Twin Drums, an indie studio from Berlin, is currently working on The Wagadu Chronicles, a new MMORPG for PC and Mac. The project fully focuses on the role-playing factor of the genre and features a unique setting.
What kind of game is this? In 2022, The Wagadu Chronicles announced itself as an MMORPG focusing on RPG, not grind. The game is inspired by Dungeons & Dragons, one of the most famous and largest role-playing games in the world.
As in D&D, you create your own character, but here you choose an “ancestral line” instead of races. This determines your origin and roughly your role in this world. You should be able to fully immerse yourself in the role you choose and create:
There is no focus on equipment with better stats or grind
There are also no classes, only predefined skills
The story plays a bigger role
In groups, you should be able to interact with a “dialogue mode”
Questions about the game are asked in “off-world lobbies” to avoid breaking immersion
The Wagadu Chronicles describes itself as Afro-Fantasy and seems to be set in a fantasy version of Africa. You can check out the gameplay and world here in the alpha trailer:

Alpha 2 starts “soon” – Joining is easy
When does the Alpha start? In the latest tweet from the developers, it is stated that the 2nd Alpha starts “soon”. There is no specific date yet.
Shortly before the announcement, however, new information about the game was provided, including some details about the magic system. Many spells apparently orient themselves to well-known templates from Dungeons & Dragons.
The game is based on a set of rules that should be compatible with the 5th edition of D&D. This will even be released as its own pen & paper.
How can I join? Unlike the first Alpha of The Wagadu Chronicles, you do not have to pay 140 € on Kickstarter. Instead, it should be enough to simply sign up for the newsletter:
You then have the chance to be invited to the alpha test and will also receive a 300-page lore book as a PDF. This serves as the basis for both the MMORPG and the corresponding pen & paper.
Whether the game will later be Free2Play, Buy2Play, or follow a subscription model is not yet known. A specific release date is still pending. However, a corresponding book is supposed to be released in autumn 2022.

Season 17 starts today with a new week in Destiny 2 and many are eagerly anticipating what end Caiatl will face with her nightmare. In addition, there are more contents awaiting you this week. You will find out what exactly on MeinMMO.
This week: Caiatl will once again be forced to confront her nightmare Ghaul. If the current Empress of the Cabal succeeds, the connection to the Moon Pyramid will be significantly weakened. Despite the large and smooth successes, the nightmare liberation of the NPCs seems suspiciously easy.
Calus has sacrificed too much to be taken out so quickly, so it remains to be seen what deceptive plan the former Cabal Emperor is pursuing and whether he will still bear fruit.
Where is Emperor Calus hiding?
Important information about activities from 28.06. to 05.07.
You will face many Cabal with Solar and Void shields. Additionally, you must defeat the boss “Bracus Tynoc,” who often unleashes his horde of war beasts upon you.
This is the Nightfall weapon of the week: In the 6th week of Season “The Haunted”, you can earn a special Nightfall weapon.
The Nightfall weapon this week is not yet known and will be updated in due time
Playlist Strikes have these modifiers:
Void Singe
Grenadier
Iron
The singeing modifier accompanies you all week, while the others change daily.
Master this week’s easiest challenge in the final encounter of the raid “Oath of the Student” called “Loop Catalyst”. To complete the challenge, your team must maintain at least one stack of the buff “Siphoning Strength” before the damage phase on Rhulk.
As a reward for the challenge in the final section of the Grandmaster raid, this week you have a chance to earn a Master version of the weapons glaive “Lubraes Ruin,” the pulse rifle “Insidious,” or the grenade launcher “Persistence.” However, keep in mind that Hard and Normal modes share the loot.
Additional top-tier rewards from the endgame are:
In the raid “Garden of Salvation” in the Black Garden.
With Season 17, new activities have also come to the game. Explore the derelict Leviathan and confront the nightmares or surprising boss opponents in the new patrol zone. Equip the Solar Senses there and defend yourself in the Nightmare Containment. In addition, these weekly activities await you:

With the High Isle update, the developers of The Elder Scrolls Online brought the Oakensoul Ring into the game. PvE fans are happy about the useful buffs, while PvP players complain that the ring is too strong and that you have no chance without it.
What kind of item is this? It is a Mythic item that all players want since the High Isle update. The Oakensoul Ring is great for solo-PvE as it provides you with valuable buffs.
Here you can watch the trailer of the new High Isle update:
Start video
New gameplay trailer celebrates the release of ESO High Isle on PS5, PS4 and Xbox
The item ruins PvP gameplay for some players
While wearing the Oakensoul Ring in PvP does not automatically make you a god, you are still stronger. With the ring, you are very resilient, nimble, have high crit values, and deal enormous damage. Players without the ring are clearly at a disadvantage.
Some classes are now harder to play in PvP because opponents deal too much damage with the ring and are constantly down. This is particularly true for the necromancer.
As a result, many players are dissatisfied and wish for the ring to be weakened in the next update or to be disabled in PvP. This is what the reddit community says:
redlink1979: “People in PvP with the buffs of a raid team … enough said.”
AngryAmour: “Disable the ring in PvP but leave everything else as is.”
Fhritz_: “Some of the buffs need to be disabled in PvP. They are way too strong.”
Shuck-Lee: “The ring is good for PvE, but disable it for PvP. It makes the worst builds relevant, regardless of what sets are worn.”
The community is also discussing the fact that fights with the ring equipped are too easy. Some find the gameplay too boring because they hardly have to do anything anymore.
PvE fans love the ring
Players who focus on PvE have a much better reception of the Oakensoul Ring. While some still find it boring, most are enthusiastic.
Especially users with physical disabilities are happy not to have to press so many buttons anymore. For them, the gameplay is now easier.
RockWhisperer42 explains his situation: “I have multiple sclerosis, which affects my coordination from my brain to my hand. Switching between bars and getting a rotation down was hard for me. The ring allows me to pull 48k with my Magplar. […] I’m very happy that it exists now.”
Blindpandacup is also relieved: “I mostly play solo and regularly experience hand pain due to my arthritis. This ring is a godsend for me.”
bajur says: “It makes the game more accessible for people with disabilities.”
Even players without physical disabilities appreciate the Oakensoul Ring in PvE. It makes it easier for them to tackle difficult bosses. Here’s what PvE fans say:
HickRarrison says: “Honestly, the ring eliminates some of the problems I have in combat in ESO. The constant buffing and weapon switching becomes exhausting after a while.”
Colest says: “The popularity of the ring indicates that players don’t find it very fun to trigger 3 to 5 buffs again every 20 seconds.”
GradeTimely says: “I really hope they don’t nerf the ring. Otherwise, they will lose an ESO+ member.”
What’s your opinion on the Oakensoul Ring? Do you use it, are you farming it right now, or do you prefer to skip it? Do you play more PvE or PvP in ESO? Is the item too strong? Feel free to let us know in the comments here on MeinMMO!
The Day Before is the most wanted game on the Steam platform. Now, the developers Fntastic are looking for volunteers to help in the development of the game unpaid.
What will The Day Before be about? The Day Before is a survival shooter that will be released on Steam. It takes place in a zombie apocalypse, where you fight for your survival.
The first trailers give hints about gameplay content. You will need to take care of resources that secure your survival or you can rush through the apocalyptic landscape with vehicles.
Many are eagerly awaiting the release. Currently, The Day Before ranks number 1 in the Steam list of “Most Wanted” (as of June 28, 2022, via store.steampowered.com).
When is the release of the game? Originally, The Day Before was announced for June 21, 2022. The date has now been pushed back a year to March 1, 2023.
For more precise information about the game and the reason why the release date was postponed, you can find it here.
Here you can see a gameplay trailer for The Day Before:

“Fntastic’s culture is based on the idea of volunteer work”
What does Fntastic mean by “volunteers”? On their website, the company explains what is meant by the term “volunteers” (via fntastic.com).
There are two ways to help as a volunteer at Fntastic:
Full-time
Part-time
Full-time volunteers work for money. The spots for this are limited. As a part-time volunteer, anyone can help out. As compensation, the company offers “cool rewards, participation certificates, and free codes”.
According to Fntastic, the tasks for part-time volunteers include various activities. They explicitly mention translation activities and community moderation as examples. It is also possible for part-time volunteers to contribute their own skills and improve the game.
MeinMMO asked Fntastic for a statement on the matter. A response is still pending.
How does the community respond on reddit? The reactions to Fntastic’s strategy are mixed (via reddit).
On one hand, there are many critical comments:
whatnameisnttaken098 says: “So, they want people to develop a massive MMO… unpaid?”
StabilitySpace is also skeptical: “Everything about this company just looks weird.”
On the other hand, there are also users who defend the company. They argue that Fntastic only assigns small tasks, like forum moderation, to volunteers and “instead of having no translations at all, they allow fans to do the translations.”

The player “WeloBk” achieved 47 solo kills in Call of Duty: Warzone single-handedly, setting a new world record. And this just shortly after the new map “Fortune’s Keep” was launched.
Interestingly, WeloBk achieved the record all by himself. He played “Solo versus Quads,” thus playing alone against players in four-man teams.
In this game mode on Fortune’s Keep, a total of 40 players compete against each other, and the “killed” players can respawn after a certain time, as long as a team member is alive. This way, one can also achieve more kills than there are players participating in the match.
Many streamers and CoD professionals specifically select this mode in their videos to face the greatest challenge and prove their skills.
Here in the trailer, you can see more about the map “Fortune’s Keep”:
Start video
CoD Warzone finally shows more of the new map in Season 4 – Trailer and images of Fortune’s Keep
This is how WeloBk achieved the world record
Who is WeloBk? WeloBk uploads videos on Twitch and YouTube. His Twitch channel has 5,844 followers, and his YouTube channel has approximately 1,860 subscribers. (As of June 28, 2022, via Twitch and YouTube)
What happens in WeloBk’s video? After a brief greeting, the gameplay starts immediately. Highly focused, the YouTuber begins his kill series and takes out one player after another.
In the end, he broke the world record with 47 kills. Just a few hours earlier, NoFaTe had managed to set the world record with 44 kills on the “Fortune’s Keep” map.
WeloBk was visibly excited. He repeatedly exclaimed, “Oh my God!” and emphasized that he was convinced that he would set the world record that day.
Here you can watch his English video about the world record:

What do his viewers say about it? Under WeloBk’s YouTube video, viewers celebrate his success: BO Clark commented, “W Welo!!! Great job”. “Let’s go, weloo” said user tld. (via youtube.com)
Why is the world record so impressive? WeloBk played alone against several four-man teams, which could coordinate and split up. This increased the difficulty of setting the world record and made victory harder.
However, it worked out for WeloBk.
Time and again, Twitch streamers or YouTubers manage to set world records. Sometimes, success is only temporary: A YouTuber made a huge effort for a record, but lost it again after 3 seconds.

Eventually, every football player must end their career. We show you 5 football stars who will no longer appear in FIFA 23.
There are football players like Buffon (44), Ibrahimovic (40), and Ronaldo (37) who seemingly will never stop playing football. But these players are the exception, as many players pay tribute to age and end their professional careers this summer or move to leagues that FIFA simply has not licensed.
We show you 5 famous footballers who will be missing in FIFA 23.
Sergio Agüero
This is Sergio “Kun” Agüero: The Argentine striker is especially known for his time at Manchester City. There he became a club legend and won everything one can win except for the Champions League. He later moved to the Spanish league to FC Barcelona and signed a contract until 2023.
However, he could not fulfill this. The then 33-year-old Agüero had to end his career in December 2021 due to heart problems. Thus, his FUT-22 card will remain his last for the time being.
James Rodriguez
This is James Rodriguez: The Colombian had a brilliant career, which he crowned at Real Madrid with the winning of two “Champions League” titles. After that, the offensive midfielder moved to FC Bayern Munich, FC Everton, and then to al-Rayyan SC in Qatar. However, he could not recapture the performances of his early days.
Now, the former superstar, at 30, is seeking a move to Botafogo in Brazil. And since Brazil’s first league has consistently been missing in FIFA in recent years, it is very likely that there will be no FUT-23 card for “James.”
Which leagues and clubs could potentially be added in FIFA 23, you can find out here:
This is Marcel Schmelzer: In recent years, it has been quiet around the former German national player, who played professionally only for Borussia Dortmund. Throughout his career, he won two German championships and 3 DFB-Pokal titles with BVB.
Now the 34-year-old left-back is hanging up his boots and will thus no longer be playable in FIFA 23. However, in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team, you can still get a really strong End-of-Era card of Schmelzer.
This is Martin Hinteregger: The Austrian center-back played for Red Bull Salzburg, Borussia Mönchengladbach, FC Augsburg, and most recently Eintracht Frankfurt. His biggest achievement was undoubtedly the spectacular winning of the UEFA Europa League last season.
Now the only 29-year-old is surprisingly ending his professional career and will thus no longer appear on the pitch or in FIFA 23.
Jermain Defoe
This is Jermain Defoe: The English striker legend had his most successful time at Tottenham and Sunderland, where he scored and assisted numerous goals. Now EA honors the 39-year-old at the end of his career with a strong End-of-Era card in FUT 22, as he has announced his retirement.
In the long run, it is certainly possible that some of these players will return to FIFA again – namely as Icon cards in FIFA 23.
When FIFA 23 will be released is still open. However, more and more information about the new series installment is coming together. An overview of the FIFA 23 release and all leaks can be found here.

Chance “Sodapoppin” Morris is a well-known streamer on Twitch. He achieved huge success in 2019 with the release of WoW Classic. Still, he feels that an employee at Blizzard must hate him terribly. Because he doesn’t get access to beta events and, according to his own account, experienced a bizarre situation around the release of the Paladin in Diablo 3.
What happened with Diablo 3? Sodapoppin reports that a PR company made him an offer for a sponsored video years ago. All he had to do was showcase the new Paladin class in Diablo 3:
I was 19 years old and they didn’t even pay that much. But still, I was excited, and all they wanted was a YouTube video of me playing and showcasing the Paladin class.
But shortly after, the company called him again and explained that the deal would not go through. They then offered him 50% of the money as an apology so that he would not publish the already completed video:
The management company said: “Hey, Blizzard doesn’t like you at all and we messed it up. We’re sorry. They don’t want you to make the video. But you already made the video and we promised to pay you. Here’s what we can offer you. We’ll give you half the money so you don’t publish it. And if you publish it, then you get nothing.

Was the video deal an exception? Apparently not. Sodapoppin reports that even though he placed 8th in the most viewed Twitch channels in 2016, he was not invited to the beta of Overwatch by Blizzard:
He was supposed to have multiple contacts who promised him a spot in the second wave of the beta.
But when the wave of invitations went out, the streamer was left out. He wasn’t considered in later waves either.
Sodapoppin suspects that there is someone at Blizzard who has implemented a “personal vendetta” against him.
He also did not receive access to other betas, such as WoW Classic or BC Classic.
More about Sodapoppin and Twitch in general on MeinMMO:
Has anything changed now? The streamer himself says he was a different person back then and deserved to be overlooked. He calls his former self “really, really bad”.
But today he is no longer like that. Still, he was again only invited to the beta of Wrath of the Lich King Classic. Exactly from that came his statements on stream about Blizzard.

Diablo Immortal offers a ton of rewards, all of which are hidden behind daily or weekly limits. A simple tool helps you not to overlook any source for important items.
What kind of website is this?DailyImmortal provides you with a list of all daily, weekly, and monthly tasks along with their rewards and resets. You only need to set the appropriate server region for the right times.
Most of this serves to improve your combat rating. Through a checklist, you can tick off what you have already completed and see what is still pending.
Additionally, the website shows you how much time you have left to complete the tasks – or conversely, when you can complete them again. A timer counts down for the resets:
at 3:00 AM German time for daily tasks
on Mondays, after the weekly reset
every month, to buy your monthly legendary emblem from the vendor
How exactly legendary gems work and how you can obtain them, you can see here in the video:
Start video
Diablo Immortal: What are legendary gems? Facts and locations in 3 minutes
Daily tasks and resets at a glance
How do I use the tool correctly? The operation is quite simple: You select a task or work through the list from top to bottom. Then you check off when you have completed an activity and move on to a new one.
It is important that some tasks are only considered “completed” when you receive a certain number of items. For example, if you have received 6 normal gems in the legendary vaults, you can check off the task and start a new one.
With the above timers running out, tasks will otherwise automatically reset. An exception is the bosses of the hellish reliquary, which you can complete twice a week with resets on Monday and Thursday.
Be aware that DailyImmortal only tracks the tasks that guarantee you rewards in the game. If you want to collect sets or legendaries, you have to do that through a separate counter.
The tool is suitable for all classes. You can find on MeinMMO our tier list for Diablo Immortal and in the video gameplay for all classes of the game:
Start video
Diablo Immortal: All 6 Classes in Brief Overview with Gameplay
When should I use the tool? DailyImmortal is suitable for all types of players. Since the daily limits apply to both free-to-play players and paying customers, everyone gains an advantage from the checklist.
However, you benefit the most when you have little time and want to use it as efficiently as possible. If you only have an hour a day, quickly find the rewards you want and complete the corresponding tasks.
On the other hand, if you simply want to play Diablo and slay some demons, you don’t necessarily need the tool. The idea is more aimed at players who want to optimize themselves.

Many games are currently on sale in the Steam Summer Sale. One of them is the MMORPG Project: Gorgon, a true hidden gem with very positive reviews on Steam. You can currently get it for half price.
What kind of game is this? Project: Gorgon is a fantasy MMORPG developed by Elder Game and LLC. The setting is reminiscent of classic old games like Everquest or Asheron’s Call.
At the same time, it focuses more on PvE and offers an open world that you can explore freely. A lot of the MMORPG’s content you have to discover for yourself – there are no clear paths or quests to guide you through the gameplay.
There are no predefined classes like in most other MMORPGs. Over time, you develop your character further and level up your skills.
Although the game is designed for a multiplayer experience, it is also very playable solo. You can befriend not only real players but also NPCs. Similar to Lost Ark, in Project: Gorgon, you build relationships with NPCs to receive rewards and progress in the story.

No classes: Instead, the game offers a continuous expansion of various skills.
You can currently get the MMORPG on Steam for €16.99. Normally it costs €33.99.
Players praise the depth of the MMORPG
On Steam, Project: Gorgon currently has a “very positive” rating, with nearly 82% of the 1,590 reviews rating the game positively.
What is particularly praised is that players must work through the content of the MMO themselves. Most games in the genre guide players through the story and show precise paths. Sometimes there is even a function to automatically walk to the goal. Project: Gorgon offers exactly the opposite, and players love it.
The community is also highlighted positively. Players of Project: Gorgon are friendly and help each other because they know it can be difficult to progress.
Additionally, players praise the skill system, which works entirely without a class system.
Whatdo players say on Steam:
Jen242: “The game doesn’t look pretty, but the world is full of magic and wonder.”
Eredien: “I haven’t had this much fun since I discovered computer games in the early 90s.”
Caleon: “A lot of freedom! While there are some quests, a big part of the game is also exploration. Those who need a guide or quest marker for every step are guaranteed to be in the wrong place.”
Who is the game worth it for? For players who want to discover a new world without being guided too much. Project: Gorgon thrives on tricky puzzles and is therefore aimed at players who enjoy engaging deeply with dialogues and texts. You need a lot of patience for the game.
Furthermore, Project: Gorgon appeals to fans of old-school MMORPGs. An accordingly dated graphic should not bother you.
What do you think about Project: Gorgon? Will you take advantage of the deal and buy the game? Have you perhaps played it already? Or is the open world too exhausting for you, and would you prefer a game that shows you the way? Feel free to let us know in the comments here on MeinMMO!
Warlocks get a short breather in World of Warcraft. Their nerfs have been postponed, but hunters are already worried.
Just recently, we reported that destruction warlocks will have to endure a significant nerf and their power in World of Warcraft will be weakened. Just a few hours later, Blizzard backtracks due to player protests and cancels the nerfs.
Did the “whining” help here? No, as players have good reasons why the nerfs are coming at such a bad time.
What kind of nerfs are these? The tier set of destruction warlocks is set to be weakened. The summoned infernals from the set bonus “Blasphemy” will no longer have the effect “Rain of Chaos”. This means that Blasphemy can no longer create additional chaos beasts that deal high area damage and generate soul shards. Warlocks could then hardly keep up with spending soul shards and could use their most powerful spells almost without interruption.
WoW isAdvertising in a curious way:

Why did Blizzard postpone the nerfs? The reason for this is likely the MDI, the “Mythic Dungeon International”. This is one of Blizzard’s esports events, where the best teams in the world compete against each other to complete extremely challenging “Mythic+” dungeons as quickly as possible.
The tournament starts in just a few weeks, and the practice phase has already begun. Many teams have chosen their members and classes based on the current balance. The changes would ruin the planning of these teams and create chaos. However, during the MDI, a fair playing field with consistent rules is desired.
Blizzard stated:
In response to player feedback, we have decided not to implement the changes to destruction warlocks this week. We expect to implement these changes along with those for survival hunters at the start of Season 4.
In our adjustments from April 20, we adjusted destruction warlocks and survival hunters to regulate their performance in Mythic+ dungeons. These changes were not enough, and we need to make further adjustments. But we are aware that this would have a significant impact on players who have invested a lot of time and effort into these two specializations for the rest of the current Mythic+ season.
Please prepare for the reduction of damage from destruction warlocks and survival hunters in situations with many targets at the beginning of Season 4.
What happens to hunters? Survival hunters are also on Blizzard’s target list. They are currently dealing far too much damage in “AoE situations” and drastically outpace all other classes—except warlocks. Therefore, hunters can also expect significant nerfs.
When will the nerfs come? With the start of Season 4. There is still no specific date for this, but it is currently estimated that there are about 4 to 8 weeks remaining before Shadowlands enters its final, 4th season. Until then, warlocks and hunters can still enjoy their strength a little and deal so much damage in situations with many simultaneous targets that other classes cannot keep up.
Do you think it is good that Blizzard takes this into account? Or should nerfs always come immediately when they are necessary—regardless of whether a tournament is currently taking place?

The first Battle Pass of Diablo Immortal ends on July 7, exactly 5 weeks after the release. Still, there is no information about what is supposed to come right after, and the fans are slowly getting restless.
The most important points at a glance:
On June 1st/2nd, Diablo Immortal officially launched worldwide and achieved great successes with the release.
However, the sense of novelty is fading among players, and they are waiting for updates. So far, there has been no significant patch.
Now, global community lead Adam Fletcher reveals that the first update is likely to be coming soon and is expected to focus on the Battle Pass (via reddit.com).
When will new content arrive? According to Fletcher, you can expect the first update “within the next few weeks.” He says it should come “towards the end of the current Battle Pass.”
The Battle Pass ends already on July 7, which is why many fans are now unsure about what to expect. Because there are still no patch notes and no specific date for the update. However, Fletcher is at least providing some information.
The Realm of Damnation was the last trailer with truly new info about the game just before release:

The first update focuses on the Battle Pass
What will be included in the first update? In the relatively short comment on reddit, Fletcher explains that the first update is mainly intended to focus on the Battle Pass. Assuming current activities in the pass, possible contents could be:
Dungeons
Portals
Bounties
Battlefields
Side quests
These contents are the targets for activities and quests for the Battle Pass. Whether the focus on this means that more variation will come or simply more tasks is something Fletcher has not revealed yet.
The update is also supposed to include “some features, fixes, and so on,” which have not yet been detailed. However, Fletcher teased new story content for the future.
What other content is coming? We already know that the class change for Diablo Immortal is coming. This allows you to play a different class with a cooldown without having to level up a second character.
Here you can see gameplay of the classes that have been released so far. In our Tier list for Diablo Immortal, you can find out which classes are the best.

We have already asked Blizzard how exactly the upcoming contents will look and when they will arrive. An answer is still pending. More details on the timing of upcoming updates should be in the first patch notes. Currently, there is still no information about that.

The live event for the Pokémon GO Fest in Berlin is just around the corner, so you should make the most of the time until the start for your preparations. We at MeinMMO show you 7 tips to be best prepared for the event.
What kind of event is it? At the beginning of June, Niantic held a global Pokémon GO Fest. This event is now entering the next round in the form of a total of three live events in the cities of Berlin, Seattle, and Sapporo. Germany is starting first, which is why the GO Fest in Berlin begins this weekend.
To participate, you need a special ticket. This can be booked through the Niantic ticket page for one of the event days. Below, we will show you how to best prepare for the live event so that you do not waste valuable time on-site and what you should consider in your event planning.
When does the GO Fest Berlin take place? The event runs for a total of three days from July 1 to July 3, 2022, each day from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. local time. Those who have a special “Early Access” ticket can also start playing as early as 9:00 a.m.
7 Tips for Preparing for the GO Fest in Berlin
Those who have gotten a ticket for the GO Fest in Berlin can look forward to numerous spawns and bonuses this upcoming weekend. However, the event time on-site is limited and thus precious, which is why you should prepare for it now.
It is also helpful if you think about a few points in advance to avoid unpleasant surprises at the event. Below we have summarized 7 tips that should help you prepare for the GO Fest in Berlin.
1. Plan your travel and book accommodation
The most important preparation is to plan your travel to the live event. Think in advance about how to get to Britzer Garten in Berlin. Also consider which entrance you selected when purchasing your ticket, as you can only enter the park at that entrance.
As the operators of the location themselves state on their homepage, there are only a few parking spaces available on-site (via britzergarten.de). Therefore, it’s best to use public transport.
Regardless of the way you travel, make sure to allow plenty of time to avoid wasting valuable time in Britzer Garten. According to Niantic, entry is possible from 8:00 a.m. local time, but the event content will only be unlocked when your booked time starts.
Book a hotel: If you are not from the area near Berlin, you may want to arrange accommodation. However, the availability of hotel rooms around the event location is currently quite poor, and prices are now correspondingly high. So if you need a place to stay, you should take care of this as soon as possible. A list of possible hotels can be found on the Pokémon GO page.
What do you need for entry? To enter the park, you will only need your confirmation email for the ticket purchase and your digital ticket in the game. You will need to show this to the staff on-site.
2. Organize Pokémon storage
Before the GO Fest in Berlin starts, you should significantly sort out your Pokémon storage. This way, you can play on-site without having to constantly transfer monsters. Especially the new Shinys, Tarnpignon, and Grillmak will be interesting for many players. If you want to make the most of the 7 hours of general access, you should have at least 500 free slots for the event.
For sorting, it’s best to use the filter and tag functions in the game, allowing you to sort your monsters directly by strength. By entering the search function “0*,1*,2*”, you will see all Pokémon that have a maximum of 2 stars.
Search filter in Pokémon GO
If you still need to sort monsters during the event, the filter “Alter0” is also recommended. This shows you only monsters that are not older than 24 hours. This way, you can directly separate yourself from the useless ones you caught at the GO Fest in Berlin.
3. Collect balls, berries, and important items
During the GO Fest, you will need a lot of balls and berries. Since the Community Day with Kapuno has likely cost you many of them, you should replenish your stock accordingly. Trainers with a ticket for general access, and thus 7 hours of playtime, should have at least 350 balls available.
Stock up on Poké Balls
Trainers with extended access to the GO Fest in Berlin will need more balls accordingly. Of course, you can also earn new balls on-site, but it’s important to have a good foundation laid ahead of time so that your items don’t suddenly run out.
We will show you an overview of how to get balls in Pokémon GO in our related article:
What items are also important? Depending on the Pokémon, it’s also worth using Sananabeeren when catching. These provide you with double candies. So make sure to stock up on these as well.
If you want to participate in raids on-site, also think about premium battle passes and golden Himmihbeeren. You’ll also need sufficient revives and potions to restore your monsters after the battle. Additionally, you can use incense to attract even more Pokémon.
Items needed for the GO Fest in Berlin
4. Prepare and charge your devices
To enjoy the GO Fest in Berlin without worry and without technical problems, you should prepare your devices in advance and fully charge your smartphones. Also, take a power bank with you so you can charge your phone again while on the go. Don’t forget to fully charge this beforehand as well.
Also, make sure that your power bank has a sufficiently high capacity and can ideally provide more than one charge.
For trainers still looking for a good power bank, we have included affiliate links below. If you order a product through them, we receive a small commission from the provider. This does not affect your price!
Oops, unfortunately this affiliate widget is no longer available.
5. Check the weather
Before making your way to the GO Fest in Berlin, you should check the weather for your booked event day. Currently, it is expected to be particularly warm on all three days. Therefore, also think about appropriate sun protection.
Even in case of rain, the live event will take place. Therefore, you should also think about weather-appropriate clothing as well as bring rain protection, such as a poncho or umbrella.
During the GO Fest in Berlin, you should also think about having enough food and drinks. There will be water refill stations in Britzer Garten where you can fill up your water bottles. So definitely bring a bottle with you.
Additionally, you can also get something to eat on-site from the snack stands. However, if you do not want to spend money for this, you can also bring packaged food and drinks into the park. You should organize these in advance.
7. Plan meetings with content creators
The GO Fest in Berlin also has another special feature for you. Numerous content creators, such as Spieletrend, Trainer Tips, ChaosLady, or The Trainer Club, will be on-site during the event.

What preparations are you making before the GO Fest in Berlin? Which event day will you be there? Or did you not buy a ticket for the live event at all? Feel free to share your thoughts on this here on MeinMMO in the comments and exchange ideas with other trainers.
Those who participated in Destiny 2 in hardcore PvP “Trials of Osiris” this weekend immediately noticed: The old weapon exotic “No Time to Explain” from Beyond Light surprisingly dominated a large part of the matches. MeinMMO has time for explanations and tells you why this pulse rifle is so strong right now and how you can get it.
This is the new meta in hardcore PvP: After Bungie made some adjustments in Season 17, it is now clear that pulse rifles are the big winners of Season 17.
The strength and dominance of this weapon could be experienced this weekend in the “Trials of Osiris”. The pulse rifle “No Time to Explain” achieved nearly 2 million Guardian kills in a single weekend.
Pulse rifles dominated the Trials weekend from June 24 to 28.
The weapon exotic, which came into the game with Beyond Light via the Season 12 pass, currently benefits from the general buff for pulse rifles in Season 17.
Until then, pulse rifles struggled to compete with weapon types like hand cannons or to take their top spots in the PvP weapon rankings.
What makes the pulse rifle “No Time to Explain” so strong? Essentially, the aggressive pulse rifle, which fires automatically, has never really been bad in Destiny 2.
Guardians could use it to take down their opponents with just 2 shots. The TTK of “No Time to Explain” is only 0.67 seconds. In addition, its range is good, allowing you to fight over long distances and surprise enemies with high damage.
The exotic “No Time to Explain” came to Destiny 2 with the DLC “Beyond Light” in 2020.
Now, after the changes in Season 17, Guardians have recognized that the strengths of this weapon have become even more effective.
Pulse rifles received a slight buff in Season 17 .
They now deal slightly increased damage for more kills with fewer needed critical hits.
Moreover, the new “effectiveness in the air” means that there are simply fewer hand cannons and more pulse rifles being used.
In general, most weapons are now more accurate in the air, but it has also become much less likely to score headshots.
The lack of the mod “Icarus Grip” is less relevant for the exotic “No Time to Explain”.
And the seasonal artifact additionally offers players a mod for “Pulse Rifle Targeting,” which makes the efficient use of the exotic “No Time to Explain” easier than ever.
The exotic trait offers an additional advantage: The weapon provides its bearer with a small “time dimension turret” through the exo-perk “Rewind”, which automatically fires at enemies and is also beneficial when reloading. Because enemies affected by Stasis or slowed down as well as precision hits return your bullets directly to the magazine. If you also have the catalyst, projectiles from the time portal fire more frequently.
Other pulse rifles also benefit from the buff in Season 17: Due to the changes, the pulse rifle “Short and Snappy” has also established itself in second place in the hardcore mode of the Trials.
The legendary pulse rifle came into the game with the Season of the Risen and offers, with the right perks, equally impressive range, accuracy, and great stability.
The pulse rifle “Short and Snappy” from Season 16.“The Messenger” – The Trials pulse rifle from Season 13
The former favorite of Guardians, the Trials pulse rifle “The Messenger” in the master version, is losing significance.
After Bungie nerfed the best perk of this weapon “Desperado”, which increased the rate of fire after a precision kill, it’s simply not the same anymore. You can see this in the current weapon statistics in the Trials Report from June 24 to 28.
This weekend, pulse rifles primarily dominated the Trials, but “The Messenger” is far behind:
“No Time to Explain”, 340 RPM – 1,741,446 Kills (5%)
“Short and Snappy”, 540 RPM – 1,415,536 Kills (4%)
“BxR-55 Monarch”, 450 RPM – 551,094 Kills (2%)
“The Messenger” (Adept), 340 RPM – 500,958 Kills (1%)
More posts about Destiny 2 can be found on MeinMMO:
How to get the Exotic “No Time to Explain”? If you also want to prove yourself as a pulse rifle killer in PvP or the “Trials of Osiris”, you should definitely get this exotic from the DLC “Beyond Light”.
Players must either own the Digital Deluxe Edition or the Standard Edition plus the Season Pass from Season 12 of the “Beyond Light” expansion to obtain the weapon in 2022.
The weapon can then be unlocked via a campaign quest from the Strange Exo on the ice moon Europa using the catalyst.
Have you already noticed the newfound benefits of the exotic pulse rifle “No Time to Explain”, or perhaps even actively used it and had fun with it? Then feel free to share your experiences and tips about this weapon exotic in the comments.

What other content does it offer?
You can explore numerous locations in the city.
Just be careful not to get shot: The laws of the street apply.
Customize your character with cool hats and other outfits.
Players can also trade with each other.
Who is the game worth it for? Corleone Online is primarily worth it for PvP fans who enjoy 2D graphics or at least don’t mind them. Anyone who has seen the film “The Godfather” and finds the Mafia theme exciting should check out this MMORPG.
Anyone looking for a good time with strangers or friends and who enjoys playing in a team will find Corleone Online just right.
What do you think about Corleone Online? Are you interested in the game and want to try it out? Have you maybe even played it already? Or does the game’s graphics turn you off? Feel free to let us know in the comments here on MeinMMO!

A team has developed an artificial intelligence (AI) that can play Minecraft independently. However, the path to this achievement was long.
Artificial intelligence plays a significant role today. For instance, a large MMO company explained how AI could enhance the gaming experience. It is believed that artificial intelligence can master matchmaking better than any human.
However, AI is not only supposed to improve the game itself but also be able to play it autonomously. At least one company has set itself this task. At the end of this experiment, there is an AI that can actually play Minecraft effortlessly.
Company teaches artificial intelligence how to play Minecraft
Who is behind this? OpenAI is a company that focuses on researching artificial intelligence. Now, the company has set itself a unique task: It wanted to find out whether an artificial intelligence can play Minecraft (via openai.com)
What exactly was done? A special method was used, namely Video PreTraining (VPT). The AI learns its actions and procedures by observing videos. For this reason, the developers recorded key presses and mouse movements as well as actions in the inventory.
They chose Minecraft because it is one of the most played games and because there is a lot of video material available on YouTube and other sites that is freely accessible. In total, they used 70,000 hours of video material to train the AI. And it was quite successful.
The AI does not use a special version of Minecraft. Instead, it uses the normal version that is typically played with a mouse and keyboard.
You can watch the entire experiment and the activities of the AI in a video on Vimeo. We have embedded the video here for you:

What can the artificial intelligence do? The AI can easily do many things in Minecraft on its own:
Chop down trees and make planks
Build a crafting table
Swim
Hunt animals
Consume food
Place blocks beneath itself and jump higher on a pillar
The developers also explained that they could constantly improve the AI as more precise data became available. After all, the AI could create tools from wood and stone and build simple shelters. It explored villages, looted chests, and acted as any player would.
However, some experiments with AI are rather frightening. A group of researchers aimed to demonstrate that artificial intelligence can also be dangerous. The AI had designed thousands of chemical weapons in just a few hours:
The second beta of Overwatch 2 starts today, June 28. To encourage you to engage with the shooter actively on Twitch, Blizzard wants to reward your streaming consumption with an exclusive skin. The catch: You need to gift the most well-known streamers €15.
In the first beta, Blizzard’s shooter had a huge but very short-lived success on Twitch. For the second beta, which starts today at 8 PM, Blizzard wants to entice you to Overwatch 2 streams in other ways.
If you gift 3 subscriptions on Twitch in total, you will receive an exclusive skin for Brigitte. However, fans are upset about the selection of streamers.
You will only receive the skin if you throw your ‘Gifted Subs’ at big streamers like xQc, Asmongold, or DisguisedToast. The community believes that this gives even more money to the wealthiest influencers while leaving the smaller ones behind.
In this trailer, you can see what Overwatch 2 has to offer when it launches in Free2Play on October 4:

“Support a Streamer”: For €15 on Twitch, receive a Brigitte skin
Which skin are we talking about? Under the “Support a Streamer” initiative, you’ll receive the legendary skin “Medic Brigitte” for one of the strongest support heroes in the game.
To claim this, you must gift a total of 3 Twitch subs in the chats of a select list of streamers between June 29 and July 19. You’ll pay €5 per ‘Gifted Sub’, meaning the total cost for this skin is €15.

Which streamers do you need to support? This list of streamers you should gift your subs to is a kind of “who’s who” on Twitch. Not only are prominent Overwatch streamers included, but also other big names who have little to do with Blizzard’s team shooter.
Here’s a small selection:
Asmongold
xQc
DisguisedToast
Crayator
JackFrags
Fextralife
A_Seagull
ml7
Emongg
Noko
LuLuLovely
Thus, MMO giants like Asmongold and streamers from other shooters such as Apex Legends or Battlefield are listed, as well as the controversial RPG Wiki Fextralife. You can find the full list of streamers on the website of Blizzard.
“Let’s support streamers who really need it”
This is what Overwatch fans say: In the Overwatch community, fans are very disappointed with this initiative.
On reddit, people say things like “Better not, Blizzard” and list a series of reasons:
Normally, I’m quick to spend money on a new skin. But this is just a big no for me.
– Smaller streamers who could benefit from this cannot receive it
– Amazon/Twitch takes 50% of these expenditures anyway
– About €15 is more than you would pay for Overwatch League skins (which are worth €10)
– The skin is not of the quality one would expect from a Legendary skin
Another reddit user even says that the selected streamers are a bad influence:
The list of streamers leaves a really bitter aftertaste. Let’s at least support the creators who truly need it instead of the big streamers, many of whom are not even part of our community or have a negative influence.
Fans are therefore not pleased with the idea of giving even more money to the already largest and richest streamers on Twitch just to receive a skin in return. They hope Blizzard includes more smaller streamers who would deserve support from the community.
What does Blizzard say about the criticism? AndyB, the community manager of Blizzard, has responded to angry fans in the official forum. He replies to a user:
You are greatly overestimating what everyone except the most successful streamers actually earns.
If they do not wish to donate to one of the big names, we have many smaller, long-standing Overwatch streamers listed who would appreciate your support.
Furthermore, this is just the “first event” of this kind, for which Blizzard “intentionally selected only a limited number of participants”. The purpose is to: “Collect data and learn”. Thus, Blizzard wants to build on this model and “most likely expand the availability” if it is successful. (via Blizzard Forum)
What do you think of this initiative? Do you find it good or completely off? What’s your opinion on Blizzard’s response? Let us know in the comments.
Apart from generating a lot of traffic on Twitch, Blizzard also wants to monetize Overwatch 2 in different ways when it launches as a Free2Play shooter on October 4. You can learn more about their plans here:
With Season 4 of Call of Duty: Warzone, as usual, two new weapons were added to the game, including an LMG – the UGM-8. It turns out that this weapon brings extremely stable setups with no recoil. MeinMMO shows you the new super laser.
Update, July 6: The no-recoil setup has been nerfed. However, the attachment combination in this article still works excellently.
The new LMG UGM-8 in Call of Duty: Warzone is actually more of a weapon for enthusiasts in Call of Duty: Warzone. Many players tend to avoid the bulky and slow light machine guns.
But for the UGM-8, you should make an exception. Rarely has the term “laser” been so fitting as with this version of the LMG shortly after the season start.
The UGM has 0 recoil with the right attachments, has decent mobility compared to other LMGs, and only annoys a little during reloading.
What makes the UGM-8 strong? First and foremost is definitely the recoil behavior. The setup hits your targeted point exactly and sends five relentless bullets towards the enemy. Because of the barrel, the weapon becomes an automatic burst weapon.
You can, however, hold the trigger to fire. Unlike the M16 or AUG (both Cold War), you do not have to pull the trigger again after each burst.
In addition to having no recoil, you get strong damage and good mobility, which is not usually expected from an LMG.
If you want to see some laser gameplay, we’re embedding the English video from Warzone YouTuber “P4wnyhof”. He recommends the setup suggested here:

The UGM’s value mix is excellent for range kills. The only thing that might slow it down is the burst fire. This might not sit well with everyone and plays somewhat strangely, especially at medium and short ranges.
However, if you are always looking for weapons with easy playability, then you can’t overlook the UGM in Season 4 / 2022.
Today, there is a Spotlight Hour in Pokémon GO featuring an event Pikachu and a special Stardust bonus. We at MeinMMO will show you what kind of Pikachu it is and when the short event starts.
What is the Spotlight Hour? In Pokémon GO, a Spotlight Hour occurs every Tuesday. During this special short event, a specific Pokémon is highlighted, which can then be found nearly everywhere in the wild.
This week, the Electric-type Pokémon Pikachu is in the spotlight. Unlike usual, it is wearing a special hat themed for the crossover event with the trading card game. The event is enhanced by a Stardust bonus.
Spotlight Hour with Pikachu – Start, Bonuses, and Shiny
When does it start? The Spotlight Hour takes place today, on June 28, 2022, and starts as always at 6:00 PM local time. At 7:00 PM, the event will end, and the Pikachu spawns will disappear again.
What bonuses are there? During the Spotlight Hour, wild Pikachu with event hats will spawn almost everywhere in the game. If you want to catch even more of them, you can also use incense. Additionally, you will receive double Stardust for catching the Pokémon.
Are there Shiny Pikachu? Yes, with a bit of luck, you might encounter a shiny version. You can recognize it by its slightly darker shade of yellow.
Pikachu with event hat normal (left) and as Shiny (right)
Is the Spotlight Hour with Pikachu worth it?
How strong is it? Pikachu is an Electric-type Pokémon from the 1st generation, which can evolve into Raichu. However, the little mouse is not particularly strong, and Raichu does not play a role in the GO Battle League, nor is it one of the best attackers in Pokémon GO.
Since today’s Pikachu is a special event Pikachu, it cannot evolve into Raichu anyway.
Who should participate in the event? The event is mainly worth it for the bonus. If you want to stock up on Stardust, today is the perfect opportunity. It’s best to also use a star piece, as you will get 50% more Stardust for 30 minutes.
Otherwise, this event especially caters to Shiny hunters. Since Pikachu only appears with this hat during the current event and it is not yet known if and when this Pokémon will be available again in this disguised form, it is worth keeping an eye out for a shiny version.
If you have no use for the Electric-type Pokémon today, but want to take advantage of the Stardust bonus, you can alternatively use the mystery box. With a bit of luck, you might even encounter a shiny Meltan.
What do you think about the Spotlight Hour today? Will you participate? Or would you rather skip it? Feel free to share your opinion here on MeinMMO in the comments.
