Pokémon GO: Today the first bonuses of the Eevee event start – Here are the new special moves

Franzi Korittke Franzi Korittke Reading time 4 minutes

This weekend, the Community Day with Eevee is taking place in Pokémon GO. Starting today, August 13, 2021, Eevee and its evolutions will receive cool special moves. MeinMMO shows you what they are and what bonuses you can look forward to.

What is it about? Once a month, there is a Community Day in Pokémon GO. A specific Pokémon is put in the spotlight, which then appears more frequently in the wild. Additionally, there are numerous bonuses for this occasion. In August, this event is about the Pokémon Eevee and has some special features to offer.

Unlike previous Community Days, the Eevee event will take place not just on one day, but on two days. Additionally, some of the bonuses can already be used before the actual start and also beyond the end of the Community Day. One of these bonuses are the special moves for Eevee and its evolutions. We will show you what they are.

When does the Community Day take place? The Community Day with Eevee runs on Saturday, August 14 and Sunday, August 15, 2021, from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM local time each day.

These are the new special moves

When can you get the special moves? During the Community Day with Eevee, there will again be a variety of bonuses that you can use. Niantic has even released part of them starting today. This includes the special moves that Eevee and its evolutions receive during the event. They will be active for you during the following period:

  • Start: Friday, August 13, 2021 at 7:00 PM local time
  • End: Monday, August 16, 2021 at 7:00 PM local time

These special moves are given to Eevee and its evolutions: A feature that usually comes with every Community Day is special event moves for the evolution of the Pokémon. This is also the case for the event with Eevee.

Since Eevee has a total of 8 evolutions, of course, each of them gets its own move, when you evolve Eevee into them. However, you can also look forward to a special attack for Eevee during this time when you catch or hatch one. These are the new moves:

PokémonSpecial Move
EeveeLast Resort
VaporeonScald
JolteonThunder Cannon
FlareonSuperpower
EspeonShadow Ball
UmbreonPsychic
LeafeonBullet Seed
GlaceonWater Pulse
SylveonPsyshock

How strong the new moves are

Eevee is a Normal-type Pokémon and generally doesn’t play a role in the PvP league and raids due to its poor stats. The new move doesn’t change that. However, this is different for its evolutions. Espeon, Glaceon, Leafeon, and Sylveon are even among the best attackers in Pokémon GO.

So how do Eevee’s evolutions fare with the new moves? With the help of the PvPoke overview, we looked at which Pokémon benefit the most from the new attacks (via pvpoke.com). It shows that especially Sylveon with the Charged Move Psyshock is a clear winner.

Since Sylveon is ranked quite high in the PvP league, you should definitely use this move according to PvPoke. Leafeon can also enjoy its fast Fast Move. You should also use this in your PvP battles if you use Leafeon.

Flareon can also convince with its Charged Move Superpower. However, this Pokémon does not play a big role in the PvP league compared to better Fire-type Pokémon. If you still use it, you can safely rely on this move.

Of the other evolutions, only Umbreon can still benefit from its Charged Move. Especially in the Ultra League, you could rely on Psychic and make it a bit stronger.

All other evolutions have not had as much luck with their moves. They have other attacks that are significantly better, which you should prefer. Also, in raids, the new moves play a rather minor role, as these Pokémon generally have better movesets.

Other bonuses for the Community Day with Eevee

In addition to the special moves that Eevee and its evolutions can receive, you have the opportunity to take advantage of additional bonuses starting today. We will show you what they are.

Simplified developing of Sylveon

To evolve Sylveon, you normally need to take an Eevee as your buddy and earn 70 hearts with it. You can do this by playing with the Pokémon, taking photos of it, and exploring the surroundings together.

As part of the Community Day, this process has been shortened, and you only need to collect 7 hearts with Eevee as your buddy to evolve it into Sylveon. This is possible starting August 13 at 7 PM.

Missing walking requirements for Umbreon and Espeon

The evolution of Umbreon and Espeon is currently made significantly easier for you. According to Niantic, there has been a bug in the game that no longer requires walking to obtain Umbreon or Espeon. You only need to set your Eevee as a buddy, and you can then evolve it into one of the two Pokémon depending on the time of day.

Previously, you had to walk 10 kilometers with your Eevee to evolve it afterward. Since Niantic announced that they will fix this bug only after the event, you can relax while developing Espeon and Umbreon during the Community Day without having to walk long distances.

Limited research

As with other events, there will be a limited research task for this one as well. According to Niantic, this should also be available in the game starting this evening (via pokemongolive.com). You will receive a Glacier and Moss Module as a reward for completing it, which you need to evolve Eevee into Glaceon and Leafeon.

Offers in the in-game shop

If you want to participate in the special research “You have the choice” around Eevee, you can purchase an event ticket for about 1.00 Euro in the in-game shop. Additionally, a special Community Box is available in the shop for 1,280 coins. This includes 50 Ultra Balls, 5 Incense, a Premium Fast TM, and a Premium Charge TM.

Veteran streams 103 hours straight on Twitch because he can’t sleep

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 2 minutes

The Twitch streamer Cryptowrench is a former Marine and suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder and insomnia. He has made it his mission to showcase long-duration streams on Twitch without sleep to draw attention to his problem. The astonishing thing is: Even after 100 hours without sleep, he can still play complex shooters like Apex Legends.

This is what the streamer says: The streamer says about himself that he is a former member of the Marines and suffers from 3 illnesses:

  • Post-traumatic stress disorder
  • Rheumatoid arthritis
  • Insomnia

He sleeps so little that his body has now adjusted to the lack of sleep, so even after 100 hours without sleep, he still functions somewhat and manages to have the reaction time to play fast shooters like Apex Legends.

However, the post-traumatic stress disorder worsens the longer he stays awake, and he thus reacts strangely to sudden noises.

This is his plan: Cryptowrench wants to draw attention to the problems that people like him face. Therefore, he is doing “real marathon streams.”

Unlike “subathons”, like the one by Twitch streamer Ludwig, which take sleep breaks, he is awake the entire time.

von Schuhmann

Other streamers have 20,000 viewers while sleeping – He is sleepless

This was his biggest success so far: At the end of July, he set out to stream for 120 hours straight on Twitch. However, he stopped the stream after 103 hours.

But the astonishing thing is that he still seemed somewhat fit even after over 100 hours without sleep.

He himself says: His body has now adjusted so much to the lack of sleep that others don’t even notice how long he has been awake. To others, it simply seems like he has just had a long night.

Is he successful with this? Not particularly. The duration stream of 103 hours had an average of 24 viewers. When Ludwig had his “subathon with sleep breaks”, an average of 20,000 people watched him, even when he was sleeping.

Cryptowrench can only dream of such numbers, if he ever gets to dream.

For many, Twitch is a way to step out of themselves and live their hobby. For some Twitch streamers, the platform seems to be therapy as well:

Important contents, such as the new weapons, are still available for players who do not want to invest money. The Battle Pass mainly distributes cosmetics and things like XP bonuses and CoD Points.

The latter are enough to finance the Battle Pass – at least if you play enough to gather 1,000 CoD Points again. Overall, the Battle Pass offers again 1,300 CoD Points.

Are you getting the new Battle Pass this season? Or would you rather skip it? Let us know in the comments! Otherwise, the focus is already looking ahead: First images of CoD 2021 have apparently been leaked.

Lost Ark introduces 15th class for the Europe release – Fight with fists and magic

Mark Sellner Mark Sellner Reading time 5 minutes

The upcoming MMORPG Lost Ark now showcases the martial arts classes in a class preview video. The video also features the Striker or Battle Monk, a previously unannounced class that likely fills the 15th slot for the European release. All four variants of the fist fighters rely on their fists in Lost Ark but have interesting unique mechanics. We at MeinMMO introduce you to the classes.

What are the Martial Artists? With the fist fighters, you can expect exactly what you are imagining now. Depending on the class selection, the fist fighters jump quickly and nimbly across the battlefield, deliver slow, heavy blows, or even combine their martial arts with magic.

When it comes to weapons, all four martial arts classes rely on their fists and suitable gloves. You can expect powerful gameplay, fast fights, and comparatively many health points, although fewer than that of the Warrior.

The martial arts classes focus entirely on melee combat. You are always at the front, spreading damage. The martial artists offer a class for melee fans who cannot identify with the Assassin and the Warrior. So if you want to fight as a martial artist in the upcoming Lost Ark beta, we have all the information for you.

In this video, you can see the subclasses of the martial artist:

The 15th class for Europe is finally here – This is what the Battle Monk can do

Why is this special? In the alpha of Lost Ark, only 14 of the 15 announced classes were playable. Now Amazon secretly reveals the 15th class we will be able to play at release in this trailer. Presumably, the Battle Monk will also be available in beta.

How do the classes work? Lost Ark provides you with five different base classes. Once you have played the class up to level 10, you can already gain insight into its story and then choose one of the subclasses. If you have already played a character to level 10, you can skip this process with all other characters and directly select your subclass.

What can the Battle Monk do? As announced by the developers, the Battle Monk further loosens the gender lock of the classes in Lost Ark. He is a male subclass similar to the Martial Artists and the War Dancer. The Battle Monk relies on kicks and fast fist weapons, as well as the elements fire and air, preferring air.

With the skill “Swift Wind Kick,” the Battle Monk himself becomes a kicking tornado. He inflicts damage up to 22 times and attacks those standing around him. With the ability “Awakening of the Storm Dragon,” he kicks his enemies into the air, only to slam them back to the ground with his knees, dealing significant damage.

The skill “Tiger Appearance” allows the Battle Monk to dash forward and perform an upward attack that inflicts fire damage on his enemies. Afterwards, he can use the skill “Truly Heavenly Attack” to gather energy in his legs and then kick so hard that your enemies fly up into the air.

If you like the fast fighting style of the War Dancer but would prefer to play a male version of her, or if you simply find air more appealing than fire, then the Battle Monk is your choice.

3 Subclasses of the Martial Artist – Here’s how differently they play

Why three? Technically, the Battle Monk also belongs to the subclasses of the Martial Artist, but in character creation, he will be a separate main class, similar to the female version of the Gunner.

What can the War Dancer do? Armed with two light fist weapons, she jumps quickly and elegantly through her opponents. She relies on combination attacks and rapid movements. Her attacks do little damage on their own, but she unleashes her full power through her combos.

The War Dancer harnesses the elements of fire and air. With the skill “Arrival of the Phoenix,” she can jump into the air and then strike the ground with concentrated fire energy to deal area damage. With the skill “Fire Blitz Capture,” she strikes the enemy multiple times, finishing with a final, hard hit.

In addition to the elements, she obviously relies on her fists and pure speed. With the skill “Lightning Kick,” you can unleash a flurry of punches on your enemies. Enemies lying on the ground will be thrown into the air, and enemies in the air will fall to the ground. If you are looking for fast-paced action, the War Dancer is a great choice.

What can the Scrapper do? The Scrapper also relies on fist weapons, but they are significantly larger than those of the other martial artists. The gauntlets of the Scrapper are slower but can deal massive damage. She does not need mana, but plays with two resources that recharge each other.

The Scrapper does not utilize elements but chooses the raw power of destruction. With the skill “Devastating Shockwave,” she performs a powerful strike and thrusts forward. The skill “Chain Destruction Fist” allows the Scrapper to strike the ground, causing it to quake. She strikes four times, and the radius increases with each hit.

However, she is not without magic, as with the skill “Invincible Dragon King,” she jumps together with two black dragons onto the target, dealing significant damage. If your enemies are still alive afterward, the skill “Judgment of Death” can definitely take them down. It unleashes a shockwave that pushes back all enemies and deals damage to them.

So if you are looking for intense melee combat that feels powerful and find playing with two resources exciting, you should definitely take a look at the Scrapper.

More about Lost Ark on MeinMMO

What can the Soul Fist do? The Soul Fist primarily relies on her energy magic to enable a fighting style that switches between melee and ranged combat. She has many combinations and can elegantly blend the martial artists’ fists with magic.

With the skill “Devastating Ray,” you gather your energy to shoot an energy beam forward. It can inflict damage on enemies up to five times, thus causing devastation at a distance as well. The skill “Heavenly Crusher” literally slaps your enemies away. The Soul Fist thus summons a large palm that falls from the sky, dealing the most damage to enemies on the ground.

But even in melee combat, the Soul Fist can be powerful. With the skill “Deadly Finger,” she dodges backward and thrusts her fingers toward the sky. She deals special damage to enemies in the air. With the ability “Magnetic Palm,” she leaps forward and deals three times damage, launching your enemies into the air.

If you don’t want to commit to a particular fighting style and want to react flexibly to every situation, you should take a look at the Soul Fist.

If you enjoy fast-paced melee combat but find the martial artist classes unappealing, we recommend trying out the Assassins in Lost Ark, as these are the demonic assassins.

Back 4 Blood makes zombies less racist at launch: “We deeply regret”

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 2 minutes

In the co-op shooter Back 4 Blood, there were several incidents during the beta where zombies sounded as if they were mumbling a racist slur. The TurtleRock team shared on Twitter that they want to fix this before the launch.

What happened at Back 4 Blood?

  • Last week, a pre-order beta was held for the new co-op shooter Back 4 Blood on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series and PC (Epic/Steam).
  • Players encountered a lot of zombies and dispatched them with varying degrees of skill. The zombies made moaning, gasping, and grunting sounds, as is their nature.
  • However, as some players noticed, these sounds sometimes seemed to clearly sound as if the zombies were mumbling a racist slur – especially when a black player was involved, it created a strange effect.
In Back 4 Blood, zombies die – a lot of zombies.

This was the scene that was seen online: The Twitch streamer HomeBKE showed the scene on August 6 on Twitter where a zombie was hitting on him from the side.

Another streamer responded to the tweet with his own scene where he insulted a zombie and the zombie apparently reacted in a racist manner.

System randomly combined several grunt sounds

This is what the team says now: In a tweet, the Back 4 Blood team commented on the issue on August 12 (via twitter):

There is a known issue in the beta where multiple plagued growl sound effects are randomly combined by the system, resulting in something that sounds like a racist slur.

Although this was not intentional, we take this issue very seriously and deeply regret any pain this issue may have caused. The problem will be resolved at launch.

These are the reactions: For most players, the incident apparently wasn’t a big deal anyway. It was generally assumed to be a “random effect.” Hence, Twitter users say, “It’s not that serious. Most people laughed about it rather than getting upset.”

Other users add: The beta had a lot of bugs and issues, such as frame rates or matchmaking problems.

Overall, the mood surrounding Back 4 Blood seems to be quite good before release. The launch of Back 4 Blood is on October 12, 2021.

The Dead by Daylight community is sure: Pinhead will be the new killer

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

The latest killer in Dead by Daylight is announced with a puzzle. But the community is already sure about who it will be: Pinhead from Hellraiser.

Every 3 months, a new killer appears in Dead by Daylight to heat things up for the community and bring new dangers to the world of the Entity. This time, Behaviour has chosen to release small hints, which are slowly but surely published. But the fans of the horror game are already quite sure about who is coming next: Pinhead from the Hellraiser franchise.

What hints have there been? For several days now, Dead by Daylight has been publishing a series of seemingly harmless questions on its social media channels. For example, a bench is shown and asked: “Which DbD character would you like to just sit on a bench and chat with?”

But the community quickly noticed: There are letters hidden in the images! Gradually, the following letters have been discovered in the images:

  • I
  • S
  • A
  • E
  • R

What does the community conclude? In the subreddit, there is a lively discussion, but the latest theory is that the next killer is “Pinhead.” He comes from the “Hellraiser” franchise – and perfectly fits the letters that have been released so far.

Dead by Daylight Bullseye Pinhead Clue
A hint about Pinhead? The nail is suspicious.

Another clue is a nail that was hidden in one of the screenshots. The image shows a map from Dead by Daylight – where the nail does not exist. This also points to Pinhead.

Who is Pinhead? Pinhead is a follower of a cult from another dimension, the Cenobites. The Cenobites are a strange cult based in hell that seeks to achieve a higher state of being through sadomasochism. You can watch the trailer for the movies here:

Link to the YouTube content

Consequently, Pinhead also looks a certain way. Visually at first glance, a human, his head has been adorned with blades resulting in horizontal and vertical cuts, with nails affixed at the intersections. Pinhead is a name that was created by fans of the franchise; officially, the creature was only called “the Priest” or “Leader of the Cenobites.”

More about Dead by Daylight on MeinMMO can be found here:

How likely is it? The letters gathered so far and also the nail make it very likely that Pinhead could be the next killer in Dead by Daylight. Even though the movies (especially in Germany) were released quite late, Hellraiser is considered a classic horror and fits into many other successful horror franchises. Pinhead would thus be a perfect addition to the killer roster in Dead by Daylight.

As soon as there is an official confirmation for the new killer, we will report on it.

Would you like to see Pinhead as a killer in Dead by Daylight? Or does this horror figure not fit so well into the world of the Entity?

CoD Cold War: Season 5 is online – Brings „Among Us“ mode and 5 new maps

Kevin Willing Kevin Willing Reading time 5 minutes

Today, on August 13, 2021, Season 5 of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War starts. MeinMMO shows you what you can expect besides new multiplayer and zombie maps as well as an Among Us game mode.

Update August 13: The new Season 5 is now live and you can fully enjoy the new content. We have adjusted the article a bit.

New Season is packed: In Season 5 of Black Ops: Cold War, fans can expect many innovations. One new feature stands out from this list: the Double Agent game mode. Its “cat and mouse” principle should be familiar to some due to the resounding success of Among Us. But Season 5 offers much more:

  • 2 new game modes – “Double Agent” and “Demolition”
  • A fresh Battle Pass with 100 tiers
  • 5 new 6v6 multiplayer maps
  • new equipment, map, and vehicle for the Outbreak mode
  • 4 new weapons

  • PlayStation 4: 11.6 GB

New game modes – Demolition and Double Agent

Old classic Demolition: An old fan favorite is making a return, long desired by fans. In Demolition, one team must plant a bomb at a designated point. The other team’s task is to prevent exactly that. However, Demolition will only be available later in Season 5 – no exact date has been given.

What is Double Agent? In this game mode, everything revolves around hidden operations and stealthy approaches. A lobby consists of a maximum of 10 players. You will be assigned one of 3 roles, which determines your task:

  • Double Agent: These players must secretly kill all other adversaries or plant a bomb. The catch: No one knows who the double agent is – anyone could be it.
  • Operatives: They must figure out who the agents are together. At the start, this is the largest group.
  • Investigator: One player becomes a detective who should assist their teammates in the search. They can read clues that are hidden from others.

At the beginning of each round, all players start with a pistol. Weapons and equipment are scattered throughout the map. You can pick them up, but you are not bound to them; simply swap them out. To the weapons that everyone can collect come class-specific abilities. You earn these with skill points that you receive for various actions throughout a round.

Weapons and abilities alone are not enough to find the mischievous double agents. The developers emphasize that voice chat is particularly important. Players need to communicate extensively in the Double Agent mode to stand a chance against the double agents.

We include the trailer for the mode here:

5 fresh maps for multiplayer

These maps are new: Season 5 of Black Ops: Cold War brings a total of 5 new multiplayer maps. There are also 2 remakes: Slums from Black Ops II and Drive-In from Black Ops I. On the Season 5 maps, you play 6vs6, only the Showroom map makes an exception with 3 against 3 or 2 against 2.

  • Echelon: is a modern radio station near Berlin
  • Slums: features colorful houses, open fountain areas – this is Slums as you know it
  • Drive-In: is an abandoned drive-in theater that nature is slowly reclaiming
  • Zoo: gives away the setting in its name, here you fight in an old zoo.
  • Showroom: is a shopping arcade where you fight in 2v2 or 3v3.

In addition to the new content, there have also been some balance adjustments with weapons, especially with assault rifles. If you want to see the changes in detail, check out the English patch notes on treyarch.com.

What zombie fans can look forward to in Season 5

This is new in the zombie mode: To gain the upper hand in the fight against the walking dead, you can make use of new gadgets in Season 5 of Cold War. This includes a new perk, a field upgrade, and a new weapon.

  • Perk: Death Perception allows you to see enemies through walls and improves your radar.
  • Field Upgrade: Tesla Storm creates a debilitating storm that also includes your teammates.
  • New weapon: The flamethrower is the perfect companion to push several zombies back to hell.

In comparison to what Season 5 introduces in Outbreak, the flamethrower appears to be a toy: Here you will soon be able to control a tank. Although they are very slow, firepower and armor quickly compensate for this disadvantage with good handling. In addition to the tank, you will also gain access to the “Grappling Gun.” This is a grappling hook that allows you to cover larger distances quickly. You can easily craft it at the crafting table.

You can try out the new toys right away on the new Outbreak map Collateral. There is great hope that it will not be as buggy as Mauer der Toten did last time.

What’s in the new Battle Pass & Season 5

This is included in the new Pass: Black Ops: Cold War starts on Friday and brings 100 new levels in the latest Battle Pass right away. If you buy it now, you will immediately receive the operator Kitsune, the daughter of the former Yakuza boss. In the next 100 levels, you will unlock many other cosmetics, 2 new weapons or war tracks from Call of Duty: World at War. We include the trailer for the Battle Pass here:

This is yet to come in Season 5: Right at the start of the season, there’s another weapon – the walking stick. Additionally, as always, the season progress resets and you can earn new prestige emblems.

Treyarch promises more content later in Season 5. Among other things, you can look forward to another weapon and a live event for the mid-season. However, there are currently no exact dates for the introduction of these.

These are the Free Guy quests you need to complete: There are a total of five quests you need to complete for the Free Guy emote. They are:

  • Get hit by a moving vehicle
  • Place coins on the map (3)
  • Revive teammates or interact with a campfire

New MMORPG Bless Unleashed ranks 7th on Steam – After just one weekend

Benedict Grothaus Benedict Grothaus Reading time 2 minutes

On August 6th, the new MMORPG Bless Unleashed launched on Steam. Since then, it has been struggling with reviews, but it can still attract tens of thousands of players. With strong figures, the game even makes it into the top 10 on Steam.

Where does Bless Unleashed stand on Steam? After a strong start on Steam on August 6th, Bless Unleashed was able to accumulate even more players over the weekend. Currently, the MMORPG stands at:

  • 72,963 current players (6:50 PM)
  • 76,273 peak players
  • 44,058 average players

Thus, it ranks 7th among the most played games on Steam, ahead of long-time hits like Warframe and Rainbow Six: Siege (via steamcharts.com). Even during beta, it was able to attract more players than ESO and FFXIV.

How well is Bless Unleashed received: The reviews have also improved since release. While Bless Unleashed initially received mostly negative reviews, it currently has at least 50% across all ratings (via Steam).

If you filter for reviews with 10 hours or more playtime in German and English, the MMORPG even achieves 84% positive feedback from 824 reviews: What do players say who have played Bless Unleashed for at least 10 hours on Steam?

New MMORPG Excites, but Struggles with Its Name

The community states that particularly the strong combat system, the graphics, and the PvE can persuade players. In the open world, bosses with unique mechanics appear, which players face together.

Even critics praise the combat system and compare it to Monster Hunter. Bless Unleashed offers action combat, where you must actively attack and dodge instead of selecting your opponent with tab-targeting.

More on the topic at MeinMMO:

However, a part of the payment system is criticized. At a higher level, for example, the world PvP is supposed to be unlocked and you can be attacked by other players at any time. To bypass this, you must pay real money for a one-hour pass to be freed from PvP.

Additionally, Bless Unleashed struggles with its name and the similarity to the heavily flopped Bless Online. Although both MMORPGs play in the same world, they come from different studios and have little to do with each other:

Path of Exile 2 talks about the release: “In 2 years we are close”

Max Handwerk Max Handwerk Reading time 2 minutes

How soon can one expect Path of Exile 2? Developer Chris Wilson discussed the release of the expansion in a long talk and explained where the difficulties lie.

When is Path of Exile 2 coming out? A specific release date for Path of Exile 2 is still not available. However, Chris Wilson from the New Zealand studio Grinding Gear Games spoke in a talk over three hours long about Path of Exile (via YouTube) about its continuation – and narrowed down the release period.

When asked if one could even expect Path of Exile 2 before 2024, Wilson replied: “Our expectation is: Yes.” Then he went into more detail about the development status: “We believe that we will likely be in public beta or close to release within two years.”

This would roughly correspond to the summer of 2023. Wilson explained that they have currently completed about 90% of the first act and 75% of the second act of Path of Exile 2. They have now started on the later acts. There will be a total of seven acts in Path of Exile 2.

Wilson explains the problems of Path of Exile 2

What are the problems? Originally, an earlier release was planned. And even now, Wilson says regarding the percentages: “That doesn’t sound like much.” However, he explained: “While we were trying to get our art style and quality under control, we had to do a lot of work, set standards, and introduce processes. Now we are in full production mode.”

Especially due to the pandemic, development has progressed more slowly than hoped: “Covid hasn’t helped. The borders are closed, and since last March, no one has come to New Zealand, except New Zealanders.”

This is what Path of Exile 2 is supposed to look like

Due to these circumstances, it has been difficult to find the necessary staff for development. However, that should change now: They are expanding, outsourcing studios, and promoting remote work.

For example, they are currently looking for environment artists: “If you are a world-class artist and want to work on PoE 2, please contact us.” There is plenty of work, and they want to hire up to 100 artists in the next six months.

More about Path of Exile at MeinMMO:

What is being worked on? Path of Exile 2 is not a classic successor, but rather a huge expansion of Path of Exile. However, features are being added that correspond to a continuation – such as a new storyline. Classes and equipment systems are also being revised and renewed.

“We have the opportunity to redo and improve things,” Wilson said about Path of Exile 2: “The campaign is much better, and the combat feels so much better.” The new story is expected to be more coherent and interesting.

It will still take some time before the final result can be assessed. In April 2021, Path of Exile 2 showed new gameplay that was well received. You can see what it looked like here.

Battlefield 2042 shows short film before release, collects 70,000 likes in 1 hour

Benedict Grothaus Benedict Grothaus Reading time 2 minutes

Battlefield 2042 has released a new short film that provides a closer look at the story of the upcoming shooter. The big reveal: it appears that Battlefield 2042 takes place in the same world as Battlefield 4, as the main character plays a role again. The community is ecstatic.

What is this short film about? The short work is simply titled ‘Exodus’ and outlines the story leading up to the events in Battlefield 2042. After the collapse of the world, many people find themselves without citizenship and become “No-Pats”.

The leader of this group wants to secure a mysterious briefcase containing information, but is interrupted. Just moments later, it becomes clear: the leader is Kimble “Irish” Graves, the protagonist from Battlefield 4.

He encounters his old comrade Clayton “Pac” Pakowski in the scene, whom he captures to take him to the refugee boat he is traveling on.

However, shortly thereafter, an attack occurs where soldiers target the boat and aim to transfer the information to a suspected terrorist known only as “Oz”. Graves fears that this will trigger World War III and tries to prevent it – but fails.

After the data is sent, he sees only one way to prevent the war: to get involved.

Short film features main character from Battlefield 4, creates excitement

How is the short film received? Already after just 30 minutes, the video has gathered over 56,000 likes and has been viewed over 235,000 times; after an hour, the video stands at 70,000 likes and 372,000 views.

However, the premiere had a week of buildup, and the community has generated a lot of hype accordingly. Among fans, especially the appearance of Irish is a “goosebumps” moment, as noted by SnekuL_Xfire11 (via YouTube.com).

Irish is more than just a recurring character; he means even more for the upcoming shooter.

More about Battlefield 2042 on MeinMMO:

What does Irish mean for Battlefield 2042? From the main character, the community deduces that Battlefield 2042 takes place in the same timeline as Battlefield 4, thus a few years after the events there.

This also includes that the choices players made at the end of Battlefield 4 have now become canon. In the last mission, you have the choice to either sacrifice Irish or the Chinese agent Hannah. Apparently, Hannah was the more popular choice, as she does not appear in the new short film, but Irish does.

Irish himself is no longer just a Marine in Battlefield 2042, but the commander of the No-Pat ship “Exodus”. He will also be one of the playable specialists who can provide mobile cover and counter explosive projectiles, as well as gain armor for kills.

Battlefield 2042 will be released on October 22 for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S; a beta will take place in advance.

Destiny 2 reveals which weapons are essential in the endgame of Season 15

Christos Tsogos Christos Tsogos Reading time 2 minutes

Destiny 2 has presented the important anti-champion mods for the new Season 15. These mods will play a crucial role in the endgame. Which weapon types will benefit from it and how it came to release, you will find out on MeinMMO.

These are the new artifact mods: Bungie is slowly starting the advertising campaign for the upcoming Season 15. They have revealed how you will soon tackle the hardest content in the game. The anti-champion mods and the corresponding weapon types have now been introduced:

  • Auto Rifles: Barrier Champions
  • Pulse Rifles: Unstoppable Champions
  • Linear and Fusion Rifles: Unstoppable Champions
  • Hand Cannons: Unstoppable Champions
  • Bows: Overload Champions
  • Swords: Overload Champions

To some guardians, the selection may seem rather suspicious, as there is only one anti-barrier mod. Will Bungie release more mods in Season 15?

This is how Bungie introduced the weapons for the endgame in Season 15

In a tweet from August 11, Destiny developer Bungie unveiled the new weapon mods for the last season before the major expansion Witch Queen.

The tweet shows five mods:

All in all, a diverse mix of weapons that couldn’t be more different, but how did it come to publication?

Bungie wanted 7,777 likes but got 6 times that

Where does the information come from? The information comes directly from Bungie. Via Twitter, they made an offer to the guardians. If the guardians should manage to get 7,777 likes on the mentioned post, they will pre-release the new mods. The collected likes shot past the desired target within 5 minutes.

Why are these mods important for the endgame? In the endgame of Destiny 2, you encounter nasty champions and need suitable firepower – the anti-champion mods are essential for this. Whether it’s an unstoppable ogre in the grandmaster nightfall or an overload minotaur in the glass chamber, without these mods, you can hardly stun or stop them to send them to the virtual afterlife.

Without mods, champions cannot be defeated.

What is striking: The striking thing about it is that there is only a single anti-barrier mod and it is linked with an auto rifle. As usually a pulse or scout rifle was used to break barriers to maintain a safe distance from the enemy, it remains to be seen what Bungie had in mind.

More about Destiny 2 can be found here:

The new and yet unnamed season starts on August 24, until then it remains to be seen whether Bungie will reveal any more information.

What do you think of the new mods that are coming our way? Are you also surprised that swords are now responsible for overload champions? Or do you find it boring again that hand cannons and no sidearms are assigned to unstoppable champions? Let us know. Tell us in the comments what you think about Bungie dictating the endgame meta with the artifact?

Pokémon GO: How to make the most of the Community Day with Eevee

Franzi Korittke Franzi Korittke Reading time 5 minutes

On the weekend of August 14 and 15, 2021, the Community Day with Eevee will take place in Pokémon GO. We at MeinMMO have looked at what special features and bonuses await you at this event.

What is a Community Day? Once a month, a special event takes place for trainers in Pokémon GO: the Community Day. This usually lasts one day and focuses on a specific Pokémon. This Pokémon spawns more frequently during the event, and the shiny rate is also increased during this time.

Additionally, trainers can look forward to numerous bonuses on this day. In August, the Pokémon Eevee will be the focus of the event. Unlike the previous Community Days, this time it will extend over two days.

Community Day in August 2021 – Start Time and Bonuses

What? The Community Day with Eevee
When? On Saturday, August 14, 2021, and Sunday, August 15, 2021, each from 11 AM to 5 PM local time
Pokémon of the Day: Eevee will spawn more frequently in the wild during the event period
Bonuses during the event:
– Eggs hatch 4 times faster
– Incense lasts three hours
– Lures last three hours

In total, you have 12 hours to catch Eevee at this event. With the extended durations of incense and lures, it is also conceivable to play from home.

Additional Bonuses for the Community Day with Eevee

In addition to the bonuses you receive during the event period, there will be additional bonuses for this Community Day. These will be available to you from Friday, August 13, 2021, at 7:00 PM until Monday, August 16, 2021, at 7:00 PM. Here’s what you can look forward to during this time:

  • various special moves when evolving Eevee
  • hatched or caught Eevee will know the special move Last Resort
  • you only need 7 hearts instead of 70 when evolving Sylveon
  • limited research with Moss and Glacier module as a reward

These are the special moves: Eevee has a total of 8 evolutions that can learn the following special moves during the Community Day:

PokémonSpecial Move
VaporeonScald
JolteonVolt Cannon
FlareonSuperpower
EspeonShadow Ball
UmbreonPsychic
LeafeonBulldoze
GlaceonAqua Jet
SylveonPsyshock

Changed KM Requirement When Evolving Espeon and Umbreon

As the Pokémon GO community has noted, there are currently no walking requirements for evolving Espeon and Umbreon. Normally, to evolve them, you need to select your Eevee as your buddy and walk 10 kilometers. After that, evolution into Espeon (during the day) or Umbreon (in the evening/night) is possible depending on the time of day.

With the removal of the walking requirement, you only need to take your Eevee as a buddy and can then evolve it into Espeon or Umbreon based on the time. According to Niantic, this is a bug in the game. However, they have announced that it will not be fixed before August 16, 2021, at 7:00 PM. This makes it easier for you to evolve during the Community Day.

What’s in the Ingame Store

As with previous Community Days, you can purchase additional items in the ingame store. These are available during the Eevee event:

  • The special research “You Have a Choice” for about 1 Euro, focusing on Eevee.
  • A Community Day Box with 50 Ultra Balls, 5 Incense, one Elite Fast TM, and one Elite Charged TM for 1,280 coins.

How to Make the Most of the Community Day in August

Make these preparations: Eevee is a normal-type Pokémon from the first generation. It can evolve into a total of eight different creatures through various means. All information on Eevee’s evolutions and name tricks can be found here. As with other Community Days, the evolutions will also learn a special move during this event.

So if you want all evolutions with the corresponding special move, you need enough candies and, of course, many strong Eevees for evolution. To avoid constantly evaluating the captured creatures during the event, you should make sure you have enough space in your Poké Bag.

Additionally, you will of course need Poké Balls for catching. If you want to play actively on both days, you should plan for at least 350 balls per event day so that you don’t have to get new ones directly at the Poké Stop.

These items are suitable for the Community Day: As you have a 4 times shorter hatch time for eggs during the event, it is advisable to have enough incubators available. Make sure to take this opportunity to hatch eggs with a long walking distance, like the 12 km eggs from Team GO Rocket.

Prepare yourself with enough items for the event

Additionally, you should have enough incense ready so that you can catch as many strong and/or shiny Eevees as possible. Since the incense lasts for 3 hours, you need a total of 4. The same applies to lures. However, keep in mind that you need a Moss Module for the evolution of Leafeon and a Glacier Module for the evolution of Glaceon.

Is the Community Day Worth It?

Eevee is one of the Pokémon that spawn regularly in the game. It is thus more frequently obtainable. According to the overview from PvPoke, it has relatively poor stats in terms of attack, stamina, and defense, which means it does not play a role in the PvP league and raids (via pvpoke.com).

However, Eevee has numerous evolutions that can become really strong. In particular, Glaceon, Espeon, Leafeon, and Sylveon are among the best attackers in Pokémon GO. To catch as many strong specimens as possible, you should take advantage of the Community Day with Eevee and catch diligently.

Furthermore, you can encounter Eevee in its shiny form as well. Due to the increased spawn rate, your chances are quite good to catch one or the other. Typically, the probability of encountering a shiny specimen is 1 in 450. However, during past events, this was usually reduced to about 1 in 25.

Pokémon GO Shiny Eevee Overview
Eevee and its evolutions normal and shiny

You can recognize shiny Eevee, as seen in the picture, by its lighter color. You can then also evolve this Eevee, of course. So if you want to have a complete Pokédex, you should diligently keep an eye out for shiny Eevee. This way, shiny hunters will also get their money’s worth.

If you are not interested in Eevee at all, you can at least take advantage of the shorter hatching distance for eggs.

More about Eevee and its evolutions:

What do you think of the Community Day with Eevee? Which evolution is your favorite and must be in your collection? Feel free to share your opinion with us here on MeinMMO in the comments!

Not really your thing? We have looked at which events are still coming up in August 2021 in Pokémon GO and show you which of them are particularly worth it.

WoW players demand from Blizzard: “Finally pull the emergency brake!”

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

A cry goes through the community of World of Warcraft again. Blizzard is said to be ready to “pull the ripcord” – the voices are getting louder.

With the release of the last story chapter of Patch 9.1 Chains of Domination, the new content in World of Warcraft is temporarily completed. In the coming months, everything will revolve around revisiting already known content – namely PvP, raids, and dungeons on Mythic+.

What is the “ripcord”? The ripcord is a metaphor introduced by Game Director Ion Hazzikostas before the release of WoW: Shadowlands. When asked whether Blizzard could eventually make all covenants purely cosmetic and allow players to belong to all covenants, the Game Director stated at the time: “If we really had to make that decision, the ripcord would be there.”

Since then, this has been demanded again and again.

Why is this issue so relevant right now? There are several reasons. On the one hand, with Patch 9.1 Chains of Domination, the covenants and their abilities have changed. There has been a lot of balancing, and what was previously considered the strongest covenant for a class has changed for many. Affected players are now frustrated that they have to choose between their unlocked content – such as the upgraded covenant sanctum – or the best covenant ability. Because after switching covenants, all of that is lost.

At the same time, many are disturbed by the system, as they now want to play second characters. It feels bad for many players to have unlocked so much transmog and mounts that cannot be used on twinks because they do not belong to the right covenant. There is a desire here to lift the limitation.

There is also a continuous demand for the elimination of conduit energy, without which one cannot switch conduits. Especially druids, who have four specializations but can only rely on three soul bonds, suffer from being unable to play their fourth specialization.

More current updates around World of Warcraft can be found here:

What do the players say? In a post on reddit discussing the topic, over 4,500 players agreed and contributed their own ideas and suggestions on how Blizzard can make the “rest of Shadowlands” more bearable. Some of their ideas we present here.

Stone-Bear writes:

GET RID OF CONDUIT ENERGY.
I am a druid with 4 specializations. I want to play them all. I don’t want to feel like I “could” be better just because my fourth specialization is locked behind three soul bonds.

Desdenova32 wishes for something entirely different:

A way to skip the intro experience of Shadowlands and you have my approval. It brings me down every time I want to play a new character.

Other players want the “party sync” feature at level 60 and for all old content. Horror_Distribution writes:

Sync to old content: Party sync is wonderful. A great technique. But why is it so limited? Let me go to the adventure board and scale down to the level of The Burning Crusade or Legion or Mists of Pandaria. I don’t want to one-shot everything when I play old content and want to experience the story. I want to feel like I’m really playing it.

What do you think of the whole “ripcord” demand? Would it be the best for Shadowlands? Or are the covenants good as they are?

First images of CoD 2021 leaked – Probably called ‘Vanguard’ and set in World War II

Maik Schneider Maik Schneider Reading time 3 minutes

There have already been many speculations about the Call of Duty from 2021 and slowly the picture of the latest CoD is sharpening. Data miners have now found supposed images of the new shooter in the data from Black Ops Cold War, which is said to actually be called “Vanguard” and offers a setting in World War II.

What’s going on? Every year a new Call of Duty is released – so much is already known. But not everything is the same as always. Even the last CoD, Black Ops Cold War, was only revealed in August 2020 and apparently, CoD 2021 continues this new pattern. The CoD from 2019, Modern Warfare, had its reveal already in May 2019 and the CoDs before that also showed early images of the new title early in the year.

However, there have been hardly any concrete statements to the players about CoD 2021 so far. Only information from an investor call, in which the developers assure that CoD 2021 will be released in the fourth quarter and that players will find a familiar and popular setting (via CharlieIntel.com). But the leakers and data miners are not asleep.

First images of “Vanguard” found in Cold War data

What is there to see? First of all: There are no images of gameplay or anything similar yet. The images that are currently circulating come from the in-game shop of Cold War and likely show promotional images that will be seen for the purchasable product in the shop. In total, there are four images in a gallery on reddit. Click on the thread to see the images on reddit:

Images in the thread

  • A large image with 4 soldiers and the caption “Call of Duty Vanguard” with palm trees in the background
  • Image for the Ultimate Edition with a windmill in the background
  • The first image slightly modified for the “Cross-Gen Bundle”
  • A collection of images that possibly show the contents of the Ultimate Edition

How reliable is the information? Take the new information with a grain of skepticism. These are leaks, and there is no certainty that they are real images. However, in the leaker community of CoD, the images are considered real. One of the most active Twitter accounts around Call of Duty data mining, @Cheezburgerboyz, has confirmed that the images are in the game. But one cannot know for sure.

What can be concluded from the images? The most obvious thing: The name of the game. “Vanguard” has long been a favorite for the name of the latest CoD, but for a long time, data miners assumed it was a placeholder or project name. Apparently, this is actually the title of CoD 2021. However, there is still no definitive certainty.

The same applies to the setting. Palm trees can be seen, which suggest locations near an ocean. On the other hand, a typical windmill is visible, which hints at European locations. Both would fit a setting in World War II, with battles in Europe and the Pacific Ocean as well as to the developers’ statement that players will see a familiar and popular setting.

The three images of soldiers on the supposed contents of the Ultimate Edition would also fit. “Lucas” fights in the hot sun of Africa, “Polina” in the severe winter of Russia, and “Wade” in the treacherous jungle of a Pacific island. All real locations of World War II.

But also keep in mind: Such images can still be adjusted or exchanged. A forgery cannot be ruled out either.

Presentation of Vanguard next week?

When could the official presentation be? If you believe some leaks, it could be as early as next week. Much currently points to Season 5, and the timing would also fit. The date of August 19 is often mentioned, but the entire week from August 18 to 25 seems likely (via dualshockers.com).

There is even an official hint at a Vanguard reveal in Season 5:

A line with letters from the Japanese language apparently shows “Vanguard is coming” in the background of the Season 5 promotion. It is quite possible that before the reveal it will become mysterious again and players will have to go on a treasure hunt to get new information. During the presentation of Cold War, this “puzzle phase” lasted about a week and ended with the first teaser for Cold War. The complete reveal with the first trailer then took place in the Battle Royale Warzone.

More news about Call of Duty:

However it turns out – CoD 2021 will be released this year, and slowly the first official hints/information should start coming in. Currently, there is still nothing concrete, and the information comes either from leaks or unclear sources. But the density of information is increasing, and every day the bomb could finally drop. Last year, it was even a bag of chips that provided the first real hint about Cold War. Let’s see how it goes this year.

Are you actually excited about a new CoD? What do you think about the setting? Feel free to share your thoughts with us in the comments on MeinMMO.

Back 4 Blood: 10 Tips for Beginners at the Start of the Open Beta

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 6 minutes

Back 4 Blood starts the open beta – and everyone can join in. We have 10 tips for you to give the zombies a proper fight at the beginning.

After the closed beta test took place last week, the open beta for Back 4 Blood is now available. Therefore, everyone can try out the new zombie co-op shooter and decide whether the game is worth the full price. But to avoid being identified as a noob and getting infected by zombies right away, we have 10 tips for you that will make survival significantly easier.

When can you play the beta? The open beta begins on August 12, 2021. Until August 16, all interested players can check out Back 4 Blood for free. No pre-order is required; everyone can download the beta client, for example on PC via Steam.

On which platforms can you play Back 4 Blood? Back 4 Blood will be available on current and last generation consoles as well as PC. All supported platforms are:

  • Xbox Series X|S
  • Xbox One
  • PlayStation 5
  • PlayStation 4
  • PC (Steam, Epic Games Store, Microsoft Store)

To ensure you are not overrun by hordes of zombies in the beta right away, here are some useful tips and tricks to help you through your first campaigns.

1. Use different weapon types in the group

Back 4 Blood has a fairly small selection of weapons, and they all share 4 types of ammunition. Since ammunition is limited and you rarely get new ones during a level, you must manage your ammunition wisely.

This also means you should use 2 weapons that use different ammunition. For example, when you have emptied your Uzi, it’s good to have an assault rifle in reserve. If your secondary weapon is a melee weapon, this doesn’t apply, of course.

A good mix of multiple weapons is more successful than equipping all players with submachine guns.

The same applies across the entire team. It’s good if all players use different weapons to prevent ammunition shortages. If all players use only assault rifles, there probably won’t be any bullets left halfway through the map.

Always pay attention to your teammates’ announcements. The different characters have special voice lines that they play when they have less than 2 magazines for their current weapon. In that case, you can simply open your overview window (Tab on PC) and click on the various ammunition types. You can then drop this ammunition so that other players can pick it up. Mark your ammunition piles with the ping system to ensure nothing is overlooked.

2. Friendly Fire can be deadly

At the lowest difficulty, this is not a problem, but from the “Veteran” level onward, friendly fire becomes a real danger. Ensure you don’t hit your teammates, as this can quickly deplete their health points, which can lead to the whole group failing.

This also means that you should not run in front of other players. Pay attention to your teammates’ positions, and if you are at the front lines, crouch down so that your teammates can shoot over your head at the zombies.

3. Use the ping system

Back 4 Blood has a fairly simple ping system that allows you to mark certain things in the world for everyone. Did you find a strong weapon, see a special zombie in the distance, or a med-station? Just mark them with a key press (default: Q). The corresponding object will then be displayed for everyone in the group and usually also verbally described by your character.

4. Stick together – and always

For old “Left 4 Dead” veterans, this is old news, but newcomers need to learn this. Back 4 Blood is not a game where one person can be the big hero. Only as a team will you be successful. If you think of yourself as the biggest zombie slayer under the sun, charge in alone, or explore isolated places by yourself, you will sooner or later be surprised by a special zombie. Whether it’s a sleeper, a lurker, or a tallboy – many zombies have special attacks that can hold and ultimately kill a survivor alone for an infinite amount of time.

Holly starts with a melee weapon – which hits hard.

5. Melee is your best friend

Melee attacks can be extremely effective if you have a strong melee weapon (like a large axe) or have equipped the combat knife card. Most normal zombies die with a single attack.

It is particularly important that a melee attack in Back 4 Blood does not interrupt the reloading of your weapon – it is only paused briefly and then resumes from the same point in the animation.

If you don’t have a melee weapon, you can at least push zombies away from you to buy some valuable seconds.

6. Copper is a team resource, use it that way

Copper is the currency in the game that you can use to buy items in safe rooms and at med stations. Although each player has their own supply of copper, you should think of it more as a team resource.

This is especially important for the various upgrades that apply to the whole team. They usually cost 1,500 copper, which a single player must pay. It’s best to pool your resources to ensure everyone benefits from the bonuses.

You can also drop copper – just like ammunition – on the ground so other players can pick it up. Use this to equip your whole team.

It’s also worth noting that it is very rarely worthwhile to save copper if you are not fully equipped. Every Molotov bought and every pack of pills could save your life or your team’s life. Copper that you don’t spend is simply of no use to the team.

7. Always have a tool kit with you

Make sure there is at least one tool kit available in the group on each map. Almost every time there is a locked “bonus room” or some locked weapon crates that can only be opened with a tool kit.

Especially the bonus room is always worth opening. You will usually find copper there – more than the tool kit cost. Additionally, you’ll often find ammunition, bonus cards, or a med-station where you can heal for free or for 400 copper (depending on difficulty). This even alleviates some of the annoying trauma damage.

GameStar tries to find out if Back 4 Blood is also worth it for old “Left 4 Dead” veterans.

8. Edit your deck as soon as you can

After completing your first games and unlocking new cards through the “Supply Lines” in the game, you should edit your deck. You can do this in Fort Hope and it’s quite simple.

What is important to know is that the order in which cards are arranged in your deck also determines the order in which you draw them in the game. Therefore, place particularly important cards at the beginning to have them at the start of a round.

9. Pay attention to bonus missions

At the beginning of most missions, the AI director plays so-called “Corruption Cards” that make the game harder. Some of these are challenges, such as a time limit or the requirement to arrive at the goal with all cleaners alive. You should always try to master these challenges, as they are rewarded with 500 copper – which means 2,000 for the whole team. This is more than the cost of a team upgrade.

You can find more about “Back 4 Blood” in these articles on MeinMMO:

10. Heal other players when you can

Unlike the original Left 4 Dead, in Back 4 Blood, it is possible to provide other players with all healing items. Whether it’s a med kit or pills – if you target another player, you can “force” the medication on them and heal them. This is particularly useful when the other player has a strong weapon with which they can keep the zombies at bay. This way, the injured player can keep firing while you bandage them.

FIFA 22: Pre-order bonus – Until when can you pre-order and receive the contents?

Julian Schröder Julian Schröder Reading time 3 minutes

FIFA 22 will be released soon and we will show you what pre-order bonuses are available, until when you can pre-order, and how the different versions differ.

Until when can you pre-order? You can pre-order FIFA 22 in all versions until the release on October 1, 2021, and receive various pre-order bonuses. You will only receive these contents if you purchased the game before the release. After the release of FIFA 22, the additional content will be gone.

We will show you the different bonuses of the respective FIFA versions.

You can find everything about the release of FIFA 22 here.

These pre-order bonuses are available in FIFA 22

These versions are available: FIFA 22 will be released this year in two different versions, which differ only in the bonus content for pre-orders. The game content and modes are completely identical.

The following versions of FIFA 22 are available:

  • FIFA 22 Standard Edition for PS4 and Xbox One – 69.99 €
  • FIFA 22 Standard Edition for PS5 and Xbox Series – 79.99 €
  • FIFA 22 Standard Edition for PC – 59.99 €
  • FIFA 22 Ultimate Edition for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series – 99.99 €
  • FIFA 22 Ultimate Edition for PC – 79.99 €
The official trailer for FIFA 22 presents the new gameplay.

These bonuses are offered in the Standard Edition of FIFA 22

  • Team-of-the-Week player (FUT)
  • Mbappé loan card (FUT)
  • FUT Ambassador loan player (FUT)
  • Career mode homegrown talent (Career mode)
The cover of the Standard Edition of FIFA 22.

Should you pre-order the Standard Edition? The Standard Edition of FIFA 22 offers some interesting bonuses, especially for FUT players. However, it’s a pity that the loan cards will likely be consumed quickly. There is also a danger that the random TOTW player might turn out to be quite weak. For Career Mode players, the homegrown talent with high potential is likely to be interesting.

However, if you can wait, don’t play FUT, and don’t need to play FIFA 22 right at release, then you don’t necessarily have to pre-order the Standard Edition.

These bonuses are offered in the Ultimate Edition of FIFA 22

  • Early access starting on September 27, 2021
  • Team-of-the-Week player (FUT)
  • Mbappé loan card (FUT)
  • FUT Ambassador loan player (FUT)
  • Career mode homegrown talent (Career mode)
  • Ones-to-Watch card (FUT)
  • 4,600 FIFA Points
  • Both version eligibility (PS5 and PS4 or Xbox Series and Xbox One)
The cover of the Ultimate Edition of FIFA 22.

However, there is no longer a pre-order bonus for the Ultimate Edition – the random FUT Heroes card was only available with a pre-order until August 11, 2021.

Should you pre-order the Ultimate Edition? If you can’t wait and want to start FIFA 22 as soon as possible, then there is no way around the Ultimate Edition. The early access is particularly interesting for FUT players, as they can start building their team early to gain an advantage. The 4,600 FIFA Points are also likely to be an argument for many players to get some early packs.

What do you think about the different versions of FIFA 22? Which one will you get? Let us know in the comments!

Splitgate shows values for the best weapons in the hit shooter on Steam, PS5 and Xbox

Benedict Grothaus Benedict Grothaus Reading time 3 minutes

The new shooter Splitgate is currently taking over Steam, PlayStation, and Xbox. A well-known CoD expert has looked at which of the available weapons are the best – and the developers have responded.

Splitgate is currently the big summer hit. The game is so popular, that more players are flocking in than the developers can provide spaces on servers.

The new shooter roughly combines the well-known games Halo and Portal in a novel old-school experience: in fast rounds, you shoot at your opponents in teams and create portals to move faster across the maps.

You have a total of 11 weapons available, of which we now know which are the best.

The trailer for Splitgate – Lots of action in tight spaces.

Where do the numbers come from? The CoD expert TheXclusiveAce is known for his extremely detailed analyses of weapon values. For example, he is also the author of the analysis of the strongest weapons in CoD Warzone.

In a new video, he examined the values of the weapons in Splitgate and published a document with his results. The developers responded and confirmed most of his numbers, particularly his findings (via Twitter.com).

The best weapons in Splitgate

Which weapons have the lowest TTK? The strength of weapons in shooters is primarily measured by two values: their damage and their associated “Time To Kill” (TTK). The TTK is calculated from the damage dealt and the rate of fire of the weapon, indicating how quickly you can kill an opponent with full health.

Players in Splitgate start with 100 health points. Based on that, and with shots from close range to the torso (without headshot multiplier), there are 3 or 4 weapons that can already kill with a single shot:

Railgun

  • TTK: 0 milliseconds
  • Damage (Body/Head): 150/150; Rate of fire
  • 0.75 seconds (+1 second charge time)

Rocket Launcher

  • TTK: 0 milliseconds
  • Damage (Body/Head): 150/150
  • Rate of fire: 1 second

Shotgun

  • TTK: 0 milliseconds
  • Damage (Body/Head): 25/30 per pellet (7 pellets per shot)
  • Rate of fire: 1 second

The BFB

  • TTK: 0 milliseconds
  • Damage (Body/Head): 150/150
  • Rate of fire: 0.85 seconds

TTK for other weapons:

  • Plasma Rifle – TTK: 525 milliseconds
  • SMG – TTK: 585 milliseconds
  • Assault Rifle – TTK: 720 milliseconds
  • Pistol – TTK: 744 milliseconds; Damage
  • Sniper – TTK: 857 milliseconds
  • Battle Rifle – TTK: 1000 milliseconds
  • Carbine – TTK: 1139 milliseconds

The damage in this list shows the maximum possible damage to body/head. The numbers are a mix of official data (damage and rate of fire) and those from TheXclusiveAce (TTK). The developers also state that the values may change. We have embedded Ace’s video for you here:

Some weapons like the assault rifle, shotgun, or submachine gun lose strength over distance, so they are not always equally good. The rocket launcher’s effectiveness decreases if opponents are too far from the detonation.

Numbers aren’t everything – How to read the list correctly

What to watch for: The numbers indicate how quickly you are if you hit all shots at close range in the chest. In some cases, even a single headshot can drastically shorten the TTK.

Additionally, weapons like the submachine gun can barely hit reliably even at medium range, which significantly increases the time. The numbers are therefore more of a guideline than an absolute ranking.

More on the topic at MeinMMO:

Which weapon should I use? Ace himself says that the “best weapon” can be different for each player. If you are less accurate, the rocket launcher can be a good choice. If your aim is always on point, snipers or battle rifles will serve you better.

It’s best to try out the weapons yourself. Although the originally planned release had to be postponed, Splitgate will officially release in August, but you can currently play the beta for free on PC (Steam), Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.

Skill Points in Bless Unleashed – Everything about Farming and Resetting

Mark Sellner Mark Sellner Reading time 3 minutes

Learning the various Blessings in Bless Unleashed requires a lot of patience and a lot of skill points. But don’t worry: you can’t really mess up your skills in this new MMORPG.

How does the skill system work in Bless? In the new MMO, you learn skills by progressing through various Blessings in your skill tree. As you advance in a specific Blessing, you unlock new abilities. However, you cannot use all Blessings at the same time.

Once you have learned all the skills within a Blessing, it unlocks a passive bonus that you can even benefit from when you are not actively using that Blessing. So it might be worth targeting these passive bonuses.

Can you reset your skill points? Yes, there is a skill reset scroll in the game that allows you to reset your points. Some of them were distributed during the beta for playing the game, or as compensation for server downtimes.

Aside from that, you can purchase skill reset scrolls for real money in the ingame shop.

But there is good news: Strictly speaking, you don’t actually need a skill reset because it’s generally possible to learn all skills and Blessings in Bless.

The skill system in Bless Unleashed

This is how “Skill Points Farming” works

How do you farm best? Bless Unleashed uses a system called SXP, or Skill Experience. Every SXP point brings you 5% closer to a new skill point. So you need 20 SXP to get a skill point.

The easiest way to gather SXP is by completing quests. Quest rewards almost always include SXP and there are plenty of quests in the game, so you shouldn’t run out. Many of the tasks may seem generic, but questing is the most effective and fastest way to gain new skill points.

Defeating world bosses also grants you skill points, so you should keep an eye on participating in such battles.

More about Bless Unleashed on MeinMMO

What you need to watch out for: While it can be relatively quick to farm new skill points, you should be cautious. You should focus on learning particularly important skills at the beginning and not just any skills. Since there is no skill reset, you cannot get back any points you have spent.

Already plan ahead for which passive bonuses and skills you absolutely want to have while leveling. This will save you a lot of farming, which some players find tedious.

If you find it tedious to farm these skill points, the colleagues at GameStar show you in this video other MMORPGs that are coming out this year:

2021 is a good year for MMO players!

Have you played Bless Unleashed already? What do you think of the controversial reboot of the Bless brand? And are you having trouble getting skill points? Have you perhaps already experienced great battles against world bosses? Tell us about it and feel free to leave us a comment here on MeinMMO.
