Student deciphers ancient charred scroll using a 100 euro graphics card, wins 36,500 euros in prize money

Martin Vollert 27. November 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

A computer science student has managed to make an ancient scroll readable. He used a 6-year-old Nvidia graphics card for this. This GTX 1070 can currently be purchased second-hand for around 100 euros. The prize money for his work amounts to a hefty 36,500 euros.

Through the discovery of millennia-old treasures, we learn a lot about life in the ancient era. In 1750, there was such a find in Italy. However, at that time, some of the discovered scrolls were carelessly opened and forever destroyed. Now, those that were not opened back then are being examined.

The scrolls were completely carbonized due to a volcanic eruption. Only a few years ago, with today’s technology, an X-ray method was developed to digitize the scrolls. Words, let alone entire texts, could not be deciphered using this method.

With the Vesuvius Challenge, a call was made to further decrypt these digital scrolls. A computer science student is among the successful participants. For his work, he used an old graphics card and an AI learning model. A company has already bred an artificial intelligence, combining real brain cells with computer chips that can play games.

Nvidia GTX 1070 and AI technology make student 36,500 euros richer

What is it about? In the Vesuvius Challenge, participants have been invited to decipher ancient scrolls from the Roman Empire. These 2000-year-old scrolls were heavily carbonized during a volcanic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in the cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum. In the attempt to open the parchment, they would be completely destroyed. The only way to read the content is to digitize them.

This has now been achieved by Luke Farritor, a 21-year-old computer science student. He used the computing power of an old Nvidia GTX 1070 graphics card for this. The card was originally released in 2016 and is currently traded second-hand for around 100 euros.

How did the student go about it? The student used an X-ray scan of the scroll as a basis. To make the ink on the papyrus visible, he employed an AI-based learning model. The calculations were in turn carried out by the graphics card.

In this way, he was able to identify the word ‘πορφυρας’. This means something like ‘purple dye’ or ‘violet cloths’. Luke Farritor submitted the results of his work for verification. After successful confirmation by a team of developers and papyrologists, he was rewarded with a prize of about 36,500 euros.

von Benedikt Schlotmann

Why is there this competition? X-ray scans of the scrolls have already been created. The ink on the scrolls is carbon-based, just like the papyrus used. This means that the ink provides too low an X-ray contrast. The words written with the ink cannot be deciphered.

Under the leadership of Nat Friedman, the former CEO of GitHub, the Vesuvius Challenge was launched. The competition is funded through private donations. The prize money is structured in different tiers. The more words are discovered, the greater the reward for the discoverer. Details can be found on scrollprize.org.

Are there other winners? Yes, in the meantime, other participants have also been successful. They were able to read individual words using other digital methods. The prize money paid out here was significantly lower, at around 9,100 euros, compared to Luke Farritor’s total.

The grand prize of nearly 640,000 euros has, however, still not been claimed by anyone. To do so, at least four separate passages with continuous and plausible text must be deciphered. Each passage must also be at least 140 characters long.

Elvis’s daughter did not like Tom Cruise, wanted “never to be in a room with him again”

Christoph Waldboth 27. November 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

Tom Cruise is one of the biggest movie stars in the world. Some even see him as one of the last great Hollywood actors. Not least due to his membership in Scientology, he is also often criticized.

What is the situation? Both are stars in their own leagues: Tom Cruise is currently one of the most popular actors worldwide. Especially due to his great passion and dedication to projects like the action spectacle “Top Gun 2: Maverick,” he is considered alongside directors like Christopher Nolan a savior of cinema in its classic form. However, he is best known for his involvement in the “Mission Impossible” series, whose latest installment can already be streamed.

Lisa Marie Presley, on the other hand, initially became known through her famous father, the “King” Elvis himself, before she made a name for herself as a singer. Throughout her career, she released three studio albums and a number of singles and was also charitable for the Elvis Presley Charitable Foundation. Lisa Marie Presley passed away in January 2023 after a cardiac arrest.

The two met 20 years ago

Both Cruise and Presley are or were members of Scientology. The movement is discussed very critically internationally. In Germany, it has been monitored by the Constitutional Protection Agency since 1997, with a report from 2016 stating:

The SO (Scientology Organization) aims for a society without general and equal elections and rejects the democratic legal system.
Constitutional Protection Report 2016 (Summary): “Scientology Organization”

Nevertheless, several renowned stars are still members of Scientology today, some of whom do not make it a secret. Just like Lisa Marie Presley or Tom Cruise.

In an interview shortly before her death, Presley spoke about a meeting with Cruise that took place about twenty years ago. Although she did not explain what exactly happened at the meeting, she drew an unmistakable conclusion:

I really hate Tom. I met him 20 years ago. I said that I never want to be in a room with him again.
Lisa Marie Presley (Source: radaronline.com)

So there must have been a clash between the two stars. However, Presley got along much better with John Travolta, another very well-known Scientology member. It was he who allegedly persuaded Lisa Marie and her mother to join the organization.

Even Tom Cruise seems to be a report by the Mirror indicates a member no longer as loyal. He had been absent from the British Scientology headquarters for almost three years. This circumstance led to the assumption that he was slowly distancing himself from the organization. He would not be the first. Other celebrities like Brad Pitt or Will Smith have left Scientology after years of membership.

7 vs. Wild Season 3: Fritz Meinecke confronts new production with “It’s a complete lie and misinformation”

Cedric Holmeier 27. November 2023 Reading time 3 minutes

In his latest “Reaction” to the making-of of 7 vs. Wild Season 3, format founder Fritz Meinecke (34) voices sharp criticism. In the “Behind the Scenes,” things are misrepresented and beautified.

Which format is being discussed? Even before the YouTube launch of Season 3 of 7 vs. Wild, there is the series “Behind the Scenes” where fans get insights behind the scenes. In the current episode of the format, it is about the arrival of the participants and the crisis that almost led to the cancellation of Season 3.

On the weekend, the inventor of the series, Fritz Meinecke, released his React to the behind-the-scenes look. However, he disagrees with the representation.

One of the participants in Season 3 is Twitch streamer Jens “Knossi” Knossalla. You can see more about him in our video.

From the Witness Stand with Barbara Salesch to the King of Twitch – Career and Life of Knossi

Fritz Meinecke: “That’s just factually a lie”

What did Fritz Meinecke claim was misrepresented? Fritz Meinecke states in his React that he was told from the very beginning that the participating teams could make a campfire there normally. A permit from the First Nations, who own the land where the shooting took place, was supposedly available.

In the making-of for Season 3, however, it was stated that they always wanted to use a so-called Bush Box. A Bush Box is a type of fire bowl that makes a controlled fire easier.

“That’s a complete lie and misinformation.”
Fritz Meinecke

According to Meinecke, the changes in the laws are not the reason for the Bush Box. According to Meinecke, the production company did not obtain the said permit in writing, and the First Nations then changed their opinion.

Why are there so many problems with the production this year? According to an entry in the commercial register, Fritz Meinecke sold the brand 7 vs. Wild to “CaliVision”. This step, according to a statement video by Fritz Meinecke some time ago, was taken because the pressure and costs of production were no longer manageable.

To enable fans and himself to have a third season, he made this decision. Meinecke claims to be 99% a participant and has almost no decision-making power over the series. Fritz Meinecke is not the only one who expressed such negative views about the production; Papaplatte would also “under no circumstances” participate again in 7 vs. Wild.

This important moment is missing in the “Behind the Scenes” The “7 vs. Wild founder” is visibly astonished in the React about the representation of events and the timeline shown in the making-of. He misses the so-called fire briefing, which took place before the events shown in the video and was the actual trigger for the crisis.

“There is now the fire briefing. And then we are shown a gas grill. With gas cartridge, with orange tarp, is spread out to us and we are explained how it works.”

At this moment, Fritz and his teammate Survival Mattin thought it was all a joke. But the sobering realization came quickly, the gas grill was the only solution to make fire, as a grill is legally not an open flame.

Crisis at 7 vs. Wild: Season 3 was almost canceled due to forest fires – How it could still take place

von Cedric Holmeier

How did the two-time 7 vs. Wild winner react to the gas grill? Fritz Meinecke was appalled, as he reveals in the React. He simply refused to start the new season with a gas grill. According to his statement, this led to the meeting shown in the video, where a postponement of the suspension by one day was suggested. During that time, they wanted to find an alternative solution.

Which item was not shown? Because open fire was not possible at the filming location, the teams ultimately received a set of items to ensure a safe fire. According to Fritz Meinecke, the making-of of the successful series, however, lacks fire starters, which all teams had in their fire kit without their prior knowledge. A solution was thus chosen bypassing the candidates, which diminishes the true character of the survival show.

This might also be the reason why there were no recordings of the items. At least the secret about the bottles has been revealed now.

Ancient MMORPG was shut down after 27 years, now returns after 5 months

Jasmin Beverungen 27. November 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

The Realm Online delighted many fans of the MMORPG genre for 27 years, but the servers were shut down in June 2023. Now the game returns with a new team.

What is The Realm Online?

The Realm Online has been around since 1996 for PC. Even before the term MMORPG was established, the game was developed by Sierra Entertainment.
It is considered the online game that invented the concept of instances. In this MMORPG, there are also turn-based battles.
The servers were shut down in June 2023. At that time, the rights to the game were still held by Norseman Games. Realm Worlds LLC, which was responsible for development at that time, wanted to take over the IP, but negotiations failed.

Fortunately, another interested party has emerged: The IP was sold to Virtual World Holdings, who are now giving the game a second life. The servers were turned back on on November 24, 2023.

There are other MMORPGs that have been around for more than 20 years. MeinMMO introduces them to you in a video:

Autoplay

What changes are there? The biggest novelty is the new server (via realmserver.com). In addition to the Free-to-Play server Despothes Grove, there is also the server Mabons Gamble. For this server, you have to pay a monthly fee, which can be paid as follows:

1 month: 4.49 US Dollars
3 months: 12.74 US Dollars
6 months: 23.99 US Dollars
1 year: 44.99 US Dollars

On the server, there are some changes compared to the normal server. For example, there is a new system with ‘Mastery Points’. Using skills increases the ‘Precision Points’ related to the skill.

Furthermore, a new zone event system has been added. The event supports experience points, kills, and item collection for the entire community. You can imagine these events like the events from Guild Wars 2. In such an event, players attempted to lose.

Additionally, many balance adjustments have been made. The complete list can be found in the post from the responsible parties on November 20, 2023.

In future updates, an increase in the maximum level, a modification of the crafting system, and additional quality-of-life features are planned. For the development team, the pay-to-play server is intended to ensure the long-term existence of the MMORPG.

If you are a fan of old-school MMORPGs, you can initially test the free server to see if the game is for you. If you like the title, it is still possible to join the paid server and benefit from the new features.

The possibly largest sci-fi movie of the year is coming soon to Netflix in a “normal” and a “brutal” version

Marie Friske 27. November 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

Rebel Moon – Part 1: Child of Fire will soon premiere on Netflix, a massive sci-fi production by director Zack Snyder. In addition to a standard version, there will also be a more brutal version.

What is Rebel Moon – Part 1: Child of Fire about? The orphan Kora lives in an idyllic place on the edge of the galaxy until the colony is occupied one day by the ruler Balisarius and his soldiers.

Kora won’t sit idly by and embarks on a journey to hire fighters: she declares war on the Empire.

The project, with an estimated budget of $166 million, aims to establish a huge sci-fi franchise that will include not just films, but stories in all formats (via Vanity Fair). Series, books, comics, and games are planned.

Here you can see a trailer for Rebel Moon:

“A R-rated sci-fi film of this scale should not exist”

The two parts of the sci-fi epic Rebel Moon are rated PG-13 in the United States, and in Germany, the films will likely be released with a rating of FSK 12. However, director Zack Snyder has always planned an additional version for both parts: an R-rated version.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, the director spoke about the different versions and said:

“I am very proud of the version rated 13 and up, which is the version for a broader audience, because I would say it really covers a great, timeless, mythological framework.”

However, he also wants to ensure that audiences do not miss out on the more adult version, stating: “What we did with the other version is funny and subversive because a sci-fi film with a rating of this scale should not exist.”

In addition to more violence, the alternative version will also provide more insights into the film universe with additional scenes. It will last an hour longer than the standard version.

Pokémon GO: Player collects over 500,000 XP in an hour

Paul Kutzner 27. November 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

Higher, faster, further – this also applies in Pokémon GO. A player recently collected over 500,000 XP in one hour – without friendship level.

9439 XP – per minute? That is the insane average that a Pokémon GO player achieved over 60 minutes, thus collecting the impressive amount of 566,340 XP in one hour.

How did he do it? Every Tuesday, between 6:00 PM and 7:00 PM, a spotlight hour takes place in Pokémon GO. In this hour, there is a Pokémon that appears more frequently and an additional bonus is activated.

This can be, for example, double stardust for catching Pokémon or double candies for sending Pokémon – or even double XP for evolving Pokémon. As in this case.

Spotlight hour + lucky eggs + preparation = gigantic experience points

This spotlight hour bonus was exploited by Reddit user Jimby_E to make a big step towards level 46. As he reports on Reddit, he had previously caught all Pokémon that can be evolved with a small amount of candies solely using Razz Berries.

As examples, he mentions monsters like Gastly, Pidgey, and Wurmple. He tagged all these Pokémon and saved them for this spotlight hour. He also tagged and saved Pokémon for which he had collected enough candies and that he had not yet evolved, in order to take advantage of the bonus for first-time evolving Pokémon.

He then activated a lucky egg at the start of the spotlight hour and after 30 minutes each time, to combine the experience bonus from the lucky eggs with that of the spotlight hour. With this double bonus, he evolved all tagged Pokémon, which earned him the impressive amount of 566,340 XP within 60 minutes.

According to his own statements, he now has 12,273,402 XP of the 15,500,000 XP required for level 46. So, he will still need one or two more spotlight hours to ultimately reach level 46.

What about you? Do you also use the spotlight hours with double experience in this way? And if so: what are your records within the 60 minutes?

This month there is still another spotlight hour upcoming: The one with Ferkuli, which thanks to the XP catch bonus is also a good chance to level up. All other events of November 2023 can be found here.

The new survival game Nightingale is announced for early next year on Steam. In November, over 12,000 players explored the current version of the Victorian fantasy world in a closed playtest. Developer ‘Inflexion Games’ shares a recap with statistics and screenshots from the game.

As a fearless ‘Realmwalker’, you explore the mysterious ‘Fae worlds’ presented in a Victorian style.
The game by ‘Inflexion Games’ is set to launch on February 22, 2024, on Steam.

2000 hours of character creation

Who doesn’t love it? Character creation is essential for personal attachment to your own game character. The testers of Nightingale were pleased to have many options. In a blog post, “Inflexion Games” shares interesting numbers.

What do the statistics say?

On average, players spent almost 10 minutes in the character editor.
36 players took over 90 minutes.
One player managed to tinker with their character for over 8 hours.

The final balance showed: to create the over 11,500 characters, all players spent a whopping 2000 hours in the character editor.

Which heads were particularly popular is shown in an overview:

What was particularly popular? Players spent the most time on the eyes. But an extraordinary detail was also very popular.

In Nightingale, it is indeed possible to give your character a metal tooth. A total of 3000 players used this feature. 309 ‘Realmwalkers’, as the adventurers in the world of Nightingale are called, went so far as to replace all their teeth with a shiny version.

The wild boars are on the loose

Of course, especially in the early stages of a game, bugs occur frequently. So it was in the current test of Nightingale.

Due to a bug, there were reportedly huge rushes of wild boars and wolves that players had to deal with. Over 60,000 animals were eliminated during the playtest, with wild boars being the most affected.

However, most players fell victim to the wolves. Fortunately, you need not worry about being overwhelmed by unwanted wildlife at release. The bug has already been fixed.

What does the game look like otherwise? The game promises a visually impressive Victorian fantasy world. In screenshots, the test players show how they have experienced it.

A powerful weapon in Baldur’s Gate 3 can be easily missed, but you have to be vicious to Shadowheart

Benedict Grothaus 27. November 2023 Reading time 3 minutes

A special axe in Baldur’s Gate 3 can only be obtained if Shadowheart does not accompany you. To even be able to see it, you must follow certain steps. For players, the axe Sethan is considered the “most missable weapon” in the entire game.

Spoiler warning: The unique axe is a hidden weapon that lies behind a small puzzle. If you want to puzzle it out yourself, you should not continue reading. Without a guide, the weapon is nearly impossible to find.

What kind of weapon is this?

Sethan is a +2 two-handed axe with corresponding damage: 1d12+2+Strength and the abilities you can execute with any axe.
In addition, there are special spells you learn by wielding the axe: Weapon of Faith (Axe) at level 6, as well as Reduce.
The weapon is thus ideal for Paladins who specialize in damage or Mystic Knights, even though they belong to the weaker classes.

This is how you get Sethan: The axe is available only late in the game, in Act 3. There it is sold by Ferg Drogher in Rivington. He will only speak to you if you do not have Shadowheart in your party.

If the Shar cleric accompanies you, Ferg will immediately recognize her and want nothing to do with you. He disappears and does not reappear, making the weapon irretrievably lost. That alone is a hurdle since Shadowheart is one of the most popular companions.

On Reddit, the user Silver-Scion has outlined the exact steps you must follow to obtain Sethan:

As soon as you arrive in Rivington, send Shadowheart back to the camp, even if she complains.
Talk to Ferg and do not look at his goods. A bug may prevent you from seeing Sethan otherwise.
Ask Ferg where he gets his goods. You need to make a persuasion roll with DC 18 (which becomes a bit more difficult without Shadowheart).
Ask him to show you his (exotic) goods. You should now be able to buy Sethan.

In the comments, some users claim that you don’t necessarily have to send Shadowheart to the camp. It’s supposedly enough if she stands very, very far away. Furthermore, Ferg should also talk to you if you follow the “dark” path for Shadowheart and have let her ascend to the Dark Justiciar. If you want to be sure, you should still leave her in the camp.

Baldur’s Gate 3: How to sell items to merchants at a profit

The “most missable weapon” in the game – How powerful is Sethan?

In terms of pure stats, Sethan is rather mediocre. Generally, greatswords are stronger than great axes as they roll 2d6 and thus offer higher minimum damage. The advantage is that axes, due to their maneuvers, are particularly well-suited against groups of enemies.

Additionally, the special abilities alone can make Sethan one of the best weapons in the game:

Weapon of Faith is actually a level 2 spell that conjures a weapon dealing 1d8 damage plus spell modifier.
At level 6, however, the damage increases to 3d8 (+2 for Sethan). Level 6 is the highest level players can normally cast – a better spell is only obtained by the Dark Urge.
With Reduce, you shrink an opponent. His weapons deal less damage, and he becomes one size category smaller, which allows you to potentially throw him and thus directly kill him.

The weapon is best suited for Paladins who focus on Strength and Charisma, making them pure “hit-and-smash” characters. This way, you maximize both weapon damage and spells.

Shadowheart is also important for other weapons. However, you must choose between two extremely powerful weapons:

Former Bungie game outshines Destiny 2 on Xbox, guardians find: “Exactly what I need”

Britta ♤ BeAngel 27. November 2023 Reading time 4 minutes

Halo Infinite has had a remarkable ups and downs. From an initial player exodus after the release, it even casts a shadow over the flagship Destiny 2 on Xbox after the launch of its latest Season 2023. Apparently, many frustrated Guardians found in the universe of Master Chief much of what one actually wishes for from Destiny.

What’s going on with Halo Infinite? After the release of Halo Infinite in 2021, the journey initially went rocky. The player numbers fell quickly and it seemed as if the fascination for the iconic franchise with multiplayer wouldn’t last long.

Technical problems, dissatisfaction with the progression system, and other issues led players to quickly leave the Halo universe again.

In 2023, after the launch of Season 5: Reckoning on October 17, however, this is different. Perhaps also because the current turbulence at Bungie and the current developments regarding Destiny 2 lead frustrated Guardians to seek equivalent substitutes.

Halo Infinite received a mountain of new content, such as new arena maps, the return of the popular Halo 4 mode “Extraction”, free content in the Battle Pass, and instead of events now “Operations”, which always offer 20 levels of free earnable rewards.
In addition, an AI was integrated into the Forge mode, which allows giving the gameplay its own creative touch.
Some players also emphasized on Reddit that onboarding is simpler than in Destiny 2, making it much easier for them to persuade their friends to try out Halo Infinite.

The developers at 343 Industries apparently listened to the community’s feedback and have continued working on improving the game to this day.

“Exactly what I need.”

There is hardly an acceptable substitute for Destiny 2: The gameplay of Destiny 2 is special even after nearly 10 years. Overall, it’s the mix of deep lore with ongoing story, unique gameplay, long-term player engagement, and the strong social element that makes Destiny 2 an outstanding game. Even in 2023, it’s still difficult to find an equivalent substitute.

Some Destiny 2 players who quit the game out of frustration due to layoffs or the well-known lack of content at the end of Season 22, therefore, looked for a free alternative that’s not too far from Destiny.

Frustrated Destiny players who have tried Halo Infinite again report that they really enjoyed it in 2023. In recent days, the game even managed to surpass Destiny 2 on the list of most played Xbox games in the USA.

It was ranked 16th for several days, while Destiny was 17th.

Not Destiny 2 – but the perfect nostalgia along with it

That’s why the game was worth a look again: For one, Bungie developed the Halo series. So there are clear tendencies to Destiny 2.

On the other hand, some players apparently felt that with the new Season 5, it could be worthwhile to play the once nearly forgotten shooter again. After all, the game, just like Destiny 2, is free, aside from its premium content.

So writes the Guardian INTHEMIDSTOFLIONS: “I started playing the multiplayer mode of Halo Infinite last week, and I have to say, it’s really fun in 2023. I didn’t like it at all in 2021. But with the game modes and bug fixes in 2023, it’s really enjoyable now.”

Obviously, the efforts of the developers and the support of the community with constructive criticism have led to a small comeback.

Some players on Reddit also emphasized that onboarding in Halo Infinite is perceived to be easier compared to Destiny 2. This accessibility made it easy for them to persuade their friends to take a trip into Master Chief’s world.

CosmicOwl47 thinks: “A new player can easily start Halo Infinite and have a good time. I love Destiny, but it’s a nightmare to start as a new player. I don’t even try to get friends to play it.”
ImNotPostingMyself explains: “Yes, because 90% of the game is locked if you don’t have the expansions/DLCs [in Destiny 2]. It’s more of a free trial than free-to-play.”
MPGamer18 summarizes: “Halo is in much better shape than Destiny 2 and is simply much more fun to play, and it’s getting better all the time. When they released the Witch Queen DLC last year, that game was just great. But after a few seasons and no real improvement in PvP, I uninstalled it. Sony bought them for support with live service games, but it seems [Bungie] can’t even keep its own players engaged long-term. […]”

How long will this “lead” last? Probably not long. The two games are already trading places every now and then. Today is also the last day of Season 22 in Destiny 2. Tomorrow evening, fresh content for the Guardians is promised with the “Season of Wishes”, which will solve one of the biggest mysteries from Forsaken.

Nevertheless, it is impressive to see that Halo Infinite has managed to achieve this development on Xbox in the USA in 2023. Especially because the game seems to be doing quite a bit better now, as players can still buy and select old season passes for past seasons.

The question remains whether the positive trend for Halo Infinite will continue? The coming weeks will provide clarity. Until then, players can be pleased that Master Chief and his universe are still alive.

Fortnite: First leaks suggest a winter festival 2023 with an advent calendar

Christos Tsogos 27. November 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

In Fortnite, there has been a reflective event with a relaxed atmosphere, festive decorations, and plenty of free gifts during Christmas. Season: OG is coming to an end and with Christmas approaching, there is much to suggest a forthcoming Winterfest event 2023.

What is the Winterfest in Fortnite? Epic Games has come up with something for the winter so that players still have enough incentives to play even during the developers’ Christmas break. For this reason, the “14 Days of Fortnite” event was created. It is a Winter event where players can earn free cosmetic items and XP over 14 days.

The event has been largely expanded so that players can even shake 14 gifts in a wooden cabin and decide which gift they want to open first. The gifts usually come with well-known weapons from the vault, as well as temporary modes.

As Season: OG ends before the reflective time, many players have wondered if there will be another winter event this year. Although the live event around Eminem is still pending, there is still much to suggest a Winter event 2023.

Leaks suggest 14 Days of Fortnite

What do the leaks look like? According to Twitter user KiriBuilds, there are new garlands and a pine tree that have been implemented since Season: OG. These are new components that have been redesigned by the developers.

For winter, Fortnite not only treats players to gifts but also to decorated trees, bushes, and garlands that adorn houses and streets. It is therefore possible that Fortnite is already pulling the fairy lights from the attic to have them ready for the release of Chapter 5.

Additionally, with update 27.00, a line was found in the data where the word “shake” is associated with a “Winter Quest”. The “shaking” is very likely related to the gifts that players are allowed to open for the Christmas event.

Last but not least, the release timeframe speaks for the winter event. According to the data, Chapter 5 is set to start on Sunday, December 3. In the past, the event has started during the week between December 11 and 17. So Fortnite still has a week to release a patch that activates the event and brings back the wooden cabin of the big boss.

However, keep in mind that these are just leaks and speculations. It might also be that Epic Games skips the event and instead just decorates the new map of Chapter 5.

EA FC 24: When will pre-order customers receive the UCL Hero Pack?

Marc Engelbrecht 27. November 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

EA Sports rewards pre-order customers of the Ultimate Edition each year with special rewards. Today, on November 27, 2023, players will receive another bonus in FC 24. Those who log into Ultimate Team can look forward to a pack containing a UCL/UWCL Hero item. But when exactly will it arrive?

Who gets the pack?

Any player, who pre-ordered the Ultimate Edition of FC 24 before August 22, 2023, will receive a UCL/UWCL Hero pack.
The pack includes the untradeable version of one of the 19 new UEFA Champions League/UEFA Women’s Champions League Hero items that have been added to the virtual trading card game for the first time.

Start video

EA FC 24: How the new dribbling mechanics work

UCL Hero Pack arrives on November 27 in Ultimate Team

When does the pack arrive?

The Hero pack will be available in Ultimate Team starting Monday, November 27.
From 11:59 PM German time, players will be able to access it in the shop. Those in other time zones will need to adjust accordingly. Officially, it will be released at 10:59 PM UTC.
However, there is no rush as the bonus pack has no expiration date.

Which heroes are included in the pack? The base versions of the hero cards have been available since the launch of FC 24. However, only the Champions League variants can be pulled from the pre-order pack, which feature significantly better stats compared to the base items.

Among the 19 new heroes are some meta cards that can elevate your club to the next level. But as with any other pack, luck is required here as well. Only a few will be fortunate enough to get an absolute top player.

But the German midfielder Nadine Kessler, who is one of three women to receive a UEFA Women’s Champions League Hero item, comes with impressive stats.

During the day, there will also be another opportunity to get free packs. Viewers of the FC-PRO broadcast, who have previously linked their EA account with Twitch or YouTube, will receive rewards. A country tip will be announced during the stream, which you can use to complete an in-game task for additional rewards.

„You should have waited a year“: New arc of One Piece starts in January 2024, but fans wished for a little break

Jasmin Beverungen 27. November 2023 Reading time 3 minutes

The Wa-no-Kuni arc of One Piece has taken place in the anime. After more than four years, the Straw Hat Crew is leaving the Samurai Island in the anime and dedicating themselves to new adventures. However, some fans think that this is happening a bit too quickly.

What spoilers can I expect in the text? In the following article, we will discuss the location and the trailer for the upcoming arc. There will be no spoilers regarding the story or the characters appearing there.

What kind of arc is it? After the Wa-no-Kuni arc, which includes the longest fight in anime history, the Egghead Island arc begins in One Piece. As is usually the case, there are some filler episodes between the last and the upcoming storyline. Therefore, the start of the new arc is not until January 7, 2024.

The announcement took place on the official Twitter (or X) account:

In Germany, the new episodes will probably be available on Crunchyroll a few hours after their broadcast. In the Wa-no-Kuni arc, the current episode was also available shortly after in Japanese audio with German subtitles on the streaming service. We will have to wait a few more months for the German dubbing.

In an initial trailer, Toei Animation shows what we can look forward to in the Egghead arc:

Start video

One Piece: New trailer shows first images from the Egghead Island arc

Autoplay

Egghead Island promises a colorful, futuristic city

What is depicted in the trailer? On one hand, the trailer shows what the new outfits of the Straw Hat Crew look like. The pirates are equipped with special suits that come with practical functions. The costumes of Luffy, Zoro, and co. are colorful and, especially for the ladies, are tighter than necessary.

The trailer also features a crazy city. The buildings look futuristic, with some houses having domes with rockets on top. The architecture of some houses is totally outlandish.

In the sky, there is also a giant cloud with an egg, from which a slide leads down to the city. In another still image, there is an ancient robot lying in a landscape of palm trees.

Additionally, there are many still images indicating that things will be more technological in this arc than in previous ones. Finally, we see a person that fans of the manga will likely recognize.

A overview of all arcs can be found with the colleagues at GamePro – including the episodes that you can safely skip.

How are fans reacting to the announcement? Many fans are excited about the upcoming start of the arc. In the reddit forum, there is a thread where many users describe the arc as the “best arc” of the series.

However, there are also critical voices: Some believe that the production team should have taken their time to prepare the arc. The manga is currently still in the middle of the events of the arc. Therefore, fans suspect that the pace of the upcoming season could be slower than usual.

MeinMMO has compiled some voices for you:

Bunsen_burner49: ‘They will animate half a chapter per episode, right?’
Future_Breadfruit198: ‘They should have taken a break and waited a year before starting work on this storyline.’
Technical_Fee_7195: ‘Oh God, the pace will be terrible.’

Users like nicholaslegion had even hoped that there would be a whole bunch of filler episodes. This would have delayed the airing of the Egghead Island arcs a bit, and the mangaka would have had time to finish writing the arc by then.

But now there are only a handful of episodes left before the new storyline continues. One Piece has now surpassed 1,000 episodes:

WoW: If you want to equip the new legendary two-handed axe, it costs 1 million gold

Cortyn 27. November 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

The new Legendary in World of Warcraft is expensive – very expensive. You need more than just luck. You also need a lot of gold.

The race for the “World First Kill” in World of Warcraft Dragonflight is over. The European players of Echo managed to secure the mythic kill on Fyrakk and thus decided the race in their favor – even though the Americans from Team Liquid followed suit just a few hours later.

However, just like in the last raid, the first kill of the mythic variant of Fyrakk has unlocked something very special: The legendary axe Fyr’alath. This can drop from the final boss and is sure to make some strength character very, very happy – at least at first glance.

Because the weapon has “hidden costs” that you first have to pay.

What about the weapon? When you equip “Fyr’alath the Dreamrender” for the first time, the weapon begins to overwhelm your character. The power of the Shadowflame is just too strong. You then receive a quest in which you learn: If you want to wield the weapon, you need to modify it with a new grip so that you are not consumed by the energies. In three steps, you must upgrade the grip to finally be able to wield the weapon.

The weapon is extremely rewarding. Because it has a strong “use” effect that can cause almost 500,000 damage to multiple targets in just 3 seconds. Additionally, there is a passive effect that places a damage-over-time effect on hit enemies, which increases damage even further when activated.

What is so expensive? The expensive part of this quest line is the necessary materials. Because while you can find some reagents in the open world, others mainly require you to dip into your wallet. Here’s the list of all crafting materials that you can either buy directly from the auction house or commission through crafting orders:

Step 1:

Zaraleklightspores x400
Obsidiancobrahide x3
Dreaming Essence x 5
Mudslimehide x 50

Step 2:

Shadowflame Essence x10
Cosmic Ink x250
Rune-etched Crumb Ring x 50

Step 3:

Awakened Fire x150
Awakened Earth x100
Awakened Order x 50
Resonating Crystal x200

Blizzard wins lawsuit against Turtle WoW, forcing the largest private server for Classic Plus to settlement

New game like Dark Souls combines folklore and Persona 5: “I haven’t heard anything about it so far, now it’s my most anticipated Souls-like”

How expensive is it all? Even though prices fluctuate a bit, you should currently be paying between 1,000,000 and 1,200,000 gold for all the materials on most realms. It is assumed that the costs for the materials may rise a bit in the coming days as the demand increases due to the increased number of weapons.

What do you think about a Legendary still having such additional costs? A good thing to make it really special? Or way too expensive, thus devaluing the weapon?

New Soulslike for Steam, PS5 and Xbox connects Italian folklore with fantasy, starts beta – Here’s how to participate

Christoph Waldboth 27. November 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

Until December 15, all lovers of the soulslike genre can register for the closed beta of “Enotria: The Last Song” on Steam. The game by developer Jyamma Games immerses you in a fantastic setting, essentially influenced by Italian folklore.

What makes the game special? Spiritual successors of the renowned Souls games from the Japanese studio From Software are now as common as sand on the beach. The recently released “Lords of the Fallen” is just one example among many.

“Enotria” aims to impress with local charm. The eponymous fantasy world is heavily influenced by Italian folklore. The first trailers already showcase the intricate architecture of an Italian city, dusty alleys, and magnificent temple complexes:

Start video

Enotria: A World of Italian Folklore

Soulslike with Vacation Vibes

This is what the game is about: A strange force called “Canovaccio” holds the world under its control. To restore balance to the world, one must take up arms – and wear masks. They represent a central element of “Enotria”.

Once looted, the masks can be changed during gameplay. They equip the character with various abilities, transforming the faceless hero into a warrior, rogue, or battle mage.

In August 2023, the game was showcased at Gamescom in Cologne, where it was also nominated for two awards. Shortly thereafter, the development studio released a Technical Showcase Video on the occasion of the Tokyo Game Show in September. In it, Game Director Stoyan Stoyanov emphasizes that it is very important for the team behind “Enotria” to remain true to both the traditions of the genre and those of the Mediterranean scenario.

The admittedly vacation-like game world is rendered by Unreal Engine 5. As seen in the video, fluid animations enable a more aggressive combat style, reminiscent of what we know from “Bloodborne”.

How to Sign Up for the Closed Beta of Enotria

How to get involved: Those who enjoy the challenging gameplay of the souls games can soon try “Enotria” for themselves. But you shouldn’t take too much time. Registration for the closed beta can only be done through the website of the developer until December 15, 2023. To do this, you need to sign up with your name and email address, fill out a questionnaire, and subscribe to the Discord channel and newsletter of the game.

The beta is PC-exclusive and runs via Steam. However, not everyone who signs up will be able to start playing immediately. Initially, only a small portion of applicants will be selected to test the game. Gradually, the number of participating players will be increased. The closed beta serves to identify issues with the current version and improve the overall quality of the game.

An important point: The beta is subject to an NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement), which means that everything you experience while playing must remain strictly confidential.

All beta players will also receive an in-game skin that can be activated in time for the release. The game is expected to be released in 2024 for PC (Steam), PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. A specific date is not yet available.

How do you like the trailers so far? Are you eagerly diving into every new soulslike, or do you prefer to keep your distance due to the generally high difficulty?

What Pokémon are in the leak?

We are looking at some of the potential Pokémon. Among them are:

Mega-Mewtwo X and Y: Trainers have been waiting for this Pokémon for years, discussions about the Mega-variants of Mewtwo first started in 2019. The Y-version was also seen in a graphic for the 2020 birthday, and the X-version appeared in another graphic the following year.
So far, however, players are still waiting for the release.
Mega-Metagross: Another highlight that would count among the best monsters in the game. Just like …
Mega-Lucario: This would also be a top Mega evolution.
Palkia and Dialga: The Origin forms of the two legendaries also appear in the leak and have recently been discussed.
Necrozma: A powerful Pokémon that trainers have been hoping for for a long time. There were also already hints, but it is still missing in Pokémon GO.

In addition, the leak contains Pokémon such as:

Lusardin in single and swarm form

New medieval MMORPG wants to be super realistic, fails precisely in the matter of dirt

jacquelinek 27. November 2023 Reading time 2 minutes

The developers of the new MMORPG “Reign of Guilds” shared images of a tavern on Reddit on November 25, asking players for their opinions. Many players agree: The tavern is too clean.

What kind of game is Reign of Guilds? The MMORPG takes place in a medieval fantasy world. It is set to be released in the first quarter of 2024. The main focus of the story is the conflict between different guilds.

Reign of Guilds is intended to be an open-world PvP game, where PvP will be activated in almost every area. There will also be alliances and guild wars, in which up to 150 players can participate simultaneously.

The payment system is designed to be similar to World of Warcraft: You will need to buy the title first and then pay a monthly fee to play.

Why did the developers fail when it comes to dirt? On November 25, the developer shares screenshots of the game’s tavern on Reddit. He mainly wants to understand the players’ impression. The images show many elements we associate with a classic tavern: jugs, wine barrels, and plenty of alcohol.

However, one thing is completely missing according to many players: dirt. At least the images suggest this, as dust, tipped glasses, liquids, or any other dirt are not to be found here.

How are players reacting to the failure? The opinions on Reddit among players seem to be quite clear:

“Karroth1” writes: “Looks good, a bit too clean for an active tavern, maybe add some cobwebs and dust, and please, fill it with life, not just shop NPCs.”
“BurningSky1994” notes: “The floor looks too clean, maybe some stains should be added, generally spread more dirt, I’m sure someone has spilled a drink here or there.”
“Bigleon” comments: “I want to add: clean. There should be puddles and stains on the floors. Jugs should look well-used. Honestly, nothing should feel shiny for this tavern unless it is super upscale.”

Many players are also still unclear to what extent they can interact with the tavern. However, the developers have left this question unanswered so far.
