Twitch streamer xQc fears for his former Overwatch coach: 29-year-old missing and everyone is concerned

Marie Friske Marie Friske Reading time 3 minutes

The former Overwatch coach and content creator Justin “Jayne” Conroy was reported missing by the Canadian police. The community was concerned about the 29-year-old. Twitch streamer xQc also spoke out on his Twitter channel calling for help in the search. Now everyone can breathe a sigh of relief: Jayne has been found.

Update June 24, 6:40 PM: According to a local newspaper, Justin Conroy has been found. Further details are not yet known. It is only said that he is safe (via ctvnews).

Who is Jayne? Jayne made a name for himself as an Overwatch coach for professional esports teams. He was particularly known in the community for his detailed game analyses.

In addition, Jayne was active as a streamer and content creator on YouTube. His videos, where he taught players how to improve in Overwatch, were popular.

However, he had been increasingly withdrawing from the esports scene and streaming recently. Nonetheless, he remained a well-known and popular gamer within the Overwatch community.

Who is xQc? xQc started in 2016 as a professional player in Overwatch. He now streams various games such as CS:GO or DayZ on his Twitch channel. He has 10.9 million followers and is one of the top earners on Twitch.

How do Jayne and xQc know each other? In 2018, xQc played for the Canadian national team. Jayne was the head coach of the team at that time and celebrated what is probably the greatest success of his esports career. The team finished third in the Overwatch World Cup 2018.

Canadian police called for assistance

The Canadian police in Airdrie reported the former content creator missing two days ago and called on their social media channels for the public to keep an eye out for the man and to pass any information to them. 

When was Jayne last seen? On Monday, June 20, the former content creator was seen leaving his home in Airdrie, Alberta (via canadapolicereport.ca). Since then, there has been no trace of Jayne.

What does xQc say about the missing person case? xQc is concerned. In a Twitter post, he retweeted the police’s missing person report and asked for help from people to find Jayne.

He refers to the coach as “my Boy,” as his buddy. xQc also says he hopes his former coach is doing well.

https://twitter.com/xQc/status/1540113842985910273?cxt=HHwWgoCyzavYyt8qAAAA
xQc calls for public assistance

How is the Overwatch community reacting? xQc is not the only one publicly reacting to the missing person report for Jayne. Other creators and esports teams like Toronto Defiant also spread the news. 

Private individuals are also sharing the tweets and hoping that Jayne will be found as soon as possible.

Here more about xQc

The striking thing is: The Overwatch community continues to support Jayne with their engagement, even years after his exit from esports.

Especially since the community has been worried about the creator’s mental state for a long time. There have been ongoing discussions about whether Jayne suffers from bipolar disorder and has suffered losses in cryptocurrency and NFT investments. A significant weight loss of the man and some statements in his videos and on social media amplify the community’s concerns about him (via twitter).

We can only hope that spreading the missing person report will be successful and that Jayne will be found as soon as possible.

Public figures and streamers often face intense pressure to perform. Criticism of the self and hate messages can negatively impact mental health.

Important note: If dark thoughts plague you: You are not alone. Please seek help. For example, from the telephone counseling service at 0800/111 0 111 or the online counseling service, where you can also use a chat. This is free of charge and applies nationwide.

7 Upgrades for your gaming PC that you definitely should not buy

Benedikt Schlotmann Benedikt Schlotmann Reading time 5 minutes

You want to upgrade your gaming PC or build a PC? We present to you 7 upgrades you should not buy.

If you are considering upgrading your PC or building a new gaming PC, you have several considerations:

  • What do I want to do with it?
  • How fast should my gaming PC be?
  • How much money do I want to spend on upgrades or the PC?

Especially when it comes to money, many think about where they can save the most. MeinMMO introduces a handful of upgrades that you should not buy or that are not suitable for saving. Often, it is worth investing a few more euros.

Dual-Core Processors (CPUs with 2 cores)

For dual-core processors like the AMD Athlon 3000G, you may often pay only a fraction of the price of a new CPU, but you should still steer clear of such offers. The performance is significantly below modern 4-cores and many modern games no longer support the outdated 2-cores because command set extensions may be missing. In the worst-case scenario, the game won’t start, and you won’t be able to install such things via patch.

You can officially install Windows 11 on a 2-core processor, but the weak performance is hardly worth it. Already modern entry-level processors like Intel’s i3 CPUs or AMD’s Ryzen 3 CPUs offer you better performance than these dual-cores and are available for around 100 euros. Also, check the system requirements of Windows 11 if you want to buy a new processor.

Which processor should one buy? With a modern mid-range processor like the Intel i5-12400F or the AMD Ryzen 5 3600 (both around 160 euros), you can do absolutely nothing wrong compared to the 2-cores, as you get modern 6-cores here that also support the latest features.

Upgrading old hardware with old hardware

It is rarely worthwhile to replace old processors with similarly outdated models. You cannot use the old DDR3 RAM on modern motherboards today. It is never worth buying a ten-year-old top CPU, as modern processors simply offer better performance and higher efficiency or come with features like command set extensions.

With the AMD FX 8350, you currently get about an 8-core for less than 80 euros. However, it only works on old motherboards with AM3+ chipset along with DDR3 memory. If you later want to switch to a Ryzen 5000, you will again need to buy a new motherboard (AM4) and DDR4 memory. Therefore, it’s better to invest directly in a modern CPU with a current chipset.

Older motherboards also lack many modern features that you cannot upgrade, such as PCIe 4.0. Technically, you are moving into a dead end, from which there is no exit – unless you rely on modern hardware.

If you want to upgrade an ancient system, it’s always worth investing in new hardware rather than buying outdated hardware again. Alternatively, you can buy a new system and install the old system drive into the new PC.

CPU SocketCompatible Motherboards (Chipset)
Intel LGA 1700 Socket600 Series: Z690
Intel LGA 1200 Socket400 (Comet Lake) and 500 Series (Rocket Lake):
H410 (H510), B460 (B560), H470 (H570), Q470 (Q570), Z490 (Z590), W480 (W580)
AM5 (AMD Ryzen 7000 series)*X670 Extreme, X670, B650
AM4 (AMD Ryzen 1000-5000 series)A320 (A420), B450 (B550), X470(X570)
Current motherboards and processors (as of June 2022); * Ryzen 7000 and AM5 will be officially released at the end of 2022.

Single-Channel Memory

When building a PC or upgrading, you always have the option of choosing between a single memory stick or a combination of two sticks.

Since pretty much every modern processor now has a dual-channel memory controller, we always recommend going for two sticks. Otherwise, the memory speed is effectively halved. This may not always limit your system, but it can certainly be a factor.

In contrast to single-channel mode, where the data bus is 64 bits wide (64 data lines), in dual-channel mode, two modules are operated simultaneously with a 64-bit data bus each. This means significantly better performance, which can also be demonstrated in benchmarks.

The current recommendation or minimum for a gaming system is 2 memory sticks in dual-channel mode with a total of 16 GB. If you want to plan for the future, you should rather buy 32 GB if you find a good offer.

Poorly equipped motherboards

In principle, it sounds tempting to buy a motherboard for little money. However, you should think twice about whether you really want to invest more because a very cheap motherboard can quickly limit you:

  • Cheap motherboards often only offer two RAM slots. If you want to install more, you need a new motherboard.
  • If the motherboard lacks heatsinks on important components (such as voltage regulators), the heat load is significantly greater. This limits you in your choice of CPU.
  • Cheap motherboards almost never have PCIe 4.0, and an M.2 slot may also be missing in rare cases.

Therefore, it’s better to buy a good motherboard with a decent feature set and enough space for future upgrades right away. Otherwise, investment possibilities look rather bleak, or you will have to change the motherboard during your next upgrade. And if you want to change the motherboard, you have to disassemble all components from the PC, which can be time-consuming.

Cases that will drive you insane

If you want to save money, you often skimp on the case. An idea that can quickly backfire. The seemingly cheap cases have several disadvantages that you should not underestimate:

  • Cheap cases have very thin metal. You can noticeably hear all the sounds from the case from the processor, hard drives, and more.
  • Dust filters are rare or nonexistent, which protect your hardware from dirt.
  • The manufacturing is often so cheap that things can quickly bend during installation, which can be very frustrating.
  • A lack of cable management steals you the last fun during installation.
  • The covers of the expansion slots often have to be broken out rather than unscrewed. Therefore, you cannot reinstall the covers.
  • Some very cheap models also lack front USB-3 ports.

Therefore, the recommendation: Take your time when choosing a case and spend a few more euros. Look for good cable management, plenty of space, and options for additional fans or dust filters. Otherwise, you will regret it at the latest during installation over too little space, the poor construction, or bloody fingers.

Therefore, you should not overlook the case when building a PC

Cheap power supplies that promise a lot of power

Spending less than 30 euros on a power supply may sound like a bargain at first. But you should be careful. Some cheap manufacturers like to cheat here and advertise peak values that the power supply would never normally reach. The manufacturer promises you 450 watts, but under load, it only achieves a maximum of 300 watts.

The promised peak performance is not continuous power, but a possible maximum performance that is rarely achieved. If you buy a cheap power supply with a maximum output of 650 watts, you should expect that it may only achieve a continuous power of 450 watts.

With a cheap no-name power supply, there is also the risk that the protective mechanisms are implemented poorly. In most cases, savings are made on protective circuits, and only an internal fuse, for example, a melting fuse, is installed.

Moreover, poor efficiency and an uneven distribution of power over the cables should be considered.

Additionally, you should note: If the power supply explodes because you bought the cheapest model, there is a possibility that other components like the graphics card or processor may also be damaged.

Tips you should know before assembling a PC

Buying the wrong graphics card

You can spend hundreds of euros on a graphics card. It is often the most expensive component in the computer. However, there are also some cheaper alternatives. However, the cheapest graphics card is not necessarily the best option for a budget system.

For example: You currently pay less than 200 euros for AMD’s Radeon RX 6500 XT. However, the graphics card only offers four PCIe lanes instead of eight. This means that your maximum performance is limited. Especially the 4 GB of video memory is no longer up-to-date.

For instance, Computerbase writes in its conclusion about the RX 6500 XT that the limited memory and scarce lanes cause strong performance loss (via computerbase.de). Additionally, the graphics card lacks functions such as H.264 and H.265 encoding or AV1 decoding. Tasks that your CPU then has to take over.

However, if you invest 100 euros more, you can already get a GeForce RTX 3050 or even a Radeon RX 6600. These offer all the important features compared to the RX 6500 XT and don’t have a restricted memory bandwidth.

Additionally, always consider what you really want to do with your computer. If you only play retro-style games or occasionally play strategy games that are already several years old, then you don’t need an RTX 3090 Ti that costs you 2000 euros.

What you should definitely know about the next generation of graphics cards before you buy a new one

Dead by Daylight brings the best changes in 7 years, buffs all killers, ends the grind

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 4 minutes

Dead by Daylight is planning the biggest changes in 7 years. The game is being turned on its head and the grind is being removed.

When it comes to big changes, Dead by Daylight has been quite reserved – at least until now. The developers have revealed significant changes in the “Developer Update” for June, which are likely to drastically alter the asymmetrical horror game.

The best part: Perks will be much easier to unlock. The exponential blood point grind is a thing of the past.

Dead by Daylight ends the grind – Here’s how you’ll soon unlock Perks

Until now, unlocking Perks across multiple characters has been really exhausting. You first need to level up the character that has the corresponding Perks to unlock the “teachable” version, before that Perk can appear in the blood web of other characters – which also need to be unlocked.

This means that as the number of characters and Perks increases, the effort grows exponentially. The developers calculated that you would currently need to play more than 4 hours a day if you want to unlock all Perks on all characters before the launch of the next chapter.

Therefore, the system is being fundamentally reworked.

In the future, unlocking Perks will be directly tied to the prestige system. When you complete 50 blood webs with a character, you will have the opportunity to increase that character’s prestige rank. Just as it has been so far. If you participate, you will unlock that character’s Perks to rank 1 for all other characters – they can access them directly.

If you prestige a character 2 more times – to prestige 2 and prestige 3 – you will also unlock the Perk ranks to rank 2 and rank 3 for immediate use with all other characters.

If you leave a character at prestige 1, other characters can still find the ranks 2 and 3 of the Perks – as before in the blood web, very individually.

Dead by Daylight Dredge Close up

Also important: Increasing the prestige level no longer removes items, offerings, and other rewards from the inventory. You can therefore increase the prestige level without loss. There is no more “punishment”!

The result is that the grind is reduced by nearly 75% and no longer grows exponentially with each new chapter.

Or, to put it briefly:

  • In the future, the prestige ranks of a character will unlock their Perks for all others
  • Increasing the prestige rank no longer takes items away from you, you keep everything
  • The grind is reduced by a solid 75%

All Killers will get better …

In recent months, Killers have been too weak – this has been revealed by the developers’ internal evaluations. The kill rate is lower than expected, so there will be a series of changes to fundamentally support Killer players. The detailed changes are:

  • Destroying walls and pallets now happens 10% faster (previously 2.6 seconds, now 2.34 seconds)
  • Generators can be kicked 10% faster (formerly 2 seconds, now 1.8 seconds) and immediately lose 2.5% progress.
  • Successful melee attacks have a reduced cooldown (instead of 3 seconds, only 2.7 seconds) and the speed boost for the hit survivor lasts shorter (no longer 2 seconds but only 1.8 seconds).
  • Bloodlust activates significantly faster. The first stage still starts after 15 seconds of chasing, but stage 2 at 25 seconds (previously 30) and stage 3 already after 35 seconds (previously 45).
  • Finally, the repair time for generators is increased. A generator will now take 90 seconds instead of 80 seconds to be fully repaired.

… all Survivors too!

Fortunately, there are also a number of changes on the Survivor side to make daily life more pleasant. It’s primarily about making it harder for Killers to camp and making freshly rescued Survivors an unattractive target.

Therefore, Survivors who have been freed from hooks will always receive the “Endurance” effect for 5 seconds – they can take one hit without immediately going down. For the same duration, they also get a speed boost of 7% to build a little more distance.

This effect ends prematurely if the Survivor takes an action that does not directly serve to escape the situation – for example, healing, repairing a generator, touching a totem, or opening the gate.

More about Dead by Daylight can be found here:

What else is changing?

A whole lot. Almost 40 Perks are being reworked in Dead by Daylight, particularly targeting the meta Perks. For too long, Perks like “Dead Hard”, “Hex: No One Escapes Death” or “Barbecue & Chili” have dominated the game. Almost all of the most popular Perks will be weakened or restricted in their functions, while other Perks receive significant improvements. The full adjustments are very extensive and can be reviewed in detail in our sources – but they are still subject to change in the coming months.

Additionally, there will be more incentives, like extra blood points when signing up for the side that currently has fewer players.

Is it worth playing CoD Warzone in 2022? The 5 best changes of the last few months

Maik Schneider Maik Schneider Reading time 6 minutes

The free battle royale Call of Duty: Warzone has had its tough times. Cheaters, bugs, OP weapons, unpopular content – almost every misstep was ready for a dive. But since the launch of Season 2 in February 2022, the tide has turned – and it might be worth your while to jump in or return.

Warzone is a stand-alone “battle royale” from Call of Duty that gives you free access to the outstanding shooter gameplay of the series. Especially at its release in 2020, the title exploded in popularity and was on everyone’s lips. But then came the lull.

Little content, hardly any new additions, a broken weapon meta, plague of cheaters – Warzone annoyed many players, who then frustratedly left the shooter. The developers also explained what mistake lay behind all the problems.

However, after the changes in recent months, the battle royale has changed significantly. Almost every aspect of the game has been tweaked, every small mechanic has been scrutinized.

If you haven’t heard about this as a veteran or are a fresh newcomer, then we want to show you some of the best changes from the last few months and explain how they have positively impacted Warzone.

If you want a brief introduction to the game first, check out our video:

Everything you need to know about the battle royale shooter CoD Warzone

Increased health points

What was this change? After the introduction of the map Caldera, there was “Vanguard Royale” in Warzone. Here, you were only allowed to use weapons from Vanguard, and there were additional rules and content that were only available here.

The developers used this mode as a test lab and introduced more health points – 50, to be exact. Together with the armor, total health energy went up to 300.

Currently, the change applies to all modes on all maps.

Why is this so good? The adjustment of health points brought fresh wind into the weapon meta. The time-to-kill values changed, and the maps got mixed up.

More importantly, it has positively changed the gameplay feel in battles. You are not downed as quickly anymore, and you can often make it behind cover for rescue.

This has made the battles more exciting. Good movement and smart cover play benefit. But the adjustment was not so significant that better players could gain a huge advantage from it.

A simple and very effective adjustment that made Warzone better right away.

Renovation of Caldera, new map and map rotation

What was this change? The large map Caldera has faced much criticism from day one. The mood quickly shifted from “finally a new map” to “give us Verdansk back”.

With the start of Season 4, the developers listened to the feedback. There are many new small locations filling previously empty areas. Included is even the Verdansk favorite “Storage Town”. Additionally, the vegetation has been reduced by 50% in many places, and visibility of opponents improved.

The popular little map Rebirth Island has emerged as a fan favorite due to the age of Verdansk and skepticism towards Caldera. Mid-Season 2 also brought many changes here at the end of March that were positively received by players.

Furthermore, thanks to map rotation, Warzone now features three maps for the first time. Similar in size to Rebirth Island, you now hunt through the alleys of Fortune’s Keep on your way to victory.

Why is this so good? Just through the new map rotation with the third map, Warzone offers significantly more content and variety. The small maps are expected to rotate daily soon.

Additionally, the continued work on the old maps based on player feedback has paid off. With almost every update, new locations are added and unpopular aspects are patched out.

In recent months, Warzone has certainly shown itself to be more player-friendly. The developers still do not respond to certain topics, such as matchmaking. But aside from that, they listen much more to feedback and explain how they incorporate it into the development process.

This is very good for the battle royale.

Lootable perks

What was this change? Previously, you could only bring perks into the game through your loadouts. Now, the strong passive bonuses are also found as ground loot.

Included are even really strong bonuses that many players like to grab:

  • Combat Scout
  • Overkill
  • Ghost
  • Cold-Blooded

Why is this so good? A developer referred to the lootable perks shortly after their introduction as a game-changer. And indeed, the random perks you can find bring a new dynamic to the game.

With the acquired bonuses in mind, new tactics can be tried out. Furthermore, it is more worthwhile to create different loadouts so you don’t have strong perks duplicated.

This gameplay trick is as simple as it is brilliant. It brings a new level, more depth to the game, and utilizes exactly the things that were already present in the game.

More time in matches than on the bench

What was this change? The developers explained their strategy behind the changes of the last months and in the future in the patch notes from Mid-Season 3:

  • More counters – Mechanics should feature corresponding counter gameplay
  • More movement – You should progress faster and movement techniques are being expanded
  • More gameplay time – The time you spend watching in a match should be reduced

Particularly the point “More gameplay time” is exciting. The developers want to ensure that you return to the game faster after dying. This brings more dynamics and ensures that more is happening on the maps.

The measures:

  • Gulag Token introduced
    • If you collect this item after you’ve already been in the Gulag, you can go back into the revival duel
  • Re-entry Token
    • If you have this item, you come back directly after being killed
  • Revive cheaper
    • You only need 3,000 cash to buy back team members

Why is this so good? Battle royales are a fantastic experience in teams. But unfortunately, teammates are stuck watching when they get shot down.

Warzone wants to actively combat “time on the bench” and ensure that all players participate more in the match. Another strong change that fits the foundation of Warzone. Of the most popular and largest battle royales, Warzone is indeed the “easiest”.

More relaxed weapon meta for more variety

What was this change? This is not just one or a few changes, but a general strategic shift. And this has been hinted at for a while.

In the first roughly 1.5 years of Warzone, changes to weapons were often arbitrary and hard to understand. Nowadays, there are many explanations for the adjustments and clear reactions to the weapons that are indeed too strong or too weak.

Here and there, you can still identify adjustments that come from a new real-money bundle in the game. A current example is the MAC-10. It was surprisingly buffed with Season 4, followed by an elaborate skin bundle in the shop.

However, the majority of weapon adjustments happen in the interest of a fair weapon meta.

Do you want to know how fair the meta of CoD Warzone currently is? We show you the formula
von Maik Schneider

Why is this so good? You generally have to worry less about which weapons are currently “OP”. Many guns are on the same level; the advantages of a certain weapon are not so significant that they overshadow all others.

Initially, in Warzone, OP weapons came and went frequently. As soon as one was nerfed, players discovered the next, and it sometimes took months for a nerf to occur.

Nowadays, overpowered weapons are nerfed within a week at most. If a weapon is played too much, you can usually expect a nerf in the next season or mid-season update.

Overall, Warzone has thus become much fairer, and it has been exciting to observe how Warzone has developed in this regard.

Bonus: RICOCHET ramps up

Cheaters are unfortunately part of a free-to-play game, but with the anti-cheat system, Warzone has done a lot right.

The system still heavily relies on your player reports. So if you spot a cheater, immediately use the reporting function.

Blue line: Cheater punished / Red line: Cheaters reported

Overall, the problem has noticeably decreased, and you encounter unwanted cheaters much less often. The real practical test for RICOCHET is still to come – with the release of Warzone 2 and the possible hype with many new players and also cheaters:

Personal conclusion: Warzone has (almost) never been this good

Conclusion – MeinMMO author Maik Schneider: I have been playing Warzone since day one. And as is often the case, the feeling from the first 100 hours of gameplay can’t just be brought back. Everything was new, fresh, and exciting back then.

However, Warzone did not deliver back then, brought little content, and made strange changes. Add in the annoying cheaters. But that’s no comparison to today.

I have been playing Warzone more regularly for a few weeks now and am really glad about the changes. Through my work at MeinMMO, I have meticulously followed all of this, tested from time to time, and now my desire, my enthusiasm for Warzone has returned.

If you are looking for a battle royale or have turned away in frustration a while ago, then now is the time to jump into Warzone.

Because even if I sometimes look enviously at Fortnite, Warzone remains the best battle royale on the market and is particularly well-suited for newcomers.

Pokémon GO: You should definitely choose the right buddy during the Community Day with Kapuno

Franzi Korittke Franzi Korittke Reading time 3 minutes

On June 25, 2022, the Community Day with Kapuno will take place in Pokémon GO. However, you should definitely take a very specific monster as your buddy. We at MeinMMO will show you which Pokémon it is and why it can be worthwhile for you.

What kind of event is it? On Saturday, June 25, 2022, the Community Day in Pokémon GO with Kapuno will take place in June. During this event, you can encounter the Dark and Dragon Pokémon Kapuno everywhere in the wild.

However, it can be worth it if you not only focus on your Kapuno during the event but also on a special buddy Pokémon. We will explain why to you.

Use Pam-Pam as your buddy for the Community Day with Kapuno

Many trainers use the monthly Community Days to explore their surroundings and take their buddy Pokémon along for the journey. However, for the C-Day with Kapuno, you should not choose this buddy lightly. It is advisable to rely on Pam-Pam.

Why should you use Pam-Pam? Pam-Pam is a Fighting-type Pokémon from the 6th generation of games. You can mainly find it in 12 km eggs and occasionally in raids. The little panda can also be evolved into Pandagro.

Pam-Pam and Pandagro

And this is where your buddy Pokémon comes into play. To evolve Pam-Pam, you need 50 candies, but you also have to catch 32 Dark-type Pokémon together with your Fighting Pokémon. You do this by taking Pam-Pam as your buddy.

To quickly catch the Dark-type Pokémon and thus evolve Pam-Pam, the C-Day with Kapuno is an excellent opportunity. Kapuno is a monster of the Dark and Dragon types. Since it spawns at every corner during the event, you will quickly reach the 32 required specimens.

Is Pandagro worth it? The monster is not particularly strong, as it only scores with a good stamina value. Its attack and defense are rather average. Therefore, it plays a minor role in PvP battles according to PvPoke and in raids, you should rather rely on the 10 best Fighting attackers. Thus, Pandagro is mainly worth it for registration in the PokéDex.

What else should you consider for the C-Day with Kapuno?

In addition to the buddy Pokémon, it is also worthwhile to focus on an appropriate Mega Evolution. If this is active during catching, you will receive an additional candy if the captured monster belongs to the same type.

Additionally, you will receive an attack bonus in battles if you use monsters with attacks of the same type. This could be particularly interesting for you after the Community Day with Kapuno, as Pokémon GO is bringing back Level 4 Raids, but with a restriction.

So you can only face Duodino, the first evolution of Kapuno, on-site. This one is particularly weak against Fairy attacks, as well as against Fighting, Ice, Bug, and Dragon attacks. It is definitely worth having the right counters ready.

More about Pokémon GO:

Which Mega Evolution should you focus on? If you want to use the Mega Evolution after the Community Day with Kapuno against Duodino, especially Mega Altaria is worthwhile. This one belongs to the Pokémon of the Dragon and Fairy types.

If you don’t have this monster, you can alternatively use other Mega Dragons like Mega Ampharos, Mega Latias, or Mega Latios. For those who are not interested in the raids, you can also receive the additional candy when catching if Mega Charizard X, Mega Gyarados, Mega Houndoom, or Mega Absol are active.

CoD Warzone: With the latest OP attachment, you run so fast that you should be spotted in the downtown area

Marko Jevtic Marko Jevtic Reading time 2 minutes

A new patch in CoD: Warzone often also means that something new is a bit OP. This is also true in Season 4. Because if you equip the grip of your weapon with some tape, you run faster than the law allows. At least in most German city centers.

Update, June 28: The speed grip has been nerfed and no longer gives you the exaggerated movement speed.

The fastest loadout you could put together in CoD Warzone was back in October 2021. Then you were allowed to run faster than the train with an OTs 9.

With the latest patch for Season 4, it is even faster. Together with well-executed slide-cancels, you can reach an impressive speed of 36 kilometers per hour – and that on foot. This would be enough to trigger a speed camera in a German city.

In the trailer, you can see among other things the picturesque downtown of the new map of Warzone, Fortune’s Keep.:

36 km/h on foot thanks to Taped Grip

Which attachment is it? Warzone experts like JGOD and TrueGameData have discovered that an attachment in CoD Warzone is currently much better than the developers probably intended: the Taped Grip.

This attachment alone allows you to easily surpass the previous “movement loadouts” with all SMGs from CoD Vanguard. JGOD shows in his English video what this looks like:

Link to the YouTube content

As JGOD has also calculated in his video, this allows you to achieve a maximum of 36 km/h. Normally, your top speed on foot is about 23.5 km/h, so this is an improvement of over 53%.

How do I run so fast? You really don’t have to pay attention to anything. As long as you use a Vanguard SMG with the taped grip, this impressive top speed is achievable. Even lootable weapons that use this attachment are just as fast. That’s why TrueGameData calls this attachment the “Most OP Attachment Ever!” (via YouTube)

For this to truly work at maximum speed, you need to master the slide cancels. Here we explain how this advanced movement technique works:

More on the topic
CoD Warzone: How does the Slide-Cancel work and why should everyone master it?
von Maik Schneider

Warzone expert recommends additional attachments for maximum speed

How to create the strong sprint setup: In the video linked above, JGOD also recommends up to two additional attachments. You can use these in addition to the strong taped grip:

  • Underbarrel: Mark VI Skeleton
  • Perk: Momentum
  • Extra: Quick

With these attachments, you’ll get the absolute maximum out. With Momentum, you will move faster for a short time after a kill, and with Quick, your sprint speed generally increases. But for SMGs, you should always use Mark VI Skeleton and Taped Grip. This way, you’ll become the absolute top sprinter on maps like Fortune’s Keep.

Depending on how well you can handle the recoil of your weapon, you can also choose additional attachments for your preferred weapon that increase your speed. However, JGOD also says that you shouldn’t always take these. If you have a weapon with high recoil, you should rather choose attachments that reduce it.

Pokémon GO will finally tackle the biggest nuisance in the game – explains measures against Spoofers

Franzi Korittke Franzi Korittke Reading time 4 minutes

A thing that often leads to conflicts among trainers in Pokémon GO are spoofers. Now, Niantic wants to take stronger action against these players. We from MeinMMO show you what this is all about and what the community says about it.

What kind of players are we talking about? In Pokémon GO, there has been a significant problem with so-called spoofers for years. These are trainers who cheat in the game and use rooted devices and corresponding software to manipulate the game, allowing them to position themselves anywhere in the world without actually being there.

They often don’t just go about their business in the game; instead, they annoy other trainers by constantly emptying the gyms and preventing them from earning coins. For this reason, honest players of Pokémon GO have long been demanding that something be done about this plague.

Now there is a small glimmer of hope that spoofers will have a harder time in the future. We show you what it’s all about.

Niantic plans stricter measures against spoofers

On June 23, Niantic announced via their Twitter account that there will now be new regulations to enforce their player guidelines and terms of use for all Niantic games. This was followed by a reference to their homepage, where more details are outlined.

Recommended editorial content

At this point you will find external content from Twitter that complements the article.

I consent to external content being displayed to me. Personal data can be transmitted to third party platforms. Read more about our privacy policy.
Link to the Twitter content

What do the guidelines state? According to the new guidelines, there will be stricter measures against players who cheat not only in Pokémon GO but also in other Niantic games. Niantic initially refers to the numerous reports they have received from frustrated trainers regarding the cheating behavior of other players.

Since the last update on this topic was more than a year ago, Niantic wants to explain what their next steps are and what they are working on. It can be read on their site:

In our last post, we primarily focused on providing an overview of the actions we have taken to penalize accounts that we have classified as fraudulent in several Niantic games. Since then, we have invested in better monitoring of cheating behavior and can now identify these activities more reliably, quickly, and accurately to prevent legitimate players from being unfairly punished.

As a result, we will be taking a more rigorous approach to this behavior in all our games and implementing our improved approach to combating cheating. We are now beginning to take action against a number of accounts that we have identified as violating our terms of use or player guidelines during recent in-game events in Pokémon GO.

This is just the first step in implementing our enhanced systems for detecting and enforcing cheating behavior. These improvements will be integrated into all Niantic games to consistently and continuously identify and punish players, rather than in waves as we have done in the past.

In the future, we will continue to improve our methods and processes to ensure that we are always one step ahead of any new behaviors that allow players to exploit the game rules unfairly.

via nianticlabs.com

Additionally, Niantic references their player guidelines on their homepage and what to keep in mind when using the games:

Please only use the official versions of our games available in the Google Play Store, Apple App Store, and Samsung Galaxy Store. Note that we do not support rooted or jailbroken devices or third-party apps. If you are unsure about what behaviors are acceptable in our games, please read our player guidelines.

via nianticlabs.com

What will change? Niantic has been working for some time with various consequences when players are caught spoofing. These range from a warning to a soft ban of a few days, up to a complete exclusion from the game.

In the past, they often implemented these in so-called ban waves. Numerous accounts were classified as cheaters by the system, resulting in various bans. However, this system was not entirely reliable.

Often, even players who did not cheat at all, like Spieltrend, the most well-known German YouTuber regarding Pokémon GO, were affected.

Now this procedure is said to have been revised and will continue to be adjusted. Thus, Niantic intends to implement an improved system that better detects cheaters and takes immediate action against them. For this reason, there should be no more ban waves.

The first consequences against spoofers in Pokémon GO are expected to follow soon. A player shows how bad spoofers can really be in the following article:

von Patrick Freese

Trainers are skeptical: “Please actually do something!”

On social networks, trainers are skeptical regarding the announcement that stricter measures against cheaters will be implemented. Many have been fighting for a long time for spoofers in their vicinity to finally be punished and have had little success so far.

Many hope that something will finally happen and that spoofers will be held accountable. On Twitter, the following comments can be read:

  • reladude: “You talk a lot, but the fact is, I’ve been reporting spoofers in my area for a year. I’ve even given you times, places, and accounts of the spoofers, and still, nothing has been done. Listen to the people who give you information so that legitimate players can enjoy the game.”
  • SwgTips: “I can imagine that a whole bunch of trainers who walk 200 km a day will take a break here.”
  • DanOttawaPOGO: “There have been a number of discussions on this topic when I reported a trainer who walked 230 km in a day. As long as Niantic doesn’t restrict cheating, people will cheat.”
  • MTemplar07: “Please actually do something!”
  • DalekYuna: “This is the ‘We pretend to do something every few months’ post. Spoofers put too much money into the game. That’s why you’ll never really take action against them, because they are a source of revenue. Otherwise, you’d go after the spoofing apps that alter your code.”

Whether Niantic will finally put an end to this problem in Pokémon GO and actually take stronger action against spoofers, or if it will just be hot air, remains to be seen.

What do you think about spoofing in Pokémon GO? Do you find it okay? Or are you hoping for tough consequences from Niantic soon? Feel free to share your opinion here on MeinMMO in the comments and exchange ideas with other trainers about it.

I have also dealt with this topic and don’t find spoofing as bad as everyone says. What I mean by that and why spoofers can even help honest players will be shown in the corresponding article.

Diablo Immortal: How to create a perfect spell and earn platinum in the process

Christos Tsogos Christos Tsogos Reading time 3 minutes

In Diablo Immortal there are spells that you can equip to strengthen your hero. We show you how to create a perfect spell while earning Platinum.

What are spells? Spells are an equipment item in Diablo Immortal that can be equipped in your inventory above your chest armor. They enhance your class’s abilities by a percentage and give you a bonus to their damage.

Spells can be equipped and refined only starting at level 56. Before that, you can only view them in your inventory if earned, and move them to your loot stash.

This is what spells look like – They include many random bonuses

In Diablo Immortal, it is not directly explained how to effectively obtain good spells, improve them, and even earn Platinum from them. Therefore, we will show you everything important that you need to know.

Everything important about spells: Locations and Upgrades

How do I obtain spells? You obtain spells by completing bounties, looting them, or purchasing from the Hilt merchant in Westmark.

You can buy three pieces weekly from him for 100 Hilt each. With some luck, there might be more available when spells appear in limited-time offers.

Note that the bonuses on the acquired or earned spells are always random.

To accumulate Hilt for your purchases, you need to either complete Codex challenges, do daily quests, or progress in the Battle Pass.

Diablo-Immortal-Zauber-Hilt-Händler
At the Hilt merchant under the “General” category, you can find the basic spells

How do I refine spells? After you have accumulated a few spells, you can go to a spell maker. The craftsman “Vas” in Westmark is suitable for this. Talk to him to enhance a spell.

It’s best to choose a spell that already has a bonus for your class.

You can only enhance spells and increase their level if you have enough Alchemical Powder available. You obtain Alchemical Powder by breaking down spells in your inventory.

Luck is also necessary here, as with each further enhancement of your spell, you receive random bonuses to your equipment piece. Thus, you cannot specifically align your spell to the bonuses you need for your class.

How do I create a perfect spell? To perfect your spell, you can craft Skill Stones or buy them for Platinum on the market.

You obtain these stones by extracting Rank-5 spells. The Skill Stones can only be applied to Rank-5 spells.

By extracting, the stone retains the bonuses of the spell and can be used to exchange an effect of your favorite spell. For this, you need to enrich the Rank-5 spell at the spell maker. Select your spell and then the Skill Stone that should be used.

Finally, you must choose which bonus on your spell should be exchanged. Here too, luck is required. The system itself decides which of the five bonuses of the Skill Stone will be transferred to the spell. The value of the bonus can range from 2% to 10%.

Once the procedure is completed, the Skill Stone will be destroyed. You can choose beforehand whether to swap the new attribute or keep the old one. However, the stone will definitely be destroyed.

In this way, you can specifically try to socket the bonuses on your equipment that you are after for your class.

Find more about Diablo Immortal here:

How can I earn Platinum from this? To earn good Platinum from this, you can sell Skill Stones on the market for Platinum. Stones that you don’t need can be valuable for other players for their classes.

So list them on the market, set a price, and wait for a buyer with plenty of Platinum to purchase your stone. Compare prices for Skill Stones on your server beforehand. The more skills of a specific class are combined in the spell, the more valuable the item is.

German Twitch streamer destroys the favorite game of gamers you can’t stand with his community

Alexander Leitsch Alexander Leitsch Reading time 4 minutes

The German Twitch streamer Trymacs has found a crazy strategy to dominate the mobile game Clash of Clans. He has reached ranks 1 and 2 worldwide with two clans and lets them fight each other. This generates town gold for him to maximize further clans. Soon, the entire leaderboard could consist only of his clans – with consequences for the entire game.

What is happening right now?

  • Trymacs is known for investing a lot of money in games like FIFA. For years, the streamer and YouTuber has shown mobile games on his channels, including Clash of Clans, one of the most successful games ever (via Sensortower).
  • In May, he reached a record with his clan. They were the first to completely develop a clan city. This secured them the number 1 spot on the leaderboard.
  • Since then, Trymacs has founded new clans with his community that they also wanted to push up by fighting against each other. Now, he owns ranks 1, 2, and 3 – with a significant lead over rank 4.
  • However, the method has implications for the whole game. Clash of Clans is already criticized for allowing players to buy currencies and other advantages with real money.
More on the topic
Clash of Clans: What should I improve first?
von Alexander Leitsch

A lot of currency for the Trymacs community and little chance for other clans

How exactly does the method work? Trymacs first completely developed one clan. This usually takes several years or costs around 550,000 euros. However, it went much faster with his community, although it is unclear how much real money was invested here.

A second clan was then created, into which Trymacs and his viewers also invested in-game currency town gold. This clan climbed to number 2 on the global leaderboard within a few weeks.

Now comes the trick:

  • Both clans build their defenses according to a specific scheme, so that one half cannot damage ground troops while the other half cannot damage air troops. If one deploys their troops cleverly, they can easily destroy the clan city – typically multiple players are needed per attack.
  • Moreover, only clans of roughly equal strength fight against each other. Currently, only Trymacs’ clans are fighting each other.
  • As a reward for the destruction, there is town gold and raid medals.
    • The town gold is reinvested into a new clan that can be pushed up the leaderboard.
    • The raid medals, in turn, are a personal currency that players can use to buy magical items such as potions, wall rings, boosters, or upgrades. Thus, players also benefit from the push of the clans.

The speed at which new clans can be raised is shown by Trymacs in this video:

Link to the YouTube content

What results from this? Trymacs dominates the leaderboard. As his clans fight each other, the maximum town gold is generated without much effort. This is reinvested to bring new clans to the top, which can then also earn maximum town gold.

Basically, Trymacs renders the leaderboard absurd because no one will catch up with his clans anymore.

We can now generate three million town gold with each clan every week. Without the community, without you. […]. We can max out another clan every few weeks, just with our clans. Once we have maxed the fourth, the fifth will follow faster. And once we have the fifth maxed, the sixth will go even faster. It gets to the point that we can max out a clan every weekend just with our existing clans.

But there are also good rewards for the players themselves. The number of raid medals depends on how well the clan performed on a raid weekend. Since victories are guaranteed, there are also maximum rewards. This, in turn, boosts the players in their own villages.

More about Trymacs and Twitch on MeinMMO:

“The developers have to do something about this”

What does Trymacs say about it? He can’t believe that this method works in his videos. He was completely surprised that his third clan reached rank 3 within three weeks.

He emphasizes that while no other clan is directly harmed, the leaderboard is meaningless. Additionally, he benefits from it in his village. He is currently maximizing the walls just with the help of the raid medals.

He sees the developers as responsible for taking action: “Supercell has to do something about this,” he said at the end of one of his videos (via YouTube). However, it currently doesn’t seem like Trymacs will stop maximizing further clans.

Twitch: Who were actually the first successful streamers?

Streamers have many followers: It is well known that Twitch streamers and YouTubers can influence games. For example, when Asmongold first played Final Fantasy XIV, he couldn’t escape from onlookers.

Also, influencers play an important role in trends and can create hype, but they can also harm games with their criticism or behavior.

Again and again, people contact Trymacs who feel threatened in their gaming enjoyment by the numerous clans on the leaderboard. They see Clash of Clans overall as being in danger.

What do you think about Trymacs and his action in Clash of Clans? Should YouTubers and streamers be able to dominate entire games and take away the fun of others?

However, Trymacs does not only invest time and money in Clash of Clans:

Twitch is experimenting with a big change: “Could change everything for small streamers”

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 2 minutes

The streaming service Twitch is currently experimenting with a change that allows viewers to watch one minute of streams without having to see annoying ads or load the stream on a new page. The streamer Kacey “Lowco” Shields says: This change could be really good for small streamers and streamers, a true “game changer.”

What kind of experiment is this? It is a feature that is not yet available to all users, but only to some. It is referred to as a “discoverability” test. Twitch is apparently testing whether users can better discover new channels in this way:

  • If you click on a directory, for example, “All current streams for the game Fall Guys,” you can watch each stream listed there directly through the collection page for about a minute
  • During this time, you can enlarge the window as if “you were watching the stream properly,” can activate the sound, and even read the chat
  • After about a minute, the preview ends, and the viewer faces the choice of continuing to watch the stream “in the channel” or moving on to the next one on the overview page

The platform Twitch keeps writing strange stories:

Start video
Twitch: This is the quirky story behind the most popular clip of all time

No ads during stream previews

What are the benefits? At the moment, it is annoying to “browse through channels” on Twitch and discover new ones. Because with every change to a new streamer, the channel must first be loaded, and then the viewer has to watch an ad that cannot be skipped.

As Twitch streamer Kacey “Lowco” Shields explains, there would be no ads during the new preview feature. She says:

While I was testing this, I did not see any preroll ads. If that remains and you can really check out a stream without clicking on it and having to load a new page, and without ads, it could be huge for streamers.

Lowco says: Everyone knows how frustrating it is to search for a new streamer to watch on Twitch – if the new update comes as planned, that could change.

She sees it as a very good thing, especially for small streamers.

Twitch confirms: There will be no ads in this preview view.

Twitch seems to want to make scrolling through channels more pleasant

What’s behind this: Twitch is a “top-heavy” system: Viewers have their favorite streamers they always watch, and because those are the biggest, they also appear at the top of the rankings and are the first ones to catch the eye:

With the change, Twitch ultimately wants to make “scrolling” and “browsing” on Twitch more attractive by eliminating many hurdles at least for a minute that currently appear whenever one wants to enter a new channel.

Twitch has now confirmed: It is planned that there will be no ads in the preview. Not even if the feature becomes standard.

Whether and when the new preview feature will become standard on Twitch is currently not known.

Creators of Lost Ark test new PvE MMORPG with open class system – Should also come to us

Anny Anny Reading time 2 minutes

Smilegate is currently working with the indie developer Teeny Studio on a new MMORPG. It is called TeeTiny Online – Tower of Despair and is now entering a closed beta that runs until July 7, 2022. You can play the MMORPG on PC or mobile.

What kind of game is this? The MMORPG focuses on PvE and allows you to climb two different towers. Initially, you will be in the Goddess Tower, then at higher levels in the more difficult Tower of Trials.

TeeTiny Online features an open class system, similar to Final Fantasy XIV. Depending on which weapon you have equipped, your class changes and you can adapt your combat strategy.

Additionally, the game offers:

  • A guardian spirit that serves as your companion and supports you in battle.
  • Housing, even with a garden
  • Boss battles that scale with your group

TeeTiny Online Trailer

“We are not creating anything on a blockbuster scale”

The Korean development team emphasizes the importance of connecting players around the world. Therefore, there are no regional servers by continents, but a global one. To overcome language barriers, the chat is automatically translated.

The development team states: Their mission is for users worldwide to play together and not be separated from each other.

The developers at Teeny Studio seem less focused on creating the next MMORPG hit. On their website, they write: “We are not creating anything on a blockbuster scale. We are developing a unique concept for a relaxed global RPG.”

When will the game be available for us? Due to the concept, the closed beta is also available in the West. Via Stove, you can sign up for it. Alternatively, the game is available for download on Google Play in the mobile version.

Who should download it? For fans of colorful graphics looking for a not too complex MMORPG, TeeTiny is definitely worth it. Moreover, the automatic chat translation is certainly exciting, but you should be patient with communication and expect that things will be translated incorrectly and very humorously.

4 years after release and 2 years after the last update, the game is now getting a major, free expansion in the form of the “Advanced Edition” on July 19. But that’s not all: Into The Breach is also coming to iOS and Android. And for those with a Netflix subscription, it is even completely free.

Into The Breach is probably the best game on Netflix Games so far

What kind of game is this?

  • Into The Breach is a turn-based strategy game where you aim to stop an alien invasion with mechs.
  • The game features roguelite elements: a complete run is short, and if you die, you have to start over. With multiple possible teams and random upgrades and enemy configurations, the game offers high replay value.
  • Since you know each move of your opponents in advance and many steps trigger a domino effect, the game reminds you of a mix of chess and puzzle games.

This combination of replayability, brevity, and clever gameplay makes it perfect for mobile. Thanks to Netflix Games, this will soon be possible. In doing so, Netflix secures what has so far been the most popular and well-known title for its new gaming service.

How do I play the game through Netflix Games? Once the game is available on Netflix Games on July 19, you need to download it via the Netflix app on your smartphone. Here’s how it works:

  • You need to install the Netflix app on a compatible device and log in with your active Netflix subscription.
  • Then, in the Netflix app, navigate to the “Games” section on the left side.
  • In the “Games” section, click on Into The Breach and you can download it using the “Download Game” button.
    • On Android devices, the “Google Play” store will open with the game’s store page. This way, you can then install the game on your device.
    • On iOS devices, it works similarly, with the difference that the App Store opens and you must click on “Get” or the cloud icon.

Gaming subscriptions are a big new trend thanks to Xbox, PS Plus, and Netflix

Interestingly, Netflix is following a subscription trend in gaming after having significantly popularized movie subscriptions itself. After the massive success of Xbox Game Pass, PlayStation has completely revamped its offering and switched to a “Game Pass”-like model with the new PS Plus.

You can find out how this looks in this succinct 2-minute video:

After Apple with its subscription service “Apple Arcade”, Netflix now also wants to entice smartphone users with a gaming offer.

What speaks for Netflix, however, is that it is part of its film streaming service. Compared to Xbox, PlayStation, or Apple, you do not need to subscribe separately just for gaming – those who already watch movies through Netflix can now also enjoy the games they provide.

Do you already know Into The Breach? If yes, are you looking forward to the mobile port? Have you already used Netflix’s offering? What do you think of the subscription trend in games? Let us know in the comments.

FIFA 22: Shapeshifters Team 2 is live – Brings crazy cards for Ronaldo & Ramos

Julian Schröder Julian Schröder Reading time 2 minutes

In FIFA 22 the Shapeshifters event continues in Ultimate Team. Today, June 24, Team 2 has been released and we will show you what new top cards are available.

When is the Shapeshifters Team 2 coming? As of today, June 24 at 19:00, the new Shapeshifters cards from Team 2 are available in FUT 22.

What kind of event is this? The Shapeshifters event brings new special cards to Ultimate Team, which stand out primarily due to crazy position changes. For example, last week saw a crazy striker card for Alphonso Davies, who normally plays as a left back.

In addition, the cards receive massively boosted stats so that they can fit into the current top teams of FUT players.

This is how you get the new special cards: Primarily, the new Shapeshifters cards from Team 2 will be found in the packs of FIFA 22 again. However, it is likely that some cards will also be available in weekly challenges or SBCs (Squad Building Challenges).

Shapeshifters Team 2 – These crazy cards are available this time

This is what the team looks like: The second Shapeshifters team features incredibly strong cards that have also received extraordinary positions. There is a winger card of Ronaldo (99), as well as striker cards for the actual defenders Ramos (96) and Marcelo (97). 

You can check out the complete team here.


Here you can look at the previous leaks for the Shapeshifters Event Team 2:

FIFA 22 Shapeshifters Team 2 – Leaks show top cards

What are these leaks? The leaks come from the well-known FUT leaker Fut Sheriff (via Twitter), who has frequently hit the mark with his leaks. It is unknown where the information comes from.

More about FIFA on MeinMMO:

These crazy cards could Shapeshifters Team 2 bring: According to Fut Sheriff, there will again be some really crazy cards this time. For example, the leaks mention striker cards for the defenders Sergio Ramos (96) and Marcelo (97). Additionally, there is supposed to be an extremely strong winger card for Cristiano Ronaldo (99).

„The Hell on Earth“ – Strike in Destiny 2 drives players to despair with its mechanics

Britta ♤ BeAngel Britta ♤ BeAngel Reading time 6 minutes

Who Destiny 2 players eventually find themselves in the Strike rotation of the Vanguard Ops. But while most Strikes there are entertaining and quite easy, there is one that drives many players to despair. To retire it to the Content Vault, they would even sacrifice Raid Exotics to Bungie. MeinMMO has looked into how and why the Strike is currently splitting the Destiny community.

This is the Strike in question: There are several Strikes in Destiny 2 that can be played via the Vanguard Ops playlist in a random rotation with matchmaking. However, while most are quick and easy, with no mechanics to think too much about, one Strike stands out. “The Corrupted” has been making players in Destiny 2 despair for years.

  • The Strike takes place in the Dreaming City, and the Guardians must locate one of Queen Mara’s closest advisors, Sedia, and free her from the control of the Taken.
Sedia has the toughest bump-and-shove mechanic with floating platforms.

When his location appears on the screen, the Guardians hurry to leave the activity and leave their teammates behind. So reports Phiau, a father, who now plays Destiny 2 with his son:

I was playing Strikes with my son today and we encountered “The Corrupted.”
My son: “Oh, I hate this Strike.”
I: “Why?”
My son: “Because as soon as it loads, everyone leaves.”

Sadly, these experiences are happening more frequently in Destiny 2, and there is a reason for it. “The Corrupted” was last week in the Nightfall rotation, and during that time, it literally cost many players all their nerves.

The Strike is unsuitable for a playlist with matchmaking: In the eyes of these players, “The Corrupted” is already considered “inappropriately long, annoying, and an absolute slog.” As a Nightfall, with additional modifiers, it is even more challenging. Then when matchmaking is added for the Strike playlist, which is available at lower difficulty levels, it becomes “hell on earth”.

  • When players are randomly assigned together, it often happens that the special orb mechanic of the Strike, which runs throughout the entire activity, is overlooked.
  • Moreover, the Strike is very long and includes some “bump-and-shove mechanics,” which makes it significantly harder to eliminate enemies and take down the boss “Sedia” quickly.
  • If the random and unsuspecting teammates do not respond to “orb tosses,” are constantly shoved off the map, or do not know what they should be doing to play safely, patience runs thin.

Because of this, some players repeatedly say: For a quick playlist activity, this combination of a lengthy Strike, orb mechanics, and ignorant teammates is simply unsuitable and also far too exhausting to want to play willingly.

For this reason, player Imagine_TryingYT in the relevant Reddit discussion is even willing to sacrifice everything if the Strike “The Corrupted” would finally disappear forever into the Content Vault.

[…] I know we have been against [the Content Vault] in the past. But just this once, I would find it perfectly fine if [Bungie] were to remove “The Corrupted.” I give [Bungie] what [they want]. Delete my Titan, take all my God rolls, take my Vex Mythoclast to hell. Please, I will literally delete my account and restart this game completely as long as I know that I never have to touch this Strike again. […]

The reason there is no Raid matchmaking

While the community on Reddit demands a relocation of the Strike to the Content Vault, Datto, the Destiny streamer and elite player, expresses his dismay at this discussion and defends the Strike “The Corrupted”.

I will not tolerate this slander against The Corrupted.
This Strike is fantastic!

writes Datto, a well-known Destiny content creator via Twitter

For him, the activity is a grand challenge, with good mechanics, and when there is whining, it is only because “a Strike takes longer than 8 minutes to receive a top reward,” as he says.

Such demands are, according to Datto, the reason why in Destiny 2 the difficulty levels of Master, Grandmaster, as well as Dungeon and Raid activities have not yet received matchmaking.

The Strike has been in the game since 2018, and a large portion of the players still do not know how to play it correctly. Among them are apparently also players who wish for appropriate matchmaking for the endgame but do not want to learn anything about it.

Destiny 2 – 20 Tips for Starting the Pinnacle Nightfall
von Britta ♤ BeAngel

On Reddit, Destiny players like 1AMA-CAT-AMA criticize this “mechanic resistance” of their fellow Guardians and the demand that The Corrupted should head to “Bungie’s mothball cabinet.”

All they want is a horde mode with trash-tier mobs that they can farm without difficulty with the Trinity Ghoul, that goes on forever and guarantees them loot. Then they wonder why they are bored with the game 2 days later.

In-game explanations are not a solution: Some players point out that there are no hints in the game on how to play the mechanics in The Corrupted, which is why they are clueless. Bungie could therefore integrate a hint tab in the game, as was recently done with the Gambit rules, which explains the game mechanics in detail.

What is the Content Vault in Destiny 2 again?

Bungie launched the so-called Content Vault in 2020 with the Beyond Light expansion. It is a place where “less actively played” targets and activities are regularly removed from the game and stored there. According to the developer, the Content Vault is necessary to allow fresh content to be added without cluttering the game.

Here, however, Destiny 2 has been pursuing the “concept of discovery” for years. Players are supposed to figure out for themselves how something works in the game and learn from it. This is more exciting than knowing immediately how something works. This is exactly why the day-one dungeons and raids have been so popular for years.

Once discovered, the new mechanics of the game spread very quickly in the community. You can watch them on Twitch or YouTube, read about them in guides, or play them in a fireteam and figure them out together. However, this requires that one wants to do so.

In the case of the Strike “The Corrupted,” this has not worked well because the orbs also deal damage when they are not charged, as player RC_0001RC_0001 points out. Perhaps the solution is much simpler, by having Bungie change the mechanics so that players are forced to understand and utilize the mechanics correctly.

[…] Guardians who do not keep an eye on [the mechanics] or do not have Datto’s phone number simply throw the ball at the enemy shields. […] It will deal enough damage that it’s not clear they are doing something wrong, so they will keep doing it. And there is nothing we can do to prevent them from getting the orb first.

destiny2-vorhut-strikes-daemmerung-feuerprobe3
In Vanguard Ops, 3 players take on small missions called “Strikes”.

This is how the orb mechanic works in the Strike “The Corrupted”

How does the orb mechanic work in the Strike? For all those who want to do better from now on, we would like to explain the exact orb mechanic of the Strike “The Corrupted,” which will make the activity overall easier and more relaxed:

  • In different places in the Strike, such as in the elevator, players can pick up special orbs. They are necessary because only with them can the shields of the enemies be broken in this Strike.
  • These orbs can not only be picked up and thrown but can also be tossed to other teammates.
  • Each toss maximizes the damage output. With each orb, this is possible up to 3x.
  • Charged orbs hum and glow. When the humming is loudest, you can throw them to deal maximum damage.

More news from our Destiny 2 editorial team can be found here:

What do you personally think about the Strike “The Corrupted”? Would it also be your request to move the content directly to the Content Vault? Please feel free to confess in the comments whether you knew about the secret orb mechanic with Sedia or not. And whether you are willing to learn mechanics and processes in Destiny 2 or would rather just push through.

Starting from October 4th, you will never be able to play Overwatch 1 again

Marko Jevtic Marko Jevtic Reading time 2 minutes

Overwatch 2 will be released on October 4 as a Free2Play title. As Blizzard has now clarified in a Reddit AMA, this also means the end of Overwatch 1.

In a Reddit AMA – a kind of interview with the entire Reddit community – on June 22, developers of Overwatch 2 answered fan questions. One of the most important pieces of information from this thread was the clear statement that Overwatch 1 will completely disappear, as soon as Part 2 is released on October 4 as a Free2Play title.

What do the developers say? In response to a question about the “Early Access” of the game, Director Aaron Keller explained: “When OW2 launches on October 4, it will be a replacement for the current live service.” This means that Overwatch 1 in its current form will no longer exist, but will be completely and utterly replaced by Overwatch 2. On PC, it will even run through the same file: Overwatch.exe.

For years, it was unclear what would happen to Overwatch 1

Why is this statement important? A tweet shortly after the reveal of Overwatch 2 caused years of confusion. It stated that players of Overwatch 1 and 2 will play together on the same maps. The community did not know if this meant that Overwatch 1 and 2 would be playable at the same time or if the successor would replace the original.

Now it is clear: Overwatch 1 will no longer be playable with the release of Part 2. For many players who have already been able to test the beta of the successor, this is not a problem. The changes in Part 2 are so good, that Part 1 seems “unplayable” in comparison.

Here you can see the gameplay trailer of the latest hero in Overwatch 2, Junker Queen:

There will likely not be an “Overwatch Classic”

Will Overwatch 1 come back? As the speculation that Overwatch 1 will be completely replaced has been circulating for almost 3 years, some fans hope for a kind of “Overwatch Classic” – that Overwatch will be made available as it was at launch, similar to what happened with WoW Classic.

In 2020, former Overwatch director Jeff Kaplan stated that a hypothetical Overwatch Classic “would be very costly from a technical and artistic perspective” (via Twitter). There have also been hints that Blizzard itself has not fully archived Overwatch in its old form, which means that such a restoration is unlikely to happen.

What do you think about this announcement? Do you want to continue playing Overwatch 1 or do you prefer Part 2 with all its changes? Let us know in the comments.

Pokémon GO: New find creates excitement among trainers – Shows 3 legendary Galar Pokémon

Franzi Korittke Franzi Korittke Reading time 4 minutes

In Pokémon GO hints of three new legendary Pokémon have been found that are creating a lot of excitement among trainers. We at MeinMMO have looked into what these findings are and show you the community’s reactions.

What findings are we talking about? Just a few days ago, there were hints of new Pokémon from the 8th game generation and a new special ball, and the Pokéminers have made another interesting discovery.

This suggests that there will soon be even more new Pokémon from the 8th generation in the game. We have summarized below which ones are likely to be.

Who are the Pokéminers?
The Pokéminers are a group of data miners. They regularly search the game code of Pokémon GO and try to find new upcoming content and changes. They then make this data publicly available to other players.

The predictions of the Pokéminers have been relatively reliable in the past, and much of it has indeed been implemented in the game. However, this type of data is not official information, which is why Niantic can still adjust and change this content or even decide against a release.

These are the findings on the legendary Galar Pokémon

As martycochrane shows in his current reddit post, the Pokéminers have made a new discovery in the game code. In addition to the image material for the three new Ultra Beasts and the Snorlax with cowboy hat, which are debuting at the live events surrounding the GO Fest, three more images have been discovered.

As you can see in the graphic below, these are the legendary Galar Pokémon Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres.

What kind of Pokémon are these? Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres are the legendary birds from the Kanto region. With the introduction of the 8th game generation, all three monsters have received an additional Galar form.

Visually, the differences are easy to spot. Particularly Zapdos has much more pronounced plumage in its Galar form than in its Kanto form. Additionally, their bodies are colored differently in the Galar region. For comparison, we have embedded an image of the three legendary birds from the Kanto region below:

Moltres, Zapdos, and Articuno

The Galar monsters are not only visually different from the birds of the Kanto region but also differ in their types:

PokémonKanto FormGalar Form
ArticunoIce
Flying		Psychic

ZapdosElectric
Flying		Fighting

MoltresFire

“Hopefully, they will be released soon”

The trainers in the reddit community are excited about these findings. They look forward to finally being able to catch the three legendary Galar Pokémon and are already speculating on when the monsters might appear in the game (via reddit.com):

  • Dracarys1988: “I love all 3 Galar birds. Hopefully, they will be released soon”
  • ekromFPS: “Maybe the legendary Galar birds will be the most important hyper bonus unlocked after each GO Fest.”
  • repo_sado: “Maybe just part of the hyper bonus. The first hyper bonus was much better than the release of a new legendary.”
  • edwinodresseiron: “Do the shinys of the Galar birds have the colors of their Kanto counterparts? That’s cool, I didn’t know that! Also: How heavy will Galar-Moltres approximately be? I need a bunch of XL candies for my shiny-Moltres, so I’ve been waiting for it to appear in raids anyway.”
  • orhan94: “Moltres and Articuno will be harder since they both lose a double weakness. Zapdos might be easier since the top psychic attacker is offensively much stronger than the top rock or ice attackers, I think.”

Is a timely release plausible? In principle, it would be plausible that the Galar forms of Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres are indeed part of the hyper bonuses. In recent years, these bonuses have been obtainable during the global GO Fest and ultimately granted you encounters with new legendary Pokémon.

For example, Zacian and Zamazenta debuted in this context in 2021. The hyper bonus was changed in 2022 and you can now earn it piece by piece at the various events surrounding the GO Fest to enhance subsequent events. However, what specific rewards you can expect is still not known.

Thus, after reaching the hyper bonus, the GO Fest in Berlin will be enhanced for the upcoming birthday event. A release of the legendary Pokémon at the closing event of the GO Fest on August 27 would also be possible.

Whether and when it will actually happen, and you will finally be able to catch the legendary Galar birds remains to be seen. If there is new information about this, you will find out here on MeinMMO.

More about Pokémon GO:

What do you think of the findings regarding the 3 legendary Galar birds? Do you hope that Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres will come into the game in this form soon? Or would you prefer to see other Pokémon released first? Feel free to leave your opinion here on MeinMMO in the comments and exchange views with other trainers.

Those participating in the live events for the GO Fest can look forward to another highlight. Content creators like Spieletrend and Trainer Tips will be coming to Berlin for the GO Fest. We have looked into when you can meet them.

WoW Classic: Wrath of the Lich King changes legendary raid, will not be like it was back then

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

A raid in Wrath of the Lich King Classic will not be as easy as it used to be. Blizzard is making changes to the raids in WoW Classic.

In WoW Classic, the beta for Wrath of the Lich King has just started, but the developers have already announced that they want to make several changes. WotLK will not be exactly as you remember it. Some features, like the dungeon finder, will not be present at all. But there will also be adjustments to the raids. The first raid from WotLK will be harder than it was back then: Naxxramas.

What has been said? In the developer update for Wrath of the Lich King Classic, plans were discussed. There were some thoughts on what could be changed in WotLK Classic, such as a higher difficulty for heroic dungeons or the same loot in 10-man and 25-man raids. However, neither of these will happen. Instead, there will be an adjustment to Naxxramas. The raid will be harder.

What do the changes look like? Specific changes have not yet been mentioned, but at least the general direction has been indicated. Both the health points of the monsters in the raid are to be increased, as well as the damage they deal. In other words: fights will last a little longer and it will happen more often that a few players will meet their demise.

WoW Classic Naxxramas

Why is Blizzard doing this? The answer is simple: Naxxramas was too easy back then and even significantly easier than Blizzard intended. Therefore, the difficulty is being raised. This not only makes the raid more interesting, but also stretches the time a little until the next raid tier launches with Ulduar. Literally, it is stated:

Our design intent for [Naxxramas in] 2008 was to make it a little easier than the original from 2006. But we overshot our mark and made it much easier than we planned. The slight increase in difficulty will provide for more exciting and interesting challenges […]

In fact, Naxxramas in Wrath of the Lich King was present mainly for two reasons. First, Blizzard didn’t have to create a completely new raid and could just “copy-paste” it, and second, only a fraction of players experienced Naxxramas in the original WoW before the expansion The Burning Crusade was launched.

If you’re more interested in WoW Classic this might also interest you:

What about “No Changes”? No matter what changes are made to WoW Classic, there are always a few players who hope for a purist experience and view any change negatively.

However, Blizzard has long since deviated from this and seems to compromise from time to time, if it benefits the gameplay experience for the larger audience. The adjustments to Naxxramas appear to be one of those changes.

What do you think about Naxxramas becoming harder? A good thing? Or should Blizzard just leave balancing alone?
