Alexander Leitsch 7. February 2021 Reading time 5 minutes

On February 3rd, the new patch 11.3 for Teamfight Tactics was released. We at MeinMMO will reveal to you what new features it brought and what the currently best champion combos in the game are.

What has changed with patch 11.3? The new update made only minor changes and bug fixes. There was a slight buff for Dragon Soul, Tristana, and Brand, as well as a nerf to the attribute Spirit.

You can find the complete patch notes on the official Riot Games page.

Everything about the new set 4 in TFT can be found here:

This article originally appeared in October 2020. It is continuously updated to current patches. The latest update took place on February 6, 2021, for patch 11.3.

Warlords

Which chosen one does the combo need? This combo requires that you get a chosen one with Warlords or Nidalee as a sniping champion. There are several play styles here.

Variant 1 – 6 Warlords with Nidalee as the chosen one:

Nidalee – Warlord/Sniper
Jarvan IV – Warlord/Guardian
Katarina – Warlord/Lucky/Assassin
Azir – Warlord/Emperor/Guardian
Vi – Warlord/Brawler
Samira – Hellion/Sniper
Sivir – Cultist/Sniper
Depending on Nidalee’s attribute: Teemo – Spirit/Sniper or Tryndamere – Warlord/Duelist/Butcher

These attributes are used by the combo:

6 Warlords
2 Guardians
4 Snipers

Which items does the combo need? For the combo, it is important that Nidalee takes on the role of the carry:

Nidalee – Jeweled Gauntlet, Spear of Shojin, Guardian Angel or Hand of Justice
Teemo/Sivir – Zeke’s Herald, Chalice of Power

What does the early game look like? In the early game, you should early play 3 Warlords, 2 Snipers, and ideally even 2 Guardians. In transition, you can play 4 Guardians or quickly get 4 Snipers together.

What is the gold plan? You try to get to 50 gold without leveling too much. You try to get Nidalee to level 3 before you start leveling up.

Variant 2 – 9 Warlords with Katarina as the chosen one:

Nidalee – Warlord/Sniper
Jarvan IV – Warlord/Guardian
Katarina – Warlord/Lucky/Assassin
Azir – Warlord/Emperor/Guardian
Vi – Warlord/Brawler
Tryndamere – Warlord/Duelist/Butcher
Garen – Warlord/Frontline Fighter
Samira – Hellion/Sniper

These attributes are used by the combo:

9 Warlords
2 Guardians
2 Snipers

Which items does the combo need? For the combo, it is important that Katarina takes on the role of the carry:

Katarina – Hextech Gunblade, Quicksilver, Titan’s Resolve
Jarvan – Sunfire Cape, Ionic Spark
Tryndamere – Guardian Angel, Infinity Edge

What does the early game look like? In the early game, you should early play 3 Warlords, 2 Snipers, and ideally even 2 Guardians.

What is the gold plan? You try to get to 50 gold and then find a chosen Katarina. For this, you should quickly aim for level 7. An alternative would also be Tryndamere as the chosen one and then equip him with better items.

Kayle and her Executioners

Which chosen one does the combo need? This combo can be played with a flexible chosen one, with an executioner significantly strengthening the team. Ideally, you want Kayle as the executioner, but Kayle as the divine also works.

Which champions are used?

Kayle – Divine/Executioner
Kindred – Spirit/Executioner
Xayah – Ancestral/Henker/Guardian
Yuumi – Mystic/Spirit
Shen – Adept/Ninja/Mystic
Irelia – Adept/Divine/Enlightened
Yone – Adept/Exiled
Azir – Warlord/Emperor/Guardian
Alternatively, Lee Sin – Divine/Duelist as the 9th unit or as a replacement for Azir when you get Kayle as a divine chosen one.

These attributes are used by the combo:

4 Executioners
3 Adepts
2 Mystics
2 Spirits
2 Guardians
2 Divine

Which items does the combo need? The combo values Kayle as the carry in both cases:

Kayle – Rapid Firecannon, Guinsoo’s Rageblade, Quicksilver
Kindred – Zeke’s Herald, Chalice of Power
Yone – Blue Buff, Warmog’s Armor

What does the early game look like? In the early game, you ideally play a completely different combo that synergizes well with your items. Here, Snipers, Frontline Fighters, or Duelists are appealing.

What is the gold plan? You save up to level 50 and quickly level up to 8. Only then can you fully activate your combo and find Kayle as a chosen one.

Legendaries

Which chosen one does the combo need? This combo does not require a chosen one. The goal is to get as many individually strong units on the field in the late game as possible.

Which champions are used?

Shen – Adept/Ninja/Mystic
Yone – Adept/Exiled
Zilean – Cultist/Mystic
Swain – Dragon Soul/Remover
Samira – Hellion/Sniper/Butcher
Sett – The Boss/Brawler
Azir – Warlord/Emperor/Guardian
Morgana – Enlightened/Remover
Lee Sin – Divine/Duelist or optionally Ornn for the items

These attributes are used by the combo:

2 Adepts
2 Mystics
2 Removers

Which items does the combo need? In this combo, Samira and Yone are the important units

Samira – Last Breath, Guardian Angel, Guinsoo’s Rageblade
Yone – Blue Buff, Hextech Gunblade, Hand of Justice

What does the early game look like? In the early game, you play something completely different, where you can play Warlords, Frontline Fighters, Zed, and pretty much everything else.

What is the gold plan? In this combo, everything revolves around having a lot of gold and getting to level 8 and then 9 as quickly as possible. The legendary units will win the game for you at the end due to their strength.

Zed and Spirits

Which chosen one does the combo need? The combo does not necessarily focus on a chosen one, but Zed as a butcher is appealing.

Which champions are used?

Zed – Ninja/Butcher
Pyke – Cultist/Butcher/Assassin
Diana – Spirit/Assassin
Kindred – Spirit/Executioner
Teemo – Spirit/Sniper
Yuumi – Spirit/Mystic
Samira – Hellion/Butcher/Sniper
Zilean – Cultist/Mystic

These attributes are used by the combo:

3 Butchers
4 Spirits
2 Mystics
2 Snipers

Which items does the combo need? This combo relies on Zed as the carry and requires matching items

Zed – Rapid Firecannon, Ruunan’s Hurricane, Quicksilver
Kindred – Zeke’s Herald, Chalice of Power

What does the early game look like?

What is the gold plan? You try to get to 50 gold and find Zed or Pyke as the chosen one at level 5. You then have two options: Level quickly for Samira or bring Zed/Pyke to level 3. Both options can work, but Zed 3 is significantly stronger in the endgame.

New to CoD Warzone? This map is small, fast, and perfect for beginners

Maik Schneider 7. February 2021 Reading time 6 minutes

Diving into a big Battle Royale like Call of Duty: Warzone can be really exhausting. We explain why the map Rebirth Island is better suited for beginners based on a Warzone trip with the MeinMMO editorial team.

Call of Duty: Warzone is a hardcore shooter, but it’s also a really fun experience once you get the hang of it. However, the beginning can be quite challenging for newcomers.

For an efficient start, we at MeinMMO recommend the map Rebirth Island, and we will show you why based on an outing with a few complete beginners from the editorial team.

Warzone Tip for Beginners: Start on the Map Rebirth Island

What is Rebirth Island? It is the second map of Warzone alongside the map Verdansk and is a mix between a prison and a weapons lab. Compared to the large map Verdansk, Rebirth Island is much smaller, and instead of 150 players, only a maximum of 40 players land on the island to fight for victory.

Why Rebirth Island to start? Here you often have action right from the start and can learn the game much better than in Verdansk. You have more frequent battles, and the rounds end quicker. This can be best illustrated with a practical example.

MeinMMO Squad Attempting to Conquer the Warzone

As the MeinMMO squad, I, Maik Schneider, along with my colleagues Patrick Freese, Florian Franck, and Philipp Hansen, ventured into the Warzone.

Phil was quite familiar with the Warzone, as I had previously scored a victory in the big Battle Royale with him. However, Patrick and Flo were complete newcomers in Warzone and were not familiar with the gameplay of Modern Warfare firsthand. Nonetheless, the two are generally quite familiar with shooters.

Starting in the Warzone should still be a real challenge – for both noobs and my nerves. To complicate matters, both were mouse and keyboard players, while Phil and I preferred the controller for our first-person shooters. Questions about key bindings were playfully answered with PlayStation symbols instead of serious responses.

First Match in Verdansk Lasted Only a Few Moments

To start, I explained to Flo and Patrick important settings in Warzone and then we headed to the large map Verdansk. We decided on a drop at the “Military Base,” one of my favorite spots for the first landing. And my colleagues were about to find out why. Because full action awaited us here.

Although the situation in relation to the circle was not optimal, many teams flew to our spot. It was loud, and I quickly had to explain to our beginners the Gulag, the respawn mechanic of Warzone, which allows you to fight your way back during a match.

Despite the Gulag, the first match ended quickly, and although we had a nice time, it wasn’t due to the fun of the game up to that point.

We Veterans Had Fun, but the Noob Colleagues Were Just Following Along

In the next rounds, we landed further away from the circle and at less popular spots. Phil and I explained a lot, we got our loadouts, and we were able to take down some enemies.

But our two beginners experienced hardly any of the action. While Phil ended a round with 9 kills and I also got up to 7 kills, our noobs hardly got anything done. We ended our best match in 10th place, but the sluggish flow of the round was not particularly glorious.

Overall, we played seven matches on the large map and then decided to switch to Rebirth Island. The smaller map came into play with the release of the CoD title from 2020 – Black Ops Cold War.

Beginners Transformed into Helpful Teammates on Rebirth Island

Everything is a bit smaller here, but the action is generally bigger. As a team, you encounter enemies faster and do not have the often quite long breaks between fights that occur on the large map Verdansk. Although tactics for many kills and fights are possible here, often this is not suitable for beginners.

On Rebirth Island, our two noobs truly flourished. The most important instruction Phil and I gave to the two shooter-experienced Warzone beginners was to stick together. This was already the mantra on the large map, but on the small island, our new teammates suddenly became really helpful. Flo and Patrick scored kills, supported us in fights, and helped discover enemies.

The skill jump from Verdansk to Rebirth Island was impressive and made it clear to me – Rebirth Island is the better Warzone for beginners.

You are challenged more often, can quickly finish a round, and theoretically have greater chances of victory because fewer players are on the map. After a very strong match, we deservedly secured third place, which could have been a win with better coordination. But I won’t complain.

By the way, we had a similar experience in PUBG, but the other way around. Here, the new map Haven is small, fast, and really not suitable for newcomers.

Watch Out for Game Modes – But as a Beginner, Head to Rebirth Island

What game modes are available for Rebirth Island? In Warzone, there are changing game modes. While the standard Battle Royale on Verdansk is almost always available as solo, duo, trio, and quad, there is usually only one playable variant of Rebirth Island that is active.

So far, there have been three different modes for the map:

Rebirth – In the first 10 minutes of the match, fallen team members return as long as one player from the team is still alive.
Normal Rebirth Island – Standard rules: Fallen players go to the Gulag, the gas circle has the maximum size and closes at the normal speed.
Mini Royale – The gas circle is already significantly smaller at the beginning, making the round much shorter. There is a Gulag for a short time.

The two special modes “Rebirth” and “Mini Royale” promise even more action than Rebirth Island with regular BR rules. Things get much faster here, and you often have fights around every corner. But don’t let that scare you away, and keep jumping in. These action modes are ideal for getting started in Warzone and becoming a better player.

What else should I know? In Call of Duty, you unlock new weapons and equipment with almost every level up. As a beginner, you should focus on the assault rifle class.

Here you will find many all-round weapons that can help you at all ranges. Some of them focus on range, such as the very stable M13 or the M4A1. Others are stronger in close combat, like the CR-56 AMAX or the FFAR 1.

Check out which perks and loadout combos are strong in Warzone and gradually unlock the equipment. Once you have unlocked the desired weapon, you still need to level it up to unlock the good attachments. This also takes some time. For leveling weapons, however, you should choose a different Warzone mode – tips for leveling weapons in Warzone can be found here.

By the time you finally have your chosen weapon fully equipped with all the attachments, you will have spent several hours in the Battle Royale and gained quite a bit of skill. Then it will slowly become time to develop a suitable strategy that will safely guide you through the early and mid-game phases and provide you with enough equipment and advantages for the endgame. You can find inspiration from the most successful Warzone player – MeinMMO summarizes his strategy.

Mass Effect: The Remaster will be less sexy, changes “problematic” scenes

Cortyn 7. February 2021 Reading time 3 minutes

The Legendary Edition of Mass Effect changes a few small scenes. There are significantly fewer butts – at least in the inappropriate moments.

Even though it is “just” a remaster, the Mass Effect: Legendary Edition is likely one of the most highly anticipated games of 2021 for many players. After all, this sci-fi RPG is probably BioWare’s biggest and most well-known RPG and is considered a true milestone in video game history – a brand new title in the franchise is still a long way off. In the meantime, many details about the remaster are known. In addition to a larger adjustment of the gameplay of part 1, there are also a few changes, such as in the camera angles that cast female characters in a questionable light.

Problematic camera poses will be changed: In an interview with Metro magazine , Project Director Mac Walters spoke about a few small adjustments that will be made. He said:

[One of the developers] pointed out a few camera cuts that were just… why was that focused on Miranda’s butt? So we said in some cases: ‘Okay, we can make changes here.’

Anyone who has played the series will likely remember those scenes. In some cases, they were so unintentionally absurd that they burned into the players’ memories – especially in connection with the character Miranda Lawson, a constant companion in part 2 of the series.

Scenes like this were few and far between in the game series – sometimes so inappropriately glaring and out of place that it led to a flurry of memes. What was once “Mass Effect” became “Ass Effect” – even if you’d rather not Google that for too long.

Fem-Shep also gets slight changes: Similar adjustments are also made when the player takes on the role of the female Shepard (Fem-Shep).

The problem here was that the female Shepard was originally conceived by the developers as a kind of “niche option”. They did not expect many players to actually play a female Shepard in part 1 – even though this turned out to be a misconception.

Therefore, Fem-Shep uses virtually the same animations as her male counterpart, which is not an issue in most scenes. However, when male Shepard sits with his legs spread on a bench, resting his chin on his crossed hands while contemplating the fate of the galaxy, it looks cool. When Fem-Shep sits in the same pose wearing a short skirt, it is rather inappropriate and gives the scenes a strange aftertaste that simply does not fit the situation.

They managed this with small tricks. The camera in these scenes is simply set a bit higher.

When will Mass Effect: Legendary Edition be released? The release of the major remaster version is set for May 14, 2021 – so in just under 3 months. Then veterans and newcomers can once again take Commander Shepard into battle to save the galaxy, pick up their crew companions, or seriously mess with entire alien races.

The Legendary version includes all single-player content from the original “Mass Effect” trilogy. However, the multiplayer mode will not be included.

Are you excited for the remaster of Mass Effect? What do you think of the small changes that are being made?

Football professional is also strong in FIFA 21 – Lands in 1st place of the FUT Champions

Noah Struthoff 7. February 2021 Reading time 2 minutes

Professional footballer Diogo Jota is also a true professional in FIFA 21. The player from FC Liverpool achieved a 30-0 in the Weekend League and briefly climbed to rank 1 in the FUT Champions.

What’s at stake: Normally, the left winger storms in the Premier League for FC Liverpool, but currently, Diogo Jota is sidelined due to injury. The Portuguese apparently uses this time with FIFA 21, as he achieved a remarkable feat in the Weekend League. He won all 30 matches, briefly rising to first place in the FUT Champions. He was thus the best player in the world – at least on PlayStation.

Here we show you the professional’s team and reveal what he has already accomplished in FIFA games in the past.

Diogo Jota Dominates FIFA 21 – This is his Team

This is what Jota shared: On Twitter, the professional shared a picture where he reached the first rank in the FUT Champions. Also came the overview of his team:

No one from his FC Liverpool teammates is in the team. However, Jürgen Klopp is also here on the coaching bench – just like in real life at FC Liverpool.

Otherwise, Jota has 4 Prime Icons in his team, and he himself is represented as well. He has a 99-rated card of himself. All professional footballers receive such cards of their own.

Especially offensively, Jota is strongly positioned. In defense, for example, Mendy from Real Madrid plays, who, despite his 83-rating, is known as a strong meta card.

Jota’s current success: The professional briefly reached the first rank in the FUT Champions. However, he has now dropped to rank 3. Two other players also won all 30 matches but had a higher skill rating (via futbin).

This is how Jota has performed in FIFA so far: The football professional is not a stranger in FIFA. In the previous installment, the professional already won 30-0 in the Weekend League.

However, Jota also stated in an interview that he became a better football player thanks to FIFA. He attributes this mainly to his understanding of tactics in the game. You can read more about this here:

Pokémon GO: “A Roselia has sprung” for 1 € – What’s inside?

Noah Struthoff 7. February 2021 Reading time 2 minutes

In Pokémon GO, you can currently purchase the ticket “A Roselia has blossomed” for the Community Day in February. We show you what rewards await you.

What kind of research is this? Today, the Community Day with Roselia is happening, and accordingly, there is a ticket for a special research available for purchase in the Pokémon GO shop. For 0.99 cents, you can buy the research “A Roselia has blossomed”.

In our overview, we show you all the steps for the research and tell you if the purchase is worth it.

Special Research with Roselia for Community Day

We know all the tasks of the special research since the Community Day has already started in other parts of the world. Trainers there have shared their experiences on reddit.

A Roselia has blossomed 1/4

Task	Reward
Use 10 Power-Ups on Pokémon	10 Poké Balls
Catch 15 Roselia	20 Roselia Candy
Make 5 great throws	Encounter with Roselia

Stage reward: For completing this stage, you will receive 2,000 Stardust, 10 Nanab Berries, and an encounter with Roselia.

A Roselia has blossomed 2/4

Task	Reward
Catch 15 Roselia	50 Roselia Candy
Send 10 Pokémon	500 Stardust
Use 15 Nanab Berries to catch Pokémon	1 Sinnoh Stone

Stage reward: For completing this stage, you will receive 2,000 Stardust, 1x Incense, and a Knurps.

A Roselia has blossomed 3/4

Task	Reward
Make 3 excellent Curveball throws	50 Roselia Candy
Evolve a Roselia	2x Golden Razz Berry
Send 10 Pokémon	1,500 XP

Stage reward: For completing this stage, you will receive 2,000 Stardust, 15 Ultra Balls, and a Rocket Radar.

A Roselia has blossomed 4/4

Task	Reward
Already completed	5,000 Stardust
Already completed	1,500 XP
Already completed	2x Silver Nanab Berry

Stage reward: For completing this stage, you will receive 2,000 Stardust, 2 Rare Candies, and an encounter with Roserade.

Should you buy a ticket?

In short: It’s worth it! One Euro is about 100 Poké Coins. Just the Rocket Radar costs 200 Poké Coins in the shop. So, you get many items that are worth much more than one Euro.

The balls you get from the research are also useful for the Community Day. Roselia is somewhat harder to catch. So, it’s good to have a few more balls in stock.

Additionally, you get 13,000 Stardust. That’s a lot of dust you can earn in a short time.

Another ticket that is currently available in the shop revolves around the Kanto Tour in February. We show you if this purchase is worth it:

Choose the best class from Destiny 2 with us

Philipp Hansen 6. February 2021 Reading time 5 minutes

In Destiny 2 können Hunters, Titans und Warlocks aus insgesamt 12 Subklassen wählen. MeinMMO möchte wissen, welche dabei eurer Meinung nach die beste ist – die neuen Stasis-Klassen oder doch die altbewährten Licht-Fokusse?

Ihr wählt in Destiny 2 nicht nur aus, ob ihr als stoischer Titan, geschickter Hunter oder zauberhafter Warlock loszieht. Ihr habt zudem die Qual der Wahl aus mittlerweile 12 Subklassen, auch Fokusse genannt.

Jeder Klasse stehen davon 4 unterschiedliche Spezialisierungen zur Verfügung, die sich durch ihre Fähigkeiten und das zugehörige Element unterscheiden.
Die Spielweise ändert sich spürbar und es macht einen Unterschied wie Tag und Nacht, welche Subklasse ihr ausrüstet.

Das ist neu: Seit wir das letzte Mal von euch wissen wollten, welcher Fokus der beste und beliebteste ist, hat sich einiges getan. Zu den bekannten 9 Licht-Klassen sind 3 Stasis-Klassen dazugekommen. Seit Beyond Light experimentieren Hunters, Warlocks und Titans erstmals mit den fiesen Eiskräften der Dunkelheit. Stasis-Kräfte sind das erste neue Element in Destiny überhaupt und sorgen für reichlich Aufsehen bei den Spielern.

Alle 12 Subklassen für eure Guardians im Schnelldurchlauf

Bevor ihr selbst entscheidet, welche Subklassen nun die besten im PvE und PvP sind, stellen wir euch alle 12 kurz vor. Wir betrachten dabei jeden Element-Fokus als Ganzes. Ihr findet hier also für jede Klasse den Solar-, Arkus, Leere- und Stasis-Fokus.

Wer wissen will, welche Klasse 2020 hoch im Kurs stand, wird her fündig: Die Subklassen von Destiny 2 im Ranking

Fokusse für den Hunter

Revolverheld: Dieser Fokus erinnert an einen einsamen Cowboy, der nicht viel spricht, aber schnell zieht und nie sein Ziel verfehlt. Ihr könnt entweder mit eurer Goldenen Kanone alles zum Schweigen bringen oder das letzte Wort mit euren brennenden Wurfmessern haben.

Arkusakrobat: Als eine der wohl agilsten Subklassen im Spiel weicht ihr gegnerischen Treffern mühelos aus oder pariert feindliche Attacken. Ihr tänzelt eure Feinde akrobatisch aus und schlagt mit Stab und Blitzen zu.

Nachtpirscher: Diese Vertreter sind richtige Großwildjäger und dank ihrer Fallen und Verwirrungstechniken ihren Feinden stets überlegen. Keine andere Klasse spielt sich so hinterhältig und nutzt die Leere für gemeinere Attacken mit Bogen oder Dolchen.

Wiedergänger: Durch Stasis werden Hunters zu Eis-Ninjas. Ihr werft eure beiden Kama-Sicheln und Shuriken, um Feinde zu verlangsamen und einzufrieren. Habt ihr das Schlachtfeld bewegungsunfähig gemacht, lasst ihr Wirbelstürme oder fiese Sprungattacken los, um alles zu zersplittern.

Fokusse für den Titanen

Sonnenbezwinger: Diese Titans wollen die Welt einfach nur brennen sehen. Eure mächtigen Kriegshämmer hinterlassen nichts als Schutt, Asche und verbrannte Erde. Das Feuer verzehrt eure Feinde und stärkt eure Verbündeten.

Stürmer: Als Stürmer fühlt ihr euch mitten in der Gegnerhorde am wohlsten und richtet dort Chaos an. Diese Titans stehen ständig unter Strom und können von nichts und niemandem gestoppt werden.

Sentinel: Nicht alle können so stark wie Titanen sein, daher beschützen Sentinels gleich das ganze Team mit ihren undurchdringlichen Schilden. Diese können sie aber auch meisterhaft als Waffe nutzen und machen selbst Captain America neidisch.

Koloss: Stasis-Titanen hüllen sich in einen Eispanzer, was ihnen enorme Schadens-Reduktion gewährt. Sie schlagen dann mit ihren gefrorenen Fäusten zu und sind – anders als vermutet – enorm schnell. Auf Knopfdruck lasst ihr Gletscher entstehen, die ihr natürlich in tausend Splitter zerhaut.

Fokusse für den Warlock

Dämmerklinge: Wer braucht schon Knarren, wenn er brennende Schwerter sowie Flügel hat? Die Dämmerklinge kann über dem Schlachtfeld fliegen und es Feuer regnen lassen oder wahlweise das ganze Team heilen sowie durch Feuermagie verstärken.

Sturmbeschwörer: Diese Warlocks kontrollieren die Elektrizität und rufen auf Knopfdruck ein Gewitter herbei. Über die mickrigen Blitz-Finger des bösen Imperators aus Star Wars können Sturmbeschwörer nur lachen und nebenbei haben sie das “Kamehameha” aus Dragonball perfektioniert.

Leere-Läufer: Mithilfe der Dunkelheit zerbrechen Leere-Läufer die Realität und lassen mit ihrer Nova-Bombe alles hochgehen. Wahlweise werden sie selbst zur Bombe und heilen sich durch die angerichtete Zerstörung.

Schattenbinder: Stasis-Warlocks bringen alles zum Stillstand. Dazu schwingen die Eis-Magier ihren Zauberstab und frieren Feinde auf alle erdenklichen Weisen ein. In der Super schweben sie dann und zerschmettern alle zur Eissäule erstarrten Gegner auf dem Schlachtfeld.

Umfrage: Welcher Fokus ist euer Favorit 2021 in Destiny 2?

BlizzConline 2021: What can we expect from our games?

Cortyn 6. February 2021 Reading time 5 minutes

Coming soon, BlizzConline 2021 will take place. We will look at what the event could bring and what you can look forward to.

In 2020, BlizzCon was canceled. The reason for this was, as with so much, the Corona pandemic. However, the developer still wants to host a celebration and has come up with BlizzConline 2021. This is almost at the door, as it will take place in less than two weeks. But what can one hope for from BlizzConline and what will likely have no news? We list for you what BlizzConline could hold – and when.

What will be presented at BlizzConline?

In principle, the exact contents of BlizzConline are still a secret; so far, it is not known what exactly will be presented. However, some grounded speculations can already be made that make quite a bit of sense.

World of Warcraft: Shadowlands: For Shadowlands, it is already relatively clear what the BlizzCon will be about. The focus is likely to be the reveal of at least one major patch, perhaps even two at once. After all, Blizzard is already preparing Patch 9.0.5 on the PTR. However, it is clear that there will be new information about the progression of the story, and we will find out how Blizzard plans to address the current issues facing Shadowlands.

WoW Classic: The story of WoW Classic has come to an end; Naxxramas has been defeated. But players are already eagerly eyeing the first expansion “The Burning Crusade Classic.” Many surveys have already indicated this in advance. An announcement of the release is considered almost assured, along with plans on how it will work with the current servers.

Hearthstone: So far, nothing is known about the expansions of Hearthstone for 2021 – so an expansion will almost certainly be presented. At the same time, the developers have already let slip that they are working on a completely new game mode, which will be introduced in addition to duels and battlegrounds. A first glimpse of it could increase the enjoyment of the card game again.

Diablo Immortal: The mobile offshoot of Diablo is expected to be released later this year. Thus, more can be expected about gameplay and story, perhaps also concrete hints about the release and possible changes made in response to the beta test.

Overwatch (2): Possibly a new hero or a new map. One shouldn’t expect much more here, as Overwatch 2 is likely still a work in progress. Maybe there will be some insights into the development or already some information about a rough release window.

Warcraft Mobile? Just recently, Blizzard has emphasized once again that they are working on several mobile offshoots from the Warcraft franchise. Some of these are allegedly already in “advanced development.” It is conceivable that we might catch a first glimpse of a prototype.

What won’t come? Bad news for fans who were looking forward to Diablo IV. It has already been mentioned in advance during an earnings call that Diablo IV should not be expected this year. However, there might be some new information after all.

Also, information about StarCraft is likely to be absent; after all, the development of StarCraft 2 has been discontinued. It is still too early to announce a new title here.

How to participate in BlizzConline?

BlizzConline is free: Unlike the usual BlizzCon, where you have to purchase a virtual ticket for access, this is not the case with BlizzConline. All streams and announcements are open to everyone, there is no paywall.

Additionally, the corresponding streams will still be available for viewing after the release, should you want to take another look at the details.

For those who want to avoid spending money but still want to get through such a presentation, they can purchase one of Blizzard’s anniversary packages and get many digital goodies. Alternatively, you can crown yourself for 300 US dollars as the new Lich King. However, this is not necessary.

Where can you watch? Watching BlizzConline can be done in several ways, but the easiest is through the official BlizzConline website. There, all channels are listed and you can easily switch between them as soon as they are available.

The most important dates – When is what coming?

Traditionally, BlizzCon spans several days. On the first day, the big announcements and presentations usually take place, while on day 2, detailed information is spread and community events are held. So you should expect the “big hits” most likely on the night from Friday to Saturday.

Friday, February 19 starting at 11:00 PM

Opening Ceremony: Here all the highlights will be rapidly presented. The big announcements and plans will be introduced briefly and succinctly. If you want to have “the most important things” in short, don’t miss the start.

Deep Dives: Individual, focused contributions on individual games. Those who want to learn more about the updates and plans from the opening ceremony in detail will be happy in the Deep Dives, as they find everything about their respective favorite game.

Opening ceremony and deep dives afterwards are expected to last about 3 hours – until 2:00 AM at night. In total, there are 6 different channels you can choose from.

Saturday, February 20 starting at 9:00 PM

Q&As: In these “questions and answers” sessions, the developers respond to comments and questions that have arisen from the previous day. Thus, there are even more details and insights into Blizzard’s plans, and you can get a more precise picture of what the updates are all about.

Community Events: These are more like events that only tangentially relate to updates. Mostly, it is about cosplayers, musicians, or other artists who present their creations related to the various Blizzard games and are honored.

A detailed schedule with the exact times has not yet been made available. As soon as it is revealed, we will certainly report on it.

Will you stay up all night for BlizzConline? Or do you have no big expectations and’ll read calmly the next day about what was presented?

After 7 years, I am canceling my subscription to Final Fantasy XIV for the first time

Irina Moritz 6. February 2021 Reading time 5 minutes

Final Fantasy XIV has announced its new expansion Endwalker. However, MeinMMO author Irina Moritz will still put her subscription on hold this summer. And that is not a big problem.

This was the expansion announcement: The night of February 5 to 6 was something very special for many thousands of FFXIV players around the world. In an Announcement Showcase, the new expansion Endwalker was finally revealed.

In a stream, the director of the MMORPG, Naoki Yoshida, presented the cool teaser trailer, new playable healer job, and other cool features of the upcoming expansion.

I followed the announcement just like many others, even though the stream here in Germany started at 2:30 AM. And while the conclusion of the story and new features sound exciting, for the first time in over 7 years and 800 days of playtime, I will de-subscribe from Final Fantasy XIV.

More on the topic

Final Fantasy XIV brings new expansion Endwalker – release date and all information

von Alexander Leitsch

A summer without new content

One of the main reasons I decided this was the grim experience of “raid logging” that I had in the summer of 2020.

Raid logging is when you only log into the game at the times the group assembles for raids. For many groups, it gets reduced to once a week after the raid kills, to quickly get their loot and log out again.

The Corona pandemic, which we all have had enough of by now, has also caught the FFXIV team off guard. The consequence was a content gap of 6 months between patches 5.2 and 5.3, during which I hardly logged into the game at all.

The content from 5.2 was fun:

The story continuation of Shadowbringers was entertaining.
The Eden raid had tough bosses and strong new gear to farm.
The reconstruction of Ishgard brought cool cosmetic items as rewards. And because entire servers worked together on it, it felt like a communal project, as it should in an MMORPG.

I ground this content so much that I couldn’t stand to see it by the release of 5.3 in August. It wasn’t enough to fill a 6-month gap.

Will summer 2021 be the same? This delay could not be caught up by the team, according to director Yoshida. And as the roadmap for 2021 for FFXIV currently looks, there will also be such a content gap in summer 2021 until the expansion finally comes out.

Here is the approximate timeline for Final Fantasy XIV for 2021:

The first part of catch-up patch 5.5 will be released on April 13.
The second part of 5.5 will come after the digital fan festival in May and will bridge the story to Endwalker.
The expansion releases in fall 2021. My optimistic estimate lies here between mid-September and early October. Given the unstable situation due to Corona, it could also become November if luck is not on our side.

Again, a gap will open up in summer where there is likely to be no new content supply. It feels like déjà vu from 2020, which is why I want to avoid raid logging this time and will put my subscription on hold until the expansion.

The formula of FFXIV works – just not for me anymore

Another reason lies in FFXIV’s update strategy, which is a double-edged sword. On one hand, other MMORPGs can only envy FFXIV for its constant content supply.

Every 3-4 months, players receive a chunk of new quests, raid bosses, dungeons, outfits, and other content. There is regularly something new for players to grind.

This is the downside of FFXIV updates: On the other hand, it comes at the cost of surprise. The patch structure of FFXIV has not changed since 2013, and veteran players can often predict with astonishing precision what to expect in the next update because they always follow the same pattern.

And it was the same with the new expansion. The announced content has strongly overlapped with that of the previous expansions:

New story content
New 8-man raid in normal and epic
New 24-man raid
New extremely difficult ultimate raid
Some new dungeons
2 new jobs
Increase of level cap by 10 levels
New content for collecters and crafters

The variety, of course, was in the actual form of the content. It was clear that there would be new jobs and raids, but no one could know exactly how the new healer or raid would look. But there is still much speculation about the new melee job. The general tendency is always the same.

That’s why FFXIV updates work: However, from the reports to investors that Square Enix regularly publishes, you can see that the success vindicates Yoshida.

The revenues of Square Enix’s MMO division experienced a strong boost with the release of Shadowbringers, which is also attributed to the rising subscription numbers of Final Fantasy XIV. The update and content strategy seems to be working well for the MMORPG.

Whether the patch structure appeals to you is something everyone must decide for themselves. It has its pros and cons. But after 7 years, I’ve developed a bit of fatigue that has only been exacerbated by the current information about the new expansion.

But hey, in May at the digital fan fest, there will be more announcements. Maybe a big surprise awaits me.

Is this a problem? No, not at all

If the text comes off as bitter, it is not meant that way. Director Yoshida himself once said that you should de-subscribe from your game if you no longer find content that is fun. You should not force yourself to log in every day if you find no engagement in the game, according to Yoshida.

And this is very important. Especially in MMOs, I often feel that people feel they must play every day non-stop and then are incredibly frustrated when content droughts occur.

On one hand, I can understand it. One has fun and wants more of it. But on the other hand, it causes unnecessary frustration. And that’s exactly what I want to avoid at this point.

Therefore, after patch 5.5, I will put my subscription on hold for the first time in over 7 years. When the new expansion is out, I will dive into the content fresh and rested.

If you also feel like you are currently missing the spark while playing and you struggle to find enjoyment in the game, then don’t force yourself.

It’s okay to take a break.

Epic promises more than 100 exclusive titles for the store – These are already known

Alexander Leitsch 6. February 2021 Reading time 3 minutes

Epic has been trying to establish its own store as a competitor to Steam for a few years now. To achieve this, they have relied on exclusive titles. In the next 2 years, several exclusives are set to come, as Epic has now revealed.

What has Epic announced? In a statement to the PCGames website, an Epic employee stated that “in the next 2 years, more exclusive titles will be added to the offering than have been released so far.”

Since the launch of the Epic Store, there have been according to GameStar over 100 titles that have either been temporarily or even permanently exclusive to the shop. Among these were games like Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Borderlands 3, or Metro: Exodus.

This statement essentially means that over 100 more exclusive titles are planned. 21 of these titles are already known. We will introduce them briefly in the article.

Sweeney-Newell — A duel for several years: Epic Games (Sweeney – left) vs. Steam (Newell – right).

Why is Epic doing this at all? Epic wants, according to its own statement, to destroy Steam’s monopoly. The platform has become an important place for game releases but takes 30% of the revenue in return.

In early 2019, Epic CEO Tim Sweeney declared that they would forgo exclusive deals if Steam gave developers more of their earnings. They would even publish their own games on Steam then.

But the fight against Steam is progressing slowly. Recently, Epic also had to endure a defeat. The Game of the Year 2020 on Steam is Red Dead Redemption 2, a title for which Epic previously held the exclusive rights, but which performed better on Steam despite delays.

21 titles that will probably be exclusive to the Epic Store

So far, 21 titles are known that are expected to be exclusive to the Epic Store. Exclusive often means, however, that they simply won’t come to Steam. Some of these titles are available for consoles and some will also appear in proprietary shops like the Ubistore. Additionally, some titles have limited-time exclusivity.

The following multiplayer titles are coming to the Epic Store:

Chivalry 2 – A medieval PvP game
Far Cry 6 – An open-world game that is expected to have a multiplayer
Monkey Barrels – A shooter with monkeys and a competitive mode
Rainbow Six Quarantine – A co-op PvE shooter
The Settlers – A real-time strategy game with optional multiplayer
Riders Republic – An open-world MMO where you can experience extreme sports

The following single-player games are already known:

Kena: Bridge of Spirits – An action-adventure
Darkest Dungeon 2 – A turn-based tactics game
Unexplored 2: The Wayfarer’s Legacy – A roguelike ARPG
Solar Ash – A jump’n run
The Eternal Cylinder – An open-world survival game
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake – An action-adventure
Oddworld: Soulstorm – A platformer
Saturnalia – A survival horror game
Vampire: The Masquerade Swansong – A role-playing game
The Wolf Among Us 2 – An action-adventure
Jett: The Far Shore – An action-adventure

Additionally, Epic has already announced 4 new games that they want to release or publish themselves. However, nothing is known about these yet.

What do you think about the games? Are you interested in them and will you play them through Epic? What is your general stance on the topic of “Epic Exclusives”? Let us know in the comments.

The most successful game for Epic Games is likely Fortnite, which is among the most popular games in the world. However, it is currently facing criticism in e-sports. Epic isn’t supporting it as much as some professionals had hoped:

15-year-old leaves school, becomes a professional in Fortnite – now says: “E-sport is dying”

CoD Warzone: Player wins after one second in the Gulag – Here’s how you can do it

Noah Struthoff 6. February 2021 Reading time 2 minutes

The Gulag in CoD Warzone gives you the chance to re-enter the match after death. A player has now shown that you can win the 1-on-1 after just one second.

Here’s the deal: In the Nuketown Gulag, there is a way to take out your opponent after just one second. You need to correctly predict the opponent’s direction and aim well.

With this method, you can directly re-enter the Warzone match without having to engage in a lengthy fight with your opponent in the Gulag.

How to win in the Gulag in a flash

This is the clip: So you can see the quick victory, we are embedding the clip from reddit here:

Link to the Reddit content

How does it work? At first glance, this looks like cheating, but it follows a very simple strategy.

At the player’s spawn point in the reddit clip, you can see a small gap between the wall and the wooden wall on the right side. Right at the start of the Gulag, you need to aim and shoot exactly there.

Theoretically, you hope that the opponent, who is behind the wooden wall, runs directly toward the wall. If he does this at the start of the Gulag, he will run into your shot.

Exactly that happened in the video. The opponent runs directly into the small gap between the wall and the wooden wall, and the player hits him without having seen his opponent.

You need to keep this in mind: The trick does require some finesse, as you need to aim quickly and precisely. Only those who can pinpoint the gap directly and then aim at the right height will hit the target.

Conversely, you could also be standing on the other side of the wooden wall. So keep in mind that your opponent might know the trick too. Don’t run straight into the trap; instead, wait a moment. Otherwise, you will be the loser in a very fast Gulag round.

summit1g promotes small Twitch streamer – he cries out of joy

Noah Struthoff 6. February 2021 Reading time 2 minutes

The well-known Twitch streamer summit1g has done a huge favor for a smaller streamer colleague. He thanks him, saying that it has changed his life.

Here’s what happened: summit1g streams regularly on Twitch with an average of 23,500 viewers (via sullygnome). On January 4, however, the streamer was late and let his viewers on Twitch know that he wanted to sleep for about another hour before going live. In the meantime, he suggested that his fans check out DiamondJamz’s channel.

DiamondJamz is a small Twitch channel that had an average of 39 viewers. Immediately, some fans dropped by the small streamer and left a follow. DiamondJamz was so touched that he even shed tears.

The streamer is visibly touched and promises summit1g that he will now appoint him as a mod. Furthermore, he explains: “This is changing my life. I have been streaming for 6 years and have been waiting for my big breakthrough. I have a 7-year-old son for whom I work so hard to provide a good future.”

Meanwhile, more and more subscribers are coming in, leaving a follow on the channel. DiamondJamz fights back tears, wiping them from his face repeatedly.

Afterward, it even goes further, and some viewers donate money to the small streamer. The viewers tell him that his reactions have sweetened their day. In return, DiamondJamz replies that the viewers have sweetened his day.

What’s the situation now with DiamondJamz? Currently, the streamer has 12,600 followers. The stream promoted by summit1g peaked at 345 viewers.

It remains to be seen whether he can retain the newly gained viewers on his channel or if this is just a one-time event.

That’s why this is so exciting: There are some huge streamers on Twitch, including summit1g. They have an enormous influence on the scene and can move masses.

This is yet another example of what a small call to action can achieve.

However, there are also examples where negative news can cause a real hype on Twitch. A good example is the ban of Missbehavin. She showed herself naked on Twitch and caused a huge wave of outrage. Even the German streamer MontanaBlack commented on it.

In the end, however, Missbehavin actually won on Twitch. She increased her followers from 16,000 to 98,000 followers in just a few days:

Stress in WoW Shadowlands – I barely have time to have fun

Benedict Grothaus 6. February 2021 Reading time 5 minutes

The new expansion Shadowlands for World of Warcraft has been playable for a few months now. MyMMO author Benedict Grothaus is still playing intensely. His conclusion: It’s good, but there’s just too much to do and too few rewards.

I have been a devoted WoW player for 16 years now and find Shadowlands a really successful expansion. The new covenants are an exciting new feature with interesting lore, and I think the new dungeons are all great.

Even the new raid Castle Nathria is more fun for me than any raid in BfA and even more than most in Legion. The atmosphere and mood in the instance and in the whole addon are just right.

Nevertheless, I am somewhat dissatisfied with Shadowlands. Not because it offers too little, but rather too much. I have to do something at every turn.

Ve’nari sends me through the annoying Maw, the Night Fae would like more anima from me, and Torghast beckons every week with two wings that I have to conquer. Additionally, I raid with my guild three evenings a week. And I also have to work eventually.

Too much to do, no time for fun

Here’s everything you have to do: Shadowlands is full of activities in the endgame. Many of them appear regularly – weekly or even daily. They all take a lot of time:

the Maw with its daily quests, where you can only ride with certain mounts
daily emissary quests and world quests
weekly covenant tasks
weekly tasks for PvP in arenas or battlegrounds
two Torghast wings each week
mythic keystone dungeons and the raid

As a reward for these tasks, there’s anima, soul ash, stygia, or loot – all useful items that I don’t want to miss out on. Unfortunately, few of the activities can be combined.

On top of that, I should actually be farming materials or gold to equip myself for PvE. Nowadays, I almost only buy tokens for real money.

That’s why it annoys me: Each of these activities rewards me, it seems, too little. For the effort I put in here, I would like to see more yield. I miss the feeling of having achieved something.

After I have checked off all my “duties” for the week, I don’t feel like I have accomplished anything. I rather inwardly groan because the whole hamster wheel starts turning again on Wednesday. There’s hardly any time to play a twink or farm something.

The worst part is that I have no choice – or at least that’s what I convince myself. Everything I do has a specific purpose. Every task rewards me with something that I can only obtain elsewhere to a limited extent or not at all.

A sense of duty

Why do I have to do all this? I need each of the activities to improve:

Torghast provides soul ash for crafting and upgrading legendary items
Ve’nari and the Maw grant me access to sockets for my equipment
weekly covenant missions advance my renown and improve my soul binds
I need anima to upgrade my sanctum
PvP, raid, and mythic keystone dungeons improve loot for my Great Vault
rated arenas and battlegrounds improve my rating which I need to upgrade some of my best items

Of course, some of these problems are “self-made”. As a progress raider, I have the ambition to get the most out of my character. In this case, I don’t like the limitations.

More on the topic

With the WoWAnalyzer you will become the right top raider

von Benedict Grothaus

When I have more time, like on weekends or otherwise, I can’t “save up” for the next weeks, nor can I make up for lost time. If I miss something, it’s gone, and if I have extra time, I can at most improve my vault.

I don’t feel like I’m getting anything for my time. I can’t do any more or less than a “casual” player and even as a frequent player, I’m only rewarded the same way.

More rewards would help

How could it be better? It’s actually good that there’s so much to do. But the rewards for many areas should simply be larger – or at least present. This would provide greater motivation to endure the weekly grind.

Torghast could additionally reward anima. The stuff is pumped into the Maw anyway, so why can’t we steal it from the Jailer?
Dungeons and raid bosses urgently need more than a pitiful 35 anima as a “consolation prize”. Anima rewards in general should be higher, even if Cortyn has a different opinion.
I would like to farm soul ash retroactively with a weekly increasing cap, similar to conquest points or renown. That would also be good for twinks.
Sockets need an alternative source other than just Ve’nari. Those who actively raid usually neither have the desire nor the time to fight through the Maw every day.

Overall, I’m sure that it would benefit Shadowlands to not stretch the content so much as is currently the case. Moving a bit faster shouldn’t hurt anyone; many guilds are still stuck on the bosses in the raid. “Too fast” isn’t possible right now anyway.

Is everything bad? Even if it sounds like everything frustrates me, that’s not the case. In fact, it annoys me how much I have to do in a week, but many activities are also fun in themselves.

I enjoy visiting Torghast, I would like to see it more often – but it just isn’t worth it. Dungeons and even PvP are also fun, but only with a fixed group, which again limits possible time.

And ultimately, I raid because it brings me joy. I just sometimes wish that I could achieve better progress. The rewards from dungeons and raids in Shadowlands are already lower than in previous expansions – at least the surrounding content should go a bit faster. Or not?

For the future, I definitely wish to maintain my enthusiasm for WoW, even through tougher times. Others manage it too: This 78-year-old Twitch streamer is still raiding heroically.

Hardcore Shooter is free on Steam right now – Who should try it?

Alexander Leitsch 6. February 2021 Reading time 2 minutes

This weekend you can try the shooter Insurgency: Sandstorm for free on Steam. It is considered particularly difficult and has built a solid community since its release in 2018. But who is it interesting for?

What kind of game is this? Insurgency: Sandstorm is a tactical first-person shooter set in a war-torn region of the Middle East.

The game emphasizes “slow” and “realistic” gameplay. Weapons are very deadly but also hard to control. Teamwork is also in the foreground.

The game offers various multiplayer modes but no single-player content or story. However, you can play against AI opponents to get used to the game.

Who is the shooter worth it for? If Call of Duty is too easy and Squad is too complicated, then Insurgency: Sandstorm is just right for you.

You don’t need to invest much time if you already have experience with shooters, but you will still need to get used to handling the weapons and the short “Time To Kill”.

Moreover, many reviews on Steam indicate that you should not buy the shooter if you only want to play solo. Multiplayer and communication with teammates are said to be crucial.

How long is the game free? You can play Insurgency: Sandstorm for free until Monday, February 8 at 8:59 AM on Steam. So you have all weekend to test it extensively.

If you then want to buy the game, you can get it at a 50% discount during the same period.

Hardcore approach and gameplay are praised, graphics criticized

What content does the game offer?

Various PvP modes like Firefight, Skirmish, or Team Deathmatch in 16v16
Coop modes where you can team up with 7 other players against the AI
A large arsenal of modern rifles, submachine guns, shotguns, and pistols
Individual loadouts
Cosmetic customizations for characters

What do the reviews on Steam say? In January, there were an average of 2,800 players online on Steam, peaking at just over 4,500. Users rated Insurgency: Sandstorm as 85% positive in the last 30 days, with 1,582 reviews submitted.

Almost all users praise the good gameplay, the voice acting, and the high difficulty. Reports indicate that grind only exists if you want to reach the top of the leaderboard.
Criticism is directed at the somewhat outdated graphics, which reportedly have frequent clipping errors. The limited number of maps and modes are also criticized despite regular updates.
Opinions are divided on performance and bugs. Some criticize them, while others report no issues.
Additionally, there have been recent changes that have shifted the game away from its hardcore approach towards coop vs. AI gameplay, which not everyone appreciated.

World of Tanks comes free to Steam – Who is this action MMO for?

Florian Franck 6. February 2021 Reading time 3 minutes

Coming this year, the action MMO World of Tanks will be released on Steam. The free-to-play title featuring over 600 armored vehicles from 11 nations aims to reach new players with the Steam version.

World of Tanks is celebrating its eleventh birthday in 2021, and publisher Wargaming is using this occasion for a release on Valve’s Steam platform. The Steam product page lists the release date as 2021, but there is currently no exact release date.

Who is the action MMO worth it for? The Steam version of World of Tanks is exclusively aimed at new players. Those who already play WoT via the Wargaming Launcher can continue to use it. There will be no synchronization between the two platforms.

If you like historical tracked vehicles from the mid-20th century, you should take a closer look at World of Tanks. Players who have already played World of Warships or World of Warplanes on Steam will find a welcome change with the tank battles.

As part of the digital Gamescom 2020, MeinMMO was able to win an interview with the CEO of Wargaming for a “World of Tanks” interview. In this interview, you will learn why he, as the boss, receives the “hate” when something goes wrong and how World of Tanks came into being.

What to expect in World of Tanks

What tank classes are there? The tanks are divided into five unique vehicle classes, which compete against each other in a balanced manner on the virtual battlefield. The two teams can choose between tank destroyers, artillery, light, medium, and heavy tanks.

What tanks are available? Currently, over 600 tanks are available in World of Tanks. Many of them come from the history of the 20th century.

The British tanks include the famous Churchill VII, which advanced on the battlefield against the German Tiger, which can also be driven in World of Tanks.

The American forces are represented by 99 vehicles in World of Tanks. Their flagship is the Sherman tank, which had a significant advantage at the time due to its vertically stabilized cannon.

With 135 vehicles, the USSR currently offers the largest selection in the game. One of the most famous tanks of the former Soviet Union, the T-34, is also included in the game.

In addition to the three major powers of World War II, players can position armored vehicles from France, Czechoslovakia, China, Japan, Sweden, Poland, and Italy on the virtual battlefield.

Are all tanks free in the game? The majority of armored vehicles are already included in free-to-play or can be unlocked. Additionally, there is the possibility to acquire premium models in the real money shop.

If you want to acquire a specific tank, you should be patient, as there are often special offers and discounts on certain tanks and packages in the Wargaming shop.

What you still need to know about the Steam launch of World of Tanks

We have compiled all important information about the Steam launch for you here in a compact format.

When will World of Tanks be released on Steam? There is already a shop page for World of Tanks on Steam. However, the release currently only states the year 2021. The developers have not yet announced an exact date for the Steam release.

Can you play with non-Steam players? Yes, there is supposed to be full cross-launcher support. This is already the case with World of Warships, which is also offered by Wargaming on Steam and in its own launcher.

Will the Steam version include special features? There are supposed to be no feature differences between the two versions. Updates for the Steam version are also expected to be released simultaneously with those for the Wargaming client.

Do I have to create an account with Wargaming? The account will be automatically created when starting the Steam version of World of Tanks. Registration on the Wargaming website will not be necessary.

Our colleagues from GameStar tested World of Tanks after the release of version 1.0 and found: World of Tanks is (almost) a new game.

New features for World of Tanks are in the works

With the announcement that World of Tanks will be released on Steam in 2021, Wargaming has announced new tests in the sandbox mode. The sandbox is a test environment in World of Tanks where players can test new features in advance. In February and March 2021, players can test changes to HE shells, crew members, and artillery. These features are explained in more detail in the recently released YouTube video.

Final Fantasy XIV divides Patch 5.5 into two updates – Here’s what’s included

Alexander Leitsch 6. February 2021 Reading time 2 minutes

Final Fantasy XIV has released new details about the upcoming Patch 5.5 – Death until Dawn – which is set to be released in two parts and transition into the upcoming expansion Endwalker.

What’s in Patch 5.5? Following the announcement of the new expansion Endwalker, Naoki Yoshida also revealed details about the new update. The major innovations of the update are:

A new story and its associated dungeon Palgth’an
The conclusion of the story Sorrow of Werlyt
The third part of the Nier Automata raid for 24 players

When will Patch 5.5 be released? The new update will be split into two parts. The first update will be released on April 13 alongside the open beta for the PS5 version of the MMORPG.

The second part is expected to be released at the end of May after the fan festival. The festival will take place on May 15 and 16 and is expected to bring new information about Endwalker.

Story from 5.5 aims to resolve dilemmas and lead into the expansion

What to expect in the story: With the new update, a quest line for the main scenario will be introduced that is linked to the expansion Endwalker. Officially, it was stated that this quest line will resolve ongoing dilemmas while simultaneously opening up the new narrative arc.

Part of this story is the dungeon Palgth’an. It will support the Trust system, allowing you to take NPCs with you. However, specific details about the dungeon and the story were not shared. Yoshida merely mentioned that players will be familiar with the location.

At the same time, the final chapter of the battle for Werlyt is set to be released with Patch 5.5.

What else does the patch bring? In addition to the story and the third part of the raid, some smaller innovations and adjustments are planned:

There will be job adjustments with Patch 5.5, which have not been further elaborated on.
New armor and rewards for PvP are planned.
There will be a new unreal trial.
There will be adjustments for craftsmen, who will receive new challenging expert recipes.
Collectors will be able to display collection points directly on the map via the handbook.

Just a few days ago, Patch 5.45 was released in FFXIV. It raised the level of the Blue Mage and made an adjustment to the weapons of the Resistance:

Anyone who starts with Destiny 2 now has no chance of grasping the story

Sven Galitzki 6. February 2021 Reading time 5 minutes

Destiny 2 has recently made it easier for new players to get started. However, since then, it has become almost impossible for freshly minted Guardians to understand the extensive overall story of the game with its many details and threads.

Not long in the game? This could become problematic: The 13th Season of Destiny 2 is on the horizon. As part of the seasonal story, the Cabal Empress Caiatl appears to be a new, powerful enemy in the game.

But who is this mysterious Cabal Warlord?
How does she fit into the setting?
What was so important about Cayde-6 and who is he anyway?
Or the Wanderer? Or Ikora – the nice lady who just stands in the Tower and never does or says anything?
What has the guy named Crow done that is so bad?

While long-time Destiny players still manage to keep at least a rough overview, such details can be quite hard to grasp for new Guardians who have just recently started with Destiny 2 or are about to begin.

Even though Bungie has specially given the game a revamped beginning for freshly minted Guardians, many story branches, important connections, and whole fates are now harder to follow for newcomers than they have ever been before.

Overall story hard to understand for newcomers – Why is that?

That is different: With the release of the latest expansion “Beyond Light” and the start of Season 12, Destiny 2 brought new content to the game, and the story was finally pushed forward in a more substantial way.

However, according to Bungie, Destiny 2 cannot grow indefinitely, and so, alongside the release of new content in November 2020, many contents from the game were vaulted – into the so-called Destiny Content Vault. Among them were:

the entire campaign from the base game
content from the first two DLCs “Curse of Osiris” and “Warmind”
numerous locations along with their respective content and activities – including quests, stories, and some characters

What is the problem? The issue is that with the removal of many contents, important storylines have been cut or whole pillars have essentially disappeared from the game. As a result, the overall picture is now hard to grasp – at least in its full complexity.

Thus, the campaign of the base game introduced new Guardians to the world as well as many important events and characters. Without this foundation, it is hard to understand why, for example, the death of Cayde-6 had such significance and why the Crow, meaning Uldren, is now experiencing such a harsh fate. Or who the Emperor Calus was, who is closely connected to the main antagonist of the new Season 13. Or what event ultimately brought the Fleet of Darkness to us.

Yes, this knowledge is not important for everyone, many find the game enjoyable even without deeper knowledge of the background. And this knowledge is not completely lost. You can always check out YouTube for good and compact story summaries.

That is a shame: The story has never been considered Destiny’s strong point – at least not in the game itself. However, Bungie has been working over the years to better tell the story in-game, to fill in important story gaps, and to finally answer open questions from the last years – and this has also worked better recently, especially in Beyond Light.

However, with the vaulting of content, this old problem is resurfacing for new players. Bungie has created a huge world with great stories, but some of these stories are now hardly comprehensible for new Guardians – at least not in their full glory, not in their full extent. And that also makes it harder to spark interest in new stories, which often build on old events.

This was supposed to improve the situation

The entry for new players was already made more difficult and confusing with the transition to Free-to-Play. At that time, the Free-to-Play version Destiny 2: New Light still offered a very large scope, but there was no red thread to guide new players through the playable contents in the correct order.

Therefore, Bungie has revamped the onboarding in the game and given Destiny 2 a new beginning. After all, with the base campaign, almost the entire introduction to Destiny 2 has been removed.

And yes, he does lead new players into the game much better now – at least mechanically.

There is a noticeable red thread that gradually introduces newcomers to the principles of being a Guardian and presents the most important mechanics of Destiny 2.
There is also a good, compact introduction story-wise – however, it is very rudimentary and practically hardly goes beyond a somewhat inflated good versus evil.

Story-wise, Destiny 2 is now a patchwork for newcomers, and in many places, it is hard to know exactly what one is fighting against – one just does it for the loot.

That’s why there’s hope: Even though much content has now fallen away – the new content since Beyond Light relies on a much more direct story. Bungie integrates much of the story via cutscenes or dialogues during seasonal quests directly into the game. At least the rough overarching plot established in 2020, which then leads to 2022 in the DLC Lightfall, should also be easily understandable for new Guardians.

We can hope that they will pick up the old, unfortunately somewhat convoluted story strands again and finally connect their now loose ends or branches into a coherent thread. Whether this approach will succeed will be seen first in part in Season 13, when we (hopefully) learn more about the motivations of the Cabal, the daughter of Emperor Calus, and the Darkness.

If this connection is well done, it could very well help to close the knowledge gaps of new Guardians and make the overall picture understandable – at least for this story strand.

What do you think? Do you generally switch off when it comes to the Destiny story, or would you like to know why and whom you are actually shooting at? How do fresh players see it? Does the game make it too difficult for you to understand the big story surrounding Destiny?

Voice actress of Genshin Impact gets harassed after her voice was modified

Irina Moritz 6. February 2021 Reading time 2 minutes

The voice of the character Barbara from Genshin Impact has received an adjustment. However, this was not well received by many fans, leading them to harass the voice actress.

This is what happened: Since February 3rd, Genshin Impact has had Update 1.3 active. It brought fresh content like the new character Xiao, the photo event, and the buff of the character Zhongli.

However, there was a change that was not well received by a part of the fans. The healer character Barbara has a different voice in the English version of Genshin Impact.

Laura Stahl remains the voice actress, but she received different directive instructions during the recordings. Therefore, her voice for Barbara sounds different than what fans were used to.

“Like a grandma at Bingo night”

These are reactions on reddit: In several large reddit threads, the change in Barbara’s voice was discussed in detail. In one thread (9284 Upvotes), the user angrybob16 made a video comparing the two versions of the voice side by side.

Many of the comments in the thread expressed that they do not like the new change. They miss the lively and cute way of the old voice of Barbara and feel that she now sounds tired and drained.

You don’t realize how much you’ll miss something until it’s gone.
reddit user jare l l108 (4093 Upvotes)

No! My Barbara!
The voice of the old Barbara is rough, but energetic, and I find that it’s the rough voice that makes her so charming […]
The new Barbara is just a typical quiet Moe anime girl. It’s just… unremarkable? Boring? […]
reddit user Nameless497 (1067 Upvotes)

One of the players addressed the developer miHoYo in his thread and even compared Barbara’s new voice to “a grandma at Bingo night.”

The voice actress speaks out on Twitter

This is what the voice actress says: After the change, voice actress Laura Stahl spoke out on Twitter. In a tweet, she asked fans to leave her alone, as she apparently received many requests for her to revert the voice change.

She wrote:

I can’t ask them [miHoYo] to change it [the voice] back.
I don’t know why the change was made. And if I had known, I couldn’t have revealed it.
Please just enjoy the game and stop asking me.
Thank you.

While Stahl did not say what kind of messages she received from the upset fans. So whether there were insults or even death threats, as was the case with the actor of Spider-Man. However, there were obviously enough messages that she felt compelled to release an official statement regarding this.

Subsequently, there was also a call in the official Genshin Impact reddit forum for players not to harass the voice actress. Another part of the players defended the actress and explained that she has no influence over the directive decisions and that it’s not her fault that the change occurred.

What do you think of the adjustment of Barbara’s voice? Which of the two versions do you like more? Or do you use a different language setting? Let us know in the comments.

Pokémon GO is likely to introduce 3 new methods to acquire XL candies soon

Noah Struthoff 6. February 2021 Reading time 2 minutes

Data miners have found indications of 3 new methods to obtain the rare XL candies in the code of Pokémon GO. We will show you the findings.

What has been discovered: The data miners from Pokeminers have once again searched the code of Pokémon GO and shared their info on reddit. They have come across new information regarding the XL candies. These XL candies can be obtained starting from level 40 and allow you to further level up monsters from level 40 onwards.

So far, the candies are quite rare, and many trainers wish for more opportunities to obtain them. This wish may soon be fulfilled.

Changes may soon happen regarding XL candies

Earn XL candies through your buddy: The first new method revolves around your buddy Pokémon. It seems that soon you will be able to earn XL candies by walking with your buddy. Previously, you would only receive a normal candy after walking a certain distance.

It remains to be seen whether you will receive an XL candy every time or if it will alternate with a normal candy.

XL candies through Pokémon Home: By sending Pokémon, you sometimes already receive an XL candy. However, other Pokémon platforms are likely to be added. The data miners have found indications that by sending Pokémon to Pokémon Home or Let’s GO, Pikachu/Eevee, you are supposed to receive one XL candy.

Whether this is guaranteed or just as random as with normal sending is unclear.

Guaranteed XL candies when catching: This might be the most interesting aspect for all trainers. Until now, you could only receive XL candies for catching Pokémon occasionally. However, files have been found indicating that there may also be guaranteed XL candies for caught Pokémon.

This may not be active for every monster, but some Pokémon could soon include this possibility. Monsters from raids would be suitable for this. This way, you would have realistic chances of obtaining enough XL candies from legendary Pokémon.

What you need to consider: These are just pieces of information from data miners. They have not yet been officially confirmed by Niantic. It may take a while for these 3 methods to be implemented in the game. They could also be completely discarded. Therefore, view this information with a pinch of skepticism.

However, officially confirmed by Niantic is the Community Day this Sunday. Here are the details:
