In the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online, you have 10 races to choose from. We wanted to know which one you prefer the most. You voted, and we will reveal the ranking.
Each of the 10 races in ESO has its unique appearance. Additionally, all have their pros and cons. They have race-specific traits and abilities. We wanted to hear from you in a survey about which of the ESO races is your favorite.
A total of 1566 MeinMMO readers participated in the survey, with each of you able to cast only one vote. We will reveal how you voted for the individual races on the following pages.
The ranking starts with the least popular race and ends with your favorite.
10. The Orsimer (Orcs)
The Orsimer are in last place with 3.77% of your votes.
Who are the Orsimer? The Orsimer live by a code of honor. Survival of the fittest is the law, and the strongest rule. However, they are indeed much more civilized than they may first appear. Due to their harsh surroundings in the mountains, they are well adapted to life as warriors. They are also famous for their blacksmithing.
What defines the Orsimer? Orcs are well suited as stamina DPS and excellent as craftsmen. With their bonus to sprinting and reduced costs, they are also a good choice for PvP. Orcs specialize in heavy armor usage.
However, the Orcs’ greatest strength is likely their craftsmanship. Crafting in ESO is very versatile, and training a master craftsman can take up to 1.5 years. As an Orc, you receive a bonus from “Craftsman,” allowing you to level crafting faster and research more quickly.
Despite all the advantages, Orcs are rather unpopular. This is partly due to the appearance of these charming fellows. There are even competitions in forums to see who can create a pretty orc girl (via elderscrollsonline.com).
What racial skills do they have?
Craftsman: Increases experience gain in heavy armor usage, increases your inspiration gain while crafting
Muscular: Increases your maximum stamina
Unfaltering Fury: Increases your maximum health. When you use a weapon ability, you heal yourself, which can proc every 4 seconds.
Swift Warrior: Increases your weapon power, reduces your costs, and increases your speed while sprinting

The schools are closed, and playgrounds should not be visited. Even meeting with friends is currently not possible during the Corona crisis. That’s where fun video games for PC, PS4, Xbox One, or the Nintendo Switch come in handy. We introduce you to the 10 best games that are currently a lot of fun for kids and are safe.
Entertainment is important during the Corona crisis; otherwise, you might feel claustrophobic at home. Especially children can quickly lose patience and need an occupation.
In selecting these games, we ensured that they not only provide fun together but also explain to parents what to watch out for and for which age groups the games are suitable.
What is Lego: Marvel Superheroes 2? We present this game as a representative for the Lego series and because it is simply one of the best-rated in the series. You take on the role of well-known Marvel superheroes and villains like Spider-Man, Thor, Hulk, Black Panther, Captain Marvel, Doctor Strange, Green Goblin, and more. Team up to travel through diverse levels, solve puzzles, fight enemies, and collect Lego pieces. Building also plays a role.
How complicated is the game? The Lego games are almost self-explanatory. Neither are the controls particularly complex, nor does the gameplay offer mechanics that require significant learning. Basically, you know immediately what to do and can start playing.
Pros
Mix of Lego and action
Diverse missions
Exciting co-op fun
Cons
Not all games are suitable for younger children
Games often offer similar content
For which age group is Lego: Marvel Superheroes 2 suitable? The games are linked to the respective films like Star Wars, Avengers, Indiana Jones, Batman, or Harry Potter and are therefore aimed at somewhat older children who can already relate to these stories. Battles play a significant role. Parents should definitely pay attention to the USK age classification. For Lego: Marvel Superheroes 2, the rating is “from 12 years old.” Other games in the series are suitable from 6 years old.
How is social interaction in the game? The community consists mainly of somewhat older children. They interact appropriately with each other. Parents don’t have to fear an overly toxic community.
This is an AI-powered translation. Some inaccuracies might exist.
Forums like Reddit are full of toxic comments. A study has now presented the worst subreddits, and they are all online games.
What was examined? On the site Clutch has set out to determine the most toxic players based on their subreddits.
For this, they used the Toxic Comment Classifier. This is an artificial intelligence that filters out and highlights insults. It allowed to see in which subreddits the most insults occurred. In total, 1.3 million Reddit comments were checked.
What comes out? Anyone who is sure that League of Legends is in first place is mistaken. The MOBA ranks 9th, with many MMOs and online games ahead of it.
Shooters are at the top
These are the rankings: Shooters occupy the top spots. The Call of Duty series is even represented twice. We present the ranking as a result. Below we have written out the game names again:
What stands out? The communities in which the most insults are thrown are all multiplayer games. The communities where playing together is involved seem to be particularly toxic.
League of Legends, which many consider to be the most toxic game, only ranks 9th here. The MOBA is popular among many toxic streamers, and anyone who has been there has surely experienced some harsh treatment.
In 10th place is Binding of Isaac, the first single-player title. So, it’s not just online games that are toxic, but also communities around single-player games.
How seriously can this evaluation be taken? The artificial intelligence only filters insults and does not evaluate them. In some communities, it’s common to be toxic to each other, which may not necessarily be considered an insult.
So, it can certainly be the case that in Modern Warfare or Payday, players insult each other but mean it in a more playful way. In League of Legends, however, the insults tend to be more malicious and are felt as such.
The largest subreddits of MMORPGs are not represented on this list, by the way. In this genre, players seem to be somewhat friendlier towards each other, at least according to the artificial intelligence.

With the free computer game Foldit, you should help fight the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2). Anyone can participate.
What is it about? The University of Washington has developed a free game that allows you to help in the creation of a medication against coronaviruses.
How to participate – Foldit Download
How can I get started? The game is called Foldit and can be downloaded from the official FreeThink website.
The Institute for Protein Design (IPD) at the University of Washington developed the game, where you solve puzzles. In doing so, you create protein structures that can interact with other proteins in a specific way.
How does it work? You download Foldit from the website (link to download on fold.it) and then register with a username and password. The file is only 166 MB in size.
When you start the game, you will first be guided through a few tutorials that explain how to solve the puzzles. In the advanced puzzle, you design a brand new protein from scratch.
One of the first tutorial levels in Foldit – it’s not as complicated as it looks
The most promising designs are then tested at the IPD. If a correct combination is found, it will still take some time for it to undergo further testing.

What is behind it? The idea behind the game is to find a correct protein combination that can effectively protect cells from the attacking coronaviruses. Scientists can then use this to develop medicine against the virus to slow down or stop the spread.
However, this is a long way because “a modest protein with 100 amino acids has 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,0000 possible combinations,” explains the website.
No wonder that as many of you as possible should play Foldit to quickly find the right combination.
Finally, a skin is available in the Item Shop of Fortnite that caused some speculation. Players had to wait a long time for it, but now it’s here and brings challenges with it.
What kind of skin is this? This outfit is the Aurum skin, which came to the Item Shop today on March 25, 2020, at 2:00 PM. It is a golden skeleton wearing a royal crown.
The skin itself costs 2,000 V-Bucks. Additionally, there’s a golden skeleton dragon as a glider available for purchase for 1,500 V-Bucks.
Additionally, the skin has another style variant where the golden color doesn’t shimmer as much.
What challenges are available? If you purchased the Aurum skin, you’ll automatically unlock 4 tasks that you can complete.
By completing these missions, you also unlock a weapon wrap, a pickaxe, and 100,000 XP each.
These are the tasks you must complete:
Assist teammates with eliminations (0/10)
Play a round with a friend (0/10)
Deal damage to opponents (0/1,000)
Collect medals (0/40)
These are the two rewards you unlock:
There was a lot of speculation about this skin
What makes this skin so mysterious? The outfit has been in the Fortnite data for a while and was first leaked by dataminers on January 15, 2020.
Since the skin didn’t appear in the shop for a long time, it caused some speculation and theories.
This was the second theory: When this theory didn’t come true, players thought Aurum would be the Battle Pass skin from Season 2 that you could unlock at level 100.
As the theme of gold was strongly represented in the teasers for the new Season 2, this skin fit perfectly into the scene.

When Season 2 started, it quickly became clear that Aurum was not part of the Battle Pass skins from Season 2. The Level 100 skin was not the golden skeleton, but Midas.
The community had another assumption: The last theory flared up a few days before its arrival in the Item Shop. Dataminers had found its challenges and saw that you could unlock a few items with it.
Players quickly realized: This skin must be the secret skin of this season! Thematically, it perfectly fit into the story.

The Steam game “Bombergrounds: Battle Royale” is free and gives fans of the genre and Bomberman exactly what they love: Fast, entertaining fun. And lots of bombs.
Currently, there are a plethora of “Battle Royale” games. However, some games stand out with a unique twist or an interesting simplification. Such a game is Bombergrounds: Battle Royale. The game has everything a good Battle Royale requires, but simplifies many aspects to the best parts of this genre: Fast, entertaining fun.
What is Bombergrounds: Battle Royale? Anyone who has played one of the old “Bomberman” titles knows roughly which direction Bombergrounds is heading. The battlefield consists of a large area divided into blocks. Some blocks are blocked by rocks or water, creating impassable terrain.
The goal is to eliminate all other players on the battlefield using bombs.
Gradually, the playing field gets smaller as the outer rows of blocks disappear. In the end, exciting battles are inevitable, as there is little space left to navigate on a 10×10 area.
How do the bombs work? In Bombergrounds, the bombs function similarly to those in the Bomberman games. They are ignited and then explode in a fixed pattern. Typically, they trigger a cross-shaped explosion that damages 3 blocks in all 4 directions. If a player is hit by an explosion, they are immediately eliminated.

However, there are some modifications in the Steam game that make it exciting and fast-paced:
The players can throw their bombs, pushing them a few blocks away.
Bombs stop when they hit walls.
If a bomb is caught in the explosion of another bomb, it also explodes immediately.
Your own bombs can damage their creator if they are hit by the explosion.
You have unlimited bombs, but only a small stock that regenerates over time.
What makes Bombergrounds: Battle Royale so special? On the one hand, it is easy to give the game a chance – as it is free to play like many “Battle Royale” games. On the other hand, Bombergrounds ensures that the game is also suitable for players who typically do not engage with Battle Royale, thanks to its more minimalist style. After all, you do not shoot with weapons here, which eliminates the need for aiming. Moreover, the frantic search for good loot, as seen in Fortnite, is also absent.
Finally, the matches are also very fast due to the significantly smaller battlefield. In case of a defeat, you don’t have to wait long, which noticeably reduces frustration.
The MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) has an action-packed combat system. A fundamental element of this are the light and heavy attacks. The game may now change this fundamentally, and we will reveal what is behind it.
What is the current situation with the attacks in ESO? In The Elder Scrolls Online, the current MMORPG favorite on Twitch, you have the choice between different attacks. You can execute skills and normal attacks with your equipped weapons. These differ into light and heavy attacks.
Light attacks are executed quickly, while heavy attacks need to be charged. In between, there are medium strikes, which are rather rarely used. The heavy attacks deal more damage and regenerate resources.
This system, however, could soon change. Currently, tests are being conducted on the public test server that completely overhaul light and heavy attacks.
In ESO, with the right use of skills, it is quite possible to attack whole hordes of enemies at once.
The light attacks will then deal less damage from now on. In the patch notes, it is mentioned that it could be up to 78%.
However, they will be responsible for resource recovery.
After three of these weaker attacks in a row, the effect should be greatest.
The heavy attacks will no longer regenerate.
However, they will be granted up to 62% more damage depending on the weapon type.
Additionally, the “weaving” of heavy attacks should soon be more rewarding due to an additional buff than with light attacks.
What is “weaving” in ESO? In ESO, “weaving” refers to when a player cancels the animations of attacks. To maximize your damage, you should always alternate between light attacks and skills, generating more attacks per minute (APM). This also helps you if you want to solo through dungeons in ESO.
If the light attacks are nerfed and the heavy ones buffed, this could affect the rotation of many players. For some builds, light attacks account for between 15% and 25% of the damage.
On one hand, the damage would suffer, but on the other hand, resources would also be returned through light attacks. To what extent the changes will have an effect remains to be seen.
The ESO team wants to narrow the skill gap
The ESO team justifies the changes being tested by stating that they aim to narrow the skill gap. According to their statement, in ESO, the player who does the most damage is the one who outputs the most APM. This would limit the versatility of gameplay styles:
While we believe that having a skill gap is a good thing, we also fear that it is currently too large […]. We believe that the specification for a specific mechanic (weaving of light attacks) offers little room for individual playstyles, including options for rotations with less APM.
Now we have to wait and see if the change will be implemented at all. So far, it is only running on the test server. The adjustments we can definitely expect are those that will come with the new addon Greymoor. And that is soon about to be released:
In FIFA 20 the second TOTW Moments has just been presented. We show you which players are part of the current TOTW Moments, the replacement for the Team of the Week.
What are TOTW Moments? As a replacement for the Team of the Week, the new TOTW Moments has been appearing weekly since last week. Like the Team of the Week before it, this comes to FIFA 20 Ultimate Team every Wednesday and brings new special cards into the game.
The selection of the cards is based on TOTWs from past FIFA editions. It looks at which players have received Inform cards during the same period. EA makes the selection and composes a new TOTW Moments.
These cards are particularly strong: The strongest card of the week goes to Kevin De Bruyne with an overall rating of 95. However, the cards of Koulibaly (91), Pepe (87), Nainggolan (87), and Coman (86) are also strong.
These Bundesliga players are included: This week, Kingsley Coman (86) is the only Bundesliga player to receive a TOTW Moments card.
This is how strong De Bruyne’s new card is: This week, Kevin De Bruyne receives another special card in FIFA 20 Ultimate Team. This one is really strong with an overall rating of 95.
The biggest improvements compared to his last Inform cards can be found in the following areas:
Shooting: 91 -> 93
Dribbling: 90 -> 92
The new TOTW Moments card from Kevin De Bruyne is unlikely to be cheap. His last Inform card already costs about 700,000 coins.
Bronze or Silver Moments cards can be found in the corresponding Bronze and Silver packs.
On the Transfer Market: The new cards will also quickly be listed on the FUT transfer market like the TOTW cards. But be sure to compare prices before you buy. The prices for these cards often drop significantly over a few days.
Did you know that two of the strongest dribblers in FUT 20 play in the Bundesliga?
In Call of Duty: Warzone, diligent players have been engaged with the bunkers that can be found on the map since its release. We present possible theories for you
What are these bunkers? These locked doors have already caught attention since the release. In front of them, there are input fields, and it seems that these doors could somehow be opened.
These are the mysterious bunkers. Source: CoD Tracker
Do you have to solve a puzzle to access the bunkers?
This indicates a puzzle: There are always hints suggesting a puzzle surrounding these bunkers. The YouTuber Drift0r discusses this topic in his video and reports that one finds 3 input fields in front of such bunkers. Additionally, there are telephones and a computer.

Starting from minute 7:00, the Easter egg is discussed
Something similar is known from other Easter eggs. There, you need to interact with various items in the right order to unlock a reward. Such a concept could also be applied here with the electrical devices.
Would such a feature make sense? Call of Duty is known for smaller Easter eggs that they hide in their games. There have been some around DrDisrespect or the cult film “Back to the Future”. It is entirely possible that they have something in store for Warzone and the bunkers.
Are large loot caches the answer?
This feature could be it: The magazine GameRant sees large loot caches behind the bunker doors. Such features already exist in Apex Legends or Fortnite.
In Fortnite, for example, since the start of Season 2, you need to defeat NPCs and receive a keycard from them. With this card, you can then open large vaults where particularly high-value loot is hidden.
Vehicle bunkers like in Firestorm, the battle royale of Battlefield 5, could also be possible. Since the developers announced to experiment a lot with events and modes, heavy vehicles could eventually find their way into Warzone. Even if some players already have problems with the current vehicles.
Therefore, a way may soon be introduced to open these doors. For example, one might have to complete special missions or find a keycard to gain access.
Could there be more vehicles hidden in the bunkers?
Would such a feature make sense? Games like Apex Legends or Fortnite are direct competitors of Warzone. If such features are well-received there, it is quite possible that Infinity Ward will respond to it.
What does Infinity Ward say about this? So far, the developers have been silent about the bunkers. Instead, they recently canceled an update that many fans were looking forward to.
We will have to wait a bit longer until more information about the mysterious bunkers is revealed.

Yesterday, on March 24, the very first global event started in The Division 2. Check out how the polarity switch event works and what rewards you can snag.
What kind of event is this? The loot shooter The Division 2 has been focusing on seasons since the major expansion “Warlords of New York“, similar to Destiny. As part of the first season, several events were announced, including the “polarity switch”.
Find out here how the entire event works, how you can participate, and what rewards await you.
First Global Event of The Division 2 – Polarity Switch
How does it work? If you decide to participate, every enemy and division agent has a specific polarity – Orange (Positive) or Blue (Negative).
Be careful to shoot only at enemies that have your displayed polarity. You can see your own polarity on your arm or in the area of active buffs. The enemies’ polarity is displayed above their health bar.
On the arm, you can see the blue marking indicating that the enemy with the orange symbol above their head should not be shot at.
If you hit enemies that correspond to your polarity, you can build a strong damage boost with up to 5 stacks. If you have a strong damage build, the enemies will fall pretty quickly.
However, if you hit enemies with the wrong color, you will get shocked and become immobile and vulnerable for a few seconds, since you cannot take cover either.
Grenades and skills are not affected by the polarities. Here you can attack everything without paying attention to the enemies’ polarity.
How do I switch polarities? However, you do not have the same polarity all the time; it actually switches constantly with the following actions:
When reloading and switching weapons, your own polarity is reversed
If you hit an enemy with a melee attack, the enemy’s polarity switches
Here lies the challenge. Since your polarity changes constantly, you must always pay attention to what color you currently have. After reloading, you often need to switch weapons to attack the same enemy again without disadvantage. This costs time and can get you into trouble.
Select the event and activate it to participate.
The event is optional and missions run over several days
How do I participate? The event is optional and must be activated manually; otherwise, you won’t participate. In the inventory menu, you will see the seasonal activities on the right. Here you will find the planned and completed activities of the current season, including the global event “Polarity Switch”. Go to the event menu’s selection screen and confirm your participation. You can also deactivate the event at any time when you’re in a safe zone.
How do I get the rewards and what are they? Every day you can earn “Event Stars” with specific projects. These are tasks like “Eliminate 200 enemies with positive polarity” or “Play any main operation at “Hard” difficulty or higher”.
Once you complete one of the tasks, you will receive stars that count towards the reward path. There are a total of 10 rewards to earn, including “Named Containers” and “Exotic Containers” that drop a named or exotic item. For every 5 stars, you will receive one of the containers. As the final reward, there is a backpack charm, which you will need another 10 stars for.
The first reward is given for free. After that, you need stars from the event projects.
Each day, there are new projects, and you can still complete the ones from the previous day. Currently, four days of the event can be seen in the menu section. On the fourth day, you will have the most open projects and many missions can be completed at the same time.
How long is this event running? The polarity switch event runs until March 30. Whether another reward branch will come after the fourth day or if agents will get the remaining days to complete the tasks is yet to be seen.
Is it worth it? The missions add a bit of excitement and variety. With the stackable damage buff, enemies melt away at the highest level. However, it can also be frustrating if you get shocked by a stray shot and end up going down.
The rewards, unfortunately, are not that strong. A backpack charm as the top reward might not entice many players. Moreover, the containers can also contain inferior items. So there’s a chance that you get little useful from the containers, especially if your gear is already quite good. However, there could also be one of the named items that are currently considered best-in-slot for damage dealers or a decent exotic. The exotic container is probably the best reward here.
If you activate the event, you will immediately receive a patch. You might want to take that with you. If you don’t enjoy this special gameplay element, the rewards are not significant enough that you would miss out on something. Maybe you will prefer one of the next events better, there are rumors of zombies coming.
What do you think about the event and the rewards? Do the seasonal events keep you entertained?

You want to create a character in Destiny 2 but aren’t sure which class or race to choose? No problem: We help with the first big decision and show you what powerful abilities await you.
This is the first important decision: You have successfully installed Destiny 2 and spent what feels like half an eternity downloading updates from the last years, and right after starting the game, two consequential decisions await you: Which class and which race should your new Guardian represent?
When it comes to choosing a race, you can rest assured, as all options have precisely 0 impact on your gaming experience. The same goes for the choice of gender. So choose purely based on personal taste.
One of the races from the Destiny universe: the Exos
You have the following options:
The Humans – The last survivors of the nearly destroyed Earth
The Awoken – They were once humans eons ago before their journey turned them into mysterious beings in the vastness of space
The Exos – These are mechanical creatures equipped with human consciousness through long-forgotten technology
In the character editor, you can choose from further cosmetic options like hairstyles or war paint. You can decide in-game whether to remove your helmet in safe zones and proudly present your face to the world.
The class choice in Destiny 2 – Which one should you take?
Which class should you choose? More important than the choice of race is your class choice in Destiny 2. Because the classes significantly influence the entire gameplay.
Each class has unique abilities, grenades, or powerful ultimates (called Supers) and items that the other two do not have access to. Additionally, the 3 classes are divided into 3 subclasses (focuses), each with 3 specializations. But don’t worry, Destiny 2 is always very clear, and you can easily switch between subclasses and specializations at will.
Warlock, Hunter, and Titan
But at this point, a very important note: No class is superior to all others or has overwhelming advantages. All activities in the Destiny universe can be easily mastered with any class. Also, every weapon can be used by any class.
These 3 classes exist in Destiny 2:
Warlocks: Warlocks visually resemble traditional wizards with their cloaks and robes. Only instead of boring conventional magic, they use twice as cool space magic. They always have what is called a Rift at their disposal. With it, you can heal health or boost outgoing damage.
Hunters: Described as daring and nimble outlaws. Many players love their capes. Hunters have an ability for a dodging jump. This allows them to reload weapons and quickly change positions.
Titans: The Titan is described as disciplined and proud but also aggressive. He usually wears bulky armor and resembles tanks or paladins from typical role-playing games. Accordingly, every Titan can erect a shield wall (barricade) on the battlefield to provide cover.
We recommend following your gut feeling when choosing a class. Because contrary to popular belief, bulky Titans endure as much in combat as the seemingly fragile Hunters. Once you have delved deeper into Destiny 2, you can worry about stats; for the first steps, these hardly matter and are adjustable at any time.
How powerful the subclasses are in Destiny 2
Here we would like to briefly introduce some of the subclasses and their playstyles. Naming all specializations, let alone all abilities, would exceed the scope of the article. Additionally, exploration and experimentation are a big part of the excitement of Destiny 2. By the way, since the Forsaken expansion, 9 new focuses have found their way into the game.
The powerful subclasses of the Warlocks:
The Stormcaller: Have you always felt drawn to the dark side of the Force? Then the Stormcaller is just your thing. Bad lightning bolts shoot from your fingers like the evil emperor. Depending on your tuning, you can chain the deadly electric shocks or summon a lightning turret that won’t leave your side.
The Dawnblade: With this specialization, your Warlock summons a flaming sword and can fly for a while. You can soar over your enemies like an AC-130 and rain fire from the sky.
The Well of Radiance: Instead of attacking with your flaming sword, you slam it into the ground, igniting the area around you. You and your whole team are thus enhanced and can heal completely in no time. With additional support abilities, you become a healer who can deal heavy damage.
Heal or destroy, Warlocks have the choice
The powerful subclasses of the Hunters:
The Nightstalker: With the Nightstalker focus, your Hunter becomes invisible, confuses enemies with smoke bombs, and can spot targets with a kind of wallhack and lure them into traps. As a Super ability, you summon a ghostly bow or daggers made of dark energy.
The Golden Gun: You can make the Hunter a true sharpshooter, becoming more precise with each hit and throwing burning knives. On command, you summon a fiery Western revolver that knocks down just about everything with a single shot.
The Arcstrider: With this choice, Hunters emphasize their agility. You can either dodge nearly any attack or block them and send them back to the sender without detours. You are also dangerous, as the arc staff serves as your melee weapon.
Hunters emerge from the shadows and take out their prey
The powerful subclasses of the Titans:
The Sunbreaker: Do you want to swing a hammer made of pure solar energy? The Titan has two of them. You can either throw your explosive hammer like the god Thor or swing a man-sized hammer and flatten everything in your path.
The Sentinel: For Guardians with a penchant for Captain America, the Sentinel is interesting. At the push of a button, you equip a shield that blocks everything and can be thrown – ricochet hits from walls included.
The Fist of Havoc: If you want to emulate the strongest of all superheroes, you’ll be happy with the Superman Titan. You can fly through the air and slam down to the ground like a rocket. There’s not much left except devastation.
The model for Superman is the Titan
As mentioned at the beginning, in Destiny 2 you are not limited to a specific subclass. Even in the middle of a fight, switching is possible, inviting experimentation. You also cannot “mess up the build” or anything like that.
Have fun and try everything out. What is your favorite class and why? Let us know in the comments.
Many players are excited about the respawn mechanic “Gulag” in CoD: Warzone. However, one feature is annoying: the stun grenades.
What is the problem? The stun grenades in the Gulag are a thorn in the side for some players in CoD: Warzone. Some say that they require no skill and essentially lead directly to death. Without them, the Gulag would be much better. There are threads on Reddit and Twitter that describe the issues some players are facing.
What is the Gulag? When you die in Call of Duty: Warzone, you are not immediately dead, but first land in the Gulag. A sort of prison where fallen players face off against each other in a 1v1. Whoever wins the direct duel against another player gets to return to the map and rejoin the match. However, this is only possible until a certain point in a match is reached. The Gulag is Warzone’s best BR idea. Even though the grenades annoy some people.
Some are annoyed by the stun grenade, while others are satisfied
This is what the discussions revolve around: Players demand that the stun grenade in the Gulag be disabled. Because here, players receive a random loadout. When stun grenades are included in the loadout, players get frustrated quickly, as Dexerto reports.
Player Fit_And_Local writes on Reddit that the Gulag should be solely based on weapons, grenades would diminish the quality of the feature. Alternatively, the stun duration of the grenade should be reduced.
The outbreak of the coronavirus caused a shutdown of factories in Asia. Some experts suspected a delay in the new console generation. However, the Microsoft CEO now appears optimistic.
What does the CEO report? Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsoft since 2014, reports in an interview with CNBC that the company’s supply chains in Asia are starting to resume. These were severely restricted due to the outbreak of COVID-19.
Nadella does not see Microsoft’s future as threatened:
We have a great balance sheet, we are a very diverse company […]. I am confident that we will, to be honest, come out of the crisis quite strong.
However, the CEO has doubts about the demand for new products in the USA and Europe. This could be negatively affected by the financial problems that arise from the outbreak of the coronavirus.
Experts fear delay of new console generation
What is special about the news? Nadella’s news currently seems to suggest that the new console generation does not necessarily have to be postponed. However, some experts had predicted this.
However, there are no more specific details available here either.
Microsoft’s cloud content stands firm
What else did Nadella say? In the conversation with CNBC, there was also discussion about the Microsoft content provided via the cloud. Here too, the CEO appears optimistic:
If this had happened in an earlier generation of data centers and software architectures, I don’t think we could have dealt with this crisis as effectively as we currently are.
However, Nadella does not mention whether there could be limitations on usage due to network load.
A player in Call of Duty: Warzone had a bizarre encounter. He encountered a flying truck that spectacularly crushed him due to a glitch.
This is the situation: Reddit user YouTube_oRemyy shared this funny clip. He wanted to destroy a vehicle and shot at the driver’s cabin. He kept dodging the truck that wanted to run him over.
At some point, the truck got wedged between trees and then floated into the air as if by magic. With a bold “jump,” the truck then crushed his opponent, who couldn’t quite believe it.

Could this happen to me as well? If you take a closer look at the video, the trigger for the flying vehicle seems to be the trees it got stuck between. Additionally, the truck perfectly flies onto its opponent and crushes him. Many variables come into play here that seem quite rare.
Of course, it’s not impossible for something like this to happen to you, but the probability seems low. In the comments on reddit, there are none who have experienced something like this. In our tips for the Warzone, we recommend always carrying a rocket launcher. That way, you can immediately get rid of annoying vehicles.
How is the action received by spectators? On reddit, the jump from the truck is celebrated. There are only a few comments upset that such a thing is even possible.
The top comments consist of viewers assigning wrestling moves to the jump from the truck. They recognize the finishers of famous wrestlers in it. After all, it looks like the truck is climbing the tree and intentionally jumping on the opponent from there.
Other viewers sympathize with the crushed player: “It was very frustrating to see you refuse to shoot into the windows, but then… it happened.”
Chronicles of Elyria wanted to do many things differently. Your character should age and be able to die. You should take care of descendants. Now, however, death has caught up with the MMORPG itself.
On March 25, the CEO of Soulbound Studios, the company behind the MMORPG, announced that all employees were laid off and the development of Chronicles of Elyria was halted.
For years, the studio tried to convince publishers to invest money. Despite some very innovative ideas, they failed to find a partner:
Unfortunately, we were unable to find investors who understood that working in a capital-constrained environment does not allow for growth and slows down progress.
What we did find were several investors who said: “Why are you talking to us? If you believe that you can be supported through crowdfunding, then you don’t need us. And if you are not convinced, then we are not confident enough to invest.”
Jeromy W – CEO of Soulbound Studios
Now the developer has run out of crowdfunding money. They consciously decided against a new campaign for funding through players.

Kingdoms and Aging Processes Attracted Many Supporters
What was special about Chronicles of Elyria? The sandbox MMORPG was considered very ambitious and wanted to give you the opportunity to live a virtual life and create your own dynasty.
It relied on:
A huge world with many kingdoms.
Many freedoms in character development. You should be able to live a life as a trader, craftsman, adventurer, or ruler of a city.
An aging process, where your character would get older and die. The idea was to father a successor and continue the game with them.
Role-playing was considered one of the most important aspects of the MMORPG.
Housing was also planned.
The characters in the MMORPG were supposed to age. A feature that brought Chronicles of Elyria a lot of attention.
How did the development go? The MMORPG tried to raise $900,000 through Kickstarter in 2016. This was achieved in a few days. In total, more than $1.3 million was raised.
The first shown content of Chronicles of Elyria even looked quite good. But the development took a long time and reached a point where the basic systems were first presented in a very simplified graphics.
What happens now? In the CEO’s statement, there is a reflection on achieved milestones, as well as a vague outlook on the future.
Some developers wish to continue developing the existing alpha content of the MMORPG in their free time, creating at least a playable version, albeit with adjusted names and content.
Fortresses and kingdoms were intended to play an important role in Chronicles of Elyria.
The universe itself and the associated stories are also supposed to be continued somehow. After all, according to the CEO, there are many Discord servers and communities that already engage in role-playing related to Elyria.
His statement ends with a thank you to the supporters and the note that he has no idea whether Elyria will come back at all:
I don’t know if or when Elyria will reappear, but when it does, you will be the first to know. From myself, Souzou, Vye, Snipehunter, Serpentius, and the entire Soulbound team:
Thank you for your love and support. We’ll see you then.
In Destiny 2 you earn the only new ritual weapon of Season 10 through the Iron Banner. We tell you what the bow “Point of the Stack” can do and how to get it.
This weapon is about: The combat bow “Point of the Stack” is one of the precise representatives of its kind and deals Arc damage. With most bows, guardians have to make a choice. Do they want a fast-firing bow that sacrifices precision or the other way around?
With its excellent stats, Point of the Stack combines the best of both worlds. However, like all ritual weapons, the special feature of the weapon lies in its perks.
What makes the bow special: With most weapons, players choose between two perks, that is, useful properties. Ritual weapons break this rule and double your options.
You can find these perks on Point of the Stack:
Slot 1: No Distractions – Aiming reduces flinch
Slot 1: Archer’s Tempo – Precision hits reduce draw time
Slot 2: Vorpal Weapon – More damage against supers, bosses and vehicles
Slot 2: Eye of the Storm – The lower the health, the better precision and handling
Additionally, you automatically receive the combat bow as a complete masterpiece in precision.
This is what Point of the Stack can do in PvP and PvE
This is how the bow performs in PvE: Bows deal very high damage with an arrow and normally take out adds with body shots. However, the punch comes into play when fighting enemies that can take a bit more or have a shield.
Bows especially shine in high-level content or in the endgame. That is, in the areas of PvE where you can’t devastate the battlefield without care but need to show caution and restraint.
To build on the strengths of Point of the Stack, you should fully invest in the perk Vorpal Weapon. All opponents with yellow health bars, the so-called “Yellow Bars” suffer an additional 15% damage. This also applies to champions who challenge guardians in many activities and are hard to eliminate.
This is how the bow performs in PvP: In the Crucible, Point of the Stack sends opposing guardians to the virtual afterlife with only two hits.
A critical hit deals 155 damage
A body shot deals 101 damage
Just one hit is enough to force any enemy into cover or weaken them enough for your team to easily take care of the wounded.
As a perk combination, we recommend in PvP Archer’s Tempo and Vorpal Weapon. The high precision and decent aim assist (72) ensure that critical hits are the norm. With the help of the perks, you can quickly set up for a deadly second shot.
With Vorpal Weapon, you deal a whopping 50% bonus damage to the opposing super. Two critical hits or three body shots are enough to abruptly end the otherwise strong super.
Anyone who wants can feel like “Robin Hood in Space” in Destiny 2
Is the bow worth it? Many guardians have a hard time with bows. The rather restrained playstyle may only partially appeal to action-spoiled players. However, Point of the Stack is an excellent entry into the “Robin Hood” playstyle. And who knows, after initial skepticism, the fresh experience might convince you and bring you closer to a different side of Destiny 2.
This is how to get the ritual weapon: To guarantee getting the combat bow Point of the Stack, you must complete the quest “Cast in Iron.” The task is tied to the Iron Banner and is given by Lord Saladin in the Tower.
In Season 10, you have three chances to participate in the PvP event. Currently (March 25), the first Iron Banner of the Season of Worthy is taking place. Until the next reset, you have time to prove your skill to the Iron Lords and be rewarded with the only new ritual weapon of Season 10.
Completing the Iron Banner quest: The quest “Cast in Iron” has 5 steps and rewards you with the well-deserved reward: Point of the Stack. All steps can only be completed in the Iron Banner. However, progress is carried over in the following events.
Quest Step 1:
3 kills with your super
30 enemies defeated
10 zones captured
Quest Step 2:
Complete 6 matches
Capture 20 zones
25 kills with hand cannons
Quest Step 3:
100 enemies defeated
30 zones captured
20 kills with submachine guns
Quest Step 4:
15 kills with your super
40 zones captured
15 kills with fusion rifles
Quest Step 5:
10 kills with bow
Complete 15 matches
50 zones captured
Throughout the quest, you will also unlock the Iron Banner armor of Season 10. Keep in mind that the captured zones and completed matches count across the quest steps. So you don’t have to start from zero after each step.
The Armor 2.0 variant of the “Iron Memory” sets
Are you diving into the Iron Banner and earning the only ritual weapon of Season 10? Have you been able to try out Point of the Stack yet – what is your conclusion? Let us know in the comments.
An alleged leak about GTA 6 is now predicting the announcement for the release as well as the trailer reveal. Even providing a date. Today, on March 25, GTA 6 is allegedly set to be announced.
What is it about? The next installment in the GTA franchise is highly anticipated by fans. After a particularly successful GTA 5 Online, fans are now finally hoping for the announcement of Grand Theft Auto VI, almost 7 years after the release of GTA V.
A new leak claims that this announcement is imminent and reveals even more information.
Update from March 26: The leaked announcement for March 25 did not come true. Nevertheless, some fans believe that the screenshot must have some truth to it.
Where does the GTA 6 leak come from and what does it say? Release, trailer and more
What kind of leak is this? An anonymous user posted details about the alleged announcement plan for GTA 6 on the internet forum “4Chan”, stating that it will not be released for PS4 and Xbox One.
It states that
that Rockstar Games will announce Grand Theft Auto VI today, on March 25, across all their social media channels
that the first trailer for GTA 6 will be released later in the week following the announcement
that the game will have a setting in Vice City and will take place in the 1980s
that players can take on the role of police officers in multiplayer mode
What supports the leak? As Dexerto reports, this would be a similar release plan to that of GTA 5. Which therefore supports this leak. On October 25, 2011, Rockstar Games posted a tweet that simply contained “#GTAV” and referenced the website showing the GTA 5 logo. The trailer for GTA 5 was released on November 2, 2011.
Recently, a theory emerged that Rockstar wants to give a hint about GTA 6 with this new race.
What speaks against the leak: The 4Chan screenshot contains other leaks that the user mentions in the same breath. Including that Nintendo would announce the “Breath of the Wild” sequel during their “Online Direct” stream. The use of the word “announce” regarding Nintendo is problematic, as the sequel to BOTW was officially announced during E3 2019 (via GameStar). This makes it seem as if the leaker does not know what they are talking about, as their “leaked” announcement already took place last year.
So take this leak with a large grain of salt and do not consider the information confirmed. Some players are eagerly awaiting today and checking to see if the information proves true. Another leak already predicted the announcement for March 20, but that also turned out to be false.
The PvP league for Pokémon GO has been running for a few weeks now, but many trainers are complaining about numerous bugs. Some fans even say it’s worse than during the beta.
This is the PvP league: It was supposed to be the next big feature of Pokémon GO. You can play against other trainers worldwide and climb ranks.
Especially for fans of PvP tournaments, it seemed to be really exciting, but now bugs often rule the league. Often you lose a round because annoying errors occur.
Players are angry – PvP league is unplayable
These are opinions from trainers: There are tons of reports on Reddit that the PvP league is plagued by bugs and that it simply isn’t fun because of them.
Recently, player “wolfrain007” wrote on reddit: “Is anyone else frustrated that the first season of the PvP league feels more bugged than the preseason, which was advertised as a beta?”
There were some responses from trainers. Players report that they have lost numerous matches because bugs disrupted the match. Others even say that the battle mode is currently unplayable and crashes every time against the team leaders in PvE battles.

What bugs are being mentioned? The list of errors is long. Here are the most prominent cases:
The opponent can suddenly use more than 2 shields
The charge attack cannot be used immediately when clicked
Due to connection issues, you sometimes cannot do anything for seconds
Per set, you can sometimes perform more than 5 battles
What does Niantic say about the errors? The developers of Pokémon GO are well aware of the issues. Shortly before the PvP league officially started, a patch fixed numerous bugs.
In our interview with Matt Slemon, the Lead Product Manager at Niantic, we asked him this exact question. He said: “We know that the quality of the PvP league is good; otherwise, we wouldn’t have launched the first season.”
Slemon also adds that they are closely monitoring the errors and will continue to make adjustments in the future. Nevertheless, it seems that Niantic finds the league good enough that it continues to run diligently.
Starting today, you can further upgrade your legendary cloak in WoW. However, the game doesn’t reveal how to do this – but we do.
With today’s maintenance work, a new feature in World of Warcraft has become accessible. The legendary cloak Ashjra’kamas can be further upgraded. However, this does not happen through a quest, but is a bit hidden. We’ll tell you what you need to do for the upgrades and what they entail.
What are the requirements? To further upgrade your cloak, you must have already upgraded Ashjra’kamas to level 15. This has been possible through Disturbing Visions since last week. There are no other requirements. If you need tips for the Disturbing Visions, check out our comprehensive guide.
What do you need to do for the upgrades? To obtain a “Malicious Core” that further upgrades the cloak, you must complete one of two activities:
Complete a Disturbing Vision entirely, meaning finish all bonus areas and the final boss. Wearing Faceless Masks is not required, but can be done.
Defeat “N’Zoth the Corruptor” in the Ny’alotha raid on normal, heroic, or mythic difficulty. A victory on “LFR” difficulty is not sufficient. Just find a group of 10 bear druids, and it will be easy…
Then, you only need to use the core on your cloak to perform the upgrade. Per week, you can only obtain one “Malicious Core”, unless you have fallen behind. Then you can receive up to two cores per week, but must complete both activities to do so.
N’Zoth the Corruptor
What do the upgrades provide? Each upgrade after level 15 does not increase the item level or attributes, but only raises the corruption resistance of the cloak by 3 points. This is possible once each for the next 25 weeks.
Should you continue to upgrade the cloak? Yes. Even though a single upgrade with just 3 points may seem minor, it makes a significant difference in total after a few weeks. The maximum corruption resistance of the character increases from 60 to 135. This means that you can carry 2-3 additional items with high corruption without being overwhelmed by the negative effects.
Actually, a patch for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Battle Royale Warzone was supposed to be released this morning. However, the developers are postponing the eagerly awaited update indefinitely.
What is going on? For the first time since the release, the developers of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare are delaying an update just before its intended release.
What did IW tweet? “The update planned for tonight is delayed and will be released in the coming days. […] Stay tuned for more details on the release plan.”
CoD update of 24.03. postponed indefinitely
What happens next? The developers are not providing a new schedule. As soon as we know more, you will find out here on MeinMMO. However, the update is expected to come in the next few days and not just with the next regular update date – Tuesday evening or Wednesday morning.
Why was the patch postponed? The developers are not commenting on this either. The changed release date on Wednesday morning our time was somewhat unusual. Typically, CoD updates come on Tuesdays at 7 PM.
It is quite possible that it has something to do with the current circumstances surrounding the Corona pandemic. However, until Infinity Ward better informs us here, this remains pure speculation.
The update was supposed to bring a new map and a new operator bundle to the multiplayer.
Why are so many waiting for the update? Especially players of the regular multiplayer mode of Modern Warfare have requested changes. With last week’s playlist update, the popular 24/7 mode with small maps was removed from the game, and currently, we can only play the Season 2 map “Atlas Superstore” without a break.
While there are also fans of this map, many players are wishing for the 24/7 playlist with the mini-maps “Shipment”, “Rust”, and/or “Shoot House”. Especially for leveling their weapons, to unlock attachments for the best weapons in Warzone faster, for example.
Some have also been expecting a duo or squad mode for Battle Royale Warzone. While the developers mentioned that the solo mode will remain for now, that doesn’t necessarily rule out additional variants.
This is an AI-powered translation. Some inaccuracies might exist.
