The most annoying bug in Fallout 76 ruins a Twitch streamer’s raid run

Andreas Bertits Andreas Bertits Reading time 3 minutes

The first raid of Fallout 76 has started. A streamer wanted to broadcast the raid live on Twitch: But quickly a problem occurred. In the middle of the mission, a player could not exit their Power Armor. This is definitely the most annoying bug in the survival MMO.

What is the first raid of Fallout 76? You explore the mysterious Vault 94 in a group of four, where something very strange is happening. Together, you face the challenge, solve puzzles, fight monsters, and collect rewards.

Forever trapped in Power Armor!

What problems have already arisen? Bethesda has been quite cautious with the raid and reserves the right to take it offline again if there are problems. And of course, one has already emerged.

The Twitch streamer Kevduit wanted to dive into the raid with his team and of course stream it. But while the group was trying to fight their way through the bunker on the highest difficulty level, the player AvxAustral got stuck in her Power Armor.

As a result, she could no longer move and could not exit the armor. Attacks were also impossible. Therefore, AvxAustral had become useless for her team.

Stay in the armor

How does the problem occur? The glitch occurs occasionally when trying to exit the Power Armor. The problem has been known for some time, which is why players are advised to simply stay in the armor during missions.

However, AvxAustral needed ammunition and wanted to exit the armor to craft it, and the bug struck immediately.

How did the team react? The group left AvxAustral behind and tried to complete the raid with three members, which ended in disaster.

What does this situation show? Fallout 76 is still struggling with some serious issues. The fact that the Power Armor glitch is still unresolved can unfortunately lead to situations like the one with AvxAustral.

Into the raid

How do you participate in the raid? Turn on the Pip-Boy radio, and you will receive a distress signal from Vault 94. After that, the location will be displayed on your map, and you can travel there.

What does the raid offer? At the vault, you assemble a group of four players and choose one of the three difficulty levels: Rookie, Standard, and Expert. In Rookie, you can take as much time as you want; the other two are subject to a time limit.

  • For completing missions, you will earn XP, Caps, improved repair kits, legendary currencies, crafting materials, and items like weapons, armors, and plans.
  • Additionally, you will get Vault 94 steel, which you use to craft the special vault armor at workbenches.
  • You will obtain the plans for the vault armor if you complete the raid on Standard or Expert difficulty levels.
  • Vault 94 steel, the vault armor, and the plans cannot be dropped, sold, or traded.
  • You receive the rewards once per mission, per day, and per difficulty level.

Bethesda is already planning more raids for Fallout 76. However, the problem with the Power Armor needs to be resolved urgently first.

Today, Pokémon GO launches the final Raid Hour with Rayquaza – Join us

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 2 minutes

The raid hour on August 21 is a special event in Pokémon GO that you should participate in. You will find Rayquaza raids in many places, and this is important.

What kind of event is this? The legendary raid hour is a special event in Pokémon GO that is activated regularly. Within 60 minutes, you can find particularly many legendary raids at the gyms.

Today, on August 21, you will find a raid with Rayquaza in almost every gym during the event.

When does the Rayquaza raid hour take place? The event runs today, Wednesday, from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM. You will find Rayquaza raids everywhere. If there are other raids active at a gym at 6 PM, Rayquaza might appear delayed or not at all.

This is the last raid hour with Rayquaza for now. For the next event of this kind, there will be other opponents. Niantic has already announced a raid hour with the lake trio, Mesprit, Uxie, and Azelf, on August 28.

Legendary raid hour with Rayquaza on August 21 – Is it worth it?

It’s worth it for this Shiny: There are many reasons to participate in this event. One of the most important is the Shiny form of Rayquaza that you might encounter. Players especially celebrate this variant of the shiny Pokémon.

Instead of its green color, a shiny Rayquaza appears in a darker color. The chance of encountering a Shiny during the raid hour today is about 1 in 20.

If you didn’t have luck at the Rayquaza raid hour at the beginning of August, you might secure this rare form of the Pokémon today.

How strong is Rayquaza: Another reason why you should definitely have a few Rayquaza in your collection is its strength. It is the strongest dragon Pokémon in Pokémon GO.

Counter Rayquaza – Best Counters

To ensure you and your team achieve many successes during the raid hour, you should use good counters. The strongest attackers against Rayquaza include Glaceon and Mamoswine.

Don’t have these icy counters yet? No problem. Getting counters for Rayquaza is quite easy.

You can find an overview of all counters to Rayquaza here:

Dota 2: 59 seconds Twitch clip shows reaction to a bad mistake

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 2 minutes

During the huge Dota 2 tournament “The International”, there was a decisive battle between Royal Never Give Up and Alliance. The stage couldn’t be bigger, as Alliance’s captain made a critical mistake: he picked the wrong hero. The reaction, however, is delightful.

What is the situation? Currently, the huge tournament “Dota 2 International” is taking place. It involves a massive prize pool of over 33 million $, the best teams in the world are there – it’s a really big deal for everyone involved.

Two teams faced off in a decisive match. It was a “Best of One” – whoever loses is eliminated from the tournament.

They played:

  • The Chinese team Royal Never Give Up
  • And Alliance, a team from Europe based in Sweden
Dota-2-Gyrocopter
Gyrocopter – the captain of Alliance wanted to ban the hero and instead picked him.

Misclick with big consequences – because it’s all on the line

This is the mistake: The mistake does not happen in the game, but in the “Pick and Ban” phase. Here, players in MOBA games select their own heroes and ban certain heroes from being played by their opponents.

The clock was ticking down and the pressure was mounting: The captain of Alliance wanted to ban the hero Gyrocopter for the opponents, but instead he chose Gyrocopter as the hero for his own team.

While Gyrocopter is no longer available for the opposing team, the hero apparently did not fit into Alliance’s strategy at all.

That’s why the mistake is so serious: The mistake is so grave because it cannot be corrected or adjusted anymore. The team then has to go into the match with this “suboptimal” lineup – at a high level this is often already a foregone conclusion in Dota 2.

Especially bad is the mistake because it is completely unnecessary.

Dota-2-RNG-Reaktion
The Chinese quickly realize what is happening with the Swedes.

The 3 phases of the clip

This is what happens in the Twitch clip: In the clip, you can wonderfully see how team captain Aydin “iNSaNiA” Sarkoh makes this pick, nervously anticipates the game, and then slowly realizes what he has done. He asks: “Seriously? Did that just happen?”

The Chinese seem to be having a great time as they realize that the Swedes made a terrible mistake. One even says: “They’re doomed.”

Then the Swedes seem to rally together and want to make something of the situation. At the end of the Twitch clip, the captain can even smile a bit wryly. He has no other choice but to deal with the situation.

This is how it all ended: As dexerto reports, Alliance actually lost the match and was eliminated. But it was by no means clear – the game lasted 40 minutes and Alliance made them pay dearly. They still go home while Royal Never Give Up continues to fight for the gigantic prize pool of the Dota 2 International.

Which class are you playing in Season 18 of Diablo 3? Ask the Wheel of Fate

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 2 minutes

In Diablo 3, the start of Season 18 is near. Have you decided which class you will play? Spin the Wheel of Fate to find out which class you should play in August 2019.

Why class choice? When a new season starts in Diablo 3, every player begins at the very beginning, at level 1. Then, they create a fresh seasonal character and embark on a new adventure with it.

Many Diablo 3 players take a new season as an excuse to try out a different class, deviating from the class they have played repeatedly in the past seasons.

However, there are also players who stay loyal to their class and bring it back every season.

Diablo 3 Class Title Wiz DH

What’s new in Season 18 for Diablo 3: With the start of Season 18 this week, Diablo 3 is playing the new patch 2.6.6 on the live servers. The patch brings a cool new gem that works in a way similar to the “Legacy of Dreams” set.

Additionally, some legendary properties have been revised, and several new ones are introduced. The craftable sets have also been adjusted. These changes can enhance builds and highlight classes in their effectiveness. Maybe a reason to play a new class in Season 18?

Remnant: From the Ashes – The first tests of the coop shooter say

Andreas Bertits Andreas Bertits Reading time 2 minutes

The coop shooter Remnant: From the Ashes (PC, PS4, Xbox One) launched on August 20th and players are excited. But what does the press say in initial reviews of the action game? We’ll take a look at the reviews.

Here are the Metacritic ratings for Remnant: Players view the coop shooter a bit more positively than the press.

  • Player ratings: 86/100 for the PC version, 96 out of 100 for the PS version, 95 out of 100 for the game on Xbox One
  • Press ratings: 77/100 for the PC version. There aren’t enough individual ratings yet for the PS4 and Xbox One versions.

Players often rate it 90/100, and in some cases also 100/100 or 80/100 points.

According to the press, the ratings on Metacritic usually fall in the mid to high 70s or low 80s. There are only a few outliers up or down.

The shooter is well received by the press

What does the press say about the shooter? The press generally agrees on the exciting combat and the challenging but fair difficulty level. However, there are still areas for optimization, which is why Remnant is referred to as an “unpolished diamond.”

Worthplaying summarizes the game: “Overall, Remnant: From the Ashes is a solid attempt to change the Soulsborne formula. It doesn’t quite measure up to FromSoftware’s titles, but it has its own strengths…If you’re looking for a coop-based Souls game, Remnant is worth a look.”

We also took an early look at the shooter some time ago and wrote our opinion in a preview report.

Very good reviews on Steam

What are the ratings on Steam like? The rating of the shooter is currently at 91% and “very positive,” as of August 21, 2019. The combat, reminiscent of Dark Souls, as well as the coop gameplay and atmosphere are repeatedly praised.

According to Steamcharts, over 18,100 players are currently playing simultaneously on average. At peak times, there were even more than 26,500 players at once.

Since the coop shooter Remnant: From the Ashes just launched on August 20th, we obviously have to wait and see how the shooter performs in the long term with players. Will it keep players engaged over time? Will the developers release new content quickly enough?

All of this will affect ratings and player numbers in the coming weeks and months.

Currently, Cyberpunk 2077’s Status Regarding Multiplayer and DLCs

Micha Deckert Micha Deckert Reading time 2 minutes

What modes will Cyberpunk 2077 have besides the campaign? And what about content that will be released after the game? At the ongoing gamescom, the producer of Cyberpunk 2077 spoke about further content and multiplayer modes.

Is multiplayer coming? At the ongoing gamescom 2019, CD Projekt Red is also present to talk about the upcoming Cyberpunk 2077. The futuristic title, in which actor Keanu Reeves plays a role, is set to be released on April 16, 2020.

In an interview with GameSpot, the producer of the game, Richard Borzymowski, briefly spoke about a possible multiplayer. However, he didn’t want to reveal much and kept it as short as possible:

We are exploring multiplayer modes. That’s all I can say at the moment.

While this is not yet a confirmation of multiplayer for Cyberpunk 2077, the studio at least indicates that they are considering a multiplayer, or even several modes.

Keanu Reeves plays the role of Johnny Silverhand in Cyberpunk 2077

What has been said about DLCs? Expansions and DLCs that will expand the game world with new content after the release of Cyberpunk 2077 were also briefly mentioned. The studio knows how well the DLCs and expansions for The Witcher were received. Currently, the developers are focusing entirely on the main game.

Considering how well the expansions of The Witcher were received, it’s time to think [about expansions for Cyberpunk 2077].

Cyberpunk-2077 Character

What has been the situation so far? A multiplayer mode for Cyberpunk 2077 has often come up. A real confirmation of whether such a mode will come or not is still pending.

Recently, it was said that a multiplayer and even several games in the Cyberpunk universe are in planning. However, this was a translation error.

In October 2018, there was news that CD Projekt had entered into a partnership with the external studio Digital Scapes. Digital Scapes has worked on the PvP mode for Dying Light, among other things, and is a specialist in multiplayer solutions.

In Destiny 2 Shadowkeep you can (almost) look like the Vex – New armor known

Tom Rothstein Tom Rothstein Reading time 3 minutes

In Destiny 2, Shadowkeep brings a new armor in Vex style for your Guardians. Check it out here.

This armor is about: Already in the gameplay trailer from gamescom 2019 for Destiny 2 Shadowkeep observant Guardians could spot a new armor with a striking look. For a brief moment, a Titan appeared in the shot, boxing a Knight – wearing this armor:

destiny 2 vex armor

The Titan wears a helmet adorned with a glowing red “Vex Eye.” The rest of the armor also resembles the Vex due to its metallic, robotic appearance.

Meanwhile, the complete design of the Vex armor for all Guardian classes has appeared on the official Bungie site for Shadowkeep. Here it is:

destiny 2 shadowkeep vex armor guardian
  • The Titan has the Vex Eye, a horn on the helmet, and two metallic wings on the back.
  • The Hunter in the middle features three glowing red eyes. Notably, he does not wear a cool Hunter cape over his head, making him appear relatively bare.
  • The Warlock does not have a typical Vex Eye on his helmet but rather a glowing stripe.

The Vex are nasty robot aliens that Guardians have been combating since the launch of Destiny 1. This is what they look like:

destiny-vex

This Vex armor is well received

Here are the first reactions from the community: A user on reddit writes: “Damn, the new Vex armor is awesome,” and he receives hundreds of upvotes.

Many are excited that there is finally a new armor inspired by enemy races.

Additionally, there are some amusing remarks about the armors – especially regarding the Hunter and the Titan:

  • The Titan looks like a mix between a jet and a unicorn
  • and the Hunter looks almost like a Titan – while others find it great that the Hunter also gets a cape without a hood.

Moreover, it is mentioned that a very similar armor was already seen in the last ViDoc:

The look is not completely identical. However, the matching elements have been highlighted. There is speculation that this could be an ornament for the Vex armor.

What’s the deal with the Vex armor? In the upcoming Season 8, there will be an invasion of the Vex. Thematically, this armor fits into that.

Season 8 is called “Season of the Undying” – you can watch the first trailer here.

Guild Wars 2 is bringing an expansion for professions after 6 years

Alexander Leitsch Alexander Leitsch Reading time 3 minutes

Six years ago, the MMORPG Guild Wars 2 introduced a new skill level for professions. At that time, six of the eight crafting professions were raised to level 500. Now in 2019, coinciding with the seventh birthday, one of the missing professions is catching up.

Which profession will be expanded? Until now, only the professions that actively craft armor or weapons can be raised to level 500. With the upcoming update, chefs will also have their skill level increased and bring new buff food.

With this, ArenaNet fulfills another part of their announced roadmap for new features. Additionally, this is the first major expansion for professions since 2013. Since then, there have only been sporadic new recipes.

Guild Wars 2 brings new weapon to the shop – players say: “This is stolen!”
von Alexander Leitsch

When will the update for chefs be released? Next Tuesday, August 27, a patch is expected to release that will implement the expansion for the profession.

The new recipes could become very interesting, as the right buff food plays an important role in group content such as raids or fractals, even though they are currently being neglected from the players’ perspective.

Ascended Buff Food also enhances Gold and Karma

What is the new buff food like? According to the blog post, the new ascended foods are supposed to increase a primary and a secondary attribute. At the same time, the buff food has an active or passive effect.

This results in three enhancements for the new buff food, while previous foods contained two attributes or one attribute and one effect.

The old buff food mostly passively increased experience gain. The new food, on the other hand, directly enhances all of the following secondary attributes:

  • Experience points
  • Karma
  • Magic find
  • Gold find
  • World experience points

How does the path to skill level 500 work? First, you need a chef at level 400, the previous maximum level. Then you will level him up to level 425 using existing recipes after the patch is released.

Starting at 425, the sous chef Seimur Ochsenknochen will give you various new tasks and recipes that should then raise the chef’s level to 500.

Additionally, on August 30, there will be a major announcement event for Guild Wars 2. We have already speculated about what new features might be presented there:

You need to know these facts about “Layering” in WoW Classic

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

The layering in WoW Classic is a big topic. We will tell you what you need to know about this type of server division.

In World of Warcraft Classic, a special technology is used at the beginning to facilitate the entry into the original Azeroth. However, there are many unresolved questions about layering. Blizzard has now clarified a significant part of the uncertainties. We certainly do not want to withhold the relevant answers from you.

What is layering? Layering refers in WoW Classic to the technology of running multiple “instances” of a server simultaneously. Although all players have selected the same realm “Everlook”, there are several layers, meaning multiple copies of this realm. This divides the players and prevents the areas from becoming overly crowded.

WoW-Asmongold-and-Friends-Classic-Stress-Test-1140x445
To ensure that it doesn’t look like THIS in the starting area later, layering is implemented.

Why is layering necessary? This ensures that thousands of players do not congregate simultaneously in the starting areas. Because then hardly anyone would be able to complete a quest. The progress for everyone would be massively hindered, ruining the first moments. To create a bit of distribution among the players, they are placed in different layers.

You can find out if you can play WoW Classic for free here.

Can you switch layers? If you want to switch to another layer, you just need to be invited to a group by a friend. Then there is a short delay before you are transferred to your friend’s layer. Players always end up in the layer of the group leader. This ensures that friends can truly play together.

By the way, you will not switch as long as you are in combat.

Can the layer be exploited in PvP? Some players are concerned that with layering on a PvP server, nonsense can occur. There is concern that players can simply be invited by a friend who plays on another layer to escape an attacker and bring themselves to safety.

It has already been confirmed that this will not be possible. Anyone involved in a PvP fight will have a longer delay before they can switch layers. This time only runs out while they are not in a PvP fight. This is to ensure that layering does not affect open PvP battles.

How long will layering remain active? Blizzard has not yet provided a specific date, but layering is expected to be disabled “as soon as possible.” It is assumed that the first layers will be merged within the first days after the launch. It will probably only take a few weeks until all layers are gone. Because as long as layering is active, there will not be any new content.

Have you understood everything about layering? Or are there still uncertainties? Do you think it’s good that Blizzard uses layering?

PS5: Sony also wants to create multiplayer games for everyone – Instead of only exclusive titles

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 2 minutes

At Sony, the head of the Gaming Studios, Shawn Layden, hints at a change in philosophy. The aim is to develop more online games in the future that will also be available on other platforms like PC. This could mean that there will be fewer PS5-exclusive titles compared to PS4 times, when God of War and Horizon Zero Dawn shone. This change is seen as a reaction to Fortnite .

Who is speaking? It is Shawn Layden speaking. He is the head of Sony’s worldwide Game Studios. These studios have primarily been responsible in the past for supplying the PlayStation 4 with exclusive titles.

Sony has 14 of these studios worldwide, including companies like

  • Naughty Dog – known for Uncharted and The Last of Us
  • Guerilla Games – the creators of Horizon Zero Dawn
  • And the Santa Monica Studio – the minds behind God of War
horizon-zero-dawn-test

Exclusive Titles often Singleplayer Hits

What were the major exclusive titles for PS4? Players on PC or Xbox One could only look on enviously at the PS4 when many hits from Sony’s in-house studios were released, which they missed out on.

Memorable games in the current generation include God of War or Horizon Zero Dawn. These were AAA blockbuster titles designed to push the PlayStation 4.

These games are viewed by Sony as fostering the sales of the console itself and are thus cross-financed. Therefore, these games do not need to generate revenue through games-as-a-service practices; apparently, pure retail sales suffice here.

The major exclusive titles for PS4 were singleplayer titles.

ps5_sony_playstation_5

PlayStation will be supported, but Multiplayer Titles are coming

This is the announcement: In a conversation with bloomberg , Layden says:

„We need to support the PlayStation platform – that is non-negotiable. Now that this is said: You will see titles coming from us in the future that may require a larger install base.”

Times are changing – also for Sony

This might be behind it: Bloomberg adds that this is likely a reaction to the success of Fortnite and the industry’s shift to Free2Play titles, which Sony must also respond to. Therefore, some games, especially multiplayer titles, will be developed in a way that they can also be played on PCs.

This strategy will apparently mainly apply to the PlayStation 5. It is expected to be released at the end of 2020.

Sony is currently undergoing a transformation, as tech giants like Google are entering the gaming space. A few weeks ago, Sony formed a partnership with Microsoft.

The developer of Borderlands 3 wonders why Destiny has not copied anymore

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

A developer of Borderlands 3 speaks quite casually about the development of games in recent years. He wonders why others have not taken more from Borderlands.

In the course of the gamescom 2019 there are currently various interviews and releases about different games. Chris Brock, one of the producers of Borderlands 3, spoke with colleagues from PCGamesN. He wonders why other games have not copied more from Borderlands.

What was discussed? In the interview, it was not only about Borderlands 3 but also about the competitors and rivals of the game. So other loot shooters, such as Destiny 2 or The Division 2. Brock confirmed that they had “learned a lot from these games”.

They specifically analyzed what these games do well and also what does not work well for them. Only after that did the team gain an understanding of what they wanted to do themselves and could then implement that vision.

Shooting mechanics inspired by Titanfall and Destiny: During the discussion about endgame content, it was also about the weapons in Borderlands. After all, the game boasts having nearly infinite weapons. In doing so, Brock specifically mentioned Titanfall and Destiny. These games have “wonderful shooting mechanics” and they themselves do not want a multitude of weapons if they feel terrible.

Did Borderlands influence other games? According to PCGamesN, Brock appeared somewhat shocked that this influence apparently only runs in one direction. He said:

There are moments when I wonder why some of these games have not copied from us [Borderlands].

Do you see it the same way as Chris Brock? Or do you find many elements in games like Destiny or The Division that are clearly inspired by Borderlands?

How Synced: Off Planet differs from other survival shooters

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 3 minutes

During the gamescom 2019, the survival shooter Synced: Off Planet was introduced. Viewers see direct comparisons to Division or World War Z. But what are the differences?

What is Synced: Off Planet? The Chinese game giant Tencent is responsible for, among other things, Ring of Elysium. With Synced: Off Planet, they are currently working on a new shooter that is set to be released in 2020. In Synced, the battle is PvPvE – your enemies are other players and cyborgs known as “Nanos”.

To escape from the dangerous cyborgs that inhabit the planet, all survivors want to leave this planet. And that is a tough fight among survivors.

These comparisons made by gamers: Under the trailer on YouTube, one can read sentences like:

  • “It looks just like World War Z with a touch of Division”
  • “So Division but with space zombies”
  • “World War Z: Robot Edition”
  • “Well, that looks like Tom Clancy’s The Division with zombie DLC”

But how true are these comparisons? We show you how Synced differs from other shooters you already know.

The differences of Synced to Division, WWZ, and other shooters

First of all, it should be said that Synced: Off Planet is not a first-person shooter, but a third-person shooter. During the gamescom together, Synced: Off Planet was already an important topic:

50 players on a map

A match in Synced consists of up to 50 players and 1,000 Nanos on a single map. The players are divided into 16 teams with up to 3 players.

No zombies, but Nano-Bots

Your PvE enemies are the “Nanos” – these are cyborg enemies that have been corrupted by nanotechnology. You protect your base from the Nanos, which continuously attack in waves.

Artificially created microorganisms have taken control over technology and humanity. These organisms turn into dangerous cyborgs.

Survivors gather to strengthen the team

At the start of a match, you first roam the map collecting more survivors on the planet. Then you build a base. In this base, survivors are healed – you strengthen the group there.

Piece by piece, you fight your way to the rescue shuttles.

No loot shooter

Unlike The Division, Synced is not a loot shooter. Everything is clearly focused on the three core elements:

  • The collection of survivors
  • Building a base to strengthen the group and heal survivors
  • Escorting as many survivors as possible to the rescue shuttles

Mind games with opponents

As a special ability, you can synchronize with other players or opponents. When you use this skill on teammates, you see through their eyes. When applied to Nanos, you can control a group of them.

So by controlling the Nanos, you can trick the other players.

Synced off Planet Nanos

When is the release of Synced: Off Planet?

The shooter is currently still in a pre-alpha.

Beta phase: An open beta is planned to start in early 2020, which will initially be available on PC. Whether it will be on Steam or the Epic Games Store is still unclear.

Consoles will also be included at release.

Can FIFA 20 deliver on its promises? FIFA pro Cihan tells us today in the stream

During the gamescom 2019, we find out with pro Cihan whether FIFA 20 can deliver on all its big promises. Join us live in the gamescom together stream.

What to expect: For gamescom 2019, we have a special highlight planned for all FIFA fans. In our stream, we will investigate together with pro Cihan whether FIFA 20 really lives up to its pre-release promises.

When does the stream start? On Wednesday, August 21st, it will start at 2:30 PM. Keep this time free to tune in. We will talk for half an hour about EA Sports’ upcoming football simulation.

fifa-20-sancho-bvb

What happens in the stream? We will play with Cihan “Advert or Truth” about FIFA 20. We will quote some slogans that EA Sports uses to promote FIFA 20 – and see if they are truthful or just empty advertising phrases that have nothing to do with reality. After all, developers often exaggerate when they drum up the promotional campaign.

Cihan was able to play FIFA 20 extensively and will provide honest first impressions in the stream.

Who is Cihan actually? Cihan Yasarlar is in his mid-20s, comes from Berlin – and is a professional FIFA player. He is contracted as an eSports athlete with RB Leipzig. Cihan has already achieved several successes. He is the ESL champion of the years 2017 and 2018 and has also been champion of the Virtual Bundesliga. He is also a FIFA European champion 2017. He is considered one of the best German FIFA players.

Pokémon GO: Countdown ends tonight – All about the possible release of Jirachi

Noah Struthoff Noah Struthoff Reading time 2 minutes

Tonight, on August 20th, there should be big news about Jirachi in Pokémon GO. We will give you an overview of what we already know about the Pokémon.

Update August 21 at 11:00 AM: The Jirachi quest is now available. We have summarized the tasks you need to complete.

Update 10:00 PM: There is still no information about Jirachi. Niantic hasn’t posted any further images on Twitter.

Why is it expected tonight? For several days, Pokémon GO has been teasing Jirachi again. A countdown will expire tonight at 10:00 PM.

By then, there will definitely be new information about the mysterious Pokémon. Whether it will be released immediately or if there will just be an announcement remains to be seen.

We will keep you updated on MeinMMO and will update this post as soon as there is new information about Jirachi.

Jirachi in Pokémon GO – What is known about the release?

How will Jirachi be released? This is not the first release of Jirachi. There was already a chance to catch the monster at all 3 GO Fests in 2019. It was available through a special research.

So it can be assumed that there will be a special research again this time. This is common for mysterious Pokémon.

Is there any information about the special research? A few weeks ago, a leak regarding a special research appeared. The data miner Chrales found the test passages that Professor Willow will say to you during the research.

This gives a rough idea of what tasks there will be. For example, you should close new friendships and catch Psychic and Steel-type Pokémon. If the leak turns out to be true, you can expect quests like these.

Jirachi GO Fest
At the GO Fest in Dortmund, some players were already able to catch Jirachi

Do you need Jirachi? The mysterious Pokémon is definitely not useless, but also not very meta-relevant. It exceeds 3200 CP and has solid stats.

As an attacker, it has a lot of competition that it cannot overcome. Therefore, it remains much more of a Pokémon for collecting rather than for battling.

We will show you which Pokémon from Generation 5 are waiting for you here:

Destiny 2: Weekly Reset on 20th August – The Last Solstice Week Begins

Tom Rothstein Tom Rothstein Reading time 3 minutes

In Destiny 2 today, on August 20th, is the Weekly Reset. There are new activities and challenges to tackle. Additionally, you should ensure that you complete your Solstice armor soon.

Here’s what you should do now in Destiny 2: While Bungie is currently focused on the gamescom 2019 discussing the future of Destiny 2, you only have one week left to upgrade your Solstice armor to legendary rank.

With today’s Weekly Reset, the last week of the Solstice of Heroes – the Summer Event 2019 – begins. Although you can still upgrade the armor to Masterwork afterward, the step from blue to legendary armor is only possible until August 27th. So hurry up.

What’s new in Destiny 2? So far, Bungie has surprisingly revealed a lot at gamescom. In addition to two new trailers, fresh Exotics and even a new endgame activity from Shadowkeep have been unveiled. You can find all the information collected on our Destiny 2 page.

Fortnite: New item was supposed to counter Mech – But is it now too strong?

Noah Struthoff Noah Struthoff Reading time 2 minutes

In Fortnite the Junk Rift is a new item that is supposed to be particularly strong against the Mech. However, it could be too powerful.

What is the Junk Rift? Update 10.10 introduced the item “Junk Rift” to the game. It is a kind of airstrike that can be called in. Instead of bombs, different items drop from the sky that flatten everything underneath.

In the introductory video of the new item, you can already see the main target of the Junk Rift: the overpowering Mech. However, it seems that the Junk Rift will not only be a counter but might also be a bit too strong otherwise.

Junk Rift in Fortnite – Too strong or a good counter?

Where is the problem? The Junk Rift not only easily destroys the Mech but just about everything. It is therefore not just a counter but also a powerful weapon against the building kings in Fortnite.

So anyone who has just built up and wants to heal might be crushed by a port-a-potty or a giant anchor when the Junk Rift is deployed.

https://twitter.com/JDean773/status/1163796678710874112
Everything is destroyed under the Junk Rift

Is the Junk Rift a good counter? The item has another disadvantage. It takes a long time to create destruction. So if you want to use the Junk Rift against a Mech, it has to be standing still, because otherwise, the robot can easily run away.

The Junk Rift is therefore not a great counter against the Mech, but much more against campers who barricade themselves in buildings.

Junk Rift

Here could be problems: Especially in the eSports scene, the Junk Rift could cause tensions. After all, it is quite normal there to build up at the end of the round and play in close quarters.

If a dinosaur comes from the sky that flattens everything underneath, there could be many kills.

What do you think of the Junk Rift? A good item or too strong?

Before the Jirachi unveiling in Pokémon GO, trainers are mocking Niantic

Noah Struthoff Noah Struthoff Reading time 2 minutes

For days, Pokémon GO has been teasing the reveal of Jirachi. In line with this, they post a new image of the Pokémon every day. Trainers are now making fun of this.

How are they making fun of it? For the release of Jirachi, Niantic has come up with something special. They have shown an image of a starry sky every day. With each passing day, the constellation has become clearer, and Jirachi has become recognizable.

This is exactly where the players are having fun. They are spotting other Pokémon in the constellation and sharing these sightings on Twitter.

Jirachi in the constellation – Or what do you recognize?

This is the original image: First, we show you the image from the latest teaser for Jirachi. The outlines of Jirachi can be seen quite clearly in the starry sky:

It can also go like this: Some trainers do not recognize Jirachi at all, but rather completely different things and show this on Twitter.

A highlight from the numerous images is a Pikachu with a Jirachi hat. Pikachu with hats exists often, so why not with a Jirachi hat?

https://twitter.com/hionfructose/status/1163541391009558528

Another trainer suspects that it might be a missing Pokémon from Generation 4. For him, it shows a Rotom wearing a sombrero.

When can we expect Jirachi? These teaser images should conclude this evening, on August 20th. At 10 PM, the last image of Jirachi should arrive.

Whether the mysterious Pokémon will already be here or just announced remains to be seen. Until then, one can calmly continue to search for other Pokémon in the constellation.

Do you want a sneak peek of Generation 5? Here we introduce you to some legendary Pokémon:

Monster Hunter World gives you armor so that you can flatten everything before Iceborne

Micha Deckert Micha Deckert Reading time 2 minutes

The Iceborne expansion for Monster Hunter World is approaching us rapidly. To help all hunters meet the challenges for Iceborne, Capcom provides some assistance. All hunters will receive strong armor and can earn rewards by helping other players.

What kind of armor is this? Even before the release of the Iceborne expansion, players are given a small aid for the big monster hunt. With an update on September 4th, all players of Monster Hunter: World as well as those of Iceborne will receive the Guardian Armor.

The armor can be upgraded and has higher defense values and some helpful abilities. Players can use the set right from the start, gaining an advantage in the story of Monster Hunter World.

The Guardian Armor, as presented in the developer diary

The developers say about the armor that, besides the higher defense, it also possesses optimal skills to survive in the harsh world of Monster Hunter World. The armor is said to be so powerful that it will carry players through the story of the game and can even be used in High Rank.

Monster Hunter World Guardian Armor Skills

What is Hunter Helper? Additionally, a new feature has been introduced, allowing players to earn rewards by assisting other hunters.

With Hunter Helper, users can help players in the High and Low ranks at Master Rank. High Rank hunters assist Low Rank players. Players who respond to help requests and complete quests together with other players will receive an additional reward corresponding to their rank. There is also an exclusive in-game trophy for helping teammates.

What is all this for? Hunters must meet a certain requirement to begin with the expansion: They must have completed the main game’s story and reached rank 16.

According to the developers, they aim to assist players with the Guardian Armor and the Hunter Helper system, ensuring that as many players as possible have the opportunity to play Iceborne.

The Iceborne expansion will be released on consoles PS4 and Xbox One on September 6, 2019. The PC release is planned for January 2020.
