In Fortnite you need to find the Razor Crest in Season 5 Chapter 2. We will show you where to find it and what you can do with it.
What kind of task is this? On December 2, Fortnite launched its Season 5 of Chapter 2. Included are new tasks that you can now solve. Some of them you complete to upgrade the armor of the new Mandalorian skin.
Where is the location? You can find the Razor Crest near the new Colossal Coliseum. This location is part of the major map changes of the season and is now new on the map.
In the following graphic, you can see the exact location of the Razor Crest:
Finding the Razor Crest
Here’s where you need to search: You will find the spaceship directly southeast of the new Coliseum. If you run south from there, you can hardly miss it. It is stuck in a pile of sand.
How to complete the challenge: To complete the challenge, you only need to visit the spaceship. However, be careful, as many players have to solve the same task at the moment. We at MeinMMO have tried it, and the Razor Crest was always crowded with trigger-happy players.
Additionally, the Mandalorian himself is around this location and patrolling. So if you want to land there at the beginning of a round and have no weapons yet, you are at the mercy of the enemy. So be sure to look around thoroughly beforehand.
Once you have visited the spaceship, the challenge should be marked as completed for you. If not, it may take a few seconds for the completion to be credited.
On the video platform TikTok, there is a channel that showcases nasty cheats in Call of Duty: Warzone. This channel sometimes collects over 200,000 likes. However, the viewers are not very positive.
This is what it is about: Cheaters in CoD Warzone are a real thorn in the side of fair players. They can see players through walls or aim directly at the opponent and hit every shot.
However, there seem to be fans of the cheaters as well. On the video platform TikTok, the channel “Waldo41” showcases exactly this type of content. He presents his nasty hacks to his viewers with which he easily wins rounds. He earns thousands of likes in return.
Nasty cheater gets thousands of likes on TikTok
Here you can see the cheater in action: The video with the most likes (206,000) has over 2.3 million views and shows one of his nasty actions:
Overall, the cheater is outrageously successful with his videos. He has several clips with over a million views and thousands of likes.
Through his cheats, he gets opponents marked in red that he can hit and opponents behind walls marked in yellow. In addition, there is an aim bot that takes over the aiming for him.
How do viewers react to this? In the comments, there are mainly negative voices. Many viewers ask the clip creator if he is proud of his achievement or what he gets out of ruining the fun for other players.
However, there also seems to be a quiet support. Otherwise, his clips would not receive so many likes.
What about the cheaters in the Warzone? In the Warzone, there is always criticism that too many cheaters are present. However, the developers are also doing a lot about it. They regularly ban large numbers of accounts – in October, for example, it was 200,000 cheaters.
Nevertheless, the cheaters constantly cause a stir. This also includes the TikTok channel of this cheater. However, there are more actions. They even show themselves on the streaming platform Twitch:
In Pokémon GO today, on December 2, the Raid Hour with Kyurem begins. We will show you the best counters for your teams and all the information you need to know for the event.
What is a Raid Hour? This event takes place once a week, on Wednesday evenings, in Pokémon GO. All trainers can participate as long as they have Raid Passes.
For one hour, the number of legendary raids in the game is significantly increased. You will find a Level 5 raid at almost every gym.
This week is all about the Pokémon Kyurem, which dominates the gyms during the event time. We will show you the important information about the boss and the counters against Kyurem.
Raid Hour on December 2 – What you need to know
When does it start? As usual, the Raid Hour will start again at 6:00 PM local time. The eggs will appear earlier at the gyms, so they can hatch on time. The event will end again at 7:00 PM.
How many trainers do you need? You can defeat Kyurem with two players at Level 40 using strong counters. However, if you want to effectively use the Raid Hour, larger groups are recommended. This way, the boss goes down faster and you can use the time to start the next raid.
Which team will you bring to the Raid Hour with Kyurem today?

In Destiny 2, the exotic sniper rifle Cloudstrike suddenly shows that it is one of the strongest weapons in the game. Even the new raid boss stands no chance against it.
This is the Exo weapon: Destiny 2: Beyond Light brought Guardians over 10 new exotic toys. One of them is the sniper rifle “Cloudstrike”.
So far, the elegant Arc sniper has been dismissed for your special slot as “Yeah, pretty nice” or simply overlooked – powerful Exotics like the sword “The Complaint” or the rocket launcher “Eyes of Tomorrow” have taken all the attention.
However, after extensive testing, even Destiny professionals are surprised at how strong the new sniper truly is.
MeinMMO shows you that Cloudstrike leaves all other special weapons behind and how it performs in PvE as well as PvP. If you are into high damage numbers, you will find them in this article as well.
What makes Cloudstrike so special? The exotic sniper rifle belongs to the 140 family. It shoots very quickly, but deals slightly less damage per bullet. The stats are impressive, and the handling and stability support the fast playstyle excellently.
The Exotic magic occurs in the two special perks:
Deadly Polarity: Precision kills cause a lightning strike at the location of the recently defeated enemy.
Stormbringer: Rapid precision hits create a storm at your target.
Think of it this way: You take down a target and everything within about 5 meters gets shocked. The Arc damage from the lightning is not insignificant, but corresponds to that of a critical sniper shot.
Normally, sniper rifles are not used to take down masses of enemies, but only against single, distant targets. However, due to its very high area damage, Cloudstrike is an exception.
Every normal enemy falls immediately, and even opposing Guardians are defeated instantly at full health. The second exotic perk surprises even experienced professionals with its effect.
That’s why Cloudstrike suddenly is the strongest sniper in Beyond Light
How strong the storm really is: Shortly after the Exotic’s release, the first reviews were published.
The testers assumed that the perk “Stormbringer” would unleash a storm after 3 rapid precision hits.
This deals good damage, and after 3 more hits, the lightning strikes again.
Thus, there should be a storm 2 times per magazine.
This turned out to be completely wrong. Every 3 shots trigger the storm. There is no reset after 3 hits. If you hit all 7 shots in rapid succession, you trigger the lightning rain 5 times.
The well-known Destiny expert Ehroar from the Redeem clan immediately published a video correction. The clip is titled “Cloudstrike is WAY BETTER than I thought…” (via YouTube).
In it, it is also noted that the exotic sniper currently outperforms all other special weapons in terms of damage.
Are you a real sniper? Then you’ll also be interested in the other two new snipers from Beyond Light:
This is how high the damage is: It gets really exciting when looking at the storm’s damage. It corresponds to more than a critical hit: In total, the lightning deal 1.6 times the damage of a precision hit.
1 magazine corresponds to 157,400 damage
The DPS value is therefore 61,400
Even the best “normal” special weapons can’t keep up – slug shotguns reach just over 41,000 DPS
Other sniper rifles range at 30,000 DPS
Only the exotic “The Fourth Horseman” can deal more damage in a burst than special weapons. However, the weapon is then empty and not really suitable for boss fights as you have to get extremely close to the enemy.
Note: To get the maximum damage out of Cloudstrike, you should release your 7 shots quickly, but wait a tiny moment between the shots. Otherwise, the game sometimes doesn’t register all hits correctly and you could miss a storm.
Cloudstrike takes down even the new raid boss in just one phase
This is how good the exotic is in the new raid: Against the final boss of the Deep Stone Crypt, Cloudstrike shows how high the damage is in practice. Since Taniks usually flies at a certain distance, popular power weapons like swords can’t do much against him.
5 people with Cloudstrike combined with a Divinity are enough to take down the villain in just one phase. There is hardly anything special to consider.
By shooting with Divinity, a large sphere appears under the boss, onto which you shoot wildly with the sniper (keep in mind the minimal pause).
Every hit counts as enhanced and critical – so you easily trigger the storm.
Briefly stomp Taniks, reload.
If you visit a Titan bubble in between or stand in a well (ideally with Lorelei Splendor Helm), the kill in just one damage phase is achievable by any team.
This is what it looks like in the video:

Cloudstrike has its moments in PvP, is a lot of fun, but does not belong to the elite. In the Crucible, the exotic sniper rifle has to take quite a beating. This is due to 3 factors:
What hardly matters in PvE is very important for many Guardians in PvP: Cloudstrike has a zoom of 50. This means you zoom in very closely, but lose sight of your surroundings. Previously, snipers with 35-40 zoom were the meta.
Despite the good handling, the exotic lacks perks. “Snapshot Sights” or “Quickdraw”. Combined with the high zoom, this makes the weapon feel a bit sluggish compared to other snipers against the fast Guardians.
Due to the recent changes to 140 sniper rifles, you now need 3 body shots for the kill – 1 critical hit is enough, however. This means the weapon punishes missing precision very harshly.
Nevertheless, the PvP crack Aztecross says:
Cloudstrike gives you [in PvP] such fear standing next to a friend.
Because if you send an opponent to the virtual afterlife with a critical hit, the lightning strike will take out all Guardians in the vicinity. You can take out hand-holding enemies or stacked campers in a double or triple pack.
It’s an extremely rewarding feeling and looks pretty cool. You feel like Thor, sending down his punishing lightning from the sky.
What do you think about the new Exotic? Did you also underestimate Cloudstrike and can it hold its own against strong competition?
The available storage space on the PlayStation 5 is already tight for some, and the SSD can fill up quite quickly. The “Other” folder takes up over 100 GB of valuable storage. What is it all about?
Here’s the deal regarding free storage on the PS5: The PlayStation 5 has an ultra-fast SSD. This offers 825 GB of storage, but only 667 GB is available for games and apps. It will be a bit more if you delete the pre-installed Astro’s Playroom on all PS5s.
The mysterious storage category “Other” – What is it all about?
This has been discovered: As Kotaku reports, some have noticed over time that the data storage of the PS5 has a category or folder that takes up significant storage space. It’s called “Other” and is one of the 4 categories into which the storage of the PlayStation 5 is divided:
Games and Apps
Media Gallery
Saved Data
Other
What is the problem with this folder? While the first 3 categories have a clear purpose for the storage used, it is not really clear for “Other”.
In the description on the PS5 website, it states
This storage space is reserved for system data that is needed for games and apps to function properly. The size of the reserved storage depends on how your console is used.
This folder can get quite large. According to Kotaku’s own experiences, it ranged from 40 to more than 125 GB – sometimes without any apparent reason.
Recommended editorial content
At this point you will find external content from Twitter that complements the article.
I consent to external content being displayed to me. Personal data can be transmitted to third party platforms.
Read more about our privacy policy.
However, what the data stored in it is all about and what it is ultimately used for is currently not really clear.
We from MeinMMO checked as well – our “Other” folder is over 111 GB large.
This raises eyebrows: The size of this folder or category actually depends on how many and which games you have on your PS5. Generally speaking: When downloading new games, this folder increases. When you delete them, “Other” gets smaller.
However, the size changes are nonetheless quite confusing. The folder size should vary more significantly when downloading, deleting, or moving PS4 games than with PS5 titles. With PS4 titles, “Other” sometimes changed by more than 10 GB per game. However, with most PS5 games, according to Kotaku, it was never more than 1 GB.
Downloading 2 games – Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition and Sackboy: A Big Adventure even caused “Other” to shrink, while deleting 14 GB of recorded 4K videos caused the folder to grow by more than 4 GB – even though the intended category “Media Gallery” decreased by 14 GB as expected.
What caused even more confusion at Kotaku: After one of the editors had completely deleted all games and apps on his console, “Games and Apps” was only 1.1 GB large. Yet “Other” still claimed more than 16 GB of free storage. Another editor did the same, and “Other” was still 76 GB large for him.
In short: something is wrong here.
What does Sony say about this? According to its own words, Kotaku already requested a statement from Sony on November 16, 2020, but so far it has only said that they are looking into the matter.
How can you reduce “Other”? There aren’t really many options here. Essentially, the only effective way is to get an external hard drive or SSD and offload the PS4 games from the PS5 to it. The impact of PS5 games, however, with a GB here and another there can be neglected.
So while PS4 games may not fully benefit from the direct technical capabilities of the PS5, at least you have more space on your fast PS5 SSD.
In Fortnite: Battle Royale Season 5 Chapter 2 has begun! Accordingly, some changes have been made to the map. We at MeinMMO show you what’s new on the map and in the game world of Fortnite.
What’s happening in Fortnite: The start of Season 5 is finally here, and with it:
Some locations have now been added to the map, while others have received a styling and a name change. You can immediately see that a lot has changed on the map:
This is what the new map looks like in Season 5
4 new locations on the Fortnite map in Season 5
Apart from the Crystal Desert, which becomes immediately visible when looking at the map, there are 4 more locations that have been added.
Hunter’s Haven: This location is still known from Season 2 – Chapter 2 as a Shadow base. It was previously accessible. Later, the Sentinel graveyard was found there in Season 4.
Now, the spot has turned into a small “town,” with several buildings. This means: There are now many more opportunities to collect loot.
This is the new location Harvest’s Haven. Right behind it is the Crystal Desert and the Zero Point
Salty Towers: The location itself is not new but rather an old acquaintance that has been with us since the beginnings of Fortnite. So far, the town of Salty Springs hasn’t changed much, apart from a few adjustments for the respective season.
However, Salty Springs has now grown and is called Salty Towers. The town is larger and has merged with Tilted Towers, a location familiar from the early days. Even the tallest building from back then can be found here again.
Colossal Coliseum: In the center of the map, there is now a Crystal Desert, and there you will also find the new Coliseum. The large building is meant for players to compete against each other.
This new location will likely play a larger role in the story of Fortnite and the bounty quests. We will surely see what will develop from that.
Stealthy Stronghold: Here you will even find a whole jungle on the Fortnite map. Although it is surrounded by high walls, once you sneak in, you are surrounded by trees.
Interesting battles will surely arise here, as there are so many hiding spots. So if you ever wanted to visit a jungle, you should embark on your journey to Stealthy Stronghold.
What else has changed? In addition to the new large locations, there are other smaller changes on the map. Here’s what’s changed:
Risky Reels has now become a guarded location. There are now bots that will attack you as soon as they spot you.
Pleasant Park has returned after being taken over by Doctor Doom in the last season
The Battle Pass skin Mancake has also received a location dedicated to him
The new location seems to be the home of Mancake from the Battle Pass
Surely more locations will be discovered that have changed but are not immediately visible. We will update the article for you as more locations appear.
The map has undergone some changes with the start of Season 5. This is partly related to the bounty hunts. Other locations, such as the Crystal Desert, were ravaged following the live event. In the story of Fortnite, it got chaotic as the Zero Point was released again. If you want to see more about the story, you can find it in the trailer for Season 5.

The “Cyber Week” deals are currently running at MediaMarkt. We at MeinMMO have looked at gaming PCs and present you 5 devices on sale that you should check out.
This article presents you five PCs that are currently on sale at various retailers. We will take a look at what the devices can do and for whom they are recommended. First, we have a few tips you should consider when buying.
[toc]
Gaming PCs: Things to consider when buying
Here are some tips you should consider when buying a gaming PC. We will outline points regarding the graphics card, RAM, and processor. Keep these tips in mind if you want to buy a gaming PC or even build one yourself.
This is the graphics card you need for gaming
What you get for little money: Gaming PCs with a GTX 1650 fall into the lower performance range. If you are a casual gamer and do not care about the best graphics, you can look at these devices. The performance is more than enough for those who play Fortnite and games with low graphical requirements. If you want more, you will already be hitting your limits here.
For a slightly larger budget: With the GTX 1660 Ti and faster, you can play almost all modern titles on high settings. You will also benefit from higher FPS numbers – if your screen allows it.
Future-proof performance: The Super variants of the RTX 2060, RTX 2070, and RTX 2080 provide you with sufficient performance for maximum details and high frame rates. The gaming PCs here also cost accordingly more.
What else you should consider: Graphics cards should have at least 6 GB of video memory. 4 GB is too little in the long run. 8 GB is currently the best investment without a large additional cost.
What to consider regarding the processor
Minimum: Pure quad-core processors without virtual core doubling generally offer enough performance but may limit your graphics card in the long run. A gaming CPU should not have less than four cores.
Recommended: Recommended gaming processors have at least 4 cores and can process 8 threads thanks to virtual core doubling. Even better are processors with 6 cores for 12 threads. An example would be the Ryzen 5 3600, which represents a typical mid-range gaming CPU.
What to stay away from: In general, you should not buy gaming PCs that use outdated Intel architecture up to the 7000 series or AMD FX processors. While they offer enough performance, they rely on old chipsets and outdated RAM, where replacement parts are now difficult to obtain. However, these should not be found in modern gaming pre-built PCs.
What else you should consider: With the Ryzen 5000, AMD released a CPU in mid-November that can easily compete with Intel.
If you mainly game in WQHD or UHD, the graphics card is significantly more relevant than your processor.
This much RAM should be in the gaming PC
Minimum limit: 8 GB is already tight for a modern PC system. If you want to play with the computer, you should buy a PC with 16 GB or plan a budget to upgrade the RAM. Motherboards in modern gaming PCs usually have no problem with this.
Recommended: 16 GB of RAM is now the minimum if you want to game regularly. More is certainly not wrong. In the long run, you should aim for 16 GB or more of RAM.
Future-proof: If you want to be prepared for the future, you should aim for at least 32 GB of RAM.
HP Pavilion Gaming TG01-1600ng
What the device offers: The gaming PC from HP features a modern Intel processor with the i5-10400F. The PC also comes with 16 GB of RAM and a GeForce GTX 1660 Ti: This is fast enough for Full HD with maximum details and has reserves for WQHD. A downside is the video memory. It is only 6 GB large, which could become tight in the long run.
Who is the device suitable for? If you mainly want to game in Full HD or are also generally interested in WQHD with lower details, then you should take a look at this PC. If you want to game in WQHD in the long run, you should look for a PC with a stronger graphics card.

Data miners have found images in the data of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War that reveal a lot about the content of Season 1. MeinMMO summarizes the new information and shows what is likely to be coming to the game on December 10th.
What happened? On the night of December 1st to 2nd, data miners released many images from the data of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, which probably provide a good insight into the upcoming content. Particularly, the Twitter account “@BlackOpsLeaks” provided a lot of information about the supposed content of the first season.
MeinMMO has looked at the images and gathered the information for you.
“Rebirth Island” is likely an updated version of a DLC map from Warzone’s predecessor “Blackout,” the battle royale from Black Ops 4. It is said to be slightly larger than the original but generally smaller than the current Warzone map “Verdansk.”
What’s new with Nuketown? The classic map was added to the game on November 24th as the first new map after release and will likely look a bit different over the holidays:
“Raid” is a well-known map set on a large estate and has already been available in Black Ops 2 and Black Ops 4. With “Mall,” a completely new map is coming to the game, which can probably already be seen on the roadmap (image with “New Multiplayer Maps & Modes”).
What’s new with the new weapons? In the data, skins for two weapons that are not yet part of the arsenal in Cold War were found. A skin for a submachine gun that resembles the “MAC 11” from CoD 4 and Black Ops 1, as well as a skin for the assault rifle Groza. The data suggest that these two guns are from the Battle Pass:
The assault rifle was already part of the speculations, as players believe they have identified the Groza on the roadmap. The second weapon, however, was previously thought to be the Striker Shotgun, with speculation that the operator Adler holds it on the roadmap. However, the shotgun may come as a third weapon. In Modern Warfare, the “Season Reloaded” updates often introduced a third weapon that you could unlock through a challenge.
What’s new with the Gunfight mode? The exciting 2v2 gunfights are returning with Cold War and have already been announced for the first season. Now the maps are also known:
Four completely new maps tailored for the small mode are likely to be introduced.
What’s new with the Dropkick mode? A few days ago, the first information about the Dropkick mode leaked when the loading screen for the squad mode showed information about it (GamePro reported). Now there is supposedly an image of the mode:
The loading screen suggested: “If you die while your team holds the objective, you cannot respawn until the bearer is eliminated.” It could be a mode where you have to deliver a package to a mission objective before your team is completely wiped out. If you don’t manage that, the other team might have a chance to secure the objective and bring it to the mission site. However, how the mode ultimately looks is still not entirely clear.
What is the starter pack for Season 1? Just like Warzone, Cold War is also likely to offer a budget starter pack that allows you to secure some cosmetics and CoD points:
CoD Points
Adler Skin
Level skip for the Battle Pass
Emblem
Calling card
The details of the package are not yet known. If it is structured similarly to the Warzone package, it will also cost around 5 euros and provide you with 500 CoD Points in addition to the cosmetics.
What is the Combat Pack for PlayStation? In the months since the release of Warzone, PlayStation players have been able to claim free skin bundles for Warzone from time to time. For all players with PlayStation Plus, this seems to be the case again in the “Cold War” era:
However, it is still unclear whether it will work like before. The image shows an operator skin, a weapon blueprint, and a watch for Warzone. But the picture lacks any hints about PlayStation.
What’s new with the Battle Pass? The images for the contents of the Battle Pass are currently not so easy to find on Twitter. One image shows 7 operator skins and 6 weapon blueprints, which are likely to be the highlights of the items from the Battle Pass of Season 1. You can see an image with 3 of the skins here:
Particularly, one operator stands out in the image with the 7 skins, who is not yet available. The character is likely named “Stitch” and comes into play with a mask. In the Battle Pass, he wears a face shield that resembles Hannibal Lecter’s muzzle from the Hannibal films.
What about other bundles? Additionally, the leak showed a lot of images of bundles that will likely come to the game soon:
The first season is exciting for CoD players not only because of its content. With the launch on December 10th, Warzone, CoD MW & Cold War will merge and then share a progress system. Additionally, there should be a large influx of new weapons in the battle royale, taken from Cold War. It will be interesting to see how all of this works together.

The English retailer Box has introduced a new method for anyone who wants to order the Xbox Series X in December. It will be decided by a drawing.
The availability of the new consoles Xbox Series X and PS5 is currently the big topic in gaming. Many people are waiting for online retailers to finally receive more stock. One such retailer is Box.co.uk, who plan to use a different method for their upcoming sales waves in December.
Here’s how the sale at Box will work: On their online site, Box announced that new allocations of the Xbox Series X will be available on December 7 and 14.
To have a chance at the coveted console, buyers must register in advance. They need to provide the following information:
Email address
full name
gender

The registrations will then be collected by the retailer and entered into a drawing. Those buyers who are drawn will receive an invitation to purchase the Xbox Series X. This is intended to ensure more fairness in the sale.
Box did not specify in the statement on their site how many new consoles they will actually receive. Therefore, it should be assumed that certainly not all potential buyers will have a chance at an Xbox Series X.
However, the drawing will take place well before Christmas so that the consoles can end up under the Christmas trees of the lucky winners.
What is the point? During the previous sales waves of the new consoles Xbox Series X and PS5, there were regular instances where the retailer sites could not handle the rush of buyers. Even the giant Amazon crashed.
A lottery for console purchases, for which one must register in advance, would certainly prevent overloads on Box’s servers. Buyers also won’t have to be at their PCs at a specific time to spam F5 and hope to get through.
However, whether this will be a good measure against bot buyers is hard to predict, as they can still register with multiple accounts for the lottery.
Is this still being used anywhere else? The method Box is applying in the case of new consoles is not uncommon. In Japan, for example, concert tickets are often distributed through a lottery system. Concerts by certain artists or idols are so popular that tickets sell out just as quickly as the new consoles do now. But also popular fan items or other types of events are sold via lotteries. This included, for example, the tickets to the Fan Festival of Final Fantasy XIV in 2016.
The situation is similar for the PS5. The third sales wave of the Sony console caused online shops of various wholesalers to crash.
However, there are still quite a few units of both next-gen consoles available on eBay. They are being resold by groups of bot users at extremely high prices, profiting from the scarcity of goods and the extremely high demand:
The prices for such consoles on eBay go up to 2,500 €, which has angered some fans.
Do you find Box.co.uk’s system fair? Would you like to see it with German retailers as well? Or is it nonsense and will not prevent bot buyers from grabbing up huge quantities of consoles again?

The big live event marking the end of Season 4 on Fortnite was streamed on over 132,000 channels on Twitch. However, Twitch later made a recommendation: People should rather not take risks and delete all clips and videos of the event. Because the clips could contain copyright violations, leading to a DMCA strike and, in the worst case, a Twitch ban.
For the event, Fortnite reached a high peak on Twitch. According to the site Twitchtracker , at the peak of the live event, 132,973 channels were live on Twitch, streaming Fortnite. This is the highest value ever recorded. The previous record was set in June 2020 – when the “Doomsday Event” happened.
Consider deleting all clips and videos to avoid risks
This is what Twitch recommended to the streamers: After the event, Twitch support reached out via Twitter
“If you streamed the Fortnite event “Nexus War” and want to be cautious about risking a copyright strike for the music during the event, consider exporting/downloading the videos and clips and then deleting everything.”

Twitch referred to its own FAQ regarding these copyright strikes. There, it is stated that “repeat offenders” will be banned from Twitch, meaning people who have violated copyright multiple times.
This is the reaction: Twitch’s recommendation seems a bit odd to the streamers.
A user asks: “Are you saying it’s okay to stream copyrighted music and then just delete the evidence? You’re sending mixed signals here.” (via twitter)
Another user demands: “You as a company need to come up with a solution. Sometimes you bite off more than you can chew and need to find a solution. Just providing a platform is not enough. I love you guys, but you need to step up your game.” (via twitter)
A third user says: “So you’re telling me that because a game I’m playing uses copyrighted music at its own event, I could still get a copyright strike? Come on… that’s quite something.” (via twitter)
Why Twitch is so important for gaming – Listen to it in the MeinMMO podcast
Find out here the impact streaming and Twitch have on gaming, the industry, and us as players.
This is what’s behind it: Currently, Twitch is in a difficult position. During the pandemic, Twitch has come into the spotlight of the music industry. Suddenly, “copyrighted music on Twitch” is a major topic.
As long as the problem is not definitively resolved, Twitch is passing the music industry’s pressure onto the streamers. The music industry is urging Twitch to find a solution, which apparently involves compensating musicians appropriately and sharing in the revenue.
The music industry wants to participate in the tremendous growth of Twitch. But Twitch seems to have not yet found a solution.
The Twitch CEO: Emmet Shear.
The music industry has urged Twitch in an open letter to finally resolve the issues with copyrighted music. In this letter, the dramatic situation of musicians and artists during the Corona pandemic was emphasized:
Book of Travels is a very interesting online role-playing game that takes a new approach. You can see how it works based on almost 35 minutes of gameplay from an early version.
You explore a beautiful game world with your hero, the graphics of which resemble a painting. You encounter NPCs who have tasks for you, and there are even battles against nasty creatures that dwell in the game world. Trading is also important. You can now see how it works with a new gameplay video that shows nearly 35 minutes from the pre-early-access version:

What is special about the game? Book of Travels aims to turn the principle of online role-playing games slightly on its head. Because here it is not about being the mighty hero in a world inhabited by thousands of other powerful heroes. You are an adventurer making your way and helping the inhabitants here and there.
For example, in a city, there was a murder of a mythical creature, and you need to solve the mystery behind this situation, which has repercussions on the political situation in the city. The situation is not so easy to master, as your hero can only communicate through emotes.
Our world is a cheerful world. It is not plagued by an evil monster or an evil king. It does not have this cliché, dark fantasy narrative where everything goes to hell, and the players are at the center trying to fix everything.
Jakob Tuchten, Creative Director of Book of Travels
All of this proceeds quite slowly and calmly, as you can see in the video. Therefore, Book of Travels feels more like a game that you play to unwind a bit, rather than to experience hectic battles in action-packed adventures. The graphics play a significant role. Every scene feels as if you are looking at a painting in a museum, wanting to absorb every detail.
The online RPG Book of Travels looks like a painting.
Additionally, there is the already mentioned aspect that there are hardly any fellow players in the world and you spend most of your time traveling alone.
There are indeed battles, but even these are something special. You do not encounter an enemy every few seconds. Instead, during the confrontations, you must make important and tactical decisions.
We have the opportunity to provide battles that are actually meaningful. When a fight breaks out, it is associated with risks and has dramatic effects on the character. We debated for a long time whether combat should be a part of the world, but we want to convey the tranquility or peace of the world, and that had to be emphasized by also having dangers right at the roadside.
Jakob Tuchten, Creative Director of Book of Travels
When is the game coming out? The release of the online role-playing game Book of Travels is currently planned for the second quarter of 2021 via Steam. Currently, the game is still in a pre-early-access status.
In the coming months, the developers want to reveal more details about the TMO and show you more gameplay. This way, you should get a better insight into the game, which differs greatly from classic MMORPGs. But perhaps this will bring fresh air to the genre.

Call of Duty: Warzone offers a massive variety of weapons with countless possible setups, with certain models and compositions standing out particularly. We will show you here firearms and their configurations that, according to a statistic, are currently especially popular among players.
What is the statistic about? The data for the ranking comes from the popular site among many fans “lootshare.io“. There are over 25,000 players registered on the site who have saved and shared their loadouts.
Although Warzone has significantly more players, the data should provide a good cross-section of the player base and also corresponds to our personal experiences in Call of Duty’s Battle Royale.
The website displays the most popular weapons from the past 30 days, so it also takes into account the preferences and trends from the latest updates.
At the beginning of December, we present to you the 5 most popular firearms of the last 30 days and show the trendiest setups.
1. Kilo 141
Rank 1 goes to the popular all-rounder Kilo 141. This assault rifle slowly rose to become one of the best weapons for Battle Royale since the release of Warzone. It is considered a true laser, meaning it has virtually no recoil in the right configuration and is easy to control.
With the following setup, the Kilo is currently the most played:
Muzzle: Suppressor (Monolith)
Barrel: Singuard Arms 19.8″ Hitter
Scope: VLK 3.0x Sight
Under-barrel: Command Grip
Ammo: 60-round magazine
2. MP5
Rank 2 goes to the strong submachine gun, which can still hold its own against most other weapons at short range despite numerous nerfs. Many players still rely on the MP5 in Warzone – currently most liked with the following setup.
Barrel: Suppressor (integrated, Monolith)
Stock: FTAC Folding
Under-barrel: Merc Foregrip
Ammo: 45-round magazine
Grip: Stippled Grip Tape
3. Grau 5.56
This assault rifle was at the top of the food chain in Warzone for a long time. However, even after nerfs, it is still a very reliable and popular killing instrument in Warzone. According to the data, it is currently most played with the following setup:
Muzzle: Suppressor (Monolith)
Barrel: Tempus 26.4″ Archangel
Laser: Tactical Laser
Under-barrel: Commando Grip
Ammo: 60-round magazine
4. Kar98k
This DMR is often played as a sniper substitute and is a real hit at long distances in Warzone. The weapon is very effective at range, but does not play as sluggishly as a full-fledged sniper rifle. Currently, the following setup is in vogue:
Muzzle: Suppressor (Monolith)
Barrel: Singuard Custom 27.6″
Laser: Tactical Laser
Scope: Sniper Scope
Stock: FTAC Sport Com
5. CR-56 AMAX
Even the last place among the top 5 shows: Assault rifles are likely the most popular weapon category for battles in Warzone. And the AMAX is still among the best and most popular of its kind. It is played by many in the following configuration:
What is currently happening in Warzone? Currently, the last common Season 6 with CoD Modern Warfare is still running in Warzone. But soon there will be some changes waiting for you.
Until then, however, you can rely on the tried-and-true weapon repertoire in the Battle Royale – for example, on the weapons presented here with their setups.

In Pokémon GO the first event around Generation 6 has started. It brings new spawns, quests, and raids. We provide you with an overview of the event.
How long does the event last? The event around Generation 6 started on December 2 at 10:00 AM local time. It runs until December 8 at 10:00 PM. You have about a week to take advantage of the bonuses.
Due to the event, the first Pokémon of Generation 6 appear in the wild. Additionally, there are other bonuses related to raids and field research.
Quests and Spawns for the Gen-6 Event
These are the new field research: A total of 3 new quests are waiting for you. These include:
Catch 3 Normal-type Pokémon
Reward: Encounter with a Scoppel
Catch 5 Flying-type Pokémon
Reward: Encounter with a Dartiri
Catch 7 Fire-type Pokémon
Reward: Encounter with a Leufeo
All field research includes new Pokémon. So if you haven’t collected enough candies for them in the wild yet, you should complete the field research.
These spawns are available: In the wild, there are numerous new Pokémon from Gen 6. Especially common are Scoppel, Dartiri, and Leufeo. But also the 3 starters Igamaro, Fynx, and Froxy appear now and then. Additionally, eF-eM appears as a wild Pokémon.
You should especially track the starters. So keep an eye on your Nearby list to find the starter Pokémon.
Are there new Shinys? So far, no trainer has reported a new Shiny. So there is no surprise here. You need to focus on the new Pokémon in their normal form before going on a Shiny hunt.
These are the new bosses: Not only in the wild will you find new Pokémon. In the raids, Pokémon from Generation 6 also appear. We show you all the bosses. The Pokémon with a star can be Shiny:
Is the event worth it? Every trainer should take advantage of this event. After all, there are the first Pokémon from Generation 6, which will still be available afterwards but will certainly become rarer.
Unfortunately, there is nothing for Shiny hunters this time, but even these trainers should not miss out on the new Pokémon.
There is also new research for the event. We show you all the steps here:
With the patch for the second week in World of Warcraft: Shadowlands, a mechanic that has been in the game since Burning Crusade has been removed: the daily lockout for heroic dungeons. From now on, you can farm these instances as often as you like.
What is changing: With the hotfix on December 2, the daily locks for heroic dungeons in World of Warcraft will be removed. Since these dungeons were introduced in Burning Crusade 13 years ago, players have been able to visit a heroic dungeon intentionally only once per day and receive loot from it.
While it was later possible to theoretically see the dungeons multiple times a day, it was only after all available dungeons had been completed, and then a “random dungeon” was searched for through the group finder. But that could only happen randomly.
What does this mean for me? With this change, you can now farm specific gear that you are still missing. If you urgently need a weapon but have had no luck in heroic or mythic dungeons so far, you can now farm that one dungeon where the item drops.
As mythic dungeons can only be completed once per week until key stone dungeons appear, you can polish your gear again. This is particularly useful if you want to prepare for the raid.
Heroic dungeons are especially one of the ways to get the best gear at the start of the expansion if mythic dungeons do not work out.
What else is changing? Along with the change to heroic dungeons, some classes are receiving minor adjustments, primarily focused on bug fixes. Additionally, there are small changes to the covenants of Shadowlands, the dungeons themselves, some areas, and quests.
You can find the complete patch notes for the hotfix on Blizzard’s official website. Currently, they are only available in English.
What’s next? With the second week of Shadowlands, players can craft their first legendary items if they have the necessary materials. Additionally, the covenant campaign continues if you have gained enough reputation with your covenant.
Those looking forward to the release of Castle Nathria, the first raid of Shadowlands, and the first season for mythic key stone dungeons should use this week for preparation. Acquire missing gear and level up professions or alt characters if necessary. If you have options and aren’t sure what to play, you can find on MeinMMO the current DPS ranking with the strongest classes in Shadowlands.

In Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold Wara player started with an unusual controller. The streamer literally “rocked” the game with a guitar and even succeeded in multiplayer mode despite extreme disadvantages!
Unusual controllers are still very popular among some streamers. Players have already played games with potatoes. In the case of CoD Modern Warfare, a gamer played with a drum set. He even managed some crazy sniper kills with that.
Especially with the drummer, the streamer “The StevieP” probably thought: “I can do that too!”. But instead of connecting a drum set, he connected a guitar as a controller.
The guitar comes from the game “Rockband” and TheStevieP tried to play the zombie mode of CoD Cold War with it. Here’s how it worked.
Guitar Controller Prohibits Grenades and Reloading
This is how the guitar controller works: To play with the guitar, TheStevieP used the following setup:
[Forward] running is down on the “Strum Bar” [These are the “strings” of the Rockband controller], backward movement is up on the Strum Bar. To look around: Red is left, Yellow is right, Blue is up, Orange is down. And with Green, you shoot.
With this, TheStevieP can run, look around, and shoot. What he cannot do, among other things:
This is how the guitar gameplay against zombies went: The control options are quite limited, so TheStevieP played it safe and first took on a round of zombies. Mindless undead can also be taken down with a guitar.

The StevieP just ran around the horde of zombies and whacked them with the guitar as soon as he had a good position. When his weapon ran out of ammo, he automatically reloaded, which replaced the missing reload button.
Streamer kills enemies with guitar: At some point, however, TheStevieP wanted to test how his guitar skills would fare in a fight against real players in the multiplayer of CoD Cold War. He was aware that he had little chance in the wild battles of Cold War with his guitar setup, so he said beforehand:
If I get even one kill in multiplayer, I will laugh! The person I kill like this deserves to be laughed at!

As expected, TheStevieP took a beating in a multiplayer match on the Miami map. But then an enemy ran wild at him down a staircase and didn’t hit him. The streamer turned around, took a non-lethal hit, aimed, and with a press of the green button, he dealt a fatal blow to the opponent at close range.
“Yes, that’s how it’s done!”, the streamer exclaimed joyfully, laughing heartily at his success and the shame of his opponent, and was completely over the moon.
The action also delighted various fans on reddit, who rewarded the post with nearly 8,000 upvotes and over 300 comments.
If you’re not playing with a guitar or some other strange controller, we have a guide here that should noticeably improve your aim. The tips are based on the training program of CoD expert TheXclusiveAce, and you can find it here on MeinMMO.

Since the release of Update 8, players of the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online (PC, PS4, Xbox One) have reported crashes. Bethesda has now released a patch but has admitted that it cannot fix all crashes.
What is the problem? Since the release of Update 28, which came with the DLC Markarth, some players of the MMORPG ESO have reported sudden crashes during Trials and Dungeons. The game simply closes and returns players to the desktop. This happens in both the PC version and on PS4 and Xbox One.
The ESO Update 28, which was released with the DLC Markarth, brought crashes to the MMORPG.
The new ESO patch did not provide the hoped-for help
How did Zenimax Online respond? A patch has been released that was supposed to address this issue among others. The patch notes state:
One possible cause of crashes has been fixed, which occurred primarily in Trials and other situations with many effects.
A rare cause of crashes has been fixed, which could occur when many complex particle effects were created and destroyed simultaneously.
What is the current situation? Despite the patch, there are still reports that crashes continue to occur in Dungeons and Trials. The problem does not seem to be fully resolved yet.
What have the developers said now? A statement regarding the situation with the crashes was released on Twitter.

The team is aware that crashes may still occur. They are working hard to find the causes and resolve the issue.
What are the implications of this? A new patch for PC is planned for December 7 to fix these crashes. The console version of ESO will receive this fix on December 9.
The event “Celebrations of the Fearless” is not affected by this. It is still scheduled to start on December 3 at 4 PM.
The live event in Fortnite around the Marvel villain Galactus was a huge success on the streaming platform Twitch. For a short time, there were even crashes – presumably due to the large turnout.
This happened yesterday: At around 10:00 PM German time, Fortnite held a massive live event. Galactus, the World-Eater, attacked the Fortnite world and there was a war between the players and the villain. The Marvel superheroes also showed up, leading to a great battle.
However, the Marvel event likely attracted not only active Fortnite players. Hundreds of thousands of viewers watched the spectacle on Twitch with their favorite streamers.
Millions of viewers and issues on Twitch
The event was this successful on Twitch: A ton of streamers showcased the live event and numerous viewers joined. We provide you with the numbers at a glance (via sullygnome):
During the event, Fortnite had over 1.6 million live viewers on Twitch at times
Streamer TheGrefg had the most people on his channel with nearly 250,000 simultaneous viewers – next came NICKMERCS, who had nearly 90,000 viewers
In Germany, MontanaBlack also streamed the live event and had around 30,000 viewers at the same time
These were the problems on Twitch: By the end of the live event, there were some issues on Twitch. Viewers could not load certain streams or the descriptions of the streams were missing.
Twitch itself then spoke up on Twitter and confirmed issues. They said that the problems were known and that they were working on solutions. About an hour later, the disruptions were resolved.

Twitch itself did not confirm that the live event in Fortnite caused the issues. However, one can assume this, as within a few minutes, hundreds of thousands of fans flooded Twitch’s servers.
After the live event, it directly gets exciting in Fortnite. Season 5 is live, and there are the first trailers for it:
The Daybreak Game Company has faced many problems in recent years and has repeatedly had to lay off employees. Now the company has been sold to EG7. But what changes does this bring and what does it mean for the company’s MMORPGs?
What happened? The company Enad Global 7 from Sweden purchased Daybreak for 300 million dollars. With this acquisition, they now own one of the most important MMORPG developers in the West.
According to the associated press release, EG7 wants to strengthen itself with the acquisition of strong IPs and benefit from the existing communities. In addition, Daybreak is said to have stabilized significantly in revenue in recent months.
However, it is not known whether there will be changes to the games or layoffs as a result of the acquisition. The owner of Daybreak, Jason Epstein, stated that the acquisition is intended to strengthen Daybreak’s titles and improve the experience of their players.
One of Daybreak’s MMORPGs – DC Universe Online
Why is Daybreak so important? Daybreak includes games like EverQuest, EverQuest 2, DC Universe Online, Planetside 2, and H1Z1. Additionally, Daybreak acquired the developer Cold Iron Studios in 2020, which was founded by former developers of Neverwinter and Star Trek Online.
As a “third-party company,” they also assisted with the MMORPGs The Lord of the Rings Online and Dungeons & Dragons Online.
Thus, Daybreak is involved in many Western MMOs and MMORPGs. According to the press release, the company is said to have around 178 million registered players.
However, the success that the studio once had has now faded. In recent years, there have been ongoing problems and layoffs. This ultimately led to the acquisition.
As Sony Online Entertainment successful, under Daybreak in crisis
What is behind the company? Daybreak was originally founded under the name Sony Online Entertainment and aimed to develop strong competitors following the success of Ultima Online.
This led to the creation of MMORPGs such as EverQuest, Star Wars Galaxies, Vanguard: Saga of Heroes, and Free Realms.
However, Daybreak has faced several problems in recent years:
Also in 2015, John Smedley left the company. The MMO veteran had been part of SOE/Daybreak since EverQuest 1. He is now working on a new SciFi MMO for Amazon
EverQuest Next was considered a promising MMORPG. However, a release never took place.
Who is the new buyer? EG7 is a company that focuses on the development, publishing, and marketing of video games. They have already acted as a publisher for games like Overcooked 2 and Sniper Elite 3 and were involved in marketing campaigns for Destiny 2, Call of Duty, and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.
Recently, the company also acquired the Canadian developer Piranha Games, who developed Need for Speed: Shift, Duke Nukem Forever, and MechWarrior.
With Daybreak, several MMORPGs have come to the company. However, most of them are already older. Whether new games are being worked on is not currently known.
None of the currently most promising MMORPGs in development are from Daybreak:
In Fortnite: Battle Royale Update 15.00 has been released, marking the start of Season 5 Chapter 2. We show you the patch notes. It includes new features, many bounty hunters, and new locations!
What’s included in the new update 15.00: This update kicked off the new Season 5 and allows players to dive into a world of bounty hunters. As can already be seen in the trailer, there is a lot of chaos on the Fortnite map after Galactus attempted to absorb the “Zero Point”.
But what does this mean for gameplay and Fortnite players? We will show you what has changed in the game.
Now you are to hunt
What’s new now? Since the Zero Point has now been released again, various characters can escape from the Fortnite island. However, if you join Agent Jonesy, you can prevent the escape.
You can now team up with other bounty hunters from other universes, who were also featured in the Battle Pass trailer for Season 5. So choose the best ones. This way, you can participate in a battle that will create chaos and determine the future of the island.
Agent Jonesy and the best bounty hunters are coming
New locations on the map – Map changes
What’s new now? The map has also changed after the battle with Galactus and adapts to the bounty hunting theme. Among other things, you can now find several places that have different functions, such as:
The Colosseum, where you can engage in fights
A jungle
The Crystal Desert, where the Zero Point is also located
Players will immediately have a lot to explore on the map. Perhaps a new favorite landing spot will also quickly emerge.
The sand desert is new on the Fortnite map. Here the Zero Point seems to be active
Helping hand – Bounty hunting
What’s new now? You will now become hunters and have the obligation to help other characters. You will need to complete various missions and tasks in the unstable reality that revolve around bounty hunting. You can also recruit them for your team to better your chances.
If you do not wish to help, you can also challenge the characters to a fight. If you prove yourself, you will unlock various rewards.
What’s new now? Bounty hunting not only serves to help but can also earn you a reward. The characters accept a new currency: Bars. You can earn this by successfully completing bounty hunts, eliminating opponents, or finding hidden supplies on the island.
What’s new now? Not only new features and currencies have come with update 15.00. There are now also new weapons in the game. These give you a completely different gameplay experience. These weapons are new:
Dragon’s Breath Shotgun
Amban Sniper Rifle
Night Hawk
Throughout the season, characters from the unstable world will bring even more weapons into the game that have not been seen before.
The new weapons that players can expect in Season 5
Season 5 seems to bring some changes to Fortnite, with which players can actively collaborate with characters. The map also seems to have changed a lot, which is not surprising after the big battle against the even bigger Galactus.
