The Free2Play successor to Pro Evolution Soccer “eFootball” has been released today. However, the first feedback about the competitor to FIFA 22 looks not good at all.
This is eFootball: eFootball is the free downloadable successor to the Pro Evolution Soccer series and aims to score with crossplay among other features. While crossplay is not a factor in FIFA 22, eFootball runs on PlayStation 5 and 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC, and also on mobile platforms iOS and Android.
A year-long pause was intentionally placed on the originally regular annual PES releases to complete the new game in Unreal Engine 5. Now, the game started a day before the official FIFA 22 release in version 0.9, which is expected to expand with upcoming updates adding modes and content.
However, the first feedback on the new title is anything but favorable.
eFootball receives terrible ratings on Steam, community is upset
These are the reactions: On Steam, eFootball is currently rated “very negative.” Out of currently 4,842 ratings (as of September 30, 6:00 PM), only 9% of the ratings are positive.
The reviews of the game reflect this. There is criticism of many parts of the game, from gameplay to graphics. Previously, it was actually always the gameplay that players praised compared to the FIFA series. Many players compare it to a mobile game – and suspect that the problem is that the game is designed for all possible platforms, including mobile platforms.
In the PES subreddit and the new eFootball subreddit, the feedback is negative. PES players are discussing images and videos from the game or posting memes about how they expected something completely different:

“It’s just a mobile game. The ball weighs 100 kg, the collisions between players are chaotic, nothing feels right. It’s a shame” (User GaryTheSnail via Steam).
“I have always been a big fan of PES and have always seen it as the best game because the gameplay has always been unmatched for me. But what eFootball 2022 offers is by far the worst football game I’ve ever played. Unrealistic body movements, passing is incredibly difficult and some unrealistic and unpredictable. Defensive duels also rely on pure luck. Even as a PES veteran, it feels like you’re playing a football game for the first time,” says user “TTV | Dento” (via Steam).
“Listing which aspects have massively deteriorated compared to previous years would take too long. Despite the F2P status, I would advise everyone against trying this software experiment. The online servers have potential since they are dedicated for the first time. Everything else is hopelessly outdated,” says user Ma77es (via Steam).
Such and similar are the first reactions to the game. Positive feedback is currently scarce. At best, players are asked to give the game a longer chance.
Whether a turnaround can be expected with further updates and expansions in the coming weeks remains open for now. As it stands, the PES community is disappointed with the new direction the series is taking.
Meanwhile, FIFA 22 is heading towards its complete release. However, another competitor for the EA series could emerge in the future: In the summer, “UFL” was introduced, which is also said to be free to play and aims to come with many licenses.

In the MMORPG Elder Scrolls Online, a new quest is now available for everyone – free of charge. “An Apocalyptic Situation” directly leads into the last DLC of the year, Deadwood, and begins the finale of the current story.
What is this prologue? “An Apocalyptic Situation” is a new, free quest in Elder Scrolls Online. It serves as the prologue for the upcoming expansion Deadwood, which will be released at the end of 2021.
Deadwood is also the conclusion of the year-long story “Gates of Oblivion“, and accordingly, the new quest brings you closer to the Deadlands, the realm of Mehrunes Dagon. The current DLC Blackwood thus also comes to its conclusion. To refresh your memory: Here is everything you need to know about Blackwood.
The Dremora Lyranth calls for your help so that you can take a closer look at the machinations of the Order of the Awakening Flame. “An Apocalyptic Situation” and the follow-up quest lead directly into the actions of Deadlands.
We cannot say exactly how the quest will unfold yet. However, you will learn more about the plans of Mehrunes Dagon and discover new worlds as well as encounter new enemies.
How do I get the quest? The prologue is free for all players who own ESO. You can simply purchase it in the Crown Store without having to pay anything for it. You do not need any previous DLCs or chapters.
The quest is available starting today, September 30th, in the shop. For completing the quest and the follow-up quest, you will receive a stylish, unique mask:
These stylish masks await you.
Deadlands will be the last DLC for 2021
With Deadlands, the story arc of the year-long tale “Gates of Oblivion” concludes, in which you, as a player, are supposed to close the aforementioned gates to the realm of Oblivion again. Deadlands is expected to be released in the fall, but a precise date is yet to be confirmed.
November is possible, as during Deadlands, the new Update 32 should also be released, in which you will finally receive the loot you still need. According to Bethesda, the update is expected in November.
How exactly things will proceed with ESO in 2022 can currently only be speculated. Perhaps you will not succeed in closing the gates at all, and Mehrunes Dagon will also be the great antagonist of the next expansion? You will likely have to wait for the answer.
A small component could mean that you can no longer play on your PS4 someday. Now Sony has apparently solved the problem with update 9.0.0. A user has successfully tested this now.
This is the component in question: Every PS4 contains a so-called CMOS battery. It is mounted on the motherboard and supplies power to the volatile CMOS memory, as it would otherwise be cleared. The battery also powers the real-time clock of the motherboard.
This is the problem: The problem is that the clock is responsible for the time and the calendar. When the battery is empty, the system can no longer set the calendar correctly. To determine the correct time, the PS4 must connect to the PlayStation Network (PSN).
If the battery is removed for replacement or fails, the system cannot correctly place the real calendar. This forces the PS4 to reconnect to the PSN to determine the correct time. This time check occurs every time you want to play a digital or physical game. This prevents you from starting a game too early or gathering achievements.
Before update 9.0.0, the time check could not be completed with an empty battery, as the console could not connect to the PSN. However, this also means that you cannot start a game, as the time cannot be checked.
Once Sony turns off the PSN servers on the PS4 or your console is offline for a long time, your console can no longer perform the time check. Without a time check, your PS4 cannot start any games.
How long does the battery last? Normally, a CMOS battery lasts between 10 and 20 years. Even if your console is turned off, the battery is used because otherwise the console could not save the time.
Sony has apparently silently solved the battery problem
This is what happened: Sony deployed update 9.0.0 on the PlayStation 4 in September 2021. YouTuber “Destruction Games” tested after the update whether the battery problem has been solved.
First, he tried to start a digital copy on the PS4 without a battery and without an internet connection with old firmware. He was not able to get the game running this way.
On the second attempt, he installed update 9.0.0, also removed the battery from the PS4, and disabled the internet. Now he was able to start both a digital game and a disc. Even if the clock is set to an earlier date, it still works.
In his YouTube video, he presents the problem in detail and explains how he tested it exactly. We have embedded the video here for you:

Destruction Games tested if Sony has fixed the bug.
Is everything official? No, because Sony has not officially commented on this. Even in the patch notes of 9.0.0, there is no mention of addressing battery issues.
The battery lasts many years, but it is normal for servers to be turned off
Why is the update so important? The biggest risk for PS4 owners would have been that Sony eventually turns off the PSN servers for the PlayStation 4. The time check would then no longer work, and the console would also not work.
In a future where every gamer has a PlayStation 5 under the TV and can play PS4 games thanks to backward compatibility, this may only play a subordinate role.
The thought of shutting down is by the way not entirely far-fetched: Sony wanted to turn off online services on the PlayStation 3 in July 2021 but decided against it after severe criticism from gamers.
In the future, users will not have to rely on complicated workarounds or alternative firmware if they want to play on their PS4.
In addition to the PS4, the PS5 has also received a major update
Who else benefited from the update? The PlayStation 5 has also received a major update simultaneously with the PlayStation 4. The most important feature is certainly the support for SSD drives that you can now install in your console. We have compiled all the important information about the PS5 update here on MeinMMO for you.
The rivercress (engl. Riverkress) is a plant in New World that is needed for the quest “Weakness of the Ego.” We at MeinMMO reveal where to find it and how to harvest the rivercress stem.
Where can you find rivercress? You can also win rivercress from rivercress stems. However, this plant only grows near water bodies such as rivers or lakes.
You will find it mostly in the areas of Everfall and Windsward.
A larger collection of rivercress can be found at the transition between the two areas near the northern fort of Windsward, as shown on the map NewWorld-Map:
In general, we recommend this map to find other resources like iron or oil as well.
What is rivercress used for? Most players will stumble upon rivercress when they want to complete the quest “Weakness of the Ego.” This is part of the main questline.
New World celebrated its release yesterday, on September 28, but has since been struggling with queues. Amazon’s server capacity simply was not enough to handle the influx of players.
New World differs from traditional theme park MMORPGs. This is why some players make mistakes that could actually be easily avoided. We at MeinMMO have identified 7 classic beginner mistakes so that you can avoid them.
What is this about? These 7 beginner mistakes are about general things that you can easily get wrong without thinking much about it. We will reveal what is problematic about them and how you can do better.
What’s the problem? New World places a lot of importance on weight. There are two components where you can make mistakes:
On the one hand, your inventory has a weight overall. If it is too high, you can no longer fight properly and move more slowly.
On the other hand, your equipment has a weight. This weight plays an important role.
How can you do better? For problem 1, it is generally important to keep an eye on your inventory weight. You can see it permanently at the bottom right of the screen next to your skills. If the weight is too high, you may need to drop some items from your inventory.
Problem 2 depends entirely on your preferred playstyle:
With light armor, you deal 20% more damage and have a wider dodge roll. However, you also receive significantly more damage.
With medium armor, you deal 10% more damage and spend 10% less time in crowd control. However, the dodge roll becomes smaller.
With heavy armor, you only have a tiny dodge step. However, you take less damage, spend 20% less time in crowd control, and have increased block chance.
However, always pay attention to the weight of your armor, otherwise you may be surprised that your dodge roll is suddenly gone.
Bonus tip: Repair your gear regularly!
All about weights in the inventory.
2. You are spending your area XP incorrectly
What’s the problem? Over the course of your gameplay, you will accumulate reputation in the areas, for example, by killing monsters and completing quests. However, many only use this progress for short-term bonuses.
They unlock additional experience points or faster earning of area reputation. However, this is only short-term thinking.
Once you have reached level 60 or maximized the reputation of the area, you will no longer benefit from the bonuses.
How can you do better? You should think long-term about the reputation bonuses. Particularly effective are:
Lower crafting fees
More storage space
Lower costs for the trading post
Think long-term rather than short-term for your reputation.
3. You don’t have a real “capital”
What’s the problem? New World gives you freedom when leveling. You can choose the area where you want to complete quests and you must travel through all areas for the main story anyway. This invites you to level in all areas and cities.
But that’s a mistake.
How can you do better? Choose a fixed city where you want to quest. Set your inn or your first own house there and level up there with the help of settlement quests and the faction board.
A fixed headquarters brings several advantages:
You only gather reputation for one area and unlock better bonuses
You get to know the surroundings and routes
You store your items and materials in one place and not in different cities where you forget them
The best cities for your personal capitals are Immerfall and Windkreis. They are centrally located, allowing you to explore the world from there. However, it is also helpful to choose a capital that belongs to your faction.
4. You don’t buy a house
What’s the problem? Many players hesitate to buy their own house at the beginning. But that is also a mistake.
How can you do better? From level 15, you can own your first own home. You should do this for the following reasons:
Every house provides a fast travel option. Depending on its size, the cooldown is between 2 to 4 hours. However, this can be reset using Azoth, which is cheaper than fast travel with Azoth.
You receive buffs through trophies that help you in the game.
You gain additional storage space.
The houses cost between 5,000 and 20,000 coins, but in the end, the investment is definitely worth it.
Houses bring you a lot of advantages.
5. You’re not traveling properly through the world
What’s the problem? In New World, you often have to cover long distances and tedious walking routes. But just walking straight takes too long.
It is better to know the small tricks and nuances when traveling.
How can you do better? There are several tricks.
Trick 1 is that you make a larger dodge roll when wearing light armor. This allows you to cover more distance when using a dodge roll while running.
Trick 2 builds on the first trick. If you cancel the dodge roll just before the end, you won’t get stuck in the animation thereafter – the so-called aftercast. To do this, switch weapons just before the end of the roll. That way, you won’t stop.
Trick 3 is related to fast travel. The heavier your equipment is, the more Azoth it costs to teleport to another city.
Trick 4: Just die if you have no city nearby but want to quickly hand in your completed quests in a settlement. You can respawn directly in the city after death.
Trick 5 involves spreading your free fast travel options widely. You can travel for free to the inn, your first house, and starting from levels 35 and 55 also to house 2 and 3. If you distribute these options well throughout the game world, traveling will be easy!
Trick 6: Collect all the fast travel points and cities you can find along the way.
What’s the problem? New World offers a completely different combat system than many MMORPG players are used to. However, there are many nuances in combat that you should pay attention to and to which we can give you tips.
How can you do better? First of all, the rule is that you should experiment a lot, especially at the beginning. You should try out different weapons and can reset your attributes for free until level 20, which is important for the different weapons.
It is also important that you should either block or dodge incoming attacks from enemies. This saves you important health points.
Furthermore, a useful tip is that you can land guaranteed critical hits:
With ranged weapons, a headshot is always critical
In melee combat, you have to hit your enemy from behind to land a crit
We have collected further useful tips around fighting in this article:
What’s the problem? Every company that owns a settlement can set the taxes that are levied there. However, not every company is fair.
How can you do better? Orient yourself to savvy tax experts and find the place that charges the lowest taxes. There you can carry out your crafting and trading activities.

The most interesting details in the universe of Destiny 2 are often placed subtly and initially inconspicuously by Bungie. In the Season of the Lost, a certain weapon has now returned that means no good for all main characters.Bungie confirms: “This is not a coincidence,” thereby spoiling the future death of an NPC in the upcoming expansion Witch Queen.
In the past, Bungie has been willing to let very popular characters die dramatically to keep the story exciting. In the very successful DLC Forsaken, it was Cayde-6. Now a major loss is looming again, and it is the same weapon as before that has revealed this to us.
This weapon is: “Spoiler Alert” is a legendary pistol in Destiny 2. It was first added to the game in May 2018 when the “Destiny 2: Warmind” DLC was released. With the start of the current Season of the Lost in August 2021, the pistol has now returned to the Vanguard’s loot pool.
Why “Spoiler Alert” is so special: The weapon itself is basically nothing special. But those who read its description find out: “Someone will die.”
Normally, this is nothing new, one might think. After all, players in Destiny 2 are constantly taking down enemies with their weapons. But with this pistol, it’s a bit different. It can see into the future and has proven this in the past.
“Spoiler Alert” evokes bad memories: Bungie has already announced the demise of a beloved character in Destiny 2 with the pistol “Spoiler Alert”. Back then, in the Forsaken expansion, it was Cayde-6, and that was a severe loss for many players that still hurts today.
No wonder that players wondered if the return of the pistol was really just a coincidence.
In a chat interview with GamesRadar, Nikko Stevens, Senior Narrative Designer at Bungie, specifically dismissed the possibility of a mere coincidence.
Bungie confirms: “This is not a coincidence.”
When asked about this in the interview, Nikko Stevens said, “This is not a coincidence.” He did not want to reveal more and added, “That’s all I will say.”
It is therefore very likely that a main character will die in the upcoming expansion “Witch Queen”. Players are already speculating about which popular character is at the top of Bungie’s hit list.
These main characters are currently in question:
Commander Zavala: He was already speculated to be the next main character to die in the last Season of the Chosen. That has not been confirmed. Therefore, many players consider this rather unlikely. His role in the current Season 15 is anyhow only minor.
Ikora Rey: She is already closer to the current events surrounding the machinations of Savathun. After her mentor Osiris went missing, Ikora tries to understand the connections. It is quite possible that she will become important again in the upcoming DLC Witch Queen. But if Ikora, the Warlock Vanguard, is indeed to die, what will remain of the Vanguard?
Mara Sov: If her brilliant plan doesn’t work out, she might die trying to outsmart Savathun. It wouldn’t be the first time. Mara Sov already died at the beginning of the “Taken King” in 2016. But would anyone really mourn her, knowing that she manipulatively sacrifices her own family?
Crow, formerly Uldren Sov: After Crow learned this week in the ongoing story of Season 15 who he really is, one wonders if he can find peace with that. Current events indicate that he has traveled to Venus to do something that even his spirit doesn’t know. However, he is also the character most integrated into the stories of Seasons 14 and 15. Perhaps with the start of Witch Queen, he will find his true purpose. It is more likely though that he will continue Cayde’s bet and take his place in the Vanguard.
Osiris: He is favored by most players and insider sources as one of the most likely candidates. Savathun used Osiris in the last Season 14 to infiltrate the city and spy on the Guardians. After this deception became known, the question arises whether Osiris is truly being held captive or if he is already dead. The 14th Saint would hit hard by this news. He is still looking for his partner.
Eris Morn: A main character who currentlyplays no role at all is Eris Morn. But players think she is not the most unlikely candidate.
In the aforementioned interview, Bungie specifically also addressed Eris and stated: “Eris has not quite succeeded, but that doesn’t mean we aren’t interested in telling stories with Eris. It just means we’ll tell this story in a different release.”
For Eris or “Muddle Morn”, as players affectionately call her, that would definitely complete the circle. She has already endured much from Savathun, and perhaps her sacrifice will ensure that the Hive Queen can be finally defeated.
More secrets and more aboutDestiny 2 can be found here:
In addition to the announcement that a main character will soon leave Destiny 2, Bungie has revealed even more to the players.
Caiatl is not the last we have seen of her. She is currently communicating with Zavala to discuss current developments, such as the “Savathun situation” in the Dreaming City.
Mithrax and Saint-14 will be more in focus in the story again in the future.
Calus, the first raid boss of Destiny 2 and Caiatl’s father, is not dead. This will make many players happy as his character is very popular. Maybe we’ll meet him again in a corrupted form?
Bungie believes that players still do not realize how important Xivu Arath is and will be. Besides Savathun, we should not take our eyes off her either.
What do you think? Which main character must leave Destiny 2 soon and which one would you personally be most reluctant to part with? Or was Cayde the biggest loss for you so far? Let us know in the comments.

In YouTuber’s Life 2 you should become a star
When will the game be released and what is it about? On October 19, 2021, YouTubers Life 2 will be released on PC (via Steam Store). In the influencer simulation, your overarching goal is to become the biggest YouTuber in the world.
Sorry, you will be “NewTuber”, because the video platform where you share your content is not called YouTube despite the game name. Additionally, you can also share your content through the fictional platforms Glitch and InstaLife.
This is where you start with simple content and earn new opportunities for content creation with growing followership and fame.
Your self-created character also has to meet daily tasks like eating, sleeping, and leisure time – including dates with co-creators. The latter can be designed more diversely in YouTubers Life 2 than in its predecessor.
How about starting with a shopping trip through the freely explorable city of NewTube City, complete with harbor and town hall? You can also make this trip with an e-scooter. Moreover, you can design your own apartment or house more diversely.
What do you think about it? Are you excited for YouTubers Life 2 or do you stay away from the life of an influencer? Share your opinion in the comments, we are curious.

The concerns of WoW players are coming true. Blizzard is turning women into men – but maybe that’s actually better now?
Since the sexism and discrimination scandal at Blizzard has come to the forefront, several changes are in store for World of Warcraft. In the latest version of the PTR of Patch 9.1.5, the upcoming update, dataminers from wowhead have noticed new changes. Blizzard is simply turning some women into men.
What was found? In the original Karazhan raid, there is a somewhat special wing of Medivh’s home. In “The Guest Rooms”, where the boss “The Virtuous Maid” resides, players have always been able to find a number of rather unusual enemies. Lightly dressed ladies who were apparently there to entertain the other guests and earn a few coins.
Blizzard has now made changes here. Some of the women have been replaced by men and therefore now also have male names.
This is what it currently looks like in Karazhan – some ladies are waiting for visitors.
What kind of NPCs are they? They are mobs like the “Wanton Hostess”, “Night Mistress” and “Concubine”.
The NPCs in the corresponding wing of Karazhan are relatively obviously prostitutes – or at least they were during their lifetimes. Because now they are just the ghosts of the past. This is not only evident from their names, such as “Night Mistress” or “Wanton Hostess”, but also from the sentences they sometimes utter. They have clear double entendres that allude to sexual actions, such as:
“Just five seconds! I’m serious!”
“And then he asked if the gnome could join – can you imagine that? Honestly, it wasn’t that bad …”
“So I said: ‘Yes, but that will cost you extra.'”
“<sigh> It’s always over so quickly …”
“They always fall asleep afterwards. I already during …”
So, these ladies were not exactly “normal undead”, as some of them transform into succubi in battle. The new male counterparts now take on the form of a satyr.
What are the mobs called now? In addition to the introduction of the male variants of these enemies, the names have also been slightly adjusted. Again, the term “Concubine” has been removed and replaced with something else.
Concubines will now be “Zealous Paramour” in the female variant and “Zealous Consort” in the male version.
The “Night Lady” remains unchanged, but some of them are now male and are called “Night Lord”.
The “Wanton Hostess” will now become a “Wanton Host” and will no longer transform into a (clearly female) banshee upon death, but into a neutral wraith.
New names and shapes are also being added. Source of the image: wowhead
The exact English translations are still missing; so far, only the English variants have been changed – but this is quite common on the PTR, where the translation usually comes shortly before the patch release.
More about the changes in World of Warcraft can be found here:
Is this good or bad? Basically, this change seems to be received a bit better by players than the others. When Blizzard replaced an image of a woman with fruit, there was a huge outcry. Many felt that instead of completely banning any form of sexuality and nudity, they should just add an image of a lightly dressed man.
In Karazhan, Blizzard seems to have exactly implemented this, turning some ladies of the night into a few gentlemen.
What do you think of this adjustment? A better solution for the images? Or is it still silly and should not be changed at all?

If you get setup recommendations for Call of Duty: Warzone from English sources, the translation of the attachment names can certainly cause problems. MeinMMO therefore shows you important attachments from CoD MW and Cold War with English translations.
The English names of the attachments do not always correspond well with the English translations. For example, there is the “Bruiser Grip”. A strong underbarrel attachment, which is called “Bruiser Grip” in English. Or the “Cavalry Lancer” barrel, which becomes the “Cavalry Lancer” barrel in English.
If you are looking for translations of the attachments, you are in the right place. We have translated many of the attachments for you, and with one click you can get to the category you are looking for:
If you are missing any attachments in the list, feel free to let us know in the comments. We will add the corresponding attachments to the list.

The long wait times in the new MMO New World continue to be a problem. Now we can see how the developers want to address the issues. The servers in Australia reportedly offer more space.
What is the problem? Since the release of New World, some servers have been ruthlessly overloaded. Hours-long queues are the result. Although the team has opened many more new servers, players who prefer certain worlds still have to wait a long time.
The Amazon Game Studios team has already announced that they are working on server capacities. And what this looks like can now be seen unofficially.
Testing 500 additional slots per server
This is known: Currently, the limit per server was 2,000 players. Everything beyond that ended up in a queue that gradually let players onto the servers as others logged out.
On the website Newworldstatus.com you can check the current server capacities and the average wait times per world. However, the site is unofficial, so take the data with a grain of skepticism.
In the data of the website, it can be seen that some Australian servers are now operating with a capacity of over 2,000. It is assumed that the new cap is now set at 2,500 players on these test servers. Nevertheless, more than 1,000 additional players are still in the queue. So, will the cap of 2,500 players be sufficient?
Source: New World Status on September 30
Some of the servers apparently also have a limit of 2,250 players. It’s quite possible that the developers are still actively adjusting the numbers and searching for a sweet spot. Because when increasing the player limit, a balance must be struck between “We want many players on the servers and low wait times” and “Performance.”
This is what Amazon has said so far: The New World team has already reached out to the community with messages addressing the acute server problems. They mentioned these tests:
“We know that some players are experiencing longer wait times, and we are working hard on a few things to fix these issues. We are bringing additional servers online and will expand the capacity of our existing servers as soon as we have properly tested these changes.”
How long these tests will last and when they will be expanded to other regions is currently still unclear.
Do you think a cap of 2,500 players per world is reasonable, or would you like to see larger capacities? Perhaps you are currently playing on a deserted server and want to take advantage of the free server transfer in New World. Please share your opinion here on MeinMMO in the comments and discuss with other players on the topic.

The FIFA YouTuber Castro1021 managed to play a match in FIFA 22 against Bayern professional Alphonso Davies. Here you will find out how the game went and how strong both teams are.
What happened? The famous FIFA YouTuber Castro1021 (1.88 million subscribers) released a video in which he plays a friendly match with Bayern professional Alphonso Davies while having a casual conversation. Notably, both have already strong teams with absolute top cards.
This is how strong Davies’ team is: The Canadian left-back from the German record champions has a strong team, especially featuring the VIP card of cover star Kylian Mbappé. However, the other cards are also impressive. Particularly strong is the baby icon of Maradona (worth 1.8 million coins), the card of Paul Pogba (87), and the 88 rated card of Raheem Sterling.
A really strong team that many FUT players would certainly wish for the launch of FIFA 22.
Overall, his team has a market value of 3.2 million coins – and that without VIP Mbappé, which only selected FIFA ambassadors have received. The normal Mbappé alone costs 1.6 million coins, which would catapult the team’s value to 4.8 million.
Here is his complete team:
No Bayern professionals are set up besides Davies himself.
This is how strong Castro’s team is: However, YouTuber Castro1021 also has a strong squad, with the strongest cards being Icon Rooney (86), Goretzka (87), Haaland (88), and Alphonso Davies (82). The market value amounts to a total of 1.4 million coins.
Here you see Castro1021’s team:
This is how the match between Davies and Castro went
The two offered the viewers a very high-scoring match with a total of 7 goals. You can watch the complete encounter here:

What is especially interesting is the flow of the game, as Castro1021 took an early lead with 3 goals. By the 30th minute, it was 3:0 for the YouTuber. However, the football pro did not let that deter him and fought back bravely. He scored goal after goal until the final whistle made it 4:3 for Davies.
What do you think of the duel between the two? Do you wish for a team like Davies’? Let us know in the comments!
Here you will find the best talents in the goalkeeper position for the career mode of FIFA 22. MeinMMO shows you the keepers with the greatest potential. Additionally, we present strong yet affordable goalkeeper talents.
The best goalkeeper talents with the greatest potential in career mode
These are the best goalkeeper talents: We have set the selection criteria to the highest potential and a maximum age of 24. You will thus find a large selection from various price ranges at the start, so there should be something for every budget.
For example, the Italian European champion Gianluigi Donnarumma is included in the list, but there are also lesser-known talents that hardly anyone would have on their radar.

The mysterious Pokémon Genesect is back as a raid boss in Pokémon GO. MeinMMO reveals which counters you can use to defeat the bug Pokémon.
We updated this counter guide on September 30, 2021, summarizing the best attackers against Genesect (Aquamodule) for you.
When does Genesect arrive? Starting from October 1, 2021, at 10:00 AM local time, you can defeat Genesect in its Aquamodule form in Level 5 raids. You have until October 12, 2021, at 10:00 AM to do so.
Best counters against Genesect at a glance
Which types should you take? Genesect is a Bug and Steel type. This makes it doubly vulnerable to all Fire attacks. All other types are either normal or even not effective. That’s why you should take advantage of this fire weakness and use appropriate attackers.
The best counters: Based on the overview from Pokebattler, we have summarized the 10 best monsters against Genesect with the corresponding attacks (via pokebattler.com). Make sure to bring the correct attacks, as the counters may otherwise be less effective.
Pokémon
Attacks
(Shadow) Moltres
Fire Spin and Overheat
(Shadow) Entei
Fire Fang and Overheat
(Shadow) Charizard
Fire Spin and Blast Burn
Reshiram
Fire Fang and Overheat
(Shadow) Ho-Oh
Incinerate and Fire Storm
Blaziken
Fire Spin and Overheat
(Shadow) Magmortar
Fire Spin and Fire Punch
(Shadow) Arcanine
Fire Fang and Flamethrower
Flareon
Fire Fang and Overheat
Heatran
Fire Spin and Flamethrower
These Mega Evolutions you can use: Of course, you can also use your Mega Evolutions against Genesect. It’s best to use the following counters:
Mega Charizard Y with Fire Spin and Blast Burn
Mega Charizard X with Fire Spin and Blast Burn
Mega Houndoom with Fire Fang and Flamethrower
Which Pokémon can I still use? The top 10 strongest counters already correspond to the strongest fire attackers in Pokémon GO. Otherwise, make sure you have strong fire attacks in your team, and you shouldn’t have any problems against Genesect.
How many players do you need for Genesect? You need at least two players to take down Genesect. Your Pokémon should have reached at least level 25. Therefore, the duo is relatively easy.
If you don’t have ideal counters or haven’t reached a higher level yet, you should rather team up with three trainers. Alone, Genesect is not beatable.
Infos about Genesect – CP, Attacks and Usefulness
What is a Genesect with 100% IV? From the raid, Genesect can have a maximum of 1916 CP. If beneficial weather conditions like rain and snow are in effect, it can even go up to a maximum of 2395 CP for a 100% specimen.
Which attacks can Genesect learn? Genesect has five different moves available, two quick and three charge attacks:
Quick Moves: Fury Cutter (Bug), Metal Claw (Steel)
Is there a shiny Genesect? You can also find the normal form of Genesect as shiny in the game with a bit of luck. However, the Aquamodule is currently not available in its shiny form.
Genesect in its normal form (left) and as shiny (right)
Is Genesect worth it? The mysterious Pokémon is one of the strongest bug attackers in the game and is worth it just for that. However, the bug type is not used that often, so the Pokémon may not come into play as often.
Moreover, there are different forms of Genesect. Currently, you can get it in the Aquamodule form. If you already have enough strong bug Pokémon, you should still secure a specimen for your Pokédex.
What do you think of the new raid boss Genesect? Will you participate in the raids, or is it not really your Pokémon? And which team do you use to defeat the mysterious monster? Feel free to share your opinion here on MeinMMO in the comments and discuss with other trainers.

Mods have kept Diablo 2 alive for years. Now there are already the first modifications for the remaster, Diablo 2: Resurrected. MeinMMO explains which ones exist and how to install them – and what to look out for.
What are these mods? With modifications, or mods for short, you can change all sorts of features of a game. In Diablo 2, this means, for example: adjusting the drop rate of items, changing the properties of enemies, or even creating new recipes for the Horadric Cube.
Since the release of Diablo 2 in 2000, there have been countless mods for the original game and the expansion. Now the first mods are also appearing for the remaster.
Attention! According to Blizzard’s terms of use, third-party software is generally prohibited. Mods may fall under this regulation and could get you banned.
What mods are there? Currently, the creators have only offered a handful of modifications for Diablo 2: Resurrected for download. You can find a list of mods, for example, on NexusMods and ModDB. Here are some of the more interesting mods:
However, particularly exciting is Better SP – you can find the mod on ModDB. Better SP brings extensive improvements for the solo mode, such as:
significantly more space in inventory, stash, and Horadric Cube
higher running and sprinting speed as well as less stamina consumption
more customization options for mercenaries
stackable items
With the mod, you can prevent losing misconfigured runes or gems through new recipes. That way, you won’t accidentally waste hours of farming work because you mixed up a letter.
Larger inventory, more slots for mercenaries and stacked items – That’s what Better SP offers. Source: NexusMods
Diablo 2: Installing mods – Here’s how
How do I install mods? First of all: As of now, you can only install mods for Diablo 2: Resurrected on PC. While the remaster is also available on PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch, we have not found mods for these platforms yet.
A modder has already explained on reddit how to generally install mods. To do this, you need to download and unpack the relevant files. You may need a special program like CascView to unpack.
The unpacked files then need to be placed in the corresponding folders. You can usually find them under: “[…]Diablo II ResurrectedData”. The exact locations for the files are stated in the description of the mods.
After that, you need to start the Battle.net client and click the small gear icon next to the “Start” button for Diablo 2 and make a few settings:
open the “Game Settings”
select Diablo 2: Resurrected
under the installation directory, find “Additional Command Line Arguments” – tick the box
enter the corresponding argument (e.g. “-mod Karla”; you will find the required argument in the mod description)
to play Diablo 2 without mods, just delete the argument
This is where the arguments go – Just of course, in Diablo, not in WoW.
What should I look out for? Only use mods in local offline mode and at your own risk. Modders always point out that even in offline mode, you have no guarantee of not receiving any possible penalties.
Mods can give you advantages, which is why they are not allowed in online mode. That would be unfair to everyone playing without mods and would be equivalent to cheating. Hence the potential penalties.
Trading items for real money is also not entirely permitted. However, that doesn’t stop players from trying anyway:
Many players from Destiny 2 are outraged about how Bungie locks its season pass content behind gates after their time expires. Guardians wish for a way to retrieve older content. We show you a way to get your missed rewards.
What do the Guardians want? Many Guardians suffer from what is referred to as “FOMO“. This acronym stands for “Fear of Missing Out” and means the fear of missing something. For some members of the community, Destiny 2 seems to trigger such fear with its season model.
That’s why Guardians have long demanded a feature against FOMO. Maybe you are a freshly minted Guardian, who admires the old ornaments (skins for weapons and armor) from past seasons that your veteran buddies wear so proudly. Yet, the player is confronted with the truth that these cosmetics can never be obtained again.
This is unfortunate for some players, as it takes away their motivation and also puts pressure on them. Season passes are associated with the obligation to consider certain time frames of their existence.
Players discover a trick to access dusty content
First of all: You can only redeem content that you have already earned in the respective season pass. Unreached levels of the season pass can no longer be unlocked.
How does the trick work? A Guardian on reddit named “GoldenHawk07” has pointed out how you can access your unredeemed levels of long-forgotten seasons.
The player shows a link to a page where you can find versions of the old Bungie Companion App listed. So you select the file that corresponds to your past season, download it, and you can gain access to ancient seasons.
This armor could be yours… if you had played back then.
How is that received? Guardians are excited on reddit and comment under the post:
Nice! I got Duality, Ticuu’s .Bow, the pistol, as well as the armors for my classes. Awesome!
Mentioned reddit user SmellslikeBongWater
Many Guardians simply wish that past seasons would remain a part of Destiny 2. Because some players might have only caught the Destiny 2 fever later and now regret not having retrieved their rewards. With the armor ornaments that were missed, they would at least have a small memento of that.
Can we expect such an official feature? It is possible, but nothing is officially known yet. It’s up to Bungie whether they will implement something like that. However, the community wishes for it.
Bungie has already provided a system whereby you can collect missed content. However, you can only collect items from the most recent past season that you missed. Older ones are not accessible and lost (for now).
If you are more interested in Destiny 2this might also interest you:
It would be tragic if Bungie decided to offer the old ornaments in the form of bundles for sale in the Eververse. That would be semi-optimal, as many would decide to buy, but a large part of the community would still be outraged.
What do you think of this method? Do you have any missed items that you would like to retrieve? Let us know in the comments what you think of a feature against FOMO.
The submachine gun AUG from Modern Warfare was the best weapon in the game at the launch of the Call of Duty: Warzone. However, due to nerfs to the recoil, the weapon lost its status. Now it is back on top and a little under-the-radar tip for close combat. MeinMMO has the details.
What is it about? The Warzone data expert “JGOD” is constantly on the lookout for the best weapons in the battle royale. Every statistical anomaly, every advantage in damage or handling of a weapon he tries to find and pack into a strong and valid setup.
Now the number magician has managed to dig up a strong little tip again: the AUG from CoD MW. Unlike the AUG from Cold War, the “old” AUG is a submachine gun. You can, however, use an ammunition attachment for more damage that fires 5.56 rounds from the AUG. And with exactly this attachment, the AUG from CoD MW becomes a strong alternative for close combat. We embed JGOD’s video here:

CoD Warzone: AUG setup takes out enemies up to 15 meters
What setup should I try? To bring the AUG to a competitive level, you need the 5.56 rounds. Here you should even go for the large 60-round magazine. Grab the strong Monolithic Suppressor for that. The remaining 3 attachments are used to improve the mobility of the submachine gun. For a better iron sight, you should use a blueprint of the weapon.
Muzzle: Suppressor (Monolithic)
Laser: Tactical Laser
Stock: FORGE TAC Close Combat Stock
Magazine: 5.56 NATO 60-round Drum
Grip: Patterned Grip Tape
What makes the AUG strong now? The old SMG from CoD MW is slightly ahead in damage compared to the mobile “Cold War” competitors and also comes with a large 60-round magazine. JGOD compares the AUG with the two SMGs OTs 9 and MP5 from Cold War. Both alternatives deliver high damage. But the AUG cannot be matched:
Time-to-Kill on chest hits
AUG from CoD MW: 542 milliseconds
OTs 9 from Cold War: 561 milliseconds
MP5 from Cold War: 562 milliseconds
With the AUG, it doesn’t matter where your hits land. Even with knee shots, the time-to-kill remains stable and you need 7 shots for your kill. Only the MP5 from CoD MW is slightly faster – at 526 milliseconds.
Also, when it comes to range, the AUG excels. Only after 15 meters does the SMG enter the second damage range, while the two competitors do not even reach 10 meters. The huge magazine with 60 rounds on deck is also a plus.
Additionally, with the setup shown here, you have very similar values for your time to aim. Meta setups of the OTs and MP5 take 250 milliseconds to aim, while the AUG stands at 234 milliseconds with this setup. The sprint-to-fire speed is similarly matched.
For more about mobility in Warzone, you can find it here:
What can’t the AUG do well? Time-to-kill and aim speed would have been enough at the time of CoD MW to make the AUG the best SMG by far. But in the “Cold War” era, it looks different, as the OTs 9 and the MP5 from Cold War come with strong mobility values.
Movement speed and your motions while aiming are significantly higher than with the AUG from CoD MW. Your strafing (side movements while aiming) is about 30% slower than with the Cold War competitors. This becomes noticeable in direct firefights when you want to quickly peek around a corner and then retreat back to cover.
Furthermore, with the AUG, you are slightly weaker in the second damage range. Your time-to-kill goes up to nearly 720 milliseconds at 15 meters, while the OTs 9 and MP5 from Cold War remain around 700 milliseconds.
Pros and Cons of the AUG SMG from CoD MW
Pro
Very good damage
High range for an SMG
Top values when aiming
Contra
Poor movement speeds
Second damage range is quite moderate
Recoil too strong for longer distances
Who should try the AUG SMG? With the start of Season 4 a few months ago, the Warzone developers announced the general time-to-kill in the game would be increased and have already taken some measures for this.
The AUG SMG is currently very strong, especially for players who use little strafing and rely on the ADS speed and damage of a weapon. If you’re always looking for the strong weapons with the highest damage – then the AUG is now your faithful companion in close-range combat.
The AUG from CoD MW is surprisingly a hit in Warzone again and dominates close combat. JGOD himself does not necessarily call the weapon “meta” due to its moderate mobility but sees great potential.
If you play with SMGs in your loadouts, then grab the AUG now – perhaps the drawbacks are not a problem for you at all, and you have a new deletion function for your enemies in close combat.
Mikaela Reid will change Dead by Daylight. On the test server, she is invincible – because she makes survivors immortal.
Immediately after the developers of Dead by Daylight announced the new survivor Mikaela Reid, the PTB (test server) went online. There, the new perks and abilities of Mikaela could be tried out directly. It only took a few minutes before the first players noticed: something is very wrong. Because survivors can heal faster than a killer can injure them. The culprit is the new perk “Boon: Healing Circle”.
What does the perk do? With the perk “Boon: Healing Circle”, Mikaela can bless a totem. The blessing ensures that within a radius of 28 meters, all survivors receive a strengthening effect. This provides for 2 things:
Survivors can heal themselves when injured without using a medkit.
Survivors receive a 100% bonus on healing speed when they heal another survivor.
What is the problem? The problem becomes evident when two survivors heal a third survivor. The healing is then completed faster than the cooldown animation after a killer’s strike:

The killer injures one survivor, and when two teammates heal that injured survivor right on the spot, they are already healed before the killer can land the next blow.
Or in other words: As long as the survivors are together in the healing circle of the totem, they cannot be downed.
In the corresponding video, the killer even uses “Sloppy Butcher” (“Sloppy Butcher”), which slightly increases the required healing time. Nevertheless, the killer does not manage to hit quickly enough to down a survivor.
The actual reason is also that two areas of the boon totems overlap in the video, and the bonuses stack. This makes healing possible in under 3 seconds.
More news about Dead by Daylight can be found here:
Community reacts with amusement and anger: The reactions in the community are humorous on one side, but quite negative on the other. They wonder how the developers could consider such a perk a good idea.
It seems beyond question that Mikaela Reid and her perks must undergo several nerfs and adjustments before her expected release in mid-October, so that the witch can enter the game without issues. Otherwise, the killer may face very dark times ahead.
What do you think about the perk? Are you also angry with the developers? Or is it okay because test servers are made for such things?

In recent weeks, the community has been complaining to Genshin Impact that, in their opinion, there are no reasonable rewards for the first anniversary. But now Genshin Impact is sending in-game mail with gifts to the players.
Although Genshin Impact remains silent on Twitter and everywhere else about it, they are now unexpectedly sending in-game mail to the players. This mail includes a free glider and 400 primogems.
Additionally, the title says “A Thank You to All Travelers (1/4)”. The 1/4 suggests that there will likely be three more letters with rewards sent to the players.
In-game mail
Equipped glider
Community is sure: “This was not planned”
Why are the rewards believed not to have been planned? The glider was originally announced in a bundle by Genshin Impact in the official patch notes for 2.1 (via Genshin Impact). The bundle was supposed to be called “Boundless Symphony” and cost around 30 euros (via Twitter).
Additionally, the bundle was supposed to include 1000 primogems. Whether the players will now gradually receive the entire bundle via in-game mail remains to be seen.
What does the community say about it? The community is convinced: This was not planned. They argue that Genshin Impact would not have announced it as a bundle beforehand but would have teased it as rewards. The fans are convinced that their protest contributed to this.
On reddit, there is a relevant thread (via reddit):
User LiveLikeKure_ says:
Watch as they ultimately distribute the whole package for free – as a “reward”.
I have mixed feelings. It looks bad if they are now giving away a package for free when it was supposed to be paid for and only because English and Chinese players have been furious on various platforms. Because that means that they [Genshin Impact] originally did not care at all about giving something for free for the anniversary and this [the bundle] was their last straw. But at the same time, this first step of damage control means that they are somehow listening now.
Now we just have to wait and see if they can also address other issues, especially their communication with players, or if this is just a one-time thing.
Even the “Genshin Impact” YouTuber IWinToLose Gaming mentions in his video that these rewards were probably handed out because of community feedback (via YouTube).
Regarding Genshin Impact’s silence, there is a reddit thread speculating that it is due to a change in the PR team. There seems to be a new PR team for the global server (via reddit).
Google Play Store Ratings of Other Games Were Affected
Not only Genshin Impact was rated poorly: Players of Genshin Impact not only left bad ratings for this game in the Google Play Store but also switched to games like Honkai Impact 3rd:
The only good thing about this game is the beautiful character designs. Otherwise, it feels like a second job. Since Honkai is also run by Mihoyo as a company, one shouldn’t even start. If respect for the community is important to the developers, then they should stay away from Honkai and Genshin.
A reddit thread also reports on other games being attacked by angry “Genshin Impact” fans (via reddit).
Even the English voice actor for Diluc speaks out in a tweet and hints at his displeasure with the community’s behavior (via Twitter).
Furthermore, some players are expecting a special announcement or a statement about the events in the upcoming livestream on Sunday, October 3 at 2 PM.
What do you think about the whole matter? If you are a Genshin Impact player: Are you satisfied with Genshin Impact’s change of direction or what do you wish for? Feel free to write it in the comments.
The developers of Final Fantasy XIV have teamed up with a luxury doll manufacturer to release a highly detailed doll of a popular character from the game. However, the doll is extremely expensive and evokes feelings of fear and unease rather than joy.
What kind of doll is this? Square Enix partnered with the doll maker Volks, known for their high-quality, detail-oriented dolls. The first product from the Final Fantasy XIV line will be the beloved character Y’shtola Rhul.
Who is Y’shtola Rhul? Y’shtola Rhul is one of the main characters in FFXIV and a player favorite. She accompanies players starting their journey in the city-state of Limsa Lominsa and plays a significant role in the main story of the MMORPG. The doll depicts Y’shtola Rhul in her witch attire from the Shadowbringers expansion.
Fans fear the launcher because of the doll with the creepy eyes
What is the problem with the doll? The doll is extremely detailed and of high quality. Its clothing is even handmade. However, it has a problem: its face with cold, dead eyes seems more disturbing than sympathetic.

Additionally, the doll greets every player with its creepy gaze when launching FF14. The doll is featured and available for pre-order in the launcher. Therefore, you cannot escape its eerie stare.
FF14 players must endure this gaze at login.
What do the players say? Indeed, some players have already complained about the creepy doll. They say the doll is simply scary and you can hardly escape its gaze. Here are some comments from reddit:
Xenorak: ‘This doll is an abomination! A nightmare from the uncanny valley!’
How much does the doll cost? Since each doll is largely handcrafted and made with high-quality materials, it costs a lot of money. On the doll’s pre-order page, it is offered for a whopping €1,169.99 (via Square Enix Store).
When can you buy it? However, those who really want the creepy doll for this amount have to wait over a year. According to Square Enix, the eerie doll will only be available in December 2022. So, it’s the ideal Christmas gift for fearless doll fans.
Today, on October 1, 2021, a new event called “The Secrets of the Jungle” has started in Pokémon GO. We at MeinMMO have looked at which Pokémon and bonuses await you.

Especially interesting is the mysterious Pokémon Genesect, which can impress primarily with its high attack value in the game. It belongs to the Bug and Steel types, which is why it only has a weakness against Fire attacks. Which counters you should use against Genesect have been summarized here for you.
Genesect (Aquamodul)
Genesect also has various forms. During the event, you can catch it for the first time in its special form Aquamodul. You can recognize it by its purple body and the blue decoration on the back of its cannon. Unfortunately, you can’t hope for a shiny in this form at the moment.
Wild Spawns

Research-Pikachu*
Hoothoot
Larvitar*
Wadribie
Rotomurf

Meowth*
Woingenau*
The new Pokémon Zarude
As with other events, there will also be a special research task for this one. As a reward, you will receive the Dark-type Pokémon Zarude for the first time. This Pokémon is the focus of the new movie and thus cannot be missing in Pokémon GO.
