The incredible winning streak of Anders Vejrgang is over. After 536 wins in the Weekend League of FIFA 21, the eSports player had to admit defeat. We will tell you how that could happen.
Who is Anders Vejrgang: The only 15-year-old Dane is a successful eSports player for the FIFA team of the Bundesliga club RB Leipzig. He became known because of his incredible winning streak in the FUT Champions Weekend League. But at some point, the streak had to end, and we will tell you how the young FIFA pro lost his first match.
How the FIFA wonder kid lost his first match
This is what happened: Anders Vejrgang suffered his first defeat in the fiercely contested Weekend League yesterday, on February 14, in his 27th match. After 536 unbeaten matches, he lost clearly 1:5 against the Dutchman damesheet with his team Black United.
This is how the match went:
34th minute – Goal for damesheet through a perfectly timed pass into space and a volley to the far corner
63rd minute – Goal for damesheet through a nice pass in the penalty area including a ball roll and good finish
76th minute – Goal for Anders Vejrgang through a shot in the penalty area
82nd minute – Goal for damesheet through a low shot to the near post
87th minute – Goal for damesheet after a counter-attack. Only the goalkeeper was an obstacle.
You can watch the complete match here from minute 38:

80,000 viewers watched live as Anders Vejrgang lost for the first time in the Weekend League.
Why did Anders Vejrgang lose? Although Anders Vejrgang had to face a significant defeat in the end, one cannot say that he made gross errors. His opponent was simply better in this FIFA match. He managed to control the Dane by playing along the sides until spaces opened up in the middle. The Dutchman consistently followed through and took advantage of the chances.
At halftime, Anders Vejrgang could only show 38% ball possession and no shots on goal
Anders Vejrgang could not convert the few opportunities he had and lacked pressure on his opponent. Towards the end, the Dane played very offensively, which is why such a high final score was reached.
How you can improve your offensive play to perhaps break the incredible record of Anders Vejrgang someday, we will tell you here.

The player Juan “Hungrybox” DeBiedma is a legend in Super Smash Bros. Melee and a Twitch streamer. He is known for his exuberant cheers after a victory. However, he went too far this time and cheered so hard over a win that he lost consciousness.
Who is he? The 27-year-old American Juan Manuel DeBiedmas is known as “HungryBox.” He has roots in Argentina.
Hungrybox is one of the best and most successful eSports players in the history of Super Smash Bros. Melee. He has been professionally playing games from Nintendo’s famous Brawler series since 2007 and is regarded as the best Jigglypuff player in the world. He was the Smash Summit Champion in 2017, 2018, and 2020, and has won DreamHack 5 times. He definitely has the skills.
In “Super Smash Bros.” games, video game heroes fight against each other. Pikachu is battling Mario and Sonic here. Successful players specialize in a character and master it to perfection.
Twitch streamer wins online tournament and cheers way too hard
When he won the tournament, he erupted in such cheers that he briefly lost consciousness and fell from his chair. After about 10 seconds, he murmured, “I’m fine.”

This is what the streamer says about the incident: Hungrybox later explained the incident in a video (via youtube). The brief fainting spell came after a 6-hour stream.
“I’m sweating. I’m tired. But I’m also totally focused. I decide that I want the prize more than anything else in the world. I start playing one of the best online melees that I’ve ever had.”
Hungrybox
Hungrybox is used to cheering loudly, but this time it was different. He says: It felt like there was a cloud in his head and he became dizzy. It was much stronger than when he usually gets excited. This led to him fainting for the first time in his life.
Can something like this end badly? What Hungrybox is describing is a pattern that keeps occurring: Gamers get so absorbed in a game that they forget everything around them.
In the past, we have frequently reported on MeinMMO that players have died after excessive gaming. The circumstances of the deaths are not always clear. But dehydration, exhaustion, and complete immersion in a game seem to play major roles:
In July 2020, the discussion around the player Puppeh (right) heated up. He was reportedly sexually exploited by a 24-year-old when he was 14.
The eSports scene of Super Smash Bros. is vibrant and mainly takes place in local tournaments. Like many other eSports titles, Super Smash Bros. was also caught up in the wave of “sexual harassment in gaming” in the summer of 2020:
Gambling is becoming increasingly popular on Twitch. Streamer Xposed has now shown how wrong it can go.
What it’s about: On Twitch, there is a category called “Slots,” where viewers watch streamers bet money in online casinos. Often, large amounts are wagered. How a gambling bet can go wrong was vividly demonstrated by streamer Cody “Xposed” Burnett.
Xposed used to stream mainly content related to shooters and is known for his outbursts. Now he demonstrated one of these meltdowns after losing a ton of money at an online casino.
Xposed has no idea about the lost money yet. (via Twitch)
“Only 2 mines and we are out”
What happened? Xposed was in an online casino that offers various mini-games (similar to slot machines in real casinos). He chose Mines, which is strongly reminiscent of Minesweeper – with the difference that you bet money.
If you hit a mine, the stake is gone. With each attempt, there is more money; 3 mines are on the game field. If you hit one, everything is lost.
Xposed thought: “3 mines won’t hurt anyone. Only 2 mines and we are out.” He bet his entire available balance of around $7300.
As can quickly happen in such situations, the attempt went wrong. The money is gone and Xposed completely lost it, which also took the life of a keyboard. Then he disappeared from the screen. His viewers reacted with a mix of horror and schadenfreude.
Streamer and YouTuber Knossi has also been criticized for his gambling streams. He has since announced that he will no longer do such streams. He reached this decision, he claims, because he has a role model function for young people.
Recently, Twitch streams featuring Pokémon card boosters have skyrocketed, with the hope of pulling rare and valuable cards.
Blade & Soul 2 starts in South Korea in May. 2 million players have registered for pre-registration, breaking a record.
What is Blade & Soul 2? The sequel to the MMORPG Blade & Soul, released in 2012 (2016 in our country), lets you step back into the role of martial arts fighters in the same Asian-inspired fantasy world. The heroes of old have now become legends, and you will find many new challenges and secrets in this world.
Part 2 aims to introduce some changes and innovations compared to its predecessor. This includes determining your combat style through weapons rather than classes. Exploring the world will also be more important, as you will unlock the story of the game zones.
The battles are intended to be action-packed yet tactical. You can switch your weapons during fights to adapt to new situations.

When will the game be released? In South Korea, Blade & Soul 2 launches in May. Pre-registration has already begun. The release is planned for mobile devices and through a special platform called Purple for PC. In our country, the MMORPG is set to launch in 2021. A specific date is not yet available.
What record has the game broken? In less than 18 hours after the start of the pre-registration phase for Blade & Soul 2, 2 million players in South Korea registered for the MMORPG.
In 2017, NCSoft announced that the pre-registrations for LineageM reached the 2 million mark within 18 hours (via NCSoft). This record has now been narrowly beaten by Blade & Soul 2.
Why is the MMORPG so popular in South Korea? A large e-sport scene has formed around Blade & Soul in South Korea. Tournaments and championships take place.
Blade & Soul 2 is being developed with a focus on e-sports. Therefore, the sequel could take the place of the first part and establish itself as a new e-sport contender in Korea.
However, players first need to familiarize themselves with the new mechanics. The earlier you start, the sooner you’ll be fit enough for tournaments.
Moreover, Blade & Soul 2 seems to promise a very exciting MMORPG that appeals to both PvE and PvP fans and looks great even on mobile devices thanks to Unreal Engine 4.
Fans are therefore very curious whether Part 2 can measure up to its predecessor, surpass it, and establish itself as a new e-sport game.
You can find Blade & Soul in the MeinMMO list of the 13 best free-to-play MMORPGs compared. Perhaps you will discover other games there that interest you.

In Pokémon GO the Valentine’s Day event has started and holds a big surprise for you. There is a new Shiny! Additionally, new quests and raid bosses are active.
How long does the event last? Valentine’s Day will be celebrated until February 18th. The event ends at 8:00 PM.
Celebration includes pink Pokémon, 6 new quests, and special raid bosses. We provide you with an overview here.
Shiny Mamolida, new quests and regional Pokémon
This new Shiny is available: At the start of the event, a new Shiny was introduced unexpectedly. The shiny form of Mamolida has been introduced, which you can now catch. Here’s an image of the Shiny:
These are the new quests: In total, there are 6 new field research tasks that you can complete during the event. This includes:
Catch 6 Fairy-type Pokémon
Reward: 2 Razz Berries or 2 Nanab Berries
Send 3 gifts to friends
Reward: Encounter with a Volbeat or Illumise (both can be Shiny)
Use 5 berries while catching Pokémon
Reward: Encounter with a Surskit (can be Shiny)
Catch 20 Luvdisc
Reward: Encounter with a Mamolida (can be Shiny)
Win 2 raids
Reward: Encounter with a Mamolida (can be Shiny)
Land 5 great curveball throws in a row
Reward: Encounter with a Pandir with hearts (can be Shiny)
Particularly interesting are the quests related to Mamolida. Remember that you can also collect quests and complete them later. For example, you can hold 3 “Win 2 Raids” quests and then complete a total of only 2 raids to receive the reward three times.
The task related to Volbeat and Illumise is also interesting. Illumise is a regional Pokémon, which cannot be found in Germany outside of events. So, if you’re also looking for the Shiny of Illumise in Pokémon GO, you should take the quest.
Which spawns are worth it? Some interesting spawns appear in the wild. Here you can also find Illumise, which you should secure. Additionally, Chanse and Luvdisc, two Pokémon in the wild, which are quite rare outside of events, will appear.
These are the new bosses: Coinciding with the event, there is also a lot of rotation among the raids. We provide you with the new bosses here. The Pokémon marked with a star also appear in their shiny form:
Which bosses are worth it? Here, Mamolida is also interesting. This Pokémon is otherwise primarily obtained through quests. During the Valentine’s Day event in Pokémon GO, you can also take your chance for a Shiny.
Otherwise, there is Psiau, a Pokémon that can only be obtained through raids. If you still lack the Pokédex entry, you should take your chance.
This is how Valentine’s Day has gone in Pokémon GO so far: This day has been celebrated in Pokémon GO since 2017 and repeatedly puts pink Pokémon in the spotlight. For example, Chanse appeared everywhere in 2017.
In 2018, Luvdisc was introduced. It came directly with the shiny form in the game.
Generally, the event around Valentine’s Day is always a strong event and popular among trainers because several Pokémon appear there that are otherwise quite rare. The best example is Chanse.
February is still full of events
What’s next? After the Valentine’s Day event, it goes into the hot phase around the Kanto Tour, which takes place next weekend. You can buy a ticket for 12 euros.
Additionally, there will still be raid and spotlight hours this month. A Kanto event has also been announced, where you can catch the Pokémon that you might not have been able to snag during the Kanto Tour.
The streamer Nicholas “Nickmercs” Kolcheff is a big name on Twitch with Call of Duty: Warzone. But now he got into trouble. He accepted a challenge from the boss of G2 Esports, the head of the best European team in League of Legends. And if the former LoL pro can do one thing, it’s trash talking. Nickmercs had quite a bit to hear. In the end, however, he remained the winner.
One of their players, Sean “Coop” Cooper, was in a trio with Nickmercs in Fortnite. They played in the Fortnite Championship Series and finished in 39th place in NA East.
G2 Esports posted a picture montage on Twitter:
This is how “our guy”, G2 Coop, plays Fortnite: It shows a picture of Coop with a “Victory Royale”, he won the round
This is how Nickmercs plays Fortnite: It shows a picture of Nickmercs dead on the ground waiting for the revival
“I have more viewers than your whole org combined”
This is how Nickmercs reacted to the joke: He apparently found it not funny at all. Nickmercs had played Fortnite competitively again after a long time and had to suffer ridicule right away.
The streamer was reportedly furious that he was being disrespected regarding his gaming honor and that such a joke was liked by 12,000 people. He replied:
“I get more viewers than your whole e-sports organization combined. Don’t make me cringe.”

Nickmercs’ response then received significantly more likes than the original tweet from G2 Esports.
In fact, the matter could have ended here: A Twitch streamer reacts sharply and overly serious to a tweet that hurts his pride. But G2 Esports has a boss who is at least as proud as Nickmercs.
LoL boss gets enraged on Twitter
This was the reckoning: Now the hot-headed CEO of G2 Esports got involved: Carlos “Ocelote” Rodriguez. He was once a LoL pro himself and if he can do one thing, it’s trash talking.
He was the first to write, “Lmaooo – fragile Frederick – easy up you degenerate”: That is, lighten up, you softy.
Then the G2 boss attacked Nickmercs’ clan, FaZe: To join and sign an 80/20 contract there, you must have a fragile ego.
With this, Ocelote referred to the alleged binding contracts FaZe gives to its players. In the case of Twitch streamer Turner “Tfue” Tyler, it came out that the organization allegedly secured up to 80% of certain incomes from the streamer.
Ocelote: A CEO who can get enraged.
The Spanish-speaking Twitch star Ibai called Nickmercs to order: “Two months ago you didn’t say that, calm down.”
To which Ocelote pointed at Ibai and shouted: “The guy has four times as many viewers as you when he watches marble races.”
Ocelote named several top e-sports athletes who are simultaneously successful on Twitch: Like the LoL pros Rekkles or Jankos, both play for G2 Esports’ LoL team.
The message was clear: Your viewer numbers on Twitch are really nothing that you can come to me with.
The 30-year-old Nickmercs is an American from Detroit, Michigan. He was previously a professional player in Halo and still plays with a controller. He had his big breakthrough on Twitch with Call of Duty: Warzone in 2020. When he streams, about 38,000 viewers watch him on average. He is currently number 5 on Twitch in hours watched in the last 365 days.
Conversation and €500 donation end dispute on Twitch
This is how it ended: After Ocelote had really got himself riled up, he probably realized he had gone too far.
He then wrote simply, “I spoke with Nickmercs. We are okay again,” and that was the end of the short but heated dispute.

The conflict was apparently resolved with a gift. G2 Esports donated 100 subs to Nickmercs on Twitch and the trouble was over. The 100 subs on Twitch cost about €500.
With the 100 subs, Nickmercs can feel like the winner of the conflict. However, he probably hardly needs the money; after all, he is among the top earners in gaming:
The community of the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) is discussing whether the dungeons in the game are too easy. Let’s take a closer look.
How do Dungeons work in ESO? Dungeons are available to you in two difficulty levels: Normal and Veteran. Up to level 30, you complete the normal dungeons as part of the story. Starting from level 45, you can access the harder dungeons of the ESO DLCs. And from level 50, you can tackle the veteran versions. These are the same dungeons as before, but significantly more challenging.
In general, the gameplay in ESO works similarly to other MMORPGs: You follow the story, which leads you to various dungeons. These are balanced in such a way that you can essentially complete them “in flow”. Later, you can focus on the special DLC dungeons or face a greater challenge in Veteran mode. There are also hardmodes for the bosses, which further increase the difficulty.
Dungeons in ESO only pose a challenge in Veteran mode.
That’s why ESO dungeons are quite easy at the beginning
Are dungeons too easy? In normal mode, the dungeons you complete as part of the story do not pose significant problems. This doesn’t mean that all of them are a walk in the park. There are differences here too. For example, the Mushroom Cave I in Stonefalls is a very easy dungeon and designed specifically for beginners. The Mushroom Cave II, on the other hand, which you will visit later, is much more challenging.
However, the consensus in the community is that the dungeons in normal mode are too easy. But there is a reason for this. The dungeons are designed so that during the first run, when players experience the story, they do not lead to frustration. Additionally, the normal mode is intended as a form of training.
This means: If you are playing ESO for the first time, most normal dungeons will not present you with significant challenges. This creates a good flow of gameplay, allowing you to experience the story at a comfortable pace.
If you later want to tackle the veteran dungeons, they will definitely get you sweating. To be well-prepared, you can practice in the normal version of the respective dungeon beforehand.
What does the community think? The community is discussing this topic. A question arose on reddit: “Do dungeons ever become challenging?”
Player supershimadabro reveals that his group masters the dungeons without a tank and many players attempt them solo as well.
Here are some responses that show that while he is correct, there are reasons for this:
jtzako writes on reddit: “In normal mode, most dungeons are not hard. They are basically training dungeons. When you do DLC dungeons or veteran dungeons, they become harder.”
gobio poses an interesting question (via reddit): “My counter question is, should dungeons (during the leveling phase) even be challenging? You breeze through solo quests with relative ease, even without needing to engage with anyone. At a certain point, you are incentivized to complete dungeons with others. Should that really be harder compared to the solo content?”
palemoth explains (via reddit): “Dungeons on normal difficulty are all pretty easy and designed so that casual players can have some fun, I assume. There are some DLC dungeons that are hard even on Normal due to the mechanics – for example, I feel that the Moon Hunter Javelin is hell on Earth. Only in vet dungeons does the fun really begin.”
In the first run, many dungeons can be completed without frustration.
How hard should it be?
Fundamentally, this discussion raises an intriguing question: How difficult should dungeons be? Here, opinions often differ. A good example is the so-called Soulsborne games like Dark Souls or Bloodborne. These titles are designed to present players with significant challenges. This can certainly lead to frustration when the hero dies at the end of a section and has to redo everything.
This gameplay principle and the high difficulty level are not to everyone’s taste. There are even requests for Soulsborne games to receive an easy mode. Gamers who love such challenges oppose this.
It is similar with MMORPGs. Some find dungeons too easy, others too hard. Finding a middle ground is not easy. If developers make the dungeons too tough, they alienate part of the player base. If they make them too easy, then veterans feel unchallenged.
Therefore, the path that ESO takes is quite clever. Initially, the dungeons are relatively easy to master. The flow of gameplay is not hindered by frustration because players don’t get stuck in a dungeon and can’t progress.
Later on, it becomes possible to face the greater challenges of the DLC dungeons and the veteran mode.
So we can say: Yes, the dungeons in ESO are – at the beginning – easy, but that’s a good thing.
After just 3 days, Dead by Daylight discards the interface that had been worked on for many weeks. This causes joy – but also mockery.
No matter how you turn it, the latest patch of Dead by Daylight has ruined more than any other update before. Not only are there numerous bugs and gameplay issues, but the new interface also receives a lot of criticism. Now the developers have quickly backtracked and are working on a better version that is supposed to go live in just a few days. On one hand, this is good – on the other hand, it leads to even more criticism.
What is the problem? The new interface in Dead by Daylight has primarily three issues that the community keeps pointing out. These are:
The interface is overloaded. Too many, too large icons cover too much of the screen, making it hard to see enough of the game environment, which greatly affects gameplay as both killer and survivor.
The interface elements are far apart. Instead of finding all information in one place, all info is spread across the screen. The generators to be repaired are at the top, the status of the survivors is on the left, and the currently earned points are on the right. One has to constantly scan across the screen.
The individual elements don’t match each other visually. Dead by Daylight actually has a “chalk” look. However, a colored image of the character is used for the character display images. This does not fit well.
What will change? On Twitter, a “Work in Progress” picture of the revision was shown after just a few hours. This gives fans a bit of hope, as a number of adjustments have already been made there. These are:
The status display of the survivors is further down.
The number of available hook actions is further down.
Displays for generators, gates, and trapdoor have moved from the top to the bottom.
There is no longer any text for generators, gates, and trapdoor.
Skill checks now have their own interface scaling.
The revised interface – an initial idea from the developers.
This is still a “Work in Progress” image, but some of the biggest points of criticism are already being addressed.
Mockery and scorn despite the right decision: Although many players welcome the changes, there is still a lot of criticism and mockery for the developers. This is mainly because it was said beforehand that the interface would not be changed significantly since “months of work” had gone into it and that a lot of thought had been put into it. The fact that these weeks of work can now be heavily changed after just 3 days causes many players to doubt how much work was really done.
Corresponding compilations of the “biggest DbD fails” are making the rounds, mocking what the developers supposedly consider “months of work”:
Poor patch reputation remains: Even though Dead by Daylight has become more popular and successful in recent years, the patch policy has changed little. After every major update, there are problems and bugs that make the game nearly unplayable in the first few days. This leads to a major meme wave in the subreddit and the official forum every approximately 6 weeks.
For years, the voices have grown louder that the developer behind Dead by Daylight, Behaviour, should take more time for patches or build an update just for optimizations. However, so far there is no sign of this, and the developers stick to their current strategy.
Player numbers stable despite patch: All the negativity and criticism doesn’t seem to have harmed Dead by Daylight – at least currently. A look at the current player numbers on Steam Charts shows a slight upward trend in the last few days, which is why Dead by Daylight is also today (as of 1:30 PM) ranked 21st among the most played games on Steam.
A slight upward trend in player numbers. Image source: Steamcharts
However, many reviews have been negative in the last few days. Especially right after the patch’s release, there were many negative reviews and only a few positive ones. Even though the overall rating is still at “Very Positive” at 82%, the recently submitted ratings are “Mixed” at only 65%.
How do you like the change to the interface? Is it good now? Or just a step in the right direction?

A glitch has caused the Sykov pistol to appear in Call of Duty: Warzone and it has been the talk of the town ever since. However, a Warzone expert hopes that the gun doesn’t make it into the game in its current form. MeinMMO shows you why the weapon is OP.
What kind of weapon is this? The Sykov corresponds to the Russian Makarov pistol, which was developed shortly after World War II in the Soviet Union. It is still in use and production today, but is gradually being replaced by a newer handgun in the Russian military. The Makarov is considered very reliable, but somewhat inaccurate (via Wikipedia).
However, it wouldn’t be good for Warzone if the Sykov were to be fully integrated, as analyzed by Warzone expert and YouTuber “JGOD”. In a video, he demonstrates that it would be completely OP and would change melee combat in Battle Royale. We embed JGOD’s English video here for you:

Sykov could theoretically eliminate opponents in 100 milliseconds
Why would it be OP in Warzone? The Sykov comes with three strong attachments that give the gun insane firepower in close combat of Battle Royale:
A barrel for fully automatic fire
Drum magazines with 80 rounds
Akimbo attachment to carry two weapons
Even the fully automatic barrel would let the weapon surpass the competition. But with 80 rounds without pause and the possibility of using it in Akimbo style, it makes the competition look old:
Theoretical TTK comparison of pistols from CoD MW in Warzone. Source: YouTube
The time-to-kill (TTK) of all pistols from Modern Warfare is over 900 milliseconds for torso shots and without Akimbo. 500 milliseconds is considered a really strong value in Warzone, and pistols are usually more of a second or third choice.
With the fully automatic barrel and the outstanding fire rate of 897 rounds/minute, the Sykov already achieves 334 milliseconds here and would be stronger than the best submachine guns at close range. The MP5 from Cold War achieves 492 milliseconds here.
But it goes even further – with the Akimbo perk, you could equip two Sykov pistols and halve the TTK. Theoretically, it would then be unbelievable 167 milliseconds for torso shots at the shortest ranges. That is faster than the deadly double shot of the R9-0 shotgun with Dragon’s Breath, which allows you a TTK of 200 milliseconds up to almost 7.5 meters.
If you follow this thought experiment to the end and also look at headshot damage, it gets completely crazy. If the Sykov hits 4 headshots in Warzone, in fully automatic mode, the enemy is down after 201 milliseconds. With Akimbo, this value could drop to 100 milliseconds. Landing four headshot Akimbo rounds in a row is quite unlikely, but that value would still be in the game.
Release currently not foreseeable – But you can already test it
Is the Sykov coming to Warzone? Currently, no definite statement can be made regarding that. The weapon has been in the game for a while now, but has not yet made it to the Battle Royale. It may remain that way.
Although players found a blueprint for the gun in Warzone, hinting at a possible premium version of the Sykov, there is currently no evidence that this pistol or other new weapons from CoD MW will come into Warzone.
Currently, however, it is more likely that other weapons will be introduced with the start of Season 2. A dataminer has sifted through the new files after a big Warzone update and was able to discover a total of four weapons that could come into the game with the next season.

The survival game Valheim is currently climbing to the top of Steam. Although the game is relatively small and comes with somewhat outdated graphics, the FPS can suffer at high graphic settings. However, one user has found a trick to boost them.
What is this trick? The reddit user RustyB3ans has presented a series of small adjustments in his thread on reddit. With these, it is possible to squeeze some FPS out of the new Steam hit Valheim.
Navigate to your Steam folder for Valheim, which should look something like this: C:[…]SteamsteamappscommonValheimvalheim_Data
Open the file boot or boot.config with a text editor
Add the line “gfx-enable-gfx-jobs=1” at the top
Add the line “gfx-enable-native-gfx-jobs=1” directly underneath
Save and close the file
Select Valheim in your Steam library and open “Properties”
Enter the following value under startup options: “-window-mode exclusive” and close the window
Start Valheim
Open the Task Manager (Ctrl + Alt + Escape) and look for “valheim.exe” in the Details tab
Right-click on it and set the priority to “High”
You need to repeat the step with the Task Manager every time you start the game. You should now see a noticeably smoother game.
How much does the performance improve? In our test, we achieved about 10-15 FPS on a 1440p screen. Other games report performance increases of up to 30 FPS or even more. It depends on your system and the settings how high the increase is.
In the top left, you can see my FPS at 56 before the trick in my base.
Here are the FPS after the trick, rising to 71, although I’m not using optimized settings.
Tiny game eats up a lot of performance
Why does Valheim require so much performance? On reddit, you often come across players who have performance issues. Although Valheim is just a relatively small game with only one gigabyte of storage, it can consume a lot of performance with the right graphic settings.
Additionally, in Valheim, you can build freely and terraform the world with pickaxes and gardening tools. Items and trees are subject to certain, partly deadly physics. This physics and the buildings also require performance.
What does Valheim offer? In the vast world, there are currently nine biomes, though the Mistlands, Ashlands, and the Deep North are not yet complete and are still being developed. Each of these biomes has its own unique features and dangers.
A significant part of Valheim involves traveling through these biomes, exploring, and collecting new materials. This mainly serves to improve oneself and defeat the various bosses of the game. In our guide, you will learn how to find and defeat each of these bosses.
Additionally, one of the main features is creating your own base, where you constantly need to defend against NPCs that attack you. Ultimately, you should prove yourself in Valheim as a powerful warrior worthy of serving the Norse gods. In the future, there will be more content, as promised by the developers.
Due to the possibilities, there are also many mistakes you can make. MeinMMO author Florian Franck presents 9 things he did wrong in Valheim – and that you should not replicate.

In Destiny 2, Season 13 has now brought a stronger reimagining of the notorious Redrix. However, to get the “Precision Weapon 2.0”, you’ll have to sweat it out in the Trials.
What’s new in the game: On the first weekend of Season 13 of Destiny 2, Guardians were amazed when they earned the new Trials weapon “The Messenger”. The pulse rifle can come with the perk Desperado.
Desperado effectively doubles the fire rate, catapulting the TTK of the Messenger into the Olympus. The perk originally came from a very rare Precision Weapon, and the entire category of precision weapons was actually banished from Destiny 2. But the Messenger even surpasses its Redrix predecessors.
The Messenger with Desperado
What was special about precision weapons? For a while, Destiny 2 brought precision weapons into the game every season. These were legendary guns that came with fixed perks and waited at the end of a – usually challenging – quest.
Each precision weapon had a tailored perk that was usually ridiculously powerful.
The notorious Recluse received massive bonus damage regardless of which weapon you got a kill with.
Luna’s Howl and the sister weapon Not Forgotten rewarded precision hits with insane damage – leading to near season-after-season nerfs until the weapons themselves initiated a retaliatory campaign against the sandbox.
In principle, these legendary weapons were more powerful than some exotics. Bungie subsequently banished the overly strong guns and introduced quest weapons instead. The quests are easier, and the perks are more godrolls for everyone rather than game-breaking. In Season 13, you chase the quest weapon Plunderer’s Salvo:
The Messenger is the Redrix, but better, if you are lucky
What’s new now: Desperado is no longer guaranteed on the weapon. You’ll have to have some serious loot luck with every drop of the Messenger. Additionally, the perk was also made more accessible.
Previously, Desperado only activated when reloading after a kill in combination with Outlaw.
Now, Outlaw is no longer needed; reloading after a precise kill is enough.
This expands the loot pool, and options like Quickdraw or Killswitch provide alternatives. You can still roll Outlaw, though.
The Messenger offers a larger magazine and a better, more open sight compared to both Redrix versions. The stats are otherwise very similar. If you sweat through the Trials and get lucky, you’ll receive a “Redrix 2.0” with better perks and a few other improvements. By the way, in PvE, damage does drop somewhat when Desperado is active, but not in PvP.
Bungie stated back then that only 8,750 Guardians could earn the Redrix Claymore before it became more accessible as the Redrix Broadsword
What could this mean for the future of Destiny 2?
Bungie has already mentioned that the rare and powerful perks of raid weapons might eventually become available on non-raid weapons too (via Polygon.com). Especially Reconstruction from the Deep Stone Crypt is considered one of the best perks in the game.
If perks from previous precision weapons were also added gradually to the loot pool, there would be a chance for enormously powerful toys that Guardians would surely love to farm. This could potentially make the hated weapon retirement a bit more palatable.
The Destiny expert Aztecross sees the situation both positively and negatively. According to him, the perks of precision weapons can and should make a return.

He would find it interesting if the perks could roll on other archetypes. So if Desperado, for example, came on a lightweight pulse or even on entirely different weapons – an automatic rifle that has a fire rate of over 1,000, for example?
On the other hand, he never wants to see perks like those from Succession, which guaranteed ammunition back on misses, ever again. The perk from the Summit should remain permanently banished as the “rocket launcher in pocket size” (with special ammo) was simply too strong and completely ruined the balance.
Did you expect the quasi-return of the precision weapon Redrix in Season 13? Do you already own “The Messenger” with Desperado and are dominating, or should these powerful perks remain buried? Discuss in the comments.
Players are eagerly waiting for the announcement and release of GTA 6. Recent rumors say that Rockstar Games wants to release 3 games as “remakes” first. And that soon.
What are the rumors? On Reddit and in the GTA forums, everything is currently revolving around nostalgia. While there is still no sign of an announcement for a new installment of the series, GTA 6, insiders already want to know more about Rockstar Games and publisher Take Two’s plans.
Allegedly, 3 remakes are planned
They revolve around the titles GTA III, GTA Vice City, GTA San Andreas
They should be available to purchase in less than 3 months
We will show you where the rumors come from and what lies behind them.
The Hints about Remakes of Vice City, San Andreas, and GTA 3
This is how it started: In the GTA Online forum, there is a sub-section “Speculation about the next DLC” (via GTA Forums). There, one of the team members posted a message with the simple content “Soon.”.
This was followed by an exciting exchange with a user and the team member.
User: You’re trying to post in the wrong forum. On the other hand, I appreciate if you tried posting in the right one, it would become very obvious what it is that you’re leaking. Not that there’s anything wrong with being open about it? Out of curiosity, what do you think about it? Of course, without telling everyone what it is, if you don’t want to. Personally, I think it’s pretty cool, and I never really expected them to do that. So I’m definitely looking forward to it.
Team Member: Oh, I know very well which forum I should be in, and I know you know that if I were to post in those forums, everyone would start to know what we know, and I prefer that it’s only us who knows, you understand? But all of us who “know” treat this differently, so if you want to post in those forums, I won’t stop you. But yes, I think it’s freaking awesome and I can’t wait. I’ve wanted this for many years, and I’m glad it’s happening sooner rather than later.
As Reddit user ivanxtrem28 writes, it took only a few minutes before the thread was subsequently tagged with “III”, “VC”, and “SA”. So the labels for GTA 3, GTA Vice City, and GTA San Andreas.
What other information is there? The team member responded to another user in cryptic messages.
“Yes, I should get a trailer soon. The truck should have a lot of power with this engine. No problem with towing/transporting.”
Players interpret this as referring to the graphics engine, which is also used in an Enhanced Edition of GTA 5.
When a user asked him when he would buy the truck, he said “in less than 90 days”. This apparently refers to the announcement period for these special versions.
Also, the insider Tez2, who has often provided the first information about Rockstar titles before official announcements in the past, is speaking out in the forum. A user asks: So what was it that hyped the moderators but they didn’t say what it was about?
Tez2 replies, “A bit of nostalgic stuff.”
And there is something for fans of hidden messages as well. An admin from the GTA forum posted a picture on Twitter with “fan-made Shark Cards”. The Shark Cards are the cards you can use to buy in-game currency in GTA Online for Euros.

Often also in connection with the next part of the GTA series, which would make the spelling “GTA VI” a direct template for GTA VI(CE). Even in the casino of GTA Online, traces of the highly anticipated setting can be found:
To the right: “VICE” as part of the service – the 510 on the left might indicate a release/announcement on May 10. That would fit with the statement “Less than 90 days”.
But still, these are just rumors and none of this is officially set in stone. It’s clear that the popular GTA Vice City has many fans with its setting. You steered through a fictional setting that resembled Miami closely. Beaches, drinks, convertibles, drugs, and shootouts. The GTA formula with radio classics from the ’80s and ’90s was simply fun. But as long as it’s not officially announced, you should enjoy the information with a dose of skepticism.
What about remakes from Take Two? Take Two has already shown with the remake of Mafia that they seem to enjoy such stories. And when they tackle something like this, it will also result in a good game. The PC version of Mafia Definitive Edition has a score of 79 points on Metacritic (via Metacritic) and clearly shows that the game is well received. And also the review from GameStar shows how much potential a remake from Take-Two has (via YouTube).
What do you think of this rumor? Would you be happy about remakes of these special GTA titles, or is that not for you and would you rather hold something completely new like a GTA 6?
What is the Team of the Week? EA Sports selects 23 players each week for the Team of the Week who have shown great performances in real football. These players are rewarded with enhanced Inform cards, which can be found in packs for one week.
What are TOTW Predictions? Every week, the FUT community tries to guess which players might make it into the TOTW. This involves closely examining player performances and making predictions.
However, it is important to note that the predictions are not guaranteed and may differ significantly from the actual TOTW.
They provide a good overview and can also be very useful for earning some coins in FUT 21. You can find out how that works here:
On the PTR, the items from Ve’nari in World of Warcraft have new restrictions. Is this a good or a bad sign?
The PTR for Patch 9.0.5 is active in World of Warcraft and some upcoming changes can already be tested. The biggest new feature is probably the introduction of Valor Points for “Mythic+” gear. However, there are also a few minor adjustments that have previously flown under the radar. One of those is the change to the items at Ve’nari.
What will be changed? Two items at the broker Ve’nari in the Maw are getting a small addition.
The “Fragment of the Unbound Reality” can now only grant media up to an item level of 226.
The “Apparatus for Spatial Realignment” can only add sockets to items obtained during Season 1 of Shadowlands.
The offer at Ve’nari is changing soon.
What does this mean? Presumably, this means that Ve’nari will no longer serve as a source for media and sockets in Patch 9.1. However, it is guaranteed that it is not worth hoarding these items now to use them in a later patch – because that simply won’t work.
However, it is quite possible that Blizzard will introduce new items that replace this function. Whether they will end up in a new area, with a new vendor, or still at Ve’nari is not yet clear. That will likely be shown only by the PTR of Patch 9.1, which will certainly be presented at BlizzConline this coming Friday.
Therefore, this change at Ve’nari should also be seen as an opportunity for Blizzard to choose a different method for obtaining these upgrades for upcoming content.
Farming at Ve’nari is unpopular: Currently, Ve’nari and her items are rather unpopular among players. This is mainly due to the fact that many players do not enjoy the gameplay in the Maw. The weekly and daily quests are quite monotonous, movement in the Maw is exhausting, and the mindless farming of Stygia is only liked by a few. Many players avoid the Maw since they became revered with Ve’nari and only complete the weekly quests, if at all.
For players at a Mythic raid level, however, a visit to the Maw remains mandatory. Otherwise, they cannot afford the additional sockets.
Do you think it’s good that Ve’nari’s items are limited to Season 1? Or do you feel that they have been significantly devalued?

In Destiny 2 there is now a crazy ornament for a sniper, allowing you to give the weapon exotic a sword look in the style of Final Fantasy.
Whether gestures in the style of Dragon Ball Z or a mini sparrow that almost looks like a Bobby car for guardians – Destiny 2 has introduced various crazy gimmicks into gameplay, entertaining fans along the way. Since the beginning of season 13, this action MMO has gained one more of those.
Since swords have been really trendy in Destiny lately, Bungie has now given an ornament of the popular sniper Izanagi’s Burden a really trippy look, allowing you to (visually) transform it into a gigantic sword.
The exotic sniper Izanagi’s Burden
Izanagi’s Burden (almost) becomes the Buster Sword
What are ornaments anyway? Ornaments are basically skins, or alternative models for weapons and armor pieces in Destiny 2. They are purely cosmetic, meaning they do not change the functionality of the actual item, but only its appearance.
This is what the ornament is about: The new ornament for Izanagi’s Burden is called Worldshaper and is available in the Eververse for 700 silver (real money currency, around €7). This gives Izanagi’s Burden a monstrous sword blade instead of its previously subtle barrel.
Izanagi’s Burden with the Worldshaper ornament
Despite the visual transformation, the weapon is still a fully functional sniper.
What makes it so special? The exotic sniper rifle already features a sword design in its original form and could easily be mistaken for a sword when viewed from a distance and carried on the back. However, with the new ornament, it looks like a real blade monstrosity. And not just any – pretty much everyone who has a heart for Final Fantasy will quickly recognize what served as inspiration.
The new ornament is noticeably inspired by the gigantic swords of the Final Fantasy series and bears striking similarities to Cloud’s Buster Sword.
Cloud with the Buster Sword
The tip of the blade is designed differently, but the dimensions and appearance with the wrapped bands on the shoulder support (or sword grip) still recall the unmistakable sword style. The chain is also likely a reference to Cloud’s sword, which many fans like to wear as a pendant.
What do you think about it? What do you think of such crazy gimmicks? Do you find it cool and would you spend real money on this or a similar homage? Or can you not appreciate such visual extremes in cosmetics? Let us and other readers of MeinMMO know in the comments.

Scalpers have snatched thousands of consoles from players. In an interview, one of them criticizes the negative portrayal by the press.
What are scalpers? These are people who use bots to buy products before others have the chance. They are usually sold at a higher price to those who missed out, generating a juicy profit. In the case of the PS5, this affected thousands of consoles:
Now, one of these scalpers, “Jordan,” has spoken to Forbes. He feels misrepresented by the press and sees himself as a regular businessman trying to help others.
Who exactly is he? According to Forbes, Jordan is one of the co-founders of “The Lab,” a group that shows others how to become scalpers themselves. Jordan claims to have bought 25 PS5 consoles using bots and resold them at a high price: for 700 pounds instead of 450.
The scalpers celebrated their successes. Source: Business Insider
Bad press “unjustified”
What does he say about the topic? Jordan tells Forbes that he believes scalpers are portrayed too negatively by the press. He sees himself more as a regular businessman:
It seems there is a LOT of bad press about this incredibly valuable industry, and I don’t think it’s justified. We are just acting as middlemen for items in limited supply.
Jordan compares scalping to the supermarket chain Tesco, which buys large quantities of milk cheaply from farmers and then sells them at a high price.
No one would complain there, while scalpers are facing death threats from angry gamers, according to Jordan.
What this comparison does not take into account is the fact that scalpers bypass security mechanisms to gain access to the goods earlier. Jordan’s business partner, Regan, provided insights into the methods used. 3D Secure is mentioned, which is mandatory for merchants in the UK offering credit card payments.
Some bots can even bypass web browsers and have direct access to the retailers’ servers to get direct access to stock before it is even offered. This completely undermines fair competition, as “normal customers” cannot compete with these methods.
All out of charity?
How exactly do they help others? Jordan and Regan claim they help people in financial distress due to the Corona pandemic:
“I’m mostly just trying to help others now, that’s all that really matters to me. The whole group came together during the first lockdown in the UK and it makes me very happy that I can help people earn some extra money for themselves.”
Allegedly, they also make charitable donations. However, Regan did not provide any specific details to Forbes about whom or what is being donated to.
According to Regan, merchants are partly responsible for normal customers having little chance against bot users. Many update their offers at inconvenient times of the day, which benefits scalpers who are just waiting to pounce, while average customers look at the store later.
The extensive (English-language) interview can be read on Forbes.com.
What do you think about this? Can you understand the scalpers’ perspective? Or do you just see it as price gouging?

Are you having trouble overwhelming your opponents with shots in FIFA 21? Then here are some tips on how to attack better.
A strong offense is crucial for winning in FIFA 21. After all, you can only win if you score goals. An important point is to be as unpredictable as possible, so opponents can’t anticipate your moves.
That’s why we’ve outlined some tips that you can integrate into your offense to create more scoring opportunities.
Canceling Shots
This feature is new in FIFA 21. No, it’s not about faking shots – although that is also a useful trick. It’s about interrupting the shot animation.
A direct shot can help – but your opponent might expect that
To do this, you have to press both triggers (L2/R2 or LT/RT) immediately after performing a shot. The shot you just charged will not happen – and you can keep running. This can confuse your opponent and even AI-controlled defenders trying to block your shots.
You can cancel nearly everything. It also works with passes, crosses, or skill moves. It takes a bit of practice, but the effects can be very strong.
Send your players actively into the offense
Here’s how the offensive run works: When you stand in front of the opponent’s penalty area, the AI won’t always run effectively into the offense on its own. You can change that: As the ball-carrying player, use L1/LB to signal to the next player to execute an offensive run towards the opponent’s goal.
Fast players like Mbappé can easily outrun opponents
You can also briefly use the right stick after pressing L1/LB to tell the sent player exactly which direction to run. This feature is called “Creative Run” and is new in FIFA 21. It takes a bit of practice with timing, but this way you can trick your opponent with surprising runs.
Here’s how the cross works: Scoring goals with crosses and headers is not necessarily easy. There is often still a defender between your attacker and the opponent’s goal preventing the shot.
A crossing variant that works well is a cross with decent pressure behind it. When you combine the cross button (Square/X) with R1/RB, your player will execute a flat, sharply hit cross. If you use this from the side and fire the ball into the penalty area, your attackers can simply get their foot on it and convert the ball. Of course, this isn’t a guaranteed recipe for goals, but the cross is a good opportunity for a goal setup.
Perfect timing with long through passes
To get your strikers in front of the goal, through passes are a good means. But a particular through pass is especially powerful – namely the one you send from your own half straight to the front.
With through passes, you can send your players behind the defense
Here’s how it works:
Use a ball-carrying player in your half and send the striker at the front with L1/LB on an offensive run.
Then you should run with the ball-carrying player to the outside to buy some time.
Keep an eye on the striker as he runs forward. Use the radar at the bottom for this.
Then fire a long through pass with Triangle/Y as soon as the attacker is level with the last defender. If you have a fast striker at the front, he will outrun your opponent completely and bring you right in front of the keeper. Then you just need to finish.
Lob passes in close space
Are you having trouble with your passes being intercepted or played inaccurately? Bring some variety into your play and use lob passes. To do this, simply double tap the pass button (X/A) or the through pass button (Triangle/Y).
The advantage of these passes is that they are not easily blocked and also fly with great accuracy. Especially in the opponent’s penalty area, this can be the necessary surprise you need for a scoring opportunity.
In close space, skill moves can be helpful
If you still can’t get past the opponent despite the lob passes in close spaces, you should incorporate some tricks into your play. Some skills are quite easy but still very effective. These include:
The Bridge (double R1/RB), which gives you a slight speed boost.
The Ball Roll (move the right stick sideways), which can give you the necessary space through a slight shift.
Even a few simple trick movements can help you gain that crucial bit of space.
Swamps are one of the biomes of Valheim and represent the next step in your journey for many players after the Dark Forest. Here, you will encounter dangers for the first time that you have not faced before. MeinMMO explains what you can find in the swamp and provides survival tips.
What is the Swamp? Of the currently six biomes, the Swamp is the third one you will travel to – ignoring the ocean. You will find swamps always in coastal areas and often right next to a Dark Forest.
The area shaded in brown is a swamp.
How do I reach a Swamp? If you can’t find a swamp on your island, you will first need to cross a lake or even the ocean. For this, you will need a ship, though we strongly advise against a raft. It’s better to build a Karve directly.
In swamps, you can find iron, which is the next highest material after copper, tin, and bronze. There are also additional materials for new cooking recipes, potions, and building components.
Once you locate a swamp, you should be careful not to underestimate it. This biome is much more dangerous compared to the Dark Forest.
Survival Tips for the Swamp Overview
Stay away from puddles, as enemies often lurk there and you wade through very slowly.
It continuously rains in the swamp – you are always wet and have reduced stamina regeneration. Stamina mead can help you. In our guide, you can read how to brew mead in Valheim.
The power of Eikthyr also helps you combat the reduced stamina regeneration.
Many enemies use poison attacks. Bring along some poison resistance mead; it can save your life.
Enemies often appear in groups. Try to separate them using ranged combat and fight them one by one.
Get at least troll hide armor and bronze weapons before heading out. Upgrade both to at least level 2 or 3. A fist or tower shield is also advisable.
Never build directly in the swamp – there is usually grassland nearby where you can establish your outpost.
If you want to save space, leave the axe in storage and only take a bronze pickaxe; the bark from trees is not needed for the moment.
Atgeir and the Stagbreaker from Eikthyr will help you deal with groups of enemies and keep them at bay. The hammer is also strong against blobs and skeletons.
The Swamp in Detail – Enemies, Boss, Dungeons, and Loot
These enemies exist in the Swamp: The standard enemies in the swamp are the undead Draugr – undead Vikings who have left the realm of the living but are not allowed to travel to the realm of the dead. You will find them in the form of:
Melee fighters with axes, some with shields
Archers
and elite warriors
They can be easily defeated with bronze weapons and a shield by parrying their attacks. Just be careful not to be overwhelmed by their numbers.
Draugr are the most common enemies in the swamp.
The second most common enemies are leeches (“Leeches”) and skeletons. You already know skeletons from the Dark Forest, and they are neither stronger nor smarter in the swamp. Leeches, on the other hand, hide in the water and can poison you. Therefore, avoid the puddles or watch for ripples in the water that indicate the movement of the leeches. It is quite hard to spot them through the mud.
Rarer encounters in the swamp include wraiths (“Wraiths”), blobs (“Blobs”), and oozer that split into blobs. Wraiths appear suddenly and can catch you by surprise – be careful, as they don’t withstand much in combat. Blobs are thick, living slime bags that attack you with poison and are resistant to pierce weapons. It’s best to attack them from a distance and use blunt weapons or frost arrows if you have them.
The boss in the swamp is Bone Mass, a giant pile of living, rotting corpses, considered one of the hardest bosses in the game. In our Valheim Boss Guide on MeinMMO, you can find out how to summon and defeat Bone Mass.
These dungeons exist in the Swamp: In swamps, you can find sunken crypts, which you can unlock with the swamp key. Inside, you will find iron as a new material as well as leather scraps, weathered bones (for the boss), bone fragments, and ancient bark, which you can otherwise gather from trees.
Additionally, the crypts are full of treasures and gold, which you can sell to the merchant Haldor to obtain rare goods from him. If you have trouble finding him, there is an easy trick to find the merchant in Valheim.
The crypts in the swamp are sources of important loot.
These new loots can be found in the swamp:
Iron scraps in crypts – Tier-3 metal for stronger weapons, tools, and armor; also found in new components and the largest ship, the longship
Innards of Draugr – Needed for making sausages at the cauldron
Blood bags from leeches – Important ingredient for stronger healing mead and frost resistance mead
Slime from blobs – Needed for poison arrows
Ancient bark from trees or from crypts – Needed for new decorations and the longship
Chains from wraiths – For the bellows to upgrade the forge
Slime from trees (requires iron tool) – Green dye for banners and material for the later-tier-4 bow
Turnip seeds from plants – New seeds to plant with your plow
Trophies from the respective enemies
What comes after the Swamp?
If you conquer the swamp and have gathered enough iron, you can craft better armor and weapons with the new materials. Important: be sure to take blood sacks with you. You will need these for frost resistance mead, which is required for the next biome: the mountains.
In the mountains, it is so cold that you will freeze and take damage regularly unless you protect yourself with mead or special armor. However, you will only acquire the armor in the mountains themselves.
If you pay attention to our tips and follow the advice, you should not have any problems in the swamp. Once you have defeated Bone Mass, you can venture into the mountains and search for silver to further improve yourself. Remember to stock up on enough iron beforehand.

This has now changed: With an update to CoD: Black Ops Cold War, developer Treyarch is making changes to the team kill mechanics. This change affects the League Play mode of Cold War.
Additionally, the update contains some fixes to the user interface, a map, and the zombie mode. MeinMMO summarizes what changes with the update from February 13 in CoD: Cold War.
Team killers will have a hard time in League Play moving forward.
Team kills will now be punished in League Play
What changes with team kills? The update has now implemented a mechanism that is intended to mitigate team kills. Now you injure yourself if you kill team members too often.
This is how the change works:
If you kill a team member twice, the damage will bounce back to the offender on the next attempt.
If you try to eliminate someone from your own team after the 2nd team kill two more times, you will be kicked.
What else is changing in League Play? Additionally, the RX-DC, a remote-controlled mini-car with explosives, is removed from the mode.
There are also some adjustments to the UI. In addition to a display of your progress, a faulty display of the last event has been fixed, and a problem has been resolved where players could not scroll through their progress.
