In Pokémon GO there will be a raid hour again tonight! This is reported by players from New Zealand who have already encountered increased Mewtwo raids.
During this hour, a legendary raid will appear at each gym that does not currently have a raid or where an EX raid has been triggered. This time it revolves around Mewtwo with armor.
This is reported by players from New Zealand on Reddit. It was already 6 PM there and the raid hour has already taken place.
All information about the first raid hour with Mewtwo
When does it start? As usual, the raid hour starts tonight at 6 PM. Until 7 PM, you will encounter more Mewtwo raids.
You will find Mewtwo with armor in the raids
Will there only be Mewtwo? Within the hour, you will only encounter Mewtwo with armor. However, if another raid boss has hatched shortly before 6 PM, you can also battle that.
Will there be further raid hours with Mewtwo? Niantic has not said anything about that yet. However, it is quite possible that Mewtwo will also appear more frequently in the next two Wednesdays.
After all, there has been a raid hour almost every Wednesday now. It is quite conceivable that Niantic will stick to this pattern.
In recent months, there has been very little news about the MMORPG Ashes of Creation. There has also been little news about the PvP mode Apocalypse presented in December. However, there has been a developer update announcing the return of the Battle Royale.
When is Apocalypse coming back? In a new Director’s Letter, the head of Intrepid Studios, Steven Sharif, addresses the players of Ashes of Creation.
The latter is set to enter another test phase on August 20th around 8:00 PM our time. This is the first test since January of this year.
What is Apocalypse? Apocalypse is a standalone PvP game for the MMORPG Ashes of Creation. It was released in December 2018 and was meant to test the combat system and stress the servers.
Originally, the Battle Royale was developed as part of the Alpha for Ashes of Creation. However, the developers later decided to release the game as a Free2Play version independently.
Why did Apocalypse go offline again? The Battle Royale was not online for long after its release. The launch of Apocalypse was delayed by more than 24 hours, and further crashes and major performance issues followed.
What’s new about the MMORPG? Steven Sharif, who is funding the game with his millions, also reports in his letter to the community about the latest developments regarding the Alpha of the MMORPG.
Caravans facilitate trade between nodes and are, according to the developers, an important feature where risk vs. reward and player cooperation are at the forefront.
Caravans can be attacked and destroyed on their journey between cities. The specifics of how the system is structured are explained in a video:

When will the MMORPG Ashes of Creation be released? There is no release date for Ashes of Creation. However, it is certain that it will not be released in 2019.
Our author Alexander Leitsch firmly believes that Ashes of Creation could become a successful MMORPG:
The Eternal Palace in WoW opens its doors today in LFR as well. To ensure you are not “that one” player, we have helpful tips and tricks for you.
After players of World of Warcraft have had a week to enjoy normal and heroic mode in Azshara’s Eternal Palace, the LFR variant is available since today (July 17, 2019). The first three bosses from the Queen’s Palace are waiting to be taken down by you and will generously reward you with loot. We have some tips that should make the fights go smoothly.
What to expect in “The Grand Reception” of the Eternal Palace
The first three bosses are available and make up “The Grand Reception,” the first of three wings in Azshara’s Eternal Palace. You will face Abyssal Commander Sivara, the Blackwater Behemoth, and Azshara’s Glory to conquer this section.
Abyssal Commander Sivara: This Naga is the first boss and will meet you after only a few trash mobs. Although she is the first boss, there are many things to keep in mind as she has several nasty mechanics.
First, she divides all players into two groups. There are players with a green debuff and players with a blue debuff. Make sure you stand in two groups on different sides of the room. On one side only the Greens, on the other side only the Blues. If you come into contact with the other color, the entire raid will take significant damage.
Every few seconds, Sivara fires several projectiles in a circular pattern. The more distance you have from Sivara, the more time you have to dodge. Try not to get hit, as the stacked debuffs can quickly become fatal.
Dodge other area effects that the boss spreads around the room.
Blackwater Behemoth: The fight against the Blackwater Behemoth takes place underwater. At the beginning, you cannot receive healing; instead, you must obtain the Bioluminescence buff. You get this from the two fish next to the boss. Kill one of the fish and swim into the green cloud to receive the buff. Repeat this with the second fish when the first buff expires.
The boss frequently changes his combat platform, and you have to swim after him. Dodge the jellyfish along the way, as they deal significant damage. When crossing abysses, ensure that you do not have Bioluminescence active anymore; otherwise, a beast will appear that will instantly kill you. You may lose the buff while crossing platforms due to currents or simply wait it out.
Keep your distance from other players to reduce damage from some jumping effects. Since you can move in all directions (after all, you are underwater) this should not be a problem.
Azshara’s Glory: Azshara’s Glory is the last boss of the wing and is a bit tougher, as he has several phases and many effects.
In Phase 1, you will dodge tornadoes as they deal damage and can push you into the water.
If you are the target of the bomb (you will have a large arcane effect beneath you), then run away from the group and let the healers dispel you. It is important that you do not drop the bomb in the raid group.
After a while, Phase 2 begins. Here, the combat area darkens, and the boss takes no more damage. You must now run to a large emerging enemy and enter his “Eye of the Storm” to avoid taking damage. Kill all the small adds and the larger elemental so that the boss becomes vulnerable again.
These phases repeat until the fight is won.
By the way, you should not touch any water in this fight, as it harms your character.
Surprisingly, the Summer Games 2019 have already started in Overwatch. There are some new skins, Lucioball, and challenges for the players.
Just a few days ago, Jeff Kaplan announced that the Summer Games 2019 for Overwatch would start a bit earlier this year. However, now it has started much earlier – it has been active since last night! Players have three weeks to indulge in Lúcioball, unlock new skins and emotes, and of course earn plenty of lootboxes.

A different challenge every week: New to the Summer Games 2019 is that in addition to the other events, there are three smaller challenges lasting one week each. Players must win nine matches to unlock sprays and profile pictures first, and then a skin. These skins can be earned:
Week 1: During week 1, you can earn the “American Reaper Skin”. As the name suggests, Reaper is dressed in the colors of America.
Week 2: Week 2 is for all Mei fans. There you unlock the “Zhongguo Mei Skin”, which envelops Mei in elegant red with a dragon on her chest.
Week 3: Week 3 should be a treat for all Germans and Reinhardt fans. The “Bundesadler Reinhardt Skin” gives the knight a black-red-gold coat in the national colors.
More skins: Aside from these three earnable skins, there are also four new legendary skins that you can get from lootboxes.
Genji gets a noble Kendoka skin, in which he wears the traditional armor of the Kendo sport – but his weapon remains deadly. Not particularly suitable for tournaments.
Wrecking Ball a.k.a. Hammond gets the probably most unusual skin. He can now roll over the maps as Lúcioball. Particularly cool: In the Lúcioball mode, the ball is replaced by Hammond and squeaks with every hit!
Torbjörn seems to be fed up and is treating himself to a summer vacation. His “Surf ‘n’ Splash” skin wraps him in swimwear and gives him a superlative water gun. He might also have the first fully automatic water turret.
Hanzo also seems to be after a beach vacation, as he dives into the waves with his “Wave” skin.
How long does the event last? The Summer Games 2019 are active for exactly 3 weeks. So from July 16 to August 5, 2019. But please keep in mind that you can only complete the weekly challenges mentioned above during the respective week they are active.
Are you also really looking forward to the Summer Games? Or are you waiting for real innovations in Overwatch?
Have you ever sat down and created little drawings of fantasy weapons for Destiny 2 ? The artistically talented Guardian Plain Ben has called on the community to send him their sketches and doodles. From these, he crafted incredibly good weapon concepts that every player would likely love to have in their arsenal.
Who is the weapon master? The artistically talented Guardian Plain Ben recently showcased his weapon concept drawings on his Twitter account and in the Destiny subreddit. He created these in collaboration with the community.
For over two years, he has collected drawings, doodles, and sketches from players to turn them into actual weapon concepts.
Among the Guardians who sent Plain Ben their sketches were also well-known faces from the community, such as the lore master Byf and the community manager Cozmo.
Drawings like the one above were transformed by Plain Ben into actual concepts. Source: Plain Ben Twitter
What were these sketches like? As Plain Ben states, the drawings ranged from just a few lines to detailed sketches. Some of the doodles were intentionally made to look “bad” just to see what the artist could create from them.
According to his own statement, Plain Ben tried to keep the weapons in the Destiny design and stay as close to the “template” as possible.
This is a selection of the weapons that Plain Ben was able to create with the help of the Guardians. Source: Reddit
What do the players say? The weapon concepts are well received in the community. Many players have already found their favorites that they would love to have in the game.
Some Guardians jokingly demand that Bungie hire Plain Ben so he can truly design weapons for the game.
The user Glamdring804 inquired in the Reddit post if he could come up with perks for the weapons and has already delivered some for a few of the guns. Other Guardians proposed flavor texts, the texts that appear under the weapon name and describe them.
Others contributed smaller lore snippets. It seems that the collaboration with the community is not yet finished.
In Harry Potter: Wizards Unite the first Community Day in July is approaching. We will show you the times and bonuses and how to make the most of the event.
What is a Community Day? The events under the name “Community Day” have been around since early 2018 in Pokémon GO. These are events in the game that last for a few hours on a single day and provide participants with interesting bonuses.
A Community Day is great for getting together with a group of players and taking advantage of the bonuses. This way, you get to know your local community (better).
What time and on which day will the Community Day take place? On Saturday, July 20, 2019, the first Community Day in Harry Potter: Wizards Unite will take place. The event runs for three hours from 12:00 PM to 3:00 PM.
What bonuses are there? First, you can look forward to a free package that contains 50 spell energy and a Baruffio’s Brain Elixir.
If you use Baruffio’s Brain Elixir during the event period, the potion grants you triple instead of double XP for traces, wizard challenges, and portkeys.
You will find more traces throughout the map. There is a higher chance of finding traces for the Hogwarts School.
Anti-obscurants last 1 hour instead of 30 minutes when used at inns.
Are there exclusive event bonuses? At Community Days in Pokémon GO, the developers at Niantic offer trainers special shiny Pokémon. These are rare color variants of existing Pokémon that are released for the first time during these events.
Whether there will be similar special collectibles for the Community Days in Wizards Unite is not yet known.
We will inform you here on MeinMMO when there is more information about the Community Day. Are you new to the game? Then take a look at these tips:
The recently announced MMORPG Seconds from Silence can be tested in just a few days. The developers have now announced the date for the alpha phase.
What is Seconds from Silence? It is a sandbox MMORPG where you explore a very dangerous fantasy world. This world is supposed to be realized as realistically as possible.
It is up to you whether you play an honorable citizen who supplies others with equipment through crafting or if you become a bandit who leads a whole gang.
When can you play? The developers have only announced so far that the alpha starts in August. However, you can already register for this testing phase from July 19 at 3 PM our time.
How can you participate? There are several ways to play the alpha:
You will receive a link to the “Four Pillar Alpha Testing” page
There you will register for the alpha test
You can also sign up for the newsletter
Then you will receive a link to the “Four Pillar Alpha Testing” page, where you can then register
How are the testers selected? Those who can participate in the alpha will be randomly selected from all registered community members.
A good insight into the new MMORPG
What does the alpha offer? The four pillars of the MMORPG are to be tested:
Character creation
Combat
Building
Ruling
You will create a hero with whom you explore the world and fight against enemies. It is possible to construct initial buildings and elevate yourself to a ruler who must care for their people.
Are there rewards? Those selected for the alpha of Seconds from Silence can also participate in further test phases. In addition, testers will receive a forum and an in-game title.
What if you are not selected? There will be more test phases for which more players will be selected. You will then get another chance.
The clan “Reaper Lords” in Red Dead Online selects carefully which new members are accepted. Only a few pass the initiation ritual. Would you join this group in Red Dead Redemption 2?
What makes the clan special? The Reaper Lords clan already made a name for itself in GTA Online. The members formed a unique biker gang there with outfits, hierarchy, and code of conduct. They played GTA Online much more intensely than other players.
With the release of Red Dead Redemption 2, the clan moved into the cowboy adventure. Although they are now riding horses instead of choppers, they have maintained their tough attitude.

Anyone wishing to join the group must first undergo a series of tests and prove they truly want to be part of it.
How long does the recruitment process take? As the website Polygon reports, the recruitment process takes months. This was stated by the leader of the Reaper Lords, “Dirty_Worka”. During this time, there are several tests to complete.
Scout enemies: If you are in the recruitment process of the Reaper Lords, your scouting skills might be called upon. Dirty_Worka says that recruits may be asked to conduct reconnaissance on other groups.
This also includes writing summaries and detailed reports on the activities and locations of the members. In the future, the new jobs that are offered in Red Dead Online will likely be important as well.
Organize events: Recruits are expected to create unique events and present them to the entire group. If recruits have a concept for an event, they must promote it with flyers and word of mouth.
During special events, like the horse show last weekend, recruits prove their skills in the game. Insights into the choreography of the horse show can be found here in the Twitter clip.
Only after months will it be known who among them deserves a place in the group.

As Dirty_Worka reports, the preparation for the choreography shown above took two weeks. This was mainly due to the fact that the recruits were not allowed to communicate with each other during the performance. This way, beginners could develop good teamwork skills.
Adventures like this crazy handcar ride are definitely not among the events that recruits must complete.
The bond works even in the real world
Since the group was founded in 2013, the Reaper Lords have grown rapidly. There are over 70 members. They regularly hold meetings.
The members ride motorcycles together. They say that these biker experiences also help in Red Dead Online. Dirty_Worka writes on Twitter: “The biggest point with horses is understanding that stopping and going is like changing gears.”

In Destiny 2 today, on July 16th, the Weekly Reset is happening. For the Guardians, there are fresh weekly activities and challenges again. Additionally, new Nightfall strikes and a new Flashpoint are available. You can find out what else to do here.
This week, Destiny 2 is taking it relatively easy. No new event and no new quest are awaiting you. For many, the week will likely revolve around the new exotic pulse rifle Bad Juju and its masterwork catalyst, as well as the tributes needed for it. That’s why we’ve summarized everything important about Bad Juju for you:
The Flashpoint this week is located on Mercury. Complete this and the corresponding heroic adventure to receive 2 Powerful rewards.
At Werner/Benedict 99-40, there are 4 weekly bounties. For completing each individual bounty, you will receive a Powerful reward. However, if you complete all 4 tasks, you will receive an additional Powerful reward. Additionally, you can secure up to 3 more Powerful items in the Menagerie. However, you should have made corresponding upgrades to your Chalice of Opulence.
All 7 Powerful weapon shapes can be found at Ada-1.
Complete 20 random bounties and Ikora Rey will gift you a Powerful reward.
Hawthorne rewards you for collecting 5,000 Clan XP with a Powerful reward. More Powerful rewards can be earned for completing the bounties “A Troubling Affair,” “Strength of Memory,” “Stay Focused,” and “Restricted Blessing.”
Petra Venj can currently be found in the Rheasilvia area of the Dreaming City (3rd Curse Week). If you complete her mission, the daily 8 bounties, and the currently active 4th Ascendant Challenge, there is Powerful Loot for each of these tasks.
The Fallen trader Spider will grant you a Powerful reward if you complete his weekly bounty “Arcadia Concord“.
These are the Eververse’s Bright Dust highlights:
the exotic emote “Popcorn”
the multiplayer emote “Connection”
the Titan helmet from the new Eververse set
the Warlock class item from the new Eververse set
an armor ornament for the Hunter chest piece Ophidia Spatha
The MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV entices with a free mount. To receive it, players must do something different in each country. In China, it’s about devouring massive amounts of chicken.
What kind of mount is it? The developers of Final Fantasy XIV are currently offering a free mount in China, a hefty black Chocobo. The mount is very large and features a very overweight Chocobo that is powered by a fishing rod and a Gysahl green.
What must the Chinese do for the mount? The collaboration for the mount in China is probably through the fast-food chain Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC). Because to get the code for the mount, you have to devour a big family meal. It is actually designed for 4 people and includes:
1 x Double Chicken Burger
1 x Vegan Mushroom Burger
1 x 5-piece Chicken Nuggets
2 x “Original Recipe Chicken”
1 x 2-piece “New Orland Chicken Wings”
1 x “Old Beijing Spicy Duck Roll”
2 x large Pepsi
2 x large Peach Oolong Tea
How can you complete the chicken challenge? The prerequisite is that you must directly order this family package at the KFC store and then you will receive the code for a mount. Therefore, many Chinese fans of Final Fantasy XIV see it as a challenge or even a raid.
They meet at KFC and enthusiastically eat their way through the massive amount of chicken. After all, everyone wants a code, so there can be very large amounts on the table that are then consumed together.
Some are said to have even attempted it “solo.” On Chinese social media, various memes and posts are circulating that report on the tough battle against the family meal.
“I said I could do it solo, but I got wiped after the roll, the chicken, and 2 wings!”
“Never again. The lady next to me looked at me like I was a pig!”
“I was wiped solo after 5%. You MUST distribute the damage from the Pepsi, don’t let them stack!”
Will they make it?
The pet helps out.
The version for 4 codes.
Besides the Pepsi, the notorious mushroom burger is said to be a real killer that wipes many teams out at the end.
And even though some rumors say that you must hold the chicken massacre live in the restaurant, there are various Chinese players who have already posted on social media that you do not have to eat everything immediately and on-site.
However, since many Chinese people do not have cars, bringing home this amount of food, especially drinks, is a challenge in itself.
One player reports that he ate part of it in the store and somehow took the rest home. There, he could enjoy the chicken for the entire day and relish his mount.
Will the black Chocobo also come to Germany? By now, players from Japan, the USA, and China have managed to snag the mount through various actions. Thus, the likelihood is high that we will also receive the black Chocobo sooner or later.
When and how exactly this will happen is not yet known. In the last event, players had to collect 24 codes from Dr. Pepper cans to receive the Cumulus cloud and other items. We can be excited about what it will be this time.
What do you think of the chicken raid chocobo challenge? Would you consume the menu alone, or would the Pepsi and the mushroom burger eventually take you down?
All images of the chicken meals come from a Reddit post.
Update 0.149.0 is available in Pokémon GO and brings numerous new features. However, an important trick has also been removed. We show you the highlights of the latest update.
When will the update arrive? Currently, it is being rolled out. Some Android users can already use it. iOS users will have to wait a little longer. By the end of the week, the update should be available for download everywhere.
There are also some minor updates in PvP and other areas. One change has left many Android players mourning, as the catching trick no longer works.
Update 0.149.0 – What’s Included?
What’s new in PvP: The mode of Trainer Battles is getting a proper overhaul. You will now need significantly more skill and accuracy when using the charge attack.

The second sequence shows the new feature in the PvP mode
This now spreads across the entire screen and you have to try to collect as many attack particles as possible. The more particles you have, the stronger the attack.
Egg bug fixed? The update addressed some text passages regarding hatching eggs. It is suspected that the egg bug has finally been fixed.
Previously, not all eggs that were hatched were displayed. Some animations were skipped. Only in the Pokémon box could one track what they had hatched.
Lots of new information about Team Rocket: Niantic has already announced in the patch notes in the app store that Team GO Rocket is coming. This is the name given to Team Rocket in Pokémon GO.
Is Team Rocket coming now? Since Niantic has officially announced it in the patch notes, the release should not take much longer. However, it will be earliest when all players can download the update.
This will likely take a few more days for iOS users. One could expect a release of Team Rocket over the weekend.
New search commands: There are now a total of 9 new search commands in Pokémon GO. You can now easily search for Pokémon with 100% IV:
Command
Result
0*
All Pokémon with IV between 0-49%
1*
All Pokémon with IV between 51.1-64.4%
2*
All Pokémon with IV between 66.7-80%
3*
All Pokémon with IV between 82.2-97.8%
4*
All Pokémon with 100% IV
male
All male Pokémon
female
All female Pokémon
shadow
All crypto Pokémon
purified
All purified Pokémon
The last two commands currently function with the English terms. However, these will certainly be switched to German soon. So there may still be some changes.
Pokémon can no longer be caught using the faster catching trick for Android.
This has now been removed. So this catching trick can no longer be performed.
Is there still a catching trick? The usual catching trick, which also works for iOS users, is still available in the game. So there are no changes here, and Android users can still catch their Pokémon faster.
How are the players reacting? The community is sad about this removal. After all, it allowed players to catch Pokémon even faster.
Many players had hoped that this was not a bug but would remain in the game permanently. This has now been disproved with the removal.
Nevertheless, there is still a catching trick, which is why the mood is not entirely down. So one has to dig up the old catching trick again to continue catching Pokémon quickly.
There will soon be an event with One Piece in Pokémon GO:
In Destiny 2, many exotic weapons from the predecessor can now be found. Bungie repeatedly brings back popular firearms from part 1. But which weapons exotics are still missing? Is almost everything really back?
What is the deal with the returnees? In Destiny 2, the entire arsenal of Guardians was destroyed during the assault on the old tower, or so Bungie justified the hard reset at release. Guardians could not keep their gear from part 1 in the successor to Destiny.
Although some fans are undeniably happy about the return of an old love like Dorn or SUROS Regime, there is also significant criticism. It is said that almost everything is back, so one might as well play Destiny 1. The word “recycling” comes up repeatedly.
The Dorn
But which weapon exotics are still missing from the first part? Is almost everything really back? Which ones would you like to see in the game? We take a closer look at the remaining exotic arsenal from Destiny 1.
[toc]
These exotic primary weapons from Destiny are still missing in Destiny 2
Necrochasm: This is an auto rifle closely connected to the Hive. Some fans therefore consider it very likely that this weapon could possibly return with the Shadowkeep expansion this autumn.
Vex Mythoclast: An iconic fusion rifle from the Vault of Glass with a unique firing mode that completely turned around PvP in Destiny 1 for a while. This weapon exotic is definitely one of the biggest fan favorites. A return would therefore be quite conceivable.
Khvostov 7G-0X: The exotic version of the very first weapon that your Guardian got their hands on in Destiny. However, this auto rifle was never particularly popular with fans. Therefore, a return is not considered likely.
Zhalo Supercell: A very popular auto rifle that could chain lightning between enemies. However, this weapon is likely not to return, as the submachine gun Risky from Destiny 2 essentially already has the same effect.
Monte Carlo: This auto rifle is currently the only weapon that is considered a guaranteed return in the context of Shadowkeep. Keen fans spotted the weapon in the shown material for the upcoming autumn expansion.
Fabian Strategy: An exclusive Titan exotic and at the time one of the worst exotic weapons in the game.
The First Curse: A solid exotic hand cannon, of which Destiny 2 probably has enough by now.
Hawkmoon: There have already been various rumors about a potential return of this popular hand cannon. A leak suggested that Hawkmoon might return in Season 7, but no sign of the weapon is available yet.
Red Death: This popular pulse rifle is unlikely to return, as in a modified form this weapon already exists – in the form of the exotic hand cannon Crimson.
No Time to Explain: A cool pulse rifle with an intriguing quest and lore. However, it never really belonged to the major fan favorites. However, the weapon was apparently spotted in the material for Shadowkeep, so it could return.
Tlaloc: A scout rifle exclusive to the Warlock class, which was popular with many players.
Boolean Twin: A scout rifle that not many will really remember. This firearm was not particularly popular. Therefore, a return is probably not very likely.
Touch of Malice: This unique scout rifle is one of the greatest highlights and most popular exotic weapons of Destiny 1. Many fans have been calling for a return of this weapon ever since. Now some fans hope that with the return of Eris Morn in Shadowkeep, this wish might finally come true.
No Land Beyond: A niche weapon that is very popular among good snipers (the only one for the primary slot), with which one delivered duels for the most spectacular kills. Devrim Kay, the NPC in the EDZ, already uses this weapon in Destiny 2.
Universal Remote: This shotgun (the only one in the primary slot) was once considered a good choice for the primary slot, until it eventually vanished without a trace after some changes.
Exotic versions of raid weapons: In addition, there were some more exotic weapons in the primary slot, which were simply exotic versions of numerous legendary raid weapons like Vision of Confluence, Fatebringer, or Crota’s End. Thus, we will not list them explicitly here.
On the next page, we will continue with missing special weapons.
On a blog post on the official website for Rainbow Six Siege, Ubisoft continuously collects issues or requests from the community. A major obstacle that has existed since the launch has now also made it onto the list. The debris problem could finally be addressed in year 5, meaning 2020 – possibly.
What problem is it? Ubisoft collects on the official website for Rainbow Six Siege in a post issues or requests that particularly concern the community. This is meant to give players a point of contact for errors and bugs and provide a timeframe when developers will address the issues.
Among others, sound bugs or connection errors are on the list, but also that sights deviate by a few pixels from the center in some situations.
Also, an ancient problem that has been around since the launch has now made it onto the list: Debris occasionally gets stuck in windows or doors, which can lead to players having a completely different line of sight than their opponents.
Why is this even a problem? Effects like debris are calculated client-side in Rainbow Six Siege. The results are then specific to the player’s game client and not consistent across the whole server.
This can mean, for example, that a player’s view is blocked by a pile of debris while their opponent may have a clear line of sight.
When will this be fixed? Ubisoft has now included the problem in their collection – nearly four years after the release. However, this does not mean that players can expect a quick fix.
On the website, Ubisoft states that they potentially aim to resolve the issue for Year 5 Season 1. That would be in 2020.
We are currently in the design phase to determine how we want to tackle this issue. We are exploring and prototyping various options.
What do the players say about it? In the R6 subreddit, players can hardly believe that a fix for the debris problem has to wait so long or that it might only be expected in 2020. One player writes that the inconsistent debris is a massive disruption to gameplay and that Ubisoft probably hardly understands this issue.
Other players indicate that the problem with the debris has existed since the launch and they can hardly believe it might only be resolved in Year 5. Especially, since Ubisoft also relies on eSports with the title.
Patch 11 is currently being rolled out for Fallout 76 on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. The update aims to make the entry into the game easier. We summarize the highlights for you.
This is the patch: Today, on July 16, Fallout 76 went into maintenance around 4 PM. Patch 11 will be deployed, which will then be available for all players.
How long will the maintenance take? Typically, the work lasts only a few hours. By evening, you should be able to play again.
How big is the new patch? There are differences between consoles and PC:
Size on PC: 2.5 GB
Size on consoles: 5.5 GB
Fallout 76 – Patch Notes for Patch 11 from July 9 in English
Fallout 76 makes entry easier: Especially newcomers can look forward to Patch 11. Several adjustments have been made to facilitate entry:
All players below level 15 are less susceptible to diseases
All players below level 25 can fast travel cheaper
Some enemies have been made easier, especially in regions where many beginners are located
The challenges in the starting phase have been revised and now offer more rewards, which are especially important for the start
This especially appeals to players who joined Fallout 76 with the new Battle Royale and are still having problems with food.
Additionally, the items you collect are now clearer. You can directly see what recipes and mods you can use and what can be created from them. You can also see the attributes of legendary items directly in the trade, sale, and container menus.
A major wish of the community is fulfilled: The “large amounts” of junk will be adjusted with the new patch. Junk will only be broken down when you need it for crafting or repairs, not when you press the “Scrap All Junk” button. This has long been requested by players.
How the Power Armor is being revised: Patch 11 brings many revisions to the Power Armor. These will mainly involve changes that you will hardly notice.
This is intended to resolve many bugs and ensure that using this armor will now be smoother.
As a result, your equipped Power Armor may have landed in your inventory. So if you’re not wearing it anymore, check there.
What other changes were made? Bethesda has also made additional small adjustments. For example, several balancing changes were made in Nuclear Winter and weapons were changed.
In addition, there are various bug fixes, such as during the C.A.M.P. setup or with the shooting sounds. You can find all the exact changes in the patch notes on the Fallout website.
Have you heard about the invisible nuclear bomb in Fallout 76?
An ingenious player has recreated the moon landing in No Man’s Sky for the 50th anniversaryand has hit the mark within the community.We will tell you why that is.
What is this screenshot about? The user vaughanarama posted on Reddit of the space game No Man’s Sky a screenshot where he recreates the famous scene of the American moon landing from 1969. For this, he has gone together with his spaceship to a moon-like landscape and rebuilt the scene.
The thread on the topic quickly received over 2,545 upvotes (as of July 15, 16:58) and has thus become a real hit. In the subreddit of No Man’s Sky, posts with over 100 upvotes are already rather rare.
“One small step for man, but a …” History meets pop culture.
That’s why the screenshot is so special for the community: The enthusiasm for the action is closely linked to the gaming experience of No Man’s Sky. Players embark on an almost endless journey of discovery through a vast universe with their spaceship.
The planets, moons, fauna, flora, and environmental conditions are randomly generated by the game. First discoverers may permanently assign a name to celestial bodies and living beings.
The first moon landing has a symbolic character for No Man’s Sky. The journey into the unknown and the first steps on new terrain are integral to the gameplay of the space exploration simulation. The fact that such a historical scene can be re-experienced from the comfort of home after 50 years is surely also a highlight for space enthusiasts.
It is precisely this enthusiasm for exploring the infinite vastness of space that may have ensured that this screenshot is so well received in the No Man’s Sky community.
The planets in No Man’s Sky can exhibit such abstract structures.
Some players can of course hardly resist alluding to the theory of a staged moon landing in 1969.
For instance, bloodyblister isn’t quite sure if the screenshot wasn’t taken on the No Man’s Sky film studio planet.
By the way, this summer a massive update called Beyond will be released, which is supposed to expand No Man’s Sky with more multiplayer and social features.

Pokémon GO meets One Piece! A new event starts, where Pikachu wears a new hat and you can change your avatar.
What kind of event is this? This event comes from the cooperation between Pokémon GO and One Piece. They are committed to a reconstruction project in Japan and want to showcase this in Pokémon GO.
Appropriately, Pikachu will wear a new hat. One Piece fans will recognize this hat, as Monkey D. Luffy also wears this hat in the One Piece anime.
This is about the hat of Monkey D. Luffy
One Piece Event in Pokémon GO – All Information
When does the event start? The event starts on July 22. There is no exact time given yet. It will run for a week and end on July 29.
This is what Pikachu with a hat will look like
What bonuses are there? During the event period, there are only 2 small bonuses, which are mainly aimed at fans of the series:
Pikachu with a One Piece straw hat appears more frequently in the wild
Your avatar can receive matching accessories in the in-game shop
Your avatar can wear the hat as well
Where does the information come from? The Japanese website of One Piece reported about this first. Afterwards, the Japanese site of Pokémon GO also shared such a report.
Will there be Shiny Pikachu? Nothing is known about that yet. However, it is certainly possible, as the last event Pikachu have all appeared as Shiny.
However, there were also some Pikachu with hats that could not be caught as Shiny. This includes, for example, the Pikachu with straw hat from last summer. So there is no guarantee for the Shiny.
This is also happening in Japan: As part of the event, there will also be special PokéStops in One Piece design in the Kumamoto prefecture in Japan. However, these will not affect us German players.
Are you excited about the new event Pikachu or are you already fearing the longer transfers with the monster?

The channel will be streaming 24/7 until the First Kill is achieved. This can take several days or even weeks, depending on the progress of the individual guilds. In the last race, it took more than 300 attempts just to finally defeat Jaina.
The last race was exciting – and took a long time.
The starting signal will be given this afternoon (July 16th) at 3:00 PM. Then there will be a bit of preliminaries before the servers in America go online again. The Americans have earlier access to the new raid due to time differences and other maintenance times.
Are you excited about the “World First race”? Which guild are you betting on? Will you follow the race or just wait for the winner?
One of the biggest challenges in Teamfight Tactics is the transition from early to late game. Sometimes you even need to completely change your team for that. Since that is difficult, we want to help you with this step.
Why is the transition to late game so crucial? In Teamfight Tactics, there are many combos that are particularly strong at the beginning of the game.
Three Nobles, four Knights, or two Wild Champions can grant you early winning streaks. But Noble Champions like Vayne or Fiora are generally not suitable for the late game; they decline too much, even at level 3.
A switch to a strong combo is necessary, but this change is not easy. You are essentially working on two fronts simultaneously, the units on the field and those in the bank.
In this guide, we want to share tips and tricks with you on how to make the transition easier. If you want to get familiar with the game first, you can find an introductory guide on MeinMMO.
Everything starts with a clear plan
Am I planning already in the early game? In the first rounds of the game, it usually doesn’t determine how your team looks in the late game. There you can first choose good champions and try to win the initial rounds.
In the mid game, during stage 3, a plan should gradually crystallize about where to go. Influences on your plans include:
How do I build my team? If you’ve already collected Sorcerers, Elemental Mages, Assassins, or Ninjas, then it can certainly be useful to follow that call and build your team in that direction.
More important than the champions, however, are the items you have found. A team of Ice Chosen and Archers makes little sense if you haven’t found a Recursion Bow and Giant Swords to enhance your Archers.
Lastly, you can also look around on the other boards. It is useful to know what other players are building to counter the combos or to know which champions are still abundant in the pool.
How to transition into the late game
How do I start the transition? If you have a strong combo in the early game, then you try to keep it on the field for as long as possible while already working on the late game champions in the background.
The switch should then be made when your late game combo is somewhat survivable. If your goal is to get six Sorcerers on the field but you only have four, it might be smarter to wait and let your previous champions continue fighting.
But once you have all six Sorcerers, they should all get on the field. Your bonus is extremely strong.
What do I do with the bank? If you hold on to the early game combo for too long, you may have a bank – and thus a space problem. It is advisable not to upgrade the 1- and 2-Gold units to level 3 and therefore not to clutter the bank with Garens, Vaynes, or other units.
Instead, focus on collecting your late game champions and upgrade them to level 2 if necessary. Here, however, you should not begin collecting for level 3 yet.
Aren’t level 3 champions stronger? Level 3 units are strong, but especially 1- and 2-Gold champions decline just as strongly. Many 4- and 5-Gold champions are significantly stronger at level 1 or 2 due to their abilities.
Gnar, Cho’Gath, or Yasuo can decide games even without major synergies. A level 2 Draven usually deals significantly more damage than a level 3 Vayne or Tristana. The list can continue indefinitely.
Don’t cling too much to your units at the beginning; instead, focus on the late game from mid game onwards.
Combos for the late game
Which combos are best for the late game? In the late game, various combos have proven to be extremely effective. From the setup, they are:
6 Sorcerers and 1 Ninja
3 Elemental Mages, 4 Ninjas, and Pyke
6 Assassins and 4 Ninjas
6 Ice Chosen and 4 Archers
4 Wilds, 3 Shapeshifters, and Draven
We will introduce them to you in more detail in a separate post soon. There, we will go into the exact setup, the items, and the strengths and weaknesses of these combos.
