The FIFA 21 “Top 1000 Ratings” are here, but there are a lot of errors in the database. EA says they are already working on it.
Here are the Top 1000 Ratings: After EA Sports published the Top 100 Ratings, these initially laid the foundation for the previous ratings. Additional ratings like lists of the fastest players or talents with potential were added.
Now the database has been expanded to a “Top 1000” even before the FIFA 21 release – a step that many fans have been waiting for. But anyone who looks at the database quickly sees: Something is not right.
Some players are still not with the right club. James Rodriguez, who now plays for FC Everton, is still shown with his old club Real Madrid.
All cards are displayed as rare Gold cards – even those like Trincao, from the talent list we already know should actually have a Standard Gold card.
The skill moves are apparently completely messed up.
James is still listed with the wrong club
The last point has caused the most discussion. A player like Ousmane Dembélé, who has already been confirmed as a 5-star skiller in FIFA 21, suddenly only has 2 stars. Meanwhile, Gianluigi Buffon has a total of 4 stars – as a goalkeeper. There are plenty of such examples. Clearly: Something does not add up here.
Dembélé is one of the best tricksters – but not according to the Top 1000
You can find the link to the database here (via EA Sports).
EA is already responding: After many fans expressed their views on the matter, EA’s communication channel also responded on Twitter.

They are aware of the “inaccuracies” regarding some of the players and are working on possible solutions. This will indeed be a mistake, and not as some have feared, simply very inaccurate ratings.
So we have to wait and see how exactly the Top 1000 will change in the coming days. Currently, it is unclear whether the other values of the cards will also be adjusted. The Top 1000 is already the second controversy within a few days – the announcement that there will be no demo for FIFA 21 caused skepticism.

In Destiny 2 you can now solve a new mini-quest that rewards you with an extremely rare item. But players are wondering: what is the mysterious login message about and what do they have to do on Mars?
This is the new quest: For the weekly reset on September 22, a new quest went online in Destiny 2. The so-called Helsom quest or “signal intercept” (eng. Signal Intercepted) can be quickly completed if you know where to look.
The task only gives you the hint to search on Mars and this mysterious message:
“CB.NAV/RUN:GEISTLAB:HELSOM”
MeinMMO shows you what you need to do to complete the task in 5 minutes and what rare, exotic reward awaits you at the end of the task. Finally, we clarify the sad background of the mini-quest.
“Signal Intercepted” & “Memory of Helsom” on Mars in Destiny 2
Many players wonder what the mysterious tip at the login screen is about. The task does not appear in your quest tab, and when you land on Mars, you will not receive a quest marker. Here’s what you need to do to successfully complete the “Memory of Helsom”:
Quest Step 1:
Land on Mars in the “Braytech Futurescape” area and head to the main building – that is where Ana Bray always stands in the entrance area
Keep left of the Hunter lady and let your Guardian climb a few stairs
You now run the path towards Rasputin in the Geistlab – but you don’t have to go that far
In the “Aurora expanse” area, you will find a long tube that you can slide down
Right after the tube, keep sharp right – here you will find a broom closet
Interact with the terminal inside
Right after this tunnel in the “Aurora expanse” area is your target on the right
With that, the quest is almost completed and you have your reward in your pocket.
Quest Step 2: Now return to Ana. She gives you information about Matt Helsom and the Exotic Cipher item. The task is likely account-bound, so you can only complete it once. But even if you start with the Hunter, the Titan can also pick up the item.
This is what the Exotic Cipher brings: The Exotic Cipher (eng. Exotic Cipher) is the rarest resource in the whole game. So far, each Guardian could only get one copy – from the current season pass of the Season of Arrival.
This rare item has two functions:
Since Xur was updated, you can trade the Cipher for another Exotic from the weekly Destiny engrams, completing your collection
With the Cryptarch Master Rahool, you can acquire a flagship Exotic from past seasons. These weapons are otherwise considered missed and cannot be found anywhere in the game
Both functions are aimed at players who do not yet own all the exotic weapons and armors from Destiny 2.
Keep in mind that the capacity of the Exotic Cipher is strictly limited to exactly 1 copy. So if you still have one, you need to use it first.
Here we weigh which exotic is most worth the item:
This is how Bungie honors a deceased developer: Matt Helsom, whose workplace we visit in the quest, was a real developer. Unfortunately, he has passed away, and Bungie honors the former colleague by immortalizing him in the story of the game.
In the quest, it states that Matt Helsom was a “cigar-smoking, whiskey-drinking explorer who hated flying” and came from the Golden Age.
He was a developer at Vicarious Visions, Bungie’s former partner studio, which was significantly involved in the creation of Mars.
In a few weeks, Season 5 of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and CoD: Warzone will come to an end. But what comes next with the start of Season 6? We take a look at what leaks, rumors, and official sources say.This is what is known so far.
When does Season 5 end? Season 5 is currently running for CoD MW and Warzone the Season 5, which recently brought new content for traditional multiplayer and battle royale with the Reloaded Update.
But if you take a look at the current battle pass, you’ll notice that Season 5 doesn’t have much time left. It ends on September 28 at 6:00 PM German time. So, what comes next?
This is why some doubted a Season 6: A leak that surfaced in early August from a CoD partner indicated that Season 5 of CoD MW and Warzone might be the last for this duo. Afterwards, they seem to want to focus on the new Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War (and Warzone), according to leaks from alleged insiders in Korea. This made some CoD fans nervous.
This is why there will be a Season 6: The Twitter account ModernWarzone, known for its accurate leaks and information, also initially shared this info but has since confirmed that there will indeed be a Season 6. The data reportedly includes entries for a total of 7 seasons – so far, mind you.

In addition, Season 5 ends well before the launch of Black Ops Cold War on November 13, and numerous changes and weapons have already been discovered by data miners, which are likely to come into play only with a new season.
It is thus certain that Modern Warfare and Warzone will still go into a shared Season 6 side by side. However, how things look afterward with the added CoD 2020 remains to be seen. It is quite conceivable that Black Ops Cold War will share the seasons with Warzone.
All about Season 6 in CoD MW and Warzone
Officially, as mentioned before, very little is known so far. However, numerous leaks and datamining results have already revealed some potential details that sound quite exciting and interesting.
CoD Modern Warfare & Warzone – Season 6 Start
When does Season 6 start? According to a “leak” from a professional team, Season 6 is set to start on September 29.

They accidentally revealed the start date for the new season while trying to draw attention on Twitter to an upcoming Warzone tournament that will celebrate the start of Season 6.
And the leak is indeed correct. In the first official trailer of Season 6, September 29 was also shown as the start date for Season 6.
Furthermore, the exact start time is now officially confirmed. Season 6 begins on September 29 at 8:00 AM German time.
Whether there will also be a preload on Xbox One and PC is unclear. By the way, the new update 1.27 is about 20.5 GB in size on PlayStation 4.
New Battle Pass for Season 6
What is basically set in stone is that Season 6 will come with a new Battle Pass.
Most likely, the new Battle Pass of Season 6 will not look very different
What does the new Battle Pass offer? Even though there are still no concrete details about the individual contents, all previous Battle Passes have had a similar structure, making it easy to predict what the next pass will roughly include:
The pass costs 1,000 CoD points or €10
There is also a bundle for 2,400 CoD points that includes 20 tier skips
Numerous operator skins with missions for even more skins
Additional cosmetics like calling cards, emblems, sprays, charms, or vehicle skins
Is the Battle Pass mandatory? To earn all rewards, you must purchase access to the premium reward branch (€10) and unlock the pass completely.
This is basically how every Battle Pass in CoD MW & Warzone has been structured so far
However, there is also a free reward path, where you receive fewer cosmetics, but nothing gameplay-relevant is missed. New base weapons, for example, always come through this free branch and can be earned by all soldiers.
What’s up with the new weapons? With every new season, CoD MW and Warzone introduce 3-4 new weapons into the game. This is unlikely to change in Season 6 either.
Although no new weapons are officially known yet, there are currently 4 new weapons in the data that have not yet made it into the game. There is a good chance that these will find their way into the game over the course of Season 6.
And in the new trailer for Season 6, the AS Val could already be admired. Moreover, the R700 appeared in an image in a blog post by Activision about Season 6. So the chances are good that at least these two weapons will be available for the new season.
There is still no trace of Soap, but with Farah and Nikolai, 2 other important characters from Modern Warfare return as operators for the new season.
What’s the status of new maps for multiplayer?
Here, nothing further is known yet. There have also been no really new, solid leaks that could have narrowed down the choice somewhat.
However, an older leak could provide insight. In November 2019, nearly 40 maps and over 20 game modes were leaked, many of which have since made their way into the game – such as the popular classics Crash, Shipment, or Rust. And not all maps from this leak are in the game yet. So it is quite possible that we might see one or the other missing candidate from the following list: 38 new maps and 23 modes for CoD Modern Warfare? Big leak raises hopes
Possible map changes in Warzone
Currently, 2 possible map changes are circulating in the community for Season 6, one of which is almost certain to happen.
The Metro: After a rail system with an armored train was added to the game world of Verdansk in Season 5, it now seems almost certain that in Season 6, the expansion or commissioning of the subway network will take place.
On the one hand, there have long been leaks about this:

Not only game data indicate this – at a professional tournament, a build was apparently already played where the subway stations were available on the Warzone map.

Moreover, the first trailer for Season 6 clearly indicated the introduction of the subway, along with a map:
This is what the subway network is expected to look like according to the trailer
The Nuke: For several seasons, there have been increasing hints that the explosion of a nuclear weapon in a Warzone bunker could either change the game world or even introduce a new battle royale map. So far, this has not happened, and many players are considering this possibility for the upcoming Season 6 as well.
The extra chances for good loot in World of Warcraft are disappearing. However, not all players like this; after all, loot is being lost.
The “Bonus Rolls” are a fixed part of the loot distribution in World of Warcraft and a nice opportunity for additional loot. However, with the upcoming expansion Shadowlands, this option will be removed. The player base is divided on this change, as there are pros and cons.
What were the Bonus Rolls? Since the expansion “Mists of Pandaria”, there have been Bonus Rolls or also Bonus Throws in WoW. This gives players the chance to roll for loot a second time when defeating certain bosses in the endgame. This previously allowed them to obtain multiple items from a boss or, with particularly bad luck, still get some loot. The Bonus Rolls are strictly limited. Each player can use only a few of them per week. By the way, there is no guarantee for bonus loot.
What about Shadowlands? With Shadowlands, Bonus Rolls belong to the past. The system will not be carried over to the latest expansion. On one hand, this eliminates the bonus chance for loot, but on the other hand, it also removes the obligation to acquire bonus coins every week.
Bonus loot is going away – but also RNG elements like Titanforging.
Why is Blizzard doing this? The developers want to pursue the philosophy “Loot is just loot” in Shadowlands. This means that there will be no additional effects like Titanforging or special procs like Corruption that can be on an item. The only random component left is whether an item drops at all or not – just as it was in Classic, The Burning Crusade, and Wrath of the Lich King.
Bonus Rolls were essentially another RNG element that has now been abolished.
Players are divided: The announcement is causing mixed reactions among the player base and seems to be splitting the WoW community into two camps.
One group is happy that the system is being removed. After all, they had to buy the bonus rolls expensively and were often “punished” because the bonus roll only brought in a few miserable gold coins or some artifact power.
The other group is more disappointed. There is already less loot in Shadowlands than in previous expansions. Losing another source of good equipment is perceived as excessive by many players. They hope that Blizzard will reconsider and allow Bonus Rolls again later.
What is your opinion on this? Should there also be Bonus Rolls in Shadowlands?

Today, on Wednesday, September 23rd, the Fortnite servers will be down on all platforms (PC/Mac, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, Android). During this time, the new update 14.20 will be implemented. What does the new patch bring?
What is happening today in Fortnite? The update 14.20 will be implemented on all platforms today. Fortnite Status announced the patch on Twitter. This is likely the 2nd content update of Season 4 – Chapter 2 and it could bring some changes.
Update 2:00 PM: The update 14.20 is now here and we show you in the German patch notes what has changed in the game.
Before players can go on an exploration tour and check out all the changes, as usual, the servers will be shut down.
Fortnite servers will be shut down – when and for how long?
Downtime starts in the morning: The downtime for update 14.20 starts at 10:00 AM German time. At 9:30 AM you can join a new round for the last time, afterwards the servers will be shut down and Fortnite will be down for a short time.
How long will the maintenance take? Based on experiences from the past weeks and months, the work should be completed around noon.
Before players can go on an exploration tour, Fortnite will be unreachable for some time
Technical problems or other delays may cause an extension of the maintenance work. If this is the case, you will be informed about it here on MeinMMO.
When will the patch notes come? Based on experiences with the respective updates in the new chapter of Fortnite, it is likely that there will again be no or only roughly explained patch notes for the battle royale mode.
If this is again the case, we will collect the most important changes and publish them in the form of German patch notes for you.
What new content does update 14.20 bring?
What new things will there be in the battle royale mode? Fortnite Status has hidden a small hint that could indicate the content of today’s update.
“A new update takes over” could be a hint that a new Marvel superhero might take up a location on the map. With update 14.10, the new location “Stark Industries” was taken over by Iron Man. So it could happen again today.
What does the update bring for the “Save the World” mode? The last update for Fortnite’s PvE mode brought back some spooky content. Everyone is already in the Halloween spirit there.
With a new cinematic trailer, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and CoD: Warzone set the stage for the upcoming Season 6. There is a specific release date, and a new weapon, new operators, and the subway network can also be seen.
What is the trailer about? Although many players are slowly shifting their focus to the new Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, CoD Warzone and Modern Warfare are by no means slowing down.
Shortly, the current Season 5 will end, and the new Season 6 will start. Thanks to a new trailer, we now know when. It also gives a brief look at some innovations of the now 6th season.
What does the trailer show? Nikolai and Farah, two well-known characters from Modern Warfare, fight their way through an abandoned subway station and get it operational again. Both are set to assist Captain Price in his fight against the mysterious terrorist leader Mr. Z (Zakhaev) in the Warzone.
Here you can watch the Season 6 trailer for CoD MW and Warzone:

Trailer shows map changes in Warzone and new weapons
When does Season 6 start? While there hasn’t been a specific time yet, the start date has already been revealed in the trailer. The new season of CoD Modern Warfare and Warzone will start on September 29, 2020.
It’s going underground – The subway is coming: As several leaks have already suggested, a Warzone metro is apparently being expanded and possibly put into operation in the new season. The trailer definitely takes place in a subway station, and at the end, the train departs. Additionally, a map of the metro network with 7 stations in the game world of Verdansk is shown.
The metro network of Warzone
Everything indicates that after the introduction of the rail system and the train on the surface, the Warzone will now be expanded with a subway network.
New weapon – AS Val: Also already known from leaks, a new weapon for Season 6 has now been shown. It is the Russian assault rifle AS Val, although the final name may still change.
On the left is the AS Val
This piece of hardware is seen multiple times in the trailer and is prominently showcased in several places.
Is the R700 coming as a second new weapon? The iconic sniper R700 has already been featured in several leaks, but is still not in the game. However, that might change in Season 6. Although the weapon is not seen in the trailer, a blog about the 2 new operators went online at Activision alongside the video. There, one of the new operators is shown with a weapon in hand that looks remarkably similar to the R700.
Is the R700 seen on the right?
New operators known from the campaign
2 new operators: Traditionally, new operators also come with the new season. Two of them have now been introduced in the trailer.
One of them is Farah from the campaign of the current Modern Warfare. She is the leader and founder of the Uszikstani Liberation Force – a rebel group fighting against the Russians.
She is one of the central figures in the campaign, and you will encounter her several times throughout the story.
On the other hand, the Russian Nikolai is also seen. He is a close and long-time friend of Captain Price, who has helped him many times – not just with weapons or ammunition.
Farah will be unlocked immediately upon purchasing the new Battle Pass for Season 6, while Nikolai will be available at level 100.
On September 22, Microsoft announced that it has acquired Bethesda and its parent company ZeniMax. The news caused quite a stir because many well-known game franchises belong to the company. We summarize the opinions of our readers on this.
With the acquisition, 2,300 employees from around the world joined the “Xbox Team”
Iconic game franchises were acquired, including The Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Wolfenstein, DOOM, Dishonored, Quake, and Starfield
These game brands are expected to be part of the Xbox Game Pass
However, the acquisition is not only met with enthusiasm and positive voices. Our readers here at MeinMMO are also very divided. The first article on this reached more than 110 comments.
In our comments, many readers see the deal as an opportunity for Bethesda, as many of you have been disappointed with the company’s recent titles.
Nexus1611 describes Bethesda’s situation very accurately and is rather indifferent to the news:
A few years ago, I would have been very interested in an exclusivity of the Bethesda brands and I would probably have switched to Xbox soon. But nowadays, all they release is rubbish. Except for ESO. Doom… okay. And Wolfenstein was great.
But what should come next? I can hardly imagine a new Fallout in the quality of New Vegas these days. TES 6… we’ll see. So far just a shrug at this news. I definitely wouldn’t switch because of that.
Also Luripu is currently not convinced by Bethesda:
So, when I think of the state of Bethesda games before the mod scene patches them to be playable, I’d rather get them for 10€ in the Game Pass than for 60€ on Steam.
For me, that’s good news.
The reader Horteo thinks the deal is good, also because Microsoft has handled indie games well so far:
Good for PC players. MS pursues a dual strategy with Xbox and PC. Thus, PC gamers can be sure to get a game like TES6 on their home computer without any Sony exclusivity deals.
Also good for Game Pass users; it will be further enhanced. Now we have the ZeniMax group in the Pass alongside EA.
It must also be mentioned that MS has always handled smaller studios carefully, which is good for indie games, etc.
I think it’s good if it would come to that. One can hope for a new Fallout and Elder Scrolls with a new engine. Additionally, Obsidian would be back for Fallout.
Concern about more exclusivity and disadvantages for players
One of the biggest concerns mentioned by you in the comments relates to other consoles. The Elder Scrolls Online can also be played on PS4, and TES V Skyrim is available on Nintendo Switch in addition to PS4.
But now that Microsoft is the owner of these licenses, some fear that new titles may not be released for other platforms, just like Sony handles Spider-Man.
Well, in the end, only we gamers will suffer. Anyone who claims otherwise is just a fanboy. This exclusivity that Sony has triggered will soon be a boomerang.
Microsoft simply has many more resources than Sony. I also believe that this was just the beginning. There will soon be another bomb that Microsoft will announce. We gamers “have to” own two consoles first…
Orobas Vectura on the other hand, assumes that Sony will also come up with something, which will be even more disadvantageous for players:
Okay, Microsoft has bought the company. But that’s certainly no reason to switch to Xbox. Sony will come up with something.
And that is precisely the problem; ultimately, the gamer is always the loser. The exclusivity of the games is increasing. In the future, one must consider which games are personally important and then choose the console accordingly.
Mc Fly sees the future, at least for Sony, very bleak:
Well, if players do not buy, then we will just buy the players… In the end, they will continue to buy studios and give the Pass for 1 Euro “for free”, until the supply of third-party titles for PS is no longer relevant and Sony throws in the towel.
Then it will be time for GamePass 360 and other subscription variants. Of course, there will be no more 1 Euro offers then.
However, there are also users who do not expect exclusivity, such as Cameltotem:
Based on the communication so far, I do not believe that Xbox will make things exclusive. By doing so, Phil Spencer would make himself quite unbelievable. It does not make things any better. Personally, I do not have many games with the studios I like. Doom maybe, but otherwise, I could also do without everything from them. But that is really a personal thing and is different for everyone.
A united world in Stadia?
What exactly comes out of the deal and whether it helps or harms the games and players will only be seen in the future. However, some of you also have a very different vision, namely of a united world through Google Stadia.
If you could play/stream PS5, Xbox, and PC games with Google Stadia, the whole issue regarding platform and similar would be irrelevant.
What if people could lend a console online to others and let them play with it? Naturally via “private streaming”. Would that violate the rules? After all, games can also be lent.
Also Daniel sees Google as a competitor that does not ramp up:
I also remember that MS back then was on the same exclusive track. But when I see what MS has opened up and simplified for players since then compared to how Sony treats exclusivity here and there as a counterpoint, I get quite anxious.
The topic of streaming fits very well here. We can all be glad that Google is not pushing with Stadia. If they seriously approached that, our gaming landscape would change drastically.
The 5th season of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare & Warzone is coming to an end, but wants to be remembered. For this, it brings out the big guns and delivers modes with plenty of action and appropriate Double XP.
What’s going on? Not much longer now, and possibly the last season for Modern Warfare will start. With Season 6 launching next week, CoD MW could celebrate its farewell and pass the seasonal baton to the new Black Ops Cold War. Warzone will go along with it and likely won’t see a new Battle Pass until the first season of Cold War. Here you can find more information about how Cold War & Warzone fit together.
But before it comes to that, Modern Warfare is doing everything to keep you entertained. Therefore, Season 5 is ramping up in the last week and brings modes that promise a lot of action – including Mini Royale for Warzone and split Shipment/Shoot House playlists. The Activision blog post with the weekly update reveals the following modes that will come after the update:
Update 20:20 – The playlist update is live. Here are the current modes of the playlists:
Playlist Update before Season 6 on September 22 brings Action & XP
When will the modes be available? The normal time for the “Modern Warfare” modes is Tuesday evening at 7:00 PM (September 22). However, it often happens that the update is delayed by a few minutes or hours. If there is no new playlist by 9 PM, it might start tomorrow morning at 8:00 AM (September 23).
You will already have to wait longer for the Warzone mode. Mini Royale will probably only come back on Thursday evening (September 24, 7 PM) or Friday evening (September 25, 7 PM). The exact time may still change here as well.
When is Double XP? These times are already set. You can use the entire weekend to complete your last levels in the Battle Pass or to level a pesky weapon – there is double XP on everything (weapons, levels, Battle Pass):
What can the modes do this week? For a few weeks now, Shiptember has been running, bringing you the popular “Shoot or Ship, whatever” playlist for a whole month. For the finale, the mode is split for a week, giving you the Shipment and Shoot House playlists individually as 24/7. For many players, these are the best playlists that the game has to offer.
The other two announced modes for CoD MW are more for connoisseurs. On the one hand, you can have sniper battles on the small Gunfight maps. As a 3-man team, you have the opportunity to elevate your quick-scope skills to a new level in a 3vs3 sniper gunfight. The objective moshpit delivers you the two modes Team Deathmatch-Domination (a mix of Domination / TDM) and Drop Zone (capture zones for killstreaks) on changing large 6vs6 maps.
For Warzone, Mini Royale is returning. This fast-paced battle royale reduces half the map, players, and match time, delivering the first and last 5 minutes of a typical battle royale. Get ready for constant enemy contacts and a quick end to the match – because after about 13 minutes, the winner is already determined. If you like Shipment in CoD MW, you will love this mode as well.
In Mini Royale, the map is already small at the start and promises a lot of action.
Cold War Alpha is making waves
What happened this week in CoD? Over the weekend, the first public test phase of the new CoD: Cold War took place, and PlayStation players were able to get a sneak peek. Here you can see the impressions for yourself:
The new CoD will be released on November 13, and before that, there will be two beta phases in which players on other platforms can also participate. Here you can find all the information about participating in the beta. Until then, CoD MW is still keeping its foot on the gas and has no intention of making room for the new installment on the fast track.

The car football game Rocket League launches as a F2P game and celebrates it in Fortnite. There are bonuses for both games – how does it work?
What’s happening with Rocket League: Starting September 23 at 5 PM, Rocket League will switch to a Free2Play model. The game will also land in the Epic Game Store – and requires, by the way, an Epic Games account even on Steam.
The Free2Play launch will then be appropriately celebrated in the game with a new event. But Rocket League is not the only place where it takes place: Fortnite is also involved in an event called “Llama-Rama”.
This is what the Fortnite-Rocket-League event looks like
What does Fortnite have to do with Rocket League?Developer Psyonix was bought by Epic in 2019. Fortnite and Rocket League essentially belong to the same stable. It seems they want to use this to promote the F2P launch of Rocket League.

Powerful loot in Destiny 2 is divided as follows: Powerful loot comes in several tiers, which grant you various power boosts. Accordingly, higher tiers also grant higher power boosts.
Tier 1 (up to +3 above the current Power level)
Tier 2 (up to +4 above the current Power level)
Tier 3 (up to +5 above the current Power level)
Peak Gear (+5 or more above the Power level. The only gear that goes over 1050 and up to a maximum of 1060)
For your information: Power levels gained through the new Artifact “Seed of Silver Wings” are not counted for calculating the power levels of your drops. The average of your gear and weapons is decisive here.

Artificial intelligences can do a lot these days and are constantly learning more. A player of World of Warcraft has thought about what it would look like if an AI turned well-known WoW characters into real people. However, the results are rather horrifying.
This is what the AI shows: YouTube user Miroslav Yegorov uploaded a video where the AI “PULSE” from Duke University brings various characters from World of Warcraft to life.
It uses images from the game or from cinematics and creates realistic photos of people based on them. It roughly shows what a video game character would look like in real life. However, it seems to struggle with some graphics and displays:
the demon hunter Illidan as a woman with crooked teeth
Anduin as an older, quite androgynous gentleman, possibly also as an older woman
the young Arthas as a relatively bald middle-aged man
Jaina Proudmoore as a kind of drag artist
Whether this is due to the quality of the AI or because it couldn’t process the images correctly, we can’t say for sure. We have embedded the full video here for you:

Many of the characters shown are still relevant or will be in the upcoming expansion Shadowlands. For example, Arthas was featured in the “Afterlife” video from Bastion alongside his former mentor Uther.
Since the Shadowlands represent the realm of the dead, we will encounter many characters from WoW’s lore again. The upcoming updates for the expansion may even hold more surprises.
However, Anduin, who is shown multiple times in the video, is currently trapped in the underworld, which presents a significant dilemma for Azeroth. After all, he is the King of Stormwind and the leader of the Alliance. Someone else holds the throne in his absence, who could possibly cause a new conflict.

After the announcement that Microsoft has acquired Bethesda, fans of PlayStation worried about whether the developer’s games will still appear on PlayStation 5. In a statement from Executive Producer Todd Howard, it sounds like they don’t have to worry about it.
This is what Howard says: In an official blog post from Bethesda, Todd Howard states that he is extremely happy about the Microsoft deal. With Microsoft, they have a partner that represents the values in which they also believe at Bethesda:
We share a deep belief in the power of games, their ability to connect, empower, and bring joy. And the belief that we should share this with everyone – regardless of who you are, where you live, or what you play on.
Especially the last section stating that it “doesn’t matter” what you play on sounds like future titles from Bethesda will be available on all major platforms – or at least not just exclusively for Xbox.
Fans are concerned whether the next Fallout will also come to PlayStation.
Whether he specifically refers to the upcoming PlayStation 5 is not clear from the statement. However, he couldn’t “imagine a better partner” than Microsoft for what he and Bethesda plan to do with their games.
PlayStation fans worry about Fallout & Elder Scrolls
Where does the concern come from? On September 21, Microsoft announced that it had acquired ZeniMax, and thus also Bethesda – for a whopping $7.5 billion. Now some of the most famous franchises are under Microsoft’s flag:
The announcement trailer for TES 6. Will it come for PlayStation 5?
The Xbox CEO himself raised further doubts on the topic by stating that such matters will be decided on a “case-by-case” basis. The cryptic statement caused even more anxiety among players.
Is there any news on Elder Scrolls and Co.? Howard briefly addresses how Microsoft’s acquisition will affect the development of upcoming games. He leads to “our most comprehensive engine revision since Oblivion,” which is supposed to make the newly announced Starfield and The Elder Scrolls VI possible. However, there are no details available yet.
Whether Fallout 5 and TES 6 will actually become Xbox-exclusive or not remains to be seen in the future. MeinMMO author Benedict Grothaus considers it quite unlikely – for several reasons. As a Fallout fan, he also thinks that the acquisition of Bethesda is a reason to celebrate.

In Borderlands 3 there will be no new Vault Hunters. Instead, the game provides you with additional skill trees – why?
Here’s what it has to do with DLC Vault Hunters: In previous Borderlands games, some of the Vault Hunters were added as DLC. This was the case for Krieg in Borderlands 2, who now plays a key role in the 4th DLC of Borderlands 3. Aurelia Hammerlock was introduced in the Pre-Sequel.
However, there will be no DLC characters in Borderlands 3. Gearbox made this clear early on. Instead, new skill trees for the Vault Hunters Zane, FL4K, Amara, and Moze will be added. Why did they choose this path?
There will be no additional Vault Hunters like Krieg
Skill trees are meant to bring more depth
Here’s the reason: As Creative Director Graeme Timmins explained to Paul Tassi from the US magazine Forbes, the goal has always been to add more depth to the game. “And we thought that the best way to achieve that would be to give more depth to the characters that players are already playing, instead of adding another group of characters,” Timmins said.
It is quite a challenge to level a character up to the endgame. That’s certainly true: after all, there are now a total of 65 levels to build your skills. Therefore, the focus has been placed on “more depth for players who have already recognized the value of this skill tree, rather than having to work through this tree again.”
FL4K’s new skill tree brings a Loader Bot
It doesn’t matter that they are holding anything back – like Vault Hunters for a possible Borderlands 4. “At no point in this decision was it about ‘could we reduce this investment to do things elsewhere’…” Timmins and his colleague Tommy Westerman are solely focused on making Borderlands 3 the “best Borderlands”: “At no point did I say, ‘Man, I should save some of this for something else.’ My goal is to make Borderlands 3 amazing.”
What are these skill trees?? The new skill trees will be released as part of another paid DLC. This was part of a series of innovations that Gearbox announced for the second year of Borderlands 3. FL4K’s tree was revealed first, introducing a new action skill called “Gravity Trap” and a new pet for the Beastmaster with the Loader Bot.
This evening, on September 22, maintenance work will be carried out in Destiny 2on PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Google Stadia for the new update 2.9.2.1. We summarize all information on the important times, the server downtime, and the patch notes.
What is happening today: In Season 11 of Destiny 2 a new update is on the agenda this Tuesday evening: the hotfix 2.9.2.1. This comes with several hours of maintenance work and a short server downtime.
Update 19:20: Bungie just reported via Twitter that the expected maintenance has been extended by an hour. Additionally, you should only be able to log in at 8 PM German time.

The update is now live on all platforms. The hotfix has the version number 1.59 on PS4 and is only 153 MB in size.
With the subsequent weekly reset, a special quest in honor of a deceased developer will go live. Furthermore, a new chapter of friendship between Microsoft and Bungie begins.
The farewell today is supposed to take place on Mars
Maintenance on 22.09. – Everything about the process and server downtime
Here are the important times:
Maintenance work will start at 5 PM on all platforms
At 5:45 PM the servers will go offline and the downtime will begin. If you are still in an activity, you will be kicked and unable to log in again.
At 7 PM the servers will go back online. Update 2.9.2.1 will then be rolled out worldwide
Once you have downloaded (and copied) the new update, you can start playing Destiny 2 again.
At 9 PM the maintenance work is expected to end – this has pushed the anticipated end back by an hour.
Important: Even after loading the update, there may be login issues or queues – until the maintenance is fully completed. During the maintenance, apps and third-party services related to Destiny 2 will only be partially available or may not work at all.
Bungie also announced that Xbox players may not see their purchases (DLCs, etc.) until the hotfix is fully deployed.
Update 2.9.2.1 makes Destiny 2 available in Xbox Game Pass
What’s in the hotfix: After today’s update, Destiny 2 will be fully available in Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass. Recently, there were even rumors that Microsoft wanted to buy Destiny 2 along with the studio – but Bungie refuted this.
With this, you can enjoy all the content of the free version of Destiny 2 as well as all paid content. This includes the expansions:
What about the patch notes for update 2.9.2.1 / 1.59 for Destiny 2?
This is what the patch notes say: Whether today’s hotfix 2.9.2.1 includes more than the unlocking of Destiny 2 in Xbox Game Pass, we will only know once the patch notes are released. Bungie will then list all the changes.

A new trailer for Destiny 2 Beyond Light shows what awaits players beneath the icy surface of the DLC location Europa. Two mysterious characters that players have been waiting for years are featured.MeinMMO takes a look at what else is hidden in the video.
New trailer for Beyond Light: Bungie released a new trailer for the upcoming expansion Beyond Light on September 22. The focus of the clip is this time on the DLC location Europa, the icy moon of the planet Jupiter.
The frozen surface, including ice lakes, snow-covered ruins, and alien artifacts is shown
Inside the celestial body, modern research facilities and laboratories are hidden
The trailer does not offer a contemplative panorama view but, to thumping music, also gives you a glimpse of the new Stasis abilities and scores with exciting action.

Who is speaking? In the trailer, two people speak to you:
Starting with the Fallen Variks (in the title image): There has been no trace of the character with the unmistakable accent for years. But we know that he was the one who initiated the outbreak in the Prison of Elders. Uldren was freed, and Cayde-6 found his tragic end – so we still have a word or two to say with this traitor.
Next, we hear the Exo-Stranger: This is the Destiny character who doesn’t have enough time to explain why they don’t have time. In Beyond Light, she is finally supposed to play a significant role. Guardians have been wanting to know what her deal is for almost 6 years – even Destiny director Luke Smith hinted that her non-ghost will become important.
In the trailer, we also briefly see a new weapon that, in old Bungie tradition, could be a new Exotic. There will also be a new mission where we get to take control of a tank, and the ominous pyramids make their appearance.
We also see new enemy types in action:
A new Vex Harpy: The unit flies above the Guardians, has glowing tentacles, and is about to launch a suicide kamikaze maneuver. Who else remembers these parts from the Gorgons in the Vault of Glass?
Fallen combat robots: Well, we know them for example as a raid boss in the Scourge of the Past and from short video snippets for Beyond Light. But now we see for the first time that they seem to be normal enemies that we face in a battle.
In the end, we see special Stasis Fallen: these use the icy powers of darkness like we do.
In the camera movements inside the underground complexes, we see the logo of Braytech. The corporation is behind the engrams, the race of Exos, and was founded by the family of our Hunter companion Ana Bray.
We also see an Exo body with a Vex robot together in a tank – very mysterious.
We already know that the new raid of Beyond Light is supposed to lead us to the Deep Stone Crypt, the birthplace of the Exos.
Finally, for a brief moment, a mysterious gate or portal appears, towards which a Guardian walks. Is this perhaps the entrance to the new raid?
How did you like the trailer? Until now, the focus of the trailers has always been on the new Stasis element; finally, we also know (a little) more about the new location. Did you find any exciting details with your eagle eyes?
The Twitch streamer Erind “Froste” Puka has gotten himself into some trouble. He has clashed with fans of the South Korean boy band “BTS” – and the fans want to take him down. They even wrote to his sponsor, asking what kind of racist scoundrel he is.
What kind of band is this? “BTS” is the biggest band in South Korea. They are so important and essential that a politician proposed, to create an exception for their military service, so they can stay together longer and make music.
In the West, the golden age of boy groups peaked in the 90s with the Backstreet Boys and Take That. There was another wave in recent years led by One Direction, but it’s actually a thing of the past.
In Korea, however, BTS is immensely popular.

This is what the streamer did: The Twitch streamer, Erind “Froste” Puka, made jokes at the expense of BTS. One particular comment ignited the wrath of the fans. Froste tweeted in March:
If BTS had the coronavirus, their fans would find a cure within 24 hours.
Even now in September, he made his disdain for BTS clear and brought up the tweet from March again.
The statement seems to be a red flag for BTS fans.
The joke was supposed to play on how fanatical BTS supporters love their band, but the comment had a more serious background than the streamer realized.
Fans snitch on streamer to sponsor, call him xenophobic
This was the reaction: After a Twitter shitstorm seemed to have little effect, fans wanted to hit the streamer where it hurts: in the wallet. The plan is based on the current “cancel culture”: If enough people are outraged, individuals who behave provocatively get in trouble (via twitter).
They circulated a form with a complaint email to Froste’s sponsor, G Fuel. Fans were supposed to modify some words in the email so it wouldn’t get caught in the spam filter, then sign it and send it to G Fuel.
The main points:
the streamer made racist and xenophobic comments and joked about the dangerous coronavirus
he mocked the fans and “white-washed” the names of the band
he additionally made derogatory comments about BTS and expressed himself in racially charged tweets about the band
But that wasn’t enough with the complaint: Apparently, fans also tried to hack his Twitter account. Additionally, the streamer apparently received some death threats: these were images from “SpongeBob SquarePants,” where characters were missing their heads.
The streamer takes it lightly. He says: hate cannot harm him. Because no one hates him more than he hates himself.
Apparently, there is a group you definitely shouldn’t mess with online: fans of South Korean boy bands.
If you are now curious about who BTS is and why they have such fanatic fans, we reported in 2018 about an appearance by the band on Jimmy Fallon. Even back then, BTS was strongly associated with Fortnite:
The MMORPG “The Wagadu Chronicles” (PC) is a new game developed by an indie studio from Berlin. It receives support from LoL developer Riot Games and has launched a Kickstarter campaign. We at MeinMMO reveal what makes the game interesting.
What kind of MMORPG is this? The Wagadu Chronicles is an MMO that places great emphasis on role-playing. According to its own statement, many of the developers have learned the old-school roleplay – with pen, paper, and dice.
This is intended to be reflected in the game:
The focus is not on grind or growing stats.
Instead, the background story and the current role of your character are at the forefront.
The entire MMORPG is supposed to revolve 100% around role-playing.
This focus is to be achieved by the MMORPG distributing rewards for good group role-play and offering a special dialogue mode that is activated when multiple players converse. This is intended to resemble dialogues with NPCs. Additionally, the developers plan to provide free updates with additional lore.
For small talk or questions around the topic of role-playing, there will be dedicated “Off-World Lobbies” where players can exchange ideas without jeopardizing role-play. In the game world itself, players will then slip back into their roles. This could make it one of the best MMOs for role-playing.
Furthermore, hate speech and trolling will be curtailed in the game through various moderation tools.

Who is behind the game? The Wagadu Chronicles is developed by Twin Drums, which is based in Berlin. It is an indie studio that claims to be largely composed of women, half of whom are Black, and a third of whom are queer employees.
This may be a reason for the interesting setting of the game, as it describes itself as an Afrofantasy MMORPG.
The characters in the MMORPG.
What can we expect in the game world? The Wagadu Chronicles offers an interesting setting. Even now, there is supposed to be a deep lore that has been written down in books beforehand.
Gameplay-wise, the MMORPG relies on skill presets, allowing you to assume the role of a druid or warrior, for example. However, you are not bound to this role. If desired, you can also respec and represent another class:
You do not assign your character to a “race”; instead, you choose from various lines with their own story.
You should have the option to choose from dozens of abilities.
These abilities range from levels 1 (beginner) to 5 (master).
Not all skills seem to be aimed at combat; exploration and cartography are also supposed to be skillable.
Additionally, players receive a free bundle of XP every day, called Memories, so they can learn new skills even if they are just walking around and talking to other players. This is primarily to combat grind.
Moreover, there are temporary skills that you can find in the world and can be used for several minutes or up to an hour.
The economy, on the other hand, is supposed to be in the hands of players, like in most sandbox MMORPGs. All equipment is supposed to be editable by players with the right skill, preventing all armor from looking the same.
However, your equipment can be stolen if you die.
This is what the game and the crafting interface currently look like.
What does the endgame look like? The game world consists of so-called totems. They serve as:
Spawn point upon death
Safe zone
provide a farming bonus
allow player housing
Unclaimed totems can be taken over by players so that they can expand there. However, tasks must be completed for this.
These tasks must also be completed weekly and should differ greatly from totem to totem. If multiple groups dispute over a totem, the one that contributes the most to the totem’s task wins.

Kickstarter and Riot Games
How is the MMORPG funded? In June, Riot Games announced that they want to commit more to social justice. They promised to provide $10 million for investments and start-ups focusing on underrepresented founders in the gaming community.
This includes Twin Drums, the studio from Berlin.
In addition to Riot Games’ support, the developers are also relying on Kickstarter. They raised 20,000 of the 100,000 euros for their campaign within a few hours.
For the birthday event in Fortnite: Battle Royale, you will likely receive 2 weapon skins as gifts. Data miners are now showing what these will look like.
When is Fortnite’s birthday? Fortnite was released on September 26, 2017. Around this date, players expect the developers to celebrate the special occasion with them again this year.
So far, Epic Games has celebrated every year when their colorful shooter had its birthday. In previous years, the Battle Bus, which flies players to the game island at the beginning of a match, has been decorated. This year, players also expect cosmetic items that can only be picked up in the game for a limited time. After the birthday event, these will likely disappear again.
2 new weapon skins for the birthday event?
What gifts have been found? Data miner FortniteFevers believes he has already found 2 of the weapon skins that will be brought into the game for Fortnite’s birthday event in 2020. According to leaks, the skins are still in development and are not yet the finished product.
In the first image, you can see the weapon skin in a green tone. Various confetti graphics are scattered on the weapon.
The second skin resembles a birthday cake with icing.
On Twitter, the data miner shows how both skins would look in the game in this state when worn.
It is assumed that Epic Games has more gifts in store for you for the third birthday and that the rewards are not limited to just two weapon skins. However, what exactly the developers have planned is still unclear.
During the week, there may be more details on how Epic Games plans to celebrate the anniversary of its shooter with you.

In Pokémon GO there is a spotlight hour with Habitak this evening, September 22. The event seems disappointing at first glance, but is that true?
What is a spotlight hour? This event takes place every Tuesday and puts a Pokémon in the spotlight. Additionally, there is a bonus that you can take advantage of.
When does it start? As usual, the hour starts at 6:00 PM local time. You can take advantage of the bonuses until 7:00 PM.
What bonuses are there? Of course, the spawns are generally increased again, and you will find Habitak everywhere. In addition, there are double XP for evolving Pokémon.
On the way to level 40, you can still collect extra XP today.
Why is there criticism? Both the Pokémon and the bonus are disappointing for many trainers. Habitak cannot be shiny, so you can only hunt a weak Pokémon that is already quite common.
The double XP for evolutions is also not beneficial. You can make about 140,000 XP in an hour if you evolve fully and use a lucky egg, but that is relatively low. For a normal ultra friend, you get instead 100,000 XP and have to spend significantly less. For many, therefore, the XP and the max level are not worth much anymore.
There is a lot of criticism on various channels. A user on Twitter writes: “How can you implement non-shiny Habitak as this complete waste of time?”

Another user says: “I won’t waste any of my time on this non-shiny.”
So is it not worth it at all? If you’re still hunting for experience points, you should play the hour comfortably from the sofa. There you can evolve some Pokémon and collect XP.
If you don’t need XP as urgently, you can skip the hour comfortably. The following week it will get exciting again when a shiny comes with Eneco.
