains will also join the fight, and their unique abilities will help both sides in different ways.

Star Wars Battlefront will release on PC, Xbox One and PS4 on November 17.

Earth Online Sounds Like the Largest and Most Unlikely MMO You Could Have

$

Earth Online
 (official site) is an Unreal Engine 4 MMO claims to have a large sandbox world that includes almost everything you have and things you can do in real life. In social aspect, it plans to become a simulation of real life — you'll need to get a driver license before you can drive a car. In MMO aspect, it allows you to build your house (even government), and fight like you do in GTA.

The game is being developed by an independent team called Kupai, who will soon start crowdfunding in China. The project remains in very early stage and if you think it's practicable, you can vote for the game at Steam Greenlight page.
 

 
Some of the major gameplay systems the developer team plans to make
 
Survival system
You will get thirty and hungry and you need to eat and drink. You'll even get sick so you have to take good care of yourself like you do in real life.
 
Identity system 
You'll have a citizen ID that displays your age, gender, address and so on. It also records your credit and deeds which will affect your life in the game.
 
Craft system
You can grow vegetables, do fishing, go hunting, raise cattle, and more.
 
Pet system
With Unreal engine's AI technology, you will have extensive interaction with pets.
 
Construction system 
You can build, rent or sell houses in particular areas. You can decorate and redecorate your house.
 
Marriage system
Stable marriage will help you in socialization even in the campaign for senator or mayor.
 
Economy system 
It claims to have banks, credit cards, stock market, and loan which have the similar rules to the reality. You can start your own company and become CEO.
 
Vehicle system
You need to pass the test and get a license to drive. You can modify your cars. Driving tends to be more like a sim game than arcade game.
 
Combat system
Lots of weapons with realistic recoil. Police will stop you if you use weapons in public.
 
Nation system
You can run campaign for mayor even president. You can raise war against other nations. Guilds are available in this game but it will be more like party in real life. Your guild can campaign for positions in the government.
 
Profession system
Cops, doctors, and even taxi drivers — all professions are supposed to be similar to those in real life. You can change your job.
 
Adventure system
You can explore the uncharted world (forgot to say that the game sets in a world revives from apocalypse). Will there be mutants, zombies or treasures in the wild?
 
Gathering system 
You can gather metal, oil, woods, herbs and sell for money.
 
Communication system
There are radios, cellphones, and satellites that can be used for communication. Friend list will be in your cellphone.
 
After reading these, do you still think this game will happen? You think this is a joke? It does have some screenshots already

Hardcore 3D Mobile FPS Dead Union Preview

Dead Union is a hardcore 3D mobile FPS game, but not just another mobile FPS game. With the title 'Dead Union', it is possibly to imagine that the enemies in game are walking dead creatures? While Dead Union has more, players can even deploy them in their bases in PVP mode. Besides, X-Mode, in which enemies appear endlessly will definitely test players' shooting accuracy and reaction speeds. The mentioned two game modes seem beyond FPS category, and that will bring some special game experience for mobile FPS game players.

Start the mission through the button on the top right of the display, eliminate all zombies with the tips of the guide.

Dead Union provides several battle fields with a strong story line, so each level does come with different zombies and scenes that enrich the game experience.

In Dead Union, the controls are fairly simple; with a drag on the left-hand side moving your body and the same on the right hand-side moving your view.

Dead Union

Dead Union

Using the button on the right, players can fire guns and tap the aimed icon to get a more accurate shot. The button on the top right allows them to switch weapons.

For the more than FPS part, the PVP and X-Mode surely add more entertainment for the typical mobile FPS games

In PVP Mode, players are provided a base to defend. Upgrade their bases and zombie force with gained resources from the defeated ones.

In X-Mode, the first thing to do is to choose a difficulty level. Before zombies appear, players have enough time to deploy automatic guns and items including landmine and atom bombs and so on.

Dead Union

There's no shortage of high-quality first-person shooters on Android and iOS, with Dead Trigger 2 and the Modern Combat series being just a couple of them. Dead Union may be one of them, hopefully. It is an independently created game with its unique features. The overall presentation is decent. The excellent sound effects, fine designed zombie images and the creative play modes together present a good expression and make it outstanding among 3D mobile FPS games.

For those looking for a cool game that has a zombie story, Dead Union is a good choice. For all the variety of weapons, decent graphics, excellent sound effects and most importantly, PVP in mobile FPS game together with X-Mode make it so. Lastly, it's free to play, so Dead Union would make surprise and give its users an opportunity to play a high quality 3D FPS for nothing.

In Felspire, every guild will get its own miniature city to develop.  As the city and guild develop, the guild master will be able to recruit more and more veteran fighters to join the guild’s ranks. As the guild levels up, members will be able to purchase special items at discount prices and receive exclusive buffs – giving them an edge over their many foes in the world of Eremos. Players receive badges for donating – and these badges can be used to redeem items they can use to boost their own combat power. 

Felspire guild system

The Realm system in Felspire makes the guild feature in this game particularly unique. The Realm System offers three dungeons that are exclusive to that guild. Guild members can team up and take on these dungeons for exclusive loot that can help build their character to new levels of power. These realms are exclusive to guilds – so you’ll have to join one if you wish to partake in these three dungeons.

Felspire guild system

Beyond merely cooperating with guild members – you'll be able to join forces with your comrades and execute devastating assaults on rival guilds. The Guild vs. Guild battles offer another element of player interaction by allowing the top guilds to fight each other in daily siege battles. The victors of this struggle will then have the chance to defend their position in the following guild battle.

Felspire guild system

The Realm System and GvG battles promise some depth of player interaction by giving players reasons to cooperate with, scheme against, and fight each other to determine the true champions of Felspire.

All Remaining TGT Cards Revealed - See 54 Brand New Cards

$
0
0


Blizzard just revealed every single remaining card from The Grand Tournament in one giant card dump earlier today. There are more than 50 new cards for you to digest, study, and absolutely salivate over! Trust me when I say they saved some totally overpowered cards for the final reveal.

Just keep scrolling and you'll see the stale Hearthstone meta game falling apart before your very eyes. The cards in this batch of reveals are absolutely crazy, and I'll pop in with a little discussion for the wildest ones that warrant it. I can't wait to see what the game is going to look like in a month's time!  




The first two class legendary cards are a mixed bag. Confessor Paletress has a pretty weak body and a very slow effect. It's certainly a powerful effect in many cases, so keeping her on the board for multiple hero powers is the only way she'll get a ton of value. The Mistcaller, on the other hand, is loaded with absurd instant value. It gives extra stats to every single minion you haven't already played, adding up to ridiculous long-term power gains. 




None of the other legendary cards stand out as particularly strong. Acidmaw and Dreadscale are an interesting turn 10 combo, but lack little utility beyond that. Although Bolf Ramshield could be a neat anti-combo card with reasonable stats, his stats aren't going to be winning games on their own. Chillmaw is a very interesting anti-aggro card for dragon decks, even if his stats are below average for the cost. 


































When it comes to the various new class cards, a few certainly look like they'll rise above the rest. Mulch will give Druid's a more trustworthy hard removal option compared to the riskier Naturalize. Convert will give Priests yet another way to steal some absurd value from opponents. Wyrmrest Agent is a great early-game weapon for dragon Priest decks that are right on the verge of being good. Elemental Destruction is finally giving Shamans a board clear, but it comes at great cost over two turns. 



















As for all the new neutral minions, it looks like Arena is going to be totally shaken up, because virtually all of these cards are going to be great in that format. When it comes to constructed, there are a still a few that might see play. Refreshment Vendor is an Antique Healbot with a better body that will see some experimentation. Saboteur has a powerful effect, and it could be a great turn-3 tempo play against Handlocks. Captured Jormungar looks pretty boring, but it's one of the best big minions in the game as far as stat allocation is concerned, and it also has beast synergy. 

Now that you've taken a look at all 54 of these cards, you've probably seen every single card that The Grand Tournament has to offer! The expansion launches very soon, and then we'll get to see all these amazing cards in action for the first time! 
 

Cloud9 Dota 2 roster disbanded - confirmed by owner

After an unsuccessful run during TI5, the Cloud9 Dota 2 roster has officially disbanded. This news was initially announced on the Twitch stream of the former Cloud9 support Misery, but was soon echoed by his teammates and the team owner himself. As C9 owner Jack Etienne tweeted earlier, the organization will still have a Dota 2 roster, but the team will be completely revamped. As of now, there is no further information regarding specific roster changes, or if any TI5 C9 members will be retained.
 

Teams often move players around after TI, especially when they are thought to have underperformed. The disbanding of the TI5 Cloud9 roster marks the beginning of this traditional post-TI shuffle, and more roster shifts are sure to follow. 

Dota 2: Possible Surgery for Fear

After their great victory at TI5 some problems are already knocking at Evil Geniuses’ doors. Clinton "Fear" Loomis alerted his fans on twitter that tomorrow he will know if he is eligible for a surgery for his arm. This is not the first time that the American carry player has this kind of problems, in fact on March 22th 2014 he was replaced by Mason "mason" Venne due to a serious case of mouse elbow. 
 

Peter "ppd" Dager asked for a good NA carry player on Twitter so probably they are already looking out for who will cover Fear while he has surgery. We can only wish him to recover as soon as possible and hope that EG won’t lose his ‘old’ carry.
 

9 More TGT Cards Reviewed - New Legendary Cards & More

$
0
0


The Grand Tournament is almost here, and Blizzard has almost revealed every card in the new expansion. We've got a detailed look at 8 more of the new cards that were revealed this week, including three brand new legendaries that are sure to leave their mark on the meta game.




Up first are a pair of neutral minions. Icehowl is a giant yeti that clearly puts the tiny Chillwind Yeti to shame when it comes to stats. As a 10/10, it's one of the biggest minions in the game, and it has charge! The crazy part is that it can't be used to attack heroes, so it's all about board presence and forcing your opponent to come up with an answer. This card might actually be playable in the right kind of deck since it has an immediate impact and a huge body that's going to be leftover. Light's Champion is a very niche minion that will be very difficult to use because it really only counters one specific class. Its stats are fine, but the effect will be wasted a majority of the time, making it a below average Arena card and mostly useless in constructed.  




Both of the new class legendaries that were revealed are absolutely bonkers! Varian Wrynn might just be the best card in the game, and that's a fairly conservative statement. Even though he's 10 mana, his battlecry effect is completely insane in terms of value. Not only are you drawing three cards, which is huge in its own right, but you're instantly playing any minions that show up. You could end up with instant unbeatable boards from a single card. Its only potential downside is wasting battlecry effects, but even then, if you're able to drop four minions at once, it won't matter. With charge or taunt decks, this card gets even more ridiculous. Rhonin isn't quite so crazy, but he's still awfully good. Any Mage decks that synergize with cheap spells will love this card, because it's expanding the size of your deck by three cards, giving you 9 free damage, and adding three cheap spells that open up combos. The worst case scenario for this card is that you make them burn two kinds of removal on it. Rest assured, Rhonin will be doing crazy things before too long. 





A handful of new class minions debuted this week too. Sea Plunderer is a giant Warrior card that's basically just a Boulderfist Ogre with a Whirlwind attached. It has some interesting applications and might open up some creative combos in late-game Warrior decks, but it's still unclear how exactly this card will fit into the current meta decks popular with the class. The value and potential are certainly there, they just have to be explored. Cutpurse is an intriguing card with a very powerful effect. Unfortunately it's going to be very difficult to get that effect to actually go off, and you're somewhat limiting your early-game options if you do activate it. It will be solid in Arena, and might do some nifty things in constructed play as well. Ram Wrangler is theoretically quite strong, and gives midrange Hunters an intriguing option as a turn 5 play. The lack of consistency and high cost for its weak body are the two things which will hold this card back. Every time it summons a Captain's Parrot instead of a Savannah Highmane, more people will drop it from their deck. 



Only one new class spell was unveiled, but it sure is a neat one. Shamans have lacked a basic heal for a very long time, and that's finally being remedied. Healing Wave is a strong default card that compares to Druid's Healing Touch as a base card, and when you're able to make it win a joust in late-game situations, it's totally absurd as a 14-point heal. This will make slower Shaman decks more viable and give them a big recovery tool to stretch out long games and win.  

That wraps up this batch of new cards. It might be the strongest set of reveals we've seen so far, because a few of these cards are total powerhouses that will undoubtedly be played often, and played well.

It was announced earlier today that Moscow's Cyper Arena is going to be closed down because it has allegedly become financially unviable. However, this evening the owner of gaming brand Virtus.Pro Anton 'Sneg1' Cherepennikov said via Russian social media website VK.com that his organisation will be taking over the venue. 

There are relatively few details on the arena, but it has an estimated floor space of 2000 square metres and will now hopefully continue to be host to various eSports events. It has held several big Russian LANs in the past including Uprise Champions Cup, DreamHack Moscow 2014 and Moscow Fighting Arena 2015.

Details of Virtus.Pro's involvement with the arena will likely be released in September by Sneg1 and the Virtus.Pro official website.

Earlier today Kurtis "Aui_2000" Ling claimed on twitter to have been kicked from Evil Geniuses. The news upset the community and most didn’t believe his words initially, thinking that it was a joke or that his account was hacked. In the following time different people, including Jacky "EternaLEnVy" Mao, confirmed his words.
 


Less than one hour later EG’s manager Charlie Yang released a post explaining that the captain and the other players thought that this is the best decision for the team and that the management didn’t take any roster decision on their behalf.

 
EG is deeply grateful to Kurtis for what he has helped contribute, and will continue to support him in whatever he decides to do and wherever he decides to go. I say this both for myself and on behalf of the organization.

New Evil Geniuses Roster:
  • Artour "Arteezy" Babaev
  • Syed “Sumail” Hassan
  • aahil "UNiVeRsE" Arora
  • Clinton "Fear" Loomis
  • Peter "ppd" Dager (Captain)

At the same time Artour "Arteezy" Babaev joined the team as position 1 while Clinton "Fear" Loomis will take Aui_2000 place as support. He already played this role in the past to better fit the team’s needs on May 2013 and he resulted being and excellent support.
 


Later today also Team Secret released a post on their Facebook page. They confirmed that Arteezy will leave the roster to join EG and wished him all the best. Instead Ludwig "zai" Wåhlberg, as stated in different interviews before, will take some time off to focus on his education before resuming his competitive career in Dota, but he will still remain with the team.

 
Working with Puppey over this year has been a great experience, one I will value for the remainder of my career and I hope that s4 finds the team mates he is looking for that will channel his inner beast mode pushing him to his full potential

Team Secret didn’t announce more plans for their future but their coach Theeban "1437" Siva added in his stream that Kuro "KuroKy" Salehi Takhasomi and Adrian "FATA" Trinks will form their own team. Instead he is still not sure if Gustav "s4" Magnusson will remain with Secret or join his old friends from Alliance. The later possibility has been repeated also by Vitalii “v1lat” Volochai on his twitter. 1437 finally explained that Team Secret won’t disappear but will be remade.

Team Zenith have just shared a post on their Facebook page announcing the Armaggeddon SEAC Singapore Qualifiers playoffs, which is featuring a team that includes the legendary Singaporean player hyhy. Since TI2 he has not played competitive DOTA 2, but it now appears that he is making a return to the scene. 

The teams mentioned in the post are The Singapore Rejects an
d Team ABC. Team ABC consists of hyhy, xy-, ponlo, tudi and BROTHER BEAR while the Singapore Rejects are made up of Ysaera, Sky Ferreria, xfreedom, chains and lsmurf. 

hyhy was featured in the documentary made by Valve 'Free to Play', which followed his story during TI1. The 2011 tournament is still his best finish to date, placing 3rd with his Singaporean team Scythe Gaming. He has been noticeably absent since The International 2012, most likely due to pressures from his parents and schoolwork that was covered in Valve's documentary. 

It looks like hyhy will make a return to pro DOTA 2 with this new team, which will be good news to many Singaporean DOTA 2 fans.
