In Pokémon GO, trainers are currently puzzling over the new research “Ghost in the Machine.” It was only briefly available, but it looks like bonuses will be coming soon.
What is the “Ghost in the Machine” in Pokémon GO? Some trainers temporarily found new special research available in their game. It is called “Ghost in the Machine” and only included a single step.
The step was: “Catch me if you can,” with a small text emoji behind it. As a reward, 30 candies for a Pokémon that can only be recognized as a silhouette were offered. Additionally, the reward included:
479 Stardust
479 XP
Pokémon encounter
Additionally, a part of a code was displayed at the bottom, the first four digits of which were “0HY0.” The rest is still hidden.
Several trainers shared images of the research on social media, including on the subreddit “TheSilphRoad” for Pokémon GO:

In the subreddit “TheSilphRoad,” trainers discuss the research
Now the research has disappeared again. Whether it was intended as a teaser or whether it was an accidentally premature release is unclear. However, there is already a relatively clear direction for how the research could proceed.
When can you complete “Catch me if you can”?
Which Pokémon is this actually about? If you look at the silhouette of the monster, it quickly becomes clear that it is Rotom. This also fits with the XP and Stardust since it has Pokédex number 479.
This is what Rotom looks like Image source: pokemon.com
How does the research continue? Over the weekend, on February 17th and 18th, it is expected to continue. The Sinnoh Tour will take place in its local variant in Los Angeles. One of the gameplay features is called “A Paranormal Puzzle.”
Trainers are supposed to work together in Los Angeles to uncover a secret code that brings a Rotom encounter. Once the trainers have deciphered the code, players worldwide will be able to redeem it.

So: Keep your eyes open this weekend. The code with which you can get Rotom should come. As soon as it is known, we will keep you updated here.
Destiny 2 is an expensive hobby, and those who don’t have the necessary funds for the DLCs will quickly be excluded from new content. That’s why there is now a Humble Bundle on Steam, where you can grab 6 important DLCs at a bargain price.
What kind of bundle is this? Humble Bundle is a site where you can often find deals on game or expansion packages for Steam at very low prices. This time, there is a bundle for Destiny 2 with 6 important DLCs (via humblebundle.com). The following are offered:
Lightfall
The Witch Queen
30th Anniversary
Beyond Light
Shadowkeep
Forsaken Pack
If you were to purchase all DLCs without the Humble Bundle, you would end up with a total of about 180 €. However, with this promotion, your total is only 20 €. That’s a real bargain, but is the bundle worth it? We’ll show you.

If you’ve always wanted to experience Destiny 2 and its story, now is the perfect time to take advantage. The bundle gives you many items like armor, weapons, and Exotics to chase after.
With the Humble Bundle, you have access to Xur’s Treasure Vault
Furthermore, 4 DLCs offer a campaign that can be tackled solo or in a group – raids are included as well. The Forsaken Pack gives you old Exotics, a raid, and a dungeon from a bygone era.
Finally, with the 30th Anniversary, you can participate in a deadly game show and win prizes from a spectral horse. All DLCs provide content that can entertain you for up to 100 hours if you dive deep into Destiny 2.
Things to consider: Destiny 2 is currently not in a good place. The latest DLC “Lightfall” was not well-received by the community. The story left a heavy cliffhanger, and the community is unsure if the loot shooter will continue to exist after the last DLC “The Final Form” is released.
Additionally, no seasons are included in the Humble Bundle. So, if you want to play the last season of Lightfall, you will need to purchase it separately. You don’t have to worry about sunsetting, as the campaigns, armor, and weapons, as well as activities for the major DLCs will remain. Only old activities from past seasons will be placed in the content vault.
What do you think of the price of the 6 DLCs? Do you think it’s a bargain, or would you advise newcomers against purchasing? Let us know in the comments! Only then will you gain access to cosmetic items, weapons, and an Exotic.
A player has ordered a new AMD graphics card for his computer. But the graphics card ends up in pouring rain. So what alternatives are there to ensure that my package from Amazon doesn’t end up in the rain or in my neighbor’s flowerbed?
A user has ordered a new graphics card. On Reddit, he complains that the graphics card was delivered without packaging and was simply left in the rain. Accordingly, the package looks like it now.
Many people from the community are surprised and show little understanding for this action. Because in the worst case, the graphics card could have been damaged, making it unusable.
Some are also warning him and pointing out that he should send the graphics card back immediately, as he cannot be sure whether the GPU even works. But are there any ways to prevent such a delivery in the rain?
Packstation, Hermes or Amazon packaging as an alternative
Select Amazon packaging: If you want to have the package delivered by Amazon, we recommend choosing Amazon packaging. You do this directly at the time of ordering. To do this, scroll all the way down, where you will find the corresponding button. By default, Amazon sends your package in the manufacturer’s packaging.
During the ordering process, you often have two options at checkout when ordering a package:
Reduce packaging, send in the manufacturer’s packaging.
With Amazon packaging, the contents remain hidden.
If you choose the second option (Amazon packaging), your shipment will arrive in one of Amazon’s standard boxes. This way, other people cannot see what you have ordered, and there is also a little bit more minimal protection when Amazon secures the package properly. However, Amazon can still leave the package at your doorstep if you do not set any other shipping.
You can also choose another shipping method in addition to Amazon packaging. We will explain these to you now. All possible options are also listed by Amazon itself.
DHL as an option: Instead of leaving the shipping to Amazon, you can now have many packages sent to a pack station with DHL. This may take a day longer, but in the case of valuable items, it is the better option than if valuable components end up in the rain or on the street. The pack station is usually secured. Disadvantage: Some shipments, such as those from third parties or very large devices, cannot be sent or forwarded to the pack station.
Hermes as an alternative: Another option is to choose a Hermes package shop. Here, the package will be delivered to the respective package shop. The disadvantage: You can only pick up your package when the shop or business with Hermes is open.
Amazon Locker as an option: A third option is also so-called Amazon lockers: These are pack stations that are exclusively supplied by Amazon. Usually, you don’t have to pay anything extra if you have the package delivered to a package shop or to an Amazon or DHL pack station. The disadvantage, however, is that you have to have an Amazon locker nearby. Such lockers are increasingly found in large cities, but much rarer in small towns and villages.
What does all this bring? With all the alternatives, you have the advantage that the package does not end up on the street or in front of your door, where it can either be soaked by rain or taken by strangers.
The disadvantage, however, is always that the shipping takes a day longer than if you were to have Amazon deliver directly to you. No option is perfect.
More on Amazon: On Amazon, you will always find many too cheap offers for graphics cards and other expensive hardware. A player has now taken the liberty of visiting the address of a possible scammer. And was not surprised to find that there was no company at that location.
The Season Pass in EA FC 24 with its associated objectives, through which you can unlock stadium items, players, and packs, has long been a staple in Ultimate Team. Now there is even a way to get to the coveted rewards even faster. We will show you how to gain an advantage for the new season with a simple method.
Here is the situation:
On Thursday, February 15 at 8:59 AM, the current season “Fanfare 1” in FC 24 Ultimate Team ends. At the same time, some of the existing objectives will also expire.
This includes the “UEFA Tour,” the “Bonus Task,” as well as the “Weekly Themed Teams” under the Live tabs, and the “Daily Goals” and “Weekly Goals” from the Seasonal tab.
Immediately afterwards, EA Sports will release the new season, including a completely revamped Season Pass, which will likely come with 20 levels again. To unlock each reward, 20,000 XP will be needed.
So that missing a task does not automatically mean that the Season Pass cannot be completed, the publisher provides more than the required points over the course of a season.
Diligent players may have already completed the currently available pass, even though some tasks have not yet been completed. For those who are lagging behind, EA has now released a strong XP boost that can be easily unlocked.
To ensure that you do not waste this additional XP, we will show you how to transfer it to the new season with a trick.
Using Additional XP Wisely – How to Perfectly Start the New Season of FC 24 Ultimate Team
This is how the method works: If you have not fully completed one of the tasks mentioned above, you can transfer the reward XP to the new season. This way, you will start with a small boost.
It is important that you complete the tasks before the current season ends but do not collect the rewards!
When you log into your console at the start of the new season, you will receive all the earned packs, coins, etc., along with the experience points. This will unlock the first levels for you.
At this point, it should be mentioned that the trick has worked in the past several times. However, we cannot provide a 100% guarantee.

What you should pay attention to: The recently released “Bonus Task” is particularly suitable for this method. To receive the group bonus here, you simply need to complete two matches in any game mode to unlock 4000 XP at once.
Since 1000 XP is required for each level since the overhaul of the Season Pass, you can already complete four levels with just one task. In total, up to seven levels are possible, provided you have not already completed tasks that currently earn you XP.
There is a special showcase today in Pokémon GO. We explain how you can win it.
What is a showcase? A showcase is a competition for your Pokémon, without them battling each other. Instead, other characteristics such as size or weight are crucial to win this competition.
Normally, a showcase allows a few different Pokémon species or just a single one to participate. But today there is a very special showcase where virtually any Pokémon can take part.
Start video

Any Pokémon is allowed as long as it is a Best Buddy
Which Pokémon are allowed in the showcase? In today’s showcase, all Pokémon are allowed. The only requirement is that the Pokémon you want to participate with has achieved the Best Buddy status. To do this, you need to earn 70 hearts with your Pokémon.
How does the showcase work? The showcase will run only today, on February 14, 2024, from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM. To win the showcase, the size of the Pokémon is decisive. The largest Pokémon wins.
Which Pokémon are best for the showcase? Since the size of the Pokémon is crucial, you should go for Pokémon that are inherently very large. Ideally, the Pokémon also have XXL status. A user on Reddit has published a graphic listing the best Pokémon including their maximum size. The following Pokémon are particularly useful for the showcase:
If you have these Pokémon as Best Buddies, you have a good chance of performing well in the showcase.
What do you think about this special showcase? Do you have Pokémon with which you’ll perform well here? Or are you less interested in showcases in Pokémon GO? Feel free to share your opinion in the comments. You can also find an overview of the events in February 2024 in Pokémon GO on our site.

The MMORPG Throne and Liberty was released in South Korea at the end of 2023. The rest of the world still has to wait a bit. At an investor meeting, the responsible development team from NCSoft presented its financial results for the last fiscal year and revealed the status of the release.
What is the current status of the release of Throne and Liberty?
The MMORPG has been available in South Korea since December 7, 2023. According to NCSoft, Throne and Liberty is expected to be released in early 2024 in the rest of the world.
As the responsible parties consider the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S versions essential for the European market, initial rumors arose that the release of Throne and Liberty could be postponed.
In a recent meeting, some analysts were able to ask questions to the executives of NCSoft. An update regarding the release of the MMORPG was provided, which could possibly indicate a delay.
Throne and Liberty held a special event:
Start video
Throne and Liberty – This is how the first fortress battle went
Throne and Liberty will still be released in 2024, but…
When will Throne and Liberty be released? During the conversation, NCSoft was asked about how the team is handling the disappointing player numbers of Throne and Liberty. The analyst wanted to know if the numbers would affect the global release of the game.
According to NCSoft, the MMORPG is still set to release in 2024:
We have confirmed that the expectations of Western users regarding the provision of domestic services are growing and growing. Thus, nothing changes about the release this year. As you know, Amazon is responsible for the release. Therefore, Amazon will examine competing works in terms of marketing strategy, make a decision, and announce it.
This, however, means that the release may have been internally postponed. NCSoft no longer speaks of early 2024 but rather of the entire year as a possible release period. It could, therefore, be that Throne and Liberty will only be released in Europe at the end of 2024.
NCSoft also mentioned that competing games will be examined. This is to prevent the MMORPG from being released at the same time as other titles, thereby winning fewer players.
Thus, Amazon must carefully watch when the individual expansions are released. This way, they can determine the perfect time to release Throne and Liberty in Europe.
It will therefore take some time before we learn the final release date of Throne and Liberty for the West. The team may be waiting until the release dates of other MMORPGs are finalized.
Are you fans of open-world games with a lot of grind? Or do you prefer to relax with a good puzzle game? Islands of Insight has both for you. MeinMMO author Linda Baumgartl has tested how well the mix works.
As a big fan of survival games, I can rarely say no to exploration tours in an open world. My favorites include games like Conan Exiles or Valheim. I have yet to find my way to puzzle games more often. I enjoy solving Sudokus or Nonograms in analog form. I have now spent about 10 hours in Islands of Insight, and I was positively surprised.
What kind of game is this? Islands of Insight is a puzzle game where you embark on a peaceful journey of discovery in an open world as a Seeker. There are over 10,000 puzzles to find and solve on floating islands.
For this, the developer studio Lunarch Studios has teamed up with what they claim are the best puzzle designers in the world to continually surprise players across 24 puzzle categories.
Islands of Insight will be released on February 13 on Steam. You can get a first impression from the trailer:

Island of Insight Date Reveal Trailer
A Relaxed World Full of Puzzles
At the beginning of Islands of Insight, you start classically with character creation. While there aren’t too many options, there are a few nice features, such as magical body decorations or a colorful radiant aura.
This already showcases the visual style that awaits you in the open world. Everything feels ancient, imaginative, and almost divine. Overall, as a fan of mythologically-inspired fantasy, I really like the look and theme of the game.
The landscape appears very idyllic yet interesting. In total, there are five biomes that can be unlocked gradually. Especially when gliding through the air, I continually discover intriguing structures in the background, such as a massive pyramid that inspires my exploration.
Already on the first exploration tour, it becomes clear that Islands of Insight aims to provide a very relaxing gaming experience. There is no stamina consumption, fall damage, or anything similar. Overall, the game refrains from “punishing” the player for anything. This makes the game very accessible for beginners, as there is no worry about negative consequences.
In the character editor, my figure gets cool body decorations.My character glides elegantly over the landscape.I discover interesting points, especially from the air.There is much to discover even in the first area.
Where are the puzzles? You will find small brain teasers everywhere in the world of Islands of Insight.
The puzzles in the main areas refresh over time. So there is always something new to do.
The campaign consists of over 20 enclaves – these are separate areas where fixed tasks await you. By completing these enclaves, you can unlock new puzzle types.
There are also quests that can guide you. However, it is not necessary to adhere to a fixed order. You can tackle the tasks you feel like.
In Islands of Insight, you are not alone in the game world. It is actually an MMO. In the shared world, you can interact with other players, and thus perhaps even receive help with one or the other puzzle.
Diverse Puzzles Following Clear Rules
What I particularly like about Islands of Insight is the variety of brain teasers.
At the same time, I was also the most concerned here. Because my fuse for puzzle segments in computer games is usually very short. I quickly get frustrated when I don’t understand what the game wants from me. I often end up searching for the solution online. I can reassure anyone who feels similarly.
The puzzles in Islands of Insight are really well designed.
The game gently introduces each new type of puzzle at first. The basic concept is clarified in very simple levels. After that, the level slowly increases.
The difficulty lies less in figuring out what you need to do. There are often clear “rules” that you then need to work with.
The challenges are really diverse. There are classic logic puzzles, perspective puzzles, mazes, small obstacle courses, and much more.
Connecting all the dark areas is still quite simple here.However, new rules keep getting added that are also combined later.Hit all the golden rings, but avoid the purple one – a matter of perspective.
I can best compare the feel of the game to solving Sudokus. What do I mean by that?
The rules are clear – yet you can still get pretty involved in solving.
I’m never forced to complete a puzzle. If I want, I can simply flip to the next page, or look for a new puzzle in the game world. This prevents frustration.
Still, I have the ambition to arrive at the solution. “It can’t be that hard…”.
This Sudoku feeling mixes Islands of Insight with classic gaming elements: the exploration of an open-world, leveling, and grinding.
This feels familiar: Leveling and Grinding
A mechanism that connects many gaming genres is leveling up your character. In puzzle games, I find it unfortunate that this element is often neglected. Not so with Islands of Insight: the game makes use of typical progression mechanics that every gamer will find familiar.
In a skill tree, new abilities can be unlocked. These improve, for example, your movement options, give you more experience when solving certain puzzles, or even make the puzzling itself more enjoyable.
You can also level up your mastery in certain types of puzzles. This primarily unlocks new cosmetic items for your character.
To unlock skills and additional cosmetic items, you need a currency called Sparks. You can earn these by diligently solving puzzles.
First, I can learn a double jump.There are a total of 24 puzzle categories to master.
Does it work? The mix of solved puzzles and received rewards appeals to my reward system multiple times. This may sound simple, but it is effective nonetheless. This way, I always feel good about achieving something.
Players who like to explore everything to 100% can grind in Islands of Insight to their heart’s content. Because it’s not just about completing puzzles in a blunt sequence. You also need to find the numerous puzzles first. For example, once you solve all the puzzles in a category in a specific area, another reward awaits.
However, what personally diminishes the feeling of achievement for me are primarily two points:
Right at the beginning, I look like a powerful, magical being. This reduces my motivation to unlock new cosmetic items. As a survival fan, I would have been more engaged with a visual progression – starting in rags and unlocking increasingly prettier things.
I never have a real necessity to increase my level. While in another game I might urgently want to reach level 35 to finally defeat that one boss, I can shape my path quite freely in Islands of Insight. Sure, I have to unlock regions first. But whether I do that at level 2 or 20 doesn’t matter.
Ultimately, these are design decisions that make the game more accessible and relaxed. The main focus is clearly on actually solving the puzzles and providing a cozy gaming experience. Although the leveling system does not motivate me as much as in other games, it is still a nice addition to the puzzle experience.
Anyone looking for a relaxing puzzle game that surprises with innovative challenges and ideas and inspires the desire to explore is exactly right with Islands of Insight.
Experienced gamers can rediscover familiar mechanics. But the game is also very accessible for beginners, as it has no punishing mechanics and allows the player to progress at their own pace.
In addition to a glider and the improvement for the gate, the update also brought a binoculars. We show you how to craft and use it properly.
Finding the binoculars in Sons of the Forest
Where can you find the binoculars? You can find the binoculars in the northwest of the map on the beach. There are several red kayaks on the sand, and the binoculars are on one of these kayaks. Next to it, there is also plenty of loot like provisions, wire, and the camouflage suit for Virginia.
If you have trouble finding the kayaks, you can orient yourself by a cave nearby. The cave is also located on the beach in the northwest of the map and is an important part of progression in Sons of the Forest. In the cave, you will find the diving gear needed for the acquisition of the shovel.
In the following images, you can see the location of the binoculars on the map, the cave as a landmark, and the red kayak on which the binoculars are located:
Location of the binoculars on the GPSThe red kayak on which the binoculars can be foundThe location of the binoculars on the map via mapgenie.io
Using the binoculars in Sons of the Forest
How to use the binoculars? In the wilderness of Sons of the Forest, there are many trees and bushes that obstruct your view. To have an ideal overview, it is advisable to combine the binoculars with a lookout tower or similar.
To use the binoculars, you only need to equip them in your inventory. In your expanded inventory, you can find it directly under the backpack, to the right of your GPS:
Additionally, since the second hotfix of Sons of the Forest, you can also assign the binoculars to a hotkey and equip them with a single keystroke. Which key you use for this is up to you.
Those playing the “Witch Queen” campaign in Destiny 2 must also use their brains from now on. Bungie has embedded a few little puzzles in the new world that need to be solved. This includes Savathun’s Altar of Reflection. It features several entertaining rune pattern puzzles, and we will tell you how to solve them.
Previously, campaigns in Destiny 2 were just played. The goal was to find and defeat certain enemies to clear the path to the final boss.
In the latest expansion “The Witch Queen,” it is different. The focus is mostly on the Destiny campaign. Bungie has packed not only a lot of engaging story into this DLC but also included small puzzles.
At the Altar of Reflection, players have to solve several tasks, as only with the correct rune pattern can you proceed and access Savathun’s memories.
In the Witch Queen campaign “The Mirror,” you encounter the “Altar of Reflection” for the first time and face the rune pattern.
Players must solve more puzzles in the weekly quests “Altar of Reflection: Catalyst,” “Altar of Reflection: Insight,” “Altar of Reflection: Choice,” and “Altar of Reflection: Pact.”
It looks complex until you get the hang of it.
How do you find the way to the Altar of Reflection? During the campaign mission and also in later quests, the way to the Altar of Reflection is self-explanatory. For example, when you reach step 8, you can mark the quest, and your ghost will lead you the right way. Just follow the marker in the game. Otherwise, you can also see the missions for the Altars of Reflection on the map.
Once you’ve reached the objective of the sub-task “Memories of Ruin,” you can pass through the portal. You will be teleported to a bright blue room. This is the ante-room to the Altar of Reflection, and before you, you can already see a table with many runes. You need to solve the puzzle; otherwise, the entrance remains closed.

How to solve the rune pattern puzzles at the Altar of Reflection
The Hive runes are the same ones that players already know from the dungeon “Pit of Heresy.” The rune puzzle is not always the same, so you can’t just memorize the solution. The stone tablet always shows a total of 8 columns.
Each column contains 5 rows with different Hive runes.
You can shoot the rows, but you must make sure that they are the correct ones.
If you shoot incorrectly, the puzzle resets.
To crack the puzzle, you just need to take a close look at the Hive rune rows. You need to figure out three rows of runes that do not match the rest and are different. In our example, columns 3, 6, and 7 did not match the rest of the pattern.
The solution is simple when you know what to look for.
So always shoot the differing rune rows. If done correctly, a green round rune symbol will appear above the rune wall, and you will receive the message “Test completed. The next test begins.”
What you should also keep in mind: Of course, you can also shoot the wall with a rocket launcher and hope for a lot of luck. But it is better to take weapons with less power for a more delicate shooting of the rune rows.
How to solve the rune pattern “Altar of Reflection“: Catalyst”
Even in the later weekly quest: “Complete Altars of Reflection,” the mechanics for the runes remain the same at first. Currently, there are four of these that grant you Powerful Gear Level 1.
Altar of Reflection: Catalyst
Altar of Reflection: Insight
Altar of Reflection: Choice
Altar of Reflection: Pact
For Part 1, the Catalyst quest, Destiny 2 sends you deep into the “Temple of the Angry” beneath Savathun’s Throne World. As usual, you will see the symbol on the map and you can mark the quest so that the waypoint in the game points you there.
The entrance to the Altar of Reflection: Catalyst
Once in the Temple of the Angry, you will initially encounter a few enemies and a small logo puzzle.
Assemble Savathun’s Logo: You need to reveal glowing symbol pieces of Savathun’s logo with your Deep Sight ability. However, you can only fully recognize the logo if you position yourself correctly. Only when that is accomplished will a signal sound, and a portal will open. Interacting with it will take you directly to the Altar of Reflection.
Now you are back in the light blue room with the rune patterns. However, once you understand the principle with the rune rows, you should also be able to solve this new quest task quickly.
The only difference for “Catalyst” is that you now have to shoot not only the rune wall shown above but also several rune rows on different pillars. If your choice is correct, the green symbol will appear above the row you shot. Once you have shot all the incorrect rows, the way to the next memory is open to you.
Now, pillars with rune patterns are also marked, which you must also shoot.
How to solve the rune pattern “Altar of Reflection“: Insight”
The quest “Insight” at the Altar of Reflection is somewhat different. Here you must tackle the puzzle “Cursed Pools” and not shoot symbols anymore but rather traverse them. Of course, in the correct order.
How to find the entrance to the “Altar of Reflection: Insight”: This time, the puzzle hides in the middle of the Lost Sector “Tomb” in the Fluorescent Canal of Savathun’s Throne World. You will again face the known logo task. So clear the enemies out of the way and reassemble Savathun’s logo. Then the portal will appear. Interact with it, and you will be teleported again to the Altar of Reflection.
Once you arrive there, look around. The rune wall no longer shows columns with runes but instead four large round rune fields. Additionally, if you look around, you will recognize several large rune fields scattered around the room.
The rune tablet now displays four large Hive runes.
In the room, you will also see several rune symbols with green fields underneath.
How does the puzzle “Insight” work? Look closely at the runes on the rune wall and remember the order. Then you simply traverse them (from left to right) in the room.
You need to repeat this once more, and the way, in the form of a portal, will be clear again. But be careful: One of Savathun’s Lightbearers is already waiting for you there.
How to solve the rune pattern “Altar of Reflection“: Choice”
Uncover more of Savathun’s memories: After you have solved the first Altars of Reflection rune puzzles, you can then also complete “Altar of Reflection: Choice” and “Altar of Reflection: Pact” and complete the triumph “Two Lies, Two Truths” (Throne World > World > Secrets).
The already known rune puzzles from “Altar of Reflection: Catalyst” and “Altar of Reflection: Insight” for these two mini-missions are identical, so you only need to repeat the mechanics.
How did you find the puzzles? Did you come to the solution quickly, or could it have been more difficult? How do you like being a clairvoyant detective who constantly has to solve little puzzles? Do you want more of that? Then let us know.
By the way: The Altar of Reflection is not the only source of powerful loot. An old raid could also bring you unexpected loot luck right now. Provided you hurry with it.
Various players reported that they received a ban for team shooting in Counter-Strike 2 even though no teammates were nearby.
What is the deal with the ban? For Valve’s tactical shooter Counter-Strike 2, there was a patch on February 13 that fixed a few minor issues and improved the performance of the VOIPs. Unfortunately, the update also introduced a bug that shortly thereafter caused a series of temporary bans.
According to various players reporting on Reddit and X.com, they were kicked from an ongoing match and were temporarily banned for up to 30 minutes. The game then informed them that they had caused too much damage to teammates.
However, the curious thing is that in the players’ videos, it is clear that no teammate was nearby. Instead, the players were shooting normally at an opponent before they were kicked from the match. At that moment, one player was even the only living person on his team. Therefore, friendly fire is excluded.
You can see the clip posted by the player on Reddit here:

A player in the comments on Reddit writes that this even happened to some players in his casual match. This is extremely unusual since there is no team damage in CS2 in casual mode.
Dead teammates absorb your bullets
How does the error occur? What exactly causes the erroneous “team damage” is currently not officially known, but players on social media have a rather concrete theory (via Reddit).
According to this theory, the hitbox of an eliminated teammate remained at the location of their death and was hit by bullets intended for an opponent behind it. The game classified hits on the still present but invisible hitbox as team damage and imposed corresponding penalties.
In simpler terms: The players were banned because they hit the “ghosts” of their dead friends.

Counter-Strike 2: Valve once again impresses with the launch trailer
Is the bug still in the game or has it been fixed? Some time after the patch that introduced the bug, there was a new, small update for CS2. Many players are confident that the error has been fixed as a result.
However, there has been no official confirmation from Valve that the bug has been fixed.
If you suddenly receive a temporary ban for causing too much team damage after shooting at an opponent, now you know why.
Counter-Strike 2 has continually struggled with bugs and other issues since its release in September 2023. However, one game bug was particularly absurd: the Michael Jackson peek, in which the character assumed a very unnatural body posture reminiscent of Michael Jackson’s performance of the song “Smooth Criminal”.
In Sons of the Forest there is now a glider. We at MeinMMO show you where to find it and how to use it.
The survival hit Sons of the Forest received its first major content update on March 9, 2023. This update includes a binocular and a glider that you can use to travel the map. If you don’t know where to find the glider, you can find all the necessary info here to glide through the map after all.
Find the Glider in Sons of the Forest
Where can you find the glider? In the middle of the map of Sons of the Forest, there is a snowy mountain landscape. There you will find the black glider on the mountain at a slope.
Next to the glider, there is also a camp with orange tents where you can save and sleep. The descent is on the east side of the mountain.
For rough orientation, you can use the cave where you can find the shovel. However, from the cave, you still need to walk a bit and climb the mountain.
Here you can see the map of Sons of the Forest with the location of the glider:
How do you use the glider? The glider is a portable object that you cannot store in your inventory. As long as you hold it in your hands, you can use it. To do this, you need to press the interaction key.
How do you fly with the glider? The travel device cannot fly on its own; it can only glide. You need to equip the glider on a slope and jump off from there. The slope where you find the glider is ideal for this.
However, keep in mind that you cannot equip your GPS while gliding. So make sure to check the map beforehand and decide which direction you want to fly.
Here is a summary of the glider controls:
When you are in the air with the glider, tilt it down with the W key. This will increase your speed and put you in a descent.
If you press the S key, the glider tilts up and slows down its speed somewhat. This allows you to counteract a potential descent.
Since the glider only glides and cannot fly, it is not possible to gain altitude while in the air with it.
If you want to land with the glider, you should avoid trees and similar obstacles. If you collide with something, you will drop the glider, and depending on the height, you may suffer considerable fall damage that can even kill you. Try to always find a clear area to land if possible.
To land with the glider more precisely, press the S key and look up as far as possible. You will now barely move forward and will be very slow. This way, you can glide to the ground gently, similar to using a parachute.
If you have landed or crashed with the glider – and survived – you can still carry it with you. Just go back to the glider and equip it again. However, even while carrying the glider, you will drop it if you touch a tree or something similar.

5 Tips for a Good Start in Sons of the Forest
Does the glider despawn? In our tests, the glider did not despawn after we collected it once. It has always stayed where we left it.
We tested a possible despawn in the following situations:
Distance – We moved far enough away from the glider that it was no longer rendered. When we subsequently returned to the position where we left the glider, or reentered the render distance, it was still there.
We were also able to carry the glider to our camp and go to sleep. After the night, it was still in our camp.
Even after logging back in, after leaving the server or closing the game, the glider was at the spot where we left it before logging out.
The first update of Sons of the Forest is a success, and the new features like the glider and binoculars are well received by players:
As we age, we overlook small details in World of Warcraft. Therefore, the guild of MeinMMO demon Cortyn swears by a certain addon.
If you are not playing a “3-button specialization” in World of Warcraft, it can get hectic in difficult raids or high-level “Mythic+” dungeons. A lot of warnings from various addons on the screen, colorful spell effects from team members, and dangerous areas on the ground can make it easy to lose track and overlook one small detail completely – the mouse cursor.
What is the problem? In World of Warcraft, the cursor is replaced by a metallic hand that has existed since the early Warcraft games and has only been adjusted a few times in its resolution. While it fits wonderfully with the game, it can easily get lost in the chaos of intense battles – and then the panic sets in as you click on the wrong interface elements or miss your chance.
Which addon fixes this? We’re talking about the small interface extension “CursorTrail,” which allows you to customize your mouse cursor in World of Warcraft. You can download the addon on CurseForge. The main task of the addon is to make your cursor more easily noticeable through various effects. For example, you can place an additional shape under your cursor, such as a conspicuous circle or different spell effects.
In the game, you can open the addon after installation with the command /ct.
Many settings allow for precise cursor customization.
If you prefer something a bit more “fancy”, you can also give the cursor a tail so you can better follow its movement. There are also numerous effects to choose from, many of which are already familiar from World of Warcraft – such as the typical lightning effect or a rainbow.
In addition to dozens of effects, you can also precisely adjust the strength of each option to create a cursor tail that is not too intrusive and annoying, but still noticeable enough that you never lose sight of the mouse in the heat of battle. For instance, you can set the effect to only be active while you are in combat or to be disabled while you are moving the camera with the mouse.
“I find it really helpful when I have to run a 20-man raid while still paying attention to ground effects.”
When I responded with “Quote: Our guild grandma”, I only got a snarky reply of “Your mom is a guild grandma” back. Well. You can’t always win.
And even though I like to poke fun at the addon a bit – it is definitely useful for anyone who works with “Mouseover macros” – so in most cases, for healers.
League of Legends has various skin series, such as Porcelain, High Noon, or Star Guardian. However, some players are frustrated that a certain champion seems to get younger with each new skin.
Which champion is it about? Soon, new Porcelain skins will be available in League of Legends, just as there are already skins in this series for characters like Kindred and Lux. However, players have noticed something strange about it, or rather, about a specific champion: The talk is about Darius.
With Patch 14.4, the new Porcelain skins are supposed to come, including one for Darius. On the platform Reddit, an obvious Darius fan expressed his dissatisfaction. In his opinion, Riot Games seems to have a tendency to make Darius younger with each fresh skin.

Stop making Darius younger!
What is being criticized? NimblecloudsArt refers to the original splash art of Darius, which according to him showed an experienced and tough general with an angry expression, a gray strand of hair, and damaged armor.

With the newest skins, he argues, not only has his appearance changed, but also his identity and character traits. It is criticized that Darius is no longer the tough, experienced general, but rather seems like an overly ambitious and arrogant teenager.

How does the community react? Under the post, many comments are accumulating, and we’ve summarized a few for you:
Raigheb writes: If you asked every single Darius player what skin series they would like a skin from, not a single one would ever say: Porcelain!
TheLadForTheJob writes: Just use the standard skin, bro.
PorkyMan12 writes: Just 5 more skins and Darius will be 12 years old.
NonTokenisableFungi writes: Look what they did to Xin Zhao. Anime guy in all his splash arts, but in-game he still looks like a slightly depressed middle-aged man as his story prescribes.
Cirenione writes: Well, skins are often a reinterpretation of a champion. In this case, Darius as a champion in his base form remains the same, and the skin represents him in his younger form in an alternate universe.[…]
Fyzz51: Champions are not necessarily the same age in different skins, and that has been the case for some time.[…]
valraven38: Can we stop taking skins so seriously? They are supposed to be like alternate universes or variations and have no impact on the champions themselves.[…]
What else is he criticizing? The criticism of the new skins goes even further. NimblecloudsArt questions the logic behind skins like Porcelain Darius and Lunar Beast Darius and wonders why Darius suddenly wears armor in a porcelain style or tech sneakers. For some fans, these designs seem to distort the character of Darius, and they believe they do not fit the original conception of the champion.
It is emphasized that while he is glad Darius is getting new skins and attention from Riot Games, he wishes that Riot Games would adhere more to his character fantasy as a veteran general.

We provide you with a guide on where you can find the shotgun in Sons of the Forest and what the requirements are for the weapon.
The shotgun is one of the 30 weapons that you can obtain in the survival hit Sons of the Forest. It is particularly effective at short distances to the target.
Where can I find the shotgun?
The shotgun is located in a grave in the northwest of the map.
How do I find the shotgun? Go to the indicated point on the map. There you will find a grave.
Use the wooden cross to locate the exact spot. Dig up the grave until you encounter a corpse in the coffin. This corpse is holding the shotgun, which you can easily take.
Additionally, you can obtain a GPS beacon from the corpse.
What are the requirements for the shotgun? Since you need to dig up a grave, you will first need the shovel to get the weapon.
Here you can find a guide on how to get the shovel:
What ammunition do I need for the shotgun? For the shotgun, you will need either buckshot or slugs.
You can change the type of ammunition by aiming the weapon barrel downwards and then pressing “R”.
Where can I find ammunition for the shotgun? The ammunition for the weapon can be found in crates scattered throughout the game world of Sons of the Forest. Right at the crash site, you can collect some ammunition for the weapon from the crates.
Currently, you cannot craft shotgun ammunition yourself.
Cupidos debuts on February 14 in the top raids of Pokémon GO. Is it worth catching? All information about the event.
What kind of Pokémon is this? Cupidos is a legendary Pokémon, categorized among the “forces of nature” like Boreos, Voltolos, and Demeteros. It has a spirit form and an incarnate form. This incarnate form is now appearing in Pokémon GO.
How to get Cupidos? The Pokémon will appear as part of the “Carnival of Love” on Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2024, in Pokémon GO. But it won’t be easy to obtain, as it will only appear in top raids and only at specific times.
You can encounter it at the following times:
Between 12:00 and 13:00
Between 13:00 and 14:00
Between 17:00 and 18:00
Between 18:00 and 19:00
Note: A top raid boss can reportedly only be challenged for 30 minutes once it has hatched. However, in other time zones where players have already been able to play, trainers are reporting 45 minutes. It remains to be seen how it will be here. The eggs will appear 24 hours before the start at the respective gyms, so you can plan your raid as soon as you find a corresponding top raid egg.
Why will this be difficult? Top raids are among the toughest challenges in Pokémon GO. They can only be challenged on-site, so remote raids are not an option. Additionally, they require many trainers to defeat the boss.

Is the top raid against Cupidos worth it?
How to defeat Cupidos? The monster belongs to the Fairy and Flying types, making it susceptible to attacks of the Poison, Rock, Electric, Ice, and Steel types. You should therefore have corresponding counters ready. It may also be worth using party play bonuses to use more powerful charged attacks.
Additionally, don’t plan with too few trainers: Experience from past top raids shows that you should plan with at least four, preferably more trainers.
Is Cupidos worth it? No matter how challenging the raid may be and how inconvenient the timing might be for some: If you find the time and a potentially sufficiently large group for the raid, the fight can be worthwhile.
Because Cupidos is expected to be one of the best Fairy attackers in Pokémon GO, which is useful against dragons in raids, for example. Additionally, it is likely to find a place in PvP to be an effective fighter. Initial stats and moves for Cupidos have already been shared by trainers (via reddit).
Apart from the strength of the monster, the raid can also be worthwhile for collectors since it’s unclear when Cupidos will return. Lastly, after defeating Cupidos in the top raid, you will also receive 30 minutes of additional Fairy and Flying spawns around the gym. This includes, among others:

How did Fibi react to his statement? Fibi then asked him about his age. After Nick explained that he was 20 years old and still wrote his phone number in the donation, Fibi was shocked.
She couldn’t believe that someone his age would carelessly expose his personal information. With a hint of disbelief in her voice, she asked again: “And you write your number on the internet at 20?” Nick, apparently unfazed by her concerns, calmly explained that he believed in the good.
Fibi could not hide her astonishment and shook her head in disbelief. After a moment of silence, she added that she actually just wanted to check in briefly, but unfortunately, nothing could come of it between them.
This clear statement seemed to surprise Nick, as he asked in disbelief: “What?” Fibi then calmly explained that money isn’t everything.
How did the community react to the situation? The reactions of the community to this unusual conversation were varied and reflected different opinions and perspectives. Some viewers admired Nick’s courage and initiative, while others criticized Fibi for even responding to the call.

5 Tips for a Good Start in Sons of the Forest
Where can I find the keycards?
You can find the three keycards in bunkers and caves within the map of Sons of the Forest. We have embedded an interactive map here and noted the corresponding locations for each keycard.
Maintenance keycard: Yellow circle
VIP keycard: Green circle
Guest keycard: Red circle
The locations where you can find keycards – Map source: mapgenie.io
Note that you need to visit the keycards in this order, as you will need the previously obtained cards for the last two bunkers.
How do I find the maintenance keycard? You will need a shovel for this keycard. Go to the point at the top left of the map.
If you dig there, you will uncover a hatch that represents access to a bunker. Go inside and enter the first room on your right. On a table, you will see a 3D printer. Next to it lies the maintenance keycard.
How do I find the VIP keycard? You will need the maintenance keycard for this keycard. Go to the area at the top left of the map, to the cave. There, you will find a hatch through which you can enter the bunker.
To your right, you will encounter a locked door, which you can open with the previously obtained maintenance keycard. Make your way through the partially flooded bunker until you reach a door on the left side at the end. In this room, you will find the VIP keycard among the monitors.
How do I find the guest keycard? You will need the VIP keycard for this keycard. Walk to the marked cave with it.
Walk to the door that you can open with the VIP keycard. Go up the stairs to a bar. At the back right, the keycard will be on the table.
Last Epoch is a new action RPG on Steam that aims to compete with Diablo 4. It has been in early access since 2019 and is set to release later this month. Even before its release, the developers are celebrating a million units sold with the community.
Which game is it about? Last Epoch is a new action RPG that gives the genre its own time travel twist. Along with Path of Exile and Torchlight, it is one of the best alternatives to Diablo 4.
Since 2019, Last Epoch has been in early access and has secured a score of 85% on Steam. The final release is scheduled for February 21, 2024. But even now, the game can celebrate a special milestone.

Players hope that Last Epoch takes measures for its success
What milestone has Last Epoch achieved? On February 9, 2024, the developers celebrated in the official forum of the game that Last Epoch has already sold 1 million copies even before the release of version 1.0.
In a message, the team thanked all players who tested Last Epoch in early access, explored theories, reported bugs, shared their experiences, and enjoyed it. They want to take time amidst the hard work on the release to share this achievement with the community.
The mentioned players, in turn, respond with congratulations. We have compiled some of the reactions for you:
Irrelevant is optimistic: “At least we know that [Last Epoch] is keeping an eye on the numbers, so we get enough server capacity to cover the initial hype.”
TheRealKraggy thinks: “A truly deserved milestone for an example of the best in ‘early access’ game development that deserves to get even better.”
DrGameDOOM is rather worried: “I hope your servers can handle it because I have a slightly bad feeling that this could be a Wolcen 2.0. So please make sure your servers are ready for it.”
Apparently, some players fear that Last Epoch could face a similar fate as the ARPG Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem. It was released in February 2020 and stormed the Steam charts with up to 127,500 concurrent players. However, it struggled from the beginning with issues and already in March, 95% of the players were gone.
This milestone of one million units sold will likely bring Last Epoch one step closer to its declared goal. Because as Game Director Judd Cobbler recently announced in a press release, the new hack & slay doesn’t just want to fade into obscurity: Steam: Last Epoch wants to become an “action RPG for eternity”

The development of the hit game Dead Cells on Steam will be discontinued after 7 years. The responsible development studios announced this on February 9. However, a former employee suspects it might be a marketing stunt.
Which game is it about? Dead Cells is a stylish action game that combines aspects from various genres: On its Steam page, the game is referred to as “Souls-Lite” and “RogueVania.”
Dead Cells was released in 2018 for PC, Switch, PlayStation, and Xbox, and it received mobile ports for iOS and Android in the following years. On Steam, it enjoys an “Extremely Positive” rating with 97% positive reviews, while the score on Metacritic ranges from 84 to 91 points, depending on the platform.
In an announcement on Steam, Motion Twin stated that they do not want to overextend Dead Cells and risk losing its unique charm.
Co-developer Evil Empire was spun off from Motion Twin in 2019 to take over the further development of Dead Cells, while the original studio focused on their upcoming game Windblown. This project might now also be the reason for the cessation of development.
The studio announced that it is working on “one or two” games (via X).
Ex-developer calls it an “asshole move”
What does the ex-dev say? Sébastien Bernard, former lead designer of Dead Cells, calls the decision of Motion Twin in a post on the Discord server of his studio Deepnight the “worst possible asshole move” against Dead Cells and Evil Empire.
The official statement is total “marketing bullshit,” Bernard continues, revealing that the situation behind the scenes was quite different. He writes: “I could never have imagined that my former co-op studio would consist of such greedy people.”
In a blog post, the developer revisited the announcement of his former studio on February 12 and apologized for the impulsive and harsh words.
According to Bernard, Motion Twin has previously abandoned its loyal player base: When Dead Cells became a surprise hit, they no longer paid attention to the fans of the browser games that the studio had produced earlier.
The developer also claims that while Motion Twin is responsible for the “first million units sold” of Dead Cells, the additional 9 million sales are credited to Evil Empire. The studio has taken over the “hard work” of Motion Twin and kept the game alive for so long.
For this, Bernard continues, Evil Empire has increasingly received recognition as “the true ones responsible” for the success of Dead Cells. He accuses Motion Twin of having now stopped the development for tactical reasons to make room for their new roguelite Windblown. This is a logical marketing stunt.
We have contacted Motion Twin and requested a statement. As soon as we receive their response, we will update this here.

All sources for top loot in Season 23 of Destiny 2
More power level comes automatically: Bungie has eased the power level grind in Destiny 2 some time ago. The hard power cap has remained unchanged at 1,810 for several seasons. This way, no player is forced to achieve peak performances every week but levels up the artifact level automatically in all activities. Nevertheless, there are still a few activities in the game where you can benefit from an artifact level up to +20.
However, if you are currently not yet at the hard cap of 1,810, we have listed the best sources for top loot for you.
This top loot brings your power level up to 1,810:
