In the new action RPG Magic: Legends, a kind of Dungeon Master or director ensures that you are always faced with challenges and that quests never become too frustrating.
What gameplay mechanics did the developers introduce? Perhaps you know the situation: you find yourself in a hack and slash scenario where you just can’t progress. This can lead to frustration. Or it flows so well that the game presents no challenge at all.
Exactly here is where the “Director” feature of Magic: Legends comes into play. The Director monitors your gameplay progression and recognizes whether you are progressing well or poorly. Accordingly, it adjusts the quests for you. Essentially, it modifies the missions in real-time so that you are never too frustrated or feel underwhelmed.
The Director monitors you in Magic: Legends and adjusts the quest accordingly.
A director adjusts the quests in Magic: Legends for you
How exactly does this feature work? The Director, or “director”, changes when and where which monsters spawn. While in other hack and slashes, you always find predetermined monsters at specific points in the levels, this is not the case in the exciting action RPG Magic: Legends.
As you fight your way through the game areas, monsters appear that are selected for you based on your play style. If you are progressing slowly, easier enemies with weaker powers will appear. If you are progressing too well, a legendary monster may show up that possesses special powers with effects like Deathtouch, Chilled, or Swiftness, putting you up against a tough challenge.
Additionally, the Director may decide to give you a break and sprinkle a calm segment into the quest. The system works in such a way that the intensity of the missions is meant to feel like a roller coaster ride.
Thanks to the Director, you can encounter monsters that use special powers, such as Swiftness.
What is special about this feature? Essentially, you receive individualized missions with challenges tailored to you and your current play style. The quests still provide predetermined elements; after all, they are telling a story. They are therefore not completely generated during gameplay.
What do you think of this system? Would you prefer static missions with predetermined enemies, or do you think the Director is good? If you want to check out other exciting action role-playing games that you (hopefully) can play soon, take a look at the MeinMMO article “9 new hack and slashes coming in 2020 while you wait for Diablo 4”.

In Valorant, the choice of which agents to include in your team is often difficult. However, when it comes to the professional player Hiko from 100 Thieves, the spy agent Cypher certainly deserves a place in any team.
Who is Hiko and what has he said? Spencer “Hiko” Martin is a pro gamer in Valorant and plays as team captain for the eSports team 100 Thieves. They hosted one of the first Valorant tournaments during the beta.
Hiko, who has previously commented on the advantages of Omen, has now presented another assessment for an agent. This time it is about the cunning spy Cypher. According to Hiko, he should really be in every team. But why is that?
Cypher looks funny, but is very dangerous.
That’s why Cypher belongs in every Valorant team
Who is Cypher? Cypher is an agent that comes across like an old-fashioned spy. His huge hat and gadgets are clear identifiers. Cypher uses recyclable cameras that he can control at any time to monitor areas on the map.
Furthermore, he can set tripwires that also send a warning when triggered. Lastly, he can place “Cyber Cages” as traps that slow down opponents and obstruct their vision. His ultimate, in turn, reveals the position of all enemies on the map.
So when it comes to reconnaissance and information, Cypher is the top agent in the game. And that is exactly what makes him so important for professionals.
This is what makes Cypher so good: According to Hiko, Cypher – alongside the immensely useful healer Sage – is an S-Tier hero, meaning an absolutely superior agent, whose choice is actually a no-brainer. This surprised some of his stream viewers. They found Cypher strong, but not “S-Tier Strong”.

However, Hiko explained in the Twitch stream how he came to this bold assessment. “Cypher was S-Tier during the beta.” Because Cypher brings invaluable features to the team. If someone doesn’t have a Cypher, they always have to secure their flanks and deploy players for that. But thanks to Cypher’s cameras and traps, the flanks are protected, allowing the entire team to focus on one thing in the game. The flanks are still secure, though.
Additionally, the Cyber Cage is a useful “smoke,” a type of smoke grenade that obstructs vision. Such effects are important in Valorant, as one can sneak up on snipers or prepare for attacks.
Moreover, Cypher is included in nearly all pro teams:
“Looking at Cypher’s pick rate this weekend, I believe literally 95 or 99% of all teams on all maps chose Cypher… His cameras, the amount of information he gives you, his cages that act like smoke… he really makes it very hard for your team as attackers to initiate a flank attack.”
The first nerf for the killer “Pyramid Head” in Dead by Daylight is now live. It is due to campers who have used his ability “incorrectly”.
The killer Pyramid Head, known as “The Executioner” in Dead by Daylight, has been live for several weeks. However, many players may have quickly grown annoyed by him, as some have used him quite abusively. Now there has been the first nerf, which should ensure that Pyramid Head can no longer camp as effectively as before.
What was the problem? The killer could trap his victims in a cage of torment under certain circumstances. Survivors would then sink into the ground and reappear in a cage at a random location on the map – usually quite far from the killer. However, the killer could see the aura of both the cage and the captive. This meant that many players, when playing as the killer, rushed directly to the cage to wait and camp there, just like at a hook.
Cages disappear when the killer camps
What has changed now? When Pyramid Head now traps a victim in a cage, he can no longer see where that cage is located. It is thus significantly more challenging to camp at this cage and ensure that the survivor cannot be rescued. If Pyramid Head does find the cage and stays “too long” in close proximity to it, the cage will automatically dissolve and reappear, along with the survivor, at a different location.
What else has changed? Aside from these balancing changes, the patch also brought a lot of bug fixes. Many minor issues with killers, protective hits, blood points, or the spawn behavior of items in the blood web have been addressed. The birthday cakes now grant 104% additional blood points as intended, and their effect is stackable. Additionally, the current event for the 4th anniversary of Dead by Daylight has been extended by one week.
Cortyn says: Honestly, I am quite divided about this change. I can absolutely understand that something needed to be changed because the moments when Pyramid Head camped at the cage were simply piling up. However, I find the “disappearance of the cage” to be the least elegant solution that could have been made. The fact that the cage simply changes location seems, not only from a “story perspective”, illogical to me but just feels wrong. I would have preferred a change that makes rescuing from the cage a spontaneous action and possibly grants the rescued “borrowed time”.
What do you think of the patch and these adjustments? Well resolved, or would something else have been better or more elegant?

On July 7, the next patch – Update 2.9.1 – is coming to all platforms for Destiny 2. Bungie has already given a preview of the changes that Guardians can expect.
What’s coming for Destiny 2? This coming Tuesday, July 7, there’s a lot happening around Destiny 2.
On one hand, the next new content of the ongoing Season 11 – the Moments of Triumph – is starting. In the form of the Moments of Triumph, Bungie traditionally looks back at the past Destiny year with players and celebrates this with Guardians. Players are tasked with completing specific triumphs and can earn some cool rewards in the process.
On the other hand, July 7 is traditionally the annual Bungie Day – a celebration around all things Bungie and the community that has been held for over 10 years. Usually, there are some events to participate in, chances to win something, and sometimes a sneak peek at upcoming content.
Additionally, a new update – Update 2.9.1 – is due to arrive. This brings the Moments of Triumph into the game and according to Bungie, it will “bring a lot of bug fixes” for the Season of Arrival. Accordingly, the studio has already provided a preview of what changes Guardians can expect in this context.
Update 2.9.1 for Destiny 2 – Patch Notes Preview
With this patch, Bungie aims to fix numerous bugs with the new Contact Event, the associated weapons, and in other areas of the game that currently annoy Guardians. Among other things, the following changes will be made:
Contact Events:
A problem will be fixed where the Heavyweight Triumph did not record progress when bosses were defeated.
A problem will be fixed where Guardians could collect and surrender a full 15 particles in the Contact Event before they had activated the required Rank Reward at the Prisma-Umformer.
Contact Weapons: Here, unfortunately, the damage bug with the currently best sword is being fixed. However, a positive change for the sword is also coming.
A problem will be fixed where the pulse rifle Cold Denial and the sword Falling Guillotine did not have two perks in the last column, even though the Umbral Upgrade III at the Prisma-Umformer was already activated.
A bug will be fixed where the sword Falling Guillotine could continue to deal damage to enemies after the animation of its heavy attack was already over.
Problem with Catalysts:
Reissued Seraph weapons did not grant progress for catalyst progress and objectives. This will now be fixed.
The raid gear has been updated to now have maximum infusion limits of the Season of Arrival.
Weekly Vanguard Bounties:
The mock, Cabal, Vex, and Fallen variants of the Weekly Bounties from the “Season of Arrival” pool have been removed.
Keep in mind that this is a sample excerpt and not a complete list. A listing of all changes will be provided on July 7 in the form of official patch notes.
Good news for all Fallout fans: The classic game series is now coming to TV. Amazon Studios and the creators of “Westworld” have teamed up to work on the project.
Fallout as a series: A vast, post-apocalyptic wasteland, mutants, and lone wanderers – it’s no surprise that this setting is suitable for a series. After all, there are plenty of exciting stories within the Fallout games that are worth experiencing.
Apparently, Amazon agrees, as their studios have now secured the rights to the franchise. “Fallout is an iconic global franchise with legions of fans worldwide and a rich, deeply engaging story that drives them,” explained Albert Cheng from Amazon Studios in an official statement: “We’re excited to bring Fallout to television alongside Bethesda.” There’s even a little teaser already:

And for that, they have brought on exciting people – namely producer duo Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy from Kilter Films, who are also behind the series Westworld.
The series is about a theme park populated by so-called synthetic “Hosts.” These are lifelike copies of human beings – almost like the “Synths” from Fallout 4.
Real people come to Westworld to experience exciting adventures – initially only in a Wild West world, later also in other settings. It’s essentially a vast role-playing game – except, the park is surrounded by a dark secret and not everything is as it seems.

A little bit of video game DNA is therefore present in the series, especially the desert from the first season somewhat resembles Fallout.
The two producers could be just the right people for such a series and seem to know the games well: “Fallout is one of the greatest game series of all time. Each chapter of this wildly imaginative story has cost us countless hours that we could have spent with family and friends,” explained Nolan and Joy.
Todd Howard from Bethesda Game Studios also emphasizes how happy they are with the choice: “In the last ten years, we’ve looked at many possibilities to bring Fallout to the screen,” said Howard: “But from the moment I first spoke with Jonah and Lisa a few years ago, it was clear that they and the team at Kilter would do it right.”
In Pokémon GO the Community Day with Nebulak has finally been scheduled. So far, there was knowledge of Nebulak, but the exact date and the bonuses were not known yet
What is now known: In May we were able to choose the coming two Community Days. While it was about Hornliu in June, the choice in July fell on Nebulak. No further information was available so far.
However, now more is known, as Niantic has announced the bonuses and the date for the Community Day.
Community Day with Nebulak – All Bonuses
When does the Community Day take place? It starts on July 19 at 11:00 AM local time. The event will run for another 6 hours until 7:00 PM. Thus, the Community Day will take place on a Sunday this time.
What are the bonuses? Apart from the numerous Nebulak that will appear in the wild, there are the following bonuses:
Incense lasts for 3 hours
Eggs will be hatched four times faster – a 10-kilometer egg only needs 2.5 kilometers
A special research can be purchased for one dollar in the shop
What is the exclusive attack? If you evolve an Alpollo to Gengar during the event, it learns the attack Shadow Punch. This was already known beforehand.
The attack is especially interesting for PvP players. A detailed analysis of the attack and the usefulness of Gengar can be found in another article on MeinMMO.
The shiny family of Nebulak.
Is the event worth it? With Nebulak, a Pokémon that has already been available as shiny receives a Community Day. However, if you still need a shiny Nebulak, you can expect an increased shiny rate here.
For raids, Gengar is definitely a good choice among ghost Pokémon, but there is stronger competition here. However, those who are still at the beginning of their Pokémon career should secure a good Nebulak and evolve it.
During the Community Days, Pokémon GO also revolves around the preparation for the GO Fest. A three-week event marathon takes place during this time.

In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Warzone there are changes in the playlist. Now there is a Juggernaut mode in Battle Royale. Additionally, there are XP bonuses. This is really worth it, as the MW playlist is also optimally suited for leveling up.
This is the playlist update: On Twitter, Infinity Ward announced that after the playlist update this morning, another change has occurred:

Today, July 2, marks the start of not only 2 of the best playlists at Modern Warfare, Shipment and Shoot House as 24/7, but also a brand new mode for Warzone.
This is the Juggernaut mode: In Warzone, you can now compete in “Juggernaut Royale Trios” and duel as Jugger.
What’s included in the update: Along with the playlist update, an XP weekend also started tonight. The bonuses have been active since 7:00 PM and include:
Double XP
Double weapon XP
Double points for the Battle Pass
Why is this worth it now? The bonuses combined with the new playlists are really strong. You can now be on the small maps and quickly gather XP and also level up your weapons.
Shipment and Shoot House promise many kills, and with the double points, you can quickly rank up and advance in the Battle Pass of Season 4. You can even choose between the maps – you should spend most of your time where you are better.
Both maps function similarly and are very popular with fans. Even as a solo player, you have no major disadvantages, and often complete chaos reigns. However, very few players leave without kills, and you can rack up a lot of XP.
The Juggernaut mode is definitely also good for leveling up. After all, you are well protected in the Juggernaut suit and can mow down many things. At least if you can secure one of the Jugger crates.
How long can you take advantage of the bonuses? The XP bonuses last for 5 days, until next Tuesday. If you want to achieve a few ranks, you should take advantage of this weekend.
On Thursday evening, Ubisoft presented its new Battle Royale, Hyper Scape. It surprisingly kicked off on Twitch – and it makes sense, as the matches are closely tied to the platform.
This is Hyper Scape: As already revealed in leaks a few days ago, Hyper Scape is a new Battle Royale from Ubisoft. It offers quite fast-paced gameplay in a futuristic world. Players compete in teams of three, and a match accommodates 99 players – so at least 33 teams are fighting for victory.
How Hyper Scape was showcased: On Thursday evening (July 2, 6 PM), a flurry of streams suddenly started on Twitch, providing the first impressions of Hyper Scape.
That the first presentation took place on Twitch makes sense, as the game integrates Twitch chat directly into the matches.
What we know about Hyper Scape
Ubisoft hasn’t released too many official details yet, but the streams on Twitch give a good impression of the game.
In the video about the new Battle Royale, you will find an initial gameplay analysis
Classic fight for victory: In the futuristic world, you land as a team of three and fight, typical of Battle Royale, to the bitter end for victory. A large city was showcased where many houses are freely accessible – as long as you enter through golden windows. Overall, you move pretty quickly: sprinting, ducking, sliding – all of this is possible.
As with other Battle Royales, the focus after landing is on quickly equipping yourself. From crates and the ground, you’ll quickly find different weapons and gear that you can level up in Hyper Scape. An unusual feature: The Twitch chat can actively participate in the events through an extension.
In Hyper Scape, you also search for loot crates
This is the role of the chat: The Twitch chat can vote live on in-game events. It can suddenly happen that gravity is nullified or players become visible on the map for others. Depending on which way the votes go.
It will also likely be possible to join lobby sessions of streamers you are currently watching via the extension.
Hyper Scape distributes access through Twitch Drops
For this, your Twitch account needs to be linked with Ubisoft. You can find a detailed instruction on the official Ubisoft page. Additionally, the streamer must have “Drops enabled” to allow you the drop. Once you receive a drop, you can switch to the Uplay launcher, which you can find at this link.
On which platforms will the game run? Hyper Scape will be released on PS4, Xbox One, and PC. It is a Free2Play title that, like Fortnite, features an in-game shop. However, this will only offer cosmetic items and no gameplay advantages.

In GTA Online a new bonus week with offers has started. The Oppressor Mk II is now even available for half price. In addition, the Independence Day celebration begins this week with many items making a return.
What is happening in GTA 5 Online? On Thursday, July 2nd, the new bonus week for the multiplayer of GTA 5 started. For you, this means that you can now earn more money in various activities.
How much does the motorcycle cost now? The flying motorcycle is now available with a 50% discount. Players will therefore only pay 1,462,500 GTA$. Those who haven’t unlocked the cheaper price through the DLC will pay 1,945,125 GTA$. If you wanted to get this powerful motorcycle, now is the time to act.
But be aware that “Mk II” owners who grief with it are among the most annoying player types in GTA Online. After all, you can fly with it, shoot rockets, and terrorize every player.
Independence Day is celebrated big
For Independence Day, which is celebrated on July 4th in America, there are several offers in GTA Online this week that perfectly match the festive occasion. Weapons, clothing, masks, and vehicles in blue, white, and red can currently be found in the shops of GTA 5 Online with a 50% discount.

The podium vehicle is typically American
The podium car has changed: The vehicle that you can win at the casino has also changed. You will now find the Sovereign there. The motorcycle screams USA and fits perfectly with Independence Day.
With the podium vehicle, you can truly be American this week
Where can you save now? Additionally, there are some discounts on vehicles and facilities this week. These items are on sale:

If you still lack the necessary funds for your next investment, you can see ways to quickly earn money in GTA Online.

Originally, Conan Exiles was announced as a strong survival MMO as a free game for the Epic Games Store. However, shortly before the release, Epic retracted.
What was intended: Originally, two new free games were supposed to be waiting for you in the Epic Games Store on July 2nd at 5 PM. These were the puzzle-adventure “Hue” and “Conan Exiles” – one of the best survival MMOs ever.
Epic changes its mind: Instead of both games, now only “Hue” will be the free game this week. In the case of Conan Exiles, the Epic Games Store team changed its decision, as it announced just less than an hour before the scheduled release time:

However, this is not a postponement of the free game, but a completely new plan. Instead of offering “Conan Exiles” for free, the game will be available for purchase in the store “at a later time”.
Fans unhappy with Conan decision
Here are the reactions: For the most part, the decision is taken negatively. Some fans feel reminded of “The Escapists 2”, which was also supposed to come as a free game a few weeks ago and then did not appear. The difference: In the case of “The Escapists 2”, the free release was merely postponed to the coming week due to errors.
In contrast, Conan will not appear as a free game at this point. By the way, Epic did not provide further details on the reasons for this.
“You better not do that with Escapists 2 too,” expressed a user (via Twitter) already worried about the previously postponed game.
Another user sees the process as “False Advertising” (via Twitter)
Another suggests: “Then make ‘Save the World’ free instead” (via Twitter) – this is the PvE mode in Fortnite, which recently caused a lot of excitement.
So anyone who hoped to get Conan Exiles as a free game from the Epic Games Store soon will have to look for something else for now. By the way: Those who already own Conan Exiles but have seen everything should check out the numerous mods. They can turn Conan Exiles into a completely different game.

The coop RPG shooter Outriders presents itself from an exciting side in its latest broadcast. It is reminiscent of a mix between Diablo and Anthem. MeinMMO also spoke with the developers from People Can Fly, the studio behind Outriders.
What is Outriders? The coop shooter was first presented at E3 2019. Several styles are mixed, resulting in something completely new.
The developers compare themselves most to Diablo, particularly highlighting the RPG factor. It is also meant to be a loot shooter, where you meet in hubs and start missions from there.
Now there is a new broadcast about Outriders. This one presents the game’s story in more detail, but also provides exciting insights into the structure of Outriders.
This is the broadcast: In their 2nd broadcast about Outriders, they talk about the game for a total of about 30 minutes, with recurring insights into the game:

Read more about our privacy policy.
What stands out? At first glance, the shooter looks like Destiny or Anthem, and that is quite accurate. Especially the comparison to Anthem is compelling in many respects. However, one of the biggest differences is the developers’ concept. Outriders is not a Game-as-a-Service game, while Destiny or Anthem are.
The comparisons with Anthem are quite obvious:
There are hubs from which you can start your missions
Your character has not only weapons but also abilities that can be leveled up.
There is loot everywhere – Outriders is just like Anthem a loot shooter
Many enemies and the setting often remind one of Anthem
It plays on one planet and not on several or even in space
What do the developers say about the comparison? Looking more closely at Outriders reveals that a comparison also becomes more apparent: It often reminds one of Diablo.
That’s exactly what the developers say about their game. In our interview with Bartosz and Bartek, the two heads of People Can Fly, we discussed a comparison with other games.
We want to compare ourselves to Diablo. The game is becoming more and more the fantasy slasher that was our greatest inspiration. […] We want to invest more effort in the skills and the item-based gameplay rather than just in a shooter game.
We want to add a strong story to create a foundation for the game, to make it larger and to expand it more to other countries.
People Can Fly on Outriders
Are there gameplay insights? If you want to see more of Outriders, we recommend the video from our colleagues at GameStar. They were able to test the shooter:

Outriders is supposed to be an RPG shooter for everyone
Can a shooter fan have fun? Although the developers themselves draw the comparison to Diablo, there should also be something for shooter fans. The mix between RPG elements and shooter elements is important.
The developers respond to the question of whether shooter fans can also have fun as follows:
Outriders still requires mechanical skills like a shooter. Your aim, reload management, and positioning are important. But we have also added great opportunities for power selection, cooldown management, and power combinations to this core shooter gameplay.
Moreover, we have itemization and class builds that require mastering the synergies between your equipment, your powers, and your class builds to maximize your character’s strength.
People Can Fly on Outriders
Your classes in Outriders have not only weapons but also abilities
Can you only play in a team? Outriders is aimed at every type of player. It doesn’t matter if you’re alone or playing in a team, Outriders adapts to you.
This way, your friends can continually join or leave the game. Depending on the number of players, the enemies will adapt and you will face more foes. The difficulty of the bosses will also increase with the number of players.
The developers emphasize that playing in single and multiplayer can be quite different. If you want more loot and a greater challenge, you should play in multiplayer.
An exciting concept – with a future?
What do the developers promise? Outriders is supposed to be finished and fully playable at launch. The story is said to last 40 hours and include 20 chapters. So you should have plenty to do right from the purchase of the game.
That remains to be seen: Outriders connects many concepts together, which certainly provides an exciting, new gaming experience.
However, it must prove that it can remain relevant after the release. Outriders does not rely on Game-as-a-Service, but it still needs to keep players entertained.
What does the developer say about it? The developers haven’t shared too many impressions about the endgame of Outriders yet. It is also not stated whether we can expect raids or similar content.
We can say that much more will come for the endgame, such as new difficulties, and you can also return to side quests that you haven’t completed yet, or to bounties for better rewards.
People Can Fly in an interview
However, if Outriders can make the endgame exciting and avoid the same mistakes as Anthem, then the new shooter could be a real hidden gem for all fans of Destiny, Diablo, and Co.

Method was the top European guild in PvE for a long time in World of Warcraft. However, following a scandal involving one of their raiders, the guild is currently dissolving. One of the top German players from Method, the mage Fleks, describes on Twitch how he feels. You can hear that a life is collapsing.
This is the scandal: Since 2019, there have been allegations against the player MethodJosh, a healer, that he sexually harassed women. He was banned from Twitch. There was even a police investigation against the player, which, however, ended without results.
As a result, the guild leadership was accused of ignoring many warnings against the player for too long. Method broke apart over this scandal: Many guild members, raiders, partners, and streamers have distanced themselves from the guild, although the allegations are only out there for now.
The guild Method is in dissolution.
“I thought I knew the guy”
This is what the raiders say: The scandal surrounding Method has stirred the WoW community in recent days. Two of the top raiders from Method described in a stream how they felt after the allegations became known. Both have now announced their resignation from Method. Both were part of the raid group that managed to achieve many “World First Kills” in WoW :
the Norwegian Narcolies plays a Blood Elf Paladin
the player Fleks plays a Troll Mage – he is one of 8 Germans who is part of Method’s raid roster
The German player Fleks is clearly overwhelmed. He says he can hardly eat or drink anything for the past 3 days. He has only been surviving on a few beans. In the stream, he says, emotionally moved:
“I thought I knew the guy. I believed his side of the story and then I was totally wrong. Now it turns out that I knew this person who did so much wrong and caused so much pain. It feels so bad. I don’t know what to say about it.
Everyone in the guild, every time we questioned him in Teamspeak, he had the perfect answer. […] Every time we said: “Maybe there is more to it? Maybe there is something?”, he brought a screenshot that showed he was right and we should believe and trust him. And everyone in the guild did just that.”
The WoW raider Fleks
Fleks chastises himself for not listening to the voices of the victims and for trusting the man he once considered his friend.
Later he says: “He deceived us all.”
Fleks describes how Method raiders came under fire for supporting their comrade because they were convinced of his innocence.
One of the raiders, the Greek officer “RogerBrown”, publicly defended the player with the words: “Please don’t judge yet, you don’t know everything.”
Fleks says, tearfully: “But in reality, we were the ones who didn’t know everything. We thought we knew everything, but that wasn’t the case.”
„We only play WoW, we don’t even go outside”
This is the life of a raider at that level: As Narcolies says, he has been raiding for 15 years and has given up his “real life” to play WoW:
The whole guild feels manipulated. We just play World of Warcraft, I don’t even go outside. I wake up, I shower, I eat something, and then I log in and … farm fucking mounts and transmogs.
Narcolies
Narcolies seems overwhelmed by the situation; he could hardly imagine what was now being accused of the guild member. Such things happen only in movies or series, but not in his WoW guild.
As Narcolies says a few days later in a stream, there is no longer a Method: The Method that you know is gone.
The Method scandal is moving the community.
What many are currently feeling about the collapse of the guild Method is that the guild is breaking apart, even though a police investigation against the player ended without results. The allegations have been raised on social media and not in a court of law.
Nevertheless, the guild leader takes responsibility for having “buried his head in the sand.” He now believes that they should have conducted their own investigations:
Epic Games has announced that the development of the original Fortnite’s “Save the World” is essentially complete and updates will now come less frequently. Players feel: That’s it, we have been buried by Epic like Paragon. Twitch streamers are announcing their departure, some are even crying.
This is the game: Fortnite: Save the World was released on July 25, 2017, for PC, PS4, and Xbox One as a paid title. It was supposed to be the flagship game of Unreal Engine 4 but remained lost for a long time. When it finally released, it did spark a hype briefly during the summer of 2017, which quickly faded.
It is a survival co-op game for 4 players where you can collect loot and build forts (a “Fort”) during the day to ultimately fend off a horde of monsters at night (Nite) that want to tear down your fort. This gameplay principle is where the name Fortnite comes from.
Hundreds of zombies and a fort: This is Save the World.
While from September 2017 onward Fortnite: “Battle Royale” became a worldwide hit as a free-to-play game, “Save the World” has been living in obscurity for years.
This was partly because players did not want to buy the game, as they were waiting for it to be offered for free:
but Epic decided at the end of 2018 that the game was not yet ready to become free-to-play and to launch. It needed to provide a great gaming experience for everyone first
now we know that this will never happen – Save the World will not become free anymore
You build forts and kill monsters.
“Story development completed”
This is what Epic says: In a blog post dated June 30, 2020, Epic Games announced some updates about Fortnite “Save the World.” After all, the game has been out for 3 years:
the game leaves early access and is officially released
“What’s in the game” – “We have killed your damn game:”
Players believe: This is the end
This is how it is read: Players of “Save the World” interpret these statements completely differently than they are stated. Because in their view, this is now a sign from Epic that they are finally giving up on “Save the World” and putting it into maintenance mode, meaning only doing the bare minimum.
The players of Save the World have long felt that their game has had developers and resources taken away in favor of “Fortnite: Battle Royale.” They believe they are now in the same situation as the fans of “Paragon” – the MOBA was discontinued by Epic Games in 2018 to free up more resources for Fortnite: Battle Royale.
Players are particularly upset that Epic says “the campaign is finished”; while the final zone “Twine Peaks” is still not equipped with its own biome in the game.

Players believe they are now in the same situation as Paragon.
Twitch streamers announce their farewell in tears
This is how players react: At the moment, many bitter memes and images are being posted. Negative news is piling up on reddit.
Some “great content creators” have announced that they have shown “Save the World” for the last time. There were many tears shed. The Twitch streamer “DemonJoeFrance” even cried during his last stream.
In general, people feel deceived and let down by Epic Games. Players are digging up old promises from 2017 and 2018 stating that “Save the World” should be doing well. However, that promise was not kept.
They accuse Epic of having blatantly lied and the reasons are clear: It’s only about the money. Constantly, memes are shared depicting how Epic Games is “executing” the game.

Save the World was revised and became fairer, but remained overshadowed by Fortnite: Battle Royale. It has actually been hardly relevant in recent years and has become less and less important, even though there were some hardcore fans who really liked the game.
That was probably also a problem Epic could never solve: “Save the World” gave out many V-Bucks, which players then used to obtain free skins in Battle Royale.

If “Save the World” had gone free as promised in 2018, it would have likely significantly reduced the revenues from Battle Royale.
Therefore, Epic Games kept reassuring players that the original Fortnite would eventually become “free-to-play” but could never keep that promise. Especially since Fortnite: Battle Royale was likely consuming more resources and labor hours.
The players are angry.
We have frequently reported on MeinMMO over the past years about how poorly players of “Save the World” feel and that they feel like the unloved stepchildren of Epic Games. This was particularly evident at an event in October 2019:
In celebration of the conclusion of the official “Call of Duty” league, Modern Warfare and Warzone are bringing a hefty weapon bundle featuring over 70 cosmetics. For those who want to feel like a champion on the battlefield.
What is this bundle? Cosmetic items have been a standard in Call of Duty for years. Following the major criticism of the loot box system, such as in Black Ops 4, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare introduced a “Battle Pass” system and purchasable cosmetic bundles.
These bundles typically include blueprints for weapons, charms, and other cosmetics with which you can customize your soldiers.
Now, a bundle has appeared in the “CoD Tracker” database that supposedly contains 69 items, including replicas of the weapons with setups that are frequently used in the CDL. With this, you can slide around the corners of the CoD maps or rack up headshots in Warzone with the elegance of a champion.
3 CDL Weapons and Loads of Stickers in the Champs Bundle
What’s included? The bundle is not yet online. It has happened before that bundles appear in the “Cosmetic Database” before their release. The contents could still change. Currently, the description indicates a total of 70 items. Accordingly, you can “play like a pro” with:
Blueprints for M4A1, HDR, and M19
55 signatures from CDL pros with team emblems as weapon stickers
3 business cards
3 emblems
2 charms
3 sprays
Even without the stickers, this bundle would still be relatively large with 15 items, but with the numerous stickers, the package becomes a mega-bundle with 69 cosmetics. A Reddit post shows weapons and charms:

When can I buy it and how much does it cost? The CDL league matches will continue until the end of July, and then there will be the “Championship Weekend”. The date for the event hasn’t been set yet, but the bundle will likely not be available until August. If you want to try out some champion setups in the meantime, you can see “Attach”‘s loadout here.
The price is also unclear at the moment. Normally, you can see the prices of selected bundles even before they are released. It’s possible that changes may occur in the bundle, and the current version is just a placeholder.
How is it currently going in the CDL? The league hosts 13 events throughout the season in which 11 teams from 11 different cities in the USA and Europe can secure a good position for the final matches. Currently, the team “Atlanta FaZe” is performing the best, having recorded the most match wins.
However, things may look very different for the championship. If it goes as it did last year, teams from the amateur level will also join the pro teams and shake things up. If an amateur team wins, unfortunately, there won’t be a champion bundle available here.

Some time ago, the toughest guy from Destiny 2, Lord Shaxx, sang about cheese and the moon. This was celebrated by many Guardians and brought some laughs. However, it seems that the whole thing was not really a joke and could potentially end quite badly.
What is the deal with the singing? In the context of the original quest for the exotic pistol “The Devil’s Ruin”, players had to visit the Crucible map “Dämmerbruch” among other tasks. While looking for broken Crucible practice robots, players could listen to the voices of Osiris, Saint-14, and Lord Shaxx.
And at the end, there was a real highlight. The cult character Shaxx sings – normally he’s a tough guy known for his witty remarks in the Crucible. Although Shaxx was more or less forced, he sings. About the moon made of cheese – all set to the rather dark theme of the Shadowkeep expansion.
This was celebrated at the time as a highlight of the quest. However, the funny singing interlude could have consequences – and indeed serious ones.
New dialogue casts fun singing interlude in a serious light
This is the dialogue in question: In the new dungeon Prophecy from the current Season 11, Twitter user Nemplays stumbled upon an interesting dialogue between Eris Morn, from whom Shaxx is supposed to know the song, and the Drifter – both important characters who will likely play a significant role in the upcoming Fall expansion Beyond Light.
Right there, Shaxx’s singing is suddenly cast in a completely different light.

What new information do we have? The Drifter addresses Eris, asking if she sang the song to Shaxx on the moon. After all, she is supposed to have that from her.
But apparently, she has not. And when she hums the melody for comparison, and the Drifter confirms that is exactly what he meant, she explains that it is a song of the Witch Savathûn.
What does this mean?Has Shaxx been flipped and is now a spy? Savathûn is a Witch Queen and the sister of Oryx, who will receive her own expansion as the main villain next year. She appears to have been pulling many strings behind the scenes, but is now slowly emerging and is being set up as the new main enemy of the Guardians.
Shaxx has heard a song that he should not know. Because Eris did not sing it to him. And it looks like the Witch has her fingers in this pie.
Because Shaxx behaves strangely. Above his position in the Tower, he has had a skull hanging for a long time (probably from a young Ahamkara), which he is supposed to remove at the request of Eris and the Drifter – and immediately. But he vehemently refuses – and without any apparent reason.
On the top right, you can see the skull (Source: Houndish)
The skull could be the key point. After Savathûn has now announced herself, dark relics are awakening all over the solar system, apparently including this skull. This is what Eris seems to fear.
And this skull seems to have an impact on Shaxx and his behavior. How else would he know the song? Some therefore believe that Savathûn might have influenced Shaxx in this way and, through him or the skull, gain insights into the top command center of the Guardians.
Whether Shaxx has now possibly become a spy of the Witch Queen against his will and passively remains to be seen. However, the exciting storyline development of Season 11 continues, and numerous little snippets make us eager for more.
What do you think? Has the Witch possibly flipped Lord Shaxx? Is one of our closest allies since Destiny 1 potentially a spy of the enemy now? By the way, Savathûn is already observing the Guardians in other ways: Mysterious spheres leave Guardians puzzled – What is going on?

In the upcoming WoW expansion Shadowlands potions work differently. They have a long cooldown – and will prevent “pre-potting”.
With World of Warcraft Shadowlands Blizzard is making many changes to the game mechanics. One of them affects all potion friends, as they have to deal with new rules. Many potions now have fixed cooldowns. Thus, the time of “pre-potting” is clearly over?
What exactly will change? In the future, most potions will have a cooldown of 5 minutes, which starts ticking immediately after use. This is completely independent of whether the character is in combat or not – the cooldown runs.
Whether alchemists benefit from this change or suffer from it – who knows?
Which potions are affected? The change affects all potions that have a strengthening or beneficial effect. These are thus potions that increase intelligence for 20 seconds or grant the character more movement speed or invisibility. These potions all share a new cooldown of 5 minutes, which also runs in combat.
Potions for restoring health points (healing potions) do not fall under this rule. They still have a cooldown of 60 seconds, which only starts running when the current fight is over.
Pre-potting made virtually impossible
What is “pre-potting”? Pre-potting was mainly used in raiding or harder “Mythic+” content. This describes a mechanic where players use a strengthening potion immediately before the start of the fight. In that case, the cooldown of the potion begins to run, but one could take the positive effect of the potion into the first seconds of the fight. Thus, a second potion could still be used later (for example, during the “Battle Frenzy” phase).
Players react rather negatively: The overwhelming feedback to this change seems to be rather negative so far. Many players have little understanding for this adjustment and do not want Blizzard to take away a decision from them – such as whether they can pre-pot or not.
This new rule particularly affects players who have regularly used their potions in trash groups, which often do not last very long. It was previously possible to use a potion in almost every group. This will no longer be possible in Shadowlands – at least with these adjustments.
Please keep in mind that this change is still information from the alpha. It is quite possible that Blizzard will backtrack after player feedback and try something different – perhaps the topic will be addressed in the upcoming livestream.
What do you think about the change to potions? A good change and sensible to save some gold? Or is this a really bad adjustment?

A new battle royale game will be released soon on Steam. Out of Reach: Treasure Royale mixes the pirate gameplay of Sea of Thieves with the battle royale action of Warzone, adding a good dose of exploration and survival on top.
What is Out of Reach: Treasure Royale? This is a spin-off of the game Out of Reach. It is a pirate survival game where you must survive as a stranded pirate on a wild island.
In the spin-off Treasure Royale, it is also about survival, but unlike the original, you will be fighting in an unusual battle royale. A typical round looks like this:
At the start of the game, assemble a crew of up to three players
Choose a ship
Start with a saber and 10 cannonballs and explore the game world
On islands in the sea, you will find better weapons and rum!
Sail continuously, as the play area shrinks
When you encounter other pirates, you shoot their ships to pieces or board them
The pirate who remains at the end wins!
In naval battles, you blast or board other ships.
Cemetery instead of Gulag – More Features of Out of Reach: Treasure Royale
What else is in Treasure Royale? A typical round of Treasure Royale mixes the crazy gameplay of Sea of Thieves with hard-hitting battle royale action like in Call of Duty: Warzone.
Most of the time, you sail around on a ship in the ocean and search lonely islands. According to the developers, the game world should cover over 20 km². There are 25 to 99 pirates roaming around.
When you encounter other pirates, it either leads to a duel or an intense naval battle. The trailer on Steam shows quite impressively what that looks like.

Here you can see what it’s all about in Treasure Royale.
If you know Warzone, one of the game mechanics of Treasure Royale may seem familiar to you. Because while you can fight for a respawn in the Gulag after dying in CoD, in Treasure Royale you can fight as a ghost pirate on a cemetery against other undead and thus return to the game. Alternatively, your remaining crew members can respawn you with unholy rituals.
On the cemetery, you fight as an undead for a respawn.
Also cool: If your ship sinks, you can sacrifice part of your life and unleash the Kraken. It will then dutifully retrieve a new ship from the depths of the ocean and you can continue sailing.
When will Treasure Royale be released? If you think this crazy genre mix might appeal to you, you will have to wait a bit. According to the Steam page, Treasure Royale is not expected to come until the 3rd quarter of 2020. However, the devs still need €13,053, which they are currently raising through a Kickstarter campaign.
Here are more pirate games: If you are looking for more games where you play pirates, privateers or seafarers and sail with ships on stormy oceans, you should check out our list of the 5 coolest MMOs with ships and pirates. You may find a sailing MMO there that you haven’t had on your map yet.

In Fortnite: Battle Royale there is a legendary mushroom that is so rare it is difficult to find. A German player found the mushroom and we at MeinMMO interviewed him about his special find.
What kind of mushroom is it? With the Update 13.20, there is a new mushroom on the Fortnite map.
This mushroom is legendary, and its appearance shows it, as it is completely golden. Anyone who finds and consumes this magical mushroom is said to be rewarded with 100 shield in one go.
Data miner HYPEX found some further information about the golden mushroom in the Fortnite data:

According to the data miner, the mushroom is not only extremely rare but also cannot be found in fruit boxes. You should only find it on the ground if you are lucky at all.
In Fortnite, there are already mushrooms and Slurp Mushrooms as instant items. Slurp Mushrooms recharge 5 shield per piece when you “eat” them. However, the legendary variant gives 100 shield and is therefore a welcome find.
Who found the mushroom? As likely one of the first players, the German YouTuber Bramdee found the legendary mushroom right on the day of the release of Update 13.20. He shared his find on his YouTube channel with the Fortnite community.

Here you can see the video of YouTuber Bramdee finding the golden mushroom
Here’s how the find went: MeinMMO asked the German YouTuber via email how his lucky find happened.
The player stumbled upon the mushroom during an arena round but couldn’t use it because he already had full shield. Therefore, he decided to take the mushroom with him in his inventory.
However, when the legendary mushroom landed in his inventory, it turned into a normal Slurp Mushroom, which is commonly found on the map. It is unclear whether this is a bug or if you must consume the golden mushroom immediately to benefit from it.
Was there a reward for the find? Although the player was very lucky to find the mushroom, he did not receive any reward for it. He neither unlocked an achievement nor gained XP for it.
The mythical goldfish trophy is also very hard to find
This is quite strange because with the mythical goldfish, which is also very rare and hard to find, you could unlock 3 different achievements. It is also unclear whether this is related to a bug. Since the golden mushroom is so rare, there is currently not much information available about it. We will probably have to wait until a player finds it who can consume it immediately.

The new Rytec AMR has some problems in Call of Duty: Warzone. Bugs stop you from leveling and ruin headshots. What is going on?
What is wrong with the sniper? With the big 39-GB update that was released on June 30 for Modern Warfare and Warzone, the new sniper rifle “Rytec AMR” was introduced.
This is a .50 caliber sniper that is presented in the game as one of the “deadliest semi-automatic weapons.” However, it has now been shown that the weapon is not as deadly due to a bug as one might think. Another bug prevents you from leveling if you use special attachments.
We show you the bugs of the Rytec AMR and what the developers are saying about it.
Leveling only works without this attachment
What is the problem? Unlocking the sniper is not easy, as you need to gather 3 quickscope kills with snipers or DMRs in 15 different matches. You can find our guide to unlocking the Rytec AMR in Warzone here.
Once you own the weapon, leveling it is a bit more complicated than planned.
If you equip explosive ammunition, you no longer gain weapon XP to level up.
Players noticed this when they played the sniper with explosive ammo but did not unlock any new attachments. Twitter user @Aegishand wrote that he could no longer level up with the AMR, even though he already used 6 XP tokens for it. In his tweet, he reached out to Joe Cecot, the co-design director for multiplayer at Infinity Ward.
Cecot confirmed on July 1 that there were issues related to explosive ammunition and XP, and a solution is already in the works.

Another bug: Players noticed in their Warzone matches that the AMR Rytec cannot knock out enemies with a headshot. Without armor on opponents, this is not a problem, but as soon as they wear armor, only that is targeted. Even with headshots.
Twitter user @TheKlap86 asked Joe Cecot if this was a bug. “Out of curiosity, should the Rytec sniper destroy armor with headshots only? I’m just asking to make sure that this isn’t a bug on my end. No headshot, no matter the distance, resulted in an opponent [in the downed state]. Only armor was damaged.”
Cecot also confirmed here that it is a bug and that a solution is already being worked on.
However, aside from the bugs, the AMR Rytec is already quite powerful. It has a relatively high ADS speed and becomes very dangerous in the right hands.
How you can effectively use the sniper rifle, we show you with this explosive build for the Rytec AMR in CoD Warzone. This way, you can already collect one-shots with headshots, but unfortunately do not gain weapon XP for it.

An event in Destiny 2 brings Twitch streamer Sean “Gladd” Gallagher a welcome influx of money. He is the main beneficiary of an action from Bungie: Anyone who links their Destiny account with their Twitch account and donates subscriptions receives an emblem and a shader in the game. Apparently, tens of thousands of players want these cosmetics.
This is the promo: A new promotion for Destiny 2 on Twitch has been running since July 1:
Players must link their Destiny account on Steam, PlayStation, or Xbox One with the Twitch account – this is done via Bungie.net and the settings there
Then they must find a Twitch streamer who has activated a special extension for Destiny 2 (Here is a list via Twitch)
This is the shader in question.
They then need to donate 2 “Tier 1” subscriptions to the streamer, which costs about €10. It is important that they do this under their name and not anonymously
After that, they can pick up the shader “Watcher’s Shade” and the emblem “Stream of Light” in the game from “Amanda Holiday” in the Tower’s hangar.

Streamer has been live for 30 hours – can’t believe it
These are the effects: The main beneficiary of the action is Destiny 2 streamer Sean “Gladd” Gallagher. He started streaming on Twitch normally and was then overwhelmed by the “Sub-Train” triggered by the promo action.
A Sub-Train is an unofficial thing: It is active as long as a streamer continuously receives new donations. If he doesn’t receive a donation for 5 minutes, the “Sub-Train” stops.
By now, Gladd has been live for over 30 hours and has received 27,868 subscriptions. He has earned over €60,000 in the nearly 30 hours. And that’s a minimum number: Donations, higher-tier subs, and more money come in – depending on the distribution rate Gladd negotiated with Amazon.
The stream had an average of 4,585 viewers.
During the stream, there were already some difficulties and issues. For instance, the stream crashed at 13,000 subs in a row, but he was able to continue later.

“Hey, why not let someone else dip into the money pot”
This is a controversy: Later, he took a break but didn’t want to stop his stream. So he continued to send out “old material”, meaning he was no longer visible live. This is actually against the very idea of a “livestreaming platform. “
For this, he was criticized by fans. They thought Gladd could also turn off the stream and leave the subscriptions to other Destiny streamers if he was too tired to play himself. Some saw this as selfish behavior.
Gladd apologized for this when he returned: He acted in the heat of the moment and hype. Next time he will also try to think about others and consider this more. Everyone can act selfishly at times, even if it is not the true intention.
It will certainly be controversially discussed that “the devil shits on the biggest pile here” and that especially the one who is already at the front on Twitch benefits the most and has no money problems.
These German-speaking Destiny 2 streamers would surely also appreciate subscriptions.
In parts of the community, there is a desire to counteract this and ensure that smaller streamers also benefit from the Twitch subscriptions. One user on reddit says: He hates that the 5 to 6 biggest streamers are now the only ones who really benefit from the event (via reddit).
Gladd is regarded as the exemplary PvE player for Destiny 2. In April 2020, Bungie had already tried to make a gift to such streamers and brought especially difficult content into the game. However, that didn’t work back then, as even Gladd was not interested in playing it:
