Will we be able to play Destiny 2 and ESO on the Xbox Scarlett?

Micha Deckert Micha Deckert Reading time 3 minutes

At the E3 2019, the Xbox Project Scarlett was announced for Christmas 2020. But what about the games? Will we have to part with our current favorite games?

What is it about? At Microsoft’s presentation at E3, the new generation of Xbox was officially introduced. The upcoming console is currently being developed under the name “Project Scarlett”.

New games for the Xbox Scarlett have been hardly announced. Only Halo Infinite was confirmed as a launch title at the fair. But what about our current favorite games, such as Destiny 2, The Division 2, or The Elder Scrolls Online?

Will you be able to play Xbox One games like Destiny 2 and ESO? Yes. Microsoft stated that they are working to bring “every previous game” to the Xbox Scarlett.

This means every game that is currently playable on the Xbox One, including over 600 backward-compatible games from previous generations Xbox and Xbox 360. The Xbox Scarlett should be able to play games from four Xbox generations.

However, it is still unknown whether these games will run or look better on the new console. Some games on Xbox One are “Xbox One Enhanced” and have been graphically overhauled.

Jason Ronald from the Xbox platform team mentioned in an Interview with IGN:

The team is shifting its focus to ensure that all Xbox One games are playable on future hardware. This includes all Xbox 360 and original Xbox games that are currently available on Xbox One.

Ronald means that Microsoft added its last backward-compatible Xbox and Xbox 360 games to Xbox One this week. No further older games will follow, but the team is focusing on getting current games to work on the upcoming console.

Recently, Rainbow Six Brand Director Alexandre Remy mentioned that the Ubisoft shooter is also to be made playable on the new generation consoles. They are currently speaking with Sony and Microsoft to bring Rainbow Six Siege to PS5 and Xbox Scarlett.

Rainbow Six Siege
Rainbow Six Siege is also expected to come to the new console generation, according to Ubisoft.

What is backward compatibility? Backward compatibility or backwards compatibility means that older software can run on newer hardware. In the case of Xbox One, these are games from the earlier generations Original Xbox and Xbox 360.

However, this does not mean that all older games run on the Xbox One. More and more games are regularly added to the catalog. If you own one of these games, you can insert the disc, or if you own the game digitally, download it from the store and install it on your console at no additional cost.

Your game saves (if you had cloud save activated on Xbox 360), addons, and achievements from the older game will be transferred to the Xbox One.

Halo Infinite was confirmed as a launch title for the Xbox Project Scarlett.

What is known about Scarlett? According to Microsoft’s presentation at E3 2019, the upcoming Xbox Scarlett is said to be four times as powerful as the current generation Xbox One. The console is expected to have the following features:

  • Up to 120 FPS
  • Ray Tracing
  • Latest Zen 2 and Navi technology
  • New SSD generation that is used as virtual RAM

We have more information about the console in our article on E3.

PS5 vs Xbox Scarlett: The upcoming PlayStation 5 will also offer backward compatibility. Sony has not focused on this feature in its consoles so far and has rather released selected games in a remastered version for newer consoles.

The next console, whose name is not yet known and which we call PS5, is supposed to be backward compatible with the PS4. Further information about PlayStation 5 can be found in this post.

Fortnite gets a new weapon – Players already find it dumb

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time 2 minutes

In Fortnite: Battle Royale comes with the next patch a new weapon, the Proximity Grenade Launcher. There are now also leaks of the values, but players are not very excited.

What is the new weapon? The Proximity Grenade Launcher is a new weapon that is supposed to appear in Fortnite soon. Dataminers have already found out what values this weapon will have:

  • Rarity: Epic and Legendary
  • Damage: 67/70
  • Magazine: 2
  • Fire Rate: 0.65
  • Reload Time: 2.8
  • Range: 788/825

The damage of the weapon actually does not decrease when you are further away. It is always the same, regardless of the distance to the target.

fortnite-annäherungsgranatwerfer-stats

It is also suspected that the grenades either explode upon impact or near enemies, which would make cover quite useless.

Players do not want another explosive weapon

This is how the community reacts: On Reddit, reactions to the new weapon were rather subdued. Players are currently concerned about the meta, which according to some fans is developing again into a close-combat and “spray” meta.

So a playstyle in which you spray as many shots as possible at close range (spray). Therefore, the comments on Reddit are quite negative:

  • “I can already smell the salt.”
  • “I can see ahead how everyone will be outraged about how OP this weapon will be and that Epic is once again bringing an explosive weapon instead of fixing the messed-up loot pool!”
fortnite-neue-waffe-01

Furthermore, many players do not need another explosive weapon and are now afraid that the grenade launcher will be removed from the game. The new grenade launcher could render it obsolete since the new weapon shoots faster and may require less skill to use. The grenades from the regular launcher only explode after some time.

  • “The grenade launcher is already practically redundant. Hardly anyone uses it anymore.”

Other players hope that the new grenade launcher will kick the Boom Bow out of the game. It is also not particularly popular with players, and very few enjoy using it.

  • “I hope it takes out the Boom Bow, but I have my doubts.”
  • “Hopefully it replaces the Boom Bow, we have enough explosive weapons in the game!”

When will the Proximity Grenade Launcher be released? The new weapon is expected to be added to the game in the next patch. This will likely be the case by June 13, 2019.

Destiny 2: Secret area discovered on Io – Are you hunting a new Exotic here soon?

Sven Galitzki Sven Galitzki Reading time 3 minutes

Shortly after the beginning of Season 7, players in Destiny 2 discovered a new secret area that is not yet regularly accessible. Fans are now wondering what this place is about.

This area is about: While scouring the area “The Infinite Forest” on Io (far in the south or bottom of the map), some clever Guardians stumbled upon a completely new area. This apparently came into play only with the last major Update 2.5.0.1, which heralded the Season 7 of Destiny 2.

This new area is still isolated from the regular game world and cannot be entered in the usual way. Players have therefore glitched themselves in there for research purposes.

What is hidden in this area? After accessing the area, the players set out to extensively explore this new zone.

This is a massive cave complex characterized by Vex architecture, traces of the Taken, mysterious structures, and a gigantic spherical structure.

Some static enemy and Guardian models were also found in there, which apparently serve as spawn points for enemies and Guardians when this area goes live.

This is what the fans are currently discussing: The find is currently causing various debates within the community. Guardians are wondering what this new area could be about.

The prevailing opinion, however, is that it is likely to be a new dungeon-like mission in the style of Whisper of the Worm or The Zero Hour for the Perfected Outbreak, which will go live at some point during Season 7. It is presumed that players will be hunting a new Exotic there, according to fans’ speculation.

Which weapons are possible? Theoretically, it could include the Exotic rocket launcher Truth or the exotic hand cannon Rose. Both weapon Exotics are confirmed for Season 7.

However, according to data mining, none of these two weapons is tied to a mission of this kind – unless all data is not yet in the game, the data miners are mistaken, or they simply haven’t found everything in this context yet.

The most likely reward for this mission currently is considered to be the exotic Pulse Rifle Bad Juju. This is also expected to return this season. Initial data related to this weapon has already been found in the game – but nothing regarding the quest. However, fans believe it is likely that this weapon could be hidden behind such a mission.

While it is still speculated that Hawkmoon might also return this season, so far, no hints have been found for this weapon apart from the leak from AnonTheNine. We will keep you updated as soon as there is a new development on this.

What do you think? What is this new area about? Do you also believe there will be a new mission that brings back another Exotic as a reward?

What does the game look like? You can also watch how Remnant looks and how it plays by looking at the E3 trailer. It strongly resembles Hellgate: London.

Nintendo silences E3 leaker with a temporary injunction

Andreas Bertits Andreas Bertits Reading time 2 minutes

The Twitter user Sabi leaked many details about new games before the E3 press conferences. Now he received a message from Nintendo’s lawyers.

Who is Sabi? The user “Sabi” spread many details about the games that were showcased before the E3 press conferences of Microsoft, Bethesda, Ubisoft, and Square Enix via Twitter.

These included details about the multiplayer mode of Doom Eternal and the features of the Xbox Scarlett. The leaked details turned out to be correct.

In the past months, Sabi mentioned that he and a few others would learn everything about the games before the conferences, including those from Nintendo. However, he said he would probably only receive the information on Monday.

Nintendo threatens a leaker

What happened now? However, there have been no leaks regarding Nintendo’s press conference so far. There is a specific reason for that. As Sabi explains, he received a call from a mysterious person. They stated that Nintendo became aware of him and would initiate legal action if information about the E3 press conference was leaked.

An email followed with the name of a lawyer who, according to research, has indeed worked for Nintendo before. Ultimately, Sabi agreed not to leak anything further.

What did Nintendo say? The email stated the following:

“As previously mentioned, Nintendo is aware of your online activities, including on Twitter and Discord, regarding the disclosure of confidential information about Nintendo’s games. It is also known that you intend to share such information ahead of E3.” 

Furthermore, it continued: “Nintendo considers your activities to be an abuse of its trade secrets. If you continue to disclose such information or pursue your plans regarding E3 information, Nintendo will consider all legal options, including initiating court proceedings against you.”

Leaker feels creeped out

Sabi is surprised: Sabi actually expected that someone from the other companies would contact him, as he had indeed disclosed information from Bethesda and Microsoft beforehand.

Moreover, he found it “creepy” that he could be tracked down since he does not currently live in the country where he is a citizen. Somehow, Nintendo got hold of his private number.

What about the leaks? Sabi mentioned that his source, whose name he obviously did not want to reveal and whom he has only known for a few weeks, will surely find another way to leak the information about Nintendo’s E3 press conference. If not through Sabi, then through someone else.

When is the Nintendo conference taking place? Nintendo will present the game lineup at the E3 tonight at 6 PM.

The trailer for Marvel Avengers looks great, only the heroes cause laughter

Noah Struthoff Noah Struthoff Reading time 2 minutes

At E3 2019, the new game Marvel’s Avengers was officially presented. The trailer is well-received, but one detail causes laughter among viewers.

What kind of game is it? Marvel Avengers is set to release in May 2020 for PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Google Stadia. Up to 5 players can play together in multiplayer mode.

What bothers the fans? A trailer was also shown at E3. It is generally well-received, but fans are somewhat bothered by the characters, as they do not look like the heroes from the movies.

This is how Marvel Avengers is received by fans

This is the trailer: The trailer shown by Square Enix at E3 lasts over 3 minutes. It showcases the rough storyline of the game. You can also recognize the Avengers that will play a role in the game.

How are fans reacting to the trailer? Overall, the trailer is positively received. On YouTube, the video has already garnered over 132,000 thumbs up, while only 6,000 thumbs down.

Even in our MeinMMO community, the trailer is well-received. “Corbenian” writes about the trailer: “This could be the first Avengers game that really turns out well. Let’s see how it ends up and how it plays. ”

“DerFrek” responds: “Well, I’m looking forward to seeing more and I will definitely test it.”

This is causing laughter: However, the positive comments are almost overshadowed as there is also a lot of mockery. People are laughing at the characters who do not resemble the Avengers from the movies at all. Their faces look rather bad, which is being commented on Reddit and Twitter with funny sayings and memes.

Another point of criticism for many players is that a fan favorite, Hawkeye, is missing. It is not known whether Hawkeye will come at a later time.

This is also mocked. A Twitter user suspects that the characters who do not remind of the Avengers are responsible for Hawkeye’s absence:

Conan Chop Chop was too good to just be an April Fool’s joke – it’s really coming

Benedict Grothaus Benedict Grothaus Reading time 2 minutes

At E3 2019, Conan Exiles developer Funcom announced a new game: Conan Chop Chop. This has been known since April, but it was actually an April Fools’ joke that is now really happening.

What is Conan Chop Chop? On April 1, 2019, Funcom announced Conan Chop Chop, a game that wanted to poke fun at current gaming trends.

Funcom was quite exaggerated at the time. They claimed there would be billions of dungeons available and a Battle Royale with 2000 players would be implemented. Furthermore, Conan Chop Chop was supposed to run in 12K, 360° Virtual Reality.

Many fans and the press found the game and the idea so well-developed that they wished it was not just an April Fools’ joke. Funcom listened and introduced Conan Chop Chop at the PCGamer press conference.

What Conan Chop Chop Offers

What are the features? The new trailer we included above already shows a bit of the “new” gameplay, which differs from the April version. The graphics have not changed, it remains a 2D adventure roughly in the “Legend of Zelda” style.

On the official website, you can find more information about the features. Thus, Conan Chop Chop offers:

  • 1-4 player co-op
  • a selection of well-known gods from the Conan universe
  • Dangerous bosses like sandworms, the frost giant from Vanaheim, and Thoth-Amon himself
  • A quest system
  • Randomly generated dungeons

The combat system currently seems rather simple, but offers customization options for equipment, skills, and combos. This strongly resembles a hack & slash.

New survival MMO fascinates with art style and concept, launching soon on Steam

Andreas Bertits Andreas Bertits Reading time 2 minutes

Indie developer Donkey Crew presented a new gameplay trailer for the survival MMO Last Oasis at E3 and announced the release date for the Early Access version.

What is Last Oasis? It is a survival MMO where you flee from the sun. In the future, our Earth no longer rotates, resulting in only a small habitable zone remaining. Where the sun shines, no life can exist anymore.

The habitable zone of our once blue planet is slowly changing. The last surviving humans have become nomads, fleeing from the sun with wooden vehicles called Walkers, while gathering as many resources as possible along the way.

Clans wage wars with moving fortresses against each other to harvest the few remaining resources. What that looks like is shown in the new gameplay trailer from E3:

Link to the YouTube content

A Race Against the Sun

How does Last Oasis play? It is a survival game where PvP is important. You are either on foot or building your own Walker. These can even become something like moving fortresses from which clans operate. At oases, you gather resources to survive and to keep upgrading your Walker. Other players do the same, which leads to frequent skirmishes. Walkers collide with each other.

You must always keep an eye on the sun because the “death zone” is approaching relentlessly, so you should not linger too long in one place, as the heat will kill you. Thus, a constant “moving” war over the last resources on Earth ensues.

What does this remind you of? The concept of moving cities is somewhat reminiscent of Philip Reeve’s “Mortal Engines” book series. The first book was adapted into a film directed by Peter Jackson in 2018.

When can you play? The survival MMO Last Oasis will enter Early Access on September 3rd on Steam.

The price of the game has not yet been announced.

The Team Has Learned from Mistakes

Why are players currently a bit skeptical? There is a noticeable skepticism in the community. This is despite Last Oasis looking very good and generally being well received by players.

The problem is that the developers worked on a battle game called Of Kings and Men (OKAM) about two years ago. The title was even available on Steam during Early Access. It is no longer available, and supporters feel cheated.

However, the developers explain that they ceded the rights to the game to another company which promised them financial support in developing OKAM. But essentially, the team worked in vain. Eventually, work was halted, damaging the studio’s reputation.

Now, the team aims to prove with Last Oasis that they are not to blame for the troubles surrounding OKAM and can release a good game.

How the Game of Thrones author George R. R. Martin is involved in Elden Ring

Tarek Zehrer Tarek Zehrer Reading time 3 minutes

How is the fantasy author involved in the development of the new RPG from the Dark Souls creators? The head of FromSoftware, Hidetaka Miyazaki, has now explained this in more detail in an interview.

This is what the interview was about: In the interview, Hidetaka Miyazaki talked about the development of Elden Ring. He explained what kind of game Elden Ring will be and since when it has been in development.

He also spoke about the role of George R. R. Martin, who is involved in the development of the game. Martin is mainly known for his book series “A Song of Ice and Fire,” which the series Game of Thrones is based on.

The Mythos of Elden Ring

Who is Hidetaka Miyazaki? He is the president of FromSoftware. Miyazaki is known as the creative mind behind popular games like Demon’s Souls, the Dark Souls series (1 and 3), Bloodborne, or Sekiro.

All of these games stand for brilliant level design, enigmatic stories, great battles, and a tough difficulty level. Now, Elden Ring will be the next big title from Miyazaki.

This is one of the only two artworks that have been published so far

How did the collaboration come about? Miyazaki is himself a big fan of George R. R. Martin. Thus, the idea came from him. However, he initially did not expect a collaboration.

That I am such a big fan of Mr. Martin led to our Executive Business Director Eiichi Nakajima contacting him, expecting that we would receive a rejection.

Finally, there was a conversation between Martin and Miyazaki, which Hidetaka himself describes as “incredible fun and stimulating.” This encouraged him to want to work with Martin, which ultimately happened.

Also, regarding the themes that Miyazaki had planned for the game, it seems they quickly found common ground. Thus, the work began.

The first scenes from the trailer show dark fantasy

This role was played by the Game of Thrones author: George R. R. Martin was mainly involved in creating “the mythos for the game world itself.”

This mythos was full of interesting characters and dramas with an abundance of mystical and mysterious elements. It was a wonderful source of inspiration for me and the development team.

Miyazaki himself can sometimes hardly contain his excitement and hopes that others will also enjoy it. But what else do we know so far about Elden Ring?

Elden Ring is once again heading towards Dark Fantasy

This is what we know so far about Elden Ring: So far, there is hardly any solid information.

  • It will be an action RPG with a dark fantasy setting
  • As in previous games, the character will be controlled from a third-person perspective
  • The difficulty level will also be challenging again
  • However, the focus will be on the RPG elements
  • There will be magic and all sorts of weapons and equipment
  • Once again, you can also create your own character

In comparison to Dark Souls, Elden Ring is expected to offer more freedom in gameplay. Miyazaki also emphasizes the significantly larger game world:

[…], I would say the biggest difference is that it will be open world. Therefore, the scale, narrative, as well as depth and freedom of exploration have dramatically expanded. It is undoubtedly our largest title so far, in terms of pure scope.

What can you expect from the game world? You will implement your own version of the “open world” idea. It will be a world full of threats, but also of many places that can be discovered.

There will also be large, multi-part “castles” that want to be explored. There is no further information on this yet. However, previous leaks mentioned a Nordic or Celtic-inspired setting.

You can find the complete interview on the official Xbox page.

Here you can also find the 1st trailer for Elden Ring, which was presented at E3 2019:

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 3 minutes

In GTA Online the time trial Vinewood Bowl is active. You can earn 102,000 GTA Dollars in less than 3 minutes. We show you how to easily make the money.

How do you win the money? To participate in the race, drive to the amphitheater Vinewood Bowl on the public map. You can recognize the starting point by the stopwatch on the world map.

The race starts there, leading you to the Solar Collections Dock. If you arrive there under the required time of 2:58.8 minutes, you will receive 102,000 GTA Dollars in your account.

This is how you win the race Vinewood Bowl in GTA Online

The course of the track: This track is a bit more complicated than other time trials, which is why you should first take a close look at the course. There are two important points that we will mark with exclamation marks on the map.

At the first exclamation mark, you leave the road and continue on the tracks from there. At the second exclamation mark, which should be slightly above the shown map section, you leave the tracks.

GTA Online Vinewood Bowl track

This is how the drive goes: After the start, stay on the marked main road. At the first exclamation mark, you leave the road to the left, accelerate up a small hill, and then land on the tracks.

You follow the tracks over a bridge, through a tunnel. Shortly after the tunnel, you again leave the tracks on the left side. There is a conspicuous stone that you jump over and then land on the premises of a company.

Shortly after the tunnel, you leave the tracks over this stone

You then leave the premises through a gap as shown in the image here:

Can you repeat the race? Yes, you can drive the race as often as you want. However, you only receive the 102,000 GTA Dollars once a week. After that, this race only brings a consolation prize of $2,000 to $4,000.

GTA 5 Online Vinewood Bowl won
Update: Here you see an outdated credit. In GTA Online there is now at least 100,000 dollars for time trials.

Which vehicles should you use? Motorcycles are recommended here that can handle the off-road sections of the track well. However, we were also successful with the Shotaro, albeit barely.

Watch Dogs 3 is coming with multiplayer: co-op for 4 players, but probably not for everything

Andreas Bertits Andreas Bertits Reading time 2 minutes

At E3, Ubisoft presented the open-world action game Watch Dogs Legion. Players are now wondering if there will be a multiplayer mode, as nothing has been said about it yet. However, fans can be excited: Watch Dogs 3 will feature a co-op mode for up to 4 players.

What is Watch Dogs Legion? The latest installment in the open-world action game series transports you to near-future London. England has become a surveillance state after Brexit, and the underground organization DedSec is trying to spark a revolution. To do this, as many citizens as possible need to be mobilized.

Play as Anyone

What makes the game special? You do not play as a predetermined character, but can recruit any NPC in the city and play as them. Each person has unique abilities that you need to utilize in missions.

If a character dies, they are really dead. You will need to find a “replacement”.

There is Multiplayer

What about multiplayer? The two predecessors offered an asynchronous multiplayer mode, where players could occasionally appear at specific locations. You would then either have to fight them or hack them.

No information about a multiplayer mode for Watch Dogs Legion was discussed during the E3 presentation. However, information has now appeared in the Uplay store that you can take your team into the online mode and cooperatively face challenges with three other friends.

Watch Dogs Online Mode will be Expanded

It’s possible to explore the world together and master co-op missions as well as endgame content. The online mode is expected to be regularly expanded with new content such as additional modes and events.

This suggests that you will complete the story alone in single-player and can additionally utilize an online mode. It does not seem like you will be able to experience the story cooperatively.

But a final confirmation is still pending.

What else was said about the online mode? Creative Director Clint Hocking explained during E3 that teamwork is important. He did not want to reveal if there would be additional modes beside the 4-player co-op mode at release. However, it is possible that you can show each other’s teams to determine which player has recruited which NPCs.

When does Watch Dogs Legion? Ubisoft will release the new action game on March 6, 2020.

How Elder Scrolls Blades became popular with fans

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time 2 minutes

At E3 2019, a big new update for the mobile MMO The Elder Scrolls Blades was announced. The patch is already online and fans love it.

What’s in the patch? The Elder Scrolls Blades, Bethesda’s mobile MMO with great graphics, received its first major update at E3 2019. In it, you get among other things:

  • A new questline featuring a dragon that wreaks havoc
  • New jewelry
  • Solo arena battles
  • New jobs
  • Leveling up beyond level 50 to level 100 (However, you won’t receive any attributes or skill points after level 50).

Additionally, there were a number of bug fixes and minor adjustments.

„Finally a studio that listens to feedback“

This is how the changes are received by fans: Usually, after updates, there is a lot of complaining in the community of any game. And especially The Elder Scrolls Blades had some dissatisfied players who were unhappy with the rocky launch of the game and some design decisions.

Elder Scrolls Blades Dragons
This is how the new update was presented at E3 2019.

However, the new update seems to reconcile many players on Reddit and address issues that had been problematic:

  • Okay, it looks like you fixed everything that was wrong with the game… and then some! Damn good job, Bethesda! I was already surprised by what you packed into a mobile game and now I’m even more surprised at how you’re pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in mobile games.”
  • Such a huge update! Thank you, Bethesda!”
  • “Wow, this is the first time a studio resolves its problems as suggested in the feedback!”
  • “Finally, there’s action with dragons!”

What isn’t going over so well? In fact, most players are overall happy with the update. But one thing seems to be causing issues. Those wanting to enter the “Abyss” to acquire fat loot are likely to experience many game crashes.

And this, despite the Abyss having received some bug fixes and allowing for fewer exploits. It seems that something got accidentally broken in the patch.

  • “The Abyss crashes more often than I can play it!”
  • “Almost every time I enter the Abyss, the game crashes!”
  • “Hopefully, a follow-up update will come soon”

Still, players are not letting the joy be taken away from them and are optimistic that Bethesda will close this gap soon as well.

Epic takes the game to the new hit trend: Auto Chess Mobile on PC

Alexander Leitsch Alexander Leitsch Reading time 2 minutes

The Chinese company Drodo Studios, which published the mod and mobile version of Auto Chess, is now bringing the game back to PC. It will be available in the Epic Store and will compete with Valve and Riot Games.

Why is the mobile version returning to PC? Originally, Auto Chess was released as a mod for Dota 2 and was thus only playable on PC. However, the Chinese developer created its own version for smartphones and dispensed with the licenses from Dota.

Auto Chess Mobile has become so good that Drodo Studios apparently also wants to return to PC. Their standalone Auto Chess is set to be exclusively released in the Epic Store following an announcement at E3.

The goal of the developers is that anyone, regardless of the device, can play Auto Chess. The only differences should be in the engine. The PC version runs on Unreal Engine 4, while the mobile version uses Unity.

How is Valve responding? The company behind Dota 2 has now recognized the hype and wants to work on Auto Chess themselves. In May, they announced their own version, which will likely be unveiled in August.

But not only Valve is interested in the game mods.

Auto Chess is very successful, even Riot Games is getting involved

Who else is interested in Auto Chess? The gameplay of Auto Chess captivates many players, especially those who enjoy tactical games with a good ranking system.

One of the most successful games in the world, League of Legends, is now also getting its own Auto Chess version. The game mode will be called “Tactical Teamfight” and was presented in detail yesterday:

How well is the Mod Auto Chess performing? Almost 9 million users have subscribed to the Dota 2 mod in the Steam library. Auto Chess is also becoming increasingly popular on Twitch.

Just on May 28, around 21,000 new Twitch users followed the game category, as Sullygnomes shows. This is by far the highest number of new followers for Auto Chess.

At its peak, 60,338 others watched Auto Chess being played on May 21.

What is the future of the Dota 2 Mod? The future of the mod for Dota 2 is currently unknown. However, several updates have already been released in June, which included new characters, balance adjustments, UI modifications, and even special events.

According to Valve’s own statement, the discussions with Drodo Studios in the past were always positive. Nevertheless, it was agreed that they would work separately on projects.

Many games are now being released exclusively for the Epic Store. What are the chances in the battle against Steam?

Destiny 2: The new era began with a phrase against the Epic Store

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 4 minutes

Last week we saw the new era of Destiny 2. But much more striking was the new era of Bungie. They broke with old structures and first started with a little troll of the community, at the expense of Epic.

So they thought it would go: When the live stream for Destiny 2 Shadowkeep started on Thursday, fans actually expected Community Manager DeeJ to appear and then greet two developers from the second row on the couch in the studio.

After all, Shadowkeep was “only” a new expansion, maybe the size of a Rise of Iron from 2016, a stopgap because they have to bridge a year until Destiny 3 comes with the new consoles PlayStation 5 and Xbox Scarlett.

With the two developers, DeeJ would chat a bit awkwardly and show a few films. That’s how fans have been used to it since 2014.

Bungie’s streams were professionally made, in a studio, and followed such a strict process, that you knew in advance what would come.

That’s how Destiny streams have been known for years.

So it really was: But this time, the two top guys from Bungie, Luke Smith and Mark Noseworthy, appeared in good spirits. The two have been considered the A-Team of Destiny since “The Taken King,” even though they didn’t hit the mark with Destiny 2 and hadn’t been seen for almost a year and a half.

Noseworthy was not interrupted much by this and announced the switch from Destiny 2 PC to Steam, while Smith apparently seemed quite pleased with himself and grinned.

That’s probably just a small thing, but the clip has now over 115,000 views and is apparently going down really well with the fans.

A lot is changing, some things remain

That was different: It seems that Bungie has taken the criticism of the past years to heart and changed a lot about the presentation of the stream, although some things have also remained the same.

Different is:

  • the location – from the sterile studio to an “improvised outdoors”, where you feel: They really work there
  • the overall mood: Clearly more relaxed and loose, also a bit cheekier and self-ironic
  • that they invite Datto, an “external moderator”, who also asks uncomfortable questions about Destiny 2
  • that they show “more employees” and make it clear how many are working on Destiny 2
  • the language code, instead of “hobby”, now they openly say “MMO” – what has always been meant
Destiny-2-Datto
Datto (right) is probably the most well-known Destiny YouTuber. He was there as a guest moderator and interviewed the developers at Bungie.

That has remained the same:

  • Bungie is still very frugal with information and only releases piecemeal what they have to say – Datto’s questions fell on deaf ears
  • the clichés have remained, one has their “fate” in their own hands – and “that’s a conversation we’ll have another day”
  • The ViDoc has hardly changed, everything still looks awesome – although this time it was more about the workplaces of the developers. Apparently, they want to convey more the image of how much work goes into the game

But the “new era” of Destiny 2 was clearly visible in the stream. More clearly than many players and even we at MeinMMO had expected before.

Both improvised a dialogue while standing, while in the background you could see other people. Somehow everything seemed strange, improvised, different. Not at all like Bungie.

https://twitter.com/thislukesmith/status/1136682804979200000
The cheat sheet from Luke Smith, which lay between the two, caught many people’s attention.

That was the saying with Epic: At one point, both made it clear that they would need a new partner for the PC now that the deal with Activision is off the table and they have to get out of Battle.net.

Luke Smith then said: “Someone said we need an epic partner.” He was clearly alluding to the Epic Games Store, which is not exactly popular among many fans.

Noseworthy was not interrupted much by this and announced the switch from Destiny 2 PC to Steam, while Smith apparently seemed quite pleased with himself and grinned.

Pokémon GO: New information about the GO Fest in Chicago and what it means for us

Noah Struthoff Noah Struthoff Reading time 3 minutes

The big GO Fest of Pokémon GO starts in Chicago on Thursday. Now there is information about the layout, the entry and the special trades. We will show you what is known and what is important for the Dortmund GO Fest.

When does the GO Fest start? It kicks off this Thursday, June 13, and runs all weekend until June 16.

Meanwhile, players on site will have the opportunity to catch rare Pokémon like Unown, Pachirisu, or Hippopotas. For players in Germany, it will also be interesting because Jirachi is likely to be released for the first time. Moreover, additional bonuses may await us.

GO Fest in Chicago – What has been published

What about the special trades? It has already been announced that players at GO Fests will be able to make multiple special trades in one day.

GO Fest text
What Niantic says about the trades

This has now been confirmed again, and at least in Chicago, players can make up to 5 special trades on the day they attend the GO Fest.

It can now be assumed that 5 special trades will also be possible in Dortmund. After all, previous information on the GO Fests has been very similar.

This is what players have already received: The medal awarded for participating in the GO Fest has already been given to players. This can be a good indication of whether the ticket purchase was successful because if so, one should already have such a medal.

This is what the medal for the GO Fest looks like. Source: Reddit

The medal for the Dortmund GO Fest has not yet been distributed. However, it can be assumed that this medal will also be distributed a bit earlier here.

This is what the layout shows: There is now a plan that shows the entire area in Chicago. There you can also see the different habitats that you can visit.

Similar habitats are also expected for Dortmund. If they are the same habitats, then many different Pokémon can be expected. Niantic itself mentions over 70 different Pokémon in Chicago. It could look similar in Dortmund.

Go Fest
This is what the layout for the GO Fest looks like

How does the entry process work? There will not be long waiting times in Chicago. Trainers will be automatically admitted on the day their ticket is valid.

The system is likely to work similarly in Dortmund, but the Westfalenpark in Dortmund is a closed park. You will certainly have to identify yourself as a trainer somewhere before you can enter the park. It may take a little longer here.

What else is there to discover? The GO Fest in Chicago has many other attractions to offer. There are:

  • A place to compete in PvP battles
  • A Pokémon Center where merchandise is available for purchase
  • Several autograph sessions with well-known YouTubers

Similar attractions will also be available for Dortmund. Several YouTubers have already confirmed that they will also be available for photos in Dortmund.

Maybe a missing Pokémon from Generation 4 will also appear there:

E3 2019: Some accuse Bethesda of having cheated during the applause

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

Some fans suspect that a spicy detail from the press conference of the E3 2019 by Bethesda was fake: The fans’ reaction was way too strong for what was shown.

At the E3 press conference by Bethesda, there were some new features, but also a lot of criticism.

Some critics even believe that one rather spicy thing during the presentation was simply “faked”: the reactions from the audience.

Image did not match the sound

What is being claimed? Reddit user Uesugi took a small clip from the Bethesda press conference that made him skeptical. After the presentation of “Orion”, there is long, sustained applause from the audience.

However, the camera scan over the crowd shows that a large part of them is sitting relatively quietly. You can watch the small clip here:

The incident is also hotly debated on Twitter. For example, one “Matt” says:

I am convinced that 80% of the audience is fake or that it is canned applause. Something just seems weird about that. I know people love Bethesda but… come on.

“Hype Guys in the Audience”

Placement of microphones in the audience: One theory is that microphones were deliberately placed among people in the audience who were instructed to clap extensively and too much, called “clappers”.

This makes it sound in the stream as if the whole crowd is applauding, even when in the video only a very small part of the audience seems to be really enthusiastic.

The people just had more fun than your grumpy asses

Players defend Bethesda: However, there are also some fans who see it differently and dismiss the criticisms as “conspiracy theory” or have logical explanations. Many viewers would have paid for admission and sacrificed their free time for it. They would rather get caught up in a hype than sit on a convention feeling dissatisfied and grumpy. User Itz_Jolly writes on Reddit:

I would probably choose to just have fun instead of being angry, even if Bethesda deserves a lot of anger. I’d rather cheer sarcastically than resort to booing.

Others find it only logical that a group claps particularly enthusiastically. After all, the audience also includes developers and family members who, of course, participate with more enthusiasm than skeptical fans.

What really is behind this matter is hard to prove. However, it is clear: For many viewers, the image and sound did not match, and the positive reaction of the fans to so many mobile games in a row certainly didn’t match either.

What is your opinion on this matter? Did Bethesda clearly manipulate the fans’ reactions? Or is it just an unfortunate camera angle that does not capture the group that is actually clapping?

Does the launch trailer for Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers confirm what many thought?

Irina Moritz Irina Moritz Reading time 2 minutes

Square Enix released the launch trailer for the MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers at E3 2019. The trailer showcases a special twist in the story, as well as new enemies and villains.

What can be seen in the press conference trailer? The launch trailer provides a deep insight into the story of the new expansion Shadowbringers. Until now, it was only known that players must travel to the world of The First to stop the flood of light.

Now the trailer gives more information about the story and especially about the roles of the two gods of FFXIV, Hydaelyn and Zodiark. It seems to confirm one of the theories that FFXIV players had about the gods.

What were the players’ theories? For a long time, theories have circulated in the community about who the goddess of light, Hydaelyn, really is.

The behavior of some NPCs and their dialogues led many to suspect that she is not as nice and benevolent as it appears to the player throughout the story.

With the expansion Shadowbringers, this suspicion is now confirmed: Hydaelyn is referred to as a Primal. Primals are typically enemies of the player character and their NPC friends.

ffxiv hydaelyn crystal
The goddess Hydaelyn appears in the form of a talking crystal

They influence the thoughts of humans and force them to worship the Primals to gain more power. These humans then lose their own will forever. This drastically changes Hydaelyn’s role within the FFXIV storyline.

Is this theory really true? The statement that Hydaelyn is a Primal, however, comes from one of the Ascians. These are the main antagonists of Final Fantasy XIV.

Yoshida stated, however, that in the Shadowbringers expansion, the truth about Hydaelyn and Zodiark will come to light. Therefore, it is highly likely that he meant this Primal statement.

One can be curious about what players can expect in the next expansion. Here you can read an interview that provides more details about the story of Shadowbringers:

Borderlands 3: How Moze and her giant mech play – Gameplay

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

Almost 10 minutes of gameplay footage for Moze was released during E3 2019, one of the Vault Hunters from Borderlands 3. With Moze, there is non-stop action, as the video shows.

During E3 2019, a lot of information was revealed about many games. Borderlands 3 also received a bit of spotlight with new details released. All players of Borderlands 2 can now play a new, free DLC.

But fresh gameplay footage was also shown for the upcoming Borderlands 3, featuring one of the Vault Hunters. The tough Moze was introduced in detail and got 10 minutes of gameplay dedicated to her.

What can be seen in the gameplay? In the nearly 10 minutes of gameplay, we can see the Vault Hunter Moze blasting her way through a large camp of psychos and fanatic followers of the Calypso twins. In addition to some tactical elements, such as destroying a cryo canister that freezes and slows enemies, there is mainly a lot of wild shooting, with dozens of psychos, fanatics, berserkers, and tinks losing their lives.

Moze – the tough woman in Borderlands 3

How does Moze play? Even though the player in the shown gameplay moves the crosshair in a way that seems almost mechanical, Moze appears to be based on hardcore weapon action without pause. She charges forward, throws grenades at her enemies, and regularly switches weapons to heat things up for them. If the odds become too overwhelming, she simply hops into her mech and continues the shooting spree diligently.

Moze seems to be the tough woman among the 4 classes of Borderlands 3.

The weapons that the mech has can be modified through talents. As long as Moze is in the mech, she consumes fuel. Once it runs out or her mech has taken too much damage, she gets out, and the cooldown must recover first.

Moze’s talents in the skill video

All talents of Moze revealed: For those who have already fallen in love with Moze and want to plan their talent tree with her, they should take a look at the following video. All of Moze’s talents are presented in detail and briefly discussed. However, be aware that the details may change by the release in September.

Fortnite: Only one of the big Twitch stars makes it to the solo world championship

Noah Struthoff Noah Struthoff Reading time 2 minutes

The big Twitch streamers did not perform well in the Fortnite World Cup qualifiers. Only one big star has managed to qualify for the Solo World Cup.

Who qualified? Only the American Tfue managed to do so. He will be participating in the World Cup in New York this summer.

Other big names like Ninja, Myth, or NICKMERCS are not there. They all failed in the qualification.

Fortnite World Cup without big streamers – Why?

Who qualified instead? Many players who also stream are participating, but they have not yet reached the massive follower numbers like the streamers. They focused more on eSports than on entertainment and growing their channel.

Benjyfishy
The Brit benjyfishy has qualified for Solo and Duo

Among the players who qualified for the World Cup is benjyfishy, for example. The 15-year-old is becoming increasingly popular, so his mother already took him out of school. For many Germans, Issa should also be a familiar name. The professional from Ghost Gaming is frequently featured by German YouTubers, which has increased his recognition.

He may not be among the top 50 streamers on Twitch, but he is also likely well-known worldwide: Mongraal, who gained attention as the Fortnite prodigy.

Why are the big streamers failing? There is not just one reason:

Fortnite-Ninja-bedient
Ninja will not be participating in the Solo World Cup
  • Another reason is likely the intense competition. When Fortnite became popular, and along with it the successful streamers, there was little competition that could really keep up. Now the World Cup attracts professionals from other games with numerous millions in prize money. Everyone wants to try their luck.
  • Many streamers are successful because they make spectacular kills and want to offer something to their viewers. However, this contradicts the playing style at the World Cup. Here, players play passively, and whoever can hide the longest also goes the furthest. Simply eliminating opponents is not important here.
