Non-skippable intros still occur in games today. They are annoying and often take a long time. Halo Infinite also has such a video. However, players have now found a way to bypass the intro.
What is the problem? Often, video games have intro videos and sequences before landing in the main menu. Most are short or can be skipped.
But there are exceptions, and sometimes these intro videos consist of elaborate, lengthy clips. It may happen that they cannot be skipped.
Thus, every time you start the game, you have to watch this scene. It may not be so bad the first 10 times, but when you start the game for the hundredth time, it just gets on your nerves.
So it is with Halo Infinite and its intro scene, which is why players have sought a way to get rid of this scene. In this case, Twitter user Jason Lamb, who is also a developer, made a funny discovery.
You can delete or replace the Halo Infinite intro
How can you get rid of the intro video? The intro video is quite easy to find, but you can not only remove it entirely. You can also replace it with another video. Twitter user Jason Lamb made and shared this discovery.
He replaced the actual intro with another, much shorter video, in this case from Shrek:

How exactly does this work? The entire intro, including the loading screen, is just a video that plays every time. It can be found in the files and can be replaced by any other clip. (via Steam)
For this, you need to go to Steam in the corresponding folder of your Steam library: …/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Halo Infinite/videos
There, you need to replace the MP4 file with another one.
This is called “Startup_Sequence_Loading.mp4”
You can simply record a 1-second video and put it in there, for example. Or, like Jason Lamb, a silly video of your choice.
Does this also work if I downloaded Halo Infinite from the Xbox Store? Unfortunately, it does not. Players cannot directly access the folder where Halo Infinite is stored (WindowsApps) and cannot make changes.
Fans are having a lot of fun with this and are already thinking about which videos they want to use to replace the intro.
From old Halo soundtracks from parts 1 and 2 to Metal Gear Solid, they share various ideas. The opening from Mortal Kombat from 1995 is also among the suggestions.
What do you think about this? Which videos would you use? Share your ideas and suggestions with us!

In Call of Duty: Warzone the controversial streamer Dr Disrespect recently had no fun at all. He was eliminated by players whom he referred to as “jobless idiots with no life.” What exactly upset him so much and what is behind it, you will find out here on MeinMMO.
Who is Dr Disrespect? Behind the choleric macho dude with the porn mustache, mirrored sunglasses, and mullet hair is the person Guy Beahm. He was once a community manager and map designer for Call of Duty.
The “Doc” is an exaggerated character, a toxic macho who behaves like a rowdy and basically insults everything and everyone. With this, he aims to parody and satirize various gamer clichés. Nevertheless, there has been trouble concerning him and his statements and actions before.
So it is also with his latest statements about the player base of CoD Warzone. According to him, it is only jobless idiots with no life.

What got him so worked up: The Doc was once again in the Warzone, where he wanted to deliver “violence, speed, and momentum” to his enemies in line with his motto.
But that didn’t happen, and the Doc was instead taken out by an opponent, and there was no future for the Doc in the Gulag either.

This got him quite upset because it was a Monday morning, and a certain kind of players are out then. With froth at the mouth, he ranted:
There are literally no new people playing Warzone anymore. It’s really just cockroaches and jobless idiots with no life playing the game. It is so! It is so damn pathetic. Especially on a Monday! There are so many unemployed. They are unemployed on purpose, they are so damn lazy! You know who I’m talking about! They are 42-year-olds still living in their mom’s basement and out of shape. It is pathetic!
What does he mean by that: The big problem for the Doc seems to be that the player base in the Warzone has stagnated in recent months. Those who still play regularly in the Warzone despite the mass exodus of players to other battle royales, like Apex Legends, are fairly experienced within the game.
This means it is a challenge to compete against such players every time. New players would be easy prey for the Doc, and he could take them out with his characteristic play of “violence, speed, and momentum”.
Instead, it seems experienced “sweats” are his typical enemies. Or stream snipers, because the Doc later raged even more and continued to insult his opponents for having nothing better to do than stream sniper him as a poor victim.
Is there still hope for the Doc? Indeed, because the Warzone will soon undergo changes and get a completely new map in the Pacific. It is quite likely that a large number of players will return or newcomers will start playing the Warzone. Then the poor Doc would have enough helpless victims again to boost his ego.

The best-selling graphics card on Amazon is currently a 7-year-old GPU. And this bestseller for Black Friday clearly shows how frustrating the current situation is for gamers.
However, the bad prices still don’t prevent users from buying hardware on Amazon. Because the best-selling graphics card on Amazon at this time (as of 11/24/2021) is the Radeon R7 240. This is an entry-level graphics card that originally came out in October 2013.
What’s particularly absurd is that the graphics card is not even discounted on Black Friday and yet dominates the best-seller list on Amazon in the graphics card category.
Yet this current bestseller clearly shows that the current situation for gamers interested in hardware is no joy. This is also evidenced by a look at the specs of the Radeon R7 240.
Oops, unfortunately this affiliate widget is no longer available.
The best-selling graphics card can’t handle top titles with high details
What can the graphics card even do? The R7 240 is an entry-level graphics card from 2013, which later received a re-release. But that’s not enough to really game with.
Top titles from 2020 like Detroit: Become Human, Red Dead Redemption 2, or Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order run at HD resolution (720p) and low graphics settings at just under 20 FPS. And anyone who has ever played a game at 20 FPS knows how close that is to being unplayable.
The current top 5 graphics cards on Amazon.de (as of 11/24/2021 at 11 AM).
Games that rely on faster reaction times, such as shooters, can be forgotten with this hardware. A YouTuber tested 8 games with an R7 240, and in the video, you can see how much the graphics card can handle in combination with a mid-range processor.

YouTube video shows the performance of an R7 240 in top titles
Who is such a graphics card even aimed at? Such low-end graphics cards are primarily aimed at users who need a graphics solution for their computer because the processor does not come with an integrated graphics chip. For demanding gaming, the integrated video memory is also far too small.
Hardware shortage and high prices leave gamers desperate
This is the current situation: Although a graphics card that is around 7 years old being the best-selling GPU on Amazon seems strange, it reflects the current situation of gamers. Because at this time, several factors are making it difficult for gamers who want to buy a graphics card or decent hardware:
Due to the Corona pandemic, too few semiconductors are currently being produced. For this reason, there are currently too few semiconductors for graphics cards, consoles, and many other devices.
The little hardware that is actually available for purchase is then really expensive. Because either retailers already charge a lot of money, or so-called scalpers add a hefty markup to a graphics card.
As a third problem, crypto miners are also targeting graphics cards. Because cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin are currently very valuable.
At this point in time, there are few sensible alternatives for gamers
What alternatives are there? On one hand, gamers can buy older or used hardware. MeinMMO author Benedikt Schlotmann bought a 6-year-old graphics card for a gaming PC and was positively surprised by the performance. However, for some, this may come with many uncertainties and therefore not be an option.
Alternatively, the new next-gen consoles, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, are an option, as they offer more than enough power for all current top titles. However, availability also throws a wrench into the gaming list.
A third alternative could be processors with an integrated graphics chip. AMD’s new Ryzen processors with graphics chip are a good alternative for gamers looking for a reasonable alternative to a dedicated graphics card. Especially for bridging the current shortage phase, such a combo processor is currently worthwhile.
In Fortnite, crossovers have been continuously released for some time. The community welcomes these with open arms, but a YouTuber is speaking out against it. PewDiePie is not at all okay with it and we from MeinMMO will show you why.
What happened? Fortnite has been releasing many crossovers for a while now. From Batman- to fashion collaborations, everything is represented. Players who are fans of such series or labels are really into it and are excited to see their beloved idols or favorite characters in action.
PewDiePie, who also actively plays Fortnite, observed Epic’s actions closely. Now he has had enough of the crossovers and expressed his displeasure in a funny way to his viewers.
Fortnite destroys the magic behind the ninja world
PewDiePie understands the reasoning behind why Epic sees it as a good idea. However, he still does not accept the entry of ninjas into the Fortnite world because it ruins his childhood.

Naruto exists in a ninja world ruled by power-hungry people. In the anime, battles are fought either with throwing knives or special techniques known as “Jutsus”. These techniques are made possible through physical energy, called “Chakra”.
Thanks to Fortnite, now not only Naruto, but the whole Team 7 is on the map, running around with assault rifles to make the island unsafe. This ruins the overall image of the anime.
It’s not just about Naruto: The famous YouTuber PewDiePie expressed himself about not only Naruto but also about Halo and Superman. He understands that the Halo crossover is still acceptable, even if the setting does not fit.
He at least had a weapon and used it against opponents. But guns just don’t fit Superman and Naruto.
This also includes fashion collaborations, like for example, the one with Balenciaga. The YouTuber wonders what target audience that should have. A teenager can hardly afford a white sweater that is sold for $550. These sweaters also have absolutely nothing special about them, just a plain print of both brands.
Additionally, he adds that if Fortnite ever plans an IKEA collab, he would be done with the game.
What does the community think about it? Under his video, opinions are quite diverse. Some players feel the same way as PewDiePie. Other players still think that the efforts have paid off.
A player commented, for example, under the video with the following statement:
I honestly found the skins just right and well done, as well as the emotes and all. But ninjas and assault rifles? Lol.
This certainly hits the nail on the head. Epic’s efforts in creating the skins have borne fruit, and players celebrated the collab, yet the question remains whether every crossover should really make it into the Fortnite world.
What do you think? Do you find the Naruto skins successful, and do you not care that Kakashi is running around with an assault rifle? Or do you also think that this destroys the image of the ninja world? Let us know!

PlayStation boss Jim Ryan criticized the company Activision-Blizzard (Call of Duty, WoW, Diablo) a week ago for how they are handling their sexism crisis. Now, a former employee of Sony in California has filed a lawsuit against her former employer. She feels unfairly treated because of her gender.
This is the situation:
Activision Blizzard has been in a sexism scandal since 2021. A California agency sued the company for allegedly paying and treating women worse than men.
Sony expressed “deep concern” about events at Activision Blizzard
This is what the PlayStation boss said about Kotick: The website Bloomberg has seen an internal email from PlayStation boss Jim Ryan, in which he responded to Activision Blizzard’s reaction to an accusatory article from the Wall Street Journal.
The email states that Sony had contacted Activision immediately, expressed its “deep concern,” and inquired how they plan to respond to the allegations in the article.
Furthermore, the email states that they do not believe the statements were the right reaction to address the situation.
We have discussed the situation surrounding the CEO of Activision Blizzard in detail in a podcast:

Analyst says she was overlooked for promotions and fired
This is now the lawsuit against Sony: An IT security analyst, Emma Majo, worked for Sony PlayStation. According to the site Axios, she filed a lawsuit on Monday, claiming she was discriminated against because of her gender and unlawfully terminated for speaking out against “discrimination against women” at Sony.
She is now trying to convince the court to expand her case into a class action lawsuit against Sony PlayStation.
It states:
Sony discriminates against female employees in pay and promotions. Women at Sony are forced to work in a workplace culture dominated by men.
Specific allegations include a manager ignoring her and only responding to men. She was overlooked for promotions and terminated in 2021 after complaining about discrimination at Sony.
According to the analyst’s statements, other female employees have also had difficulty being promoted.
Is Sony now in the same situation as Blizzard? No, that is a different category. The lawsuit against Activision Blizzard came from an agency that has conducted investigations against Activision Blizzard for years and has conducted many interviews. When the lawsuit became public, many current and former female employees of Blizzard expressed on Twitter that there is substance to the lawsuit.
The lawsuit against Sony has hardly made waves so far. Nevertheless, it remains to be seen what judgment the court will come to in the case of the lawsuit.
MyMMO editor-in-chief Leya Jankowski has addressed the situation of Bobby Kotick in a column:
Genshin Impact not only hosts tricky puzzles and dangerous monsters but also achievements. Similar to PlayStation or Steam, you can collect achievements by mastering various tasks in the game. MeinMMO shows you 8 secret achievements and how you can easily obtain them.
Since the game starts giving you fewer Primogems after a while, it might be worth it to earn achievements. Currently, you can earn a total of 530 achievements and thus 4,325 Primogems (via Genshin Wiki).
Where can you find the achievements? On PC, you can access the menu via ESC, and on PlayStation via the Options button, where you can find the “Achievements” sub-menu. The achievements are divided into different categories.
When you click on a category, you can view the details of the achievements. However, there are secret achievements that you can only see once you’ve actually achieved them. They will not be listed beforehand.
We show you 8 of these secret achievements in the following list and what you need to do to achieve them.
[toc]
1. Achievement: “A Praise to the Belly”
How do you get the achievement? You must have a team of four characters for this achievement. Then you need to fill them up with self-cooked dishes until they are full.
You can see their saturation by the smiley under the characters. When it is red, the heroes are sufficiently filled. Once you have filled all 4 characters, you will receive the achievement.
How much Primogems do you get for the achievement? After obtaining the achievement, you can claim 10 Primogems in the “World of Wonders” category.
Your characters’ health points can be filled during the process, you can still stuff them with food.
2. Achievement: “Anyone Can Be a Gourmet”
How do you get the achievement? You can also achieve this by wasting food.
Do it like Raiden Shogun and prepare a failed dish ten times. Since cooking in Genshin Impact is very easy, you might not have unlocked this simple achievement yet.
For this, it’s best to choose a dish that doesn’t cost you too many valuable materials: Teyvat Fried Egg or the Steak.
How much Primogems do you get for the achievement? After obtaining the achievement, you can claim 5 Primogems in the “World of Wonders” category.
You don’t have to wait until the timer reaches the end when cooking, you can hit the button to finish cooking early outside the yellow field.
3. Achievement: “Penalty Kick”
How do you get the achievement? You must ensure that a Hilichurl cannot dig up a Pyro Slime. This happens when he is standing in knee-deep water.
The easiest way is to teleport to the Statue of The Seven in Dihua Marsh in Liyue. Then head east of the statue, towards Sal Terrae. After the two larger green islands on the map, there’s a smaller one where you’ll find a Hilichurl who is unsuccessfully digging for a Pyro Slime.
He will easily grant you the achievement “Penalty Kick”.
How much Primogems do you get for the achievement? After obtaining the achievement, you can claim 5 Primogems in the “World of Wonders” category.
The Hilichurl in red will grant you the achievement.
4. Achievement: “All Uninvolved Machines Please Leave the Area Immediately!”
How do you get the achievement? When you face the world boss “Perpetual Mechanical Array” in Inazuma, the boss will eventually fall to the ground and summon its Ruin Guards. You must not defeat them.
Normally, you attack the Ruin Guard that has a yellow circle around it. This time, however, do not do that. Ignore the Ruin Guards until the boss recovers and you can attack him again.
If you defeat the “Perpetual Mechanical Array” without destroying a Ruin Guard, you will get the achievement.
How much Primogems do you get for the achievement? After obtaining the achievement, you can claim 10 Primogems in the “World of Wonders” category.
If the Ruin Guards annoy you, take a character who can provide a protective shield. Noelle, Diona, and Zhongli are suitable candidates.
5. Achievement: “Hello… Is Anyone There?”
How do you get the achievement? You need to find a hidden door in Ritou in Inazuma. When you use the middle teleporter in Ritou, head south.
Keep walking behind all the houses in the town until you come across a lone one in the greenery. Behind this house is the secret door that grants you the achievement along with a quest.
The quest rewards you with Adventure EXP, EXP cards, and 20,000 Mora.
How much Primogems do you get for the achievement? After obtaining the achievement, you can claim 5 Primogems in the “World of Wonders” category.
The door is located directly behind the house.
6. Achievement: “Is This One of the Four Winds?”
How do you get the achievement? You must defeat an Anemo Damage Dealer after triggering all of its elemental transformations. It sounds complicated, but you just need to have 4 characters of different elements:
Hydro
Cryo
Electro
Pyro
The Anemo Damage Dealer will eventually use an attack that briefly grants it a shield. Counter with an attack that deals elemental damage to break the shield.
You do this four times with the 4 different characters, then you can defeat it to receive the achievement.
How much Primogems do you get for the achievement? After obtaining the achievement, you can claim 5 Primogems in the “World of Wonders” category.
The Anemo Damage Dealer holds the shield right in front of it and it can only take one hit.
7. Achievement: “Dry Cleaning”
How do you get the achievement? To get this achievement, you must defeat the Hydro Hypostasis without destroying the slimes it creates.
You should only defeat the slimes when the Hydro Hypostasis wants to restore health points.
How much Primogems do you get for the achievement? After obtaining the achievement, you can claim 10 Primogems in the “World of Wonders” category.
How do you get the achievement? You need to get hit by three consecutive mimic attacks of the Pyro Hypostasis and then defeat it. You recognize this combination by the following sequence:
First, the Hypostasis performs a kind of bull,
then it disappears into the ground and rises up like a dolphin,
finally, it becomes a ball, which dissolves into a vortex of fire butterflies.
The achievement counts if you get hit, even though you are protected by a shield, like Zhongli.
If you’re not sure what the Hypostasis combination looks like, walk around a bit and let it perform attacks. You will recognize the combo at the latest when the butterfly vortex appears.
How much Primogems do you get for the achievement? After obtaining the achievement, you can claim 5 Primogems in the “World of Wonders” category.
The beginning of the combination of mimic attacks is made by this bull.
If you farm all the achievements on this list, you will receive a total of 55 Primogems as a reward.
Were you able to discover any achievements from this list that you haven’t obtained yet, or did you already know them all? Feel free to let us know in the comments.
The Golden Joystick Awards 2021 have finally decided a question that has been circling the gamer community for years: namely, what the best gaming platform is. This has now been officially confirmed: According to the Golden Joystick Awards, the PC is the pinnacle of gaming hardware of all time!
What are the Golden Joystick Awards? Since 1983, awards for games and gaming-related topics have been presented every year as part of the Golden Joystick Awards. Voting takes place online and everyone can participate. The ceremony took place on November 23, 2021.
The event was presented by actors Nolan North and Emily Rose, who portray the characters Nathan Drake and Elena Fisher in the Uncharted series, among others.
In addition to the best games in various genres, there are also awards for fundamental topics, such as best storytelling or for hardware. There was an interesting new category in 2021.
PlayStation 5 wins Hardware Award 2021, but the PC is the best of all time
What did the PS5 win? In the category “Best Gaming Hardware,” this year the PlayStation 5 won. Last year, it was the RTX 3080 graphics card. But those who are already celebrating as PS5 fans and seeing the current PlayStation as the best hardware need to read the list of awards to the end.
Why is the PC still the pinnacle? Because at the end of the list, there is a new category in 2021 that awards the ultimate game of the year, the ultimate game of all time, and the ultimate hardware of all time. And for hardware, the PC was chosen as the pinnacle of all time.
The award was accepted by Valve head Gabe Newell. In his brief speech, he stated that players and developers alike have benefited enormously from the many innovations in PC gaming hardware.
After all, the PC has been a gaming platform for decades, and a fully equipped gaming PC still beats any console in terms of performance and presentation.
What else was awarded? The Ultimate Game of the Year (and best PS5 game) was Resident Evil Village, while Hitman 3 was named the best PC game. Psychonauts 2 won the award for Xbox, and the Mobile LoL Wild Rift is the best mobile game of 2021. The top game of all time is actually Dark Souls.
The best studio in 2021 is Capcom, from which Resident Evil also originates. This also fits with the award for best actress, which Maggie Robertson received for her performance as vampire lady Dimitrescu in Resident Evil Village.
So much for the Golden Joystick Awards 2021. What do you think of the selection? Would you have voted differently? Then let us know in the comments here.
Many trainers in Pokémon GO rely on their Mega Evolutions in battles. A new one of these monsters has now been found, which is expected to come to the game soon. We looked at what kind of monster it is and show you the reactions from the community.
What is a Mega Evolution? For some time now, there has been the opportunity in Pokémon GO to temporarily evolve certain monsters. These evolutions are somewhat stronger, which is why they are primarily used in raids and Rocket battles.
However, the list of these Mega Monsters is currently limited. However, the PokeMiners, a group of dataminers, have discovered a new Mega Evolution in the game code.
Who are the PokeMiners? The PokeMiners are a group of dataminers who regularly search for new information in the game code. They then share their findings with other trainers and publish them via their channels on social media.
Although their findings have often been confirmed in the past, they are not official information. Therefore, changes to the content can be made by Niantic at any time, or the content may not even make it into the game.
This Mega Evolution has been found
The PokeMiners have stumbled upon a new Mega Evolution in their latest search of the game code of Pokémon GO. They have now shared their findings through their channels on Twitter and Reddit. Accordingly, you might soon encounter Mega Steelix in Mega Raids.

However, the individual stats of the monster have not yet been determined by the PokeMiners. According to the comments, they are expected to look like this according to Pokebattler (via twitter.com):
Defense: 181
Attack: 212
Defense: 327
Mega Steelix can temporarily evolve from the Steel and Ground Pokémon Steelix. To do this, you need a certain amount of Mega Energy, which you can obtain by winning in the corresponding Mega Raids. An evolution lasts for several hours.
If Mega Steelix comes to the game, it will mark the first time that the Steel and Ground types are represented in Mega Evolutions. Therefore, only the Rock type would be missing.
How the community reacts to Mega Steelix
The community is somewhat split regarding the PokeMiners’ current find. Some trainers are excited about such a release. For instance, broad3000 writes on Twitter “Perfect! If it becomes available, I can finally evolve my 100% [Steelix] into a Mega” and shows a picture of the mentioned monster (via twitter.com).
But the appearance of the Mega Evolution also excites players. RyanSwag writes, “It is definitely one of the coolest-looking Megas” (via twitter.com).
Candy Bonus: Another advantage of Mega Evolution is the Candy Bonus you get from other monsters of the type. If you have evolved a Pokémon into a Mega, you receive an extra candy for catching the same type during that time.
For this reason, some trainers like Nplumb are excited about extra candies when using a Meltan box (via reddit.com)
Strength of the monster: However, there is also criticism of Mega Steelix. While cup_of_plates is looking forward to the monster, they find its strength disappointing: “Pretty exciting to see Mega Steelix. It looks decent, and I like it. Too bad it won’t be very useful in PoGo, but I think it will be released.” (via reddit.com).
Mega Steelix is unlikely to be very strong. This is mainly due to its moveset. sirlight282 agrees: “Steel and Ground Mega Boost is nice, I think. However, it doesn’t change the fact that Mega Steelix is quite weak for PvE on its own. Edit: I just realized it doesn’t even have a fast Ground attack; it’s worse than I thought” (via reddit.com).
For this reason, according to some trainers, it is rather boring, as they would have preferred to hope for other Mega Evolutions.
What trainers hope for
Since only one Mega Pokémon of the Rock type is missing after the release of Mega Steelix, some trainers express their wishes. BazF91 hopes for Mega Aerodactyl, Mega Tyranitar, or Mega Diancie (via reddit.com). Diancie is a Pokémon from the 6th generation of Rock and Fairy type, and it has not yet been available in its normal form in the game.
Diancie (left) and Mega Diancie (right) via pokemon.com
Ben_Faulstick is confident about which monsters will come: “I expect that we will receive Steelix in the first half of December and Mega Glaceon towards the end of the year.” (via twitter.com).
When it will ultimately be the case and which monsters will specifically appear in the game cannot be said at the moment, so it remains to be seen. As soon as Niantic comments on this, you will of course find out about it here on MeinMMO.
What do you think of the current find by the PokeMiners? Would you be excited for Mega Steelix? What monster would you like to see in its Mega Evolution? Please share your opinion with us here on MeinMMO in the comments and discuss with other trainers.
Call of Duty: Vanguard has been on the market for almost 3 weeks and is still plagued by some unfair bugs. One of the worst bugs in the game allows good players to frequently access the best killstreaks.
This is what it’s about:
Killstreaks are rewards in Call of Duty for many kills without dying
This gives you strong advantages that secure even more kills
Due to a bug in the game, it is very easy to frequently unlock the 3rd and best killstreak
Field Upgrade Destroys Killstreak Balance
Those who fight through the matches of Call of Duty: Vanguard with full dedication are often rewarded with killstreaks. A UAV here, a glide bomb there – this way you can secure strong advantages with just a few consecutive kills.
However, if you achieve 9 or 10 consecutive kills, it’s time for the big guns:
Tank with flamethrower
Dog squad attacks enemies
Incendiary bombs blanket the battlefield
If an opponent activates these strong streaks, even the best cover usually doesn’t help against a death. Now imagine if you could ensure that you receive these advantages time and again, but only need one kill instead of 10. The field upgrade “Dead Drop” makes it possible.
What does the field upgrade “Dead Drop” do? With it, you can secure the progress of your current killstreak. For example, if you have collected 4 kills in a row and realize that your situation is hopeless, you can activate the field upgrade and start with a 4-kill streak after your next respawn.
However, you should not be able to achieve the consumed killstreaks anymore.
The glitch with “Dead Drop”: We will refrain from giving a detailed explanation of the bug at this point. However, together with the field upgrade “Dead Drop”, strong players can currently organize the best killstreaks with just one kill.
For this, the killstreak must be unlocked beforehand. However, after its use, you only need one kill to unlock another use of the extremely strong war machines.
Will this stay? The bug is severe and also favors strong players. The already difficult killstreak balance is completely thrown off.
You can expect that the developers will soon address the glitch. However, at the moment there is no statement about a possible fix, and the error has not yet been noted on the developers’ Trello board (via trello.com). On the board, you can check which issues the developers are currently working on.
Currently, there are still quite a few things in the game that are too strong – aside from the killstreaks. Some weapon attachments provide such significant advantages that the respective weapons stand far ahead of the competition.
However, there have already been several patches, and overly strong mechanics like the “Vital” attachment have already been weakened or fixed. Which weapon options continue to struggle against good balance can be found here: CoD Vanguard: The best weapons with setups – Season 0 / November 2021

Battlefield developer DICE has expressed itself in a detailed blog post on the official website of Battlefield 2042 regarding the situation, the next update, and the future. MeinMMO summarizes for you what is included in the next patch and what the roadmap looks like after the release.
This is what the blog post is about: DICE comments in detail on the launch of Battlefield 2042 and the issues they want to address. First, the developers thank the players, stating that nearly twice as many are participating as previously at the launch of Battlefield V.
They want to do everything they can to deliver the Battlefield that the players deserve. Additionally, they will thoroughly evaluate whether features from previous Battlefield titles could return. For example, the scoreboard, server browser, and voice chat are highly requested by many fans. However, there are no concrete details on this yet.
However, there were updates about the upcoming update and the overall roadmap. Here you can find the information at a glance.
Update #2 is finally supposed to fix the assault rifle spread, coming tomorrow
This is what DICE says about the next update: After the developers previously commented on Twitter about the next update, there are finally new details. The officially titled Update #2 patch is expected to arrive tomorrow, Thursday, November 25.
The update addresses several significant issues:
The spread of assault rifles and other weapons is expected to be reduced.
The OP hovercraft and the Nightbird helicopter will be adjusted and slightly weakened.
The issue with the spread was a big topic. DICE wrote the following about it:
We have made a number of adjustments to many weapons aimed at significantly reducing the effects of spread on the shooting experience. In other words: after these changes, a well-aimed shot will hit its target within the intended range of the weapon.
Additionally, the progression system for Battlefield Portal and for solo and co-op matches against bots has been reactivated. It had been temporarily disabled because players were using the mode to boost their levels and quickly reach the maximum.
Now they have reactivated the system after making some modifications. DICE will continue to monitor farming servers and keep an eye on the issue.
Then it was about update #3 and how things will proceed.
Roadmap and Update #3
When is Update #3 coming? According to DICE, the third update is expected to come in early December and will include some changes and further fixes:
Extensive improvements to the user interface, including enhancements to the weapon attachment menu.
Improvements to matchmaking that are expected to significantly reduce the likelihood of unsuccessful player searches and improved crossplay.
Enhanced progression, including weekly missions and challenges.
Fixes for graphic errors and glitches.
Over 150 fixes for maps.
More editor options for Battlefield Portal and several smaller improvements to weapons, vehicles, and gadgets.
Multiple improvements in Hazard Zone aimed at enhancing the experience.
Optimizations for game modes in All-Out Warfare, Breakthrough, and Conquest.
Fixes and improvements for vehicles, weapons, HUD, and bots.
Furthermore, there are some adjustments and fixes for the specialists. Several gadgets will also be optimized. But not only weapons and gadgets will be tweaked.
With Update #3, which fixes several minor errors, various improvements will also come for our soldiers. For example, bugs triggered by glitches with game physics, in the water, or under other circumstances will be fixed.
A currently prominent example is strange, floating soldiers who are swimming in the air when they try to stab into water:

What is the performance on PC like? DICE has also commented on this. They are aware of the issue and are working on further optimizations, especially for the PC.
This will take more time and will take a while. However, they will “do everything possible in the short term” to improve performance and stabilize frame rates. So far, there are no concrete announcements about it.
What do you think of the announcements? Do you see Battlefield on the right track? Accordingly, you can participate in our survey and discuss with us:
Amazon is on the verge of securing the rights to a “Mass Effect” series. Big things are coming for the fans.
In recent years, fans have been quite lucky with series based on video games. Whether it’s The Witcher, the DOTA series, or recently the worldwide success Arcane based on League of Legends, which is breaking all rating records – times are prosperous. Now, fans can apparently look forward to the adaptation of another legendary video game series: Mass Effect.
What has been revealed? A report from Deadline reveals that Amazon is currently about to “close a deal” and thereby create a series set in the Mass Effect universe. Amazon has previously produced several SciFi series, most recently being responsible for creating the final seasons of the hit “The Expanse.”
What story could the series contain? That is still completely uncertain. As the “Mass Effect” series is based on four massive games, all possessing a rich world with extensive background information, there is plenty of material to choose from. It could classically follow the hero’s journey of Commander Shepard or shed light on the beginnings, such as the “First Contact War.” Or one might focus on specific areas of the universe, like the shady Omega Station, with its seedy nightclubs and thriving drug scene.
The possibilities are countless, and due to the complexity of the universe, there is virtually free choice for a starting point to tell an exciting story.
Mass Effect offers a lot of story and great characters – there is enough material for a series.
When is the series coming out? As the deal is not yet finalized, only speculation can be done. It will certainly take a few years – from securing the rights to writing the story, casting the actors, and the actual filming typically takes several years. Fans should be patient and probably not expect a release in the next 2 or 3 years.
Mass Effect had a film in planning: Interestingly, this news comes shortly after it was announced that there will be no film adaptation of Mass Effect. Legendary Studios has been trying since 2010 to find a suitable spin for a film – but it seemed challenging to condense the rich universe into a suitable story within just 90 to 120 minutes. Something they already struggled with in Warcraft.
As soon as there are more updates or even first images from a “Mass Effect” series, we will of course report on MeinMMO.
Would you be excited for a Mass Effect series? Which part of the story should a series tell, and why should a Volus definitely be the protagonist?
By the way, Mass Effect is not the first video game series that Amazon is planning. Before this, the giant had already secured a legendary game series for a screen adaptation:
With Black Friday, there are many exciting offers on Amazon again. Our article presents you with several ideas and gadgets that can improve or at least ease your gaming experience.
What’s it about: Are you looking for small or large aids for your everyday life, whether you’re working, playing in the evening, or watching movies?
We at MeinMMO present you with several gadgets that can improve your gaming experience. The prices for the gadgets are 15, 40, and 90 Euros.
Who wants to spend 15 Euros – Backlighting for Monitor and TV
Who is it suitable for? Especially if you sit in a dark room in the evening and look at the TV or monitor, it can be exhausting over time. Your eyes tire, and in the long run, this can also lead to headaches and other uncomfortable side effects.
With an indirect light source, you can relieve your eyes and prevent small problems in your everyday life or hobbies:

Alternatively, there is a lamp you can attach directly to the monitor to provide more light on your desk. MeinMMO editor Benedikt Schlotmann tested such a lamp and considers it the most important purchase for his home office in 2021.
Who wants to spend 40 Euros – Orthopedic Seat Cushion
Who is it suitable for? Those who sit a lot at their desk due to work or gaming will appreciate relief for their hips and butt. An ergonomic cushion can make your day-to-day life easier and can adapt to your backside.
MeinMMO editor Benedikt Schlotmann tested the ergonomic cushion from Feela in the home office and was positively surprised. The cushion makes sitting for long periods more comfortable, and a savings for the tailbone prevents unnecessary strain. Additionally, the cushion has a washable cover and different firmness levels.

Our recommendation does not replace a personal consultation with a doctor. If you have health problems from sitting or work, please consult your trusted doctor.
Who wants to spend 90 Euros – Blue Yeti Nano Condenser Microphone
Who is it suitable for? Do you want to make yourself independent of a bad microphone but find your gaming headset otherwise very comfortable? A good desktop microphone is a great alternative here.
A current recommendation is the Blue Yeti Nano. The device costs nearly 90 Euros thanks to Black Friday and offers you high-quality craftsmanship and a stable stand on your desk. Thanks to extensive software, you have many options for adjusting how your voice sounds.
Interestingly, you can get the gray model on sale for about 90 Euros, while the black model is not reduced and still costs 120 Euros.

A comprehensive test and some audio samples of the Yeti Nano can be viewed and listened to here at MeinMMO. Here we have taken a closer look at the Yeti Nano and explain why we think the Yeti Nano is a great microphone if you can get it for under 100 Euros:

After 17 years, there is a new world record in World of Warcraft. And the elf didn’t even have to throw up afterwards …
In World of Warcraft, there are numerous achievements and accomplishments. However, not all of them truly grant an achievement in the game. There are plenty of special feats that have simply burned into the minds of players. This could be leveling up to level 60, without choosing a specialization or – as in this case – doing particularly many somersaults as a Night Elf.
What happened? Reddit user SingActDirect linked a small video from her Twitch channel in the World of Warcraft subreddit. In it, you see the Night Elf Kittypurry hopping lightly in place – presumably waiting for the respawn of Defias. It starts with a few normal jumps, then a somersault. Then another somersault. And another one. And another one… a whopping 17 times in a row, the druid flips over and sets a new world record.

Why is this so special? Night Elves (and Blood Elves) have, unlike almost all other races, two jump animations. One is the normal jump and then there is a roll. Night Elves perform a somersault in the process. The chance of this second animation occurring is 50%. If you manage to pull this off a staggering 17 times in a row, the chance is a mere 0.0007%!
More updates on World of Warcraft can be found here:
Community reacts amused: In the World of Warcraft community, this achievement is well received, as most players have memories of when they tried to set such a record with their Night Elves – and usually gave up after 4 or 5 jumps.
“I thought I was cool in Cata when I managed 5 somersaults in a row …”
“The best content from World of Warcraft that has been released in recent years.”
“You have left humanity behind.”
However, it must be said that the record can only be observed by oneself. Therefore, video proof is needed to capture it. For other players, the display of the animation is randomized. While the actual Night Elf player sees a somersault, other players around them may see the normal jump animation.
This means that you may have already set such a record yourself – just from the perspective of another player – without realizing it.
But it is nice to see that this 17-year-old WoW tradition of Night Elf somersaults still persists in the season of mastery.

New World brings a new update today, November 24th. This comes with maintenance work. We from MeinMMO will reveal the patch notes and how long the server downtime will last.
What kind of update is this? Today’s patch is a small update that primarily fixes bugs. These bugs include:
A problem with the ritual quest is being fixed, which prevented players from completing the quest when the interactive heart jewel was used before defeating Alastor.
The harvest worker set will be brought back into the game and can be dropped by mobs. However, there are issues with the sets that disappeared due to a bug with the latest update. These will be activated again at a later date.
There are various stability improvements.
Additionally, there will be some coin reimbursements. Companies will receive back their coins if they declared war after the release of patch 1.1. Moreover, companies that own a territory will receive a one-time refund for all stations that have been downgraded since patch 1.1. This money is supposed to be directly paid out with the return of the servers.
Players will also get their money back, namely for paid housing taxes since patch 1.1. However, these coins are not expected to land back in the players’ accounts until the end of the weekend.
How long will the server maintenance last? The patch will be deployed at 8:00 AM our time, marking the beginning of the server downtime.
The maintenance work is expected to last 3 hours. The servers should be back online around 11:00 AM.
Just yesterday, November 23rd, there was an update at 3:00 PM German time. The following changes were made:
A problem was fixed where the time of a world suddenly jumped to a future date.
A bug was fixed where some combat situations with many players caused them to appear frozen and their state could not be communicated to users due to excessive bandwidth usage.
A rare issue was resolved where a server could crash.
Companies that control the respective settlement, however, are still expected to receive 100% of the revenue from housing taxes.

When will the next update come? It is currently unclear whether today’s update is already the “weekly patch”. The bug fixes seem to be too few for that.
Additionally, the developers have indirectly announced the “big December patch”. By this update, the housing taxes are to remain reduced by 90%. However, no date for this update has been disclosed.
However, the developers have provided insight into their general vision for the endgame:
The Twitch streamer bbjess has reportedly been waiting for her payment for several weeks. The expected amount is in the tens of thousands, she claims. She is not satisfied with Twitch’s response.
This is the situation:
bbjess is a popular streamer in the Just Chatting category on Twitch with over 43,000 followers.
Between October and November 2021, she had 10,383 subscribers (via TwitchTracker.com). A new record for the streamer.
Now she says: The money from her record never reached her. Twitch owes her a lot of money.
Who is the streamer? bbjess has been actively streaming on Twitch since mid-2020. Initially, she showed various games, but she also ventured into categories like music or unlisted categories.
By now, she primarily focuses on Just Chatting and interacts with her viewers. She is especially known and loved for her humor and open personality.
In October 2021, bbjess experienced a surge in popularity and drastically multiplied her average viewership as well as her followers. Also, her subscriptions reportedly increased significantly during this time (via TwitchTracker.com).
In November 2021, she spoke out on Twitter. There she says: Twitch owes her “tens of thousands of dollars”, although there is no reason for the payment to be delayed. She is missing the internet to ask for help and the voices of people:

This is what the streamer says: In one of her current streams, bbjess states that Twitch owes her 26,000 dollars. She says: “Twitch has not paid me. I have contacted them. I am on vacation, just paid taxes, I am running out of money, but I thought it’s okay. A big check is coming. But it just isn’t coming” (via Twitch.tv).
Twitch streamers receive a share of the subscription fees that accumulate monthly for the subscribers. A regular subscription costs 4.99 US dollars in the USA – recently only 3.99 euros in Germany. Depending on the contract, streamers receive about 50% of the revenue from the subscriptions.
With around 10,400 subscribers at the peak, this amounts to 26,000 dollars, which she has mentioned herself in the stream – or converted to 23,111 euros.
Why isn’t the money coming? According to the contract with bbjess, Twitch supposedly has a period of 45 days after the end of the month to transfer the money (via Dexerto.com). Also, according to some users on Twitter, it is not uncommon for salary payments to arrive later.
In bbjess’s case, however, she has already received a response from Twitch. They stated that there was an irregularity with her account, which is why payments have been blocked for security reasons.

The support does not specify what exact irregularity it is.
It may be related to a 19-hour ban that bbjess received in October for her “bbjessBoobees” emote (via Twitter.com). However, before any further payments can occur, bbjess must first contact support.
Meanwhile, the competition is also not inactive. Facebook and YouTube apparently make some well-off offers to many well-known streamers if they turn their backs on Twitch:
With Mortal Online 2, a new MMORPG has launched in Early Access on Steam today. It claims that players are “constantly in danger” and can lose everything. MeinMMO explains what kind of game this is and who should check it out.
What kind of game is it? Mortal Online 2 is a sandbox MMORPG with a strong focus on PvP. You can set out to explore the world, build a house, and even establish your own empire. However, all of this comes at the cost of shedding blood. And that often includes your own, especially in the first hours of gameplay.
Because whether it’s PvE enemies or other players: you are constantly at risk of dying. With death comes the loss of your entire inventory. This can be very frustrating for many MMORPG fans.
MeinMMO editor Alexander Leitsch himself tried out Mortal Online 2 during the beta and died dozens of times:
Mortal Online 2 focuses on action battles and your creativity
What does Mortal Online 2 offer? Mortal Online 2 focuses on a first-person action system. You need to strike or block with your weapon precisely. Mouse movement determines whether the strike comes from above, below, right, or left. This is important since enemies have different weak points or blocking can be circumvented. However, this is not so easy for beginners.
In the game, there are melee and ranged combat as well as magic and even mounted combat. However, Mortal Online 2 does without classes or levels. Instead, there are numerous skills you can improve by repeated use.
At its core, the MMORPG relies on typical sandbox elements. You can therefore look forward to crafting, free trade between players, and housing. The character editor is particularly cool, where your age influences your stats, and different ancestors can be mixed together. You can spend an eternity fine-tuning the details here.
The highlight – or the absolute turn-off – is full loot PvP. So if you kill another player in the open world, you can loot their entire inventory.
Oh, and there is no map. Not even a compass like in New World or ESO. You need to like that.
Who is the game interesting for? Mortal Online 2 is aimed at players who enjoy sandbox and PvP. If you are willing to engage in a guild and have fun with theorycrafting, you should definitely check out this PvP MMORPG. Because it offers a good combat system, solid graphics, and numerous mechanics that go very deep.
However, the game is not for fans of classic MMORPGs with a hero story, linear quests, and dungeons, as these do not exist in Mortal Online 2.
The payment system, which relies on a Buy2Play model along with a subscription, is also challenging. A major hurdle that few players will likely overcome. However, from these, a close and strong community could form.
If you are more interested in a pure PvE MMORPG, you will surely find one here:
The various helis and jets from Battlefield 2042 are often a bane for foot soldiers in the game. However, one player has found an extremely useful loadout to easily take out these nuisances. This only works through a trick.
What is this loadout? Technically, you only need 3 different gadgets, but you definitely need 2 loadouts that you must create before the game:
one loadout needs the SOFLAM target marker
the second loadout requires a recoil-less M5
finally, you need Angel’s equipment crate
The remaining weapons are completely up to you, as these three gadgets are enough. You have the M5 from the start. You obtain the SOFLAM at level 56. You automatically have the equipment crate when you choose Angel as your specialist. It is his special gadget. In our special, we explain the specialists of Battlefield 2042 in detail.
How does the loadout work? Play with the SOFLAM and choose a target that you want to take down from the sky. The SOFLAM marks a vehicle just like the FXM-33 FA missile does. But first, set up your equipment crate.
The peculiarity is that every smart weapon receives a lock-on to the target after marking it. Now switch your loadout to the one with the M5 through your equipment crate.
The lock-on remains, and you can launch the missile. Unlike the FA missile, just one shot from the M5 is enough to take a heli down – and apparently, the distracting flares of the planes do not divert the missile, as a clip shows:

If you play in a team, you don’t even need to switch the loadout. You can simply inform your squad members that a target is marked. They can then hunt it down with their M5 launchers.
Is this supposed to work? At the moment, the community is divided on whether this is an exploit. The SOFLAM even maintains the mark even when it is no longer in the loadout. User BigBallsMalone says: “You shouldn’t be able to keep the lock-on after changing the loadout. That’s cheesy.”
However, it seems that the SOFLAM is simply time-limited and works across different players. Even in older Battlefield titles, such “hot swaps” were already possible. Nonetheless, fans are unsure if this is intended or one of the many bugs.
Against this stands the discussion of how strong vehicles really are. A part of the community complains that the continuous heli kills are annoying and that there is an effective counter through this method.
Others think one shot for a kill is too harsh.
Are there other options? In fact, one of the later sniper rifles is currently a popular anti-vehicle weapon. The NWT-50 takes out tanks just as well as the M5 but fires much faster (via GameStar.de).

However, you only unlock the sniper at level 60, which is even later than the SOFLAM. If you want to grind for that long, you then have two options to keep unwanted vehicles at bay.
By the way: DICE has revealed what the future holds for Battlefield 2042. Here are the plans:
New World is facing heavy criticism as many players feel it offers too little content. This has become even harder with the new patch 1.1. However, Twitch streamer shroud still finds the MMO good and explains why many players have issues with the content.
What is the problem with New World? New World is not a classic MMORPG. While it offers a main quest to follow, there is no leveling path leading you from quest hub to quest hub with a linear story.
Moreover, there is no classic endgame with daily quests, dungeons, and raids, as seen in WoW. Instead, the focus is particularly on the grind around “Watermarks”. This allows players to increase the drop chance for strong equipment, as we have already explained here: How does loot work in New World?
Nevertheless, Twitch streamer Michael “shroud” Grzesiek praises New World’s content. He claims that many players don’t even know what to do and therefore lose enjoyment in the MMO.
“You have to find the content yourself”
What exactly does shroud say? In his livestream from November 22nd, the streamer explains that players must seek out their own content. He even states that this is part of the fun of the game:
If you expect the game to tell you what to do, that’s not the case here. You have to figure it out yourself. That is also the fun part, in my opinion.
I believe that many people end up doing nothing because they don’t know what to do. But if you take a moment to pause and think about what you should do, soul-searching, if you will, then that is the game.

Thus, shroud refers to both the leveling process and the endgame of the MMO. Regarding the endgame, he also states: “Basically, you do dailies like in other MMOs. You gather chests, complete daily quests, and craft daily materials. Once you understand the principle, it becomes quite obvious.”
So far, shroud has played over 355 hours of New World live on Twitch (via Sullygnome). He is already deep in the endgame and has seen almost all of the content.
Is shroud alone in this opinion? No, even on Reddit and in forums, it is repeatedly pointed out that New World offers a lot, but many players do not discover this content because they want to follow a classic story and quests.
The forum also points out that one can create their own content with open world PvP and wars (via New World Forum).
However, not everyone is satisfied with the current endgame content. WoW streamer Asmongold sharply criticizes the endgame, calling it the “worst endgame loop ever devised for an MMO.” Still, Asmongold emphasizes that he wouldn’t have invested 500 hours in a game he doesn’t like:
The future focuses on a mix of PvP and PvE and new dungeons
What’s next for New World? Players are still waiting for a roadmap for the future of New World. However, there have been some statements regarding the endgame topic. It is supposed to be based on several pillars, and new dungeons have also been confirmed:
In Destiny 2 there is currently not much new. The Season of the Lost is currently frozen in Stasis and players can hardly wait for the story to finally continue. We at MeinMMO still show you what you can expect this week.
This is happening this week: This week is once again not much going on. But you still have enough time to tackle some certain chores. Gambit is offering you double experience points. So if you want to treat yourself to a boost, this week is the perfect time. Take a minute and put your particles in the bank.
Furthermore, you can expect a very relaxed and quick Nightfall Strike: Lake of Shadows. You can quickly run through this with your colleagues and get some great loot in the meantime. Don’t miss out on this.
Since there’s not much happening in Destiny 2 anyway, you can also tackle the seasonal ornaments of the “Hegemony”. They require a certain grind, but since this is currently offered due to the content drought, you still have the chance to get that done.
The most important information about activities from November 23 to November 30.

Response time: 4 ms
Refresh rate: 240 Hz
Brightness: 400 cd/m²

The Acer Predator XB273GX is a gaming monitor with top ratings
How is the device rated? For instance, the testers from the online magazine Wepc.com praise the high accuracy of color representation that the monitor delivers even in the default settings (via wepc.com). Especially in fast shooters and e-sports titles, the gaming monitor shows its strengths.
The online magazine Rtings had thoroughly tested the identical model with WQHD resolution (via rtings.com). In the test, the testers praise the extremely low input lag and the high response times of the monitor. Moreover, the device offers good brightness of 400 candela, making it suitable for dark rooms as well. However, the contrasts of the gaming monitor are not perfect and remain the only weakness of this otherwise excellent device.
Rtings rates the device in the gaming category with 8.8 out of 10 points and states that it is a gaming monitor “with excellent gaming performance and a wealth of features.”
The monitor is worth it for all users looking for a very good Full HD monitor
For whom is the device worthwhile? The monitor is worth it for those of you who enjoy playing shooters or other games where you want high FPS numbers. Thanks to high FPS, the game not only looks good, but you also benefit from an extremely smooth display, which can give you an advantage in competitive gaming.
