In Pokémon GO, the dates for the Community Days in November and December 2021 are known. We show you on which days they will start and which Pokémon will come to the C-Day in November.
Where does the information come from? Niantic talked about the Community Days in Pokémon GO in a developer diary. They haven’t revealed much information about the next three events yet, but we now know which three days the next C-Days will take place.
There is also initial information about the Pokémon that will be the focus during the Community Day in November 2021.
Community Day in November and December: Dates and Pokémon Teaser
When does it start? Mark the following dates for the next three Community Days:
November 21
December 18
December 19
Community Day in November 2021
Date: November 21 from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
Update from October 22 at 7:40 PM: On the evening of October 22, Niantic confirmed that the Community Day Pokémon in November is Sheinux (via pokemongo.nianticlabs.com). If you evolve your Luxio during the event, Luxtra will learn the Charged Attack Psychobeißer.
Pokémon: In the developer diary, Michael Steranka, Director of Product Marketing at Niantic, gives initial insights into the Pokémon for the C-Day in November (via YouTube).
He names the Pokémon ‘X’
The Pokémon comes from the Sinnoh region
It is an Electric-type Pokémon
In the community, there is speculation based on this information that it will be Sheinux. Because the Pokémon would also fit with what the dataminers from PokéMiners recently discovered in the game’s code.

Pokémon: There is currently no information about the focus Pokémon on the two December days. However, based on past events from the last few years, it is likely that there will be a ‘Best of’ and several Pokémon could be in the spotlight.
During the Community Day in December 2020, all previous C-Day Pokémon were in focus. During the Community Day in December 2019, there was also a ‘Best of’ with many cool bonuses. Therefore, it is likely that December 2021 will look similar.
In the coming weeks, Niantic will provide more information.
How do you like the outlook on the next Community Days? Do you think Niantic chose the dates well, or would you have preferred other days for the Community Days? Let us know your opinion here on MeinMMO in the comments.

FIFA 22 brings today, on October 22, the second team in the “Road to the Knockouts” event. We summarize all the information about the RTTK cards.
When does the event start? As usual, the second part of the RTTK event started on Friday evening at 7:00 PM. At this time, the Road-to-the-Knockouts-Team 1 was swapped out in packs for Team 2.
The current RTTK weekly objectives featuring midfielder André are not being replaced yet, and are still available for a few days after the start of the second part. So you still have time to complete the tasks if you want to secure the card.
RTTK-Team 2 – What kind of cards are these?
RTTK-Team 2 at a glance: Here you can find all the players that are now part of Team 2 of the Road-to-the-Knockouts event in packs.
What the cards bring: The special thing about the RTTK cards is that they are dynamic player items. This means: Depending on events in real football, the cards can receive an upgrade. This has already been seen with the “Road to the Finals” cards from previous years concerning the Champions League and Europa League.
That just caused a peculiar case: Bayer Leverkusen even apologized for preventing an RTTK upgrade.
The “Road to the Knockouts” has its own upgrade path. In total, 2 upgrades for the cards are possible.
The first upgrade is available for 3 victories in the next 4 group matches of the player’s team in their respective competition.
The second upgrade is available for advancing to the knockout stage.
Important: The player does not even need to be on the pitch. The result of the team is decisive.
It is Friday, and that means in Destiny 2: It is Xur-Day. For the daily reset on Friday, October 22, Xur opens his Destiny bargain shop again to sell you Exotics, weapons, and armor. What exactly that will be, you will find out as always at MeinMMO.
What happened this week? Did you hear the whispering in the dark? If not, then it was probably just the scuttling of the Skittering Scorpion Sparrows creeping up on unsuspecting Guardians with their hairy, juicy, long legs in the open world. If you haven’t treated yourself to this stylish pet yet, you can do so until Tuesday, 7:00 PM. The exotic Sparrow only costs Glimmer.
This week also brought good news for the Trials of Osiris. They start today with the community-hoped Freelance mode. Bungie wants to see how you like it and then think about whether the mode will be permanently integrated.
However, this week there was plenty of discussion material for Destiny 2 players when Bungie attached a price tag to its future dungeons. What exactly this means for the purchase of an expansion, we have summarized for you:
All info on Xur on October 22, 2021 – PS4, PS5, PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Google Stadia
When does Xur come? Xur probably also drives “Skittering Scorpion” and therefore arrived punctually at 7:00 PM in Destiny 2. He will chill until Tuesday, October 26, for the weekly reset at 7:00 PM and looks forward to your visit.
Where is Xur? This is his location for the weekend
Xur’s location: Meet Xur on Nessus in the area “Guardian Grave”. There he is waiting for you on the big tree.
If you don’t know the way there, you can watch the video from Nexxoss Gaming. He will also take a look at Xur’s offerings and analyze the perks for you.

Xur’s inventory from October 22 to October 26 – All Exotics at a glance
What does Xur have on offer? As always, Xur has an exotic weapon and armor for all characters, so for Warlocks, Hunters, and Titans. This is his current offer:
Weapon: Graviton Lance – Pulse rifle for 29 Legendary Shards.
Xur always has with him: You can always get an Exotic Engram for 97 Legendary Shards from Xur as well as the weekly quest for an Exotic Code.
Xur’s offer on October 22, 2021 at a glance.
The Trials Labs (Trials of Osiris) on October 22.
Which map is up this week? This week, you will fight on the Moon in “The Cauldron”.
The Trials map this weekend: “The Cauldron” on the Moon.
You now receive your loot in the Trials of Osiris not through three, five, and seven wins anymore but through:
7 wins
50 rounds
as well as the infamous flawless run
This is the reward for a flawless run: This weekend, you will receive the Solar Sword “Solas Narbe” as a reward for your flawless run. Additionally, there is double rank, so you level up faster and armor drops have a higher chance of getting better stat values.
If you have received your desired weapon, you can focus your trial engrams specifically on it. On top of that, there are enhancement prisms and ascendant shards. Keep in mind that your rewards increase even more once you have a complete pass – even if you’ve lost one or two games.
When do the Trials start? The Trials start exactly at 7:00 PM. This time, as mentioned, with the Freelance mode via “Trials Lab.” If the PvP event is well attended this test weekend, there is a good chance that Bungie will consider Freelance as a permanent option for the Trials.
Will you join again this weekend to benefit from the rank boost or can you finally take the solo player mode without fixed teams? Or do you prefer to enjoy the weekend in Destiny 2 in a challenging Nightfall on the Exodus Black?

In New World crafting is highly emphasized. Wood plays a significant role, as the material is used for many recipes. We at MeinMMO will show you in this article how you can quickly level your logging skill to get the necessary resources.
Why is wood so important? This resource is needed almost everywhere in the game. Whether you want to craft weapons and furniture at the workbench or take on missions at the town board: wood, or its refined versions, are often in demand.
What types of wood exist in New World? Currently, there are 4 different types of trees growing across Aeternum. However, to chop down the rarer trees, your logging level must be high enough. In the following overview, you will find all the details about the different types of wood.
Freshwood – Harvestable from “Young Trees”
Collectible from logging level 0
Mature wood – Harvestable from “Mature Trees”
Collectible from logging level 50
Wyrdwood – Harvestable from “Wyrdwood” trees
Collectible from logging level 100
Tropical wood – Harvestable from “Tropical wood” trees
Collectible from logging level 175
Increase your level faster with the right tools
A video summary, alongside the article, is provided to you by MeinMMO author Phuc-Thi Nguyen.

Are the tools that important? Yes, they indeed are. The higher the quality of your tools, the faster you can chop down trees. And the faster you can chop down trees, the quicker you gain experience per tree. Try to craft or buy better tools whenever possible.
Which logging axes are the best? In this overview, you will find the individual axes with their stats and when you can unlock them with your character level. We also list the recommended passive benefits.
Logging Axe – Iron
Usable from character level 5 – 1 Passive possible.
“Logging Discipline” – More experience in logging.
Logging Axe – Steel
Usable from character level 17 – 2 Passives possible.
“Logging Discipline” – More experience in logging.
“Logging Yield” – Logging yields more resources.
Logging Axe – Star Metal
Usable from character level 36 – 3 Passives possible.
“Logging Discipline” – More experience in logging.
“Logging Yield” – Logging yields more resources.
“Azoth Extraction” or “Logging Luck” – The former gives you a chance for Azoth after gathering, the latter gives you an increased chance for rare materials while chopping down trees.
Logging Axe – Orichalcum
Usable from character level 52 – 3 Passives possible.
Increasing the logging level is divided into various level zones.
From Level 1 – 50:
Equip your axe and start chopping “Young Trees”.
In all starting areas, trees stand directly in front of the gates of the settlement.
If you are overloaded, run back and throw the wood into your storage or if you are in a hurry to level, just drop it on the ground and keep chopping.
From Level 50 – 100:
Here, you need to chop down as many “Mature Trees” as possible.
These give far more experience than “Young Trees”.
And again, the best places are right in front of the settlement gates. The denser the forest, the more “Mature Trees” you will find.
From Level 100 – 175:
Now you can chop “Wyrdwood” trees, which glow bright blue and give you a lot of experience.
Next to the trees, you can now also hunt Dryad Wolves and obtain wood. You can recognize the wolves by their bright green poison cloud that surrounds them.
We recommend farming primarily Dryad Wolves, as they provide a lot of experience and are much quicker to chop down than the “Wyrdwood” trees.
Wyrdwood around Lichwood + Dryad Wolves and where to find them
From Level 175 – 200
Now you can gather everything and actually don’t need to put any more effort into maximizing logging.
However, if you still want to reach 200, then it’s best to collect “Tropical wood”.
Or you can continue to chop Dryad Wolves, as they are just as effective in terms of experience.
Tropical wood and the best places to gather it
Further advantages to make leveling easier
Extra Constitution brings bonuses: The more points you have invested in Constitution in the attribute window, the more benefits you receive when chopping trees.
50 points or more = +10% more speed in logging
200 points or more = additional +10% more speed in logging
250 points or more = 10% more yield in logging
300 points or more = 25% chance to fell a tree with one hit
The more Constitution, the better the benefits in logging
Area reputation also plays a role. With the area reputation card “Gathering”, you can fell trees even faster, which in turn means faster experience gain. If you mainly chop wood in an area, you can rely on this buff.
Are you already level 200 in logging? Or is that not even your focus, but rather mining? Let us know in the comments below.

The game is won by the first one to achieve 25 kills. A good map where you are forced to fight closely.

After 7 years, the conflict surrounding German YouTuber Rainer “Drachenlord” Winkler (32) has escalated. A court in Nuremberg has sentenced him to two years in prison for dangerous bodily harm and other offenses. While Winkler perceives the verdict as unjust, claiming he only defended himself, others comment on the ruling with scorn and mockery. They view Winkler’s life as a mix between a reality show and a game, the “Dragon Game”.
This is the conflict:
The YouTuber Drachenlord initially talked about all sorts of things at the start of his career, using a strong dialect, often provocatively, hurtfully, and thoughtlessly. This attracted a group of people who openly mocked him.
When one of these “haters” threatened to publicly reveal his address in 2014, Drachenlord preempted him: Winkler published the address himself and invited people to come to his home.
Over the next 7 years, the “Dragon Game” developed – people from all over Germany traveled to Drachenlord, provoking and harassing him. The situation outside his home escalated more frequently. According to the police, they had to intervene several times daily. It became a burden for the entire town.
For this, he has now been convicted: The court in Nuremberg found it proven that the 32-year-old had struck a man in the forehead with a flashlight, among other offenses. Additionally, he threw a stone at another person and insulted police officers.
Winkler had already been convicted in 2019 for a pepper spray attack, receiving 7 months’ probation. Some of the offenses for which he is now charged were committed during the probation period.
The public prosecutor’s office had demanded two years and 6 months in prison. His defense attorney argued for a probation sentence of a maximum of two years and a fine.
The judge decided on two years in prison and rejected a dual probation. The verdict is not yet final.
YouTuber feels the prison sentence is unjust, claims he only defended himself
This is how Drachenlord reacts to the verdict: In a 15-minute video, the YouTuber addresses his situation (via youtube). He perceives the verdict as unjust. He asserts that he is under immense psychological pressure, constantly physically and verbally attacked by his haters. From his perspective, he only defended himself against people who had trespassed on his property and insulted him.
He also states: He could not fulfill the community service hours imposed on him because no organization wanted him to perform the court-mandated community service with them. They feared the “media uproar”.
Drachenlord now plans to turn his life around. He has sold his house and intends to limit his YouTube activities.
“It was a nice season finale, thanks to everyone”
This is how the case is commented on by the “haters”: Under the YouTube video, there are several comments that make it clear that they see the

The perk “Ghost” is one of the most important passive abilities in Call of Duty: Warzone and has apparently been causing problems for quite some time. There are videos showing that the perk does not work properly. Now the developers have confirmed this and are promising a fix.
When you’re setting up your loadout in Call of Duty: Warzone, one question arises at the beginning: Do you build a loadout with the perk “Overkill” for a second primary weapon, or will it be a loadout with “Ghost” to better protect yourself from reconnaissance?
Ghost is important to protect yourself from heartbeat sensors and reconnaissance drones in Warzone. But you cannot rely on it properly at the moment – and that has probably been the case for months. Now the developers have acknowledged the problem.
Ghost hasn’t been working properly for months
The problem started at the latest in July. At that time, the first videos of the broken Ghost perk emerged, but the bug probably only occurred in private matches (via TikTok).
It is no longer possible to determine when the malfunction also affected public matches. But this bug could have been “haunting” your matches for months. Professional player “Tommey” shows on Twitter what it looks like:

What doesn’t work with Ghost? The tricky part of the bug is that it occurs so irregularly. In the video from Tommey, the enemy in the house is visible on the mini-map due to a reconnaissance drone. Then there is a fight with other players, and the enemy in the house is somewhat forgotten.
But Tommey remembers the ping on the mini-map and checks the roof of the house. And lo and behold: the enemy is indeed still up there, and the faulty Ghost perk of the enemy becomes his downfall.
What happens next? Recently, the developers from Raven Software spoke out, confirming the problems with the perk and announcing a bug fix:

How long the repair will take cannot be assessed at the moment. The bug is currently being investigated and is not yet in the “fix phase”; first, the developers are looking into why Ghost is not functioning correctly.
However, it shouldn’t take too long. The listed bugs on the Trello board are given high priority, and the appropriate fix may come as early as next week with the playlist update on October 28.
How should I react to this? That’s really difficult to answer right now. Generally, rely less on the Ghost perk and get yourself Overkill and a second primary weapon with your first loadout drop of your matches. Only later should you switch back to Ghost when you take a second loadout drop – the perk apparently works somewhat.
Otherwise, you’re unfortunately left waiting for the fix. With such an important perk as Ghost, that’s frustrating, but at the moment it’s unavoidable.
The Steam user INeedMoney summarizes his experience as follows:
Review after almost 50 hours of gameplay. Positive:
– Beating mobs with other players. It brings back the good old TERA feeling. – World events. Be it fishing contests, boss monsters, or glider flying. Happens multiple times a day and is a nice pastime. – Housing. With the own standard house, every player gets an affordable home that stands outside the “open world.” If you want your own house in the open world, it can get quite expensive, so you have to save well. – The world is beautifully designed and coherent, it also somewhat reminds of TERA. – Combat system is fun, but depends on the class.
Negative:
– The “Luminous Pet System,” a kind of companion battle that allows you to generate gold and EXP while being AFK. Since I hate AFK mechanics in MMOs, this is by far my biggest downside with Elyon.
Some positive reviews also mention aspects that Elyon has over the new MMO New World. LuckyL00ose®™ writes: “Positive, because I can ride and swim, unlike in the MMO of a world company.” Another user emphasizes that the quests are better than those in New World.
The thing with the shop: Another topic in the reviews is the shop. It offers not only cosmetics but also some buffs at monthly costs and an item that increases your attributes. You can get it in-game as well, but it is indeed faster through the shop.
Some therefore refer to Elyon as pay-to-win, while others find the shop okay. A detailed listing of the content can be found here:
Who is Elyon interesting for? Primarily for players looking for a new free-to-play MMORPG, who enjoy steampunk elements, and who have no issues with typical Asia content.

We have written a detailed article on this topic here:
On October 20, the new MMORPG Elyon was released on Steam and in a standalone client. We at MeinMMO look at the first player numbers and the Steam reviews.
How does Elyon perform at launch? The new MMORPG peaked at over 13,000 concurrent players at launch on October 20. On October 21, this value was slightly surpassed again, with 13,876 concurrent players as the current record (via SteamDB).
However, these numbers do not include players who directly downloaded the client from the website.
Experience shows that the first weekend is usually the strongest for a new MMORPG. Therefore, the numbers could increase further. Since Elyon is also free-to-play, there is no major hurdle to start in the new title.
What do the Steam reviews say? The reviews are currently mixed. Of the currently 767 reviews, only 48% are positive.
Criticism is mainly directed at the graphics, the equipment upgrades, and the “lack of soul,” which is said to make Elyon interchangeable. We also had a similar conclusion at the end of the first closed beta:
“Like Black Desert, but with half the budget”
What do the critics say? The negative reviews have particularly focused on the points of graphics, performance issues, and the “lack of soul”:
For example, the user Splatty writes: “It looks like Black Desert for a dollar, which also only runs on Unreal Engine 3.”
Squaz sees Elyon more as “Black Desert, but with half the budget.” It is also said to feel “clunky” and not really fun.
CyberDown is bothered by the unremarkable game world: “The game world is super small and inconspicuous, despite one cool landscape in each zone. Lots of filler with mobs standing around as if it were 2005.”
User DerHelleBarde further explains: “Unfortunately, I cannot stand this game for more than 5 minutes. Although the graphics are quite nice, the UI, the camera control, and the incredibly poor readability of the texts just give me a headache.”
Gameplay-wise, the biggest criticism is directed at the upgrading of equipment. This can fail and even damage the item. The user EAX is particularly annoyed by this:
Want to upgrade equipment? For that, you need the corresponding upgrade stones. You can of course enhance these stones yourself, and then of course again and again, to make the chance of a successful upgrade nice and high.
If the upgrade fails, a possible upgrade slot is wasted/destroyed, and in the worst case, the equipment is downgraded further.
Moreover, the PvP scaling is mentioned in several negative reviews. It is said to be absent, allowing high-level players to defeat low enemies with just two hits.
Further points of criticism include labor points and the combat system, with opinions on the battles widely varying.
Some users also complain that the anti-cheat software XIGN does not let them into the game or that they do not trust this program at all.

The new MMORPG Elyon explained in 2 minutes
What is praised? The positive reviews particularly praise the action-packed combat system:
The user Bryan writes: “Incredibly good combat system. The classes are really fun.”
Voxzin describes the combat system as follows: “It is a good middle ground between Black Desert and Final Fantasy XIV. Not so fast that you are constantly sweating, but also not so slow that you are just doing combos while chatting on Discord.”
Further praise is given for the various PvP modes, the constant feeling of getting new and better equipment, and the crafting system.

EA has introduced the new Adidas event for FIFA 22 Ultimate Team, which will boost the stats of selected players to 99. Here we show you what we already know about the new promo.
In a live stream (via twitch), EA announced a new Adidas promo that will bring a new type of special cards into the game. The motto is: “Don’t Stop Till You’re 99”.
Certain players under contract with Adidas are expected to receive 99 upgrades for individual stats.
This is how the promo is supposed to work: Throughout the season, various special cards will appear, each boosting one stat to 99. However, this is supposed to be a process, and the cards will not directly feature the 99 stat.
However, EA has not yet explained how long it will take until the selected stat is boosted to a full 99. We also do not yet know whether the cards will be available in packs or whether they can be unlocked through SBCs or challenges.
When does the promo start? The promo starts on November 21 with a special card for Dortmund’s Giovanni Reyna. It is already known that the attacking midfielder will receive a 99 pace upgrade.
Which players will receive these boosts? So far, only Giovanni Reyna has been officially announced. However, if you take a closer look at the promotional video for the new promo, various football stars appear in connection with the number 99.
Including:
Jude Bellingham
Ciro Immobile
João Félix
Timo Werner

This is how the show works: In Knossi’s game show, two streamers compete against Knossi and a famous co-player. Each game offers a different prize.
The twist: If the two streamers do not win, the prizes will be raffled among the viewers — so you can also win.
Knossi himself describes his new show idea as an experiment and is unsure how the concept will be received by fans. However, he emphasizes that many people have invested a lot of time and energy in the planning of Prime Time Games.
If the show is well received by his fans, Knossalla plans to continue it. In the future, sponsors will also be included, which could lead to even bigger prizes.
Who are the participants? Not all of the participants in the new game show have been revealed. Only the identities of the two Twitch streamers that Knossi will face are known:
The mysterious celebrity with whom Knossi promotes his stream remains unknown for now. Knossi reveals no more than that fans have long desired this guest. It is therefore not a celebrity from Angelcamp 2. The fans have now compiled their own favorites:
Stefan Raab (TV producer)
Elton (TV host)
Vincent Weiss (musician)
Frank “Tonmann” Sum (famous face from Circus Halligalli & Late Night Berlin)
Here the show will be broadcast: The Prime Time Games will apparently not be broadcast via Twitch. Knossi and his team will rely on the platform Streamblast (via streamblast.com) for the duration of the show. However, it is not entirely ruled out that the event could also run simultaneously on his Twitch account.
When do the Prime Time Games start? If you are already excited, you can jump for joy: Knossi’s Prime Time Games will start this week. It will kick off on Saturday, October 23rd, at 8:00 PM.
The show itself is expected to take no more than four hours. Afterwards, there will be an aftershow, which, due to Knossi’s tight schedule and the joint show with Mario Barth (via streamblast.com), will likely not last too long either.

The Destiny 2 Trials of Osiris are finally getting the long-awaited Freelance mode exclusively for solo players tonight, October 22. The mode is returning as part of the Trials Labs. If you want to play Freelance, it will be available only this weekend.
The community has long been demanding a complete Freelance mode for the Trials of Osiris, where only solo players can participate. Bungie had already made it easier for solo players to play the Trials of Osiris four weeks ago. But that wasn’t enough. Although the player search was disabled, meaning you didn’t need a fixed team anymore, solo players still often faced teams.
With Freelance Lab, that is no longer the case:
Freelance is specifically designed for solo players (3v3).
No pre-made fireteams are allowed to join. You will no longer face teams among the opponents.
The mode has its own point that will be displayed to you on the right side of the normal Trials playlist via the Crucible Navigator.
Of course, solo players can still use the normal playlist if they wish.
That’s why the mode was long overdue: Until this season, the Trials of Osiris were only accessible if you had a full team of three players. When Bungie finally opened the door for solo players, many more players flocked to the Trials, which benefited the mode. So many players had never visited the Trials before.
The problem was that solo players had to almost always compete against teams of three. Teams benefit from better communication, coordination, and implementation of strategy. No wonder the Trials were a frustrating experience for solo players.
The 14th Saint welcomes all solo players this weekend.
Trials teams manipulated the playlist to their advantage
As if that weren’t frustrating enough for solo players, fixed Trials teams also tried to intentionally match up with solo players. This gave them exactly the advantage they needed in the past week to reach the Lighthouse faster and become Flawless.
How was this possible?: We don’t want to disclose exactly how this little cheating worked in detail. Bungie has already fixed the method with the Hotfix 3.3.1.1. It is no longer possible for fireteam leaders to start the Trials if they haven’t reached the required power level.
This is the players’ demand: Although Freelance in the Trials of Osiris in Destiny 2 is not yet available, players are already wishing for this mode to be permanent. Reddit is filled with various posts where players express the same sentiment: Forever Freelance for the Trials.
Trials need a permanent solo playlist, 3-player teams are completely unbalanced and nearly unbeatable. The solo playlist is a fair way to give regular players access to trial loot (except the lighthouse, which is fine). More hardcore players can play in their own challenging 3v3 stack league.
Will Bungie respond to the demand? Bungie will likely depend on how well the mode is ultimately used by players. After all, it is returning only as part of the “Trials Labs”, Bungie’s testing environment for various game modes and changes. For example, four weeks ago, you could also test the Elimination mode as lab rats.
That’s why the Trials are particularly worthwhile right now: Solo players can not only complete their Trials matches in peace this weekend, but also earn double reputation. This makes it easier to obtain the Trials weapons and armor. Or you can farm a good roll of Reed’s Regret or the Trials weapon for Flawless this week “Sola’s Bane” this weekend as a master variant.
Your rewards will be increased even more if you have a full card. Even if you’ve lost one or two matches. So don’t reset the pass repeatedly. Additionally, Bungie has stated that armor drops now have a higher chance of better stats.
How long will the mode be available?: The Trials of Osiris Freelance will only be available this weekend for the time being. It starts today, October 22, at 7 PM with the Daily Reset. And the Trials will end again at the Weekly Reset next Tuesday, October 26.
Will you be tackling the Trials solo this weekend? Or do you think it is a mode that can’t be played well without communication? What are your thoughts on the manipulation of the Trials playlist?

With Battlefield 2042, the series revamps old features like classes or the traditional conquest mode and refreshes the mechanics. Instead of classes, there are 10 specialists at launch, and MeinMMO shows you their abilities.
Update October 22:With a new gameplay trailer, the remaining specialists were introduced. We have extensively revised the article, and you can now find all 10 launch specialists here.
With Battlefield 2042, the series is heading into the future. Not only in terms of setting – the mechanics are also under scrutiny and are supposed to appeal to a new generation of players. In terms of classes, this means: more freedom, more unique abilities.
A total of 10 specialists will be available at launch, equipping you with unique abilities and essentially determining your class. MeinMMO explains the new class system and shows the specifics of each specialist.
[toc]
Battlefield 2042: Classes Explained
How does the class system work in Battlefield 2042? Basically, the familiar class division still exists in Battlefield 2042:
Assault Soldier – Mobile soldier for the front
Support – Support unit, also a medic
Pioneer – Responsible for heavy equipment
Recon – Scout out enemies or disrupt them
In contrast to earlier Battlefield titles, there are significantly fewer restrictions on weapon selection.
Unlike in Battlefield 5, as a recon you can also use weapons with less range, and an assault soldier has access to long-range calibers that were previously only available to a recon. This generally makes classes more variable, and your enemies can no longer easily identify your combat range specialization at a glance.
Your class is determined by your specialist. These are specialized soldiers whose abilities are meant to support your playstyle. Each specialist has an active and a passive ability that we will introduce to you in this article. In the story, most specialists are called “Non-Patriates” – stateless fighters whose home nation has collapsed.
However, you have the freedom to choose within the team and can also take the same specialist as your comrades – this also applies to enemies. In the “Hazard Zone” mode, it’s different – here you can only take one specialist per class.
All Assault Soldiers at the Launch of Battlefield 2042
Assault soldiers are built for the front and generate aggression with their abilities, but they can also use them for protection or retreat.
The Canadian effortlessly reaches positions for which others would need air support. The grappling hook is very versatile and makes Mackay a dangerous soldier who can appear anywhere.
Additionally, you have better mobility when aiming down sights due to the trait “Agile”. Your movement speed is higher when aiming down sights than with other specialists.
Dozer brings a large shield into battle, protecting himself from frontal fire. However, you cannot shoot while the bullets bounce off the shield in front of you.
But not only bullets have less effect on you – Dozer takes less damage from explosions and restores health faster when damaged by an explosion.
Sundance brings a selection of guided grenades to the front and can choose between disruption, EMP, and anti-tank grenades.
This specialist also wears a wingsuit, and if you jump from a great height, you can swiftly navigate the map with precision.
All Recon Specialists at the Launch of Battlefield 2042
Recon specialists in Battlefield 2042 are no longer just snipers lounging in their warm spots. Their abilities also help at the front lines or can disrupt enemies who are planning an action against you.
Casper is the classic sniper, and with his recon drone, you can help your team gain an overview of the battlefield. It can also disrupt enemy equipment.
Once you assume your strategic position at the edge of the battlefield, no one can sneak up on you. A motion sensor shows you on the screen if an enemy is approaching from behind.
Rao relies on his hacking tools to take control of objects on the map or disrupt enemy equipment. In the trailer, the specialist, for example, raises a series of “neutral” traffic bollards. He can disable the robotic dogs “Ranger” and deactivate functions of enemy vehicles.
A bit of scout work is also done by Rao: If you mark an enemy before eliminating him, you’ll briefly see other nearby opponents.
Ji-Soo is a close-quarters fighter, and when she lowers her glasses, you’ll see enemies through walls. However, the glasses have a battery that doesn’t last too long.
Additionally, opponents who have shot you will be highlighted for you.
All Support Specialists at the Launch of Battlefield 2042
Support specialists in Battlefield 2042 allow for better revives but are also suitable for supply deliveries. If you often help your comrades get back on their feet and want to give them a healing bonus, support specialists are the right choice.
Maria Falck brings a syringe pistol into combat, healing her allies. When you shoot at a team member whose health has suffered a bit, you trigger rapid health regeneration with the pistol.
In addition, your revive is enhanced, and when you help a teammate back on their feet, they will start with full health – unlike with other specialists.
Angel has access to a supply drop that you share with your teammates. At the drop, you can change your weapon loadout, but you also receive gear and ammunition back.
The second support specialist also has better revives, and comrades come back with some armor.
All Pioneers at the Launch of Battlefield 2042
Pioneers are responsible for heavy equipment and provide you with their favorite toys. They are particularly suitable for holding a position or supporting an attack from the second line.
Boris has a mobile sentry gun and can deploy his turret anywhere. The little helper detects enemies and attacks them independently. Thanks to his passive ability, the turret improves when you are near.
Irish is already known from the story of Battlefield 4 and brings a two-part fortification system into BF2042. You can set up a shield to protect yourself and the APS-36 sentry system that intercepts and neutralizes incoming grenades.
His passive ability grants you armor and other, yet unknown bonuses when you neutralize an enemy.
These were the 10 specialists available at the launch of Battlefield 2042.
The revamped class system allows you more freedom than in the predecessor Battlefield 5. Since you can choose any weapon with all classes, you have many more options available, and the specialists support your gameplay through their abilities.
Class Skins and Cosmetics Likely to Provide Variety
To ensure that the battlefield is not just overrun by the same soldiers, Battlefield 2042 will feature an extensive cosmetic system. A battle pass for Battlefield 2042 has already been announced, and in addition to weapon skins and charms, there are also skins for the specialists.
The English YouTuber “SammyBoiii” showcases in a video 21 possible specialist skins that could provide visual variety. The video shows scenes from the reveal trailer – we embed it here for you:

Battlefield 2042 is set to release on November 19. The large-scale battle will feature 10 specialists and 7 large maps. Additionally, there will be the portal mode with plenty of content from earlier Battlefield titles and the hazard mode that sounds a bit like a battle royale.
The beta of Battlefield 2042 is over and DICE has taken the community’s opinions and reports to heart. Now, you can expect positive changes at launch that will enhance your gaming experience.
What will change? From minimal to major changes, everything is included. Primarily, these are changes that positively affect gameplay or give you better visibility of events in Battlefield 2042.
These 5 changes await you at launch
EA DICE has taken the beta and the players’ experiences to heart and is now giving the new installment of the Battlefield series the final polish. Here are the previous changes you can expect:
HUD – Adjustments for better orientation
The HUD in the game will be significantly adjusted. Kills will be displayed in detail as usual under the crosshair. Additionally, the ping has been adjusted and a compass has been added.

The compass will be displayed below your screen without aiming down sights
The ping has not been effective, so changes will be made for better marking
The kill feed will be placed under the crosshair as in the predecessors
The overview map will now be unlocked – providing better insight into the battle situation
Commorose – The familiar quick communication function will be reintroduced
Adjustments to servers and bots
In the beta, players were thrown onto unoccupied servers filled with bots. This is set to change in the future. EA has addressed the issue and stated that they have fixed the error. Now, bots will only be added in exceptional cases to ensure team balance. They are not meant to take over the entire match but to assist.
Loadouts
In the beta, you could only access your loadout while in a match. This is set to change, as you will have the option to adjust your weapon combos with the associated specialists comfortably outside the combat zone.

A lot of customization options will be available to you
In the customization menu, you will take the time to adjust your quick access according to your playstyle. After that, you will also be able to name your loadout for better differentiation.
Warm Up before a round
In the beta, you were thrown onto the map, and each of your teammates went their own ways. At launch, Battlefield 2042 will therefore offer more options for communication. Before a round, you will first be brought to a warm-up area.
There, you can make certain agreements and tactics with your teammates that are essential in battle. The right mix of specialists or exchanging unnecessary weapons can be discussed in this area.
In the beta, you should have noticed that differentiating between friend or foe was quite the torture. Often, you attacked your teammate while your enemy lurked directly behind you. That should be a thing of the past.
Enemies will be made more visually recognizable. They will be given a special color tint. This serves to better differentiate between friend or foe. Teammates or friends will be highlighted in green or blue.
Furthermore, you will receive an auto-spot system. Enemies will thus be automatically detected in a radius of 10 meters. However, they must be within your field of vision.
Those were all the important changes that await you at launch. Can you hardly wait for the release? And if so, are these adjustments exactly what you missed in the beta? Let us know!

The Battle Royale Warzone is getting the graphics engine from the new Call of Duty: Vanguard by the end of the year. This is likely to bring many gameplay elements of the new CoD to Warzone. A small change in movement could then have a significant impact on how we move around in the Battle Royale.
What is it about? The change with Call of Duty: Vanguard involves a slight delay in tactical sprinting after a slide cancel. So far, you could, with a trick in Warzone, go straight back into tactically sprinting after sliding.
The professional trick is widely used in the community and is heavily utilized to move faster and more safely across the map. However, with the Vanguard technique, the speed advantage might be a thing of the past, which could significantly change the movement.
Run faster or be harder to hit – What is more important?
Why is this such a big deal? The slide cancel is an extremely powerful technique in Warzone and is widely used.
This is because by constantly moving, you realign your hit zones on your body. Snipers can hardly land headshots on you because your head is constantly moving. Additionally, you are a bit faster in Warzone when you dash across the map with the slide cancel.
Moreover, the trick is quite simple and drastically improves your movement with a little practice.
How does the slide cancel change with Vanguard? When you come out of the slide, the tactical sprint does not start immediately. There is a delay of about half a second before you start the faster sprint again.
To utilize the speed boost, you have to wait a moment, so you can’t initiate the next slide cancel right away. This leads to your hit zones being less in motion.
On the other hand – if you keep using the slide cancel continuously, you no longer have the high speed of the current trick.
How this will affect gameplay remains to be seen. But it seems you will have to decide: either you move faster or you are safer. Both may no longer be possible.
If you want to compare the two versions of the slide cancel, check out the English video from CoD expert “TheXclusiveAce”:

How does the slide cancel work? It is actually a kind of exploit that bypasses the mechanics around tactical sprinting. With tactical sprinting, you can run slightly faster than normal, and the slide cancel allows you to bypass the cooldown of tactical sprinting.
The trick is regarded as a kind of “positive exploit”. The slide cancel is seen as a move that you need to learn if you want to improve. Timing is especially important; otherwise, the trick is quite simple:
Slide-Cancel in Warzone:
Activate tactical sprint
Press the button to slide
While sliding, press the slide button again
Then press the jump button
Start tactical sprint again
Once you slide, you can cancel the sliding by pressing again, thus “canceling”. However, after that, you are crouched and need to press the jump button to get back up. By pressing the jump button, the tactical sprint is partially reset, and when you stand up again, you can go straight back into super sprint.
You need to activate the buttons relatively quickly one after the other. If you make a small jump after sliding, you pressed the jump button a bit too late. For an optimal slide cancel, enable “Slide on button press” instead of “Hold down” and “Automatic tactical sprint” in the settings.
Is this really coming to Warzone? It is currently uncertain. The multiplayer experience of Vanguard serves as the model for the new Warzone, and currently, it looks like the Battle Royale will play just like the multiplayer by the end of the year.
However, real details are still missing. Also, when Warzone will switch to the Vanguard engine with the Pacific update is still unclear. So far, it’s only said: by the end of the year, around the Vanguard release.
Expert XclusiveAce hopes for a separation here and would like to see the old slide cancel in the new Warzone as well. However, he finds the change quite sensible for multiplayer. In which form the slide cancel will come to both shooters cannot be said for sure at this time.
In FIFA 22, players are currently hoping for upgrades for their new special cards based on real results from football. Bayer Leverkusen has now slightly hindered such an upgrade – and jokingly apologizes via Twitter.
What’s going on? Currently, the “Road to the Knockouts” event is running in FIFA 22 with special cards that become better as the respective teams achieve certain milestones in European competitions.
One such card has also been given to Nabil Fekir from Betis Sevilla. It is currently particularly popular among FIFA players because:
First, he is available through an SBC. So you don’t need to pull him from packs or use the transfer market.
Second, he already has really good stats.
Accordingly, many players are hoping that Fekir might get two upgrades.
One, if Betis Sevilla wins three out of four group matches in the Europa League.
And the second, if Betis Sevilla advances to the knockout phase.
No wonder that many players are rooting for Betis Sevilla for FIFA reasons right now. But those following the Europa League have seen: In the recent match, there was only a 1:1 – against the German club Bayer Leverkusen. The funny thing is: The “Werkself” apparently knows that some FIFA players had bet on Betis.
Leverkusen’s joking apology regarding Fekir
Already on the day of the match, Bayer Leverkusen wrote a short message on their English-speaking Twitter channel, which was received with amusement in the FIFA community:
“Dear Football Twitter. Please stop asking us for a loss at #BetisB04 [match hashtag] so you can get your Fekir upgrade. We need the 3 points and more special cards for our players. Thank you. Sincerely, Bayer 04 Leverkusen.”
This post already caused laughter among some FIFA fans. Among others, FIFA YouTuber Zweback responded directly with a post and tried to persuade Leverkusen perhaps not to win:
Dear Leverkusen,
Normally, we want you to win in this situation. But Fekir is a very special card and you have the best card in the game aka POTM Flo Wirtz. So we ask you, just this one time, maybe not to win. And not to win in the next game either. Thanks. Sincerely, The FIFA community
This is how the match went: Betis Sevilla and Leverkusen met on Thursday evening, October 21st. For those eyeing Fekir upgrades, it looked good fifteen minutes before the end: After a handball, there was a penalty for Betis Sevilla, which Iglesias converted to make it 1:0.
But to the joy of all Leverkusen fans – and presumably to the frustration of all Fekir fans – the “Werkself” managed to equalize. Leverkusen’s Andrich shot in the 82nd minute, the shot was deflected and ended up in the net. Even a win was still within reach for Leverkusen – but it remained a draw.
And here Leverkusen also responded again – with a nice apology to the FIFA fans:

Is the Fekir upgrade off the table now? No, because Betis still has three group matches left that they could win. So, theoretically. There is one more against Leverkusen, and then against Celtic Glasgow and Ferencváros Budapest.
Three wins are of course highly ambitious. If that doesn’t work out, there is still the possible upgrade for advancing. Because in the group table, Leverkusen and Sevilla are at the top with 7 points each and still unbeaten.
The tech channel “Gamers Nexus” tests various hardware for gamers. This time, the YouTuber tested a giant fan. Initially, it was meant as a joke, and not everything went smoothly in the test.
Here’s what it’s about: Most of us probably have a fan installed in our gaming PCs. These fans ensure that the air inside the case is exchanged. This is especially important if you want to keep your PC cool in the summer. On average, most case fans are between 120 and 140 mm in size and can thus be installed in almost any standard case.
Now, the tech channel “Gamers Nexus” on YouTube has tested a computer fan, but it’s huge and almost as large as a gaming PC. Officially, it was likely a joke from the manufacturer Corsair, but “Gamers Nexus” really wanted to test the fan.

However, not everything went smoothly with the fan test, and the channel explained what problems they encountered during testing.
The fan is so huge that you have to mount it instead of the side panel.
The world’s largest computer fan is 4 times larger than a normal fan
Corsair provides not only the fan but also the necessary accessories such as cables and screws. The screws to mount the fan are as big as the tester’s fingers and don’t really fit into a normal gaming case. Therefore, the tester had to mount the fan instead of the computer’s side panel.
This also means that the view of the installed hardware is obstructed. If you’re considering buying such a fan, at least you don’t need to install any additional RGB lighting in your PC.
These are the problems: Initially, not everything went smoothly in the test. The fan made strange noises. They had therefore asked Corsair if they could run the unit for 30 minutes for thermal tests or if there would be any issues. Corsair denied the problems and said the test would be okay. However, after 10 minutes, the fan stopped, and there was a smell of burnt electronics.
How was the problem solved? A technician disassembled the fan and quickly found the cause: The gears inside do not mesh perfectly and have high friction resistance. As a result, the motor has to work harder and overheats too quickly. Corsair should install a stronger motor in the future to avoid these problems.
After disassembling, the technician reinserted an identical model into the fan, and the device worked again. They conducted another test afterward. However, they did not want to conduct a second test, as they feared the risk of further damage.

The giant fan shows good temperature values in the test
Here’s how they tested: “Gamers Nexus” tested the fan with the MSI Sakira 500X. According to the YouTuber, the case has one of the worst case designs he has ever seen. For this reason, he wanted to test the new fan on it.
This is the test result: In the test, the temperatures in the case improved noticeably.
The closed case has an internal temperature of 67.8 degrees Celsius without a fan
With the fan activated, the temperatures drop to 48.2 degrees Celsius, which is a significant improvement over the standard.
The temperatures of the chipset on the motherboard also drop by about 10 degrees Celsius, which is also a good improvement.
What do you think? Do you consider the giant fan a successful joke by Corsair, or would you also install such a fan in your own gaming PC? Let us know in the comments!
By the way, it doesn’t actually take a single fan to keep a computer cool. A YouTuber demonstrated this by building a fascinating PC with a ventilation system that works like a lung. He doesn’t install any fans, but the computer has become quite large:
In League of Legends , the World Championships are taking place in Iceland. The European team Fnatic has already been eliminated. The team’s jungler, Gabriël “Bwipo” Rau (23), says that during the LoL Worlds 2021, fans attacked his girlfriend hard. They allegedly even sent her death threats.
This is what Bwipo says: In a post on Twitter, Bwipo explains his situation (via twitlonger). The news that Upset was leaving the Worlds hit the 23-year-old hard. Especially since the information came so shortly before the first game and without warning, it emotionally broke Bwipo.
“I broke down crying because I knew we had lost. I didn’t know what to do. All our success came from the bot lane. Without them, I saw no way forward.”
Bwipo
The jungler says: He just couldn’t cope with the situation, not after 16 hours, not after 40 hours, and not after 64 hours: Losing everything he had worked for broke him.
What this has to do with his girlfriend: Bwipo emphasizes what an important role his girlfriend plays for him personally and also for the team Fnatic. She has always supported him over the last 3 years, has put her own life on hold, and has always been there for him. She also helped him keep Fnatic together, radiating good vibes and hope – without her, Fnatic would have crumbled in week 2 of the Worlds, believes Bwipo.
Even when he was struggling with the news that Upset was leaving the team, his girlfriend supported him.
At that moment, he wanted nothing more than to be with her. Bwipo wanted to go home, talk to her. He simply didn’t understand why he should continue to endure the Worlds. But his girlfriend persuaded him to stay.
Bwipo found the whole situation unbearable: He unfollowed Fnatic and the management in a fit of anger and frustration. Everything felt so unfair.
However, according to Bwipo, his fans apparently misread the situation completely from the outside and are now blaming his girlfriend for Bwipo seeming so distracted. His own fans and the community sent her death threats, attacked and insulted her for weeks. And Bwipo let that happen.
Bwipo says his girlfriend has always done everything to support him and Fnatic. And he has done nothing but let her take the blame for everything, even though she is not at fault.
She has now left social media – because of all the suffering and the death threats. He will do the same.

In the month leading up to the Worlds, Bwipo repeatedly emphasized on Twitter how much his girlfriend supported him.
What’s next? There is currently no statement from Bwipo regarding his future, but rumors are already circulating that he is leaving Fnatic and looking for a new team as a free agent in 2022 (via twitter).
It seems like a lot has fallen apart during the LoL Worlds 2021.
Apparently a “Yoko Ono” situation
What’s behind this: Bwipo shows his affection for his girlfriend repeatedly on Twitter, in interviews, and also in LoL itself. For example, he hovers over the champion “Kai’Sa” in the champion select as a nod to her. In the month before the LoL Worlds, he often tweeted about her, expressing how much he misses her and how much he owes her.
Apparently, these public displays of affection have somehow led to parts of the community, especially the French-speaking one, forming a view of a kind of “Yoko Ono” figure that is supposedly ruining Fnatic, just as Yoko Ono is said to have ruined The Beatles.
When Bwipo then found himself in an exceptional situation and couldn’t cope with the loss of Upset, it seems the situation escalated. It shows how challenging it is for esports athletes when their private life becomes too public on social media.

World of Warcraft has less content than ever before – and players have noticed. The direct comparison makes many angry.
World of Warcraft is currently far from soaring. Criticism of Blizzard is growing, not only due to the sexism scandal but also because of the content in the MMORPG. It has been rather poor for quite some time now. Players in the WoW subreddit have recently looked back and noted: We have had only one content patch per year.
Why are players so dissatisfied? There are several reasons for this. For one, World of Warcraft is still a “premium game.” It not only requires a subscription but also a new expansion that must be purchased approximately every two years.
The second point is that other games with a similar cost offer significantly more and provide two to three major content patches per year.
When I informed myself about patch 9.1.5, I just realized that we have only received one content patch per year for the last two years. One was in January 2020 and one in June 2021. And if the rumors are true, then we will only get one in 2022. […]
I know a lot is going on at Blizzard right now, but what exactly are we currently paying a subscription for?
By “content patches,” they actually mean the major patches that bring real new features and content. The much smaller “X.5” patches are not included.
Then the statement is indeed correct. Patch 8.3 was released in January 2020, the Shadowlands expansion came out in November, and the only major content patch from Shadowlands was patch 9.1, which was released in June.
The players are angry – WoW simply gets too few patches.
Another Reddit user, AmericanPicketFence, compares the patch speed of Shadowlands with the speed of updates from earlier expansions and paints a grim picture:
In Mists of Pandaria, patch 5.4 came out roughly at the same time that patch 9.1.5 is now being released.
Warlords of Draenor had patch 6.2.3 around the same time as patch 9.1.5 is now. […]
In Legion, a year after its launch, there was just the fourth raid tier with patch 7.3. At the same time, we are still in the second raid tier in Shadowlands and have no idea when 9.2 will come out.
Around the same time as patch 9.1.5, Battle for Azeroth released two much larger zones [than Korthia] and its third raid tier; it also introduced new crafting materials. Compare that to Shadowlands, where some professions simply stop at 75 because they couldn’t be bothered to provide more.
By the way, they charge €13 per month for that.
The mood remains rather bleak, and objectively speaking, there is simply too little happening in World of Warcraft right now compared to previous expansions.

Why is nothing happening in WoW right now? There are likely a number of reasons for this. For one, World of Warcraft has suffered massively due to the Covid pandemic. Even the release of Shadowlands had to be postponed because the developers couldn’t finish it on time. This delay has now been carried forward from patch to patch and is likely to extend into 2022 until the next WoW expansion is announced.
At the same time, the WoW team has struggled with harsh criticism of the available content. Many game contents were disliked by players, so a lot of time had to be invested in improvements. This too is likely to drastically delay the development of new content.
What is clear, however, is that loyal WoW fans are facing tough times in the coming months, and new content will take a while to arrive. Whether Blizzard will manage to give Shadowlands a worthy ending remains to be seen.
The MMO New World offers the possibility to level up through gathering, crafting and some neutral quests. The player oRobozinho was the first to reach level 60 without killing any monsters. He spoke about his experiences in a short stream.
What has the player achieved? oRobozinho is the first player to publicly prove that he has reached the maximum level 60 in New World without a kill.
In a livestream on Twitch, he showed his “Vegan-Run” and presented his achievements accordingly. In not a single category did he kill an enemy. Additionally, he still had the quest for level 2 in First Light in the main story.
How did he do it? He leveled up mainly through two methods. One through city quests, for which he did not have to kill enemies, and the other through crafting.
What’s crazy is that he used the gathering tools and swapping of the first tier until the end of the run. Nevertheless, he got very far:
He brought the gathering professions of logging, mining and harvesting all to level 200
He also leveled smelting and woodworking to 200 in refining, and leveled stonemasonry and weaving significantly over 100
In the manufacturing professions, he only surpassed 100 in 3 professions – jewel crafting, arcana and cooking.
Skinning, fishing, leatherworking as well as the professions of weapon smithing and armor smithing remained at 0
He also completed some faction missions, for which he did not have to defeat any enemies either. You can check out his achievements and more information about the run in this video:

Did he really not kill an enemy? No, because in the tutorial he was forced to defeat one enemy to learn attacking and defending. However, this kill was not counted towards any of his achievements.
At the end of the video, in which he presents his account, he kills a rabbit to “ruin” his account, as he happily tells. No one can take away from him his great success of reaching level 60 without a kill.
What do you think of this achievement? Can you imagine reaching level 60 in New World without kills or does it sound too laborious to you? And how far have you leveled so far?
A new task that oRobozinho could now tackle is crafting legendary armor. You can find a guide on this:
