Halloween is also starting to spread in GTA Online. And where there are events, there are also gifts and cool actions that gangsters can pursue. This year you have to search for pumpkins in Los Santos. We will show you all the locations on a pumpkin lantern map and what you will get for your efforts.
What are pumpkins in GTA Online? The multiplayer mode of GTA brings in summer, as well as in Halloween and at Christmas often cool events and actions that players can engage in. This year, gangsters from Los Santos can go on another scavenger hunt. Pumpkins have been distributed all over the map for players to collect.
Great daily cash gifts for little effort
What do you get for all pumpkins? For collecting the pumpkins, you will of course be well rewarded. These include:
With 10 collected pumpkins – The horror pumpkin mask + 50,000 GTA dollars as a daily bonus
With all 200 pumpkins – You will receive a special t-shirt with pumpkins on it
Additionally, whenever you pick up a pumpkin lantern, you will either get something sweet or sour. This means you will either receive a cool reward like extra GTA dollars or you will be penalized and be on a drug trip.
This is what a pumpkin looks like in the game while it waits for you
Where are the pumpkins located? You can find the pumpkins distributed all over the “Los Santos” map. We have created for you all the exact locations using the interactive map “gtalens.com“.
These are all the pumpkins in the cityThese are all the pumpkins in the countyThe complete map divided into two maps
However, note that all pumpkins are reset daily. You can only receive 200 random sweet or sour gifts. The important thing is mainly the daily bonus in GTA dollars that you receive when you have caught 10 random pumpkins.
If you want the t-shirt, you should collect all 200 pumpkins in one day; otherwise, your progress will reset with the daily reset. Then you will have to start over.
If you have caught all the pumpkins in one day, you can catch 10 samples daily to receive the daily 50,000 GTA dollars. If you manage to do this until the end of the event, you will have accumulated a nice sum. But be careful, you only have time until the event ends. After that, your advantages and the still available rewards will disappear.
That was all the important information about the pumpkins. What do you think of such events from Rockstar? Do you find them cool and does it make GTA Online fun again? Let us know in the comments!

Are you looking for a strong formation in FIFA 23? Here you will find pro tips for the right lineup.
Finding the right formation in FIFA 23 is not that easy. Depending on your own playstyle, it may make sense to set up more defensive or offensive players, focus on the wings, or dribble through the middle.
Therefore, there isn’t “the one” best formation – you have to see what suits you best.
However, a few tips can make your decision-making easier. We consulted FIFA professional Henning Wilmbusse for guidance.
Henning Wilmbusse at the Grand Final of the VBL – Photo: Hansa Rostock
Henning Wilmbusse has been playing FIFA professionally for “Hansa eFootball” since 2020 after being discovered in a scouting tournament. Last season, he reached the Top 4 of the Virtual Bundesliga with the Rostock team. He also advanced to the Top 16 of the international eChampions League.
Tips for the best formations in FIFA 23
You should keep in mind:The FIFA 23 release was not long ago and strong tactics are still evolving. “In the coming weeks, things will change a bit more. Strong formations may crystallize in the next days and weeks,” Henning explains.
Therefore, the professional recommends players at the start of the season, especially three compact and versatile formations that give you many options. These are the following lineups:
The 4-4-2:
A balanced formation.
A balanced formation that is well-suited for the start of the FIFA season. “You are stable in defense, but also have enough players for attacks in offense,” says Henning.
The 4-2-2-2:
The 4-2-2-2 offers CAMs instead of LM/RM.
This formation aligns with an offensive playstyle. Here you can exert quick build-up and much pressure on the opponent. This is especially useful for players who want to stand high and attack aggressively.
The 4-2-3-1:
The 4-2-3-1 offers many options in the middle.
This formation is recommended by Henning for a more defensive game, allowing you to counter the opponent effectively when necessary. “You stand more compact and only have one striker. This is very good if you want to manage and carry the game over time. There is hardly any way through if you do it well.”
Suggestions for player instructions: Here you should closely examine which playstyle you pursue. For defensive coverage with counterattack opportunities, Henning suggests:
Striker: Strengthen defense, “to stay compact in the back and be able to counter quickly forward,” according to Henning.
CM: Stay back during attacks, cover the middle.
Wingers: Strengthen defense for crosses into the box.
Full-backs: Stay back during attacks.
In Henning’s view, a well-organized defense is currently essential, because: “This year, defending has become more difficult. You have to do more yourself,” says Wilmbusse.
Last year, the auto blocks were weakened, and now the AI in defense intervenes even less than before: “Therefore, it’s even more worthwhile to stand defensively well.”
What about the five-man defense? If you want to make it solid and build a defensive fortress, a five-man defense lineup is also a good option.
Henning has noticed how difficult it is to break through as an opponent: “I’ve noticed that the five-man defense is very strong this year and I’ve played against it many times,” he reports: “There is hardly any way through.”
Which formation do you find to be the strongest in FIFA 23? Do you have a favorite? Let us know in the comments!
The Nintendo Switch was released in March 2017 and is one of the most popular gaming consoles. MeinMMO editor Benedikt Schlotmann had nothing to do with the console for years – until he finally bought it himself and was surprised.
For those who want to game after work, there are plenty of options in 2022:
He grabs a controller and sits down at the PlayStation or Xbox.
Or he opts for the Steam Deck as a mobile alternative.
Alternatively, he stays at the PC and switches from work to gaming.
Another alternative would also be the Nintendo Switch.
Especially the last option, I laughed at for a long time. Because in my eyes, the Switch could never compete with the PC or PS5. At most, I watched my girlfriend catch dozens of pocket monsters in Pokémon: Shield or take care of her plants in a farming simulation. My girlfriend loves her Switch dearly and it is a constant companion in everyday life.
But since I bought the Switch myself, I see the handheld console in a completely different light. I would even call it my purchase of the year in 2022. You can read why in the following article.

The 7 Best Free Multiplayer Games for the Nintendo Switch 2022
The Switch is considered outdated and not very powerful in 2022
What was my issue with the Switch? The Switch has been criticized for a long time. The console is criticized for not having a bright enough screen and the controllers being more suited for children’s hands than for adult gamers.
The competition authority of the United Kingdom, the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), referred to the Switch as a “family console” that cannot compete with PlayStation and Xbox.
The biggest criticism from fans and buyers, however, is that the hardware installed in the Switch is already outdated. Many games offer weak performance or run poorly on the Switch.
That’s why there have long been demands for a new version and corresponding rumors about a Nintendo Switch Pro. Many hope that Nintendo will use a better chip from Nvidia in the future and bring all the cool features to the Switch that PC gamers with RTX graphics cards benefit from.
I could generally agree with the criticism. Why should I invest more than 300 euros in outdated technology when a new version will eventually come?
Buying a Switch completely changes my view of the console
In the summer, I then bought the Nintendo Switch OLED for myself. This was mainly due to a really good offer. At around 260 euros for the OLED version of the Switch, I could no longer say no.
My first game on the Switch was actually the Metroidvania “Hollow Knight” and thus not an exclusive Nintendo title. I had already spent some hours on the game on PC. And I was genuinely surprised at how well the game works on the Switch, despite previously complaining about the weak hardware.
My Switch with thumbstick attachments and a hard plastic case.
I jumped and fought my way through the green path, cursed multiple times about the tough trio of the Mantis Lords, eventually reached the beautiful City of Tears, and almost despaired at the Colosseum of Fools. But that was more due to my inability than the handheld. By now, I have spent more time in “Hollow Knight” on the Switch than in all the years before with the PC version.
The Nintendo Switch has achieved something here that even the PlayStation has never managed: I actually leave my computer off after work and sit down on the couch with the Switch.
It’s this “casual” approach that keeps me hooked on this little console, which I had previously completely underestimated. I miss neither current hardware nor high FPS numbers or high-end graphics with ray tracing.
The grips feel a bit too small for me, but they are sufficient for a few hours in the evening.
However, the Switch is not perfect in my eyes, and there are plenty of things that bother me:
I find the grips not haptic perfect and a bit too small for my hands. A colleague then recommended other grips for the Switch. Bluetooth and the online mode of Pokémon Sword do not get along, which is quite annoying, as I then always have to resort to wired headphones.
I have to do without Discord and other tools on the Switch, and only a few games offer a proper voice chat. And that is also severely restricted.
The Nintendo eShop has a terrible performance on the Switch and makes shopping absolutely no fun. The sorting function is also awful; Steam or the PS Store clearly have the edge there.
Not even the Steam Deck could dethrone my Switch
What about the Steam Deck? Since September 2022, I can finally reach for the Steam Deck as well. Compared to the Switch, the device from Valve seems way too big, and especially for somewhat demanding games, the battery drains very quickly. In the MMORPGs I tested on the Steam Deck, the casing also got very hot.
And if I want to connect the Steam Deck to the monitor anyway, I might as well start the PC, where I have significantly more comfort features.
Games like Star Wars: The Old Republic I played on the Steam Deck – I was moderately enthusiastic.
After these experiences, I quickly returned to the Switch. Since then, I have been playing Hollow Knight here again or now also Pokémon Sword. Because everything is so easy on the Nintendo handheld:
On the Switch, the games I want to play run smoothly and stably.
Nintendo’s console does not stutter like the Steam Deck or feel as hot as a hot plate.
When I am on the go, the Switch has a much more comfortable size than the Steam Deck and fits significantly better in my travel luggage.
In fact, there is one game that I ultimately preferred to play on the Steam Deck instead of the Switch or PC, and that is the Pokémon clone Temtem. It is simply less bug-ridden than on the Switch.
Anyone who has grown as fond of their Switch as I have should definitely check out the following tips that have helped me a lot. Especially the tip on how you can unlock multiple save slots in certain games was worth its weight in gold:
The Hallow’s End 2022 has started in World of Warcraft. The hunt for the Headless Horseman has begun – we will tell you how to sign up for the fight and find a group and what loot the Horseman drops.
Once again, the spooky season has arrived in World of Warcraft and with it the event “Hallow’s End”. In addition to plenty of candy, masks for dressing up, and one or two quests, there is also a special fight against a new boss, the Headless Horseman. This one terrorizes the towns of the starting areas and deserves a good thrashing.
We will reveal how to reach this special boss and why you really need a lot of loot luck.
How do you reach the Headless Horseman? To get to the Headless Horseman, simply use the “Dungeon Finder” tool. There you can select “The Headless Horseman” from the drop-down menu. If you sign up as a DPS character, the wait time may take a few minutes; as a tank or healer, you will receive invitations almost immediately.
If your class can tank, it’s worth signing up as a tank here, as the fight is not particularly difficult and can easily be mastered by inexperienced tanks.
You can conveniently reach the boss “Headless Horseman” via the Dungeon Finder.
By the way: At level 60, the fight is quite a joke and can be easily completed even if one or two players don’t participate. The fight shouldn’t last more than 60 seconds, allowing you to quickly join the fight with all characters.
Once inside the dungeon, you only need to walk a few meters until you see a large pumpkin on the left side. Click on it and select the dialogue option so your character summons the Horseman.
You need to defeat the Horseman a total of three times. Each time he drops his head, which you must attack before the Horseman reassembles. After attacking the head for the 3rd time, the boss dies and drops his loot for you.
This pumpkin is hard to miss. It summons the Headless Horseman.
Loot and Rewards from the Headless Horseman at Hallow’s End
What does the Headless Horseman drop? The Headless Horseman can have quite a bit of loot, but the most coveted item is likely “The Reins of the Horseman,” with which you obtain the Headless Horseman’s mount. It can be contained in the “Pumpkin Full of Loot,” which you can receive once per day and character.
The Horse of the Horseman is one of the most popular mounts in the game.
But beware! To have a chance at the mount, you must be at least at the “current content” character level. This means that your character must be at least level 50 to receive the correct reward box with a chance at the mount. If your character is lower, it can receive all other rewards but not the coveted Horseman’s horse.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has an overhauled ” gunsmith 2.0″ with interesting changes, while also orienting itself to the system of CoD MW 2019. MeinMMO presents you the new gunsmith and explains why there is also a pinch of Pay2Win involved.
The gunsmith of Call of Duty allows you to customize your weapons with unlocked attachments to suit your playstyle. The system is very popular, but it also separates casual players from hardcore grinders.
If you play a few hours every day, you unlock everything quickly. If you only dip in occasionally, you find yourself at a disadvantage. This changes a bit with Modern Warfare 2.
The new “gunsmith 2.0” supports attachments that can be attached to multiple weapons without further leveling. In addition, new “Vault Blueprints” can be purchased, making leveling a weapon almost completely unnecessary. We will explain the new gunsmith in detail.
The English video on the gunsmith 2.0 is embedded for you here:
How does the new gunsmith work? The weapons no longer have their own weapon levels, everything now works through the so-called “receivers”. They form a weapon platform consisting of several receivers and can share their attachments with each other.
Many new weapons are also unlocked through the receivers – there is a kind of level tree that you can work through.
In total, there are 9 attachment slots and you can activate 5 attachments simultaneously. Thus, Modern Warfare 2 takes back the attachment limit from CoD MW 2019. In CoD Vanguard, there were still 10 usable attachments for each weapon.
However, the receiver is not one of the 5 possible attachments – it has its own slot.
Some attachments from the first receiver can be directly attached to the new weapons you’ve unlocked within the receiver family. You must unlock the attachment slots for a new receiver and then directly use the attachments of the weapon platform.
This way, you will have a decent amount of attachments ready for customization as soon as you unlock the weapon / the weapon receiver. There will also be attachments that you can use directly for all weapons in the game. Unlock once and use for the entire arsenal.
In the example video, you unlock the M16 receiver through the M4 receiver. The M16 can then use the attachments you have unlocked through the M4 receiver.
Within the receiver families, there are strong customization options. The assault rifles M4 and M16 share receivers with submachine guns, enabling interesting attachment combinations.
New receivers and receiver families will continue to be unlocked through your account level. However, instead of previously unlocking all release weapons through your account, you get a receiver through which several weapons can be unlocked.
However, not all weapons have a platform. Some come as standalone weapons with their own, individual attachments.
If you want to know when, how and where CoD MW2 starts, here are all the infos:
There are no more weapon levels, only receiver levels
You unlock receivers through your account level
Every weapon has a receiver
Many receivers are part of a weapon family
The families share many attachments
New weapons within a family can be unlocked through the receiver level
Some attachments are usable for almost all weapons in the game
Some weapons have no platform
With the system, you have to grind fewer weapons overall. Instead of leveling 70 levels just with the M4 for all attachments, you level weapon families simultaneously and end up with, for example, five finished weapons instead of just one.
A disadvantage is that you have to play weapons that you might not be interested in. Because to unlock all attachments of a weapon family, you also have to play through all receivers. To get all the attachments for the M4, points with a submachine gun receiver are also necessary.
CoD MW2: Vault weapons are a logical step but slightly Pay2Win
What is the deal with the Vault weapons? Another major innovation are “Vault Blueprints”. These are weapon skins that immediately push cosmetics for all attachments into your inventory.
The FJX Cinder Weapon Vault is part of the €100 “Vault Edition” of CoD MW2 and is the first skin package of its kind (€110 for consoles). The package will already be available in the beta.
A look at the preview image reveals that the receivers of a weapon family are also part of the vault packages. If you own a vault package, you have all attachments for five weapons directly and don’t really need to level anymore.
The advantages: In the past, many weapons blueprints were partially useless because they only looked good if you also had the appropriate attachments in the right appearance on the weapon.
However, when you wanted to use the strongest weapon attachments, you could rarely use your complete favorite skin. If there are now packages where every attachment fits the set, the problem disappears.
Additionally, it caters to players who have little time to game. You quickly buy a package with all attachments and might directly have an assault rifle and a submachine gun with all attachments.
The disadvantages: There is a hint of Pay2Win through the gunsmith. Because the blueprints used to contain only very specific attachments, which were rarely “meta”, you can now instantly buy a complete weapon.
While others are still leveling their receivers, you are already hunting at the highest level with the new best weapon.
Let us know your opinion on the new “Super Skin” packages:
On October 28th, the shooter will be released, and a week earlier the campaign will already go online. On MeinMMO, we will closely monitor developments around Modern Warfare 2, provide weapon service, and tell you stories from the community.
The release date of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is officially on October 28. However, many contents can only be played later, but the campaign can be played significantly earlier with a digital pre-order. MeinMMO shows you an overview of when which release stages will be activated.
Why does CoD MW2 have 3 release dates? The content of Modern Warfare 2 comes in 3 stages:
Due to the staggered releases, there isn’t an immediate influx of new CoD content. However, it is somewhat unclear when you can play what. MeinMMO presents the contents of the individual stages.
Who can play? Early access to the campaign is for pre-orders of a digital edition of CoD MW2. The platform doesn’t matter – PlayStation, Xbox, Steam, and the Battle.net launcher will have access. It is important that you have a digital pre-order, not a version with a CD.
CoD MW2: Release – Official release
When does the 2nd stage start? The official release is on October 28 with regionally adjusted times. PC starts at 6 AM, consoles at midnight.
The preloads also start at different times: PlayStation on October 20, Xbox on October 19, and PC on October 26 (Steam and Battle.net).
What content goes online? Here the multiplayer content starts – the big multiplayer mode and the co-op mode “Spec-Ops”. It is still unknown how many maps or missions will be available at launch. You can find our extensive info article on CoD MW2 here.
Who can play? All buyers of Modern Warfare 2 have full access. If you bought Modern Warfare 2 as a CD, then the campaign is also included. Here you can check out some of the new features of CoD MW2:
When does the 3rd stage start? On November 16, CoD MW2 will step it up again. Season 1 starts with a lot of new content and Warzone 2.0.
What content goes online? The first service content will come into the game – new maps and weapons, new missions for the Spec-Ops mode. The announced raids have been postponed to mid-season 1 on December 14.
Additionally, the continuation of Call of Duty: Warzone will come on November 16. Currently, this battle royale is called “Warzone 2.0”.
Who can play? The new content in multiplayer and Spec-Ops is only for buyers of CoD MW2.
However, Warzone 2.0, including the DMZ mode, is completely free to play. As soon as there is more concrete information, you will find it on MeinMMO. For example, whether you need PS Plus for Warzone 2.0. That wasn’t the case for the predecessor, but it cost 25 cents.

In Fortnite, the “Fortnitemares” have started. The event brings “Escape Rooms” that distribute rewards. We will show you how it works.
What is the Escape Room feature? As part of the new Fortnitemares, Epic also introduced a feature called “Escape Room.” This takes place partly in the game – the rest is done in the web browser.
What is in the Escape Room? In the Escape Room, you can earn four free rewards. These include cosmetics as well as XP.
The first room brings the emote “Creepy”
The second room gives you 20,000 XP
Room 3 brings the spray “Octo-Eye”
Room 4 gives you the paint job “Niterave” for weapons & co.
The rewards from the Fortnite Escape Room
How does the Fortnite Escape Room work?
How to get the rewards: To participate in the Escape Room, you need to visit a special website. You can find the link to the Fortnite Escape Rooms here (via Escaperooms/Fortnite).
Here, you need to log in with the Epic account that you have linked to Fortnite. Once you do this, you unlock the first room.
This is a dark, barren room where according to the task “the trophies” are missing. You need to change that by completing tasks.
The first Escape Room for the Fortnitemares
However, you need to go into the game for that. You can only complete the tasks in the “Battle Royale” or “No Build” modes – regardless of whether in solo, duo, trio, or team.
The tasks are not particularly difficult at first glance. In the first room, the tasks are:
Catch 30 fish
Eliminate 10 opponents
Be in the last 10 in 3 matches
Once you have completed that, you receive the respective room reward and unlock the next room. You can directly check your progress on the Escape Room page to update the statistics. However, there may be delays of up to an hour for the data to transfer (via Escaperooms / Fortnite).
Also, besides the Escape Rooms, the new update to Fortnite offers a lot with the Halloween event. Among other things, the new crossover:

Fortnite shows the Fortnitemares 2022 in the trailer – Features a new crossover with Rick and Morty
Additionally, you will find a new claw weapon in werewolf style, for which you first need to perform a ritual. There is also a new horde mode and some other free items that you can earn through tasks. They combine the “Halloween” theme with the “Chrome” theme of the current season.
The pre-patch of World of Warcraft: Dragonflight has a release date: On October 26, the first content of the new expansion will be available in the game, and on November 15, Phase 2 of the pre-patch will start. We will show you what you can already test before release on MeinMMO.
Before a new major expansion of the MMORPG World of Warcraft, it is common for a so-called pre-patch to bring initial content into the game.
Dragonflight will also receive a pre-patch. Here are the key release dates:
MeinMMO lists the details of the pre-patch for you, including the launch of the new class “Evoker” and information about the pre-event that was already playable on the test servers.

When does the pre-patch start? In Europe, the pre-patch goes live on October 26. For the US launch, Blizzard states October 25. You need to shift the respective date on the roadmap one day back for the EU launch:
What happens in Phase 1? The following innovations will go live with the first pre-patch on October 26:
The release of WoW Dragonflight is approaching rapidly. The pre-patch already contains a lot of content from the upcoming expansion and is a good introduction to the full expansion on November 28.
But are you even using the pre-patch, or are you waiting for the full expansion? What do you think of the “habit” of using the pre-patch before the full expansion? Leave a comment on the topic.
The Halloween event 2022 might bring a special Pokémon to Pokémon GO: Zorua. There are indications of an upcoming release of the “Ditto Pokémon.” What we know so far.
It’s October and the big Halloween event in Pokémon GO is getting closer. Part 1 starts on October 20 and runs until October 27, Part 2 begins right after.
A lot of content for the first part of the event is already known: from candy bonuses to a new special research, to special music and the debut of Mega Banette, many different contents will be available. However, nothing is known yet about “Part 2.”
As of now, one can only speculate what the Halloween event might bring. However, dataminers have already found hints that a new monster might soon appear: Zorua.
In a new datamine for APK version 0.251.2 from October 18, shared by the Pokeminers in the Pokémon GO subreddit “TheSilphRoad,” a new line named “zoruaScaleMultiplier” is also mentioned, which was added to the “Ditto Reveal Encounter” (via Pokeminers).
Thus, Zorua, if it comes to the game soon, could appear in a similar form as Ditto – disguised as another monster that only reveals itself through catching or another action. Moreover, considering the main games, such a feature would also be plausible for Zorua.
What kind of monster is Zorua? Zorua would not only fit well with Halloween due to its Dark type but also brings a special ability from the main Pokémon series: Illusion.
In the main series, Zorua visually transforms into the last battle-capable Pokémon in the team, thus looking completely different. However, it keeps its attacks, which could confuse opponents.
In the Pokédex, Zorua is also described as a shapeshifter that tricks its opponents by assuming a different appearance. It can even disguise itself as a human – not just as a Pokémon.
Additionally, Zorua and Zoroark have a Hisui form of Normal/Ghost type. The backstory states that these are deceased Zorua that were reborn as ghost Pokémon due to anger. If that’s not fitting for Halloween!
What to consider: Currently, the information is purely based on leaks and not official information. It is therefore not certain that Zorua and Zoroark will come to the game in this form – but the hints are accumulating.
As soon as there is more information, we will keep you updated! And for what else is coming in Pokémon GO, you can find an overview of the Pokémon GO events in October 2022.

Sony has revealed details about the new Pro Controller for the PlayStation 5 – features, release date, price, and packaging are now known. MeinMMO shows you the new information and gives an initial assessment of the new premium controller for the PS5.
When will the DualSense Edge be released and what will it cost? The most important things first – here are the prices and the release date:
PS5 DualSense Edge
Price: 240 euros
Release: January 26, 2023
Pre-order: October 25, 2022
Sony is thus releasing its own Pro Controller for its consoles for the first time. The DualSense Edge comes with adjustable triggers, back buttons, and many customizable control features.
However, the price might be a bit steep for many players – for 240 euros, you could already finance half of a PlayStation 5.
What features are included in the device and an initial impression of price and controller can be found here on MeinMMO. We will include the trailer for the DualSense Edge here:

Pro Controller PS5: DualSense Edge – Features & Packaging
What features does the DualSense Edge have? The new Pro Controller does not skimp on extras and comes with many functions that the regular DualSense does not have:
Replaceable sticks and stick modules
You can remove the complete sticks including the base. Together with the controller, you will also receive some new sticks with different grips.
Paddles on the back
At the back of the controller, there are extra buttons called paddles. You can assign buttons to them and also replace them – you will also find some replacement paddles included.
Trigger distance adjustment
You have a switch under your back triggers (R2, L2). This allows you to shorten the distance needed to activate the trigger.
Controller profiles
The DualSense Edge has internal storage for multiple controller profiles. At the press of a button, you can remap the buttons, adjust the stick sensitivity, or realign the stick dead zones.
FN buttons
Under the sticks, you have two more buttons that allow you to make adjustments on the PS5 and the controller. Here you can change the volume or quickly switch controller profiles.
Additionally, the usual features of a normal DualSense controller are present: adaptive triggers, haptic feedback, microphone, and speaker in the controller. No feature has been removed – everything is as it is with the DualSense, but with the mentioned extras.
What does the packaging include? The packaging is quite extensive. In addition to the interchangeable gadgets, there is also a controller bag included:
DualSense Edge
High-quality braided USB cable
Housing for the plug, which can be attached to the controller
4 replacement sticks with 2 different profiles
4 back paddles, one pair each (lever and semicircular)
Personal conclusion: Normal price for a pro controller, but many extras
Controllers are to me like toasters, remote controls or shoehorns – a daily and everyday object. Hardly a day goes by when I don’t tap around on a DualSense to distribute headshots or to start the latest series hits on Netflix.
While the regular DualSense is sufficient for me on Netflix, I now use the “SCUF Reflex FPS” for my headshots for a proud 280 euros. Compared to that, the features and packaging of the DualSense Edge look quite good.
The price of the Edge at 240 euros for a controller is quite high, but in comparison to competitors, it is more in the middle range when looking at other pro controllers.
A bit envious, I look at the fully adjustable paddles on the back. My SCUF has 4 paddles, but they are permanently connected to specific buttons. Also, the extra buttons that are attached under the sticks sound exciting.
I am skeptical about the adjustable trigger distances for L2 and R2 on the back. If it just blocks the long path of the triggers, it often doesn’t bring the desired effect in many games.
A “disadvantage” of the DualSense Edge is the controller bag. It is included in the packaging, thereby pushing the price up. Buyers could have saved about 20 euros here.
How the DualSense Edge ultimately stands in terms of quality will only become clear after release. But in terms of features and extras, the new Pro Controller of the PS5 can compete with the competition – “many extras” meets “normal price” for a Pro Controller of the PS5.
I also like to read your comments on the new Pro Controller DualSense Edge. Let us know your opinion on price and features – do you perhaps have a Pro Controller for comparison?
The last update in Destiny 2 contained a peculiarity, but did not bring any real bug fixes to the game. Guardians hope that Bungie will correct some issues in the game with today’s hotfix 6.2.5 on 18.10. MeinMMO will keep you updated as always during the downtime and will inform you when you cannot play.
What you need to know today: Bungie is planning a new update before the Halloween event 2022 “Festival of the Lost” starts in Destiny 2. This means Guardians will need to briefly interrupt their game today for hotfix 6.2.5 in Season 18 on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, PC, and Google Stadia.
This time, however, it should not be a patch that confuses the Guardians to the max and makes them eager for a new secret that does not actually exist.
MeinMMO will accompany you with updates on the hotfix and will continuously update this article with fresh information. So keep an eye on our live updates so you don’t miss anything.
Update log for hotfix 6.2.5:
19:00 Uhr: Halloween can begin. The download is ready and is 640.9 MB on PC. Bungie has also published detailed patch notes on weapon balance. 18:45 Uhr: Destiny 2 has just been taken offline due to the upcoming maintenance. Players were removed from ongoing activities. The servers are now down until 19:00.
For those who do not yet know Destiny 2 but are interested in the shooter, we summarize all important information in this video in a snappy 2 minutes.

Maintenance on 18.10. – All times and server downtime
For each update, Bungie announces exact downtime periods when players cannot play. We provide this information in our article with the German times, so you can better plan your gaming evening.
These times are important today:
At 18:00 German time, maintenance work will start in the background on all platforms.
From 18:45 the servers will go offline and you will be automatically kicked from all activities.
Around 19:00 the servers are expected to come back online and update 6.2.5 will be rolled out for all platforms. You can then log back into the game.
Even though the servers are online, maintenance officially continues until 20:00.
Important: Even if you have downloaded the update and are back in the game, there may still be connectivity issues until the end of maintenance at 20:00. You may also have to deal with queues when logging in.
After the hotfix, the Halloween event 2022 starts in Destiny 2.
This update bringstoday: On one hand, today’s update will bring the content for the Halloween event 2022 to Destiny 2.
In addition, players are still waiting for urgent updates that will fix annoying bugs in the game. Thus, hope for soon fixes and improvements is on update 6.2.5.
Current list of known issues:
Loading times in the Tower have still not improved, despite a recent restriction on simultaneous players. Guardians still have to switch to the H.E.L.M. to circumvent this bug, but there are no vendors available there.
The bells are ringing, as players can sometimes die when transported to the Nightmare Realm in the dungeon “Duality”.
The introductory quest “Duality” does not count towards the Grandmaster mode completion of the quest objective.
The exotic Hunter armor “Harnisch des Jagdfalken” is disabled.
The exotic Warlock helmet “Dämmerungskonzert” does not appear in the collections.
The heavy grenade launcher “Meuterei-Ausruf” incorrectly appears in the section for special grenade launchers in the collections.
Some players cannot place relics from pirate hideouts in the H.E.L.M. and must use other characters.
Turrets and cannons in the security optics encounter of the Ketchcrash activity are excessively bright and can cause excitement in light-sensitive individuals.
Players joining an ongoing Ketchcrash activity can get stuck behind a locked door until squad members start the boss encounter.
In Ketchcrash, the health bar for security optics can disappear or show inaccurate health values if too quickly damaged.
Players can be blocked from season progression if they return to orbit too quickly.
During expeditions, brawlers will despawn if not defeated, even though the cargo is 100% complete.
Player name changes are still not customizable via bungie.net. Players are still waiting for the option to adjust their username multiple times instead of just once.
If you encounter problems in the game yourself, we recommend reporting them directly through the official Bungie Help Forum to alert the developers to these issues.
What is in the patch notes? The comprehensive list of all changes for hotfix 6.2.5 is published by Bungie in the form of patch notes. Traditionally, this happens quite quickly after the servers come back online.
What bugs have you still discovered in Destiny 2 and what would you absolutely wish for in today’s hotfix if you could make an update wish to Bungie? Feel free to let us know in the MeinMMO comments.
If you want to learn more about today’s Halloween event starting in Destiny 2, we have a first taste for you here:
In October, Destiny 2 traditionally celebrates Halloween. As of tonight, all interested players are invited to put on one of the spooky masks and give others the fright of their lives. MeinMMO also informs you about what Bungie has planned for this week.
This week: As every year, Bungie hosts its traditional Halloween event. It starts tonight after the Weekly Reset at 7 PM and will be in the game for 3 weeks.
By the way, it doesn’t matter in Destiny 2 whether you’ve purchased a DLC or a Season for events. All players can participate in the event with the free-to-play version Destiny 2: New Light. So feel free to join in and transform your Guardian into a Mecha or grab the new event weapon.
What activity awaits the Guardians at the Halloween event? Last year, Bungie sent the Guardians into Haunted instead of Lost Sectors. These were scary adorned, and the goal was to hunt headless beings that appeared as Cabal Knights with pumpkin heads.
This won’t change in 2022, only this year you’ll fight in Power Ranger mode as “Star-Sheriffs” using your new Mech armor. The Haunted Sectors have merely spread to a new location in the EDZ. Additionally, there’s the Sniper Rifle “Horror-Tech” to earn.
This week, Guardians can also crown their hard-earned King’s Fall Raid title by completing the final challenge and then officially call themselves “Kingslayer”.
Bungie presents a first glimpse of the event in this new Halloween trailer:

The key information on activities from October 18 to October 25.
This week, you must again prevent the devils from gaining control of Rasputin’s war satellites. If that happens, artillery from the Golden Age would be directed at the Tower and the Last City within minutes.
This is the Nightfall weapon of the week: As a reward for your run, you’ll always receive a special Nightfall weapon. In Season 18, Bungie has some good, old options to offer.
This week, the Auto Rifle “Duty Bound” is in the rotation.
Playlist Strikes have the following modifiers this week:
Solar Flare
Stasis Burn
Grounded
The Flare modifier accompanies you all week, while the others change daily.
The very last challenge is at hand. Whoever completes this and the remaining triumphs can officially call themselves “Kingslayer” (in English “Kingslayer”). But before that happens, every player must complete the last challenge task called “Hands Off” at the final boss Oryx in the raid.
The “Hands Off” challenge requires Guardians to think carefully about which Ogre and Knight they want to kill. Because no one on your team can defeat the same Light Eater Ogre and Light Eater Knight more than once. This applies to the entire fight, across all damage phases until the final showdown with the raid boss.
Expect the following raid requirements and challenges:
In Normal mode, completing a challenge grants you double loot.
The requirement for each encounter for Grandmasters is at power level 1600 with champions.
You can only obtain status-specific armor and master weapons from the Grandmaster raid.
You can also earn the new raid-exclusive exotic cosmetics in the Oryx style in Grandmaster.
Additional top rewards from the endgame can be obtained:
On the Moon in the Legacy raid “Glass Chamber”.
In the Dreaming City in the dungeon “The Broken Throne”.
So much glitter in the Glass Chamber: This week, there’s top loot at the final boss.
Weekly Activities
In Season 18, Guardians can currently play various seasonal activities. Players were turned into pirates with their own crew and collected cryptic quatrains.
Ketch Crash: Dive into ship-to-ship battles in this new 6-player activity to prevent Eramis and her pirate crew from plunging the galaxy into chaos. Here, you can earn top loot once a week on Grandmaster.
Expedition: Assemble treasure maps, look for treasures, and return to your ship while fending off enemy pirate crews.
Pirate Hideouts: Fight through weekly missions and claim powerful relics hidden in the hideouts of the pirate lords.
Officially, the seasonal quest is now completed. So anyone who played the Season recently has no new story step to accomplish this week. But we know that Mithrax and Eido are investigating the mysterious artifacts of Nezarek. So no one knows what they will discover and especially what else Bungie has planned in Season 18.
Additionally, the content of the current DLC “The Witch Queen” is still active and can be played. For example, in the weekly repeatable campaign mission. There, you can also earn top loot to reach the current max power level of 1580.
Savathun’s Throne World – Weekly Campaign Mission
“The Last Chance”
This week you can play the seventh campaign mission of the Witch Queen as a repeatable story mission. It is about following the trusted source of Eris, who informs you about an artifact in the Throne World that might hold the answer to how Savathun gained the Light.
Crucible – These are the PvP playlists:
Private Match
Rumble
Control
Elimination
Glory Survival
Glory Survival: Freelance
Conflict
Trials of Osiris (Starts October 21)
This week you get a bonus:
Commander Zavala shows generosity and grants some bonus rep ranks for participating in his Vanguard activities. Use it to secure the ornament of the seasonal ritual weapon.
Ascendant Challenge – Dreaming City
Petra Venj can now be found in the Dreaming City right at the spawn point – as always during the 2nd Curse week. Simultaneously, the 6th Ascendant Challenge is active.
Sources for top loot in Season 18 of Destiny 2
All top loot rewards in Destiny 2 are overviewed each week on MeinMMO.
So that you know where to effectively grab your top loot, we provide a quick overview of activities every week.
This is the new max level: In the new Season of Plunder, the maximum power level of your gear is 1,580. This means the power level at the start of the new Season 18 has increased by +10 compared to the previous Season 17. All players receive a base power level of 1,350.
This top loot brings your power level up to 1,580:
Complete 3 Vanguard Operations Strikes with appropriate focus (+1)
Hawthorne’s clan task: Earn 5000 XP (+1)
Trials of Osiris/ Starts October 21 (+2)
This is how you get free loot: For all new and returning Guardians who want to join in the future or after a break, Bungie has prepared the “Gift of the Thunder Gods” in Season 18.
You can pick up this loot chest for free at the H.E.L.M. after completing the “New Light” campaign. It will boost you to a power level of up to 1540 or more – with Arc gear and weapons, as well as two Exotics and ten Legendary items. You can also claim the rewards for all your characters once.
Shiny highlights in the Eververse
Bungie has not released much information about the cosmetics for this week. However, you can certainly expect many Halloween-themed items in the Eververse Shop, such as this winged teleport effect for 450 Shiny Dust.

Since October 4, 2022, players can play Overwatch 2 . However, for now, only in multiplayer mode. A PvE component for the hero shooter has already been announced – but when is the release, and will it cost anything?
The release of Overwatch 2 has already been a few weeks ago. With the major launch, only a multiplayer option was initially available for players. However, another mode has been announced by Blizzard: the PvE mode. But when will the expansion of the hero shooter be available?
What does the PvE mode include? On Blizzard’s news page, it currently states: “Additionally, we will advance the story with the release of the new PvE experience in 2023, along with more new heroes, maps, and game modes. We can’t wait to share more information with you shortly before the release! (via overwatch.blizzard.com)”.
We can therefore expect that additional content will also be integrated into the game with the new mode. The story is set to connect to the already known story from Overwatch. However, Blizzard does not provide more details about the PvE.
Here you can see a trailer for Overwatch 2:

Overwatch 2 makes fans optimistic with a new trailer “Set high hopes for the game”
When is the release of the PvE mode? No specific date for the release of the PvE mode in Overwatch 2 has officially been published yet. So far, we only know that the PvE mode is supposed to come in 2023. Also, Blizzard’s news states:
“Additionally, we are looking forward to telling you more about the PvE mode next year. It remains very close to our team’s heart, and you will soon learn how it will proceed” (via overwatch.blizzard.com).
The Overwatch 2 players will probably have to wait until 2023 for more comprehensive information about the PvE mode.
However, it is possible that this payment model only applies to the currently available multiplayer mode and that the PvE will be handled differently.
Is there a beta for the PvE mode? There has already been a beta for the multiplayer of Overwatch 2, in which players could test the shooter in advance. However, there is currently no beta available for the PvE mode.
Currently, the information regarding the Overwatch 2 PvE is still quite scarce. Blizzard has revealed hardly any details and initially focused on the multiplayer aspect of the hero shooter at the release.
However, if there are new information about the PvE in Overwatch 2, we will update this article and keep you informed.
What are your expectations for the PvE mode in Overwatch 2? Feel free to let us know in the comments.
Many warriors in WoW Classic are currently frustrated. While they were absolute top damage dealers in Classic and Burning Crusade, warriors find themselves in the back ranks in Wrath of the Lich King. The pros from the warrior Discord “Fight Club” have therefore long pondered how they can improve their damage output. But Blizzard is now throwing a spanner in the works.
This is how strong warriors used to be: In WoW Classic, warriors could always rely on securing the top spots in the damage meters. This is mainly due to the fact that this class scales particularly well with gear and buffs. We remember Classic, where raid groups often brought a lot of warriors along because, thanks to world buffs, hardly any other class could compete.
Also in The Burning Crusade, Fury warriors always mixed at the top. Although there were some difficulties at the beginning of the expansion, with better gear, warriors were able to reclaim their top spot.
Check out the trailer for the new Death Knight class here:
Start video
Whoever wants to play the new class in WoW WotLK Classic should start today
This is how things are going for warriors now: With WotLK Classic came the rude awakening. Both weapon and Fury warriors find themselves, in terms of damage, in the back ranks. But don’t worry, it’s not because warriors have become worse from TBC to WotLK.
Rather, it is that the other classes currently simply scale better. Many classes and specializations have received new talents and abilities that are responsible for their current success.
So it’s no wonder that some warriors have looked for ways to improve their damage. Their solution? A pair of gloves for level 53.
Warriors use items from Classic to increase their damage
What has the warrior Discord discovered? Now it gets tricky: Warriors have a talent called “Deep Wounds” (via wowhead). This talent ensures that your critical hits apply a bleeding effect to your target.
This effect deals 48% of your average weapon damage over 6 seconds. If you land a critical hit while the effect is already active, it renews itself for another 6 seconds. The more often this talent is triggered, the higher the damage dealt.
The pros from the warrior Discord have now discovered that weapon effects like the enchantment “Fiery Weapon” (via wowhead) can also critically hit and trigger the talent “Deep Wounds”.
This also applies to the “Fiery Plate Gauntlets” (via wowhead), a pair of gloves for level 53, which can be crafted by blacksmiths and add fire damage to your attacks. If you use both the enchantment and the gloves, you increase the chance to trigger the talent “Deep Wounds”, which in turn results in a higher average damage output.
Blizzard changes a talent to prevent a toxic meta playstyle
What has Blizzard changed? The discovery of the warrior Discord did not last long. With a hotfix, Blizzard has already reacted and removed the interaction between the talent “Deep Wounds” and non-physical effects from the game.
This is primarily aimed at preventing this trick from establishing itself as a new meta playstyle. Players might feel compelled to replicate this to continue getting invited to groups or raids. Also, from a technical standpoint, it should be noted that this playstyle would have become increasingly prevalent throughout Wrath of the Lich King. This is due, as explained earlier, to how warriors scale with better gear.
Although some players have pointed out that this is not a new bug, Blizzard insists that this interaction was not intended.
How is this received by the community? Most players see the whole issue with humor. There is much praise for the theorycrafters from the warrior Discord, who have previously popularized some curious discoveries.
On Reddit, there is a lot of schadenfreude, and numerous memes have emerged that make fun of the situation. Some warriors have already invested large amounts of gold to utilize the new playstyle in the next raid. On the largest servers, the prices for the enchantments or their reagents have already dramatically increased shortly after the news broke.
As always, there are also critical voices. Some players question whether Blizzard is setting the right priorities. There are numerous other problems and bugs that they believe deserved Blizzard’s attention first.
What do you think of these discoveries? Did Blizzard intervene too early? Or is it a good thing that Blizzard is also addressing such matters? Feel free to share your opinion in the comments!

The MMORPG Guild Wars 2 is well-known and loved for many things. However, the Jumping Puzzles in the game have always been controversial, testing your skill. For many, they are quite tough, but a streamer now shows that even the hardest of them can be mastered with your feet.
What exactly is the streamer playing? Among the countless Jumping Puzzles in Guild Wars 2, she has picked one of the absolutely hardest, and according to many players, even the hardest one – The Chalice of Tears. The puzzle is located in the Living World 3 map of Ember Bay and tests your skills and patience.
Because on the way to the top of the volcano, you must jump through its interior, which can sometimes be not only warm but also life-threatening for your character. A wrong jump in this puzzle will not only throw you back a few meters but usually kills your character.
But it’s not just that which makes the Chalice of Tears so difficult. Finding the path you need to take is hardly possible without a guide or help. You often have to jump blindly around corners, and even if you know the path, you often hope that the next step is indeed the right one.
By the way, you can now also play Guild Wars 2 on Steam:

How does she complete it? While many Guild Wars 2 fans already find the Jumping Puzzle difficult in the normal way, the streamer Luality takes on an even greater challenge. She plays the entire puzzle with her feet, on a dance pad.
She has bound the important functions of her character and the camera to different buttons on her mat and navigates her way through the Chalice of Tears step by step. At least for navigation, she gets support from a teammate.
You can watch the compilation on YouTube. But don’t be put off by the 37 minutes; live, Luality took significantly longer:

Who is Luality? The streamer Luality has been showcasing Guild Wars content on her channel for over 5 years and has specialized in unusual challenges over time. She often employs exciting input methods, such as the dance pad. According to her, she has played about 15,000 hours in GW2.
On her channel, she also demonstrates how she plays Elden Ring with a Guitar Hero controller or a stylus. Using a dance pad, she has also completed the tough boss Malenia.
If it’s not about the input, she utilizes various challenges in the game. This results in Elden Ring bosses that she defeats without magic, shield, or more.
This way, she averages 386 viewers on Twitch and has a total of 59,396 followers. On YouTube, she summarizes her successes for 40,900 subscribers, whose videos have been viewed a total of 6.2 million times (via sullygnome).
How do fans react? They are thrilled. Many comment under her video that they couldn’t even complete the Jumping Puzzle with their hands. They admire not only her personal skill but also her endurance. That she can remain so calm during this challenge.
One user points out that the entire attempt to master the Chalice of Tears took a whopping 5 hours.
Others rediscover their love for puzzles. They either remember the Chalice of Tears with fondness or hatred (via YouTube).
Luso writes: “The compilation is better than I thought. It was so much fun! The hardest jumping puzzle in the game.”
Joshua says: “Your jumping puzzles convinced me to play! They are so much fun, even though I don’t have [the Chalice of Tears] yet.”
Prince writes: “You’re just the best at everything.”
Jordan says: “Jumping puzzles have always been what I liked the least in GW2, no matter which controller.”
What do you think of the success? Have you mastered the Chalice of Tears yourself? Or do you still need it? Do you also find the use of the dance pad impressive? Feel free to let us know in the comments here on MeinMMO.
In World of Warcraft the Hallow’s End 2022 has started. We’ll show you how to unlock the achievement “Get it out”. It’s really simple.
What kind of achievement is that? For the Hallow’s End, there are many different achievements that play into the big achievement “Hallowed be your name”. This secures you the title “Nightmare”, which can be displayed next to the character’s name.
A sub-achievement is called “Get it out”. We’ll show you how that works really quickly.
Get it out – How to make yourself throw up in WoW
This is the task: In the game, it says “Eat so many candies that you get a stomach ache”. Translated in the game, this means that your character should throw up after consuming the event candies.
How does that work? Throughout the cities and villages, you will find buckets of candy during the Hallow’s End. These are large pumpkin-shaped buckets that display a quest exclamation mark.
If you go there and interact with them, you can complete the quest “Buckets of Candy” and receive a handful of candies in your inventory. When you open the item, you will receive a selection of different items and candies. So make sure you have enough space in your bags.
You need about 3-10 of the “Treats” items for the achievement. For safety, you can pack more of them. So visit various cities, camps, villages, and posts. You will find the buckets of candy everywhere at innkeepers.
Then open your inventory and eat a lot of “Treats” one after another. Spam right-click on the item.
This is what the required candies look like in the inventoryYou get the candies from these buckets
In our test, we only needed to eat three of the candies quickly one after another. Then the character threw up, and we got the achievement.
That’s all there is to it. By the way, farming the “Handful of Treats” is also part of an achievement of the Hallow’s End. So it might be worth it for you.

Are you looking for budget talents for the career mode of FIFA 23? Here we show you young players with a lot of potential who can be had for under a million.
Why talents are important: If you play the career mode of FIFA 23, you are trying to lead your club to the top of world football. But for that, you need strong players who can be quite expensive. Therefore, especially if you are playing a smaller club, you should focus on young talents.
And if you want to spend as little budget as possible, you should look for affordable talents that still have a lot of potential. You can improve them through training and playing experience to then sell them profitably or develop them into stars in your club.
An overview of the affordable talents in the FIFA 23 career mode that you can get for less than a million can be found here.
The best talents in FIFA 23 – For under 1 million.
What kind of list is this? In this overview, you will only see players under 23 years old who still have a lot of potential for development. None of them cost over 1 million euros in transfer fees. However, keep in mind that this only counts in the first season – over the course of the career, players can develop, become more expensive, or switch clubs.
The list offers talents for all positions. It is organized by the potential they can reach. However, it depends on your training and playing experience whether they achieve this.

Are you looking for talents in specific positions that can also be a bit more expensive? Then we have further overviews for you:
You should keep in mind: In career mode, it can happen that clubs sometimes propose higher transfer fees or release clauses. To avoid this, you should have your scouts constantly monitor the talents. This way, prices can be assessed more realistically when you request a transfer.
Which players do you use in your career? Do you rely on top players right from the start, or do you prefer to build your club up from the bottom to the top?
If you are more into Ultimate Team, you should definitely grab the following free pack:
Currently, there is no release date for the new The Division: Heartland. However, it is already known that developer Ubisoft is allowing players to test on the servers. One of these players has leaked 40 minutes of gameplay. MeinMMO has watched the entire video and reveals details.
For a long time, The Division: Heartland has been quiet. The new shooter in the Division universe was supposed to be released by the end of 2021 / early 2022, but that apparently did not happen.
Currently, there is no fixed release date, but Ubisoft is already allowing selected players to test. From this test, 40 minutes of uncut gameplay have now been released (via vk.com).
The Division: Heartland shows more gameplay – This is the new free shooter in the Division universe
The Division: Heartland – Leak shows the first 40 minutes
What does the gameplay show? You can see the first 40 minutes of the game. The agent completes the tutorial and is taken to the operations base. Here, your boss explains how you earn progress in the game and what it is all about.
Heartland makes it clear in an info text in the game itself: “The Division: Heartland is not a loot shooter.” The focus is on the survival aspect, with “survival” in the foreground. Loot such as weapons, equipment, and materials are significantly rarer than in the “normal” Division games.
Some missions may be too difficult to tackle directly. You should rather retreat and start an extraction by helicopter instead of dying. Because upon death, you lose the contents of your “Go-Bag” – the material and equipment bag for your outings through “Silver Creek.”
Over time, you improve your operations base and equipment. This allows you to be out and about in Silver Creek for longer, take on more difficult missions, and be better equipped against the threats of the game world. In addition to enemies, Heartland lists three major threats to players:
Contamination
Some areas are contaminated, and if you stay in them too long without a filter mask, you will get sick and lose health points.
Dehydration
You need to drink regularly, otherwise you will slow down, and your movement will generally not be as smooth.
Night
When it gets dark, Silver Creek becomes significantly more dangerous. Rogue agents are more frequently encountered, and contaminated zones are larger and unpredictable.
SHD stations assist you in exploring Silver Creek. Here, you uncover specific areas and receive information about “Points of Interest” nearby. You can also cure yourself of diseases. Over time, you further upgrade the stations and secure advantages from the operations base even when on the go.
More gameplay details:
New melee weapon with light and heavy strikes
Items for self-revival
Agents can “slide” to quickly change positions
How do missions run? You start your missions from a terminal within the operations base. If you are playing in a group, the agent with the least progress in the game is always the leader.
From the base, you are taken to the start of the mission and pursue your objectives. At any time, you can be attacked by hostile NPCs, but opposing players may also be lurking.
The mission designs are intended to encourage stealth, so you can reach better positions or bypass entire groups of enemies.
Overall, the focus of Heartland is more on fast action – compared to the MMORPG-like approaches of the main Division series.
Comparisons with well-known extraction shooters like Escape from Tarkov or Hunt: Showdown are obvious, but Division: Heartland guides you more, has a story, and does not take a hardcore approach where just one hit leads to a kill.
What does the story look like? Division agent Amber Mackenzie has been searching for her former commander Killian Tower since her activation. He has turned away from the Division and committed war crimes.
Mackenzie seeks revenge and an explanation for his decision to become a “rogue agent.”
The search has taken the agent across half of the USA to Silver Creek – a picturesque spot in the midst of the states. At least it was before the Dollar Flu. Now something is going on here. Even the Dollar Flu virus behaves differently.
The Division is here to unravel the mysteries and restore some peace to Silver Creek. But first, they need to clean up.

Steam is known for its huge selection of games, and some of them certainly seem crazy. One such game is Brotato, a roguelite for €5 that lets you fight aliens in the form of a heavily armed potato.
Which game is it about? The new potato game was released on September 27, 2022, on Steam and is actually called Brotato. So the name is a mix of the English terms Brother / Bro and Potato.
Brotato is available for €4.99 on Steam and stands out there with a strong 95% positive reviews. The title is currently still in Early Access, but the developers assume that the game will not cost more afterwards (via Steam).
What is the game about? Brotato describes itself as an arena shooter roguelite. You will be thrown into an arena and must fight off alien hordes with weapon force. You yourself take on the role of a living, heavily armed potato with a face, little arms, and legs.
In order to defend yourself adequately against the approaching enemies, you can equip your potato with up to 6 weapons simultaneously. In addition, you can choose various items and abilities to create your own build.

Brotato – Early Access Trailer
What features does the game offer? The developers list a number of features on Steam that Brotato has. These include “hundreds of items and weapons” as well as “dozens of characters.”
Therefore, you don’t always have to play the same potato, but you can vary between your characters. Examples listed on the Steam page include a wizard, a lucky guy, but also a one-armed potato.
“This game is really a banger”
Where does the recommendation come from? The popular German content creator HandOfBlood tested the game Brotato in a video on YouTube. The video went online on October 14, 2022, with the title “Please buy this €5 game!” and lasts nearly 1.5 hours.

What does HandOfBlood say? At the end of his test, Hänno gives a recommendation for the game: “Guys, that was an intense video. […] Play this game! Five euros!”
Even in the video description, the positive impression that Brotato apparently left is made clear: “This game is really a banger… I tested Brotato today and I am really excited.”
