Player has been playing V Rising for almost 9 hours a day since release – This is what he has achieved

How much playtime is actually in V Rising? A player has done pretty much everything there is to do in the game – even though he plays on a PvP server. An impressive achievement that took a lot of time.

What has the player achieved? The reddit user mrdrpinhead has shared his accomplishments and shows how he possesses all soul shards on a PvP server and has equipped 9 of his servants with gear level 83. He himself is wearing level 85 – the maximum in the game.

There are only 3 different shards. Each player can own a maximum of 9 servants and equip them up to level 83. This means that mrdrpinhead has pretty much achieved everything there is to do in V Rising.

The only thing we don’t know is whether his blood bank is full. If he has also locked up a donor with 95-100% purity from the 6 different blood types, there will hardly be anything left for him to do – except defend his achievements.

How long does it take? He states his playtime as 88 hours. This means he has played about 9 hours a day on average since V Rising was released. However, the picture also shows that he was not alone; at least one other player is with him.

With 88 hours, he has still achieved a decent playtime. The community keeps asking whether V Rising is worth it, and the nearly monotonous answer is: “That’s the best 20 bucks I’ve invested in a long time.”

The achievement of mrdrpinhead is particularly remarkable because he plays on a PvP server, as he himself says. There are still a few special rules there.

Everything completed on a PvP server

Why is this such a great achievement? On PvP servers, there are only three soul shards at all. These can be collected to provide two-hour special buffs. To obtain them, you must defeat the toughest bosses in the game.

Afterwards, the shard must be brought home. When you carry a shard, you are slower, cannot teleport, transform, or ride. Any other player can simply take the shard from you on a PvP server.

Once you have embedded a shard at home in the corresponding Eye of Twilight, every player on the server sees the location. You must therefore also defend your loot against greedy opponents.

mrdrpinhead possesses all 3 shards simultaneously. The only way for opponents to get these now is to take them from him. But since he is apparently well-equipped, that should be difficult…

Can I also have fun alone? On a private server or in pure PvE, you will probably not take as long to achieve everything. After all, other players will not make your life difficult.

Then again, vampires like mrdrpinhead are apparently also experienced survival players. If you take your time and enjoy the game, you will easily reach your hours. We are currently playing in a 2-player co-op and have reached about half of the game with around 40 hours.

Additionally, V Rising is still in development and currently in Early Access. There is already an inaccessible area on the map that will surely come. However, we do not know when it will continue.

If you want to join later, that is absolutely no problem, at least in most cases:

Can I still start with the new Steam hit V Rising now, or will everyone beat me up?

Twitch’s biggest streamer, Amouranth, says: Fear of poverty, aging and the haters drive her on

Kaitlyn “Amouranth” Siragusa is the most successful streamer on the platform Twitch. The 28-year-old has built an empire on social media. She puts in an enormous amount of work every week, streaming nearly 11 hours a day on average last year. What motivates her to do so?

How successful is Amouranth on Twitch and beyond?

  • Amouranth is by far the most successful streamer on Twitch: This is mainly due to her enormous workload. She streamed for 3,983 hours in the last 365 days, which is almost 11 hours every day.
  • Amouranth is the only female streamer among the 50 most-watched channels on Twitch in terms of hours viewed. She ranks 38th among all channels. The second-largest female streamer, Pokimane, doesn’t appear until 123rd place – but she streams much less than Amouranth. Furthermore, there are few “truly” successful women on Twitch: Among the 100 top earners found in the Twitch leak, there were only 3 women.
  • In addition to her pure streaming on Twitch, Amouranth has to fuel many social media platforms. By now, she has also built a team for this. Just from the Onlyfans platform, she earns between 1.6 and 1.8 million US dollars a month.

Haters say: When you get older, everything falls apart, and you go bankrupt

What motivates her? In a series of Twitter posts, Amouranth explains what drives her to put in so many hours every day (via twitter)

She says:

A large part of my success is literally the haters who tell me: Everything will fall apart once I get older.

It has made me work harder than I ever could before, it has made me hire employees who are important for pushing me forward and maintaining this forward momentum.

The trolls telling her that she will one day be poor have made her save every cent she makes. She invests the money or puts it into her content.

The newly formed team motivates her to keep going, because now she also has “mouths to feed” and people who depend on her. She can no longer just disappear for months, because someone has to pay the bills.

Twitch streamer uses prejudices as fuel

Here’s the scoop: Amouranth faces two typical accusations that many streamers receive:

  • “When you get older, nobody wants to watch you anymore – then you’re out of fashion”
  • “Money earned quickly is gone just as quickly, then you’ll be looking around”

These are actual accusations that fit the stereotype of an oblivious influencer who is completely surprised when the tax authority comes knocking, or who believes that a short-term hype would last forever.

However, we actually see that some streamers are aware of their situation and not everyone stumbles blindly into it, but rather reflects on themselves. After all, even in the biggest hype, viewers eventually disappear quickly. And ultimately, every streamer risks losing their career due to a ban.

twitch-amouranth
The streamer Amouranth is on air for more than 10 hours every day – excluding Sundays and holidays.

In Amouranth’s case, we see the discrepancy between self-perception and public perception clearly:

Amouranth is seen by her critics as a superficial “cybergirl idiot” who will look around as soon as the years catch up with her.

However, from her own statements, it emerges that she sees herself more as a lonely girl who had no friends because her parents moved around all the time. She escaped into fantasy worlds and began to be interested in cosplay. And now, the girl has turned into a woman who has slipped into the role of an influencer, but at heart is a businesswoman.

She can use such criticism as motivation for her success:

Tens of thousands of fans celebrate a new emote in Destiny 2, although it costs real money

In Destiny 2 the new Season 17 has started, bringing some new features. This includes an emote that can currently be purchased in the shop – and it has enchanted many fans.

What kind of emote is this? The new emote is called “Faithful Companion” and fulfills a long-held wish for many Destiny 2 players in the new Season 17: Finally, you can pet a dog in the game!

The description reads “Forever the best friend of a Guardian”. When you summon the dog using the gesture, your new companion receives a little pet on the head and then stays by your side until you move away from that spot.

How to get the emote: You can currently get the exotic gesture only in the shop, in exchange for 1,000 Silver. You can only obtain Silver in exchange for real money – 1,000 Silver is roughly equivalent to 9.99 Euros.

100% of the proceeds from this emote are supposed to go to charity for the Bungie Foundation. This is also one of the reasons why the emote is so well-received by many players – and of course, because you can pet a dog.

New Dog Emote in Destiny 2 Makes Waves on Reddit

Link to the Reddit content

This is how fans are reacting: A short clip of the emote was shared in the “gaming” subreddit, which quickly became one of the top posts. Currently, the post has received over 42,000 upvotes and more than 900 comments.

Many comments praise the new gesture in Destiny 2:

  • “Every game should have a dog companion,” says user Antisound187 (via reddit).
  • “A rollercoaster of emotions. Destiny 2 added a dog petting emote – Yes! In the shop – who cares! The proceeds go to charity – so that’s good,” describes user Jappy_toutou (via reddit).
  • “We are so enamored with the best bois, I love it,” writes AcidAlchamy (via reddit).
  • “I bought it immediately without realizing it was for charity, and I’m glad it is for charity and I get a good dog from it,” celebrates user Zerosurvivors (via reddit).

Many people are just happy that they can finally pet a dog now, after previously only being able to pet cats and chickens.

This is what makes the emote special: As Bungie describes in the current blog post, there is a backstory to the emote (via bungie.com).

The dog is said to be a real Belgian Shepherd named Artemis. This dog apparently plays an important role in the story of a special Guardian around “resilience, recovery, and triumph, which was only made possible through the Destiny community and his dog Artemis”.

Bungie wants to reveal what exactly is behind it on “Bungie Day”. So we have to wait and see.

In general, animal companions and similar topics come up in various games from time to time. In Elden Ring, for example, fans had fun simply calling every animal a dog. However, things got confusing when a guy appeared, who wanted to live in the game as a turtle.

Pokémon GO: All information about the GO Battle Day and the new Mega Evolutions in PvP

In Pokémon GO, the big GO Battle Day in the PvP League will take place tomorrow, on May 29, 2022. For the first time, you’ll also be able to use Mega Evolutions. We from MeinMMO have summarized all the information about the event for you below.

What is the GO Battle Day? Currently, the interseason of the GO Battle League is taking place in Pokémon GO, which will remain active until June 1. At the end of the season, a special battle day will occur.

During this event, you can participate in a particularly high number of PvP battles, receive lots of Stardust, and for the first time, also use your Mega Evolutions.

All information about the GO Battle Day

When does the GO Battle Day take place? The battle day starts on May 29 at 12:00 AM local time and runs until 11:59 PM local time.

In which leagues can you play? You can compete against other trainers during the GO Battle Day in the Great League, Ultra League, and Master League.

What bonuses are there? Throughout the entire GO Battle Day, you can look forward to the following bonuses:

  • up to 20 battle sets (100 battles) on that day
  • four times as much Stardust when you win
  • Gladio pants as an avatar item upon completing a set, regardless of rank
    • If you have already received this item, unfortunately, you will not get it again
  • Use of Mega Evolutions

Mega Evolutions in PvP Battles – What you need to know

Following the recent changes regarding Mega Evolutions, you can now also use your Mega Pokémon in the Master League for the first time during the GO Battle Day. Mega Evolutions are temporary evolutions of certain monsters, such as Gyarados or Charizard.

This is how you can use them: To access Mega Evolutions, you must Mega evolve your desired Pokémon before the battle. To do this, go to your Pokémon storage and select the desired monster. There you will have a button that allows you to trigger the evolution.

If you have already Mega evolved the Pokémon once, the subsequent evolution will be free for you. If not, you will need to spend a certain amount of Mega Energy. Depending on the monster, this amounts to between 100 and 300 Mega Energy. You can find out the exact amount on the evolution button display.

What Mega Pokémon are available? Currently, there are 21 different Mega Evolutions possible in the game. You can rely on the following Mega Pokémon:

  • Mega Venusaur (Grass/Poison)
  • Mega Charizard X (Fire/Dragon)
  • Mega Charizard Y (Fire/Flying)
  • Mega Blastoise (Water)
  • Mega Beedrill (Bug/Poison)
  • Mega Pidgeot (Normal/Flying)
  • Mega Gyarados (Water/Dark)
  • Mega Gengar (Ghost/Poison)
  • Mega Kangaskhan (Normal)
  • Mega Aerodactyl (Rock/Flying)
  • Mega Ampharos (Electric/Dragon)
  • Mega Steelix (Steel/Ground)
  • Mega Houndoom (Dark/Fire)
  • Mega Manectric (Electric)
  • Mega Altaria (Dragon/Fairy)
  • Mega Absol (Dark)
  • Mega Latias (Dragon/Psychic)
  • Mega Latios (Dragon/Psychic)
  • Mega Lopunny (Normal/Fighting)
  • Mega Venusaur (Grass/Ice)

What you need to keep in mind: Only one Mega Evolution can be active at the same time. Once triggered, it remains active for eight hours. If you want to evolve another Mega Pokémon, the previous monster’s Mega Evolution will be terminated. You will receive a corresponding notification in the game.

It’s best to consider in advance which Mega Pokémon you want to use in battle to avoid having to develop them anew each time. Additionally, you should keep in mind that Mega Pokémon can only be used in the Master League.

Is the GO Battle Day worth it?

If you enjoy playing in the GO Battle League and want to compete against other trainers, you should definitely take advantage of the GO Battle Day. Instead of the usual 25 battles you can maximally perform daily, you have the opportunity to fight 100 times on the battle day.

This obviously also increases the amount of your rewards. Additionally, you will have the chance to farm a lot of Stardust if you win the battles. So it can really pay off. With the first use of Mega Evolutions in the Master League, the battles will also become really exciting.

Will you participate in the GO Battle Day? Which Mega Pokémon do you want to use? Or is the PvP League not your thing at all? Let us know in the comments.

In the coming weeks, a lot is happening in Pokémon GO. We will show you all events in June and which ones are particularly worthwhile.

LoL: The best team in Europe was “lost”, but it’s still enough for the USA – now the final boss awaits in the match of the year

In League of Legends, the European champion G2 Esports has had some strange days. At the MSI 2022 tournament in LoL, they qualified for the semifinals despite 5 consecutive losses. They particularly rallied against their rival Evil Geniuses from the USA. But in the semifinals, there is no time for jokes: Because in the semifinals, on May 28th, T1 and Faker, the long-time rivals, are waiting for them.

This is how it went for G2 in the Rumble Stage:

  • At MSI 2022, 6 teams, the champions of their regions, competed against each other in the “Rumble Stage.” Only 4 teams advanced.
  • The European representatives, G2 Esports, won their first 4 games, including against the favorites T1 (South Korea) and RNG (China): They were looking great.
  • But then G2 lost the next 5 games in a row. Even total underdogs like the Saigon Buffalos suddenly won against G2, who had previously won 24 games in a row. It was like a curse.

She will be the next new champ in LoL:

Lost 5 times in a row – Yet slid into the knockout stage

Because the other games went in G2’s favor, they could actually qualify for the semifinals despite the fifth loss in a row. The tension was gone before the last Rumble match.

The long-time jungler of G2, Jankos, commented on this nonchalantly:

„0-5 and we made it to the knockout games. Our job here is done.”

Completely broken G2 defeats US team and the fans celebrate it

What broke the losing streak? In the last game of the Rumble Stage, it was precisely the North American team Evil Geniuses waiting. Europe and NA share a long-standing rivalry: Fans and players frequently tease each other.

Before the tournament, the NA champion, Evil Geniuses said they were clearly better than G2 Esports.

G2 loves to tease North America a little.

But throughout the tournament, G2 had repeatedly won against Evil Geniuses. And indeed, even this time, G2 managed to win against EG despite the terrible losing streak.

Jankos, always in good spirits:

„We felt somewhat lost during the 0–5 run, but it’s good that North America always has our back!”

The saying is commented on with numerous memes; people love to give North Americans a hard time.

A little more seriously, the German-Turkish top laner of G2, Broken Blade, dealt with the losing streak. He said that the opponents quickly and well adapted to G2’s playstyle. However, G2 learned a lot from the losses:

Semifinals on Saturday against T1 will be the most important match of the year so far

What’s next? In the semifinals, there is now no time for jokes: On Saturday, May 28th, G2 Esports must face T1. They had announced before the tournament that they would eliminate them from MSI 2022.

But the team led by Faker will not make it easy for them. Faker and T1 want revenge for the times G2 eliminated them from major tournaments. The series between G2 and T1 is likely to be the highlight of the LoL year so far for all fans.

Update: May 28th, 10:33 AM: Right now, on Saturday morning, the semifinal between T1 and G2 is running. For those who want to watch, here is the link.

Diablo Immortal managers respond to Pay2Win accusations from the biggest MMORPG YouTuber

The release of Diablo Immortal is just around the corner. However, there has already been criticism from many voices, including well-known names on Twitch and YouTube. MeinMMO had the opportunity to speak with the heads, including about the topic of Pay2Win.

What are the allegations about?

The corresponding videos received several hundred thousand views within just a few hours. Asmongold and co. are upset about the items that can be purchased and the advantages they bring.

Previously, the heads spoke about the shop in Diablo Immortal. Since the beta, a lot has changed, and feedback and criticism from players have been implemented for the release. However, what exactly is changing has not yet been revealed.

In the interview, we spoke with Wyatt Cheng (Game Director) and Peiwen Yao (Executive Producer). The two are significantly involved in the development of Diablo Immortal. We asked them how they deal with such videos and feedback.

What you are reading here is just an excerpt from the full interview, which we found important enough to show you separately. The full interview on updates, content, and more will be released soon on MeinMMO. Here you can also find everything you need to know about Diablo Immortal in 3 minutes:

Everything you need to know about Diablo Immortal – in 3 minutes

“Every piece of feedback is a gift”

MeinMMO: Some influencers have created and published videos highlighting alleged Pay2Win features. They garnered hundreds of thousands of views within a short time. What is your stance on influencers and such content in general?

Cheng: “Two things about that. The first is that I encourage every player to provide feedback. We say at Blizzard: every piece of feedback is a gift. Influencers are of course a source of feedback.

We also look in forums, social media, direct feedback… Feedback comes in many forms. We want players to always tell us what they think of their gaming experience.

Regarding these videos specifically: I think it’s important to emphasize again that the best way to progress is simply to play the game. A lot of the recent coverage was super focused on the legendary gems and acted as if that was the only thing that mattered.

But that’s really not the case. Think about your Diablo experience. There is XP and Paragon, which are almost more important in their way. There is gear and legendary items, the social network, and friends. In an MMO, it is important how you interact with others.

When we think about the game, we think about players never being barred from progressing their character. At no point should you say: ‘Ah, I’m not even logging in. There’s nothing to do without spending money.’ That’s just not true.

You can always find new items. We will never sell gear. We will not sell XP boosts. You have to play the game to progress. That is a cornerstone of the gameplay-first philosophy: the best way to improve your character is to play.”

Yao: “For us, the key is to offer different ways to play the game. Some may like the legendary gems and crests, others may enjoy the social aspect. Diablo Immortal is a free game, and we will attract many new players.

I would hope that these players find their own way to experience Diablo Immortal in its entirety.”

When will Diablo Immortal be released? On June 2, Diablo Immortal officially goes live. Just before the release, there was another roadmap with important info about the launch, including the start time. At 7:00 PM German time, you will be able to play.

You can play Diablo Immortal on iOS, Android, and PC, with the PC client still officially in open beta. However, all progress will be carried over later, which is why we are talking about a soft launch.

The new dungeons of ESO are perfect to prepare you for High Isle – If you can manage them

With the Update 33 Ascending Tide, the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online has received two additional dungeons. These include the dungeon Coral Bastion and Shipwright’s Gram. MiezeMelli from MeinMMO has ventured into both dungeons and reports back to you.

What are these dungeons? The Coral Bastion is located in Cliff’s Point. The Shipwright’s Gram can be found in the north of Summerset. In both dungeons, you will encounter not only the regular 3 bosses but also secret bosses that grant bonuses for the normal boss fights.

Both dungeons were tested in veteran mode with hard mode. We also faced the challenge of skipping the secret bosses, which means we forego important buffs in the regular boss fights.

You can find everything about the current DLC in our ESO Special on Ascending Tide.

Short distances between the bosses in the Shipwright’s Gram

What I really liked: There isn’t much running between the bosses. The distance you cover in the dungeon is relatively short, and you reach the next boss quickly.

ESO - Shipwright's Gram Quest NPC jpg

The dungeon was first entered by my group and me in the following configuration:

  • Tank (Necromancer)
  • DD (Nightblade)
  • DD (Nightblade)
  • Healer (Nightblade)

In the new dungeon, you can obtain buffs, i.e., advantages for the regular boss fights, through the so-called secret bosses. But there is also an achievement for skipping them. We wanted to take on this challenge.

The first boss requires a lot of healing and a stable tank

Our healer quickly noticed in some phases that he had to heal effectively. Our tank also reported shortly after that the 1st boss is probably less fun as a Necromancer, and after a few tries, he switched to his Dragon Knight. That was definitely much more pleasant.

ESO - Shipwright's Gram 1280

We quickly realized that the phase in which a flesh atronach spawns needs to be ended quickly. Every player receives a strong dot. Therefore, we directed all damage from the DDs onto the flesh colossus. The adds are also not particularly pleasant in large numbers.

The essence drain from the Nightblade does not only deal good AOE damage, but it also heals the group. This saved us in a few situations. Overall, the boss is already tough, but once you figure it out and know where to place your feet, it is definitely manageable.

The second boss reminds the tank of Bahsei from Felshain

For me as a DD, this boss was actually not too bad. The tank has more fun, especially when he also has to tank a slurper alongside the boss. Our tank compared it to the boss Bahsei in Felshain. There I have also seen some tanks regularly get taken down.

The final boss Captain Numirril is doable even without the secret buff

We definitely needed several tries before we had it figured out. But after finding out that a bit of self-healing, occasionally dealing damage to the adds, and interrupting can work wonders, the boss is also manageable without the buff from the secret boss.

Compared to the same achievement in the Coral Bastion, this boss is even quite easy in hard mode.

For completing the HM, we then received the following achievements:

  • Victors of the Shipwright’s Gram (Achievement)
  • Conqueror of the Shipwright’s Gram (Achievement)
  • Set Sail! (Achievement)
  • Without Spiritual Assistance (Achievement)
  • Body Painting of the Abyssal Embrace (Collection: Body Painting)
  • Trophy: Nazaray (Collection: Undaunted Trophies)
  • Bust: Nazaray (Collection: Undaunted Busts)

Afterward, we also earned the achievement “Safe to the Gills” in another run. For that, you need to stand still in the area with the wave. It took me ages to get it because you really have to stand in the area for a long time, and the healer definitely has to keep an eye on you while doing so.

In the same try, we also got the “Safe Harbor” achievement. That was super easy; you just have to quickly take out the adds at the end (when the boss has only a little health left) and wait until less than 10 galleons are lying on the ground. That was a piece of cake compared to hard mode.

The Coral Bastion is a true challenge

This dungeon directly reminds one of the dungeons and vaults in Summerset. And it is precisely there that the new dungeon is also located. What initially looks like an open area by the coast ends in many nested Alinor-style vault sections. So it’s best not to lose your orientation.

I myself am not necessarily a fan of how open the dungeon is designed. I prefer paths that are a bit more defined by the surroundings and where you don’t lose your sense of direction in dead ends. But overall, I like the Summerset aesthetic.

ESO - Coral Bastion 2

Funny whirlpool mechanic with the 1st boss Maligalig

The boss is relatively easy compared to the other two bosses. Once you understand the whirlpool mechanic, it’s actually quick to manage. And this is also a mechanic that hasn’t been seen before in ESO.

The characters look really funny when they are spun around by the whirlpool and flail their arms and legs. That’s why I like this boss fight.

The 2nd boss Sarydil doesn’t really do much

This boss is not really difficult, just annoying. Because although it looks difficult at first, it really isn’t. The annoying part is the continuous hopping around by the boss, the far too long add phases, and the 1000 mini AOEs that you should avoid.

Especially during the add phases, I absolutely cannot understand the developers. There are simply 3 add phases in a row. These phases are really boring and annoying. I absolutely cannot understand why they thought this would be a good idea. I imagine it like this:

  • “What else should we add to the boss?” – “How about an add phase?”
  • “Okay. But that’s still not enough?” – “Another add phase!”
  • “Hmm okay, if you insist. But that doesn’t solve the problem, we still need something…” – “Add phase! Add phase!”
  • “The same song? Okay, play the same song again!”

The final boss Varallion in the Coral Bastion is a true challenge

Compared to the final boss of the other dungeon, this boss is really a cool new challenge. We still have not managed to defeat the hard mode without the secret buff. Unfortunately, this also has a bit to do with RNG.

ESO - Coral Bastion

And here we are at the point that annoys me. Both in terms of mechanics and the order of the first 3 mini bosses is completely random. Especially when multiple mechanics stack on the same person, players can sometimes simply do nothing.

The Griffin or miniboss Iliata creates a huge lightning area. Combined with the tide shift of Varallion, almost the entire floor is off-limits. Depending on where you are at the beginning, it can sometimes be impossible to reach the free spot. This is super unnecessary.

Still, I actually find it cool that we couldn’t defeat the boss right on the first day. Thus, it presents a real challenge (at least in hard mode without the secret buff).

Conclusion: The dungeons of Ascending Tide are cool!

Even though there were one or two mechanics that I didn’t like and that could be quite annoying, the dungeons are, in my opinion, very well done!

They are once again a cool challenge that has sparked my ambition. What convinces me especially is that organized teamwork is necessary to complete them. I really value this in an MMORPG.

Moreover, there are new mechanics that I liked. The water whirlpool for the 1st boss in the Coral Bastion is pretty well done and looks funny.

The most expensive game on Steam costs 1,000 € – But it also makes your floor vibrate

The gaming platform Steam has established itself as one of the most important places for gamers to acquire PC games many years ago. The selection of the industry giant is unimaginably vast and offers far more than just AAA titles. But what is the most expensive game on Steam?

The most expensive game on Steam, not counting DLCs, is a “Virtual Reality” game. With “Ascent Free-Roaming VR Experience”, Fury Games released a VR multiplayer game that costs a whopping 999 €.

Here is Ascent Free-Roaming VR Experience on Steam.

What is Ascent Free-Roaming VR Experience about? In the expensive VR title, you must free a research facility infested with monsters using weaponry. There are bosses that will shake the ground beneath you using the VR technology employed.

Furthermore, players should be enabled to intervene in the action without complex controls through an intuitive weapon and healing system.

If you want to see how Ascent Free-Roaming VR Experience plays, we’ll embed a video from the developer studio Fury Games:

https://youtu.be/4LJamETU-UQ

Who is the game aimed at? Even though the VR title can be played with up to four players, it does not offer online co-op. Besides the single-player mode, Ascent features a local co-op mode, thus indicating to whom the expensive pleasure is directed. 

Ascent is not meant for the average player who wants to game at home for a few hours. The title is directed at arcades that focus on VR games.

The operator of such an arcade could purchase Ascent and offer it in their establishment. Players would then have to pay, for example, for entry into the arcade or book the Ascent area for a specific period.

However, Fury Games states on Steam that Ascent is not for commercial use in Ireland or the UK, and one should visit the developer’s website if they wish to use the title commercially in the region.

What is needed to play Ascent? To experience Ascent with all its integrated gameplay mechanics, you need not only plenty of space but also expensive hardware. 

No, we are not talking about a high-end gaming PC, but about the devices needed for control and similar purposes. Besides so-called “underfloor bass shakers” that make the ground vibrate, haptic suits and smart plug climate controls are also required.

Fury Games states the following on Steam: 

Feel the ground shaking beneath your feet as enemies approach, sense your opponent’s grip with tailored haptic feedback, and feel the air rush above your head with smart plug climate control.

Fury Games via Steam

What must my system be able to do if I want to play Ascent at home? Reading about haptic suits and vibrating floors could quickly lead one to think that Ascent is a very demanding game and even the latest hardware might struggle.

But in reality, no three combined RTX-3090 graphics cards are required to bring the VR experience into your living room. The minimum requirements for your PC are acceptable:

The minimum requirements according to Steam:

  • Operating System: Windows 8.1
  • Processor: i5-6400
  • Memory: 8 GB RAM
  • Graphics: Nvidia 1060 GPU
  • Storage: 5 GB available storage

Would you play Ascent Free-Roaming VR Experience if an arcade near you offered the game, or could you even imagine paying almost 1,000 € for a Steam game if you had the necessary hardware at home?

Many players are willing to spend large sums on games, merchandise, or even in-game items that excite them. For example, the most expensive items in Destiny 2 fall into the same price range as Ascent and are not sold by Bungie.

Destiny 2: Xur today – location and offers on 27.05.

Today Xur will make his first appearance in Destiny 2 during Season 17. As always, he has his exotic items with him, and perhaps some other items that you miss in your collection. MeinMMO will meet with him to show you his offerings first.

What happened this week in Destiny 2? Bungie has launched its new Season 17, the “Season of the Haunted.” However, so far, the Guardians are only plagued by a drought of content and are asking: “Is that all there is?” Aside from the new patrol zone and the two activities with voice lines for the story, everything is actually quite sparse. Whether Bungie has an ace up its sleeve remains to be seen.

At least the new dungeon “Duality” is already on the starting blocks. Check out the current trailer here:

The Trials of Osiris are taking a break

The new weapons from the dungeon “Duality,” which starts today at 7 PM.

This weekend, there are no “Trials of Osiris” taking place. Fans of PvP can have fun this weekend in Dynamic Control or dare into PvE and explore the new dungeon “Duality” along with the loot.

  • The Trials of Osiris will start for the first time in Season 17 on June 10.

At least the waiting time is worth it, as the Trials have been equipped with a new loot package in the “Season of the Haunted.” This includes new weapons, armor, a Sparrow, and a Ghost shell.

Additionally, the revamped Iron Banner event with Lord Saladin starts on Tuesday, May 31, at 7:00 PM. Players will then be able to discover and evaluate the changes that Bungie made to the popular PvP mode.

Do you believe Season 17 will gain some traction again, or do you see no hope for a refreshing breeze of content through events and new PvP content? Feel free to leave us a comment about your thoughts.

Vampires, beware: Cheaters in V Rising can destroy your progress

Some players currently complain in V Rising that they are losing their progress. The culprit is servers that disappear or are reset – even though they appear to be “official.” A helpful vampire explains how to prevent this.

What is the problem? Many players set up their own servers in V Rising, for instance, to avoid problems with the decay of castles. The servers can be freely named and some operators exploit this.

They describe their server as “official,” making it seem as if the game world is provided directly by the developers. However, it is not; it is in private hands.

This means: On the private server, an admin has the power to do whatever he wants. He can reset the server, take it offline, or change the rules. All players on it are affected.

How can I protect myself? The reddit user ImSavageAF explains that you can recognize whether a server is actually official or just claims to be by a small symbol. If you see a small, angular spiral before the name (the symbol of Stunlock Studios), then the server is directly from the developers.

V Rising no official servers
The Stunlock symbols (in green) indicate true, official servers. The one marked in red is not official.

In all other cases, it is a fan server that only calls itself official. Here, you risk losing your progress if the admin decides so.

There is a larger discussion in the thread. Many thank others for the hint, and some report that they have indeed lost many hours of work for this reason. Others say private servers are actually even better.

Unofficial servers also have advantages

What differences are there? Basically, the game runs the same on private and official servers. There may only be some differences in speed and rules under certain circumstances.

Private servers can use their own settings such as increased resources, more or less damage, different day and night cycles, and PvP rules. Additionally, you never know how the admin will decide the next day.

Official servers are always the same. They operate on the standard settings of the corresponding modes, and everyone has the same conditions. Here, you normally do not lose server-side progress, but players do sometimes report connectivity issues. Moreover, official servers are often very crowded, so there may not always be space to log in or to build in the world.

And what is better now? Private servers can be a gamble. As the reddit user dd179 writes: “Unofficial servers with a good community are significantly better than official ones. Official ones have no moderation and no punishment for those who grief you.”

Conversely, there is the experience of Excite_Throwaway: “Somehow I played for 2 hours with a friend when we were suddenly teleported to someone’s castle for a bloodbath. Everyone was dumbfounded.” Another time, the admin helped unsolicited with a boss. “I just want to exist normally, man.”

You must therefore decide for yourself what you prefer. If you just want to explore the game anyway and not play with strangers, you can simply start a private game. There you are alone or only with friends.

What else you need to know about V Rising can be found in the handy 2-minute video here:

By the way, you can now also simply play offline or create LAN servers. This means you don’t even need an internet connection anymore. If you want to be completely sure that you do not lose progress, you can fall back on this option.

If you are interested in V Rising, you should not be put off by such stories. If you pay attention to where you play, you should not have any problems – especially if you start with friends. And even starting later is not too much of a hurdle:

Twitch streamer feels the full wrath of hardcore football fans: “I have never divided people so much”

Maximilian “Trymacs” Stemmler is very successful on Twitch and YouTube, but sometimes causes discussions. There was quite a stir surrounding the soccer match Hamburger SV against Hertha BSC – before the game, Trymacs drew the ire of some fans with a ticket call.

Who is it about? Trymacs is one of the most successful Twitch streamers ever. The 27-year-old is active in all possible categories: from Clash of Clans to GTA Online RP to opening Pokémon card packs, it’s all there.

Trymacs finds many fans with his easygoing nature, but also has his critics – for example, because he poured a ton of money into FIFA packs.

In terms of events, Trymacs is also in demand. For example, he boxed against his fellow streamer MckyTV, which attracted many viewers, but also resulted in a wrist injury. In addition, he plans to assemble his own soccer team this summer.

However, during another event, some fans did not want to see him: the relegation match to the Bundesliga between Hamburger SV and Hertha BSC.

Ticket call brings trouble – big discussion about stadium visit

What was the problem? Before the second leg Hamburger SV against Hertha BSC, Trymacs called out that he wanted to buy tickets for the game – and offered 400 euros per piece. He also wanted to make a VLOG from the stadium.

This, however, did not sit well with some fans: there was some harsh criticism on social media from soccer fans regarding the call.

Offering so much money for tickets fuels the black market and would take away the chance for real fans to get into the stadium. Moreover, Trymacs, as a content creator, who is not really there for the game but only for the video, is considered out of place.

Why was this game so important? The game was crucial for HSV regarding promotion to the Bundesliga, while Hertha BSC aimed to avoid relegation to the 2nd league – so it was an incredibly important game. As a fan, this is one of those matches you tell stories about for years.

Accordingly, the demand for tickets is high – and it easily happens that tickets are offered at exorbitant prices. A suitable comparison might be the problem with PS5 scalpers, who secure numerous consoles to make a profit while “normal” consumers are left empty-handed.

Even in soccer, the potential of such a situation is comparable, especially for such important games – if not even a bit stronger, because many soccer fans are extremely emotionally attached to their club. Additionally, some differentiate between “true fans” and “event visitors” – that is, people who are wholeheartedly there and those who come just as a means to an end.

It doesn’t sit well when someone publicly offers a lot of money to still get tickets.

This is how Trymacs reacted: Trymacs addressed the issue in two videos on YouTube – in both, he mentions a “shitstorm” from HSV fans.

Many fans are “really angry”, he shares, and shows tweets where, for instance, the hashtag “Against Influencers in the Stadium” is used. It is mentioned that Trymacs is not welcome in the stadium, which sometimes leads to very heated discussions.

Trymacs himself commented that he used to often attend HSV summer camps, even had a season ticket, and followed HSV’s promotion fight: “And now I’m banned from the stadium because I’m a YouTuber,” says Trymacs (via YouTube).

He compares this to other matters where he has experienced something similar. The first time with Minecraft, Minecraft fans were upset, with GTA RP some GTA fans were mad, and some people think he shouldn’t box: “I want to play FIFA for the first time, I get a FIFA ban because someone has been playing FIFA since 2004. It’s the same in every game.”

He didn’t expect such anger with soccer. He does enjoy provoking people sometimes, but this time he didn’t want that at all.

This is how viewers react: In the YouTube comments, opinions from both sides can be found. Some think it’s good that Trymacs wants to go to the stadium – and also support the VLOG. That way they can at least experience some of the atmosphere if they can’t be there themselves. HSV fans also chime in, stating that they can’t share the hate, especially since he has had connections with HSV.

“Hello Max, I’m an HSV fan and was also there in Berlin, sadly I didn’t get tickets for our home game, it happens, we could have filled the stadium four times. I understand both sides and everyone should try to empathize, of course it has added value if Max comes to the stadium and makes a vlog, it’s cooler content. I believe the Ultras just want to create the coolest atmosphere possible in the stadium. And the likelihood that you will yell along at every chant is significantly lower than with other fans. That’s just how it is, I didn’t get a ticket either, but wish you a lot of fun in Volkspark💙🤍🖤

Timm Locke (via Youtube)

Others feel that influencers shouldn’t be there when they have nothing to do with the club because there are many fans who feel so much more. Just the fact of going to such a “deciding game” but not before does not sit well.

This is how it all ended

Ultimately, Trymacs managed to attend the game despite the criticism and recorded it as promised in the VLOG:

Together with MckyTV and his brother, Trymacs visited the Hamburger Volksparkstadion to watch the game live and take in some fan atmosphere.

At the very beginning of the video, he addresses the controversy once again:

People were discussing passionately; you can see that here as well. I’ve never split people so much. Many are really excited that I’m making a VLOG, they want photos with me. It’s ultra cool. The others keep shouting “son of a whore” and throwing trash. That’s definitely the contrast.

How did it go with the tickets? In the video, Trymacs explains that he ultimately did not buy any tickets – instead, he got them through a contact, which is why Micky is also there. “It was a fail that I said I wanted to buy expensive tickets,” he notes.

In the video, it can be seen how Trymacs walks through the stadium, interacts with fans, downs a beer or two, and ultimately stands in the stands.

During the game, the streamer was hopeful that HSV would still manage to get promoted to the Bundesliga despite being behind. In the end, however, it did not work out – Hertha BSC won the game and maintained their status.

In the realm of gaming, soccer often comes up – through FIFA, but also in other contexts: for example, a football coach played so much Football Manager that it helped his career.

The title image comes from Trymacs’ react video on YouTube.

You can now almost play Final Fantasy XIV as a single player – But is the MMORPG fun to play solo?

Final Fantasy XIV has taken a big step towards solo players with Patch 6.1, thereby approaching the origins of the popular game series. But how well does playing without other players work, and is it even fun?

How are solo players supported? Both Final Fantasy XIV and numerous other MMORPGs can present a frustrating challenge for players who prefer to go solo rather than experience a game in a group.

Players in Final Fantasy XIV can experience aspects of the game with a group of specially selected NPC characters instead of three other players through the so-called Trust system. This now even allows solo players to play dungeons from the expansions Shadowbringers, Endwalker, and A Realm Reborn.

Expert Opinion: Is Final Fantasy XIV solo playable?

Who are the experts? Is it possible for solo players to play certain content now without other players? But how well does that work in practice? The online gaming magazine IGN spoke with three content creators who can be classified as “Final Fantasy XIV” experts.

The following individuals are the experts:

  • Zepla/ Jessica St. John, YouTuber and Twitch streamer, 300,000 subscribers on YouTube
  • Quazii, YouTuber and Twitch streamer, approx. 60,000 subscribers on YouTube
  • MrHappy/ Michael Poveromo, YouTuber & Twitch streamer, approx. 200,000 subscribers on YouTube

What does Zepla say? One of these experts is YouTuber Jessica ‘Zepla’ St. John. In an interview with IGN, she stated that the Trust system is a good solo alternative to group content. However, she added that some activities like raids can still only be played in a group with other players.

One of her suggestions for improvement relates to the damage caused by NPC group members in dungeons. According to Zepla, this is significantly lower than that of an average player, causing solo activities to take noticeably longer.

What does Quazii say? According to Quazii, Final Fantasy XIV is primarily a single-player RPG, as he stated to IGN. Secondarily, the title is an MMORPG. He further says that the game’s biggest appeal lies in its storytelling.

Regarding the experience as a solo player, Quazii mentioned that it is possible to play the story of the expansion A Realm Reborn completely alone.

If you ask FF14 players what they enjoyed most in the game, the vast majority would say that it is the single-player quest experience. Especially when working through the main quest of the story. […] I’m not someone who cries at video games, but this game brought me to tears.

Content creator Quazii to IGN

What does MrHappy say? Content creator MrHappy believes that the Trust system allows solo players to experience the story of Final Fantasy XIV. However, he also believes that it will take a long time before players can play the entire main scenario of the title alone.

Together with Zepla, the streamer supports the retention of content that is exclusively meant for multiplayer. MrHappy expressed to IGN the assumption that maintaining such multiplayer content is meant to encourage players to play dungeons with other players.

Overall, Zepla and MrHappy feel it is good that Final Fantasy 14, as an MMORPG, is trying to provide alternatives for solo players, but they also think that group play should be promoted.

Conclusion from the experts: Is Final Fantasy XIV suitable for solo players? The three content creators agree with IGN that Final Fantasy 14 is suitable for solo players. MrHappy even thinks that MMOs can learn a lot from Square Enix’s MMORPG.

Zepla expresses the thought that creating new paths for solo players is crucial for the growth of the MMO genre, while Quazii finds it difficult to find a title comparable to Final Fantasy XIV in terms of its single-player story.

The entry into Final Fantasy XIV certainly has some hurdles. Players need to learn numerous game mechanics and classes before they can dive into the challenging content like dungeons and raids.

Especially for new players, it is helpful when experienced players share previously acquired knowledge. But even seasoned players can always learn something new. Good preparation is not only crucial for solo players.

Destiny 2: Nightmare Containment offers more loot than you think – Here’s how to find the additional treasure chests

In Destiny 2, most players have already completed the seasonal activity “Nightmare Containment” multiple times. But have you opened all the secret doors on the Derelict Leviathan? If not, you may have missed out on some loot. MeinMMO reveals how to find these extra treasure chests.

During the “Season of the Haunted,” Guardians in Destiny 2 can currently play “Nightmare Containment,” a free public event. It is one of the seasonal activities on the Derelict Leviathan and grants a regular loot chest at level 3.

What kind of extra treasure chests are there? In addition to this regular loot from level 3, there are also extra hidden treasure chests to be found during the Nightmare Containment activity that are not so easily discoverable.

These additional loot chests are behind locked doors that players must first search for. They can only be opened when players receive the prompt “Lock protocols in the Castell have been temporarily suspended” at the lower left corner of the screen.

This is what the prompt looks like when the secret doors open.

MeinMMO tells you how you can lift this lock protocol and especially where you can find the additional loot chests.

The public event “Nightmare Containment” on the Derelict Leviathan.

How to lift the lock protocol of the Nightmare Containment?

In order to lift the lock protocol, you must first play the activity “Nightmare Containment” up to level 3.

  • When you reach level 3 of the Nightmare Containment and defeat the boss, a 2-minute timer starts.
  • Now the lock protocol is lifted, and the message “Lock protocols in the Castell have been temporarily suspended” appears.
  • The prompt at the lower left of the screen informs you how many chests you can now find and open.

Here’s how to find the five secret doors

There are a total of five of these secret doors in the Castell on the Derelict Leviathan. They are quite hidden in niches, but still recognizable by the red lights. Each door also has a switch that you must activate to open it.

Once you know how many doors are unlocked for you at level 3, you can use the two-minute timer to find out which of them are open.

Whoever opens the secret door discovers a hidden loot chest.

Pay attention to the visual and audio cues: To make it easier, Bungie has added visual markers for you. Additionally, the switches of the doors emit a consistent beep that you can hear as you get closer.

Despite all these clues, it’s good to know where you need to run. Because the Leviathan is huge, and the time to open the secret chests is limited.

All locations of the secret doors in the Castell:

  • 1 Door: Left side next to the boss area of the Nightmare Containment in a side room
  • 2 Door: Right side next to the boss area of the Nightmare Containment in a side room
  • 3 Door: From the Castell spawn point immediately to the left
  • 4 Door: Above the round central area at the exit leading to the Gardens of Desire
  • 5 Door: Left of the spawn, near the curved ramp that leads downward

Destiny 2 players have already created a map of the Derelict Leviathan, where you can also see the locations of the secret doors.

By the way: Behind one of these secret doors is also a bobblehead of Calus that you need to complete the seasonal quest triumph “Biggest Fan” and the Season title “Reaper.” If you discover all the bobbleheads, the triumph rewards you with the “Eidolon” ghost shell.

Have you already discovered all the secret chests and picked up the extra loot? What do you think of the activity itself? Does the strong Season 17 storyline with the interesting event voicelines about exploring the “Duality of Existence” captivate you, or do you find it boring? Feel free to let us know in the comments.

School trains 3,117 witchers, must now close – Apparently due to a single woman

In Poland, there is a school that has been training live-action role players like Geralt of Rivia, the Witcher, since 2015. This was done for 7 years with a license from CD Projekt Red. But that is now over. The reason for losing the license appears to be the connections of a lawyer associated with the school to a Polish think tank with radical political views.

That was the idea of the school:

  • The idea of the school was for people to arrive and experience a completely immersive experience as if they were attending a school where they are trained to become a Witcher.
  • The school advertised that the experience was like in a movie, only that you could influence the events. They even guaranteed “real emotions” (via witcherschool)
  • One day at the school included class hours, lessons in archery or sword fighting, and of course the all-important monster lore.

School must close – loses the license

This is what the school says: In a Facebook post from the Witcher School, it is stated (via fb):

“It has been 7 wonderful years, 40 organized outings, many hundreds of participants worked on the event, 3,117 trained Witchers from 54 countries participated, and at least 2,841 monsters were slain.”

They started as children fighting with sticks and never expected that their own Witcher school would come of it.

Company believes false reports are to blame

Why is this ending now? The post sounds like a farewell because it is one: CD Projekt Red has revoked the license from the company behind the school.

As stated in a company statement (via FB), they lost the license because the wife of one of the founders worked as a lawyer to draft a licensing agreement with CD Projekt Red.

Additionally, the woman worked as a lawyer for various organizations, including “Ordo Iuris”, an “association with right-wing and Catholic views,” as described by the Witcher School.

In March 2022, an article appeared claiming that the lawyer was working simultaneously for the Witcher School and for Ordo Iuris. The school states that this is not true, as the lawyer has not worked for the Witcher School since 2019, but at the time the report with this claim came out, CD Projekt Red revoked the school’s license to the Witcher.

They wanted to clarify this with CD Projekt Red, but no agreement was reached. The Witcher School itself does not want to interfere in the private matters of its employees.

CD Projekt Red says: No comment

What does CD Projekt Red say? In a statement to Eurogamer, it is said that the cooperation was terminated in February, and three months later the deadline expired. They do not want to comment further on the matter.

Founder’s wife worked for think tank opposing abortion and LGBTQ+ rights

What is the problem now? What the Witcher School refers to as an organization with “Catholic views,” Ordo Iuris, is a controversial think tank that has earned a reputation as an organization opposed to abortion, LGBTQ+ rights, and divorce.

Apparently, CD Projekt Red, which is itself in the crosshairs of public opinion, wanted no connection to such an organization – even if the connection is tenuous. The school also emphasizes in its statements that the lawyer is just one of hundreds of contributors and she has had nothing to do with the school for years.

The school apparently believes that press articles that established this connection have calculated this to lead to the closure now.

The Witcher studio, CD Projekt Red, is itself struggling with some problems:

Blizzard says the new social contract for WoW is “just the beginning”

In World of Warcraft there are many changes coming – and we are not talking about updates and expansions. The game is supposed to become less toxic, more welcoming for everyone. To achieve this, Blizzard has devised new rules and will soon require everyone to sign their “Social Contract.”

How will WoW become more enjoyable? Back in April, dataminers discovered that there will be a Social Contract in WoW. This mandates your signature and acknowledgment that there are certain behavioral rules in the MMORPG.

At its core, it states exactly what the terms of service say: Be nice and friendly to others, do not behave like an axe in the woods, and do not insult anyone. Now Blizzard promises in a blog post even more.

Among other things, the reporting system is set to improve. If you report a player to penalize toxic behavior, you will receive a thank-you email from Blizzard. If the player is punished, you will get another email.

If you have been reported yourself, you will also receive a message with information about it.

What does this mean for me? There isn’t a really big change, even though it sounds like a lot. When you log in, you will be greeted by the new contract that you must then sign – similar to terms of service and EULA.

The rules are not new but have always had to be followed. So you do not have to pay more attention than you already do; it just emphasizes them once again.

The reporting system is supposed to be a bit easier. After right-clicking on the player’s name and selecting the “Report Player” option, a popup appears. There you can, similar to a ticket, select a category and provide additional information for the report.

“This is just the beginning”

What else is coming? Blizzard talks about these measures being just the first step to making World of Warcraft better. It says:

These updates are just the beginning of our efforts to create a better place for you to spend your time. We know Azeroth is special for many of you, and we want to ensure it remains a place you call home.

It’s also about further improving the reporting system, but there is no concrete information yet about additional measures.

In our podcast, we discuss the pitfalls Blizzard is encountering – Can the new rules change the tone of interaction?

When will all this go live? Some of the changes are already in place, such as an improvement to the reporting system. More improvements and the Social Contract with the upcoming Patch 9.2.5, which will be released on June 1.

Signing the Social Contract will soon be mandatory if you want to play and will also be necessary for the upcoming expansion Dragonflight. Dragonflight is the next expansion after Shadowlands. We do not know exactly when it will be released – first, Season 4 is expected to come out in the summer:

Pokémon GO: Research Breakthrough in June 2022 with Klikk – Is it worth it?

In Pokémon GO, you can expect an encounter with Klikk as part of the research breakthrough in June. We at MeinMMO examined whether this Pokémon is worth it.

What is the research breakthrough? By spinning PokéStops, you receive so-called field research tasks that you can complete. These will be displayed in the “Field” view in the game and can also be redeemed there.

If you complete at least one of these tasks for 7 days, you will receive an additional reward in the form of the research breakthrough. In June, you can encounter Klikk. You can track your progress using the stamps above the field research tasks.

Research breakthrough with Klikk – Duration & Shiny

How long will Klikk be available in the research breakthrough? On June 1, 2022, at 10:00 PM local time, Klikk will replace the previous Pokémon Alola-Sleima in the research breakthrough. It will be available until July 1, 2022, at 10:00 PM local time.

What kind of Pokémon is Klikk? Klikk is a Steel-type Pokémon from Generation 5. It evolves into Klikdiklak through Kliklak. Visually, it resembles two silver gears that rotate and interlock. Outside of the research breakthrough, Klikk is usually only obtainable from 10 km eggs or occasionally from Level 1 raids.

Can you catch Shiny Klikk? Yes, Klikk is also available in its shiny form in the game. You can recognize it by its golden color.

Klikk normal (left) and shiny (right)

Is the research breakthrough with Klikk worth it?

How strong is Klikk: Klikk is not particularly strong for a Steel-type Pokémon. Its two evolutions are also not among the best attackers in Pokémon GO. They do not play a role in raids and PvP battles.

Is Klikk still worth it? Although Klikk and its evolutions are not the best monsters in the game, the research breakthrough is still worth it. This small Pokémon is not so easy to obtain in the game, as it does not spawn in the wild and only occasionally hatches from 10 km eggs or can be found in Level 1 raids.

So if you want to register Klikk or its evolutions in your PokéDex, this is an opportunity to gather a few candies you need for evolving. Additionally, with a bit of luck, you may even have the chance to encounter a shiny version.

What do you think about the research breakthrough in June? Feel free to share your opinion here on MeinMMO in the comments!

In the coming weeks, there will be a lot happening in Pokémon GO. We will show you all the events that you can expect in June and which ones are particularly worth it.

Fortnite: Live event has an official date – „Collision” will be the grand finale of Season 2, Chapter 3

Fortnite will host the big live event “Collision” next week to close Season 2, Chapter 3. We’ll show you all the important information, the date, and how to participate here.

When does the Fortnite live event take place? The live event “Collision” will take place on June 4, 2022. It starts at 10:00 PM. How long it will last is still unknown – in the past, it has usually been around a quarter to half an hour.

How can I participate? Basically, anyone who plays Fortnite can join the event. You just need to be there on time: to be safe, you should log into the game at least 30 minutes before the event starts – the playlist for the event should be unlocked then.

In the past, there have been issues due to full servers when joining later. Therefore, punctuality pays off.

Important: The event only takes place once and only at this time.

How many players do I need? The announcement mentions “teams of four players”. However, it is expected that there will also be the opportunity to team up with random players during the event. At least that was the case in previous events.

But what can we expect in the event?

Collision ends Season 2, Chapter 3 in Fortnite

What kind of event is this? The title Collision is likely related to the clashing organizations the “Seven” and the “IO”. Their conflict has been ongoing throughout the season and is expected to reach a new level in the event.

Because: Previous events in Fortnite have been “big” and often brought significant changes – such as a complete flooding of the map or flipping the island.

The official description states that the “fate of the Zero Point” will be decided. Accordingly, there should be quite some action in “Collision”.

That was a huge event back then:

Start video

What is already known? There isn’t too much information about the content yet. Leaks have suggested that it could possibly go to outer space.

In addition, two objects are known that will likely play a significant role:

  • Currently, there is a huge tower on the map, the “Collider”, which regularly shoots laser beams into the sky. This appears to be the ultimate weapon of the IO.

von Christos Tsogos

You should also receive a reward if you log into the game on June 4 starting at 2:00 PM: a loading screen and lobby music.

Furthermore, after the event, the current battle pass will also end. This is important if you still have resources to spend.

What should I do before the season ends? Make sure to spend any remaining battle stars from the battle pass on the rewards you want. Otherwise, they will be “automatically” redeemed for the rewards in the pass at the end of the season – in chronological order. Then it can happen that stars are spent on rewards from the first pages, although you actually saved for the later pages.

Additionally, you should spend your chips for the Omni sword. Otherwise, they will just expire.

Last but not least: Level up as much as you can – in case you want to grab some of the rewards from the battle pass.
