In Pokémon GO the GO Battle Night starts tonight, November 5th, along with the Flying Cup. This is also worthwhile for trainers who have played PvP less so far.
Now you can spend several hours in the PvP league today and benefit from improved rewards. Additionally, the Flying Cup takes place simultaneously, which requires special Pokémon from you.
To prepare you as best as possible for the Battle Night, we will show you the best Pokémon and more information about the event.
Schedule and best Pokémon of the GO Battle Night
This is how the GO Battle Night goes: The event starts today at 6:00 PM and runs until midnight. During this time, you can complete many battles in the PvP league.
In total, you can complete 20 battle sets. That’s 100 battles in total. If you finish your normal 5 battle sets of the day before the event starts, you can even conduct 125 battles.
Even for PvP beginners, the league is exciting tonight.
These rewards are available: This is where it gets exciting for PvP beginners. You will receive double the amount of Stardust when you win battles, finish battle sets, and rank up in the GO Battle League.
This is especially worthwhile if you haven’t done much in the league before. You will quickly rank up and also face relatively easy opponents at the beginning who don’t have much experience. The chances of winning are high, which allows you to farm a lot of Stardust.
Stardust is the most important resource in Pokémon GO, so you should take advantage of the PvP league at least tonight.
Additionally, during the event, you can evolve a Pidgeot and obtain the special move Gust. This makes Pidgeot more interesting in the PvP league.
This is the Flying Cup: As part of the GO Battle Night, the Flying Cup also takes place. This special cup revolves exclusively around Flying-type Pokémon. No other type is allowed. Additionally, you can only choose Pokémon that reach a maximum of 1500 CP.
These are the best Pokémon: The best Pokémon for the Flying Cup are often monsters that have not been used much before. It is important to choose Flying Pokémon that not only have Flying attacks but also ideally have a strong second type.
Here are some monsters to choose from:
Aerodactyl with Stone Edge, Ancient Power, and Rock Slide
Panzaeron with Steel Wing, Sky Attack, and Aerial Ace
Altaria with Fire Spin, Sky Attack, and Dragon Pulse
Mantax with Water Gun, Bubble Beam, and Ice Beam
Drifzepe in with Payload, Shadow Ball, and Ice Storm
Emolga with Thunder Shock, Thunderbolt, and Volt Switch
Togekiss with Charm, Ancient Power, and Air Slash
Articuno with Frost Breath, Ancient Power, and Ice Storm
Grypheldis with Taunt, Shadow Ball, and Leech Seed
Generally, you have a lot of options with Flying Pokémon and can rely on a variety of second types. This is exciting because you can easily surprise your opponent.
If you do not want to try the Flying Cup, you should check out our tier list for the PvP league. There we show you the best Pokémon:
The biggest MMORPG streamer on Twitch is Asmongold. He has received an attractive offer. He has been offered over $300,000 to showcase a game. He does not say which one. But fans suspect: It is the mobile game Raid: Shadow Legends. For them, the WoW streamer is apparently the ideal multiplier.
What kind of offer is that? Asmongold explained in a WoW stream how attractive it is to accept a “bounty” on Twitch. In these bounties, Twitch provides their streamers with suitable “sponsored streams”: Twitch acts as an intermediary when companies are looking for a suitable influencer to run advertising streams.
A sponsored stream usually goes like this:
A streamer plays a game that he probably wouldn’t normally play and highlights the good aspects of the game.
He must adhere to certain agreements that were made beforehand.
The streams are marked with “#Ad”
Asmongold says: These bounties would significantly increase once word gets out about how much money can be made.
As an example of how much money an influencer can make with advertising streams, he says: A company offered him over $300,000 to play a game for a day.
He has not accepted the offer – not yet. But he might do so.

Fans believe: Mysterious game is “Raid: Shadow Legends”
What game are we talking about? Asmongold does not name the game himself. However, many in the chat are shouting “Raid: Shadow Legends.”
It is a free-to-play mobile game for iOS, Android, and PC. It is a gacha game like the new Genshin Impact. Players collect and strengthen heroes. Even Wikipedia mentions: The game is criticized for its “aggressive monetization model.” Translated, that means it relies on pay-to-win and creates a high risk of addiction.
Raid: Shadow Legends is known for being omnipresent in commercials and seeking deals with influencers. In many YouTube videos that are actually about something else, the YouTuber suddenly says: People should definitely play Raid: Shadow Legends, it’s awesome.
As an MMORPG streamer, one can apparently get rich on Twitch
Why is Asmongold being offered so much? It makes sense that the $300,000 is offered specifically to Asmongold:
Asmongold is the biggest MMORPG streamer on Twitch. He has 1.7 million followers and streams to an average of 50,000 viewers. He represents WoW streams like hardly anyone else. Asmongold considers himself the ultimate “WoW Nerd”
MMORPG players seem to be the ideal target audience for mobile hero-collecting games: They fulfill the same needs as MMORPGs do. You grind for a long time, work your way up to goals, collect something, and improve your account daily.
Apparently, MMORPG players are valuable customers for mobile games: Asmongold has the reach and authenticity to connect with many of them. The calculation is likely that a game earns amount X with each new customer, and Asmongold offers the prospect of acquiring number Y of new customers, so the payment can be adjusted accordingly.
However, whether such a stream really works is another question. During a promotional stream for a new game, the streamer summit1g had a stream go out of control. The fans found Marvel’s Avengers simply lame.
Gacha games have become a big topic in mainstream gaming in recent weeks as Genshin Impact has made such waves. Because in the games, one can sink a lot of money.
A YouTuber recently said he spends so much money to keep viewers from becoming addicted and falling into the hole he once fell into:
In Destiny 2, players must part with an old memory starting November 10 in Beyond Light and have faith.
What will be deleted? MeinMMO recently reported that Destiny 2 will remove numerous items from the game with the release of Beyond Light. Many of these items are no longer useful in the new world of Beyond Light and are basically worthless baggage in Guardians’ inventories.
But one item on the list is useless yet anything but worthless: the “expired ramen soup coupon.”
That’s why the coupon is so valuable:The coupon is a memory of the deceased NPC Cayde-6. He has been considered and still is by many as the most beloved character in Destiny and loved eating noodles in the Tower’s ramen shop.
He was not a typical, shining hero or moralizer like Commander Zavala. Rather, he was a kind-hearted scoundrel as described in books – always ready with a quip and prepared for any misdeed.
Right at the start of the Forsaken expansion in 2018, the Hunter leader met his fate, and through the Forsaken story, we avenged Cayde. Players were then able to obtain the noodle coupon in a mini-quest.
The coupon could never be redeemed, players knew that, too. But they have proudly carried the emotionally charged item in their inventories for 2 years.
Players demand a new memorial for Cayde in Beyond Light
Many players are not happy that Bungie is deleting this coupon irrevocably on November 10. Therefore, the community is demanding through various channels that they should just be allowed to keep the coupon, as it is ultimately their inventory space that is occupied.
We also read such statements on MeinMMO: “Keep your hands off my coupon! Otherwise, I’ll throw celery at you!” from user Millerntorian (via MeinMMO).
A thread on reddit instead asks for them to give them another memento of Cayde and finds much support. After all, there’s only a small plaque on the floor in front of Zavala in the Tower that remembers the fallen hero, and everyone walks all over it.
Particularly often, the desire is expressed to immortalize Cayde and the ramen coupon as an emblem.
The community is also providing the design right away:
The never-expiring coupon as an emblem – Source: Twitter
This is what Bungie says about it: Destiny developer Bungie has not commented on whether an exception will be made for the coupon or whether players will receive another memento of Cayde.
The “creator” of the coupon has spoken up: Jonathan Chan wrote the lore text for the coupon and shares some trivia about the item on Twitter:
The text is written in such a way that it becomes clear that Cayde will not return.
He has hidden a small political message in the choice of words.
The coupon mentions pork for the first time in the Destiny universe – it is now in good company. The ghost of Uldren is called Pulled Pork.

Does the coupon also have emotional value for you, or can you not relate to non-game-relevant items at all? Do you think Bungie will relent and give Cayde the special status he has enjoyed among Guardians for years? Let us know in the comments.
The racial bonus of the Dwarves from World of Warcraft was nerfed in the first Shadowlands raid – immediately after a guild switched to the Alliance.
In the upcoming WoW expansion Shadowlands, the first raid takes place in Castle Nathria. This raid has some strong bleed effects that affect the players. Recently, we reported that the Russian professional guild Exorsus has switched to the Alliance. The reason was presumably a bonus that Dwarven players could obtain through their Stoneform – at least that was presumed. However, that very bonus has now been changed.
What happened? In the latest Shadowlands patch of the beta version, some debuffs in Castle Nathria were changed. They remain bleed effects but can no longer be cleansed by various cleansing effects such as the Dwarves’ Stoneform or the Kyrian’s potion. The damage of several abilities must now either be healed by healers or players must utilize specific mechanics of the fight.
Are Dwarves really that strong in Shadowlands?
This is what Exorsus says about the switch: In an interview with Raider.io, Alveona from Exorsus talked about the switch from Horde to Alliance. According to him, while the Dwarves’ Stoneform was a reason, it was by far not the only factor. Many other reasons played a role in why Exorsus switched to the Alliance. These are:
A big bonus in the war mode, as the Alliance is mostly outnumbered. This leads to more XP and gold.
Variety. After 10 years in the Horde, Exorsus wanted to experience the other side for a change of pace.
Multiple racial bonuses that are better for raiding – not just the Stoneform.
The decision to want to switch to the Alliance was made a long time ago. Now was just a good time since there is currently a 30% discount on relevant account services.
However, we do not know why a large portion of players still chose a Dwarf when changing factions. Presumably, they still considered this bonus to be the most useful. Other bonuses, such as the Night Elf’s stealth that would be strong in “Mythic+” content, are rather uninteresting for Exorsus. The guild has little interest in Mythic+ and does not want to set any major records there.
If you’re interested in more about WoW, you might also like this:
It remains to be seen whether Blizzard will make further changes to the racial bonuses as more players conclude that the Alliance is the better choice in Shadowlands.

Launch of the new Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S is just around the corner. And here’s how much space you’ll need for it on your respective platform.
When is Black Ops Cold War coming out? Only a little more than a week to go: on November 13th, the new Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War will celebrate its release on PC, the current console generation, and the next-gen platform Xbox Series X|S.
Players in Germany will have to wait a bit longer on the PS5, as Sony’s new console will only be available here on November 19th.
Here you’ll find the most important information about the release and the game:
Consequently, many are curious how large the new CoD: Black Ops Cold War will be. There was talk of 175 GB on PC, and a leak of the box art for the PS5 startled some players. It showed that Cold War requires at least 285 GB of free storage.
But now speculation ends. Activision has officially announced the size of the new Call of Duty for the various platforms required for preload. In short: it will be large, but not as large as some have feared.
Here are the sizes: Activision states that for preloading on the respective platforms, you’ll need this much free storage space (via callofduty.com)
PS4: On Sony’s Current-Gen console, the game requires 95 GB of free storage
PS5: On the Next-Gen console, it requires 133 GB
Xbox One: On Microsoft’s Current-Gen, you need 93 GB of free storage
Xbox Series X|S: On both Next-Gen consoles, the game takes up 136 GB of storage
PC: On PC, it’s 125 GB for the full game including Ultra Graphics
It can also be smaller if you want: The specified sizes apply for Cold War with all content. But not all of it is mandatory. Already with Modern Warfare, you could reduce the size of the game by uninstalling various modules. The same is possible with Black Ops Cold War – on consoles and on PC.
Specific packs like Zombies or the campaign can be installed or uninstalled optionally – depending on what content you actually want to play.
For example: On PC, you need 35 GB just for multiplayer, 80 GB for the full game, and 125 GB for the complete game with Ultra Graphics.
You can also manage the content from within the game in the settings under the menu item ‘Account & Network’.
What do you think of the sizes? Can you live with them – especially considering the modular structure in the form of packages? Are you even getting the new CoD? Our shooter expert Sven Galitzki is still undecided: That’s why I’m as undecided as ever before buying CoD Cold War

In Call of Duty: Warzone there is a new nasty glitch in the game. This allows players to glitch outside the map and shoot defenseless victims from there. What it’s all about, you can find out here on MeinMMO.
What is the glitch?The new subway routes are actually designed for quick travel across the map. However, the subway tunnels are not completely traversable.
But at the station “Barakett Promenade East”, it seems possible to break through an invisible wall and then enter a sort of intermediate world outside the map.
From there, players can quickly explore the entire map of Verdansk and even attack opponents out of nowhere. The poor souls can’t even defend themselves against the fire.
The new subway shafts are a problem.
Since this is a clear exploit, we won’t explain the exact procedure here. But what can be done about it?
What can be done against the glitch? Not much for now. Ultimately, the developers need to quickly roll out a fix via patch. Since it’s a game-breaking glitch, something should happen soon. However, there has been no official response from Infinity Ward yet, but errors of this nature are often addressed quickly.
For example, helicopters were removed in a patch after players could glitch under the map with the flying vehicles. Until then, Barakett Promenade East should become a hot spot for wannabe glitchers.
You can either avoid the place and hope that you don’t get caught by the glitchers. Or you land there first and shoot everyone who wants to glitch into the subway shaft. At least you get something out of the glitch until the problem is fixed.
The new subway map glitch is unfortunately not the only nasty bug that is currently making the game unfair. In Call of Duty: Warzone, there is also a known issue where players can block doors permanently. Cheeky glitchers use this to barricade themselves in bunkers and no one can get in anymore. Read here to find out what it’s all about.

A spooky bug is currently plaguing World of Warcraft. Statues seem to have come to life, causing quite a few moments of fright.
A new patch always brings a few small, hidden errors in World of Warcraft. Currently, a bug like this is quite creepy, as it suddenly turns dead statues into living creatures responsible for some eerie chills.
What kind of error is this? In the WoW subreddit, user Caradin posted a short video of the statue from Arom’s Stand. This is a stronghold of the Alliance in Drustvar. An important place here is a statue in the south of Arom’s Stand. It should actually be made of stone and thus immovable. However, when the character approaches the statue, both the statue and the hawk on the man’s arm turn to face the player. You can see that here:
Where does the bug come from? With the Pre-Patch 9.0, Blizzard implemented a new system for NPCs. Whenever the player’s character walks close to an NPC or the NPC walks past the character, they try to look at the player.
This is basically a good thing and makes the world feel more authentic. NPCs notice the character, give them a quick glance, and then continue with their daily routine.
Apparently, this feature was also applied to statues. This is likely because the newer statues are essentially just NPCs with fixed poses that have been colored accordingly. When the new system was introduced, it seems to have been applied to all NPCs. That’s why even the statues now turn their heads to face the players.
This can be seen with many human statues, but also with some Quillen in the Mogu areas (the “dogs” of the Mogu).
If you’re interested in more about WoW, you might also be interested in this:
Will this be fixed? It will likely take a while for Blizzard to fix this bug, as all statues might have to be individually removed from the new system. Until then, it’s enough to shock some puzzled friends and come up with spooky stories about what the strange statues in the game world are up to.
With a bit of luck, this will be a thing of the past with the next patch, which is expected to arrive with the launch of Shadowlands.
Another bug from Patch 9.0 has turned mages using the hairdresser into sudden drag queens.

You haven’t played Destiny 2 in a while and want to dive right into the new expansion Beyond Light? MyMMO brings you up to date, so you don’t have to hide from other Guardians.
On November 10, the Beyond Light expansion is released and kicks off the 4th Destiny year. You’re considering squeezing back into your Guardian outfit and combing the universe for loot, but you’re not quite sure what has happened in Destiny 2 during your absence?
You are in the right place, because we will bring you up to date so you can relax and enjoy the new content from Beyond Light.
MyMMO addresses questions like:
Do I need old DLCs to play Beyond Light?
What is the difference between Beyond Light and the Season of the Hunt?
Will the (re)entry be made easy for me?
What is a Destiny content vault and why is it even a thing?
Why is everyone complaining about weapon sunsetting?
Can I prepare for the new expansion?

Do I need Shadowkeep and Forsaken for Destiny 2: Beyond Light?
Are there DLC prerequisites? No! You do not need old content to play the new content of Destiny 2: Beyond Light.
All players experience the same expansion when they buy Destiny 2: Beyond Light.
Even if you only own the free-to-play version Destiny 2: New Light, you can check out the new locations. However, most of the new content will only be available after purchasing the expansion.
In Beyond Light, you enter the ice moon Europa
However, if you missed the content from the two major expansions in the past and want to catch up, you will have to purchase them separately. Content like raids, quests, exotics, or the story from
Tell me more about the Season of the Hunt from Destiny 2
This is what Season 12 is about: Depending on how long your Destiny break has been, the current season model might confuse you. Season 12, the Season of the Hunt, launches parallel with the Beyond Light expansion and runs until February 2021.
Here are the key points at a glance:
DLCs traditionally bring a lot of content at once and new DLC locations – With Beyond Light, Europa and the Cosmodrome from Destiny 1 partially return
A season has a clear start and end date and takes place in known areas
Seasons distribute smaller content bites over a certain period to give you reasons to log in repeatedly
You do not need to purchase Season 12 to play Beyond Light
Many items such as the seasonal artifact, the Season Pass, or events and even new gear are free for all Destiny players
Buyers of a season (around €10) will also get more loot from the Season Pass and access to quests or activities
The story of Season 12 and Beyond Light are independent of each other – however, over the 4 seasons of year 4, a storyline will unfold that will lead into the next major expansion in 2021
This is the roadmap for Season 12 and the launch of Beyond Light
Find out more about the different versions of Destiny 2: Beyond Light and their content here:
So, now you know whether you need to pay attention to anything when purchasing. But what is different now if you log into Beyond Light for the first time and who will help you get your bearings?
Destiny 2 helps returning and new players
This is what the new beginning brings: When you are in the Destiny groove, you don’t notice how complex Destiny 2 has actually become. This can deter new and returning players – Bungie has noticed this and is providing assistance.
Here, new players are guided and learn all the basics of Guardian life
Veterans can also play the missions easily and refresh their knowledge
A new NPC is being introduced for this purpose: Your trainer will be Shaw Han
You don’t have to worry about your level: In Beyond Light, all players start at the same level of 1,050. This way, everyone can play the new content – even if they have taken a long break and seem hopelessly behind in power level.
Shaw Han will teach you your first lessons in the Cosmodrome
What you need to know about the Destiny Content Vault
If you start Destiny 2 on November 10 and want to head to Shaw Han in the Cosmodrome, you will immediately notice a big difference in the menu: Half of the game is missing!
With Beyond Light, Destiny will lose these 5 locations:
Io
Titan
Mars
Mercury
The Leviathan
These planets and locations, along with their quests, PvP maps, strikes, and everything you found there, will move to the so-called Destiny Content Vault. Activities like the forges of the Black Armory or the dungeon-like missions such as Zero Hour and the Whisper mission will also disappear.
This is how the map of Destiny 2 will look starting November 1
Why is Destiny 2 removing content? There are several reasons for this. One is that Destiny 2 cannot grow endlessly. However, the content in the vault is not lost forever. It is being removed from the game to be revised by Bungie at a later time.
Additionally, Bungie is gradually bringing back highlights from Destiny 1. So think of the Content Vault as a sort of resource pool, where content from both Destiny 1 and 2 is resting. It has already been announced that the cult raid “Glass Chamber” will be playable in Year 4.
Okay, now you are prepared for the shock at the launch of Beyond Light. If you want to know more about it, here’s a list of all disappearing content and additional information:
Each affected piece of equipment has a sort of expiration date. Once that date is reached, it becomes virtually useless for endgame content
The calculation is made in seasons: A new item is “fully usable” for 3 seasons after its original season
A weapon from Season 12 can thus last until Season 15, but in Season 16 it’s over – at least regarding its effectiveness for endgame
This affects legendary weapons and armor
Exotics are not affected
Some items from activities like raids may last longer and therefore remain relevant in later seasons
What’s the point? Bungie wants to continue bringing powerful weapons into the game but does not want to worry about how long the item is a balance plague.
This topic has sparked heated discussions since its announcement, also on MyMMO:
It is important to note: The equipment does not dissolve or anything like that; it just can no longer be leveled but can still be used. So, you can use your “Luna’s Howl” in the regular Crucible, but in Iron Banner or the Trials, the damage won’t be sufficient.
Are there any questions left? Now you should be able to speak on all important topics regarding Beyond Light. Do you have any further questions you would like clarified before your start? Let us know in the comments.
If you’re returning now and aren’t quite sure how to spend the last week before the expansion or how to prepare, check this out:
In Genshin Impact, the new Patch 1.1 is on the horizon. It will introduce 4 new characters to the game. However, a new leak shows 9 additional characters and a new zone that could be released with Patch 1.2 in December.
However, the reddit user drakolla911 has shared images and information about 9 more characters that are unrelated to the previous 8. Currently, there are indications of a total of 17 new characters.
For the 8 newest characters, there is already an image, their names, as well as their corresponding elements and weapons. We from MeinMMO will briefly introduce them to you.
9 New Characters for Genshin Impact
Here are the 9 characters: We will introduce the characters from left to right, starting with the top ones and then the bottom ones:

Also included is Kazuha | Element: Anemo | Weapon: Sword | Origin: Inazuma – However, there is no image of Kazuha.
*The author indicates that they might have confused these two characters.
What else does the leak promise? Dedicated players may have already recognized that some of the characters are from Inazuma. This area does not currently exist and will be added to the game with a future update.
When will the changes be released? A release for Patch 1.1 is ruled out. However, the developers have already promised regular updates:
Patch 1.2 is set to be released on December 23
Patch 1.3 in February 2021
It is quite possible that we will encounter the first of these characters there. It is likely that the 4 characters from the old leak will still be included in the December patch. The newer characters will only come together with the Inazuma area.
How are players reacting to the leak? Under the reddit thread, there is already some criticism. The reason for this is the combination of elements and weapons:
For years, a revival of the old EA title “Battleforge” has been in the conversation, and now it seems that the time has truly come: The project “Skylords Reborn” is set to launch later this year.
This was Battleforge: Battleforge was an online game that combined real-time strategy with collectible cards. Players could engage in direct duels and throw cards full of spells and creatures at each other.
However, the game was likely ahead of its time and apparently did not prove profitable for the publisher EA at that time: In October 2013, Battleforge was discontinued. Nevertheless, a group of fans of the game did not want to give up and obtained permission to relaunch Battleforge under the name Skylords Reborn.
However, the work on Skylords Reborn stretched over several years, which also drew criticism. It has been in an open stress test for quite a while now. However, it now seems that the game will actually be released in its new form.

The open beta trailer was released three years ago. Now there is a final release date.
Developers announce game for December
This is what the developers say: In a forum post, the developers announce that it is finally time and Skylords Reborn is coming:
“The day everyone has been waiting for has finally arrived. After all these years of hard work and dedication, we are pleased to inform you that we have an official release date for Skylords Reborn,” the developers write. The date: December 18, 2020.
This means that, as of now, Skylords Reborn is expected to be released within this year.
At the same time, the developers announce a progress reset. Content earned during the stress test cannot be carried into the new era. This applies, for example, to collected cards. All players will start from scratch on December 18.
How is this funded? As the developers explain in an FAQ (via Skylords Forum), the game will be completely free-to-play. There will also be no content that can be purchased with real money. However, a donation pool has been set up. The donated money is intended to maintain the servers and support further development.
The new Team of the Week 6 (TOTW) is now available in FIFA 21 and brings some strong Bundesliga cards.
This is the TOTW: In the Team of the Week, you will find new special cards every Wednesday, based on real player performances. The best players of the week receive an Inform card. These have better stats, generate money on the transfer market, and are needed for some SBCs – such as the new Forsberg Challenge.
When will TOTW 6 be released? You can now pack the new Team of the Week. Special cards will be available from 7 PM and will remain for one week. Then they will be replaced by the new Team of the Week.
Here are the best TOTW cards: The strongest card in the new TOTW is Karim Benzema, who breaks the 90 level. Behind him are cards like Hakim Ziyech (86) and Joao Felix (84).
Four Bundesliga players in TOTW 6: The new Team of the Week features several special cards for Bundesliga players. A total of 4 players from the Bundesliga are featured in the new TOTW.
Hradecky from Leverkusen guards the goal, receiving an upgrade to 85.
Mats Hummels from BVB receives a new 87 card with particularly strong defensive stats.
Serge Gnabry from FC Bayern gets an upgrade to 86.
Matheus Cunha from Hertha BSC is in left midfield (82 overall rating).
Additionally, Kempe (78) from SV Darmstadt from the 2. Bundesliga is also in the TOTW. With Kevin Volland (84), an old Bundesliga acquaintance is also part of the team, who has now settled at AS Monaco. However, he still connects well with German players.
If you’re looking for further reinforcements for your team, you should check out the transfer market. It’s currently full of affordable players and allows forstrong Bundesliga teams.

The developers of Friday the 13th have announced that dedicated servers will be shut down with the next and final update. The game, which was quite successful in 2017, has been dying since a legal dispute in 2018.
What will happen to Friday the 13th? The official servers of the horror game will be shut down. In an official post in the forums, it is stated that it will be over with the next patch. This patch will also be the last one that Friday the 13th receives.
It is set to be released sometime in November. A specific date has not yet been revealed. Patch notes and more detailed information are expected to be available a week before the patch’s release.
The forums will also be closed at the same time. New posts will no longer be possible. Social media will be minimized.
In Friday the 13th you can take on the role of the killer Jason Voorhees.
What kind of game is it? Friday the 13th is an asymmetrical horror game for PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch, where up to 8 players can play in a lobby. A random player will become the famous killer Jason Voorhees and must kill the remaining players.
This makes Friday the 13th similar to Dead by Daylight, only with larger lobbies and just one killer. Recently, the game had an average of over 300 active players on Steam (via steamcharts). In the summer of 2017, over 16,000 players played simultaneously on PC alone.
Condemned to death since 2018
What happened in 2018? The shutdown of the servers and forums, and thus the end of support for the game, has been preceded by a long period of decline. This moment has been anticipated for 2 years. Only the exact “when” was still undecided.
What happens now? While the dedicated servers will be shut down, those who wish can still play Friday the 13th. The peer-to-peer connections for quick games and private multiplayer sessions will remain open, and progress will still be saved.
Evolve took the same path with Stage 2 back then.
How long this will be the case and whether it will benefit the game is still uncertain. The asymmetrical PvP game Evolve went a similar route. There, the servers were also shut down first, and shortly after, the game died completely. Cortyn from MeinMMO was already sure at that time: Evolve is the game you all should miss.

Call of Duty: Mobile offers countless weapons, many modes, and even a Battle Royale reminiscent of the Warzone predecessor Blackout from Black Ops 4. MeinMMO shows you the BR mode and makes comparisons with Warzone.
With the free-to-play title Call of Duty: Mobile, the CoD franchise successfully went to the smartphones of this world and provides its players with plenty of content and a mature shooter experience for on the go and/or in between.
In addition to the standard multiplayer mode, CoD: Mobile comes with a Battle Royale that we took a closer look at. Because the BR mode is not just a stripped-down mobile version of a real Battle Royale, but a complete BR experience where you can compete for victory with up to 100 players with sufficient reception.
To give you an impression of the to-go battle, we present the mobile BR here a bit, show you strengths and weaknesses of the Battle Royale, and make some comparisons with the big brother Warzone, which excites many players on consoles and PC.
For an insight into the BR gameplay, check out the short video from YouTuber “Wizey”:

Gameplay of the Mobile Battle Royale evokes Blackout memories
The first few seconds of a match make you feel like you’re in Warzone. The scene during the approach to the map is strikingly similar. But as soon as you leave the plane heading towards the combat zone, the Warzone predecessor Blackout immediately comes to mind. Because you glide towards the ground with a wingsuit and then deploy your parachute, keeping your target in sight, a little later, which lets you glide gently to the ground.
And that’s far from the end of the similarities. The loot system, healing, and even gunplay remind you of the Battle Royale from Black Ops 4 and make the BR on mobile a complete “Call of Duty” experience that lacks nothing.
On YouTube, the channel “AnonymousYT” released a video comparing the two titles directly. The video is somewhat older (September 2019), and there have been some adaptations since then, such as the approach scene. And zombies are not always in the game. However, the mobile BR still retains many similarities with the Battle Royale from Black Ops 4:
Benchmark Warzone – Can the Mobile Battle Royale keep up?
Yes, the mobile BR can keep up with Warzone. It’s a standalone Battle Royale that brings its own rules and is not a stripped-down copy of a real BR:
Mature CoD gunplay and movement
Complete Battle Royale without compromises
Various team sizes
Many weapons, attachments, and items
In terms of graphics, however, the mobile version cannot keep up, that’s for sure. But otherwise, the smartphone shooting game brings a real Battle Royale to your touchscreen that you can tackle with a controller or play on PC without any problems. In the following video from the YouTube channel “GamingRfan,” you can take a closer look at the graphic comparison with Warzone:

Comparison of the PS4 version of Warzone and CoD Mobile with maximum graphic settings.
In some aspects, the mobile variant even offers a bit more depth. However, Warzone comes with innovative mechanics that enrich the game and set it apart from the competition.
CoD Mobile relies on tried-and-true “Battle Royale” mechanics that, for example, PUBG (the first truly big Battle Royale) helped in its rise and also work well on smartphones.
This makes CoD Mobile better than Warzone
There are even a few things in CoD Mobile that would also suit Warzone well:
Regular events
Collectible attachments that you can use to improve your weapons at any time
The match pace is just right
Ranked mode
Why are the events better? One of the significant advantages of the mobile version is its frequent events. Warzone shone here in the first half-yearafter release with almost complete absence. The first real live event that offered many cosmetics and adjusted quite a bit in the game, was the Halloween event.
In CoD Mobile, there always seems to be some action online that provides players a break from normal gameplay. At the time of the article, for example, you could play the Blackout DLC map “Alcatraz” in the Battle Royale, including intrusive zombies. This is where Warzone could learn a lot.
Warzone took 6 months for the first event – CoD Mobile brings a new BR map for Halloween.
What do attachments bring? In the mobile Battle Royale, you are entirely reliant on the loot you pick up during the match. However, unlike Warzone, you can also modify your weapons. If you find suitable attachments, they can be fitted to your weapons to improve them a little.
This offers more depth and encourages you to engage more with the weapons and attachments. While this is also possible in Warzone outside of matches, all weapons during an ongoing round are fixed and a bad piece of gear remains bad.
Furthermore, there are a few exciting mods with which you can further enhance your weapons in CoD Mobile. These increase your ammunition capacity, allow you to run faster after aiming, or even reload your weapons after sliding. Depending on your loot luck, there are some considerable buffs that can support you on your way to victory. If you also find one of the best weapons of CoD Mobile, you can clean up.
What is so good about match pace? Mobile CoD offers more continuous action in the Battle Royale than Warzone, which can sometimes get quite sluggish in the mid-game.
The short rounds of a maximum of 15 minutes are often more motivating and bring pace to the Battle Royale. In Warzone, matches last around 30 minutes when you get to the endgame. This allows for more tactical approaches but can also quickly lead to frustration and boredom if you get unlucky.
At the end of the relatively quick rounds, there is a kind of post-game review showing your match progression.
Why is a ranked mode interesting? Whether for multiplayer or Battle Royale: CoD Mobile offers you a ranked mode with strict skill-based matchmaking and regular rewards.
This feature is not available in the multiplayer of Modern Warfare, nor in the Battle Royale Warzone. However, many players desire such a system that matches them with strong opponents at their level and distributes rewards when a ranked season is over.
This makes the Mobile BR not as good as Warzone
However, the BR experience on the smartphone cannot shine everywhere. A few aspects could also be learned by the mobile version from Warzone:
Missing 3-player teams in the mode selection
Randomness in the equipment is significantly higher
Specialists determining special abilities
Contracts and cash
What’s up with 3-player teams? That’s not a big deal overall, but it’s very annoying when you go in as a trio. Currently, CoD Mobile’s Battle Royale only offers solo, duo, and four-player games.
This was also a problem at the release of Warzone. The BR started only with 3-player teams and gradually added more team sizes. In particular, the duo mode took a long time to arrive. But now all team sizes from 1 to 4 players are available.
The jump is very reminiscent of Warzone – But the typical trios are not there in CoD Mobile.
Why does randomness play a role? In mobile CoD, you are almost entirely reliant on your loot luck within a match. If you particularly enjoy playing a certain weapon, you have hardly any way to deliberately search for it.
Unlike in Warzone: Here you assemble your loadout before the matches and then have to acquire it via supply crates. This brings more fairness in terms of weapons and equipment and allows virtually any soldier to run around with the best weapons of Warzone.
What’s wrong with the specialists? With the specialist system, you can choose a soldier with a special skill before the match. This concept has also existed for a while in the big CoD premium titles but has since been abandoned.
The problem with this system in a Battle Royale is the limitation. In the match, you have no way to adapt your extra gadget to your situation throughout the round. In Warzone, these functions are taken over by so-called “field upgrades.” This could be a trophy system that protects you from explosive shots, but also an armor box that allows you to supply your team with armor plates.
One advantage of this system is that you can reuse your equipment. After a certain cooldown, the gadgets are available to you again, while in Warzone, the items are consumed upon use.
What’s with contracts and cash? With contracts and cash, you can earn advantages in the Warzone match. This fits very well with the Battle Royale concept, as there are often “downtime” periods in which you encounter no opponents for a while. If you’re up for action, you grab a bounty contract and hunt an opponent. If you want to proceed more quietly and planned, you activate recon to get information about the game circle.
You can then spend your cash on useful items at the buy station or buy back your fallen comrades. This allows for many interesting tactics and noticeably loosens up the gameplay within matches.
Although the matches in CoD Mobile’s Battle Royale are not as long, and correspondingly, there is often less “downtime”. Nevertheless, these mechanics work well in Warzone, and here the mobile BR could learn a thing or two.
Pros and Cons of CoD Mobile Battle Royale compared to Warzone
Pro
Lots of variety & regular events
Complete BR that can be played on the go
Fast, engaging rounds
Ranked games for Battle Royale
Contra
Specialist system
High randomness in weapons & equipment
No contracts/cash
No 3-player mode
A topic in itself: The controls
We intentionally left out the controls on the mobile, as there are fundamental limitations for mobile games. But also because you have many options to improve the handling for yourself:
If you enjoy the Battle Royale, you almost have free choice of which input device you want to use. The game recognizes how you start the BR and only brings players into your lobbies who control the game in a similar way to you.
Furthermore, especially at the beginning, you’ll encounter many bots. This evokes mixed feelings for MeinMMO author Jürgen Horn, but it helps at the beginning, as you can often easily take down the NPCs. If you’re looking for some beginner tips for CoD Mobile, check this out:
With a victory, there’s always a wise quote. At the start, wins come easily.
Personal conclusion: Different, but really good
As a big Warzone fan, I approached the Battle Royale on mobile with some skepticism and had seen little about the game beforehand. But already after the first few minutes, it was clear that CoD delivers a complete BR that has a lot to offer.
After some practice with the touch controls, you’ll be sliding, jumping, and shooting over the map in the familiar CoD manner, and you can almost forget that you’re on mobile. The unusual sitting position during longer mobile gaming sessions reminded me of that again, but all in all, CoD Mobile offers a surprisingly large Battle Royale that barely lags behind the PC and console counterparts in terms of gameplay.
If you are fans of Battle Royales or want to try a complete shooter on mobile, install CoD Mobile. The standard multiplayer mode is also packed with content and offers many hours of action when the Battle Royale doesn’t appeal to you as much.
But in the end, it remains a smartphone shooter, which generally limits graphics, control & screen size. However, if you are looking for a full-fledged game that you can play on mobile for a long time and that constantly offers something new, I can only recommend CoD Mobile. Similar sentiments are echoed by MeinMMO colleague Noah Struthoff. While everyone is playing Warzone, he’s sitting in front of CoD Mobile.

In Valorant, you can now purchase the Reaver weapons. They were already discovered during the beta through datamining and have since been eagerly awaited. However, the developers at Riot Games are disappointed with the dataminers. They should have recognized the emergence.
What happened? The Reaver set served as a prototype for all Valorant weapons and was found by dataminers during the closed beta. They featured special reload and melee animations and had their own finishing move for the last kill of a round.
Many players were looking forward to the launch of these weapons, which were not released for months. However, since November 3, they are finally in the game.

What is so curious? In time for the release, the developers at Riot Games shared the story behind the weapons.
They also revealed that they felt sympathy for the fans who had been eagerly waiting for the Reaver weapons. Therefore, they hid hints about the release of the set and hoped that the dataminers would enjoy the cool find and spread it.
But unfortunately, they did not understand the signs at all.
What did the developers say exactly? In a Q&A about the weapons, Sean Marino, the Art Lead of Valorant, discussed the background of the weapons. It first concerned the story with the datamining in the beta:
As we continued working on the skin in the months leading up to release, we accidentally leaked file names in the build that were repeatedly picked up by dataminers.
The store team also used the Reaver weapons as placeholders for thumbnails, which had the unintended effect of haunting the menus from time to time, so we saw countless posts [and] felt bad because all of this only fueled rumors like ‘Reaver is the next skin line.’ Even though the Reaver weapons were still months away from release.
However, the developers wanted to utilize the datamining to hype up the weapons later:
The frequent datamining leaks inspired us to create a teaser campaign, where we intentionally included some eerie file names in patches 1.09 and 1.10 to announce the return of the weapons.
The dataminers could have had the chance to announce the Reaver weapons in advance and bring their find from the beta back into the spotlight. But they did not see the hints:
We laughed ourselves to death over the irony […], because none of the dataminers noticed the intentional leaks, causing our big-brain teaser to fail.
However, Marino did not reveal exactly what hints there were.
Twitch Drops for access to the beta created a huge hype around Valorant.
Valorant is one of the most successful free-to-play shooters and enjoys great popularity. This was also due to the Twitch campaign that Riot Games utilized. But Valorant is not alone in this, as this list shows:
Modern smartphones are good for more than just simple puzzle games. Rather, you can play various cool online shooters on phones with iOS or Android operating systems. Here on MeinMMO you will find a selection of apps for shooter games that you can easily play online on mobile devices.
How we selected: Our selection of recommended shooters for smartphones includes apps that have initially received at least 4 out of 5 stars in the AppStores and have six-figure download and rating numbers. In addition, we made sure to include fair free-to-play games, as you can safely try out such games without spending money.
In the following paragraphs, we will briefly introduce each game, explain the special features, and clarify which type of player the target audience is. The order of the games is random and does not represent any ranking.
What is it? CoD Mobile is a mobile game in the style of the Call of Duty games. As with Modern Warfare, you will fight against an enemy team in various multiplayer game modes or play solo in some modes. Alternatively, there’s a large battle royale mode in the style of Warzone with 100 players on a huge map.
The fights are fast and full of action. Therefore, the victory is quickly decided, and you can effortlessly have a quick round of shooting. The controls are easy to learn, and you can choose to play with a touchscreen or controller.
CoD Mobile is an extremely successful game that was among the big hits for publisher Activision in 2019. Currently (as of November 2020), CoD Mobile has over 11 million ratings in the PlayStore and a score of 4.5.

What are the special features? CoD Mobile offers just about everything a shooter’s heart desires. You can play a variety of regularly changing game modes and earn experience points after the battles. These, in turn, are used to unlock new weapons and equipment. In a specific menu, you can further upgrade your gear and, for example, improve the stats of a weapon with specific upgrades.
If you are already familiar with this gameplay from Modern Warfare and Warzone, you will feel right at home here.
The shootouts play out very quickly.
What does it cost? CoD Mobile is a free-to-play game that you can play completely for free. For real money, there are cosmetic items such as skins for weapons and characters. Some special weapon skins already come with pre-installed upgrades.
There is also a battle pass that you gradually unlock with game progress. There is a premium version available for real money, which offers more rewards at each level. Additionally, you can buy loot boxes with skins.
Who should play it? Satisfied players especially praise the enjoyable gaming experience in the CoD style and the successful mix of fast PvP matches and longer battle royale fights. The graphics are good, and especially the entry into the game is very motivating due to bots in your first rounds.
So if you are looking for a solid shooter for a quick session and like the style of Call of Duty, you can go for it here.

The US election 2020 is in full swing and the last votes are being counted. We from MeinMMO took this as an opportunity to take a closer look at 3 MMOs to see who is actually in power.
The voting system in the USA is extremely complicated. Depending on the state, votes are cast and electors are assigned to the winning candidate. Different states have different numbers of electors. In short, whoever reaches 270 electors at the end wins the election and becomes the new President of the USA.
Counting all the votes can take some time. In addition, in some states the mail-in ballots may arrive with some delay and still be counted.
We at MeinMMO wanted to bridge this time and took a look at 3 MMOs where politics certainly plays a role. We show you who is in charge in our list.
The Division 2
Genre: Shooter | Developer: Massive Entertainment | Platform: PC, PS4, Xbox One, Stadia | Release-Date: March 15, 2019 | Model: Buy2Play
What is The Division 2?The Division 2 is the sequel to the shared-world online shooter The Division 1. Here, the tactical cover system and the many RPG elements in the form of skills, character progression, and loot are in the foreground.
The world of Division is dominated by a pandemic. The virus was deliberately released. It is referred to as “Green Poison” or “Dollar Group” and has thrown the USA and large parts of the world into chaos.
Now it is up to you, as part of the Division, to restore order. The setting is Washington DC and New York City (with the Warlords expansion), which have been implemented realistically.
Politically, chaos initially reigns in The Division 2. Due to the virus, the government is collapsing. Various armed factions are trying to exploit the chaotic situation for their own gain.
There is the rogue agent Aaron Keener, who has witnessed the effects of the virus on humanity from the very beginning. He believes the government is incapable and wants to do his own thing.
The agent Aaron Keener
In addition, there are various splinter groups and the mysterious security company “Black Tusk” with political connections.
When the virus breaks out, Lawrence Waller is the President of the USA. Some players see connections between Waller and US President Trump. Admittedly, the name contains the English word for “wall” and the president is said to have a poor relationship with Russia. This is evident from an audio file in the game.
This file mentions a wall to Mexico. Only, in this case, it is meant to protect the Mexicans from the virus, not the USA from supposed immigrants.
In the game itself, Andrew Ellis, a former speaker of the House of Representatives and confidant of Waller, is the president. He betrays his country and the Division by stealing a broad-spectrum medication that could defeat the virus. He apparently also had his predecessor killed – a very charming guy.
Genre: MMORPG | Developer: Blizzard Entertainment | Platform: PC | Release-Date: November 23, 2004| Model: Pay2Play
What is WoW?World of Warcraft is considered the most well-known MMORPG in North America and Europe. You can play a total of 7 expansions there. WoW is primarily designed for MMORPG fans who want to experience raids and dungeons. But you can also quest through the story well on your own.
Currently WoW is celebrating its 16th birthday and the age shows in the game as well. The comic graphics have been enhanced here and there, with the latest patch also improving the characters.
As a combat system, you can expect classic tab-targeting.
For several months, WoW has offered two versions:
On the one hand, there is “Retail WoW”, which includes the current expansion Battle for Azeroth. The new addon Shadowlands is already on the horizon and is set to release on November 24, 2020.
Otherwise, there is also WoW Classic, a remake of the base game that was released in August 2019.
Who is in charge in WoW?
The world of WoW is characterized by the war between the Horde and the Alliance, which experiences a constant ebb and flow throughout the expansions. The factions are ruled by the High King of the Alliance on the one hand and by the Horde Council on the other.
At the head of Stormwind and the Alliance stands the King or High King. However, he does not rule alone, but has capable advisors in matters of war and governance around him.
There are high representatives of the army and navy for war issues and a council consisting of various members of the Alliance. In principle, all representatives of the major Alliance races can be found here. Thus, the king tries to safeguard the interests of all peoples.
The former warchief Sylvanas against King Anduin
With the Horde, the warchief was originally in the lead. He resided in Orgrimmar and was supported by advisors and ambassadors.
Since the last warchief, Sylvanas Windrunner, left the Horde, the position has remained vacant. The Horde then formed a council because they could do without a warchief in times of peace.
Instead of just one ruler, the leaders of the races are now in power to represent the interests of their peoples. All council members carry equal weight and decisions affecting the entire Horde are also made.
The Elder Scrolls Online
Genre: MMORPG | Developer: Zenimax Online| Platform: PC, PS4, Xbox One | Release-Date: April 04, 2014 | Model: Buy2Play
What is ESO?The Elder Scrolls Online is an MMORPG, but not in the classical sense. In the tradition of the Elder Scrolls series, it focuses on many solo content. In addition, the “One Tamriel” addon ensures that you can play everything at any level, and your character will be adjusted accordingly.
ESO places value on its special story and beautiful setting. Especially fans of the Elder Scrolls games will recognize some places. As with the current chapter about Skyrim, called Himmelsrand in German.
Who is in charge in ESO?
ESO is marked by chaos with an epic civil war at its core. Due to an intrigue by the necromancer Mannimarco, the emperor was overthrown and now only a puppet sits on the throne. The three alliances formed from nine races want to fill this position in the “War of the Three Banners”:
Tamriel and its factions with the contested Cyrodiil at the center
The Ebonheart Pact is ruled by Jorunn the Skald-King, but not alone. All his decisions must be ratified by the three races. This form of government is called the Grand Council and is very close to a democracy.
The Daggerfall Covenant is ruled by High King Emeric. He is a master of diplomacy, having secured the Rothwardons through marriage and the Orcs through skillful war agreements.
The Aldmeri Dominion is ruled by Queen Ayrenn. She asked the ancient races of the Khajiit and Wood Elves for help, to save the younger races from their misfortune. She wants to see the elves back in power and rid herself of the warmongering and cursed humans. A lesson in racism would also do the High Elves some good.

In Destiny 2, the most important release of the franchise since 2017 is coming with “Beyond Light”. The expansion will determine whether Destiny can continue in its current form. The new savior has already been decided. Bungie has brought him back from exile and promoted him.
That’s why the release of “Beyond Light” is so important: The new expansion “Beyond Light” will be released on November 10, 2020: It marks a turning point in Destiny’s 6-year history.
Essentially, the last 2 years of Destiny 2, since Forsaken, have been leading up to this addon. The 2019 expansion “Shadowkeep” seemed to be born out of necessity: It was the first major release that Bungie had to manage without its partner Activision. Accordingly, Shadowkeep turned out to be fairly small in hindsight.
The next 2 years of Destiny 2 will build on Beyond Light. This will be the first part of a trilogy with an interconnected story. It’s crucial that Beyond Light now initiates a wave on which Bungie can sail for the next years until 2022.
Furthermore, “Beyond Light” also marks the start of a new console generation. On PS5 and Xbox Series X, there will be a lack of major launch titles at release. Cyberpunk 2077 has also been postponed: By coincidence or clever planning, Bungie is in a position with Destiny where they have another significant opportunity to attract new players – thanks to a lack of alternatives.
Mark Noseworthy is now the “Destiny General Manager.”
In a conversation with Edge, he said in October (via gamesradar):
“In a way, it doesn’t matter what people think about it right now. What really matters: How does the game feel in November? How does the content ecosystem feel and how do the experiences feel? Is there enough for people to do? Do they feel connected to the game and want to play Destiny 2 with their friends?”
Mark Noseworthy
That’s exactly the question that Beyond Light needs to answer.
Luke Smith has been at the helm so far.
“The Best Days of Destiny Are Yet to Come”
Who is the new savior? As the past of Destiny has predominantly been shaped by Luke Smith – Noseworthy’s longtime partner.
In the video documentation for Beyond Light, he seemed to pass the baton to Joe Blackburn. Imagery and editing suggested that Joe Blackburn would be the new big star in the Destiny universe.
While the “old hands” from 2014 were allowed to speak at the beginning of the video – marketing chief Osborne, Noseworthy, and Luke Smith – Blackburn was given the space and the last words at the end of the ViDoc.
Smith referred to him as one of the “new young leaders” of Bungie, who it is enjoyable to watch as they take on more and more responsibility:
Apparently, Blackburn is supposed to play a crucial role in how Destiny 2 will continue from 2020 onwards. The video documentation ends with Blackburn stating, “The best days of Destiny are yet to come.”
On November 10, we will find out whether he is right.
Destiny 2 is a constant topic that can be talked about endlessly.
In October, we looked at the expansion “Beyond Light” and explained why it is so crucial for Bungie. The pressure on the release is huge. Now the future should finally begin, which Bungie has promised us since 2014:
World of Warcraft without multiboxers – a dream finally comes true. The joy among players is great, but there are also some critical voices.
Multiboxing was a thorn in the side of many players in World of Warcraft. Time and again there were complaints, and for many it was simply incomprehensible why the developers ever allowed it. Now, due to a rule change, classic multiboxing is basically banned, as software for duplicating keyboard inputs across multiple clients is no longer allowed.
Players are still allowed to have multiple accounts and play them simultaneously, but they must make all keyboard inputs in each WoW client individually. This massively hinders the effectiveness of multiboxers.
The end of classic multiboxing has come.
Players react enthusiastically
The general mood regarding this decision by Blizzard seems to be positive. Whether in the official forum, on the World of Warcraft subreddit, or on sites like wowhead, there are compliments everywhere.
MULTIBOXING IS DEAD. I salute everyone who always said that Blizzard would never ban multiboxing because of subscription revenues.
Other comments echo a similar sentiment:
“Suddenly thousands of druids with similar names all scream in pain at the same time.”
“Fantastic that they’re doing this before the Shadowlands launch and not after. This means that [multiboxers/bots] have no chance to gather resources en masse.”
Some share their experiences with multiboxers, like Strong_Mode:
Once a multiboxer came to me and hit me with 24x Death’s Mantle. I died and then I was told that wasn’t ‘game breaking’ at all. “If you don’t want to engage in PvP, just don’t be in war mode.” Good change, Blizz.
There are also positive voices in our comments. MeinMMO reader Tobibro writes:
Best change! Thanks, Blizz!
When I farmed in Nazjatar for about an hour six months ago, I also encountered a multiboxer and I thought to myself, “Okay, I do all this and get 5 herbs per plant, and the multiboxer gets 30 herbs per plant” – although just like me, there is only one person behind the multiboxer…
When I thought about it, I lost the will to play and took a 3-month break from WoW…
Lasered away from an army – this will not happen anymore.
A few critics remain
But there are indeed negative voices or those who praise multiboxers and their influence on the servers. However, these voices are clearly in the minority. Some criticize that now the prices for many materials in Shadowlands will rise. You won’t be able to buy as cheaply at the auction house as before. After all, multiboxers create rock-bottom prices as they gather herbs and ores with multiple efficiencies and can flood the market.
MeinMMO reader runebert writes under the news about this:
At the latest when the prices for materials soar again, players will realize what a mistake that was.
Ultimately, it must be noted that the overwhelming majority react very positively to the innovation. The decision is seen as a good, important step in the right direction.
If you want to know more about WoW, you might be interested in this:
But now let’s get to you! What do you think of the change regarding multiboxing? Is it good that Blizzard has finally adjusted the rules? Or did you even profit from multiboxing and regret that it is now restricted? Cast your vote in the poll and show us how you, as the MeinMMO community, feel about the topic.
If you want to elaborate on your answer a bit more, please leave a comment on the topic and discuss actively.

A well-known CoD leaker has revealed new alleged details about the future of Call of Duty: Warzone. The arsenal of the Battle Royale is said to offer over 100 different weapons in 2021, but that’s not all.
Where does the info come from? The supposed details come from the well-known CoD leaker Tom Henderson (formerly LongSensation). He has previously accurately predicted details about Warzone, Modern Warfare, and generally about Call of Duty.
And the leaker says that by the end of the lifecycle of Black Ops Cold War, in the fall of 2021, Warzone will feature over 100 different weapons in its arsenal. An impressive selection – especially considering that Warzone can be played completely for free.
It seems that the entire weapon range from Modern Warfare and Cold War (including new weapons yet to come) will be unified in the Battle Royale mode.
The weapons from CoD Cold War will likely receive a complete rebalancing for Warzone
Complete rebalancing for the Cold War arsenal: Furthermore, Henderson states that Raven Software is working closely with Infinity Ward (Modern Warfare) and Treyarch (Cold War) on the integration, and that in this context, the weapons from Black Ops Cold War will receive a complete overhaul in terms of balance.
These will be adjusted to match the current weapons in Warzone, which come from Modern Warfare. Cold War weapons will not have a slower TTK in Warzone compared to those from Modern Warfare.
In the traditional multiplayer, this is indeed the case, and many have already wondered how this situation will be resolved in Warzone.
Warzone is expected to continue with the next CoD in 2021 – following the same pattern as with Cold War
Warzone continues with the next Call of Duty: What might not really surprise anyone: According to Henderson, CoD Warzone will continue with the next Call of Duty in 2021, and the new CoD title will be integrated into the Battle Royale – just as it is currently the case with CoD Black Ops Cold War.
It has been officially known for some time that Warzone will continue for years and is supposed to serve as a constant that connects the different CoD titles.
In Season 4 of Fortnite: Battle Royale there is a secret mission where you have to prevent dwarves from blowing up the entire map. Now there is another task that rewards you with experience points. We will show you how to solve it and at which location you should do it.
What kind of challenge is this? In Fortnite Season 4 Chapter 2, in addition to the battle between the Marvel superheroes and Galactus, there is currently a side story where apparently the dwarves are planning to blow up the map.
The dwarf mission consists of 5 different tasks that you need to complete. After finishing a phase, you will immediately be rewarded with experience points. In the last phase, players had to search for the most wanted spray motif. Now we will explain the 5th phase.
If you have not completed the first three phases yet, you can find an overview of all the dwarf missions that we have summarized for you here:
What do you have to do? For the 5th phase, you will again be sent to the Fortnite map and need to search for a grave of a dwarf. You will then pay your last respects there.
This is the location:
The dwarf’s grave is located at Slurpy Swamp
To complete this task, you need to visit the grave in the northern part of Slurpy Swamp (outside the Slurp factory) and pay your last respects by interacting with the interaction button.
The grave is located at the swamps, behind a large tree. It is easy to identify because a dwarf statue made of stone has been set up there. If you prefer to watch the exact location in a video, you can do so here:

This is the reward: For this dwarf mission, there are 20,000 EP as a reward for you. Together with the previous phases, you will thus have a total of 90,000 additional experience points.
With these experience points that you can earn through all dwarf missions, you will receive a considerable boost for leveling up. This is especially worthwhile if you want to level up your Battle Pass. After all, there are all sorts of cool Marvel skins that you will not be able to unlock after Season 4 ends.
