Soon the PlayStation 5 will launch and our shooter expert Sven Galitzki will probably just have to watch. But he doesn’t really find it that bad. What about you?
This topic is a constant irritant for the PS5: Will it be possible to pre-order the PlayStation 5 again before the launch? Is a third wave possibly coming? What about the retail? And will there at least be more stock this year?
Many fans and interested parties are still asking themselves that. After a total of 2 waves of pre-orders, the PS5 is currently completely sold out, and not everyone who wanted Sony’s console has been able to secure one. However, Sony has remained silent about further availability.
There was a tweet before the second wave in which Sony promised restock by the end of the year. But the end of the year is a broad term. Does that mean the launch period? The immediate Christmas business? And is that even still happening? Nobody knows that.

Since then, Sony has not commented on the availability of the PS5
And so, in many places, alongside admittedly much anticipation, it is also heard how players and interested parties who have gone empty-handed are still complaining. About Sony’s silence. About the situation with availability. About issues with the pre-orders that have been placed. And in general about not being able to jump in immediately at launch.
This seems to be affecting many people’s mood. Some even go so far as to say that it is a reason for them to get an Xbox Series X instead, if there are still any available. However, I see the whole thing a bit more relaxed.
No PS5 at launch – So what?
This is how “my” PS5 experience went: As a long-time Sony player, I naturally wanted to secure a PlayStation 5 right at launch. However, it didn’t pan out after an initial “success”. In short: My PS5 was canceled a few days after the second wave.
Yes, it turned out really nice. But I will have to wait longer for it
So I am now waiting like many others for news from Sony and more stock. Whether I will get my own PS5 by launch or even at all in 2020 is uncertain, but it doesn’t look very promising based on current circumstances and statements from retailers.
There will likely be a loan PS5 for MeinMMO, which we can test for a short time. But it won’t be my own.
This is how I am looking forward to the PS5 launch: But is it really that bad? For some certainly yes, for me personally not. I am looking forward to the PS5 launch very calmly. If it actually works out – cool. If not, it wouldn’t be a world-ending event either.
I’m happy for everyone who can jump in right on November 19 (here in Germany) and I am looking forward to all the reports, experiences and material for news that will flood in. I will definitely follow the launch and everything that comes after it with excitement, even without a next-gen console. But I am not envious of it.
The two PS5 models along with official accessories
This is why I see it personally so relaxed: There are several reasons for that.
On the one hand, I don’t need to have everything first and immediately. I can enjoy and discover things for myself, even if many others have already had that experience and discussed it extensively.
On the other hand, it can certainly happen that the PS5 initially struggles with some growing pains, which might have been resolved later on.
At the launch of the PS5, there are also no launch titles that truly appeal to me. It’s not (only) graphics and loading times that make games. Games make games, especially the first next-gen games that interest me, will not be released until sometime in 2021.
This means: Until 2021, I would be able to play mostly old PS4 gems on the new console – like Destiny 2, The Division 2, CoD Warzone or Elite Dangerous. I can still do all of that perfectly well on my PS4 Pro.
The PS4 Pro will be absolutely sufficient for me for a while longer
So, if it has to be, I will wait very calmly and not let my mood get affected just because some can start earlier. The experience for me personally will not change in the end – neither positively nor negatively. I will experience and enjoy all that many will already be able to experience and enjoy starting November 19 – just with a bit of a delay.
What do you think about it? This view certainly won’t be shared by everyone. So I would love to hear from you: What do you think about it?
Are you as relaxed as I am? Or are you really angry with Sony and might consider switching to the competitor console even as a long-time PlayStation player? Let me know in the comments.
What about Shiny Driftloon? According to initial reports, Shiny Driftloon is said to appear more frequently. It seems to not have the usual rate of 1 in 450. So you will have good chances at the Shiny.
Catching Art: Ghost – All Steps
To give you an exact overview of each task, we will include all 10 steps of the catching challenge here. Each step consists of 3 tasks and rewards you with a tier reward at the end.
The Russian WoW professional guild Exorsus has switched to the Alliance. Apparently, they see a great advantage in Dwarves for the first raid.
Although there is still no official release date for World of Warcraft: Shadowlands after the delay, professional guilds are already preparing for the first raid. After all, there will also be a major World First race at Castle Nathria. To secure an advantage, the Russian guild Exorsus has now made a faction change.
What happened? The Russian professional guild Exorsus can no longer be found among the Horde. For several hours now, it can be seen in the Arsenal that the guild has completely switched to the Alliance.
Exorsus at the Alliance – full of Dwarves.
Why did they do that? If you take a look at Exorsus now, you will find that most characters have become Dwarves. The obvious reason is the racial bonus “Stoneform.” When activated, it ends all poison, disease, curse, magic, and bleed effects, and reduces physical damage taken by 10% for 8 seconds.
This is particularly useful since there are a number of bleed effects in Castle Nathria that can stack multiple times and make certain boss fights more difficult. In addition to Stoneform, the Vial of Serenity from the Kyrian Covenant can also help. This is one of the stronger covenant bonuses.
Better suited for the raid as a Dwarf?
Exorsus apparently hopes for an advantage from this and a chance to stay a bit ahead in the race for “World First.” Whether other large guilds like Limit will follow suit remains uncertain.
Professional guilds are traditionally more rooted in the Horde. The Horde had stronger racial bonuses for years, and a large part of the fans who support their guilds also play Horde.
Whether other guilds will follow suit or believe that other bonuses will be more useful remains to be seen.
Here we show you the 10 best forwards from FIFA 21 Ultimate Team and tell you who is worth it for your team.
Forwards are probably the most important part of any FUT team. Because without forwards, there are usually few goals. Here we list the 10 forwards with the highest ratings in FIFA 21 and tell you which ones are worth it and which ones are not recommended.
Because not every player with a high rating is automatically recommended. Sometimes a forward with a lower rating can be stronger because he fits better into the game’s meta.
Werner is the more popular card, despite the lower rating
For example, an 85-rated Timo Werner is significantly more expensive and popular than an 87-rated Griezmann. This is partly due to the league but also due to the important factor of speed, which only Werner offers.
The 10 best forwards in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team
These are the 10 best forwards in FIFA 21: In this list, we show you the forward cards with the currently highest ratings in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team (as of 24.10.2020). The cards are sorted by rating.
10. Harry Kane – first Inform card
Kane 2nd Inform (89)
This is the card’s cost: about 66,000 coins (PS4)
Is the card worth it? Harry Kane is a top forward, but unfortunately lacks some speed, which is why he can be bought relatively cheaply. Nevertheless, he has shooting stats at a top level, with which many goals are guaranteed.
It should be clear to everyone that Kane cannot shake off fast defenders and therefore does not fit into the current meta of FIFA 21.
9. Karim Benzema – Gold card
Benzema (89)
This is the card’s cost: about 24,000 coins (PS4)
Is the card worth it? Karim Benzema is similar to Harry Kane. He has fantastic shooting stats and can impress with good dribbling stats. But he also lacks speed to outrun opposing defenders.
However, if you use him for headers and goals inside the box, he is already recommended.
8. Sergio Agüero – Gold card
Agüero (89)
This is the card’s cost: about 69,000 coins (PS4)
Is the card worth it? Sergio Agüero also struggles with speed issues. But he is not quite as slow as Benzema or Kane. What makes him strong are his fantastic shooting stats and his very stable dribbling. For a Premier League team, the card is definitely a recommendation for the attack, especially because it remains within affordable limits.
This is the card’s cost: about 1,055,000 coins (PS4)
Is the card worth it? Neymar has a FUT card that really leaves nothing to be desired. All stats are at a top level: speed, shooting, passing, dribbling – all fantastic. His only weakness is his physicality.
But if you have enough coins, then Neymar simply must be in your team. Especially because of the 5-star weak foot and the 5-star skill moves.
This is the card’s cost: about 275,000 coins (PS4)
Is the card worth it? Robert Lewandowski is undoubtedly the best Bundesliga forward, especially his first Inform card from TOTW 2. He has outstanding shooting stats and very good physical and dribbling stats. And his speed is decent too. So if you have a Bundesliga team with the necessary coins, you should definitely get Lewandowski in your team.
2. Cristiano Ronaldo – Gold card
Ronaldo (92)
This is the card’s cost: about 1,500,000 coins (PS4)
Is the card worth it? For years, Ronaldo has been one of the best cards in the game. And whether he is worth it in FIFA 21 can clearly be answered with “Yes”. With Cristiano Ronaldo, you get probably the best forward in the entire game that is not an Icon. The stats are magnificent and leave hardly any room for complaint.
If you can afford Ronaldo, then like in previous years, he must be in your team.
1. Lionel Messi – Gold card
Messi (93)
This is the card’s cost: about 660,000 coins (PS4)
Is the card worth it? Although Messi has a rating point more than Cristiano Ronaldo this year, Ronaldo probably still has the slightly better card. You can also see that in the price, Messi is available for half. Nevertheless, Messi has an incredibly good card that scores particularly in the areas of shooting, passing, and dribbling. He is also quite fast.
If you want to draw or buy him, you should let him play and look forward to many goals.

Genshin Impact receives a new story quest line for one of its characters. We will tell you how to unlock it.
Many players have already reached the endgame in Genshin Impact and are craving new content. After all, the story of the game is far from finished, and the possibilities for daily grinding are limited. A new quest line featuring one of the characters comes just in time. The Astrolabos chapter featuring the character Mona will even be activated before Patch 1.1. We will tell you how to unlock it.
When will it be available? The quest line will be available starting October 26 – that is, already this coming Monday. After the usual maintenance at 5:00 AM, the quest line should be available.
What requirements must be met? To be able to play the Mona quest line, you need to have progressed quite far in Genshin Impact. You need:
Adventure Rank 38
The Noctua chapter 1 “The Darknight Hero’s Alibi” must be completed
A key to unlock story quests
You can start collecting keys as soon as you reach Adventure Rank 26. For completing 8 daily tasks, you can receive a key and unlock new story quests. You can access this through the quest page, which you can simply select next to the minimap. So far, there are about quest lines for Klee, Jean, or Venti – a character who has caused a lot of frustration.
This is what the menu for unlocking new quest lines looks like.
What is the quest line about? What exactly the Astrolabos chapter is about is still not entirely clear. However, it can be assumed that the quest will reward players with a lot of adventure experience points, and that players will also get to try out Mona in battle. After all, she is one of the coveted 5-star heroes and is ranked quite high on the tier list. The quest line will likely make players yearn even more for this heroine and perhaps offer a prayer or two to her.
Many shooters rely on dumb bot teammates at the beginning of the game to boost the motivation of newcomers. While it can be fun, our author Jürgen Horn finds it quite the opposite. You can find out why here.
What’s the deal with bots? Some competitive shooters often bring in more bots as teammates and opponents during the first rounds for new players. These AI comrades and foes play exceptionally poorly and are only a real danger to a human player with a lot of bad luck. Even the clumsiest noob usually wins against such AI losers. I experienced this in various games as well.
Me and the bots – My love-hate relationship with AI opponents in shooters
That was my first bot fight: My first fight against bots was in the game Paladins. The colorful hero shooter with fantasy flair promises fun shooting, and when I played it for the first time on the recommendation of my colleague Leya Jankowski, I was thrilled. I enjoyed the gameplay, and I seemed to be quite a natural talent.
Because the opponents were falling like flies, and I shot everything and everyone down. At the end of each round, I was regularly the MVP, and my kill numbers were phenomenal. I was incredibly pleased because even though I love shooters, I’m more of an average player. But in Paladins, that didn’t seem to be the case, and I was extremely happy.
My successes in Paladins were worth nothing!
But then I suddenly got worse, and the kills and victories stopped coming. I lamented my fate, and Leya told me back then something like, “You know, I think at the beginning you mostly play against bots and only later against real people.” I found that kind of annoying, and my interest in Paladins eventually waned, and I preferred to play the newly popular battle royale games.
There were no bots, and I was mostly unsuccessful from the start. That wasn’t great either, but at least it was honest. When I got a kill in PUBG, it was a highlight!
And so the bot saga continued: But PUBG eventually got bots too, and in one of my worst gaming sessions, I tested the game a few months ago for Stadia. My goodness, it was terrible. Not only did about 90 percent of the lobby consist of bots, but the stupid AI idiots also seemed to spawn as needed.
Then they ran around brainlessly, sprinted into walls, and gave up the chase after just a few shots, choosing instead to run around the house like digital idiots. It was no fun whatsoever to take down such goons, and I was really glad when the round finally ended. That’s not how I like my chicken dinner!
PUBG on Stadia was a plague for me – thanks to bots!
Fortnite comeback with bots is also annoying: Similarly, I later experienced my comeback to Fortnite, where I was also bitterly disappointed after a really great kill orgy with the new Marvel heroes, thanks to my colleague Eilyn Rapp. My victims – apart from the Deadpool guy at the end – were all bots. So it was no wonder that I took them down one after the other, even though I still refuse to build in Fortnite.
The Deadpool guy was not a bot, all the others before him were …
CoD Mobile brings the bot overdose:My final bot clash then took place in CoD Mobile. This CoD for smartphones is actually the first game of its kind that I enjoy. This was also because I dominated the game in large numbers. Proudly, I told my dear MeinMMO colleagues. But they were skeptical and immediately asked, “They were probably bots again, don’t celebrate too early.”
But this time I was sure: Players with names like “Kiwi_Ameise” can’t be bots. No AI would name itself like that; it must have been a player! Or those guys with Cyrillic letters in their names that I took down. Surely they are not Russian bots! Or?
Almost all players were bots, except for Yusuf!
Well, in the end, it turned out they were bots. Thanks, Benedikt!
What’s up with these bots? It seems that many games nowadays rely on bots to give players a sense of achievement at the start of the game. This also makes sense from a marketing perspective. If a player is often a victim repeatedly from the start and never gets anywhere, they may soon lose interest in continuing to play the game. One less customer.
Jürgen’s conclusion: Bots are for me like cheating
But that is precisely the crux for me. Of course I want to win. Fragging opponents is so much fun! But I want to earn these kills honestly. I want every kill and victory to be worth something. When I play against AI idiots, it feels cheap and worthless. I might as well play a shooting gallery game like Moorhuhn, shooting helpless opponents and feeling great about it.
Honestly, killing bots feels to me like cheating. Because a cheater also revels in successes that they don’t actually deserve due to their skills, but which they only achieve through technical aids. Be it cheats or deliberately bad AI teammates who provide themselves as cannon fodder. That’s why all these games with bots only motivate me for a very short time, as they become boring before matchmaking increasingly sends me to real people in the lobbies.
Jürgen Horn Editor at MeinMMO
But exactly from my complaints about the topic of bots. What do you think of this trend? Does the bot slaughter motivate you, or does it bore you?

MeinMMO has tested the “Sense Aimo” mousepad with RGB. In our test, you will learn why and for whom the RGB mousepad might be worthwhile, what we like and what we like less.
What is it about? Our article is about the “Sense Aimo” mousepad from manufacturer Roccat. Roccat focuses on a cloth mousepad with a rubberized back. The peculiarity here is that the edges are illuminated with RGB, which can be controlled via software. A similar approach is also taken by SteelSeries with its QcK Prism Cloth or Razer with its Firefly V2.
How well the mousepad performs in everyday use and gaming is explained to you by the test from MeinMMO.
How did we test?
Roccat Sense Aimo package contents: Mousepad, user manual, and micro-USB cable
We tested the mousepad for several days. This is how we proceeded:
Three mice were used on the mousepad: The G300S from Logitech, the Naga Pro from Razer, and the Kone Aimo Remastered from Roccat.
Overall, we used each mouse for several hours on the mousepad.

Roccat Sense Aimo in detail
Design and shape: The mousepad is not completely square, but overall a bit longer. This mousepad is primarily suitable for gamers who move their mouse little and mainly stay in the same spot with their gaming mouse. For heavy gaming mice, like Roccat’s proprietary Kone Aimo Remastered, which MeinMMO also tested, this is an optimal condition on paper.
The Sense Aimo is simply black. A small logo is located at the top right; the connection is at the top left.
Furthermore, the mousepad is otherwise kept in simple black, with only the Roccat symbol visible at the top edge. The connection for the USB cable is at the top left and is also presented discreetly.
The mousepad is also available in two sizes:
350 mm x 250 mm x 3.5 mm
900 mm x 400 mm x 3.5 mm
However, the functions of both mousepads remain identical, with the larger variant costing around 20 euros more.
RGB feature: Roccat employs a light strip that is machine-sewn to the actual mousepad. For the mousepad to light up, it is connected to the PC via micro-USB. It is positively noted that this is a cloth-covered, but otherwise commercial micro-USB cable.
The lighting can then be configured via the software “Roccat Swarm” on the PC.
Roccat Sense Aimo Software: Roccat Swarm
What we like: Through the Roccat Swarm software, all Roccat devices can be controlled. As soon as we connect the mousepad to the PC, the mousepad is directly recognized by the installed software and downloads an update for the device itself. Subsequently, we can use the additional lighting effects. The lighting of the mousepad, however, generally also works completely without software.
Simple and clear – The “Roccat Swarm” software
The software itself presents itself tidily and clearly. Through a tab in the upper half, you can directly access the settings of the mousepad. Here we can choose the brightness of the lighting or how the Aimo devices react to each other. This is quite practical.
What is less successful: The Swarm software consists in some places of a jumble of German and English. While most texts are now in German, especially buttons in the menus are presented in English. Even the auto-updater only speaks English.
In practice
In the following section, we will show you how the mousepad performs in practical tests. We will address the surface, thickness, and the slip resistance of the mousepad.
Surface of the Sense Aimo. The RGB lighting is sewn on.
Surface: Good gliding properties, but quick to get dirty
What we like: Roccat uses a cloth surface for its mousepad that is very finely processed. And this is positively noticeable when moving the mouse. The mouse glides quickly over the surface with little resistance.
This does not, however, prevent the mouse from moving involuntarily. Mousepads that use a coarser surface require a minimum effort for the mouse to move at all. This is not the case with the Sense Aimo.
The positioning of the logo at the top right also has its advantages: With Kanga, Roccat had previously placed a large rubberized inscription at the bottom right, which sometimes interfered with mouse movements. This is very well solved with the Sense Aimo.
Oops, unfortunately this affiliate widget is no longer available.
What is less successful: However, the surface also has a disadvantage: It gets dirty relatively easily and dirt remains visible. Additionally, due to the RGB feature, it is also difficult to clean the mousepad properly. Small contaminants can still be removed quite well with a damp cloth.
The back side of the Sense Aimo is thick and rubberized. This prevents the mousepad from slipping.
Thickness of the mousepad
What we like: The thickness of the mousepad is 3.5 mm, which is average compared to other mousepads. Thicker mousepads also make it harder to slip on different surfaces.
This is how the competition does it: Extremely thin is, for example, the Sphex V2 from Razer, which is only half a millimeter thick (0.5 mm). However, this must also be glued to the table and is, therefore, less flexible than a pad simply placed on the table.
Mousepad thickness in comparison:

Razer Sphex V2

Razer Firefly V2
3.0
Roccat Sense Aimo

Speedlink Orios

Asus ROG Balteus
7.9
Oops, unfortunately this affiliate widget is no longer available.
Back side and slip resistance
What we like: The thickness of 3.5 mm and the rubberized, rough back give the mousepad a secure hold on the desk. Whether on a glass surface or a regular table surface, the mousepad stays in place and does not slip even in fast fights. This holds true for the size 350 mm x 250 mm x 3.5 mm. We have not tested the larger version, but assume that it behaves similarly.
The glowing mousepad Roccat Sense Aimo – here with Kone Aimo Remastered.
The RGB lighting: Not just an eye-catcher with Aimo devices
What we like: Through the software, you can configure the type of lighting as desired, including the color and rhythm of the colors. You can also set the brightness here.
If you use additional devices from Roccat with Aimo lighting, you can try out many RGB effects, as all Roccat devices that bear the addition “Aimo” can be synchronized with each other.
Through the “Roccat Swarm” software, you can configure the lighting and brightness.
What is less successful: Roccat’s lighting system is not compatible with other systems. If you use mice from other manufacturers, you cannot synchronize them with the Aimo lighting. This is unfortunate but understandable.
Conclusion
Pro
simple, discreet design
good gliding properties
non-slip bottom
stitched edges with RGB lighting
Contra
gets dirty easily
only moderately easy to clean
For whom is the mousepad suitable? Those looking for a well-made, non-slip mousepad should take a look at the Sense Aimo from Roccat. The small variant with dimensions of 350 mm x 250 mm x 3.5 mm is especially suitable for players who game with high DPI settings and move their mouse little. For around 40 euros, the Roccat Sense Aimo is a successful alternative to other models. If you even own other Aimo-compatible devices like the Roccat Kone Remastered, then the purchase is also worthwhile.
Oops, unfortunately this affiliate widget is no longer available.
The larger variant with dimensions of 900 mm x 400 mm x 3.5 mm costs around 20 euros more and offers mainly more space. The other functions such as Aimo lighting remain unchanged.
Benedikt’s conclusion: Well-made RGB mousepad – even without Aimo device
With the Sense Aimo, Roccat delivers a robust mousepad with good gliding properties. Thanks to the rubberized back, the mousepad stays firmly on the desk. And the combination with multiple Aimo devices also works perfectly. In combination with the Kone Aimo Remastered, the mousepad delivers well-coordinated color effects.
It is annoying that the mousepad gets dirty quite easily and the cloth surface is not easy to clean. Here, mousepads with hard plastic or silicone coatings are significantly easier to maintain.
In direct comparison to RGB competitors such as the Speedlink ORIOS RGB or the SteelSeries QcK Prism Cloth, which also cost around 40 euros, the Sense Aimo does not need to hide at all.

On the evening of October 23, there was a new update for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and CoD Warzone, which not only refreshed the playlist but also removed some features. This will change over the weekend.
What is the update about? Currently, the Halloween event “The Haunting of Verdansk” is in full swing for CoD Modern Warfare and the battle royale Call of Duty: Warzone.
Halloween was introduced through a playlist update last Tuesday, and there was a further new update on the evening of October 23.
This is what has changed over the weekend
2 features are being removed: Initially, the update removed 2 gameplay elements from the game:
on the one hand, the helicopters in Verdansk – but only in the night version of battle royale
on the other hand, the pumpkin heads that have been active in the regular multiplayer and as part of the juggernaut suit in Warzone since the start of the Halloween event
The reason remains unknown. Infinity Ward has not commented on the helicopters. However, the helis have been removed from Warzone before. At that time, it was possible to glitch under the map and take out unsuspecting players from there. Is this happening again?
Regarding the pumpkin heads, it is only mentioned that a bug was the reason for their removal. These pumpkin heads were automatically available in multiplayer after 3 kills without dying. After 10 kills, the pumpkin head would start to burn. In Warzone, the juggernaut suit automatically had a burning head.
However, even if a bug seems to be the cause of the feature’s removal: some players had complained about the pumpkin heads – especially the burning ones. This made one a too easy target.

This is how the playlist is changing: The update also brought 3 fresh modes for Warzone. So there are now besides battle royale and zombie royale also the following active:
Cash Grab: Candy Collector
BR Solo Survivor
Juggourdnaut Royale
Despite the new name, Juggourdnaut Royale is essentially the same as the known Juggernaut Royale. Also, BR Solo Survivor and Candy Collector are basically Halloween renamed versions of the standard modes.

Battle Pass, Achievements and new Quest System. Hearthstone brings a lot of new features and they look really good so far.
A few days ago, Hearthstone revealed the next expansion “Madness at the Darkmoon Faire”. It not only brings new cards and a new game mode, but also a major overhaul of the progression system. Hearthstone is introducing its own version of the “Battle Pass” and also introduces new quests, a comprehensive profile page, and a lot of achievements that players can complete.
The Reward Path – the Battle Pass of Hearthstone.
This is the Reward Path: The “Reward Path” is basically Hearthstone’s version of a Battle Pass. With the launch of each new expansion, there is a Reward Path with 50 levels. Each level reached grants well-known rewards. These can be card packs but also nice amounts of gold, individual cards, or some new hero skins.
If desired, you can also pay for a Tavern Pass. How much it costs and whether it can also be purchased with gold is not yet known. The pass grants access to rewards that are unlocked in addition to the free rewards on the Reward Path. Additionally, the pass grants a 10% bonus on the experience points earned.

How Quests change: Going forward, you will have not just three daily missions in Hearthstone, but also three weekly ones.
As usual, you will receive a new daily quest each day, unless you are already at the maximum of 3 quests. If you don’t like a particular quest, you can exchange one daily quest per day for a new one.
The weekly quests are more difficult and take a bit more time. You receive them each Monday night and can exchange them for a new quest if you don’t like the task at all, just like daily quests.
Quests—whether daily or weekly—no longer grant direct gold upon completion. Instead, you receive experience points that advance you on the Reward Path. Ultimately, this also leads to gold and packs.
By the way: The major event quests will no longer block any of your normal quest slots. So you don’t have to worry about event quests “overwriting” a normal daily quest. This will not happen anymore in the future.
There will soon be 6 quests – 3 daily and 3 weekly. Along with event quests.
This is how the Achievement System will look: Hearthstone will receive an extensive achievement system with several categories that will be regularly expanded. It will save pretty much everything you do in the game. Some achievements are more general, while others are quite specific. The developers have given a few examples:
Play against another player with Hakkar’s card back.
Reach 1st place on the battlefield with Ragnaros.
Collect all Demon Hunter cards from Scholomance Academy.
Summon 1,000 Murlocs.
Win a game without summoning more than 1 servant.
The achievements sometimes require very specific decks or play styles. However, they are not a must.
New hero skins will be available through the Tavern Path – also for free.
So far, there don’t seem to be any rewards for achievements, aside from a point value that indicates how many achievements you have already completed. However, there will be a skin for the coin for collecting 135 cards from an expansion – but that could still change.
When is all this coming? The new features with progression, achievements, and the new quest system will go live on November 12. Then the new game mode
Halloween is approaching. The festivities have already begun in Fortnite. For MeinMMO author Eilyn Rapp, it is actually the highlight of the year, but this year she is celebrating in another game.
Players who are eliminated in a Solo, Duo or Team round are also transformed into shadows and can haunt the remaining players. The entire map has been spooky styled, and anyone who wants to zoom around on a broomstick can do so now.
Fortnitemares 2020 is cool, but it doesn’t convince me
This is why Halloween in Fortnite has always been my highlight: I am a huge Halloween fan, and this season is always eagerly anticipated by me. That’s why I always looked forward to the Halloween event in Fortnite, and it became my festive tradition.
Halloween in Fortnite has always been the highlight of my year
This is what bothers me about Fortnitemares 2020: The event itself is quite cool, and like in previous years, I enjoy the spooky setting, but somehow it doesn’t fully convince me.
The shadows are awesome at first, but over time, you just float around and don’t know what to do exactly when you can’t find any opponents. You can try out different abilities, but these are quickly learned. The funny thing about it is when you “consume” loot so that the living cannot find it.
Over time, you see this function as well, and the joy diminishes. Whether I will specifically start Fortnite on Halloween after having experienced it already 100 times, I doubt it.
My biggest highlight from the Fortnite Nightmares has always been the cool Halloween skins, but I have to sadly say that they didn’t really convince me. Only the Gothic pack has been interesting for me so far, and those are actually old outfits that were already known.
This game has captivated me instead: The reason I am not so thrilled about Halloween in Fortnite is also because I have another festival that I am looking forward to.
Animal Crossing New Horizons has become a big part of my daily life, and when I saw the announcement for an autumn update filled with spooky items, I was thrilled.

The trailer for the autumn update and the Halloween celebrations
This is what got me so excited: For a month now, players in ACNH have been preparing for Halloween. The spooky items can be crafted by yourself, and even the pumpkins needed for this are planted yourself. This allows you to decorate your own island.
I naturally set up a spot just for my favorite season. There, I placed all the items and created my own pumpkin garden.
This is what my Halloween section currently looks like on the island
However, I am most looking forward to Halloween itself, because unlike in Fortnite, there is a real festival in Animal Crossing on October 31st with “trick or treat”. Your animal neighbors also dress up and ask for candy.
I will have a lot to do, as I will also be able to visit my friends and distribute some candy to their neighbors. The excitement is rising because I am already wondering what costumes I will see.
Although I actually think the Fortnitemares 2020 is cool, Animal Crossing has been able to convince me more with their Halloween event this year. Additionally, I won’t be celebrating alone in ACNH as my friends unfortunately don’t play Fortnite anymore. However, I will still check in daily to the Fortnite Nightmares because I want to level up the battle pass of Season 4. For that, I already have some tips that help level up faster.

Destiny 2 has relied on a seasonal model for years to provide reasons to log in between the DLCs. But which of these was the most popular among players?
This is coming soon: On November 10, the expansion Beyond Light will finally be released. At the same time, a new season also begins. Currently, we do not know its name or the seasonal content. However, we know that Bungie will continue to rely on the seasonal model in Year 4.
We want to take this as a starting point and look back at the past seasons of Destiny 2. In the end, it’s up to you. You can then decide which season is the favorite among the MeinMMO community.
What is a season: Unlike major DLCs or expansions, the seasons are intended to distribute content over a longer period, so they do not exhaust their resources all at once. They have a clear defined start and end.
There is usually an overarching theme and a focus on some core activities.
In addition, seasons spice up everyday life with events – like the current Halloween –
Many of the contents disappear from the game at the end of the season or need to be leveled up again afterwards. This includes seasonal passes or seasonal artifacts.
We do not count DLCs or major expansions or the vanilla game as separate seasons. This gives us 7 seasons that we will briefly introduce to you before the survey.
Season of the Forge: In the first content of the Year Pass after Forsaken, players had to help Ada-1 activate the 4 Forges of the Black Armory. Here Guardians can forge equipment themselves.
Additionally, the season brought a fresh raid: The Reckoning. With the notorious Niobe Labs, the Season of the Forge kept the puzzle-loving community busy.
The Season of the Forge would have pleased Batman, as everything here is black
Season of the Drifter: This season revolves around the shady Drifter. The Guardians had to choose via a quest whether to pledge allegiance to the Vanguard or the Lord of Gambit. Furthermore, players were allowed to dive deeper into the story of the mysterious Nine.
In keeping with this, a new, faster Gambit mode was introduced: Gambit Prime. With the Reckoning activity, Bungie also had something for PvE players.
The Drifter will soon mix both Gambit modes into one activity in Beyond Light
Season of Opulence: The Cabal Emperor Calus calls the Guardians back to the Leviathan. Here awaits the Menagerie. It is clearly raid-inspired but does not rely on a fixed team and is one of the most rewarding activities in terms of loot due to the chalice mechanic.
The season also brings a proper raid: The Crown of Sorrow. Additionally, Destiny introduces a kind of shooting range here, the Tribute Hall. So that the Guardians can immediately test something new to shoot, the Season of Opulence also includes new exotics. Classics like Truth and Lumina, the first weapon for supporters, are included.
The Menagerie is basically a faster raid-light
Season of the Undying: This season started together with the release of Shadowkeep. It was about repelling the time-traveling Vex on the Moon and stopping the enemies in the Vex Offensive. This culminated in a kind of seasonal finale, which was not well received.
For the first time, there was now in Destiny a season pass that granted rewards through leveling up. The model of a free and premium track has remained to this day. Cosmetics, equipment, and even exotics can be found in it.
Season of Dawn: Together with the legendary Warlock Osiris, the task was to rescue the no less legendary Titan Saint-14. The players had to embark on a time travel journey during the Sundial activity and level the so-called obelisks. Especially the story missions in the different timelines are noteworthy.
The long-missing Trials of Osiris made their return to PvP with a bang.
Through quests, the season pass, and loot luck, there were also new exotics in the Season of Worthy
Especially the finale of the season is likely to remain in many people’s memories. To conclude, Destiny 2 held its first live event. A bit drawn out but very impressively presented, players witnessed the destruction of the Almighty:

The enormous Cabal ship could only be brought down from the sky with Rasputin’s help
Season of Arrival: In the currently ongoing season, Darkness has arrived after six years. Mysterious Pyramid ships can be found on many planets. Through Contact Events and Interference Missions, we try to uncover their meaning.
Additionally, half the solar system must be evacuated, as Darkness is soon to swallow entire planets. However, in the Season of Arrival, the Guardians also received
The season has been stretched by about 2 months because the Beyond Light expansion has been postponed. However, it looks like we can expect a big concluding event soon as well .
What does the arrival of the Pyramid ships really mean?
Now it’s your turn: Which season was the best?
How to participate in the survey: We at MeinMMO would like to hear your opinion on the mentioned seasons. To do this, we have prepared a small survey.
You simply choose your favorite from the list. Please note, you only have one vote. Thank you for your participation.
Let us know in the comments what exactly was decisive for your choice. What do you think of the seasonal model in general?
After a major disruption, the servers in FIFA 21 are now running normally again. Players can now participate in online matches and the Weekend League again. The Weekend League will be extended once more.
What happened? Yesterday, on October 23, there were massive server issues in FIFA 21 starting at 7:00 PM. Players could not use any online services from FIFA and consequently could not participate in Weekend League matches or use any other online modes.
It was also not possible to log in to the web or companion app.
Especially frustrating: The disruption of the FIFA servers started just in time for the new Rulebreakers event, which brought numerous new special cards into the game.
The Weekend League is being extended once again
What’s next? Since 3:33 AM, the servers have been running normally again, allowing players to participate in online games. This was announced by EA via Twitter.

Logging into the web and companion app for FIFA 21 Ultimate Team is also possible again.
What about the Weekend League? The second Weekend League in Ultimate Team was actually supposed to start yesterday. But from 7:00 PM, no games were possible. EA Sports announced that the Weekend League will be extended by another 24 hours this weekend. It will now end on Tuesday morning.
The 4 steps require different tasks from you. Each step has a total of 3 tasks that bring individual rewards. Once you have completed all 3 tasks of a stage, there is an additional stage reward.
What you should do: Especially in the last stage, it is worthwhile to use a Star Piece and Lucky Egg. You can enlarge your rewards with them. However, if you do this, you should continue playing for at least half an hour afterwards and make use of these items. Only then is it really worth it.
Where can I find Mega-Gengar? Energy for Mega-Gengar is available in another special research during Halloween. Here we have provided you with all the information:
An attentive customer has discovered a price tag for the SSD of the PlayStation 5 in a US market. The storage expansion is even comparatively inexpensive.
For someone who likes to have many games on their hard drive and play many games simultaneously, the storage space of the SSD in the PS5, with 825 GB, is relatively limited. Rumor has it that there are only about 664 GB of free storage space available for games.
This is why many are keenly interested in possible storage expansions. There may be good news here.
Where does the info come from? The info comes from the USA. There, a customer apparently discovered a price tag for a PlayStation 5 SSD in a shopping center of the large retail chain Walmart. This would be the first information about the price of a PS5 SSD ever.
However, since this information has not yet been officially confirmed by Sony, take it all with a grain of caution and skepticism.
What does the price tag reveal about the PS5 SSD? The price tag apparently refers to a 500GB variant of the PS5 SSD. It is listed there for 115 USD, which is approximately 97 €.

However, it is not clear what kind of SSD model this is supposed to be. It is also unclear whether Sony might offer “in-house” storage expansions or if it is a PS5-compatible SSD from a third party.
However, it is clear: If the price is correct, it would be comparatively cheap and cheaper than many had feared.
This is how expensive comparable SSDs are: The interesting part: The PS5 requires an NVMe SSD with PCIe 4.0 support. Comparing the price of the listed SSD with models that, according to the current status, could be used in the PS5 based on their technical specifications, the SSD listed at Walmart is relatively inexpensive at just under 100 €, even for 500 GB:
The 980 Pro from Samsung costs around 137 € for 500 GB of storage
The SN850 from Western Digital with 500 GB of storage costs 127 €
However, if the price from Walmart turns out to be true and actually refers to a PS5-specific SSD with corresponding performance, the storage expansion for the PS5 may indeed be cheaper than many had previously thought.
Which SSDs are compatible with the PS5? Right here, one is still in the dark. It is only known that the PS5 supports PCIe 4.0 M.2 NVMe SSDs and that a list of officially certified SSDs that are suitable for the PS5 will be released. The “Walmart leak” does not provide any new information in this regard.
This is why one should wait before purchasing a storage expansion for the PS5. PS5 games are designed for the fast SSD of the PlayStation 5. Models that do not meet certain requirements can lead to problems. Which models those are is still unknown – even though there are only a few weeks left until the official launch of the PS5.
This is how long the event runs: Until November 4th at 3:00 AM, you can benefit from the bonuses. We have already provided an overview of the general bonuses here:
These shinies are available: Cryppuk has already been announced as a new shiny. However, you can also catch additional shinies that were not necessarily expected.
This is what shiny Cryppuk looks like.
These include Zobiris and Gengar in costume. Both can appear as shiny and be caught.
Additionally, there is Pikachu in a Mimikyu costume in the wild. It was already catchable last year and this time it too appears as shiny. Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle are also making appearances in their costumes from last year in raids. They too can be shiny.
This is the research: Anyone who has completed the Mega Buddy Challenge gains access to this research around Mega-Gengar. It consists of 3 stages and is quick to complete:
In social media, there are reports, images, and teaser videos of the first delivered PS5 consoles, which Sony has now sent to numerous selected influencers and media representatives. Reactions to this are mixed.
What’s the deal with the first delivered PS5? On the afternoon of October 23, new tweets and reports came in almost minute by minute showing the first delivered boxes of Sony’s new next-gen console PlayStation 5 – in some cases even with complete accessories.
The launch of the PS5 in the first countries will not take place until November 12. In Europe, including Germany, even later on November 19. So who are the lucky ones?
Who exactly received a PS5 early? The delivered consoles are not an early regular delivery – “normal” players will still have to practice patience until the official launch dates.
The first next-gen consoles from Sony went to trade media and influencers – primarily in the US. From the well-known host Geoff Keighley to gaming sites like IGN to some lesser-known influencers, some visibly happy recipients were present.

Accompanying this were new advertisements. For instance, there was a new ad clip featuring US rapper Travis Scott.
https://youtu.be/oEkjgwiq0QM
FC Bayern star Robert Lewandowski also made headlines with a picture featuring a DualSense controller of the PS5 and simultaneously advertised the new console.
Are there new details about the PS5? No, not really. While there is a good look at the original packaging of the PS5 and some official accessories like headphones or camera, there apparently is still an embargo. So far, there is no unboxing video of the PS5. There are only minor teasers, none of which show the exact contents of the package.
Unboxing the PS5 controller: Only an unboxing clip of the DualSense controller has appeared on YouTube, which provides a good visual impression of the new PS5 controller. You can watch the video here:

How the community reacts: In the community, the reports of the first sent PS5 are received with mixed feelings. Many are looking forward to upcoming tests, unboxing videos, and potential new details about Sony’s next-gen console that should follow in the coming days or weeks.
Others are getting really hot and can hardly wait until they can finally unpack their pre-ordered PlayStation 5 and hold it in their hands and try it out.
Yet again, others are far from pleased. Some find it unfortunate that Sony prefers certain people due to their status but has still not concretely addressed the pre-order situation and the further availability of the PS5 that will truly affect many interested parties.
Because not everyone who wanted a PlayStation 5 has been able to secure one so far – despite now two waves of pre-orders. While the first can enjoy a PS5 or look forward with a secure pre-order to the launch, many others hope to acquire a PS5 either at launch or at least sometime this year.
The current situation regarding the availability of the PS5: Currently, the PS5 is completely sold out. And whether this will change in the near future is questionable.
For instance, Amazon and MediaMarkt have made it clear that they will not accept any more pre-orders for the PlayStation 5 anytime soon. It is uncertain whether the PS5 will be available at retail in Germany at launch, but current indications are not positive.
Although Sony mentioned in a tweet before the second wave of stock at the end of the year, it is unclear when exactly that will be or if it is still current – no official information has been released on this topic since then.
However, there are always rumors that both Sony and Microsoft may face supply difficulties for their next-gen consoles until spring 2021 due to COVID-19.
Many therefore wish for clear words from Sony. But currently, there is nothing to do but wait.
The world of MMORPGs is vast and diverse. Whether you dive into World of Warcraft in the Shadowlands, lead the Sith Empire to former glory in Star Wars: The Old Republic, or pet some Khajiit behind the ears in The Elder Scrolls Online, there is always something to do and something new to accomplish.
You are the Chosen One! … But so is everyone else
MMORPGs often try to strike a balance. On one hand, the game must provide a great experience for groups and thousands of players simultaneously, who can meet and interact in the game world. On the other hand, telling an interesting story is important, because a good narrative can keep players engaged for a long time.
This inevitably leads to the story becoming increasingly heroic and glorious over time. What began as a small, unknown adventurer or traveler inevitably transforms into the Chosen One. Whether you become the “Champion” in WoW or you are the chosen Jedi who will overthrow the Sith Emperor – our characters are always great heroes sooner or later.
The chosen Ashbringer – there are hundreds of them on every server.
In the “personal” story, all other players are mostly just side characters who get lost in the mass of soldiers or adventurers while the player’s character is elevated to a pedestal. However, this rarely diminishes the strange feeling that it is somehow surprising when all twenty paladins next to me also carry the unique, legendary weapon meant only for the Chosen One.
A problem that none of the current MMORPGs have convincingly solved.
Fetch Quests that send you across the wilderness
The game worlds of MMORPGs are extensive. After all, one of the great appeals of this world is that you can completely lose yourself in it. While exploring on your own is often interesting, long errands can become a chore.
In almost every game, you find these errands. Time and again, our hero – who is actually the epic savior of an entire land – is exploited as a mail carrier. These are the so-called Fetch Quests.
Fetch Quests cause screaming fits. At least sometimes.
So you meander through the game world for several minutes, trying to carve your way through unfamiliar maps, only to finally arrive at the camp at the “edge of the world” and report some guy about his wife’s troubles. This is usually rewarded with only a fraction of the experience points of a “real” quest.
This is particularly frustrating only when the errand ends with your character standing in a camp where there is nothing further to do, perhaps because the level is still insufficient. Then you want to slam your teeth deep into the keyboard and demand back the lost half hour.
At least: Most MMORPGs now offer shortcuts like mounts or the ability to teleport to the destination. But sometimes you just have to walk yourself – and that can be exhausting.
Women are healers. Always.
I’m sure that just reading the headline made you think of one or another lady from your guild or your environment, who always plays the dutiful healer in every dungeon or raid visit.
Many missions in MMORPGs are standard fare and follow a simple pattern. A few rogues need to be dealt with who have attacked the local farm. Or a plague of particularly large bears is causing chaos and must now be contained.
Particularly prominent examples of this category have long existed in World of Warcraft. For a long time, you were supposed to collect ears from trolls, only to become frustrated after a few minutes, finding that only every fifth troll has one or two ears. Looking even further back, in WoW Classic, there was the dreaded quest where players had to collect Zhevra hooves. Each of these animals actually has four of them. However, the developers probably found it funny to only give one to every fifth animal in the inventory.
No wonder then that players have become increasingly critical of new subscription games. After many games have inevitably slipped into Free2Play, subscription costs for new games were scrutinized. After all, it was just additional acquisition costs for the game spread over several months – for a game that would soon be available for free anyway.
Made a lot of money and then shift to Free2Play – players now fear this with every MMORPG.
The list of games that have gone this route is long. Big titles such as Star Wars: The Old Republic have been affected just like WildStar. While some survived the “fall” and recovered (SWTOR), others had to shut down shortly thereafter (WildStar).
Only a few of the major MMORPGs still cling to their subscription model – the most famous are probably World of Warcraft and Final Fantasy XIV. Most other MMORPGs have made the jump to Free2Play and now offer subscriptions only as a “bonus,” which then grants certain advantages.
In FIFA 21, the servers are down, and the EA servers are experiencing an outage. The big Rulebreakers event should have just started.
FIFA servers are down: The Rulebreakers event started at 7:00 PM, but it seems the servers could not handle the influx. Since 7 PM, players have been receiving error messages that the game cannot connect to the EA servers.
The FIFA servers are having issues
There is also no access via the Web App and Companion App. A connection to the server cannot be established. The error message emphasizes that registration is unavailable and players should log in via console/PC to enjoy the “complete FUT gaming experience.” However, even on the console, players cannot access online services like Ultimate Team.
Update, 9:32 PM: A new message was posted on Twitter, this time again from EA Help. The source of the problem has been identified, and they are working on a solution.

They are aware of the connection issues and want to keep players informed. However, no solution has yet been announced.
EA servers down right before the event and Weekend League
Actually, the new Rulebreakers event should just be starting in FIFA 21. There are new special cards – it’s possible that this caused a large influx to the servers.
Depending on how long the servers are down, this new connection issue could also affect the current Weekend League: In the past, the Weekend League has often been extended if such a situation arose and lasted longer. It is possible that the current round will also be extended.
Here you can find tips for the Weekend League so that you can achieve as many victories as possible when the servers are back online.
This is an AI-powered translation. Some inaccuracies might exist.
What is included in the event? In the event, players can secure the new “Rulebreakers” cards. These are special cards of players who receive unusual changes in their stats.
The cards can be obtained in packs if one has a bit of luck. They can also be found on the market. How to earn a lot of coins for transfers is explained in our trading tips.
Additionally, there will be special SBCs and weekly tasks that can earn players one of the new cards.
Overview of Rulebreakers Team 1
This is what the new cards can do: EA Sports announced via Twitter which cards are part of the first Rulebreakers team.

The cards have some very noticeable changes in stats.
For example, Dries Mertens receives a decrease in dribbling but a significant upgrade in shooting. This could mean that this Mertens version is more likely to shoot rather than dribble.
Harry Kane is known for his incredible shooting stats but is usually very slow. Here, the card has a speed rating of 91, which suddenly makes Kane a sprinter.
Douglas Costa from Bayern receives not only a 3-point increase in his overall rating but also a strong boost in shooting. However, he loses a little bit of speed.
Interesting cards in SBCs and tasks
This is still included in the event: The event comes with more special cards in the SBCs and weekly tasks. In the tasks, players can acquire a particularly interesting card for Bundesliga teams: The Rulebreakers variant of Nordi Mukiele, who is a strong option as a right-back.
Mukiele is available from tasks
Also unusual is the player from the Player-Pick SBC. Here you can secure one of two versions of Inaki Williams: One with a particularly high dribbling stat or one with a high shooting stat.
This is unusual: You can choose from two versions
Further Rulebreakers rewards are expected in live friendlies. These might soon be even more worthwhile – Friendlies are already fun anyway.
Rulebreakers instead of Halloween event?
Stat boosts usually came from the Ultimate Scream Event, which players had been expecting around Halloween. This role seems to be taken over by the Rulebreakers. As there will also be a second team, it is presumed that this will appear a week later – thus taking the slot for a Scream team for now.
However, EA announced on their official website that there will be Halloween content (via EA). From October 29th, SBCs and tasks will be available, featuring appropriate kits, stadium items, and pack rewards. What exactly this will look like, we will probably find out next week.
