Twitch: Papaplatte fails for an hour and a half at the tutorial of a game and would do it again anytime

Kevin “Papaplatte” Teller tried his hand on Twitch in his stream from February 9, 2024, at the Steam game “Contraband Police.” However, even the tutorial proved to be trickier than expected – at least if you just can’t help but attack innocents.

What kind of game is he playing? Contraband Police puts players in the role of a border police officer in a communist country in the 1980s. You are tasked with checking the documents of visitors and deciding on their entry, apprehending smugglers, and, on top of that, stopping the rebels of the “Bloody Fist.”

This whole thing is reminiscent of the “claustrophobic exception-adventure” Papers, Please (via GameStar), but in 3D and with gunfights. Contraband Police was released on March 8, 2023, on Steam and enjoys a rating of “Very Positive” with 95% positive reviews there.

Good reason for Twitch streamer Papaplatte to take a look at the game.

“I’m in the tutorial, bro”

How did it go for Papaplatte? At first, very promising. The streamer masters the first checks brilliantly and ends the day with a “perfect” score before retreating to his trailer for a well-deserved evening off.

But already on the second day, difficulties arise: Papaplatte actually wanted to let the arrested smuggler escape from his cell but accidentally attacks him with his knife. “Bro, I’m in the tutorial,” comments the Twitch streamer on his first “Game Over” screen.

For the next nearly two and a half hours, Papaplatte and his viewers can admire the “Game Lost” title several times while his character repeatedly relives his first days at work, just like in “Groundhog Day.”

Oh, a pitchfork, what do we do with that? First, stab the next best person and promptly get shot, of course. “I won’t kill anyone anymore,” Papaplatte promises regretfully as he starts day 2 again. However, the good intention is quickly forgotten when a trader is actually reckless enough to sell the Twitch streamer a firearm.

“What do we need weapons for?” asks Papaplatte as he shoots the trader. Back to square one. The Twitch streamer announces: “I need to stop messing up, real talk, we’ve been in the tutorial for an hour.” There’s a cut, and in the next scene, Papaplatte beats an innocent driver with a crowbar. Well, maybe next time.

Streamer fails for two and a half hours, fans love it

What does Papaplatte say about the game? After almost two and a half hours, Papaplatte has mastered the tutorial and his first real workday. Satisfied with his performance for the day, he closes Contraband Police and delivers his verdict: It was a lot of fun, would love to do it again.

And the Twitch streamer’s viewers are also enjoying the fun. The highlight reel of the stream is currently ranked second in the trending section for Gaming on YouTube, and in the comments, many fans are calling for more content for Contraband Police. However, some have also expressed sympathy for the chat that had to witness it all live.

No one knows better than Trymacs that Twitch is less about gaming skills and more about entertainment value. He describes himself as a “streamer without skill” and proves this joyfully at every opportunity, such as in the new survival hit Enshrouded:

Sons of the Forest: Regain energy without sleeping – Stay fit anytime

Those who work a lot in Sons of the Forest and are working on the security of their home consume a lot of energy. However, not everyone can or wants to wait for the night to rest.

What is energy? In Sons of the Forest, you have four symbols at the bottom right corner of your screen, directly above the minimap, displaying the physical state of your character. On the far right, there is a symbol that looks like a crescent moon. Around this symbol is a circle, similar to hunger and thirst, indicating how much energy you have left.

If the energy is depleted, you will mainly notice it on your stamina bar. It’s significantly smaller and consumed more quickly when your energy is low.

Once your energy is depleted, the game recommends that you should sleep in a tent or bed. However, this takes several hours.

How do I regenerate energy without sleeping? If you don’t want to sleep in Sons of the Forest or don’t want to wait for night, you can remedy the situation with simple structures.

Simply build a bench or a chair and sit down for a few minutes. This will regenerate your energy while you occupy one of the seating areas.

However, sitting regeneration of your physical fitness takes several minutes, and the in-game time continues to progress. Additionally, you can still be attacked by enemies during this time – a certain MeinMMO author might have experienced going briefly to the kitchen while his character was sitting on the bench and ended up as a cannibal snack.

How do I build a bench or a chair? The building system in Sons of the Forest has two menus:

  • free building
  • building with blueprints

If you want to build a bench or a chair, you need to switch to the blueprint menu. You do this on the keyboard with the X key and with the controller by pressing the square (PlayStation) or X button (Xbox controller).

You can find the furniture pieces under the third point. The wooden chair is on page 1, the bone chair on page 2, and the bench on page 4.

Select the blueprint for the respective structure and place it at your desired location. Then you need to gather the necessary resources for construction:

  • the wooden chair requires 14 sticks
  • the bone chair requires 15 bones and a skull
  • the bench requires 2 logs
Sons of the Forest recipes for the wooden chair, bone chair, and bench

What is the benefit of regenerating energy without sleeping? From our own experiences as children of the forest, there were times when we went to bed too early. This sometimes meant it was still pitch dark when we awoke.

If you still want to build something, your energy is depleted, and it’s too early for bed, then the bench appears to be a sensible alternative. And while you take a break, Kelvin can continue working – unless you have a treehouse. Then you should be careful.

Sons of the Forest already done after 10 hours? 5 things you can still do

Sons of the Forest has been launched in Early Access on Steam and is captivating hundreds of thousands of players. However, if you play purposefully, you can finish it in just 10 hours. What else is there to do? 5 tips for more fun in the Forest.

How long does it take to complete? Sons of the Forest is a survival game with an exploration focus. There is a vast world and deep caves to discover, as well as neighbors to ambush and mutants to annoy.

However, the game can also end quite quickly. If you purposefully explore the correct caves or are constantly exploring without paying attention to other things, you could run out of content in 10 to 15 hours.

But if you take your time, you can easily double that. MeinMMO has therefore prepared 5 tips for you to help you enjoy the Forest adventure a bit longer.

The MeinMMO editorial team also plays Sons of the Forest. You can check out the intro from our video producer Anna in the video:

Sons of the Forest: Fear, Laughter and a Teamkill after 30 Seconds – How Crazy Our First Hours Were

Number 1: Find all weapons and attachments

There are 18 weapons to find on the map – some are found in pairs. Only if you explore the entire map and its Points of Interest will you ultimately have the complete arsenal.

Check your inventory to see if you have actually looted all available weapons:

Additionally, there are a few attachments for the pistol and shotgun, but not much can be found yet:

  • 5x attachment mounts for shotguns
  • 2x attachment mounts for pistols
  • Flashlight attachment
  • Silencer
  • Laser attachment

Examine every point displayed on the map. If you want to explore purposefully, here is a map with the POIs of Sons of the Forest: mapgenie.io – activate the points “Weapons” and “Utility Item”.

Number 2: Make the most of the building system

In Sons of the Forest, building a proper base offers only a few advantages. However, the building system gives you a lot of freedom, even though it is currently not very extensive.

In your houses, you can completely forgo blueprints and build a wonderfully cozy log cabin. Or an entirely extravagant treehouse that engulfs the entire surrounding forest.

However, don’t let Kelvin help with the treehouses – the fine gentleman can cost you hours of work.

However, your neighbors are not particularly happy about the new properties popping up on the island. Building well is really only possible in cooperative mode when fellow players help fend off attacks while carrying logs on the side.

Or you can start a new game with “Peaceful” as the difficulty level or turn the enemies completely “OFF”. Then you can peacefully build your little log cabin paradise and enjoy the fun building system.

sons of the forest house building logs
The building system offers you a lot of freedom – check your options in the building manual with the button “B”.

Number 3: Go sledding

For 1,000 printer resin, you can get a sled from the 3D printer of your choice. The sled helps you survive great heights unharmed and quickly race down a slope.

In cooperative mode, you should also have a race or explore the mountain together and find the fastest way down.

This way, you can have a fun outing across the island, discover some nice views, and find out that the sled is totally OP and likely beats any sports car – at least when going downhill.

Number 4: Reach the secret Virginia ending

Kelvin and Virginia support you in your island adventures. While Kelvin is there from the start and assists you as a diligent hand, Virginia is excellent for defending the base.

However, the nice, mutated lady is somewhat picky and it takes time for her to trust you.

She slowly becomes more comfortable with you. Later, she can be equipped with a weapon, and her third arm seems to be equipped with an aimbot. With her headshot rate, the anti-cheat from CoD: Warzone would probably have become suspicious.

Players have also discovered that there is a secret ending with Virginia. You can find more about it here:

Number 5: Dive directly into The Forest

Sons of the Forest started as an improved version of The Forest, but does not have the scope of the first part. If you don’t know the predecessor and haven’t had enough of the gameplay, then play Forest 1 now.

The graphics are somewhat dated, but not ugly. You will recognize some mechanics from Sons of the Forest, but also notice that Forest 1 has much deeper mechanics in many areas.

Additionally, there are many mods available online to enhance and/or expand the gameplay experience of Forest 1. If you haven’t had enough of the forest – then go find Timmy.

Sons of the Forest had a fantastic start on Steam. Within the first 24 hours, 2 million units were already sold on Steam.

However, it is in Early Access and the content is still somewhat sparse, especially for veterans and frequent players.

Sons of the Forest: Building gates – 3 entrances for palisades

Sons of the Forest currently offers no way to build proper gates for your palisade walls. But you can trick a bit – here you will find 3 variants.

What kind of gates can you build? If you want to equip your palisades with gates, you currently have 3 options:

  1. Offset gate with door
  2. Simple frame
  3. Double frame

Gates 2 and 3 are open gates that provide you with a good appearance. Only with gate 1 can you actually close your palisades. Here you will find instructions for all 3 variants with pictures. For all gates, you only need logs. Are you looking for tips for beginners? Then start our video:

Start video
5 Tips for a Good Start in Sons of the Forest

Building gates: Offset gate with door

For this gate, you will build an extra wall that stands as close as possible to the palisade.

How do you build the gate? Grab some logs and let’s go:

  • Stand a log upright
  • Place another log upright – use the dashed line for the appropriate distance
  • Lay a log horizontally on the ground: This log should lie exactly between the two upright logs – slightly offset but as close as possible
  • Now stack a total of 7 logs on the horizontal log
  • Approach with the axe closer and remove half of the 5 middle logs – you will get a corresponding marking when you are close enough with the axe
  • You can now fill the opening with half logs
  • On the left and right, you can extend the upright logs into palisades

If you want to close the gate, there is a little trick. Place a stick close to the door and secure it with stones. Towards the stick, the door can no longer be opened:

sons of the forest close gate
The makeshift door lock in Sons of the Forest

Building gates: Simple frame

Here you won’t get a door, but a passage for your palisade.

How do you build the gate? Here you have to pay attention to little. Build a passage and place the palisade at the end.

  • Stand a log upright
  • Look at the upper end of the standing log with another log on your shoulder to place an angled beam
  • Grab another log and look at the lower end of the angled beam and place it upright
  • The frame is standing and the upright beams can be extended into palisades

Double frame

As with the second gate, you won’t get a door here, but a larger passage for your wooden wall.

How do you build the gate? This gate requires two horizontal logs on the ground as a foundation.

  • Place two logs horizontally on the ground
  • Stand one upright log at each end
  • Look at the upper end of one of the upright logs with a log and place an angled beam
  • Look at the lower end of the angled beam with a log and raise the angled log with it
  • Place a horizontal log on top between the middle log and the standing upright log that is still free
  • Now you can remove the middle log with “C”
  • The upright logs can be extended into palisades on the sides

Sons of the Forest is still in Early Access and is still missing some features, especially in the building system, and is still somewhat prone to bugs. If you have trouble placing the logs as shown in the photos, try to experiment a bit. Unfortunately, it sometimes acts up a little.

If you have questions about the gates or the building system in general, leave a comment on the topic. If you are also looking for a map for the game, you will find the right one here: Sons of the Forest: Map with the most important locations

EA FC 24: New Season Pass for Mascot Madness – The best packs and players for every level

The second part of the fourth season in FC 24 Ultimate Team has begun and focuses on the mascots. In addition to plush accessories for your stadium, the new Season Pass offers much more. We present the highlights and show which rewards you should choose.

What is the Season Pass?

  • On Thursday, February 15, the new Season Pass, which is available for a total of 28 days, was released in FC 24 Ultimate Team. To complete it fully, 25,000 XP (1,000 XP per level) is required.
  • This time, mascots are the focus as objects for your own stadium. The Season Pass also offers other rewards in the form of picks, packs, or players (all untradeable) that are assigned to each level, just like in past seasons.
  • You will earn the necessary experience points by completing tasks. To do this, you need to regularly start the virtual trading card game and play the various modes. EA specifies the specific requirements.

Future Stars, an icon, and strong packs: These rewards you can unlock

What can you expect in the new Season Pass?

  • The Season Pass represents the second part of the fourth season and is called “Mascot Madness”. At levels 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 14, 18, and 21, you can choose from a selection of two to three mascots as so-called field trophies for your stadium.
  • If you like collecting special cards, make sure to reach level 5 (87 Merlin) and level 10 (88 Musah), as there is an exclusive Future Star to be obtained here, which cannot be obtained otherwise. Especially, the card of Musah comes with strong values.

However, the highlight awaits you at level 25. There, you can unlock the Thunderstruck version of the Portuguese icon Luis Figo, unless you want to try your luck with the 84+x20 pack or the player choice (1 of 3 Fantasy Team 1/2 players untradeable).

On the way there, you still have to make more difficult decisions, and we want to help you with that.

Level 15: Either an untradeable Future Star from Team 1/2 or an 85+x7 pack?

Since most players now have a good team and the majority of the Future Stars cards released so far are not particularly convincing, you should choose the pack here. Equipped with plenty of SBC fodder, you can then tackle a Squad Building Challenge that can strengthen your team more specifically.

Level 20: Either an 85+x10 pack or an 87+x4 pack?

Although the 85+x10 sounds very tempting, you should always be aware that most players will only have an 85 or 86 rating. These players will hardly be needed for expensive SBCs. Moreover, the likelihood of drawing these players from the weaker Season Pass packs is significantly higher. For this reason, we recommend the 87+x4 pack, as you can definitely use every single player.

Here’s what else to expect in the new Season Pass

Level 2: 1 of 3 rare gold players 80+ (untradeable)

Level 4: 81+x2 Rare Gold Professionals Pack

Level 7: 81+x2 Rare Gold Professionals Pack

Level 8: 82+x2 Rare Gold Professionals Pack

Level 11: 83+x2 Rare Gold Professionals Pack

Level 13: 83+x3 Rare Gold Professionals Pack

Level 16: 84+x2 Rare Gold Professionals Pack

Level 17: 85+ Rare Gold Professional Pack

Level 22: Rare Professionals Pack (50k Pack)

Level 23: 84+x5 Rare Gold Professionals Pack

Level 23: 85+x3 Rare Gold Professionals Pack

If you are more interested in the Future Stars player choice at level 15, you can take a look at our event overview. There, we have already listed all known players from the second team.

What you need to keep in mind about cheats: When using cheats, you must be aware that you are manipulating the game. You are causing things that would not occur in Sons of the Forest. It could therefore happen that your save file may become corrupted and you might lose your progress. Therefore, you should save your original save point separately so you can access it if your file gets corrupted.

Is Pocket Pal quick with updates? In fact, the development team behind Palworld seems to be very dedicated. Since the launch in Early Access, they have already released three patches in addition to the roadmap. These primarily dealt with bug fixes and preventing cheating:

At the end of January, many players complained on Reddit about Pals being stolen by other players as well as one-sided PvP. The stealing of Pals and PvP should not have been possible at all. Pocket Pal responded promptly with one of the above-mentioned patches.

Are there already wishes in the community? Of course, we would like to know specifically from our MeinMMO readers what their or your wish features are. Some users have already collected ideas on Reddit. Among them are bigger features, but also quality-of-life adjustments.

Here is a selection:

  • Pinnable crafting recipes
  • Automatically end Pal attacks when the opponent has 20%-15% health left
  • A priority list for the tasks of Pals in the base
  • Item assignment for boxes
  • Automatic running

Are these also things that you want for the game? Or do you have entirely different needs? Vote above and let us know in the comments what Palworld still needs from your perspective.

Palworld: Farming electric cores – How to find the resource for your electrical devices

In Palworld, you need Electric Glands to craft devices such as the important generator and certain weapons. We will show you how and where to farm this resource.

How do you farm Electric Glands? You obtain Electric Glands from Pals with the Electric element in Palworld. You must defeat or capture them in battle.

You can read about which Pals there are here: All Pals and their locations on the map

If you defeat an Electric-type Pal in battle, they will drop the Electric Glands on the ground. You just need to pick them up.

However, if you capture an Electric Pal, you will receive the glands directly and later find them in your inventory.

The number of Electric Glands you get from a Pal depends on your settings and the respective Pal.

Palworld: How you can level up quickly

Farming Electric Glands: these Pals drop the item

Which Pals drop Electric Glands? You receive Electric Glands from every single Electric-type Pal. This means:

  • Sparkit
  • Jolthog
  • Mossanda Lux
  • Univolt
  • Rayhound
  • Dazzi
  • Dinossom Lux
  • Beakon
  • Relaxaurus
  • Grizzbolt
  • Orserk

However, the best candidates for farming Electric Glands are the Electric hedgehog Jolthog and the cat Sparkit. You encounter both quite early in the game and can find them in large numbers in the starting biome at a low level.

We have marked exactly where you can find Sparkit and Jolthog on the map:

Palworld Map Sparkit and Jolthog
The locations of Sparkit and Jolthog in Palworld

What do you need Electric Glands for? You need Electric Glands to craft various electronic devices and weapons. The most important is the generator, which you need to generate electricity. You need 25 Electric Glands just to craft the generator.

Additionally, the resource is required for electric shock grenades and electric shock mines, which are very useful in battles against strong water Pals. Electric Glands are also needed to craft lamps and some saddles.

You can also catch Grizzbolt, the powerful Electric Pal of the first tower boss Zoe, by the way. You can find out where to do that on MeinMMO: Palworld: Can you catch bosses like Grizzbolt? – This is how you get especially strong Pals

Trymacs is angry because German Twitch streamers all make a mistake

The German Twitch streamer Trymacs criticized in a reaction video a common mistake that many streamers make: the clumsiness of German Twitch streamers makes him fume.

What upset Trymacs? A few months ago, Trymacs criticized another significant mistake among streamers. He expressed his outrage that some streamers forget that they also have to pay taxes on their earnings, and threatened to lose it if they were to make this mistake.

Although the current mistake is not as severe as forgetting to set aside money for taxes, the blunder makes the streamer boil with anger.

In a recently released video from “Satter Hugo,” Trymacs reacted to a scene that was shown right at the beginning. It depicted the well-known streamer Papaplatte accidentally knocking over a glass filled with water on his desk.

After a moment of shock, Papaplatte commented on the incident: “Bro, this is dumb. I just wanted to quickly move my camera to the bottom right, now I’ve got water on my keyboard.” He then held his keyboard up to the camera, tilted it slightly to the side, and it was clearly visible how water dripped out.

Trymacs commented on the clip: “How can this even happen? Hey, every tenth video is somehow like an energy drink or water or whatever – who has open drinks at their workspace? I have water here too.” As a counter-example, he presented a closed water bottle that was safely placed next to him.

You can find out who the first successful streamers were here:

Start video
Twitch: Who were actually the first successful streamers?

“Glasses at the workplace?!”

What does Trymacs say about the next examples? Another example that worried the pedantic Alman in Trymacs was a clip of Papaplatte getting upset about another situation. In this, Papaplatte stood up and accidentally knocked his glass off the desk. It broke.

Trymacs, shocked by this negligence, asked in disbelief: “Glasses at the workplace?”.

Next, the video showed a clip of HoneyPuu, which further intensified Trymacs’ concerns. In the scene, HoneyPuu placed a coffee cup directly in front of her on the desk, right between her elbows and very close to the edge of the table. When she wanted to scratch her arm, she accidentally knocked the cup over, but she managed to catch it just in time.

Still, all the coffee spilled over her desk, prompting Trymacs to make a dismayed comment: “That drink is so exposed! Where’s the lid? Where’s the closure? How can you place it there?”.

His dismay increased as he watched the clip again. The streamer loudly commented: “I really take this personally. Look how much coffee is in the air. How did she manage to have the entire contents of the cup hovering above the cup? That’s still okay. But soon gravity will come and smear the whole mess all over the chair, table, mousepad, keyboard, over the mouse, probably even something in her hair, on her T-shirt. You can spend an hour and a half cleaning, and you’ll never get it as clean as it was before.”.

As HoneyPuu held her keyboard up to the camera and coffee flowed from it, Trymacs predicted total damage for the device due to the moisture and potential mold growth.

“Isn’t everyone in a bad mood?”

Which clip surprised Trymacs, however? It seemed that Satter Hugo had already anticipated how Trymacs would react to the clips shown. After the impressive scenes, Hugo included a clip of Trymacs, in which he commented: “Why is Hugo including this? Everyone is in a bad mood.”

Trymacs couldn’t help but laugh and admitted: “Shit, how did he know that? Yes, that’s true. It starts with two leaking keyboards, and I’m already in a bad mood! He knows me too well.”.

Speaking of drinks, the mineral water brand Volvic invited to the “Hydro Games,” where 6 content creators on Twitch compete against each other. However, the action is facing backlash since the company behind it is controversial.

Diablo 4 is coming to Game Pass – You can play it as early as next month

The player base of Diablo 4 is likely to grow significantly in just a few weeks. Because Diablo 4 is coming to Game Pass this March.

When it became apparent on the horizon that Microsoft was acquiring the gaming giant Activision Blizzard, it was only a matter of time before the first games would come to Xbox Game Pass. This has been discussed for a long time. The time has now come for a major title from Blizzard, as Diablo 4 will be included in Game Pass in March 2024. We have all the information about it.

Currently, this event is taking place in Diablo 4, the Lunar Awakening:

What is Game Pass? Microsoft’s Game Pass is a subscription model that allows you to play numerous games for a monthly price – depending on the variant either on Xbox, on PC, or even on both devices simultaneously. Over time, more and more games are added to this offering, increasing the attractiveness of the subscription model.

Where does the info come from? From Microsoft itself. Because the official X/Twitter account of the PC Game Pass announced on the evening of February 15, 2024, that Diablo 4 will be available in Game Pass starting March 28, 2024.

From then on, if you are a subscriber, you can dive into the world of Sanctuary and join everyone else in complaining that of course your class is the worst one right now.

This is how the community reacts: The announcement that Diablo 4 will be playable in Game Pass in the future is met with mixed feelings within the community. While many are excited that they will soon be able to dive into the action-adventure at very low costs, there is also criticism of the decision. There is often still a perception that the inclusion of a title in a large subscription model means that a game has failed – and some regret having paid the full price for Diablo 4 back then.

Will you be playing Diablo 4 in Game Pass? Or do you already own the game and have nothing to worry about?

WoW player leisurely earns high ‘Mythic+’ rating with his Steam Deck – Here are his tips

On reddit, a player posted how he comfortably achieved a high “Mythic+” rating of over two thousand from his bed while playing World of Warcraft on his Steam Deck and shared his gaming experience with the community.

The reddit user u/Somethin_Clever posted a photo on February 15, 2024, showing him lying in bed with his Steam Deck in hand. The screen indicates that the player had achieved a “Mythic+” rating of 2121.

In the comments, another user expressed excitement and asked how WoW plays with a Steam Deck and whether certain classes perform better than others. The post author then shared his experiences and tips with the device.

How does WoW play on the Steam Deck? Regarding his impressions of playing WoW on the handheld console, u/Somethin_Clever wrote:

SoD [Season of Discovery] seems the easiest to play, but I mostly play in Retail, I play on low settings (out of sight) and usually get around 38 FPS. In open-world events, I achieve quite low FPS. […]

In my time as a player on the Deck, I found that the complexity or number of keys in a rotation doesn’t matter as long as you invest a lot of time in your macros and keybinding.

Regarding the best classes for the Steam Deck, the player recommended melee DPS first, then tanks, and third ranged DPS. He further explained that classes with many placement spells are annoying but doable.

As selecting ranged targets on the Steam Deck can be somewhat tricky, he recommended switching the Beast Mastery Hunter to Survival.

Healing is too difficult on the console, and he doesn’t believe it works well – that’s why he has avoided it so far.

What are the downsides on the Steam Deck? u/Somethin_Clever also lists a few downsides of the Steam Deck. The setup takes a lot of time, and add-ons are annoying, according to the player.

As a solution, he advised: “I usually record all my WeakAuras on my PC and then upload them to Wago. Then I simply download them from Wago onto the Deck.”

Additionally, chatting is also a disaster on the device. While he can connect a keyboard, he still has to put down the console every time to type something.

However, it’s all worth it, as u/Somethin_Clever concluded: “But considering all the downsides against the advantage of playing in a comfortable bed/couch/chair or on the go/traveling makes it worth it in my opinion.”

Palworld: “This is not a base, this is a city” – player extracts everything from the building mode

Building a base is one of the central elements of Palworld. A player gets the most out of the building mode and impressed the community on Reddit with their Anubis Base”.

At the beginning of the video, the player character stands in front of a gigantic Anubis statue. In front of the entrance, there are numerous plants and a fountain.

The player character then walks into an area of the base that resembles a spa with hot springs and cushioned furniture. In the next area, you can see several large round beds and a second, open floor that contains pal beds.

The player has built something in a wooden building that resembles a reception area. The building contains several bathrooms and bedrooms. Outside, a bar is recognizable, including numerous seating groups and even a piano.

Another building resembles a restaurant with the reception area and seating groups. The player then presents various work tools. The arrangement of the tools and desks makes it look like a small company. Apparently, there is also a break room with a couch and a TV, as well as a bathroom.

Players of Baldur’s Gate 3 were firmly convinced of a Valentine’s Day patch – instead, they received penguin memes

Larian Studios announced the extensive Patch 6 for Baldur’s Gate 3 for this week. The community collectively agreed: It’s definitely coming on Valentine’s Day. But Larian Studios had other plans and sent penguin memes as a response.

As Larian Studios announced in a post, all players of Baldur’s Gate 3 can look forward to Patch 6 and thus a huge update this week. By the way, the patch is now live.

What was not mentioned in the post, however, was the exact release date of Patch 6. It only stated: “Love is in the air in Faerûn.”

Many fans interpreted this as a sign that the update would be released on Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2024. However, they were wrong, as Larian Studios humorously made clear to them.

But that was not going to be Larian Studios’ last penguin. On February 14, 2024, Valentine’s Day came – but the patch did not.

Instead, Larian Studios gifted players with one last penguin on X.com. This time, one that lies in bed, laughing diabolically. The game studio wrote: “Sweet Dreams”.

How did the players react? Under the last penguin post, many users complained that the patch did not actually come out on Valentine’s Day. Some also begged that the game company would still be merciful enough to release the patch on Valentine’s Day, as they had stayed home to test the new kiss animations right away.

However, some also conceded that Larian Studios had clearly made it clear with the first penguin that the patch would not arrive on the expected date – and had actually not mentioned a specific date in the announcement at all.

Palworld: Player collects 25,000 Ancient Parts – here are his tips

In Palworld, you need ancient components to craft various items. A player has collected 25,000 pieces of the resource and reveals on Reddit how he did it.

What are “Ancient Components”? Ancient components are a resource in Palworld that you primarily need for crafting ancient technology, such as the incubator. You also need the components for the giga shield and the tera shield, which protect you from hits.

With the ancient components, you can also craft a grappling hook gun that allows you to move faster. A player has built a kind of “elevator” with the gun – and even the developers were impressed.

One way to gather the ancient components is by killing alpha pals. On Reddit, a player shared his approach on February 15. Through this, he has farmed a total of 25,000 ancient components.

Palworld: How you can level up quickly

With customized world settings to the goal

How did he accomplish this? In his post, the user “Aggressive-Intern411” writes on February 15 that he finally collected over 25k ancient components. This took “forever”. When asked what his favorite method is for collecting the components, he writes in the comments:

Force the spawn of Paladius and kill him over and over again. I started when I could kill all 6 of them with 3-4 rockets.

Set the passing of night and daytime as short as possible, set the 3x pal spawn amount, and then you can go back there after each day that passes. I think it takes less than 10 minutes in total.

It’s all about world settings, lots of spawns, very short days = profit.

In the screenshot of his Reddit post, you can see that he has equipped two legendary rocket launchers. He explains in a comment that he uses them to shoot 2 times without reloading, so he can “one-shot” everything.

This could explain how he can face the high number of strong alpha pals in Palworld and farm them in higher spawn amounts.

Where can I find Paladius? The alpha pal “Paladius” is located far in the north, in a zone with a level range of 40 to 50. According to a player, Paladius is one of the strongest pals that can deal the most damage.

Helldivers 2 does not have PvP because the boss thinks it’s too toxic: „If you want PvP, I recommend Tarkov“

The new co-op shooter Helldivers 2 is currently very successful on Steam and PS5. The game focuses on PvE and will not have PvP in the future.

What is Helldivers 2? Helldivers 2 is a co-op shooter for PS5 and PC, released on February 8, 2024, and has gathered over 150,000 concurrent players on Steam.

  • The goal of Helldivers 2 is to bring peace and democracy across the galaxy – with firepower.
  • You fight in third-person perspective against various enemy types like alien bugs and robots, always making it clear that you are doing this for the freedom of the citizens of the so-called Over-Earth.
  • Helldivers 2 does not take itself too seriously. This pursuit of peace, freedom, and democracy is often portrayed and parodied in an exaggerated manner.
  • As humorous as Helldivers 2 is staged, the gameplay can be quite challenging. On nine difficulty levels, you fight with up to 4 players against hordes of enemies – requiring good teamwork and communication at times.

Helldivers 2 forgoes PvP

Who is it about? Johan Pilestedt is the CEO and Game Director at Arrowhead, the Swedish development studio behind Helldivers 2.

What does the CEO say about PvP? On X.com (formerly Twitter), Pilestedt commented on a post that the studio is doing its best to make Helldivers 2 a successful game that lasts a long time. A user on the social network then said that Helldivers 2 needs PvP to “steal” Call of Duty players.

Pilestedt explained that Arrowhead will not add a PvP mode to Helldivers 2 to reduce toxic elements. Instead, the studio wants to create an environment that is “supportive and fun. “

The user then speculated that the developers are afraid to add PvP. But Pilestedt made it clear: “We are not afraid. We just don’t want the toxicity that comes with it. We make games for people who just want to have a challenging time with friends, but in a PvE environment. If you want PvP, I recommend Tarkov [Note: Escape from Tarkov].”

With Escape from Tarkov, Pilestedt recommends an extraction shooter that goes in a quite different direction than Helldivers 2.

While Tarkov is also known to be a very challenging game, it focuses on realistic gameplay, a first-person perspective, and PvP, unlike the co-op shooter.

  • Explore your area and discover mysteries
  • Craft, upgrade equipment or improve your magic

If you don’t like future portals and areas, you can also design a destination to your liking with realm cards. This way, you can customize the biome, enemies, and materials so that you end up in an area you desire.

Nightingale: Prices and editions at a glance

How much will Nightingale cost? There is officially no price for Nightingale yet, but fans on Reddit estimate the price to be $29.99. If the game aims for its full release in the future, “early access” players could also be charged again, as the developers are considering a possible surcharge. However, nothing is set in stone yet (via steam.com).

These were all the important updates about the release of Nightingale so far. If more information is released in the future regarding the release of the console version or new features, we will update our post.

Game of Thrones: Emilia Clarke tried to warn us before season 8, but no one listened to her

Season 8 of Game of Thrones disappointed many viewers. But as a TikTok video shows, we could have actually guessed beforehand that the finale might upset some: Because Emilia Clarke warned us without directly stating it.

Season 8 of Game of Thrones was torn apart by many fans. Among other things, the season was criticized for how quickly it rushed through some storylines. In addition, certain character developments, such as those of Daenerys Targaryen, led to negative reactions among viewers.

Some fans went so far in their dissatisfaction as to create a petition demanding a re-shoot of Season 8. You can read more about it here at our colleagues from Moviepilot.

However, as a TikTok video shows, we could have guessed beforehand that the last season would be divisive and might disappoint many. Because one Game of Thrones actress did not seem too thrilled about the series finale herself, but could only express that indirectly in interviews.

Here you see a trailer for Game of Thrones:

This is how it is sorted: In this overview we show you two tables.

  • The fastest airplanes, sorted by lap time
  • The fastest airplanes, sorted by top speed

We differentiate here because the uses of airplanes are different for players. Thus, you can choose the right airplane for you based on your requirements.

The YouTuber Broughy1322 has made it his mission to test various land and flying vehicles from GTA Online thoroughly (via YouTube.com). For the top speeds, he calculates the speed over a longer period of time, not just the peak during a boost. We use his analysis for our tables.

Note: The speedometers and cockpit instruments in GTA Online are not particularly reliable based on experience. The numbers from Broughy correspond to the “real” speed of the airplanes. It is quite possible that GTA Online shows you different values for speed at times. However, this does not change the ranking.

It should be noted that there are many variables when it comes to the top speed in GTA Online, which can lead to different (and higher) top speeds. Additionally, the in-game speedometer and other forms of speed measurement either do not function or are at least inaccurate (example on YouTube). If you compare this with your own observations, you will most likely get incorrect results.

This is special: It is exciting that the Seabreeze is still among the top 10 in this ranking. The seaplane is excellent for various missions in GTA Online and is therefore particularly popular as a means of making money.

The fact that the plane is also so fast greatly expands its range of use.

This is special: Here it shows that top speed is not the most important point for the planes. If you have a racetrack with many curves, airplanes with good handling are better suited. The nimble, small Alpha-Z1 can score particularly well here.

What makes the fastest airplanes so good?

We want to introduce you to a few examples that made it onto the list of the fastest airplanes in GTA Online.

  • The Seabreeze, which can also land on water
  • The fast and agile Alpha-Z1
  • P-996 Lazer, the expensive jet

If you would like other airplanes from this list to be highlighted, please let us know here on MeinMMO in the comments.

Seabreeze

GTA Online Seabreeze 2
  • Cost: 850,000 to 1,130,500 GTA dollars
  • Dealer: Elitás Travel

What makes the Seabreeze special: This single-engine airplane is a loyal companion to many players in GTA Online. It is popular for preparing heists because you can easily reach targets on the water. When landing on water, you don’t even have to be very careful. Even if you land in the sea at higher speeds, the aircraft remains intact. You have to be very rough to damage the Seabreeze with water.

You can equip the Seabreeze with machine guns or activate the bomb bays. This gives you attack options against ground targets. The cockpit can accommodate 2 players.

With its wide range of applications and relatively low purchase price, the Seabreeze finds many fans in the online world of Grand Theft Auto V.

Alpha-Z1

GTA Online Alpha-Z1 2
  • Cost: 1,595,000 to 2,121,350 GTA dollars
  • Dealer: Elitás Travel

What makes the Alpha-Z1 special: With the Alpha-Z1 from Buckingham, you control a special stunt airplane. It is incredibly fast in races due to its agility, but requires much training to master. Once you have completed a few flight hours in the Alpha-Z1, no one can keep up with you in races.

However, it excels even outside of races. You only need to cover a few meters before you can take off. You can’t install weapons in the aircraft. That would not fit the light and agile theme at all.

If you enjoy flying in GTA Online and want to try your hand at stunts, take a closer look at the Alpha-Z1. The Z1 has only one seat in the cockpit.

P-996 Lazer

GTA Online P-996 Lazer
  • Cost: 6,500,000 GTA dollars
  • Dealer: Warstock Cache & Carry

What makes the P-996 special: The plane is the second military jet after the Hydra that made its way into the world of GTA. If you don’t want to spend 6.5 million on it, you can steal a version at the military airport.

The P-996 is armed with double explosive weapons that can easily eliminate targets in the air or on the ground with a burst of fire. To hit well with the aircraft, you need some practice. After a few hours with the P-996, you become a significant potential threat to other players.

You have access to guided and straightforward firing missiles. When firing, two missiles are launched alternately in quick succession until you need to reload.

Do you still need the “pocket money” to buy one of the featured airplanes? We show you here ways to earn money quickly in GTA Online. If you invest a bit of time, you can easily earn several million and afford the vehicles.

Players want to force EA to kindly revive Anthem – “Nothing compared to that”

The development of the MMO shooter Anthem was discontinued 3 years ago, but the game still enjoys a loyal fan base. On reddit, a plan has now been put forward to force EA to develop an Anthem 2.0 with violence.

What is the situation with Anthem?

  • The MMO shooter Anthem, also known as “The game where everyone is Iron Man”, was released in February 2019.
  • The problem was that BioWare barely finished the game at release and then the team broke apart: The original team at BioWare was unable to push out new content. Later, it was said that the SWTOR MMO team should first address the game’s problems with major updates.
  • In February 2020, BioWare announced a major overhaul. For a year, it was uncertain how Anthem would proceed. They were developing and preparing an “Anthem Next”. But ultimately, EA discontinued Anthem in February 2021, 3 years ago.

“Anthem deserves a second chance”

This is the current status: Even though Anthem has failed in the eyes of the general public and was a flop, the game has found many fans with its strong gameplay loop and unique aesthetics who still enjoy and appreciate it today.

They fantasize about how great it could have been if EA had continued to develop Anthem.

In a post on reddit, they are now calling, 3 years after the end: “Let’s bring Anthem back.” If No Man’s Sky and Cyberpunk 2077 got a second chance, then surely Anthem could do it too, they say.

They ask fans to post the hashtag #reviveanthem on social media and to prompt EA for a statement.

Is it going to work? No, probably not. There were some posts on Twitter with the hashtag on February 9, but nothing significant.

A player says nothing has equaled Anthem since. But the hashtag wave fades quickly.

However: It is impressive that the reddit post received 2200 upvotes and 628 comments. For a game that has been dead for 3 years, that is quite unusual.

This shows what potential Anthem had and how unfortunate it is that so little was done with so much. Today, EA surely regrets the title.

Bitterness towards EA dominates the discussion

How are people discussing it? There is a great longing for Anthem, it can be read repeatedly about the game. Many think back to the title with love and nostalgia. They loved the feeling of soaring through the air with their hero, diving down on enemies, and overwhelming them with a hail of rockets.

But under the thread at Anthem, there is also a lot of cynicism against EA. They have sunk many great games, such as Titanfall. EA is said to be “deaf to feedback”. They only care about profit. One can rage, scream, and even hack a game – nothing will happen as long as EA does not sniff a juicy profit.

CD Projekt Red never gave up on Cyberpunk, but EA gave up on Anthem, it is said, and one can almost feel the salt on the tongue.

By now, a lot of nostalgia has probably been replaced by bitterness.
