One of the challenges this week in Fortnite is to collect two cat food packages. We will show you where they are located so you can unlock XP for your Battle Pass.
What is this task about? Season 7 of Fortnite is in full swing. Now the challenges of week 3 are live.
In this challenge, you need to collect two cat food packages. There are several packages to be found. We will show you where you can grab the packages to complete the task easily.
Where to find cat food?
In Dirty Docks you will find 2 packages of cat food
We have marked the locations of the cat food at Dirty Docks on the map above. You can also find a package at the northern end of Retail Row if you are right there.
You will easily recognize the packages while gliding at the beginning of a match, as they are marked with graffiti in the shape of cats.
Here you can find more guides on the week 3 challenges in Season 7:
As always, your biggest challenge will be the other players who are also trying to complete the challenge. Therefore, we recommend that you find a weapon immediately after landing to defend yourself – or wait a few days until the rush subsides before attempting to complete this challenge.

The requirements for the best loot in World of Warcraft increase with Patch 9.1. We reveal how to get the best loot in the future.
In World of Warcraft, there are many ways to get good equipment. One of them is the “Mythic+” dungeons, the hardest that WoW has to offer for 5 players. But in order to grab the best loot in Patch 9.1 Chains of Domination, you will have to face a slightly tougher challenge in the future. The highest item level is only available if you can also handle the difficulty of “+15”.
What has changed? In Patch 9.1, you must now complete a dungeon with the difficulty of “+15” in order to receive the best possible reward from the weekly cache. Only then can you ensure that you receive a really good reward corresponding to the maximum possible item level on the following Wednesday.
In return, there is the best reward that can be directly obtained from dungeons, but already at “Mythic+14”. So the requirement is slightly lowered here.
What rewards will there be in the future? The item level from the weekly chest and the “Mythic+” dungeons increases in Patch 9.1. The following list reveals what reward you can expect in the future:
How was it before? Currently, it is still the case that completing a “Mythic+14” dungeon is sufficient to pull the maximum item level of 226 from the chest in the coming week. The limit seemed a bit strange since normally “+15” has always been the threshold needed for achievements. With Patch 9.1, this is finally consistent and easier to understand.
What do you think of this adjustment? A good thing that finally makes the system more logical? Or annoying and just more hassle to get good loot?

In Fortnite: Battle Royale you have to place boomboxes in Believer Beach. At least that is one of the legendary challenges from week 3 of season 7. We will show you where the boomboxes are located and how to complete the task.
What kind of task is this?The summer event has started in Fortnite and a big welcome party is being held for the aliens. In week 3 of the season, you need to place 2 boomboxes to create the right party atmosphere.
We will show you where you need to place the boomboxes to complete the task quickly and get the party started soon.
Place Boomboxes in Believer Beach – Locations
Where do you need to go? For this task, you should head to Believer Beach. With the start of season 7, not only the name of the location has changed, but also the location itself – this is one of the changes that have occurred on the map.
The welcome party for the aliens is taking place in Believer Beach, and you are supposed to set up boomboxes there. There are 4 locations you can visit for this task – however, you only need 2 boxes for the task. You can find them in Believer Beach here:
By the “Crop Circle” that was left on the beach of Believer Beach
On the dance floor located in the middle of Believer Beach
On the left side, before you head to the long pier
On the road, in front of the trailer park
Here are the boomboxes in Believer Beach
What do you need to do? To place the boomboxes, all you have to do is stand in front of the desired item and interact with it. You will recognize the boxes because they glow blue. Once you have placed them, they will become a permanent part of the decoration in those locations.
Once you have done this and placed both boomboxes, the task will be considered complete. After that, you will receive your earned experience points.
In Destiny 2, a mysterious case is engaging players. The German content creator Dr. BadBeard has discovered a secret message that is now intriguing the master detectives of the community.
In total, 45 Guardians worldwide received such a surprise box. Inside the case, there is, among other things, a UV lamp, a cassette, and a map that can only be deciphered under UV light.
Notable English-speaking figures like Rick Kackis were included – but also the biggest German-speaking Destiny streamer Nexxoss Gaming and the previously known German-speaking Dr. BadBeard from Destiny 1 received a package from Bungie.
Immediately, speculation about the 45 cases began. The Guardians wondered: is this just PR for the ongoing Season 14 of Destiny 2 or is there more to it? Because Bungie is known for presenting riddles to the Guardians – some exotic puzzles take years to solve. The first breakthrough was achieved by the German content creator Dr. BadBeard, as he listened closely.
On the trail of the secret from Season 14 with good ears
This is the secret message: Dr. BadBeard, – or simply Simon – examined all the contents closely (in the title image). Especially the old-school cassette aroused his curiosity. And hidden there, alongside the soundtrack for Season 14, was also a secret story.
We hear a tale from Crow. The character formerly known as Uldren recounts his time as Spiders’ “servant”. As Crow wanders aimlessly through the tangled bay, he also meets some Eliksni (Fallen). The parties do not understand each other, suddenly music is heard, and a party night begins. The Eliksni dance with their four arms in the air to a song by Paul McCartney, while Crow claims to have one of the best nights of his life – all without understanding a word.
Check out the video here to see how Dr. BadBeard shares his discoveries:

How did he find that out? According to his own statement, Simon is a hobby music producer, enjoys working on electronic tracks, and gets excited about music in video games. Due to his hobby, he has the necessary equipment to create a spectrogram from the cassette and examined the seemingly almost empty B-side of the cassette. Once digitized, the analog medium ultimately revealed the story of Crow among the Eliksni.
But what it all ultimately means and what the mysterious whispers really are, which can still be heard at the end, unfortunately, he does not know. Now the master detectives should help.

The “Wizards” of Destiny 2 are just starting to puzzle
What does this mean now? Dr. BadBeard immediately posted his discovery at Raid-Secrets (via reddit). Because, according to him, this is where the “wizards of the Destiny community” live, who love to crack Bungie’s riddles.
And indeed, the detectives immediately dive into the new data. There is a flood of technical terms and analyses about vacant spaces, notes that need to be played backwards, and more through reddit. Initial insights point to Vex sounds, Quria, the corrupted mind, and even the Glass Vault…
We might have to wait a while longer for the solution to the puzzle.
What do you think about such puzzles that Bungie keeps the Guardians busy with constantly? It is amazing how persistent the Destiny community is and in how many different areas there is expertise. Do you think the secret story on the cassette is just an Easter egg, or does it actually have something to do with the story of Season 14? Do you believe this is just the beginning of a new, big puzzle? Let us know in the comments.

In Fortnite: Battle Royale you need to place welcome signs in Lazy Lake and Pleasant Park. At least, that’s one of the legendary challenges from Week 3 of Season 7. We will show you where the signs are located and how to complete the task.
What kind of task is this?The summer event has started in Fortnite and a big welcome party for the aliens is being celebrated. In Week 3 of the Season, you are now to place various welcome signs to make the aliens feel at home.
We will show you where to place the welcome signs in Pleasant Park and Lazy Lake so you can complete the task quickly and the party can start soon. A glimpse of the party was already seen in the Season 7 trailer.
You have two different locations to choose from – Pleasant Park or Lazy Lake – of which you only need to complete one for the challenges.
Place Welcome Signs in Pleasant Park
Where do you need to go? At the named location Pleasant Park, you can place 5 different welcome signs – for this task, you need to land there first. After that, you will find the signs in Pleasant Park here:
Next to the grandstand of the open soccer field
In front of the house located southwest in Pleasant Park
In the middle of Pleasant Park at the covered grill area
In front of the house located northwest in Pleasant Park
Next to a tree that is located north of the gas station
Welcome signs in Pleasant Park
Place Welcome Signs in Lazy Lake
Where do you need to go? At the named location Lazy Lake, you can also place 5 different welcome signs – for this task, you need to land there first. After that, you will find the signs in Lazy Lake here:
At the northeast entrance of Lazy Lake
Next to a staircase leading to the large pool house
By the small lake, next to the docking area
On the road, north in Lazy Lake
On the western road of Lazy Lake
To complete this legendary challenge, you only need to place a total of 4 signs. Once you have done this, the task is considered fulfilled and you will receive your earned experience points.
You will need these points if you want to fully unlock the Season 7 Battle Pass.

Weeks ago, data miners discovered some new features in Pokémon GO. Now, further details about new medals in the game have been revealed. We have looked into what these medals are and summarized the information for you.
What’s new? As was revealed in the last leak by data miners regarding the current update 0.211.0, there will soon be new raid achievements and a raid stadium in Pokémon GO. In this context, the first images of new medals have also been found (via reddit.com).
These are the new medals in Pokémon GO
As with other medals in the game, these will again come in bronze, silver, gold, and platinum. Each image shows a trophy in the color of the medal. The typical raid symbol is featured on it. Floral wreaths embellish the badge around the trophy.

You can achieve the bronze medal with just a single interaction. For the silver, you need 50 interactions, and for the gold, 200 interactions. To secure the platinum medal, however, 500 interactions are required.
What can you earn the medals for?
The specific reasons for which you can earn the medals are not clearly revealed from the data miners’ information. However, the medal strongly resembles the previous medal for won raids based on its appearance.
For this reason, it is presumed that these may be related to the announced raid stadium. It is also conceivable that this medal will be given in connection with the announced raid achievements.
No official information about these medals and the implementation of raid achievements and the raid stadium in Pokémon GO is currently available. As soon as there are new updates on this, we will of course inform you here at MeinMMO.
What does the community say? On reddit, users have split opinions. Some trainers are rather unimpressed, while others, like Elrathias, are looking forward to another platinum medal (via reddit.com). Reddit user Duarjo, on the other hand, wishes for a way to showcase their new medals in the future (via reddit.com).
What else has been found in Pokémon GO?
In addition to the new images of the raid medals, new visual representations related to the raid stadium in Pokémon GO have also been provided. However, these changes are not yet visible in the game (via reddit.com).
Additionally, two more gold medals have been discovered (via reddit.com). These include a badge awarded for your participation in the Pokémon GO Fest 2021 and another medal associated with the TCG trading card game.

What’s going on with the TCG trading card game? As announced by Niantic, Professor Willow will make his debut in the Pokémon trading card game in July (via pokemongolive.com). For this reason, you will receive a promo code along with the trading card of Professor Willow, which you can use for Pokémon GO.
With this promo code, a special task related to the mysterious Pokémon Meltan will be unlocked for you in the game. Based on the images found by the data miners, it is assumed that you will receive this medal for participating in this special research.

In the Aeternum Tour, the developers of New World regularly provide insights into the various areas of the game. The latest video focuses on one of the endgame zones. We at MeinMMO were allowed to exclusively publish this video in advance.
What does the video show? The latest video in the Aeternum Tour showcases the endgame area Bruchberg. There, many of the Corrupted lurk, enemies that have been tainted by the mysterious mineral Azoth.
The area Bruchberg is divided into different zones and special locations:
On the way north, there is the small settlement Bergklause and to the east, the outpost Mountain’s Ascent. They serve as a refuge for players.
However, the Corrupted also have various fortresses under control in the area, including Caminus, which was already shown early in screenshots.
North of Bergklause, there is also a mine of the Corrupted, Ambusti Inferior. This mine is said to be particularly difficult to traverse due to its labyrinth system.
Also in Bruchberg is the cave Rotfellow Hovel, where some of the strongest opponents of Aeternum are said to roam.
The biggest challenge, however, is supposed to be Duskheim. This is the largest fortress of the Corrupted, and only the strongest players are said to be able to fight their way through.
The various zones will be thoroughly introduced to you in this video:

New World placed a great focus on new mid- and endgame content during the alpha
What is the problem with endgame and New World? During the first test in summer 2020, New World left a mixed impression. The monotonous quests were particularly criticized. But there were also great concerns regarding mid- and endgame content.
At the time of the test, the game offered only a boss fight arena, a few open-world events, one endgame area, and PvP wars for fortresses, which were only available at certain times.
However, during the alpha, these points of criticism were worked on intensively:
Whether these contents are sufficient to keep players engaged in the long term will be shown in the weeks after the release, which takes place on August 31, while there will already be a beta for New World in July.
What do you think of New World in general, the area Bruchberg, and the endgame content? Feel free to write it in the comments.
Pocketpair, the developers of the controversial upcoming survival game Palworld, feel misunderstood by the feedback on their game. The game is supposed to be a survival game like ARK and not a brutal Pokémon game where you have to kill and eat cute animals.
What is Palworld? Palworld looks in the trailers on Steam like a game where you run through the wilderness with guns and encounter Pokémon (called “Pals” in the game). The creatures look very similar to the little monsters from Nintendo’s franchise, and in Palworld, you can catch and tame them.
But what follows does not fit the cute flair of Pokémon at all:
Pals are used as labor slaves
In one scene, they toil as enslaved forced laborers on an assembly line, where they assemble assault rifles
Other scenes show how Pals are shot in the wild
Particularly disturbing is a situation where a player uses a Pal as a living shield in a shootout
You can even slaughter and eat the creatures!
https://youtu.be/EY4lyOH1_0o
What does the community say? All of this has led to a controversial discussion. Many players found the idea of shooting with Pokémon like in CoD and experiencing intense action quite cool. Other players, however, responded with sarcasm to the idea of the game, like user Top Kek:
Finally, a Pokémon game with forced labor, slavery, war crimes, weapons, eugenics, poaching, and destructible environments. Thank you Pocket Pair.
Developer feels misunderstood
What is Palworld according to the developers not? Takuro Mizobe, the lead developer at Pocketpair (known from Craftopia), is pleased with the significant support his game is receiving, but is also somewhat puzzled by what players ultimately expect from the game:
I appreciate the many positive feedbacks we have received, but I have mixed feelings about it. That’s because Palworld is actually completely different from Pokémon.
According to the developer, the game is a hardcore survival shooter that is much closer to games like ARK than to any Pokémon game.
The big difference compared to games like ARK or Conan Exiles is that in Palworld you use your Pals to accomplish tasks.
However, you are still bound by your conscience. Just because you can enslave, kill, and eat the cute Pals, doesn’t mean you have to. No one forces the player to engage in such questionable actions:
People talk about Palworld as if it were an evil game without heart, but that is not our intention. However, if you are hungry and about to die, you would do anything to survive, right? Palworld is a game where we implement a high degree of freedom, and it’s up to the players what they do.
The only question left is what players will do in the game when unleashed in a world full of cute little critters. Perhaps different player factions will form that will fight for the freedom of the Pals and defend them against exploitative slave traders?
If the lightning strike hits your own cat in Minecraft , it is extremely bitter. A player stares blankly at the sky.
In Minecraft, there are a lot of ways to find an inglorious end. Suddenly appearing Creepers, the devastating digging into a lava lake, or overestimating one’s jumping ability. But the weather can also quickly ruin plans in Minecraft – and even roast a pet.
What happened? The player Eyt_S published a small clip from his current Minecraft world. The clip titled “What did I do to deserve this, God?” starts off rather harmless. Eyt_S is currently renovating his base and replacing the floor. Peacefully, his cat is sitting next to the house while he enjoys a snack and works on the building. The snow is gently falling, and it couldn’t be more harmonious.
Then, without warning, a thunder strikes and directs a lightning strike near Eyt_S. Although the player is missed, the lightning strikes exactly on the cat. Moments later, the message appears that the cat has gone up in flames.

Staring in disbelief, Eyt_S looks at the sky while the small spot where his cat was sitting before is still smoldering a bit.
How likely is that? Even though the incident seems like extreme bad luck – it’s actually not that unlikely, as user ChocoMilkr1098 calculates in the subreddit. Depending on how long a thunderstorm lasts in Minecraft – between half a day and a full day – the probability of lightning striking exactly where the cat was increases. In the end, he concludes that the probability, depending on the duration of the thunderstorm, is between 1:1075 and 1:2124. In other words: The chance during a thunderstorm is between 0.09% and 0.047%.
There could have been protection: Particularly bitter is the fact that one could have protected themselves from the lightning strike. Since the big patch 1.17, there is the new material copper, from which players can build a lightning rod. It intercepts lightning and safely channels it into the ground, preventing fire from starting. Eyt_S apparently forewent this additional protection, and as a result, a cat had to pay with its life.
Have you also experienced such an unfortunate coincidence in Minecraft with a lightning strike? Or have you been spared from such fateful lightning strikes?

In Korea läuft die erste Closed Beta zum neuen MMORPG Digimon Super Rumble. Erste Videos zeigen eine hübsche Spielwelt und verraten endlich Details zum Spiel. Besonders interessant ist das strategische und rundenbasierte Kampfsystem, das für MMORPGs eher unüblich ist.
There is a character editor where you can design your Tamer. With this, you traverse the Digiworld and can complete quests, meet other players, and battle other Digimon.
And it is precisely with these battles that the game distinguishes itself from typical MMORPGs.
Turn-based battles reminiscent of Pokémon
How do the battles work? As soon as you encounter an enemy Digimon, you will be sent to a separate battle zone. There, 3 of your Digimon will face off against the enemy. The process resembles turn-based battles and even somewhat resembles Pokémon, as you can swap your Digimon and flee from battles.
Each Digimon has 2 to 3 abilities and one ultimate burst skill.
You select the respective ability, whereby some have a casting time, which means your turn might be skipped.
You can pause the battle at any time and think about how you want to proceed next.
Some abilities of your Digimon can buff or heal your team.
If you have unlocked the option, your Digimon can digitize in battle and reach a higher level.
You can swap your 3 Digimon in battle at any time. In the beta, even defeated Digimon could be swapped, which was probably a bug.
Additionally, the Tamers themselves have an action skill with which they can activate a special buff, including more health or increased attack power for your Digimon. These are items that are consumed. If you no longer have the corresponding item, you cannot activate the buff. Therefore, you should be frugal with them.
A first glimpse into the gameplay of Digimon Super Rumble is provided by a video from YouTuber VihKun, who summarized the key information in English. You can follow the battle starting at minute 20:45:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79RQWZKK9Zc
What else do we know about Super Rumble?
The game world is divided into different maps with loading screens. In the beta, there were 3 areas.
You can theoretically own an endless number of Digimon, but only one follows you in the open world.
You obtain new Digimon by hatching eggs.
There is a Tamer level for your character and separate levels for each Digimon.
Each Digimon has different stats and abilities, making team-building interesting.
There are various costumes for your Tamer.
Beautiful for a Digimon MMO, but overall not modern
How does the game look graphically? Visually, the game makes a good, but not outstanding impression. Compared to other Digimon MMOs, Super Rumble is really nice, but otherwise it feels more like a game from the 2010s.
The game world is not super detailed, and the animations in battles seem rather clunky. Additionally, the overall performance was weak, which could be due to the beta and the fact that it was played on Korean servers.
What was missing in the beta? In the beta, some features of the MMORPG were not yet available. For instance, options for forming parties with other players or content like dungeons were missing.
What about the release or a beta in the West? Currently, there is no information on whether and when the Digimon MMORPG will come to the West.
However, the game’s developer, Move Games, has already created and released the other MMORPGs Digimon Battle Online (2002) and Digimon Masters (2009) in our region. In addition, the beta in Korea was not region-locked, allowing players from outside to participate. Therefore, the chances for a Western release look good.
If you are currently looking for a new MMORPG, you’re in luck. Several new games and expansions are being released this year. We have summarized everything important here: 13 reasons why MMORPG fans can look forward to 2021.

Call of Duty: Warzone and Black Ops Cold War are giving PS Plus members a new Combat Pack to celebrate Season 4. In the free DLC, you will find some exclusive cosmetics that you can now claim as a PS Plus member.
What is this DLC? Call of Duty: Warzone and Black Ops Cold War have launched their fourth joint Season and brought a fresh wind to the game:
At least for PS Plus members, there is even more: the Combat Pack “Skyhook.” Through the mini-DLC, you can secure some special cosmetics centered around the Operator “Park.” We will show you how to get the pack and what’s inside.
The contents of the Season 4 Combat Pack
What’s included in the new Combat Pack for Season 4: You will receive a batch of cosmetic items with a thematic connection. It’s got a bit of everything – there’s just one item you will need to do without in the current combat pack:
Operator skin for Park
Blueprint for the Pellington sniper rifle
Blueprint for the sledgehammer
Weapon charm
Emblem
Calling card
2x tokens for 60 minutes double XP
Where can you use all this? Once you have redeemed the Combat Pack, you can use the items in CoD: Warzone and Cold War. However, to use the operator skin in Warzone, you need Cold War.
There’s even a trailer for the Combat Pack:

The requirements: First and foremost, you must be a PS Plus member. If you have a subscription, you can activate the pack at any time in your “PS Plus” section on the PlayStation.
Once you then start Warzone or Cold War, the items will be available to you. However, using the operator skin is a bit more complicated. The skin is part of an operator from Cold War, and you can only use it if you actually own Cold War. If you only play Warzone, then unfortunately you won’t be able to use the operator. The Park skin can also only be equipped on a PlayStation.
How to get the new Combat Pack: The Combat Pack is already active, and you can claim it at any time. You can find the link to the PS Store here:
The Combat Pack will be available for download throughout Season 4. However, you could miss the pack – once the new Combat Pack goes live in the next season, the old one will disappear.
What about other platforms? The Combat Pack is part of a collaboration between PlayStation and Call of Duty. Similar to the exclusive Zombie mode “Onslaught,” which will only be available on other platforms a year after the release of Cold War. If you don’t have a PS Plus subscription, you have no way to grab the mini-DLC.
This is an AI-powered translation. Some inaccuracies might exist.
If you have done this, the download for the approximately 8 GB update should begin. By the way, if you have already played the current PTR, the download will be significantly smaller. In that case, the client simply retrieves the data from your PTR version.
More updates on World of Warcraft can be found here:
When will the patch be released officially? The release date for Patch 9.1 Chains of Domination is June 30, 2021, so the upcoming Wednesday. After maintenance in the early morning hours, the update will be automatically installed. Many of the new content will then be available. However, not all of it, as the raid “Sanctum of Domination” will open its doors only a week later.
Are you already looking forward to the new patch? Or is it coming “too fast” now, and would you rather finish something like the war spider first?
The first major content patch of WoW: Shadowlands is coming soon. We reveal how you can download most of the game data right now.
After long, far too long months of waiting, Patch 9.1 Chains of Domination for World of Warcraft is finally on the starting blocks. To avoid downloading endless updates on release day, you can already start with the preload. We will show you how it works.
What does the preload bring? With the preload, you can download the upcoming patch of World of Warcraft largely in advance. This reduces the amount of data you will still need to download on the actual patch day, allowing you to get gaming faster.
How does it work? For the preload to work in World of Warcraft, you need to activate it in the game settings beforehand. You do this via the Battle.net client. We will show you step by step where to enable the feature and what it does:
Start the Battle.net app
Click on the Battle.net icon at the top left and select “Settings”
Select the “Downloads” option in the side menu
Scroll down to “Game Updates” and check the option to “Always keep the latest updates for recently played games and download data for future updates”
The option is easy to find.
Additionally, you can also uncheck “Pause updates when a game is launched”. In that case, a patch will also be downloaded while you are playing. However, this can negatively affect your latency.
If you have done this, the download for the approximately 8 GB update should begin. By the way, if you have already played the current PTR, the download will be significantly smaller. In that case, the client simply retrieves the data from your PTR version.

The MMORPG Aion was originally released in 2009 and has changed significantly since then. The new servers aim to bring the game back to its roots and are so exciting at launch that huge queues are forming.
What’s going on? Today, on June 23, the Classic servers of Aion launched in America. However, anyone wanting to play on release day should be prepared for long queues.
The reddit user Hathaway_Noa shared a screenshot showing he is in position 12,456 in the login queue.
According to some users in the comments, the queue from the Siel server has already increased to over 30,000 players. The second server, Israphel, is completely full and the queue is considered “full”. Currently, it is not known how many players are queuing there.

No Pay-to-Progress Items and old memories attract players
What kind of servers are these? The Classic servers of Aion are supposed to be based on the gameplay content from the patch at launch. So you can look forward to the following content:
PvE content up to level 50
Rift and Fortress battles in PvP
4 base classes, which will evolve into further specializations as you level up
Compared to 2009, there is, however, an adjusted client and some balance adjustments, including fewer experience points required to reach the max level.
What about European servers? Aion Classic is currently only available in America, but there is no region lock, so you can play there too. The current version of Aion in Europe is operated by Gameforge. We have not yet received a response from the publisher regarding whether Classic servers will come to us.
Why is Aion Classic attracting so many people? One aspect often mentioned in connection with the Classic servers is the memories of the old times and the original feeling of the game. Some view the current version of Aion as “patched to death”.
You level up significantly faster than before, everything is somehow easier, and some old content has been removed from the game.
Moreover, many players criticize the current Aion for having strong pay-to-progress items, including:
XP boosters
Instance shortcuts
Boosters for more gold or loot
Equipment that can be directly sold in the shop
On the other hand, the shop of Aion Classic currently only offers cosmetic content and is also expected to refrain from boosters or pay-to-win in the future.
What do you think of Aion Classic? Will you take another look at the old MMORPG in its new guise?
This year, a new installment of the football simulation will be released with FIFA 22. However, many details have not been revealed yet. New leaks from June 23 show the new menus, reveal the download size of the beta, and provide some initial details about the gameplay.
What are these leaks? Many of the leaks come from Twitch streamer KingLangpard, who shares them on Twitter. The details about gameplay are particularly interesting:
There is supposed to be a new feature for player switching while defending. By pressing R3 on the controller, you can switch between the 3 closest players. The switch with R1 still works.
Calling in a second player in defense is said to have been slightly toned down. After 3-4 seconds, the pressing is said to stop.
Quickly switching sides and heading the ball is said to be very powerful, which could lead to a “new meta.”
In addition to this gameplay information, KingLangpard also shared an initial picture of the menu and information about Weekend League.

Where does this information come from? KingLangpard states that the information comes from the beta. However, this beta is currently not publicly accessible, and the statements cannot be verified.
The Twitter account PlayStation Game Size also shared the download size of the FIFA 22 beta today. It is supposed to be 39.067 GB (via Twitter). This also indicates that a hidden beta has started in the background.
Still, enjoy the information from KingLangpard with caution.
Leak about the Game Menu and Weekend League
What does the new menu look like? The picture from KingLangpard is the first one showing the menus of FIFA 22. It features the beta logo for FIFA 22 in the top left corner, as well as some placeholders.
What does KingLangpard say about the Weekend League? The information about Weekend League was already shared by the streamer at the end of April (via Twitter). It states that the qualification will be changed:
What is officially known about FIFA 22 so far? Very little. Classic modes like Ultimate Team or Career Mode will probably be included again. There are also rumors about an online career mode. Everything we know so far is summarized here: FIFA 22: Release, price, licenses – All previous information and assessments.
Really new information may only come out during EA Play Live. This will take place on July 22. The pre-show is scheduled to start at 7:00 PM our time, followed by the main show a bit later.

In contrast, Amouranth’s violations are part of the concept. She dances around Twitch’s rules and the rule-breaking is intentional and part of her success.
For Twitch, however, it is difficult to ban Amouranth because she knows how to play the game, and the rules are often a matter of interpretation:
“Hot Tub” streams take place in tubs or pools – and for such, a bikini is now considered “appropriate clothing.” Therefore, they cannot ban her.
In ASMR, sounds are made, and it is spoken quietly – under which one can certainly hide “licking the microphone” and quiet moaning.
Knows how to stretch the rules to the maximum: Amouranth.
Apparently, Amouranth was only banned because she focused her butt on the camera. However, the definition of “sexually explicit content” states:
Content or camera angles that focus on the chest, buttocks, or pelvic area, including poses that intentionally emphasize these body parts.
Twitch Guidelines
However, it is somewhat ironic when xQc points out that Twitch measures with a double standard. After all, xQc has recently fallen into gambling. That also upset some:

However, it is somewhat ironic when xQc points out that Twitch measures with a double standard. After all, xQc has recently fallen into gambling. That also upset some:
The biggest streamer on Twitch is Félix “xQc” Lengyel: He believes Twitch must permanently ban the largest female streamer on Twitch, Amouranth. She has done too much wrong. He himself lived in fear of a “perma-ban” after a single repeated offense, yet Amouranth gets away with much worse violations.
It was originally unclear how long the ban would last. Now we know: it was only 3 days.
Streamer xQc finds this way too short. He expected a permanent ban. According to xQc, Twitch is applying a double standard here. He lived in fear of a perma-ban while he had only violated the same rule twice. Amouranth, on the other hand, has broken this rule 5 times.
xQc lived in fear of a perma-ban for 2 violations of the “nudity rule”
This is what xQc is upset about this time: The streamer says: For 8 months, there was a threat of a permanent ban hanging over him.
Apparently, he meant a situation when he accidentally violated Twitch’s nudity rules. In May 2021, he showed a video on his channel in which a man was arrested by police for exhibitionism. The video showed genitals.
Because he had previously been banned for “nudity” on stream, he fears: With a second offense, he would be permanently banned by Twitch himself.
xQc says: He walked around for months while the “perma-ban” threat hung over him.
But Amouranth is banned five times in two months for the same offense, yet only receives a “three-day” ban. That can’t be right.
That makes “no fucking sense.” As a Twitch partner, he goes crazy when he sees this in comparison.
If you see it live, it’s a bit hard to follow him, but this is what xQc seems to mean:
The rule violation as a success model
This is what’s behind it: xQc exaggerates a bit with the numbers regarding Amouranth. But in fact, Twitch’s ban policy is difficult.
Because xQc was banned for seconds and not by his intention for anything naked being seen. He himself was shocked and quickly removed it.
However, it is somewhat ironic when xQc points out that Twitch measures with a double standard. After all, xQc has recently fallen into gambling. That also upset some:

MeinMMO presents the weapon charts of Call of Duty: Warzone in June 2021. Newcomers, classics, enduring favorites – we show you the weapons that are played the most in Warzone and which setups the players are using.
Since the start of Season 3 at the end of April, there has been a positive change in the weapon meta in Call of Duty: Warzone. Many weapons are considered strong and playable, and the differences between the firearms are not as noticeable anymore – personal preferences play a larger role. To give you an overview of what is currently played in the Battle Royale, we show you the 10 most popular weapons in Warzone based on data from the game. On page 2, we provide the matching setups.
Where do the data come from? The basis of the ranking comes from the Warzone weapon tool “WZ Ranked” (via wzranked.com). On the website, you will find the usage rates of the weapons with setups, and the current dataset considers weapon choices from June 17 to June 23, 2021. Due to a closed data interface from Call of Duty, only 2 – 6% of global player data is part of the dataset. However, WZ Ranked emphasizes that this data is still sufficient for a meaningful average.
The 10 most popular weapons in Warzone – June 2021
FARA 83 – Assault Rifle from Cold War
Kar 98k – DMR from CoD MW
MG 82 – LMG from Cold War
MAC-10 – Submachine Gun from Cold War
Krig 6 – Assault Rifle from Cold War
CR-56 AMAX – Assault Rifle from CoD MW
XM4 – Assault Rifle from Cold War
Kilo 141 – Assault Rifle from CoD MW
MP5 – Submachine Gun from Cold War
Grau 5.56 – Assault Rifle from CoD MW

Compared to our last weapon charts in May, there have been some changes. The FARA 83 was able to take over the first place. Moreover, 3 weapons fell out of the ranking and were replaced by strong competitors. The M4A1, FFAR 1, and LC10 are no longer in the top 10. The new LMG MG 82 is pushing itself directly into the top 3, and the close-combat beast MP5 from Cold War is once again in the mix. Also new is the XM4, which is popular due to its wide range of applications in close and long combat.
The MG 82 was OP at the start of the season and has recently been brought down to reality with a nerf. It remains to be seen whether the weapon can hold its place in the weapon meta of Warzone long-term or remains a one-hit wonder.

Marvel’s Avengers has not been a major success for the publisher, but curiously, the superhero MMO is currently appearing in the top 5 most played games via PlayStation Now. How can that be?
What is PlayStation Now all about? PlayStation Now is a subscription service from Sony that allows users to download selected games for free each month and in some cases even stream them directly without downloading. Additionally, the streaming service also works on PC, providing access to some titles that would otherwise be exclusive to PlayStation.
In June 2021, several top titles are included in the subscription, and the top 5 on PC is as follows:
Bloodborne
Horizon Zero Dawn
The Last of Us
Marvel’s Avengers
Detroit: Become Human
Why is Avengers among all the exclusives?
What’s so curious about this selection? Four of these games are ones that have only been released for PlayStation consoles (Bloodborne and The Last of Us) or have only received a port to PC after a long time (Horizon and Detroit). Therefore, it’s not surprising that PC players took the opportunity to excessively stream gems like Bloodborne or Horizon Zero Dawn in June.
However, one game stands out completely, as Marvel’s Avengers differs in several ways from the other four titles:
The game was never exclusive to PlayStation; it has always been a multi-platform title.
The game is actually a multiplayer title, while the other games all focus on single-player gameplay.
Avengers received rather poor ratings and was a disappointment for the publisher. While games like Bloodborne or The Last of Us impress with MetaCritic scores of 92 and 95 respectively, Marvel’s Avengers limps along with a score of 67.
Even on Steam, the reviews are only 66 percent positive, and an average of just about 560 players are playing the game simultaneously.
Why is Avengers still so popular on PlayStation Now? Under a tweet about the top 5 PS Now games on PC, several players are indeed wondering why the allegedly underperforming Avengers is so prominent.
The answer seems to lie in the reasons why Avengers became such a flop. When the game was initially released, many players and critics praised the great Marvel story, which did not rely on the already widely told MCU but rather told a brand new Marvel story.
This was partly due to the cool missions that slowly introduced players to the story and the characters, featuring the wonderfully nerdy protagonist Kamala Khan, a lovable heroine, who stood out wonderfully from the old superheroes.
Therefore, those who only played the story definitely had a lot of fun with Avengers. Only after the end of the campaign did the enjoyment of the game decline, as the endgame offered little more than repetitive missions on an assembly line and occasional story expansions like the one for Hawkeye.
The reviews on Steam confirm this, as the story is particularly praised while the endgame is harshly criticized:
Scorpionking1172: “I have only played the campaign so far and I really had fun. The voice acting, the story, and the gameplay are quite good in my opinion. I know, however, that this game receives a lot of hate from what I’ve heard about the endgame and multiplayer.”
ObiBenBinomi: “Admittedly, I have 53 hours clocked on this game. Initially, I had a lot of fun. The story is enjoyable, the dialogues are very reminiscent of the films, and eventually, the different appearance [of the heroes] along with the strange voices no longer bother me. Yes, I really had fun in the single-player campaign. I’m slowly getting to know the Avengers, the quotes are cool, and the rebuilding of the Helicarrier is nice. […]”
DonutBigMAc: “More good story and combat system, but not worth the full price …”
Time and again, it is heard that Avengers is a lot of fun, especially at the beginning of the story campaign, and that it should definitely be experienced. Only the rest of the game is exceedingly boring and not worth the money. Therefore, many players have likely taken the subscription at PS Now and streamed the game without much effort, enjoying the enjoyable campaign and spending a few hours in the multiplayer endgame.
Patch 9.1 will be unpleasant for some players of World of Warcraft. Because some of you will be almost “forced” to rebuild your legendary items.
In a week, the first major content update for World of Warcraft Shadowlands will finally begin. Patch 9.1 Chains of Domination brings a lot of new content, but also some unpleasant problems. Because it may be that you have to recreate your beloved Legendary – for a different equipment slot. The cause of this is the “Shards of Domination”.
What are the Shards of Domination? The Shards of Domination are very special gem sockets that drop from the bosses in the Sanctum of Domination. They cannot be used in normal sockets. Instead, socket slots are only available on equipment from the new raid.
Each character can install up to 5 of these shards into their armor, unlocking powerful effects. Here are a few of the different bonuses that will be available:
Your damage is increased by 2% as long as you have more than 50% of your maximum health points.
Your critical healing effects cause the target to absorb the next 228 damage points.
Dealing damage to a target increases the damage the target takes from you by 0.33%. This effect is stackable up to 4 times.
This situation ensures that you should wear as many socket slots and thus as many items from the raid as possible. If an important slot is already occupied by a legendary item, it makes sense to exchange the item and put the legendary effect on a new slot.
In the Sanctum of Domination, you will receive new “sockets” – bonuses you cannot miss.
Which equipment is affected? It all depends on your armor type. Depending on which armor class your character wears, different items may have a socket slot for the “Shards of Domination”. Basically, the following equipment from the Sanctum of Domination can have the coveted “socket slots”:
Helmets
Shoulders
Chest
Additionally, these slots come into play depending on your armor type:
Cloth: Bracers and Belts
Leather: Gloves and Boots
Mail: Belts and Boots
Plate: Bracers and Gloves
More about World of Warcraft and Patch 9.1 can be found here:
What does this mean? In simple terms, it means you should recreate your beloved Legendary to occupy a different slot that cannot be equipped with a Shard of Domination. Only then can you add the maximum of 5 Shards of Domination to your equipment while still maintaining the effect of your legendary item.
However, Blizzard seems to be aware of this issue. Therefore, the legendary items that currently share a slot with armor intended for shards will receive an additional option. Previously, you could only apply a legendary power to the head and shoulder – like with “Twins of the Sun Priestess” – but in Patch 9.1, there will be a third option. The effect can also be applied to a necklace.
This change applies to all legendary powers that would otherwise have a complete overlap with the slots for the Shards of Domination.
For many players, having to recreate your legendary item is certainly frustrating. However, it must also be mentioned that Soul Ash can be farmed much more easily in Patch 9.1 and there is no longer a weekly cap. Therefore, this change is likely to be bearable.
What do you think about this? Thoughtless and annoying? Or is this just part of the introduction of new systems?
In Call of Duty: Warzone there are even more advantages for PC users. Curiously, however, not because of the mouse and keyboard control, but because of the extremely good aim assist and a specific controller layout. The YouTuber JackFrags explains to you here why that is.
What exactly are the advantages? The YouTuber JackFrags plays on PC but uses an Xbox Elite Controller. Special advantages should be possible with this, from which PC players can benefit.
According to JackFrags, the additional bumpers on the back of the gamepad are particularly easy to reach.
These bumpers are used to jump or crouch. This way, you can very well shoot, run, and hop around at the same time, or duck.
This allows for a mobile playing style, and together with the strong aim assist, you can still hit very well. The aim assist on PC for gamepads works similarly to a magnet, which steadily guides the crosshair to the target.
According to JackFrags, you can take advantage of this when strafing around the opponent, keeping him well in your sights. This works even when the opponent is hopping around, as the aim assist works particularly effectively vertically.
It’s worth playing with a controller on PC as well
What is the feedback? According to JackFrags, this way of playing is very effective, but you have to get used to it if you were previously only starting with mouse and keyboard. However, in the comments, JackFrags’ method is praised by the community:
Troglodyte: “At first I thought this was a video of Jack cheating!”
XBX4LFE: “That’s why Nickmercs and the others play this way!”
802 Garage: “This explains some fights I recently lost. I miss left and right, but the other seems to always have me in sight. I knew there was something like this, but I forgot it again, and you rarely see it as clearly as here.”
Los: “These paddles [the bumpers on the back] help so much, it’s a difference like night and day!”
