The new hotfix 16 for Baldur’s Gate 3 apparently causes a wave of bugs with quest items. Some players report that they can no longer complete important quests. MeinMMO reveals what is behind this.
Players of Baldur’s Gate 3 have been struggling with issues following the recent hotfix 16 from Larian Studios. The hotfix, which was released as a relatively small patch, brought numerous changes and bug fixes with it, including the following highlights:
Waypoints are now sorted into categories, making it clearer.
You can now immediately access certain quest-related items, even if they are in the storage chest or in a companion’s inventory at the camp.
A bug with Gale’s dialogue that abruptly ended when you asked him after a kiss has been fixed.

Despite these bug fixes and improvements, some players have encountered difficulties, particularly in relation to quest items.

Middle finger to the AAA industry: Baldur’s Gate 3 was no coincidence
Some players can no longer complete important quests after the new hotfix
What problems are there? After hotfix 16, players are increasingly reporting on reddit and X about difficulties in using certain quest items to successfully complete quests. The game would not recognize existing items correctly. Players suspect that hotfix 16 is responsible for this.
Some report that the game occasionally does not recognize that a player has access to important quest-related items like the Spear of Night or the Dark Amethyst.
Player JusticeofTorenOneEsk has created a continuously updated list of faulty quest items to help players identify and possibly work around the issues. The list includes both items for which possible workarounds are known, as well as those for which no solutions have yet been found.
For many players, there was also a simple solution: Turn off the mods. After turning off the mods, many players found that it worked again.

Affected players are encouraging each other to report all discovered bugs directly to Larian Studios, so that the development team can respond promptly. Some emphasize that hotfix 17 is needed as soon as possible. Others are worried about their run in the tough Honour Mode, where every small mistake can lead to a game over.
It remains to be seen how quickly Larian Studios will respond to the issues. In the meantime, you can try the suggested solutions and deactivate your mods to see if that resolves the problem.

The Mandalorian Din Djarin and his cute companion Grogu will be coming to the big screen. Instead of a 4th season, a movie in the well-known “Star Wars” universe has now been announced. Jon Favreau will direct, who also brought us the film about another famous man in iron armor.
Disney and Lucasfilm announced that the two popular “Star Wars” characters will now be brought from living rooms to the big screen. Instead of a 4th season of the series The Mandalorian, a movie has been announced. The film will be released under the title The Mandalorian & Grogu .
Here you see a trailer for the first season of Mandalorian:

The Mandalorian – German trailer for the first season
Who is involved in the film? Jon Favreau will direct the upcoming Mandalorian film. He was previously responsible as a director for Iron Man and Iron Man 2, as well as the creator and executive producer of the series The Mandalorian.
He expressed his excitement about the opportunity to bring the well-known characters from the “Star Wars” series to the big screen:
I loved telling stories set in the rich world created by George Lucas. The prospect of bringing the Mandalorian and his apprentice Grogu to the big screen is extremely exciting.
As producers of the film, Jon Favreau, Kathleen Kennedy, and Dave Filoni are listed. Production of The Mandalorian & Grogu is expected to start later this year.
Will there be a 4th season of Mandalorian? This is currently unclear. There has been no official announcement on how to proceed with the series and whether fans can still expect a continuation in the future despite the movie.

To help his 7-year-old daughter learn, this father gave more than just tutoring. He even developed a game that is soon to be released on Steam.
Note: The image is a symbolic representation.
What kind of game is this? The educational game resembles a classic rogue-like like Slay the Spire and is cleverly named “Super Algebrawl”. Here, the basic mathematical operations are to be practiced.
Here you can see more about gaming culture:

How gamers have evolved from “unwashed basement kids” to a real culture
Which gamer doesn’t know it from their childhood? You would really love to keep gaming, but your parents keep interrupting and want you to learn something for school instead. A clever trick to combine both is educational games. These not only grant more time at the PC – perhaps you actually learn something useful.
Benjamin Soule probably thought the same. He developed the educational game “Super Algebrawl” to help his 7-year-old daughter with her math learning.
Who is this? Benjamin Soule is part of the developer duo “Punkcake Délicieux”, which, according to their Steam page, has set out to develop a game every month.
How did the game come about? On X, formerly Twitter, Soule reported that he created Super Algebrawl in November 2023 for his daughter. Later, he decided to actually publish the game with “Punkcake Délicieux”.
The game is now nearly finished and already has a Steam page.
But how does Super Algebrawl work? As a wild boar king with magical mathematical powers, you control your animal subjects.
Each of these little animals has an associated number. These numbers must then be mathematically combined, for example added or multiplied, to match the opponents’ numbers as closely as possible.
However, it is important to be clever. Because every companion that is not used at the end will turn against you and deal damage to the wild boar king.
Throughout the game, more operations, animal companions, and special abilities will be added. One round should take about 30 minutes.
Surprisingly, it looks quite fun, especially for an educational game. And a bit of practice in mental arithmetic has surely never harmed anyone, right?
The servers of EA Sports FC 24 are currently offline due to scheduled maintenance. Both the UT servers and all other online modes are currently unavailable. EA’s customer support has already released an official statement regarding this situation.
Update from 01/10/2024 (11:10 AM): The maintenance work has concluded as planned. You should now have access to the EA servers again and be able to participate in matches in all online modes. Here, we continue with the original article.
The ability to play online matches in EA FC 24 is temporarily disabled. If you recently tried to log into EA Sports FC 24, you will find that starting online matches is currently not possible. In Ultimate Team, only the following notification appears:
Entering a match is temporarily disabled. Sorry, this should be possible again shortly. Please try again later.
It is expected that access to the online modes will not be possible until 11:00 AM. This also affects the Clubs, Volta, and Online Seasons areas.
EA announced several hours of maintenance
This is what EA says: According to the official statement from EA on the “EAFC Direct Communication” channel on X (formerly Twitter), ongoing maintenance has been announced. EA states that the work is expected to take three hours.
When will the servers be back online? The server maintenance began at 08:00 AM German time and is scheduled until 11:00 AM.
The disruptions only affect the online services of EA FC 24. All offline modes are still available. For example, you can take a look at the career mode and assemble a team from the best talents in EA FC 24 to dominate the league and world football.
The regular kickoff mode also remains playable, so simple matches are still possible.
You can also do this in EA FC 24: Despite the server maintenance, you can access your Ultimate Team using the Companion App or the Web App. There, you have the option to adjust your lineup, claim rewards, and complete SBCs. Additionally, you can use the transfer market to sell players or acquire them for your club.
As soon as the servers are available again, we will inform you.
Maybe you also take the break to improve your gameplay or practice some game-related situations. The new training arena offers the perfect opportunity for this this year.

In a podcast, Adam Driver, who played Kylo Ren in the latest Star Wars trilogy, discussed his role. He made it clear that he would never work in the franchise again.
On January 1, 2024, Adam Driver spoke in the SmartLess podcast about his significant role as the “Star Wars” antagonist in the latest film trilogy of the famous sci-fi universe.
In doing so, he dispelled all rumors regarding a possible return of the character and shared how he felt during the shooting back then.
Here you see a trailer for Star Wars 9: The Rise of Skywalker, the last film in which Adam Driver is seen as Kylo Ren:
Start video
English trailer for Star Wars 9: The Rise of Skywalker
“I made it harder than it had to be”
Adam Driver stated outright that he would not be seen in another Star Wars film. Sean Haynes, one of the hosts of the podcast, then asked the actor, “You’re done [with the role] because the character is done?”
To which Adam Driver affirmed. He added that filming the trilogy had been very exhausting for him and that he had struggled with the director’s pace, but also had stood in his own way.
Star Wars was much more exhausting for me… I made it harder than it had to be. I hadn’t quite understood the dynamics of such a large set. Everything I had worked on was quite small and moved quite quickly.
Driver explained
He further explained: “The director sets the pace on set. I don’t like to control that. I have to adapt. Spike Lee and [Steven] Soderbergh shoot very quickly. For me, that’s uncomfortable, but it’s their film, so I adapt.”
Daisy Ridley, on the other hand, who played Rey, the heroine of the new Star Wars films, will return to the familiar franchise. A new film set after The Rise of Skywalker will revolve around how her character attempts to rebuild the Jedi Order. An exact release date has not yet been announced. An actor might also return for a new film in the Star Trek universe soon: Star Trek: “Captain Picard” is set to return at 83 years – “I’m so excited”

A new mount in World of Warcraft is live – and quite stylish. Some of you may simply receive it.
Every few months, there is a new mount in the in-game shop of World of Warcraft. While this practice is still met with confusion by some fans even after years, there are also supporters who welcome more mounts and purchasable options.
The latest of these mounts, the “Promise Tree Dragon” falls into this category. And many of you are likely to receive it for free.
What kind of mount is this? The “Promise Tree Dragon” clearly lives up to its name. This dragon, which is unlocked for dynamic flight (“dragon riding”), resembles a living tree more than a typical dragon. Instead of being scaly, its entire body is covered in bark and leaves. The horns consist of branches with small treetops – visually fitting for the Emerald Dream.

How do you get the mount? To obtain the “Promise Tree Dragon,” you must have an active subscription for World of Warcraft – either the 6 or 12-month variant. If that is the case, then the mount will be credited to you for free. You can then use it to fly around the Dragon Isles. With the next patch (10.2.5), the mount will also be usable in most old areas.
Alternatively, you can simply buy the “Promise Tree Dragon” in the in-game shop for real money. However, it will cost a hefty €25 – just as expensive as many other mounts. Particularly wealthy heroes can of course go through the detour of WoW tokens to exchange gold for Battle.net currency and thus obtain the mount.
What should I do if the mount is not there yet? If you already have a subscription of 6 or 12 months and the dragon is not yet in your collection, just wait a little. These mounts are often unlocked in waves. If you meet the requirements and do not own the Tree Dragon yet, be patient – usually, the mount should be automatically unlocked within the next few days.
What do you think of this mount? Do you like it? Will you take out a long-term subscription for it?

How good is a gaming PC made of “Lego”?MeinMMO editor Benedikt Schlotmann tried out a construction set and built a gaming PC. And the result turned out surprisingly well.
Lego and other construction block manufacturers have been trying to make their sets appealing to players for a long time. For example, there has long been a set with Aloy and Longneck for PS5 players or a huge set of the town of Rivendell. By coincidence, I recently came across a gaming PC made of “Lego”: A good friend gifted me the set for my birthday, so a big thank you once again.
I have now assembled the set and had a lot of fun doing it. And despite the rather unknown manufacturer, the effort was worth it. The finished set is now on my desk.
What kind of gaming PC is this? The set comes from the manufacturer Pantasy, who most of you in Germany probably won’t know. Pantasy has modeled their design after an Intel system with Nvidia graphics card: The built-in components are
an Intel motherboard (iGame Ultrad5 Z690) with DDR4 RAM.
and an RTX40 graphics card.
Oops, unfortunately this affiliate widget is no longer available.
How long did it take me? I needed about 2-3 hours for the assembly. And that’s significantly longer than if I had to assemble a real PC. When I changed my processor a few days ago (from the Ryzen 5 3600 to the Ryzen 7 7800x3D with a new motherboard), it took me just about an hour. And that was mainly because I had to test the processor externally before installation.
Many details, few stickers, little spare parts
What do I really like? The construction blocks have good quality and have almost the same clamping force as the well-known brand “Lego”. Everything holds together well and doesn’t fall apart again.
Many bricks are printed, such as the graphics card or smaller details like the sound chip on the motherboard. The whole set contains only 2 stickers. For comparison: Lego uses almost exclusively stickers in nearly all sets, regardless of the price category. And I find that disappointing every time because real “Lego” seems to cost three times as much.
The motherboard of the gaming system. By the way, there is no CPU cooler. The remaining components are “mounted” like in a real PC.
What I also like is the clear, well-structured instruction manual. The steps are printed large enough, the steps are easy to distinguish. Here, Pantasy does everything right, in my opinion.
The real highlight, however, is the gaming PC itself, as it is full of details:
The two hard drives can be removed.
The graphics card is in its PCIe slot and can be removed
The RGB RAM is also in its slots and can also be removed.
On the back, you can see the “screws” with which the panels of the case are attached and the connections for the graphics card.
In the foreground of the image is the graphics card of the PC: The parts of the GPU are all printed. The audio chip of the motherboard in the background is also a printed block.
What could be better? The model consists of many small parts, which has pros and cons. On the other hand, there are almost no spare parts. So if a brick is actually missing, there is a high likelihood that there is no replacement. Lego is even a bit better in this regard, where at least a few bricks are usually left over. One could also criticize that there is no proper CPU cooler in the system. But that is a detail issue.
What I also find a bit regrettable: You cannot properly close the PC. There is no glass side or anything similar, and the system remains open in its finished state. In the long run, the system will likely become a dust and pet hair collector.
The instruction manual: Printed large enough, and the steps are well explained. Sometimes even more detailed than explained by “Lego”.
Great alternative if it doesn’t have to be Lego
Can I recommend this gaming PC? Yes, definitely. I build a lot of sets from alternative construction block manufacturers, but this was my first set from Pantasy. The assembly was uncomplicated, the instruction manual very good, and the details very impressive.
Lego itself does not offer a gaming PC made of building blocks to this extent, and in the cold winter, the set from Pantasy was just right to keep me occupied.
The survival game Empyrion – Galactic Survival on Steam is set to receive its first expansion titled “Dark Faction”. The developers are receiving support from Funcom, the creators of Conan Exiles.
What kind of game is this? Empyrion – Galactic Survival comes from Eleon Game Studios and was officially released on Steam in 2020, after being playable in Early Access for several years. It has garnered over 81% positive reviews on Steam. The game has also made it onto our list of the 25 best survival games of 2024 for PlayStation, PC, and Xbox.
With “Dark Faction,” the game is now set to receive its first expansion. The two companies, Eleon Game Studios and Funcom (Conan Exiles, The Longest Journey), have joined forces to expand the sandbox survival universe of Empyrion – Galactic Survival.
How is the partnership taking shape? According to the press release, the Switzerland-based development team has been working on Empyrion – Galactic Survival since 2015. Since then, “well over a million players have survived on many different planets and built their own, completely unique spaceship to explore the secrets of the galaxy.”
Funcom will handle financing and publishing services, allowing the team to pursue “even more ambitious additions.” According to Erling Ellingsen, Chief Marketing Officer at Funcom, the team is excited to help the developers expand the universe – “not just with Dark Faction, but with even bigger things in the future.”
Here you can see a teaser for the expansion “Dark Faction”:

Trailer: Dark Faction – first expansion for Empyrion – Galactic Survival
The expansion showcases a darker side of the Empyrion galaxy
What is Empyrion – Galactic Survival about? In the open-world game, you build ships, space stations, and settlements on foreign planets to explore them and uncover their secrets. However, you have to deal with a hostile environment as well as various creatures and foes.
To survive, you need the right equipment and basic necessities such as food and oxygen. Various means of transport are available to you, ranging from motorcycles to tanks and spaceships – space battles included.
In the Dark Faction expansion, players will experience a completely new scenario and a dark side of the Empyrion galaxy – an indestructible organism threatens living beings. Dark Faction is, according to the press release, perfect for newcomers but also for Empyrion veterans and is expected to bring new mechanics, including improved melee gameplay, additional building materials, and new secrets.
When will the expansion be released? According to the press release, the entire team at Eleon Games is dedicated to the development. The expansion for Empyrion – Galactic Survival is scheduled for release on February 6, 2024, on Steam and the Epic Games Store.
There are also news about Conan Exiles, as: The survival game from Funcom will soon receive a free update. What new features it will include and how a colossus is involved, you can find out here:
Players of Call of Duty: Warzone often ask about the current meta weapons to dominate in matches. A Warzone streamer has now built a weapon that he believes should replace all assault rifles.
Which weapon is it? In his YouTube video, streamer and content creator “Swagg” talks on January 8 about the battle rifle MTZ-762 in Call of Duty: Warzone. He has seen the weapon with some streamers but hadn’t considered it until then. So he created a build and claims: This weapon is “absolutely ridiculous”.
“Swagg” is a content creator for FaZe and was one of the biggest Warzone streamers on Twitch in 2022. He last streamed there on September 1, 2022. Currently, he primarily streams on YouTube, where he has over 3 million subscribers. He regularly posts weapon builds on YouTube as well.
Start video
CoD Warzone shows the map Urzikistan in the overview trailer
How does he build the MTZ-762? The following build and attachments are presented by “Swagg” in his video:
Barrel: MTZ-Precision Blackthorn Barrel
Sight: Corio Eagleseye 2.5x
Stock: EXF-Close Combat Assault Stock
Magazine: 30-Round Magazine
Muzzle: VT-7 Spiritfire Silencer
What makes the weapon so good? In his opinion, the MTZ-762 dominates Warzone matches, although Quads, that is, Warzone rounds with four players, are somewhat challenging to handle since the rifle only has a 30-round magazine. In his video, “Swagg” describes the build as “too easy to use”.
“Swagg’s” weapon build for the MTZ-762 offers good recoil control with the stock, while the barrel increases range and damage. The 2.5x magnification sight provides precision at a greater distance, only slightly affecting mobility. The silencer also enhances precision.
The battle rifle could become the meta in Warzone, especially if the MTZ Interceptor, which according to Warzone Loadout Community is currently one of the best weapons, is expected to be nerfed in the coming days according to Raven Software, the developer of Warzone (Source: X.com).
In Call of Duty: Warzone, a pistol is currently quite strong, as a modification kit increases the fire rate of the pistol by a whole 100%. However, for this to work, you need the right loadout.
While the MTZ-762 is mainly suitable for longer ranges, the pistol is a suitable secondary weapon for close distances:
In Destiny 2, Bungie has revealed some news for the loot shooter in its latest TWaB post. Among them is an upcoming catalyst that many fans have been wishing for years, specifically for the weapon ‘Thorn’. We will show you everything important about it.
Update: We updated this article on January 9, 2024, because Bungie made adjustments to the catalyst values. The values changed from +20 range and +10 stability to +15 range, +5 stability, and +5 effectiveness in the air.
What is the Thorn? In Destiny 1 and 2, there is an iconic weapon that everyone should have heard of or seen, which is the exotic hand cannon ‘Thorn’. This tool of death shoots toxic thorns at its victims and slowly drains the life of its opponents. Players already labeled the weapon as the ultimate piece in Destiny 1, defeating many guardians with just a few shots.
It also made its entrance in Destiny 2, but not as powerful as it was back then. Players often wished for a catalyst because the weapon was lacking that certain something to keep up with the new weapons. The fans of the shooter have waited for many years, but now it should be over – Bungie has announced a catalyst for Season 23, and it’s actually quite good.
Have you missed the trailer for Season 22? Then we have the right video for you:
Start video
Destiny 2: Lightfall Season 22 – „Witch’s Season“
Players have long hoped for a catalyst – Soon it will be here
What has Bungie announced? Bungie has called the Thorn as a guest in the latest TWaB. According to the developers, it was time for one of the iconic weapons from the loot shooter to receive a catalyst, and which candidate would be better suited than the Thorn itself.
This is supposed to increase the weapon’s strength in PvP and also bring about a change in the base behavior, making the use in PvE more enjoyable.
The collection of remnants can overload the magazine by up to 40 shots maximum.
This is what the catalyst can do after its update on January 9, 2024: The catalyst then adds +15 additional points to the range, +5 to stability, and +5 effectiveness in the air. Achieving kills or picking up a remnant grants additional range, handling, and mobility.
What does the community say about the catalyst? Players are excited at every corner of the loot shooter. On Reddit, players comment with the following statements:
GSAV_Crimson: ‘This is exactly what I wanted from the catalyst. It’s literally perfect.’
iconorcz: ‘I’ve mainly played this since Forsaken; it looks like nothing will change. What a catalyst, nothing is better than being overwhelmed with stats.’
Neat_On_The_Rocks: ‘OH YES. With ‘The Final Shape,’ they are striving for 100% nostalgia. They’re intentionally introducing an OG Thorn meta alongside The Final Shape. Honestly, I think it’s brilliant. This catalyst is everything the Thorn needed. […].’
But even experts like Aztecross already know that Thorn will be meta in Season 23. So if you occasionally play your rounds in PvP, you should keep the Thorn in mind. It will be a strong option, especially if you want to apply pressure on your opponents.
What do you think of the catalyst? Do you think the upcoming change is strong, or did you expect more? Let us know in the comments!
This week, activities are rotating in Destiny 2, and it’s time to find a new catalyst and another cat. However, it might slowly become quieter, as all official announcements from Season 23 are now completed. Nevertheless, MyMMO will tell you what is planned for this week by Bungie and beyond.
This is happening this week: It is week 7 of Season 23, and the Guardians of Destiny 2 are currently doing everything they can to have a special last wish granted that allows them to follow the Witness.
The exotic constellation mission continues, allowing you to gain the next catalyst for the bow Wishender, which is hidden in the Black Garden. So locate the sky anomaly and complete the Exo mission Cursed on Legendary.
Additionally, the seasonal quest All Good Wishes ends this week, and the top node for crowning the Conqueror title will be available.
Lord Saladin has already left the Tower and will not return until January 23. This will also be the last Iron Banner of Season 23.
Another flashback event is taking place in the Eververse, bringing back armors and cosmetics from the Season of the Unending.
Of course, activities are rotating again, which means the clocks are being reset and you can go hunting again. MyMMO provides you with an overview of all rotations this week of Season 23.

More power level comes automatically: There will likely be no grinding for power level in Season 23 either. The hard power level cap in Destiny 2 has remained unchanged at 1,810 for several seasons. Thus, no player is forced to perform at their peak every week but levels up automatically at all activities of the artifact level.

Destiny 2 is also paying close attention during the winter break to what the loot shooter needs to satisfy everyone. For this reason, there is a new update today that specifically addresses your wishes and brings several improvements. MeinMMO has the details that Destiny 2 players should not miss.
Update history:
6:25 PM: In our Weekly Reset, you will learn what is happening in Destiny 2 this week. Meanwhile, the patch notes have also arrived. We will link them at the end of this article.
6:00 PM: The update is here. It is 182.3 MB on PC. After downloading, you can restart the game and try to log in.
3:25 PM: Bungie’s servers have just gone offline for the update a bit later than planned. Players have been removed from all activities and must now wait until the Weekly Reset. You can find the complete schedule further down in the article.
This is what you need to know today: While Bungie is officially still on winter break and players should not expect major announcements until January 18th, that doesn’t mean the Destiny 2 team is sitting idle. Accordingly, an update has been announced for today that brings some important changes to the game and relates to your wishes and hints.
Moreover, based on player feedback, several changes will be made to the PvP mode Checkmate.
There could be further changes that are currently still on Bungie’s to-do list. So keep an eye on this article, as MeinMMO will keep you updated during the downtime.
For the Guardians, everything is at stake in June in the new DLC The Final Shape:
Start video
Destiny 2: The Final Shape – The last DLC of the first saga
Maintenance on January 9 – All times for server downtime
These times are important today: Bungie always keeps you informed via Twitter/X about any planned downtime for Destiny 2. Today, the servers will be unavailable for 2 hours and 45 minutes.
Here is the exact schedule for the maintenance:
The background maintenance starts at 2:00 PM on all platforms.
At around 3:15 PM, the servers will go offline. Players will be automatically kicked from the game.
During the downtime, Bungie will gradually roll out update 7.3.0.5 so that players on all platforms can download and install it.
At 6:00 PM, the shooter MMO should be back online, and you can log in again.
The maintenance will continue in the background until 8:00 PM.
Things to consider during downtimes: As long as the background maintenance is ongoing, there may be connectivity issues in the game. Additionally, there may occasionally be queues when logging in, as Bungie only gradually unlocks access to the servers to avoid problems from high server load. It may also take longer for you to be back in the game.
What changes today: Every Guardian can report bugs or dissatisfaction directly to Bungie. The developer adds these and its own bugs, errors, and issues to its to-do list. There, the things that will soon be fixed are noted.
The following items are currently on Bungie’s to-do list:
Bungie’s text chat filters are currently being tested. Players who encounter unexpected filtering behavior are asked to report it via a special form.
With the release of update 7.3.0.1 on December 5, a bug was fixed that allowed Guardians to jump out of an activity without a corresponding user interface or full fireteam support.
This fix is scheduled to be undone in a January update, allowing for the status quo for vault access to be maintained.
Bungie’s goal is to allow the entire fireteam to access the vault from anywhere in an update after The Final Shape.
The health of the bubble created by the glaive “Blade of Action” is lower than intended.
Guardians currently do not receive health from devouring while they have a Nova Warp super activated.
Healing rifts can stop healing players after applying a shield.
There is a stray champion in the Vanguard Ops version of the Psi-Ops Battleground: Cosmodrome.
Buying gifts of the dragon in Riven’s hideout while other players activate the portal leads to an extremely loud noise.
Defeating Broken Knights too quickly in the Warlord’s Ruin can prevent players from progressing in the encounter.
The tracker for flawless solo completions of the Warlord’s Ruin uses an incorrect name for the dungeon in the description.
Weapons Master engrams obtained by Guardians do not appear in the engram tracker.
“Find fireteam…” appears on the screen for verifying a friend’s invitation, even when the fireteam finder is not being used.
Checkpoints are not always saved when returning to orbit in activities with fireteam finder.
Characters in the chat of the fireteam finder may appear somewhat blocked.
Some texts of the fireteam finder are not visible in languages other than English.
Some menu items in the fireteam finder may sometimes appear empty.
The weekly 100,000-point challenge in the Twisting may not reset successfully.
Guardians on the level of the Polysemy activity of the seasonal quest cannot start or enter the activity together with other Guardians who have already completed it.
The Exotic Dragonbreath Catalyst quest does not progress as expected in seasonal activities.
Certain triumphs in the Warlord’s Ruin grant incorrect rewards. Guardians who have earned these triumphs will receive the corresponding rewards in a future update.
Blinded Source runs of level 4 grant less progress on the seasonal challenge “A City Built by a Wish” than lower-level runs.
Weapons Master engrams do not appear in the engram tracker.
Last but not least: Player name changes are not indefinitely customizable through bungie.net. Many “number guardians” are also still waiting for the return of the option to change their player name again, rather than receiving the message “You have no name changes available.”
What is in the patch notes? Bungie will publish the official patch notes with a list of all changes of the update. A complete overview of all fixed problems and improvements will therefore only be available this evening after the update is live.
As soon as this happens, we will update our article for you and link to the patch notes. Because these may change retroactively or be corrected by Bungie.
That was all the information about today’s update. The winter break may be a quiet time, but Bungie proves that they are also actively working on the development and improvement of Destiny 2 during this time. The community also thrives on the diversity of player experiences, so let us know how you find the latest improvements for the world of Guardians. Or would you rather give your opinion on the major boss of darkness who is currently not well-received because he prefers to chill in the Traveler: Destiny 2 fans expect more from the big boss of darkness: “Has done nothing but open a portal”

Sometimes stats on a mod are not everything. This is also the case in this example. Some mods in CoD MW3 may look good at first, but will definitely cause your death.
We have updated the article on 01/09/2024 at 4:30 PM and provided information on why especially beginners can fall into the trap here. We have also changed the image.
Which mod is being discussed? A thread on Reddit recently caused some stir. In it, the user Karma_Doesnt_Matter points out that the visible laser modifications that can be attached to various weapons in the game will lead to your certain death. There are different types of lasers, some of which are always on.
The laser modifications that are always on reveal your position, especially when you are about to go around a corner. Opponents will see your laser first and can already aim at the corner before you appear.
Why are the modifications popular among beginners? The problem is that the laser modifications provide good stats on paper when you equip them. But the best stats are of little use when opponents already know where you are. This is why beginners tend to choose these modifications and fall into the trap. Beginners should rather choose other modifications to remain less conspicuous.

Even the cutest outfits can betray you in CoD MW3
What other things can give you away? On Reddit, other things are mentioned that can reveal you. For example, the flashy costumes like cats, or those that glow.
They are simply so conspicuous compared to normal camouflage patterns that you get spotted right away. Even if the costumes do not provide improved stats, some players wear them just for aesthetic reasons.
What do the players say about it? On Reddit, players generally agree that the lasers look good on paper, but the corner problem makes them rather bad. Knights_Up describes the extreme situation: “This guy is using cheats! He knows where I am all the time!!! This game loves cheaters!!!” Said the guy who is dressed as a cat and running around with two SMGs with pink lasers that are a kilometer long.”
SlammedOptima thinks: “Honestly, at least the cat is wearing military gear and the colors are somewhat muted. The real problems are the characters that literally glow. You are literally wearing a “shoot here” sign.”
Other comments prefer not to let players know that the lasers are so easily visible. CAPSL0CKS0N69 says: “You need to delete this post, buddy. There’s nothing to see here, kids. Put your lasers back on and go about your business.”
In EA FC 24 you can vote for your Team Of The Year (TOTY). Among the candidates, there are also a few very experienced players. We take a look at the oldest possible TOTY for the year 2023.
Who determines the candidates? The nomination list was established by EA Sports. Not all players from Ultimate Team are eligible for the TOTY. The criteria for selecting the candidates are not precisely known. However, generally speaking, the best players of the year 2023 are eligible, as evidenced by the performance data of these players.
For each position, you can choose candidates who have been in the game for a long time and accordingly show a certain age. Here we present the eleven oldest players.
The starting eleven of the oldest candidates for the TOTY in EA FC 24
How did we set up? We follow EA Sports’ guidelines, which have arranged the TOTY voting in a 4-3-3 formation. We start with the goalkeeper and the defenders.
Our selection was based on a very simple rule. Only the oldest players among the nominees made it to our list.
Goalkeeper + Defense:
Wojciech Szczęsny(Juventus Turin) – 33 years: As a goalkeeper, the Pole is the oldest player eligible for selection, but overall he is among the youngest on our list. Especially in the goalkeeper position, we have seen even older keepers like Manuel Neuer or Gianluigi Buffon as candidates for the TOTY in recent years.
Dante(OGC Nice) – 40 years: From the youngest to the oldest on our list. The Brazilian good-naturedly probably never expected this. At 40 years old, the former Bundesliga star is nominated for the TOTY once again. Although a spot in the TOTY might be tight, Dante shows that age is just a number.
Mats Hummels (Borussia Dortmund) – 35 years: The 2014 World Champion recently celebrated his 35th birthday. Many critics had written off Hummels due to his speed deficiencies, but in 2023 he showed what is still possible with his wealth of experience and footballing class, even at an advanced footballer age.
Nicolás Otamendi (Benfica Lisbon) – 35 years: Another experienced player who can now also call himself a World Champion since 2022. Otamendi has always been seen as a real tough guy, and no player should enjoy playing against the Argentine defensive specialist. Even at this age, the defender doesn’t seem to want to become calmer, and certainly not worse.
Jesús Navas(Sevilla FC) – 38 years: The 3 previous defenders can afford to compensate for their loss of speed with good positioning. Jesús Navas cannot afford that as a right-back and rushes up and down the line today just like he did 20 years ago. Even though he may not reach the speed of his best years, the Spaniard still dazzles with good dribbling and strong crosses.
Midfield:
Luka Modrić(Real Madrid) – 38 years: What all of those on this list have in common is that age seems not to matter to them. However, considering the mileage of the Croatian after each game, we have to highlight him especially. Modrić covers an incredible amount of distance in every game and is found everywhere on the pitch. His unique passing precision does not diminish with continued playtime nor with advancing footballer age.
Toni Kroos(Real Madrid) – 34 years: Just in early January, the most successful German footballer of all time celebrated his 34th birthday. EA Sports rewards him with a nomination for the TOTY. He would have earned this nomination even without EA’s generosity. In a star-studded team of the Royal Club, Kroos is still the most important playmaker in midfield. Perhaps we will soon see the World Champion back in the national team.
İlkay Gündoğan (FC Barcelona) – 33 years: The chances for a TOTY nomination have perhaps never been better for the captain of the German national team. For this, Gündoğan had to turn 33 years old first. In his last season for Manchester City, he led his team as captain to the championship and even to the first Champions League success in the club’s history.
Attack:
Cristiano Ronaldo (Al-Nassr) –38 years: Who can claim at 38 years old to be the leading scorer in 2023? That’s right, Cristiano Ronaldo. While the Portuguese is no longer seen on the grand stage of club football since his transfer to Saudi Arabia, he knows how to shine with goals in his new footballing home.
Lionel Messi (Inter Miami) –36 years: His eternal rival Lionel Messi has also withdrawn from European top football and is closing his career in the American MLS. If one can even call it that, as Messi, even at 36 years old, still has a great passion for football and immediately impressed in his first matches with goals and assists.
Karim Benzema (Al-Ittihad) – 36 years: Benzema played a significant role for Real Madrid until last season and was the ultimate scorer for the Royals. Now, Benzema takes it a bit easier in the Saudi Pro League like Ronaldo. However, the Frenchman still knows how to score goals.
This is the oldest TOTY in EA FC 24:
The oldest TOTY in EA FC 24
The total age of all players adds up to 397 years. The TOTY with the oldest stars in EA FC 24 has an average age of around 36 years. These players are simply like fine wine.
At the end of our list, we ask you: Would you choose one of our oldie candidates for your TOTY? Feel free to let us know in the comments. A FIFA expert recently also voted for his personal TOTY. Let’s just say he relied more on younger players. But feel free to check it out for yourself: German FIFA expert builds his TOTY, but 2 of the biggest stars are not included

Many influencers have long since emigrated. One saves on taxes, enjoys nicer weather, and has peace away from annoying fans. However, Twitch-streamer MontanaBlack still lives in Germany, and now he reveals why.
Who is it about? Marcel “MontanaBlack” Eris is one of the largest German streamers on Twitch. Over 5 million followers follow him on the platform. In a Twitch clip published on TikTok, the streamer now talks about the reasons that keep him in Germany.
To better understand the background of Marcel “MontanaBlack” Eris, you can watch a video about his life here:

No matter how beautiful it is abroad, MontanaBlack wants to stay with his family
Why doesn’t the streamer want to emigrate? The streamer could lead a nice life abroad. Many other influencers have long emigrated and save taxes abroad or enjoy the sunshine on the beach without being besieged by fans.
However, streamer MontanaBlack stays in Germany because of his grandparents. He has a close family bond with his grandparents. They helped him through the toughest times in his life and were always there for the streamer.
No matter how much sun I soak up, on the coast of Spain. No matter how many millions of euros I save, in Madeira. No matter how much better and nicer I would have it abroad, brother a day with my grandma, when she is not there anymore, is priceless. I can’t buy that back with money. Do you understand what I mean? That’s why every day with the family is worth much, much more than emigrating, or sun, summer, and beach.

MontanaBlack often has deep moments, which is why his viewers appreciate him a lot. You can watch the entire stream excerpt here:
Other influencers like Unge have long emigrated. But he also faces problems. The streamer and YouTuber, who once rode across Germany on a longboard, took an 8-month break from streaming and only returned at the end of last year. He shared his huge advertising revenues with the community.

In Pokémon GO there are plenty of strong Pokémon to catch, but Bidoof is not one of them. Nevertheless, it has a place in the hearts of many trainers – especially when it shimmers.
How strong is Bidoof? Basically, not at all. In Pokémon GO, it is useless in battles against gyms and raids, as well as in the PvP league, which also applies to its evolution Bibarel.
In the main games, Bidoof is also known for its notorious uselessness in battles. However, it was often carried by many players because it could learn moves like Cut and Rock Smash, thus having a utility outside of battles while exploring the world.
In Pokémon GO, however, those abilities do not matter. Still, one frequently sees posts from players highlighting their Bidoof catch – and the shimmering variant is even revered as a “god” by some. But why?

What is behind Bidoof, the Pokémon god?
At the very beginning of the fourth generation of games, one encounters countless Bidoof. Almost all Pokémon trainers at that time had seen and probably also caught Bidoof. It was useless, but cute.
Over time, a kind of meme-ification of Bidoof occurred, as the almost characteristic uselessness of the Pokémon led to an ironic treatment of the creature (for example, on reddit). In short, it was massively exaggerated that Bidoof was somehow the best of all Pokémon.
What started as a small meme was fed more and more over the years. Thus, Bidoof became increasingly popular, with fan art depicting it as a god-like creature. A particularly defining example would be the series “Pokémon Rusty” on the YouTube channel “Dorkly”, which is about a massively incompetent Pokémon trainer.
The trainer “Rusty” puts the entire world at risk through his reckless carelessness, paired with the unwavering will to become a Pokémon master, also because he inadvertently breeds a “perfect”, shimmering, god-like Bidoof that also strays from the right path.
You can find the series on YouTube:

This massively overpowered Bidoof named “Peanut Butter” is now somewhat of a blueprint for the “Bidoof is the Pokémon god” meme, as in the series it becomes – at least for a while – the ruler over the entire reality.
But it can also be kinder: Pokémon itself has brought Bidoof to the forefront again and again over the years – for example, in the “Animation Bidoof’s Big Stand”:

The topic has been making waves repeatedly. Even the official Pokémon GO account participated in 2018 when the Sinnoh Pokémon were introduced to the game. They asked on Twitter which monsters trainers wanted to celebrate first from the Sinnoh region – and only offered Bidoof, Bidoof, and Bidoof as answer options (via twitter.com).
Over time, more and more examples arose where Bidoof was highlighted. In 2021, Bidoof even took over the game for days. During the Bidoof Week, more and more Bidoof appeared in the game day by day, bringing various moves with them. It even appeared in raids, attracting a lot of attention.
Why can Mauzi actually speak in the Pokémon series?
So: What is behind the fact that fans revere Bidoof as a “god”? Basically, a mix of humorous exaggeration and a meme that has increasingly become self-sustaining over the years, turning into a kind of self-fulfilling prophecy.
That Bidoof is obviously the best Pokémon ever these days – we probably don’t need to discuss further. Do you want to catch other Pokémon that although not as divine as Bidoof, are still good attackers in Pokémon GO? Then you can find here the overview of the best attackers in Pokémon GO.

MeinMMO editor Benedict Grothaus is a huge fan of Warhammer. He has now completed Warhammer 40k: Rogue Trader, the latest role-playing game in the franchise. The ending was… disillusioning. Because despite all efforts to be “good,” the world is just brutal.
Spoiler Warning: I will discuss the “Iconoclast” ending of Rogue Trader and some secret developments here. You have been warned!
Rogue Trader was released in December 2023, which I have been looking forward to for years. After about 4 weeks, I had completed the game and am… still not quite sure what to make of the ending.
This time, however, I didn’t want to be an ass – an exception in the world of Warhammer. Instead, I based my entire playthrough on helping everyone and being as fair as possible.
However, the game apparently thinks such behavior does not deserve a happy ending. And it has a point… it’s just not Warhammer.
Start video
Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader – The release trailer for the role-playing game
May I introduce? Isabell von Valancius: Protector of Mankind and Friend of the Xenos
What makes the game stand out is the morality. There is no classic “good” and “evil,” but only different interpretations of the situation. Rogue Trader can be played in three different ways in this regard:
Dogmatists blindly follow all the rules of the Imperium: everything inhuman is destroyed, every violation is punished by death.
Heretics follow Chaos, believe only in their own strength, and engage with demonic powers.
Iconoclasts are the “good guys,” they help where they can and try to promote peace. True heroes.
On a whim, I decided to play as an Iconoclast and stick to that behavior until the end. Every person I could save, I saved. When in doubt, I resorted to save-scumming.
Even Xenos I took under my wing, made peace with the Aeldari, and helped a Drukhari to embark on a path of righteousness. Someone should try to top that!
My only dogmatic act was an Exterminatus on a world that would otherwise have succumbed to Chaos. I simply couldn’t allow that.
A Happy Ending in Warhammer? I can definitely achieve that!
For over 100 hours, I built my own utopia. There was coexistence between Xenos and humans and even something resembling a budding friendship between the races.
I banished the brutal dogma of killing anyone who deviates even slightly from the faith in the Emperor. Chaos was also purged: anyone who worshiped the dark gods was either redeemed – or killed in the worst case. The only slightly “freer” interpretations of property – in other words, piracy – I let slide. After all, I’m not a total police state.
In the very end, I even accidentally unlocked the hidden ending: through a long quest chain, I had my own god by my side. One that I created myself to protect my realm.
But none of that helps when the whole world is against you.
After I fought the final battles, the long-awaited ending finally came. In Owlcat games like Rogue Trader, this means: a long series of book excerpts that narrate what the future looks like. I was absolutely good, so there must be peace, friendship, and flowers.
Not.
Although my subjects celebrated my deeds and eventually even worshipped me, Big E didn’t like that at all. As soon as it became known that I was redeeming heretics, providing refuge for the persecuted, and even sheltering Xenos, the entire Imperium came with a huge fleet.
Directly on the second page of my conclusion story, an army appeared that invaded me and bombed the entire galaxy into oblivion. My god provided protection, but eventually, everything was still lost.
Even this very god eventually went insane and decided to conduct his own cleansing somewhere in another part of the galaxy. Several worlds became his sacrifice.
And that’s not even the worst part. Every single person I helped met a cruel death.
My own god! Very useful until he is not anymore.
And if they are not dead, they are still dying today
Rogue Trader provides several companions who support me on my journey as well as NPCs with whom I often interact. Important names and factions that I dealt with – much to their regret:
A pirate faction that I was able to divert from Chaos eventually started marauding because my reputation with them was not high enough. They were annihilated.
The lord of one of my most important worlds and a former pirate became a bit more righteous and took good care of his people. He was simply shot.
My Battle Sister was too fanatical in her faith and started to kill everyone she deemed a heretic – which was eventually everyone.
The family of my steward became the target of several intrigues, and he himself had the head of his youngest granddaughter sent to him in a box – by the Xenos I had helped.
After a few concluding pages, I actually lost the desire to continue reading. It was only towards the end that I realized that this was, of course, what had to happen. After all, this is Warhammer and not Peaceland.
Even though the ending was quite disillusioning and somewhat frustrating: on closer inspection, I got exactly what I should expect from Warhammer. And that is fabulous. You just have to know how to deal with it. That’s why I’m now playing again… as a heretic.
I really can’t be all that evil in Rogue Trader. It is, after all, Warhammer, and of course, I will be destroyed if I want to overturn 40,000-year-old doctrines in a few months. For such absurd and sometimes blunt things I love Warhammer and always wish for more, that we had a real World of Warhammer.

Warlocks are having a hard time in the Season of Discoveries from WoW Classic. They are insulted. The reason is simply one thing: silly.
World of Warcraft Classic currently excites many fans with the “Season of Discoveries.” There are many innovations such as “Level-Up Raids”, new abilities for all classes, and a slowly increasing level cap. However, not everything is nice and pleasant. Some players have an extreme expectation of their warlock colleagues – and they insult them mercilessly when they don’t immediately respond to their requests.
In his Reddit post “Loot from 45 minutes of semi-absent in Undercity”, the warlock Commander_Corndog shows what kind of messages he receives – and what kind of expectations complete strangers apparently have of him.
What is it about? The whisper messages are about characters wishing to be summoned by the warlock. This is a special ability of the warlock that greatly facilitates travel – provided the warlock has enough supporters.
Especially the expectation of the whisperers seems to meet a lot of misunderstanding. Not only must the warlock have soul shards in stock, he also has to actively seek two other players to carry out the teleportation. For a measly tip of a few silver and often paired with unfriendly comments, very few seem to take it on.
After the warlock declines or simply does not respond – because he was perhaps afk – insults immediately followed.

What kind of comments are those? Some of the comments have been shown by Commander_Corndog with hidden names. Here are some excerpts from the dialogues:
“Can you teleport me to Undercity? Tip 50 silver.” “I don’t have shards on me, sorry.” “Lol useless warlock, enjoy your game, idiot.”
Another one chimed in while the warlock was afk:
UNDERCITY SUMMONING?? HELLO? [Racist insult]
These are still the harmless examples. In other whisper messages, there are racist comments. One even searches for the name of the warlock and believes he has found his Reddit profile to leave transphobic comments – even though that was not the correct person:
In summary, this is a lot of hostility for a stranger, other player not doing what one would like.
This is what the community says: In the subreddit, many are quite shocked about the harshness and wording of some players. Especially the openly racist or transphobic comments are severely condemned. Most are sure that this is a direct reason for a “perma-ban” and hope that the punishment comes quickly.
Others are amused by the expectations of people and find them lofty:
“Lmao, don’t people know that you still need clickers?” – nojumbad
“Even if people offered me 2-3 gold, I would turn them down. Why should I spend time looking for 2 clickers, paying them for their help, and then hoping that the buyer actually pays? Just so some lazy guy saves 5 minutes of travel time.” – axcli
“I know people just say everything on the internet because they fear no consequences… but this is seriously just sad and concerning.” – Xander3Zero
“As a mage, I’ve had people wanting me to cancel my flight path, land, walk to them, and bring them water.” – IntuneHatesMe
Is it like this everywhere in Classic? No, many comments confirm this as well. Some say that it is much more relaxed on certain realms. Moreover, many assume that this is a temporary state currently affecting mainly warlocks. Because in the “Season of Discoveries”, warlocks are currently the only ones who can offer other characters a quick travel option. Mages learn their portals only later – when the level cap increases with an upcoming patch.
A Pokémon fan has published drawings of weapons based on Pokémon. You can find out what this looks like here.
What is it about? On Reddit, the trainer KosukeSukeP has published drawings he created. These are weapons such as staffs, swords, and clubs. The special thing about these is that they are heavily inspired by Pokémon and have a high recognition factor in their design.
Examples of weapons created by the trainer include a Snubbull, Vibrava, and Libelldra staff, war clubs based on Nidoqueen and Nidoking, as well as a Vulpix fan and the corresponding Ninetales staff. The evolution line of Budew has also been used as a template and is manifested in the form of a Budew and Roselia staff and a Roserade rapier.

The cute but evil game “Cult of the Lamb” was a real surprise hit on Steam in 2022. For the latest update, fans wanted just one thing, and soon they will actually get it.
What is Cult of the Lamb? The game is a mix of action roguelite and management sim. As an adorable little sheep, you narrowly escape becoming a sacrificial lamb and quickly establish your own not-so-cute cult.
What kind of update is this? On November 23, the latest update for Cult of the Lamb titled “Sins of the Flesh” (in German “Sünden des Fleisches”) was announced via Steam. This made fans think only of one thing, and the rumor about a “sex update” spread.
Now, the developer is turning its promise into action and announces the release date for the long-awaited free update. “Sins of the Flesh” is set to be released on January 16 for PC, PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch.
Furthermore, we get a glimpse of what awaits us in the accompanying trailer:

Cult of the Lamb – Trailer shows new features for the update ‘Sins of the Flesh’
What exactly does the update contain? “Sins of the Flesh” offers more than just sheer fleshly desire. The update is expected to include several new features:
A new progression system brings more complexity to managing your own cult. As members of an exclusive circle, your most loyal followers engage in various sins while also receiving practical bonuses.
You can improve cult life by building better buildings or fertilizing your fields with shiny dung.
With the new firearms, you can now effectively counter enemy hordes.
Thanks to the new tailoring system, every cultist can wear their own outfit. There are 23 different styles to choose from.
If two of your followers are particularly affectionate, they might “accidentally” find an egg. With the right care, it won’t be long before loyal offspring for the cult comes forth.
Admittedly, the game may not be quite as scandalous with the egg-laying cultists. Still, the update promises some new features that should be useful for your cult on the path to world domination.
