The challenges in City Chaos in Fortnite have been expanded. Now you have to pass two speed cameras with a speed of over 30. We show you how to do it.
What kind of task is this? Today, on May 25, two new tasks have arrived in City Chaos of Fortnite. One revolves around Jonesy, the other around speed cameras.
In this guide, we show you how to swiftly zip past the speed camera to unlock the special spray logo.
Speed camera with speed over 30 in City Chaos
Where are the speed cameras in City Chaos? On the map of City Chaos, you will find two speed cameras. The first one you encounter is near the starting point. Run down the first hill and then sprint around the curve to the right. Where the ground becomes flat again, the speed camera will be on your left side.
You can recognize it here:
The second speed camera is located just before the giant elevator that catapults you into the air at the end of the route before you cross the starting line again.
In front of the elevator on the left side is the police car including the speed camera.
How to move quickly: To reach the required speed of 30, you don’t need any big tricks. It’s best to avoid objects like ramps. Instead, run down the mountains without jumping and zip past the speed cameras.
If you do get stopped by an object and are too slow at the speed camera, then use the impulse grenade. Place it so that it shoots you directly past the speed camera. This allowed us to easily reach the required speed during testing.
If you want, you can wait a few seconds at the beginning of a City Chaos round until the other players have gone ahead. Then they won’t catch you with their impulse grenades and won’t disturb you.
Once you have reached the required speed, police sirens will sound. You will also see your measurement on the speed camera.
The reward: If you were fast enough at 2 speed cameras, you will unlock the Slam Dunk spray motif.
The Commissioner of the Overwatch League, Nate Nanzer, has announced that he is leaving Activision Blizzard. The head of the league will work for Epic Games in the future. Apparently, he will address the eSports issues with the online shooter Fortnite .
This is causing waves: The Commissioner of the Overwatch League, Nate Nanzer, announced on Twitter that he will leave Activision Blizzard as early as next week.
Nanzer was central to the establishment of the Overwatch League. He reportedly suggested the idea of a league to Overwatch chief Jeff Kaplan during Gamescom in Cologne in 2015.
On Twitter, Nanzer did not reveal where he is going.
However, Epic Games has confirmed to the US sports website ESPN that Nanzer will oversee the “Competitive eSports” division at Epic Games.

This is what Nanzer says: On Twitter, Nanzer thanks the Overwatch community for the opportunity he has been given. It has been one of the hardest decisions of his life to leave Activision Blizzard.
He cannot emphasize enough how proud he is of the success of the Overwatch League. It has been great to be the face of this league, but many overestimate his role in making the league great. It’s not about him, it’s about the fans.
Nanzer is confident that the Overwatch League is in the right hands in the future.

Who will take over for Nanzer? The Overwatch League has announced that Pete Vlastelica will take over. He states that they have the best team in the industry, who are working incredibly hard to implement the vision.
Vlastelica is currently the President and CEO of Activision Blizzard Esports Leagues.
This is what Epic Games says: They tell ESPN that they are excited to have Nate join the “Epic Games Team” where he will work on competitive Fortnite.
What’s behind it: This is likely a key position for Epic Games and Fortnite. Because Epic Games has an insane amount of money, but are struggling to turn their “casual shooter Fortnite” into an eSport.
This was apparently never planned, but with the success of Fortnite, the demand became so high that Epic Games had to act and created an eSport from scratch. However, there were some issues in the past:
After weeks of guessing and trying out various strategies, Guardians have finally mastered all challenges of the quest “The Zero Hour” in Destiny 2. However, it seems that very few players are satisfied with the reward, the ship Altmetal CF-717-91.
What is it about?The new quest “The Zero Hour” came to Destiny 2 a few weeks ago and offered players some challenges. Not only did they have to complete the time-critical quest on normal difficulty for the weapon Perfected Outbreak, but in the heroic version of the mission, players could also earn the Exotic Catalyst.
In addition, there was another exotic quest where various configurations had to be solved. After completing the Void and Arc configurations, Guardians could finally finish the Solar configuration last week. For this, they were rewarded with an exotic ship.
Guardians are rewarded with this exotic ship.
What is wrong with the ship? Players receive the exotic ship SCRAP CF-717-91 through the quest, literally translating to Altmetal CF-717-91. The name says it all, as the ship is literally a pile of space junk.
Additionally, some players had hoped for the return of a popular ship from Destiny 1: Since the Perfected Outbreak is already an updated version of the SIVA weapon Outbreak Prime, players were hoping for the ship Nanophoenix.
Nanophoenix was available in Destiny 1 in the raid Wrath of the Machine.
Some players had hoped for this ship: Nanophoenix from Wrath of the Machine.
What do the players say?In the Destiny subreddit, players seem to feel either total disdain or a strange attraction to Altmetal CF-717-91. While some reject the design of the ship, others say they love the “little ugly thing”.
Even in our comments on MeinMMO, Guardians don’t seem too excited.
One reader, Mahagosh, humorously asked: “Which side is front and which is back on this ship?”
Marki Wolle states: “I would say that the ship is only for collectors and belongs in the vault. Because looking at it makes one feel nauseous. At least it doesn’t seem to be a reskin.”
CandyAndyDE writes: “Man, the spaceship is so ugly that any junk shredder would break down. In Destiny 1 there were such beautiful ships, and they have to torture us with such a heap of junk.”
Where is Sylvanas’ story headed in WoW? YouTuber Bellular presents an exciting theory: She won’t die, but she will soon leave the Horde.
Patch 8.2 Azshara’s Rise is currently on the test server of World of Warcraft and has now entered the “fine-tuning” phase. Although in Patch 8.2, the Warchief of the Horde, Sylvanas Windrunner, is not the focus of the narrative, there are some clues about where her journey will lead. Sylvanas herself mentions that her “endgame” will start soon, meaning the implementation of her grand plan. But what is it, exactly?
YouTuber Bellular has analyzed and summarized the events of Patch 8.2 Azshara’s Rise and the previous actions of the Banshee Queen in a detailed YouTube video. He presents an interesting hypothesis regarding Sylvanas’ future.
Bellular’s assumption: Sylvanas will leave the Horde and become a true “Mistress of Death.” She will essentially create an independent faction (not a “new faction” for players) and act detached from both the Horde and the Alliance.
This would provide two advantages for the narrative:
The Horde can become “moderate” again and, under a new leader, no longer pursue such a radical warpath.
Sylvanas could continue to exist. She is a figurehead of World of Warcraft and a fan favorite. She is responsible for dramatic, shocking moments (such as the burning of Teldrassil) and thus is a character that evokes emotions in players.
That Sylvanas is a cool and forward-thinking strategist is something few players will doubt. This is also reflected in Patch 8.2 Azshara’s Rise. Here, Sylvanas sends her servant Nathanos along with the player out to sea. They are to follow the dagger Xal’atath.

The interesting thing about this is that Sylvanas already knows that something will happen at sea that will require many sacrifices. She makes it clear to the player that the losses on both sides (Horde and Alliance) will be massive. One should take this opportunity to eliminate the disloyal followers of the Horde.
The ambush by Azshara, in which the sea opens up and the remaining fleet of the Horde and Alliance is pulled down, is not a real ambush for Sylvanas. She knows this and accepts that it will happen, but does not keep it a real secret. She says to the player:
“The next phase of our campaign is at hand. Sail out with the remnants of our fleet. The blade will lead you to the meeting point. There will be great losses on both sides. Consider this an opportunity to weed out the disloyal.”
Sylvanas makes deals in Legion: In the Legion expansion, Sylvanas receives a lamp from Helya, with which she intends to enslave Eyir to create more Val’kyr. As we know, this was prevented by Genn Greymane, who smashed the lamp. However, it is still unknown what exact deal Sylvanas made with Helya.
It is also interesting that Helya, although defeated in Legion, did not die. A quest from the Island Expeditions clearly states that the Kvaldir have built a large fleet and that Helya is once again active in Helheim. She lives. And whatever pact she made with Sylvanas seems to still be in effect.
The end of player decisions: Currently, players can choose in certain quests whom to remain loyal to. They can either join Saurfang and his small rebellion or work as an agent for Sylvanas and inform her about all activities within the rebellion.
Blizzard has already revealed that both decision options will ultimately lead to the same outcome. After all, they want a logical game world that is nearly the same for all players.
Bellular’s theory fits perfectly here, because if Sylvanas renounces the Horde and cuts all ties, she could eliminate both types of players. The traitors she would leave behind anyway, and her loyal agents as well – because she would have no more use for them.
How would it continue in the Horde?
What about the Forsaken? Bellular does not speculate on the future of the Forsaken, which is why we will suggest one ourselves. It is quite possible that the Forsaken who are not part of Sylvanas’ plan will receive a new leader. Nathanos seems to be out, as he is fiercely loyal to Sylvanas and will likely fight by the side of the Banshee Queen.
However, there is still one “undead person” who could take the role of ruler: Calia Menethil. She is the sister of Arthas and was killed in the book “Before the Storm.” In the last pages of the story, however, she was turned into an undead, radiating light energy through a strange ritual involving a naaru, Anduin, and a Forsaken.
A new form of undead has been created. As the last existing Menethil, she would be the rightful heir to the throne of Lordaeron and thus by birthright, the “Queen of the Forsaken” – a concern that also troubles Sylvanas in the book, which is why she kills Calia in the first place.
Calia could ensure that the remaining Forsaken (like the player characters) are led on a “friendlier” path and better fit into the Horde. Something similar happened with the Blood Elves in “The Burning Crusade,” who initially used fel magic and killed naaru, but later found their way back to the light and the Sunwell.
Calia Menethil first appeared with the priests, and was later killed in “Before the Storm.”
The long plan: The destruction of Stormwind
But what does Sylvanas actually want? What is the “endgame” she speaks of, the one she is working towards and wants to achieve? For this, Bellular refers again to the book “Before the Storm.” There, Sylvanas touches Azerite for the first time and has the following thought, akin to a vision:
She was no longer the Dark Lady or a queen. She was a goddess of destruction and creation. She was dizzy from the realization that she had never understood how deeply connected these two were.
Armies, cities, whole cultures – she could create them. Or bring them down. Stormwind would be among the first and would sacrifice its inhabitants to enlarge their own forces. She could spread death on a scale that –
Even the Azerite gives her the vision that she could destroy Stormwind and turn the inhabitants into her servants.
When Sylvanas touches the Azerite, she has a vision of the destruction of Stormwind.
That Sylvanas is sticking to this plan is also evident in another instance, even before she touches the Azerite. Here it is stated in a conversation with her subordinate Nathanos:
‘Soon I will call upon the brave warriors of the Horde for another battle. One that you and I have long desired.’
Nathanos was silent. She did not interpret this as rejection or disapproval. He was often silent. That he did not ask her for more details meant that he understood what she wanted.
Stormwind.
It is therefore to be assumed that Sylvanas is still committed to her plan to overthrow Stormwind and turn the humans into undead servants that she then needs for her “grand plan.”
Whether her plan will succeed remains to be seen. After all, it is also possible that her plans have changed in the meantime.
Hopefully, Blizzard will give us more clues soon so we know where Sylvanas’ journey is headed.
What do you think is Sylvanas’ future fate? Will she remain the leader of the Forsaken? Or will she belong to a completely new grouping in the next expansion?

This is an AI-powered translation. Some inaccuracies might exist.
The two companies Bungie and Activision are going separate ways, and Bungie retains its brand “Destiny“. This has been known since January 2019, but now it is also visible in the Blizzard launcher Battle.net. This raises questions about how PC players will play the shooter in the coming years.
The two companies are still linked through the Blizzard launcher, battle.net, as Destiny 2 is exclusively playable on PC there. The shooter is available on PC nowhere else, not on Steam, not anywhere else.
This is what Destiny 2 looked like in Battle.net:
For a long time it said “Destiny 2 – developed by Bungie, published by Activision Blizzard.”
Additionally, Destiny 2 was listed in the Blizzard launcher under “Activision” – alongside Call of Duty: Black Ops 4.
This is what Destiny 2 looks like now in Battle.net.
This is now different: Destiny 2 is still in the Blizzard launcher, but is now categorized differently:
It now states: “Destiny 2 – developed by Bungie, published by Bungie.”
And the section “by Activision” is now simply titled “by partners.”
The future of Destiny on PC therefore seems unclear:
Will Destiny 2 really remain in the launcher permanently – even when the game is eventually hardly supported, as is currently the case with Destiny 1?
And what happens with Destiny 3 – will it come to Steam, the Epic Games Store, or does Bungie want to develop its own launcher?
For the time being, it seems Blizzard has found a solution for how to deal with the strange relationship to Destiny 2: Bungie and Activision are both “partners.”
In the online card game Hearthstone (PC, iOS, Android), a new legendary card called Schn1pp-Schn4pp is coming on June 3. However, Blizzard has overlooked a combination that allows Priests to start an unstoppable combo as early as turn 5. A nerf is needed, but for a different card.
What kind of new card is that? The card “Schn1pp-Schn4pp” is a neutral legendary minion for 3 mana with 2/3 stats and the following abilities:
Magnetic – can attach to other Mechs
Echo – can be played any number of times in a turn
Deathrattle – when Schn1pp-Schn4pp dies, 2 1/1 Microbots appear
This is the card everyone is talking about in Hearthstone.
The card is not yet in Hearthstone, but it has already sparked discussions since its announcement.
This is the death combo: As soon as the new card was revealed, players already raised alarms. The crafty tinkerers in the Hearthstone community discovered a combination involving Schn1pp-Schn4pp that allows players to inflict “infinite damage”.
The death combo works only with Priests and only if the opponent has no Spotter on the board.
Then the Priest just needs to play any Mech in turn 4 that survives until turn 5 and is ready to attack. The “False Coppertail” is suitable for this, as it has Stealth.
After that, the Priest plays the “Ruthless Explorer” in turn 5. She reduces the cost of all minions with Deathrattle by 3, but they die at the end of the turn. The Explorer makes Schn1pp-Schn4pp cost not 3 mana anymore, but 0.
Now the Priest can play an infinite number of Schn1pp-Schn4pp (due to Echo) and attach them to the False Coppertail (thanks to Magnetic). The Coppertail can reach incredibly high damage numbers and kill the opponent in one hit. Blizzard generally does not like such combos in Hearthstone.
This is what Blizzard says: They state that they became “aware” of this combination of Schn1pp-Schn4pp and the Ruthless Explorer after the announcement of the Hearthstone update.
With the patch on June 3, the Ruthless Explorer will be nerfed so that she still reduces the cost of minions with Deathrattle by 3, but the reduced-cost minions will cost at least 1 mana.
As with every nerf, players can disenchant the Explorer for two weeks and receive the full dust back.
Blizzard also states they are aware of further such combos in Wild with Schn1pp-Schn4pp. Anyone who uses multiple Mechwarpers can also reduce the cost of the new legendary card to 0 and start such combos.
However, Blizzard wants to observe first.
This is what players are saying about the nerf: The nerf is generally well received on reddit. Blizzard has solved a problem without outright killing the card, they say. Even for 1 mana, the combo is still strong.
Today, on May 25, the Lapras Day started in Pokémon GO. We provide you with information about the duration, Shinys, and the best counters.
This event is about: There hasn’t been a Raid Day in Pokémon GO for a long time. In this event, a special Pokémon will appear in arenas for exactly 3 hours.
In this case, everything revolves around Lapras. The Level 4 Raid can appear in its shiny form and learn two special moves.
Raid Day with Lapras in May – All Info and Bonuses
What: The Raid Day with Lapras in May 2019 When: On Saturday, May 25, from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM German time Pokémon of the Day: Lapras Exclusive Move: Icy Wind and Ice Beam Bonus: Double Raid Experience Points Bonus: Double Raid Stardust Bonus: 5 free Raid Passes are available
The Raid Day with Lapras is coming!
This is how the Raid Day will proceed: At exactly 11 AM, Lapras raids will be available everywhere. The only exception is EX Raid arenas, which have already distributed invites for the upcoming time.
The Lapras raids will last for 3 hours everywhere. At 2 PM, the fun will be over and the Lapras raids will disappear. The normal raid bosses will take over the arenas again.
Shiny Lapras for Raid Day
Are there Shiny Lapras? Niantic has already confirmed that you can encounter Shiny Lapras during the Raid Day. The Shiny has been in the game since the Safari Zone in Singapore, but very few players will have had the chance to catch a Shiny Lapras, as it has been incredibly rare up until now.
This is what Shiny Lapras looks like.
What is the chance of getting Shiny Lapras? In the upcoming event, you will have the best chance of encountering Lapras. While there are no exact numbers yet, it is assumed that the rate is about 1 in 20. That’s how it was during the Raid Day with Gengar.
The Bonuses for Lapras Day
What bonuses are there? During the Raid Day, there will also be an event that provides some bonuses for raids. Here are the extras:
Double Experience Points during raids
Double Stardust during raids
Enjoy double Stardust from raids
If you plan to do many raids consecutively, the bonuses are particularly worthwhile. For example, if you use a Lucky Egg, you can easily earn 400,000 XP during the three hours.
Lapras with the Exclusive Moves – Is it worth it?
Which moves are we talking about? During the three hours, Lapras will learn the moves Icy Wind and Ice Beam. They are only available if you catch Lapras in the raid during that time.
Ice Beam is one of the moves that Lapras can learn.
How strong are the moves? Both moves enhance Lapras. Especially in PvP, this Pokémon becomes quite useful. In arenas and raids, however, Lapras remains rather weak. There is too much competition among ice attackers, where Lapras simply cannot prevail.
This is how you can do many raids within 3 hours
Keep these tips in mind: If you live in a place with enough arenas, you can easily do around 30 raids during that time.
To do many raids, you need to make preparations
Plan your route in advance
Look for many arenas in a row along the route. Avoid passing the same arena multiple times
Fight the raid boss while moving
Once you’ve started the battle, you can walk as far from the arena as you want. Take advantage of this and walk towards the next arena already. This can save you a lot of time
Skip great throws
Great throws take time. If you don’t have a Lapras with good IV in front of you, just use a golden Razz Berry and throw it quickly. This way, you can catch the Pokémon faster or get rid of the balls more efficiently
Stick to small groups
More players also mean more problems during raids. Keep your groups small. This way, you’ll be much more effective and make faster progress
The best counters against Lapras
What is Lapras weak against? This Pokémon has weaknesses against the types Fighting, Rock, Electric, and Grass. So, you have a wide array of good counters available.
Raikou is the best counter against Lapras
The best counters against Lapras are the following Pokémon:
Raikou with Thunder Shock and Wild Charge
Machamp with Counter and Dynamic Punch
Magnezone with Spark and Wild Charge
Electivire with Thunder Shock and Wild Charge
Hariyama with Counter and Dynamic Punch
Roserade with Razor Leaf and Grass Knot
How many people do you need for Lapras? This Pokémon can be defeated with just two players. However, for a faster defeat, around 4-5 players should be present.
A good alternative to Raikou is Machamp
Lapras with Good IV – What to Look For
What CP should Lapras have in the raid? To have a Lapras with 100% IV, it must have 1509 CP. With weather bonus, it can even reach 1886 CP in the raid. However, it needs to be raining or snowing.
The closer your Lapras is to these CP, the better its IV will be. So, anything around 1500 CP is worth catching.
Use these items on Lapras Day
Lucky Egg – 6 pieces
It’s best to have a Lucky Egg running for the full 3 hours. The doubled XP is especially noticeable during raids.
Lucky Eggs are the most important items in the event
Star Piece – 6 pieces
Since there is also double Stardust from the raids, a Star Piece is worthwhile as well. This way, you’ll get 3000 Stardust per raid. If you manage to do 20 raids during this time, you’ll end up with 60,000 Stardust. It’s definitely worth it.
GO Plus
During the event, you want to focus on the raids, making a GO Plus very important as it catches Pokémon for you at the press of a button.
What raid bosses await you in June and July is also already known:
Fans of games are eagerly waiting for the E3 2019 gaming fair. There are already interesting leaks, like this one about a Ubisoft game. It is supposed to be called Roller Championsand sounds like Ubisoft’s answer to Rocket League.
The leak originally comes from Twitter user @New_WabiSabi. The user claims that they were shown professional images and artwork of the game. “If they are faked, ridiculous amounts of work and skill went into them.”
The corresponding tweet contains an image of the game’s logo. Additionally, it states that Roller Champions will be revealed this year. It is “very likely” that the reveal will happen during E3 2019.
What kind of game is Roller Champions? The information from the leak is still extremely sparse. “Skating and a sports ball are included,” it says. Sounds like players will skate around while handling a ball.
This strongly resembles Rocket League. In the popular sports game, you drive various cars through arenas, use rocket boosts, and try to score a huge ball into the opponent’s goal. So could Roller Champions be similar, but without cars and instead with players on skates?
Another Twitter user claims to know people who have already played the game. He says it is reminiscent of Rocket League but is still different. “Handball meets rollerblades.”

Other Twitter users write that the game reminds them of the game mode Lucio-Ball from Overwatch based on the description. The character also skates there. Blizzard designed a sort of soccer game together with the hero.

Furthermore, the Twitter account with the leak states that the game didn’t look graphically demanding. User New_WabiSabi suspects that it could even come to the Switch.

In the online shooter Fortnite, there has been a controversy surrounding Twitch streamer Tfue and his e-sports organization FaZe for a few days now. FaZe has now explained why they don’t want to let Tfue go and why the Twitch star actually wants to leave.
Here comes the statement: The FaZe clan uploaded a 7:15 minute long video on Twitter yesterday, where they share their perspective. FaZe CBass and Lee Trink, the CEO of FaZe Clan, speak in the video.
Their view on the lawsuit by Tfue differs significantly from how the streamer Turner “Tfue” Tenney presents his situation.

This is how FaZe sees Tfue: They are well aware of the influence Tfue has had on FaZe as a brand, explains FaZe CBass.
They are incredibly proud of what Tfue achieved last year. The products developed around the Fortnite star are among the best works FaZe has ever delivered as a company.
They have worked for 8 years to collaborate with a talent as gifted as Tfue.
At that time, the world was still good for Tfue and FaZe.
FaZe can’t let Tfue go because of the fans
This is why Tfue can’t leave: For FaZe, their own fans come first. It’s about protecting the relationship with the fans. Because over the past year, fans have built a relationship with Tfue.
It is said: Fans have invested their time, enthusiasm, concern, and love into the relationship that FaZe has built with Tfue.
Thus, they cannot simply let Tfue go just because he wants to. That would cast a completely wrong light on gaming and on relationships in general.

This tweet by Tfue’s brother, who wants to start his own organization, is referenced by FaZe.
Tfue allegedly wants to start his own e-sports organization
Why does Tfue want to leave? According to FaZe, Tfue is only interested in leaving the organization because he wants to start his own e-sports organization. FaZe is apparently referring to statements made by Tfue’s brother.
FaZe cannot allow that. It would be like the Lakers allowing NBA star LeBron James to open his own basketball team in the city.
Therefore, all attempts to negotiate with Tfue have failed.
Anyone from FaZe who demands that Tfue be allowed to do that or let him go is simply not reasonable.
This Facebook post by Tfue’s brother is referenced by FaZe in the video.
This is how FaZe wanted to mend the situation: FaZe states that they have been trying from the very beginning to replace the “old contract” with Tfue with a better one. This would have eliminated all negative clauses immediately.
The old contract was negotiated under different management.
It is said that when the current management was in place, FaZe made it clear to Tfue early on: “We don’t like the contract Tfue signed either.”
They have never enforced any of these clauses to make it clear from the beginning how much they value Tfue. They have only earned $60,000 with him, which were two sponsor deals that FaZe secured for Tfue, from which they took 20%.
FaZe then explains in detail that they wanted to fulfill all of Tfue’s wishes in a new contract but hit a wall. The negotiations did not go well – there were sometimes no responses at all.
This is what’s behind it: The interesting thing here is that Tfue really seems to have signed a terrible contract, and FaZe knew that.
When FaZe realized what a big star Tfue was becoming through Fortnite and Twitch, they apparently wanted to fix this mistake and try to find a better basis with Tfue, but by then it seemed to have been too late.
The clan now claims to be doing everything right – but the question remains: How could they offer Tfue such terrible conditions if they wanted to work with him long-term? And why would they include such clauses in a contract if they did not intend to enforce them?
The FaZe side is plausible. It is credible,
that with the new management, they absolutely wanted to maintain the relationship with Tfue.
that FaZe is not looking to squeeze money from Tfue, but he is much more valuable as a brand ambassador, whom they bought in very cheaply
However, questions remain:
What was FaZe thinking when allowing him to sign the first contract?
How do they intend to keep Tfue in the organization against his will until the end of 2021 if he wants out so clearly?
Is it even possible to find a common ground for a trustworthy collaboration now?
For anyone wondering under what circumstances he could have signed the contract, we have an answer:
The new City Chaos challenges in Fortnite have 3 new search locations for Jonesy. You need to search for Jonesy near a basketball court, close to rooftops, and behind a truck. We will show you the three locations here.
What are these tasks? Regularly, Fortnite unlocks new tasks for the new City Chaos theme. You can complete them to unlock cosmetic items. The challenges are easy to complete and only require a few minutes of your time.
The new challenges of City Chaos on May 25 are:
Find Jonesy near a basketball court, close to rooftops, and behind a truck
Move past speed traps at over 30 speed
In this article, we will show you the 3 new locations for Jonesy. The order in which you visit them does not matter.
Find Jonesy near a basketball court – City Chaos
Where do you have to search for Jonesy near a basketball court? This location is one of the easiest. Start a round of City Chaos and run straight down the first hill on the left side after the match starts. Then you will already see the basketball court on the left side. Open the door in the metal fence and go inside; the Jonesy cutout is under the basket.
In the middle of the hill, you need to stop. Use the police car that is hovering in the air as your orientation.
The yellow railings on the right side are the place you need to reach. Equip the impulse grenade and place it under you in a way that you are catapulted into the air by its explosion and land at the height of the yellow railings.
Inside, you need to walk up the stairs. It’s best to help yourself with the impulse grenade as well. When you reach the top, the Jonesy cutout will be there.
Find Jonesy in a truck – City Chaos
Where do you have to search for Jonesy in the truck? To find the mentioned truck, you need to finish a round on City Chaos. At the end of the map, an elevator will catapult you into the air. Once you leave this elevator, try to stop. So press “backwards”.
On the left side, you will find a small alley.
Go into the shown alley. On the left side, you will find a small pickup with the Jonesy cutout on it.
After visiting the three locations, the challenge is considered “completed” and you have unlocked the banana style option for the sport board.
Here you will find more guides to Chaos City that will unlock other cosmetic rewards:
In a new gameplay trailer, the developers of Ghost Recon Breakpoint discuss the survival elements of the shooter and how they want to bring fresh air into the game world.
This is shown in the trailer: The new gameplay was released by IGN and shows some gameplay scenes. Additionally, developers talk about how they want to integrate survival into the open game world.
The title of the video is already very ambitious: “How Ghost Recon Breakpoint redefines survival.”
As an elite soldier behind enemy lines
Here’s why survival should feel different: The focus of the gameplay is primarily on making you really feel like an elite soldier operating in enemy territory. In this context, survival elements play an important role.
Players should feel a constant threat as they move through the game world
It is crucial that they consume enough food
Injuries of varying degrees also play a significant role.
Depending on how severely you are injured, your movement is impaired, and at some point, you may not even be able to aim accurately.
However, survival should never feel exhausting or annoying.
Additionally new is the Social Hub as well as the bivouac. This is a camp that you can set up in the game world. There you can regenerate and modify your equipment.
In enemy territories, you need to hide well
During the gameplay, several members of the development team also talk about the implementation of survival.
Breakpoint is still a shooter and is not intended to be a pure survival game. Rather, the developers are focused on the atmosphere and mood of the game. According to the developers, you cannot die from not drinking or eating enough, as Ubisoft emphasizes:
We do not utilize survival in a gameplay way that requires completing specific and boring tasks. Why? When we talk about Ghost Recon, we are discussing an instant simulation. When people come in, they want to feel like elite soldiers, they want to use high-end weapons, and they want to survive in exciting situations.
Executive Producer Nouedine Abboud
So why more survival? According to the developers, the fan feedback on Ghost Recon Wildlands was positive, but a frequent criticism was that the game world did not feel truly threatening. They want to prevent this with Breakpoint.
You will encounter many problems in the game world for which you must develop various strategies. You are constantly hunted by the mysterious Wolves, which is intended to enhance the feeling of threat.

Today, on the night of May 25th, the great vendor reset took place at The Division 2 for this week.
This is the vendor reset: On the night from Friday to Saturday, the vendor reset occurs at The Division 2. The vendors will then have new items in their offerings. Here we present high-end items that you can find this week on World Tier 5.
Unfortunately, since the release, it has become clear that the vendor offers rarely provide really good items. Nevertheless, we try to at least list somewhat usable offers.
These are the best items from the vendors
Weapons:
Cassie Mandoza – The Railsplitter (CTAR-21)
Active Talent: Measured (The top half of the magazine has +20% rate of fire and -15% weapon damage. The bottom half of the magazine has -20% rate of fire and +30% weapon damage)
Passive Talent: Extra (+20% magazine capacity)
Holstered/Equipped Talent: Rascally (When this weapon is in the holster, you can resist “Stickiness” attacks. This can occur every 60 seconds)
Gear:
Cassie Mandoza – Wyvern Wear Backpack
Talents: On the Ropes (Weapon damage is increased by 25% when all skills are on cooldown or their charges reach 0), Merciless (+10% damage against elite enemies)
What is the next Call of Duty called? Games from long-running franchises sometimes follow strange conventions in naming. This is especially true for Call of Duty, which has been called Modern Warfare, Advanced Warfare, Infinite Warfare, and then again just WW2.
However, the name of the next title surprises again, as the CoD for 2019 is simply called Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.
The only difference from the (almost) similarly named game from 2007 is that this game is called Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. The latest game will not contain a number at all, but amusingly it would be the 4th game in the Modern Warfare series by Infinity Ward.
How do we know that the game is called that? The famous investigative journalist Jason Schreier from Kotaku claims to have uncovered the info about the new CoD. Since Schreier is considered well-connected and has often been correct in his statements, there might actually be some truth to the new name.
How are the fans reacting? On Reddit many fans are laughing at the quirky naming of the new game.
“I can’t decide if this is bad or ridiculous”
“How about ‘ridiculously bad’?”
“They’ll probably slap a 2019 on it, like Doom”
“Coming in Summer 2020 – Modern Warfare 5: Call of Duty”
“This is almost as bad as the naming methods in Fast and Furious”
What could be in the new CoD? Perhaps the developers with the “new” name are pursuing a specific plan to return the series to its roots. Because the overly futuristic titles like Infinite Warfare were received poorly.
Thus, with WW2 they went back to the beginning of the series, in World War II. It’s possible that Modern Warfare intends to do the same, just set in a contemporary context to our present time.
It’s that time. Today, May 24, Xur is visiting Destiny 2. What items does the exotic vendor have for you this time? And where can you find him in the coming days? Here you can find everything about Xur’s location and inventory this weekend.
This week, the exotic quest in the heroic mission “The Hour Zero” can finally be completed. Diligent Guardians can not only fully level up the Masterwork Catalyst for Perfected Outbreak – an exotic ship is also waiting for you if you master the final quest step “Solar Configuration” this week.
Moreover, Bungie has revealed more about the upcoming Season 7 for the weekend. You can find more about it here:
All info about Xur in Destiny 2 on 24.05. on PS4, Xbox One, and PC
Additionally, Xur is coming by today and hopefully has some cool exotics in his bag. Could he possibly surprise some Guardians today with a missing Forsaken exotic?
When Xur arrives
The Xur time: Xur will be there as usual at 7:00 PM sharp. At a cozy spot somewhere in the world of Destiny 2, he will set up his stand and start selling selected exotics. With the reset on May 28, the noodle face will disappear along with all his items.
Where is Xur? You can find him at this location today
Position of Xur: The noodle face is today in the EDT area “Twisted Cove” on Earth.
The inventory of Xur and his exotics from 24.05. to 28.05.
Weapon:Workhorse – Auto rifle for 29 Legendary Shards
Hunter:Raiden Flux – Chest armor for 23 Legendary Shards
1. Perk Branch: Increased Resilience, Improved Health Regeneration
Lapras returns to raids for the Raid Day in May of Pokémon GO. We will tell you how to defeat the Pokémon easily in pairs.
You need to be at least this level: To defeat Lapras in pairs, you only need to be at Level 30. The higher your level and your Pokémon are, the easier it will be.
What counters should you use? Lapras is vulnerable to Fighting, Electric, Grass, and Rock types. Electric Pokémon are most effective. So make sure to have a strong team of that type.
Raikou is the best counter against Lapras
These bonuses help you: If your Pokémon benefit from the weather bonus and you and your raid partner have a high friendship level, the raid becomes significantly easier.
These requirements must be met: To defeat Lapras at this level, you need suitable weather and the best friendship level. Only then can you truly conquer Lapras.
With Machoke you can defeat Lapras very well
This is what your team should look like: You can only defeat Lapras in rainy or cloudy weather. For this, you need either Electric or Fighting Pokémon. They are then boosted by the weather. It’s important that your Pokémon are also at Level 25 and not just you as a Trainer.
Electivire with Thunder Shock and Thunder Punch (only in rain)
Raikou with Thunder Shock and Thunder Punch (only in rain)
Magnezone with Spark and Thunder Punch (only in rain)
Zapdos with Thunder Shock and Thunderbolt (only in rain)
Luxray with Spark and Thunder Punch (only in rain)
Machoke with Counter and Dynamic Punch (only in cloudy)
Hariyama with Counter and Dynamic Punch (only in cloudy)
Defeating Lapras at Level 35 – Here’s how
These requirements must be met: At Level 35, the weather and friendship level are also crucial. However, you can attack in sunny or partly cloudy weather if you have the right counters.
In sunny weather you can use Roserade
This is what your team should look like: All the counters mentioned above work here as well, provided it is raining in the game or cloudy. If it is sunny, then rely on Grass Pokémon. If it is partly cloudy, you can use Rock Pokémon. Another Fighting Pokémon should also be included.
Toxicroak with Counter and Dynamic Punch (only in cloudy)
Roserade with Razor Leaf and Leaf Storm (only in sun)
Venusaur with Vine Whip and Flora Statue (only in sun)
Sceptile with Bullet Seed and Flora Statue (only in sun)
Leafeon with Razor Leaf and Leaf Blade (only in sun)
Tangrowth with Vine Whip and Solar Beam (only in sun)
Tyranitar with Stone Edge and Rock Slide (only in partly cloudy)
Rhyhornior with Stone Edge and Rock Slide (only in partly cloudy)
Defeating Lapras at Level 40 – Here’s how
These requirements must be met: With Pokémon at Level 40, you have considerably more flexibility. You don’t need to have maximum friendship level or be dependent on the right weather.
At Level 40, you have the best options to defeat Lapras in pairs
This is what your team should look like: If none of the Pokémon mentioned above are boosted by the weather, then you can also defeat Lapras with two Pokémon without the weather bonus:
Raikou with Thunder Shock and Thunder Punch
Machoke with Counter and Dynamic Punch
Depending on the weather, there are some additional counters that you can use. Here’s the appropriate list:
Mewtwo with Psycho Cut and Thunderbolt (only in rain)
Alolan Golem with Stone Edge and Thunder Punch (only in rain)
Jolteon with Thunder Shock and Thunderbolt (only in rain)
Exeggutor with Bullet Seed and Solar Beam (only in sun)
Rhyperior with Stone Edge and Rock Slide (only in partly cloudy)
Blaziken with Counter and Focus Blast (only in cloudy)
Lucario with Counter and Close Combat (only in cloudy)
Cacturne with Counter and Dynamic Punch (only in cloudy)
After the Lapras Day, 3 new raid bosses are waiting for you:
Currently, the MMORPG Albion Online is struggling with DDoS attacks. This is nothing new for the developers, as there were already attacks on the servers at release.
What just happened to the servers of Albion? Community Manager Elsa announced in the forum that there may be disconnects and lags in Albion Online.
Although the developers had recently resolved connection issues, the servers are currently not performing well. The reason for this is the DDoS attacks from outside, targeting the game’s servers.
What is Albion Online doing against the attacks? According to Elsa, they are collaborating with one of the leading hosting companies to fend off the attacks.
This has so far worked well, and the servers have withstood the attacks. Nevertheless, due to the attacks, there are issues with connectivity and the mentioned lags.
However, the community manager could not provide us with more detailed information to avoid giving the attackers too much information.
DDoS attacks are already familiar to Albion Online
Does someone not want Albion Online to succeed? At the release of the game, there was already a similar situation surrounding Albion. Back then it was extortionists who wanted to exploit the good start of the MMORPG to fill their own pockets.
Of course, the developers find it extremely frustrating that attacks are happening right during these good times for the game.
Is there compensation for the players? So far, there is no information regarding compensations due to the connectivity issues. During the attacks in 2017, the developers decided to give away free game time.
Our author Alexander Leitsch took a closer look at Albion Online after the Free2Play release:
The TOTS event in FIFA 19 continues with the Bundesliga Team of the Season. Find out which players the fans voted for here.
The Bundesliga TOTS:As with the Community TOTS the fans also had the opportunity to vote for which players will receive new, extremely strong TOTS cards.
40 of the best players from the Bundesliga season 2018/2019 were up for election. 23 spots were available.
The voting is now over and these players received the most votes:
The Bundesliga Team of the Season
The strongest players in the Bundesliga TOTS: The cards with the highest overall rating in the Bundesliga TOTS are Reus (98), Lewandowski (98), and Sancho (96). However, Trapp (95), Kimmich (95), Havertz (95), Werner (95), and Jovic (94) are also very strong.
Bundesliga TOTS – Starting XI
Starting XI:
GK: Trapp (95)
RB: Kimmich (95)
LB: Halstenberg (91)
LWB: Kostic (93)
RWB: Da Costa (92)
CAM: Reus (98)
CAM: Brandt (93)
CAM: Havertz (95)
RM: Sancho (96)
ST: Lewandowski (98)
ST: Jovic (94)
Bundesliga TOTS – Substitutes
Substitutes:
GK: Sommer (95)

RM: Gnabry (91)
CM: Kampl (88)
ST: Werner (95)
CF: Kruse (92)
CDM: Witsel (93)
ST: Volland (91)
The new TOTS card for Reus: Marco Reus receives an extremely improved special card as expected for the TOTS event.
Reus TOTS card (98)
This is already the ninth special card for Marco Reus in FUT 19, and this one really packs a punch. The offensive stats leave nothing to be desired. This TOTS card is likely one of the best that FUT 19 has to offer.
League Portugal
Another league: In addition to the Bundesliga TOTS, the Portuguese league also receives its own Team of the Season, featuring these cards:
How to get the new TOTS cards
From packs: As always, you can find TOTS cards in these packs:
However, it should be noted that a lot of luck is really necessary to pull a TOTS card. Therefore, we recommend using the transfer market.
What to keep in mind in the transfer market: Here you can specifically buy TOTS players. However, prices can be pretty high, especially when a new Team of the Season is released.
Therefore, it may well be worth not buying your desired TOTS player directly. If they have been on the market for a while, the price usually drops.
What exactly is the Team of the Season?
This is how the event works: The Team of the Season (TOTS) wraps up the FUT season each year and is for many FUT players the biggest and most important event in FIFA Ultimate Team. With this event, a multitude of blue, highly upgraded cards are introduced into the game.
What players are looking forward to:
Over 200 special cards are expected, as each week during the TOTS event, a different team with at least 23 new TOTS cards is released. The influx of new, very strong cards is therefore enormous.
Fortnite: Battle Royale recently offered some skins themed around “Fish” in the shop. Among them was a design called “Slippery.” However, it was supposed to have features that it ultimately did not include.
Which skin is it about? On 24.05.2019, the Fortnite shop was all about fish. Not only did the extremely silly skin “Fishstick” return, this time with another version (a VR Cyber Fish). There were also three “fishy” designs. These are skins for items that let you customize your weapons and vehicles.
There were three of them: a scale pattern, a fish head pattern, and another scale design, but according to the description, it had animation. Therefore, it costs also 500 (5 Euros) instead of 300 (3 Euros) V-Bucks.
Fish design makes customers angry
What was the problem with the skin? For the 2 extra Euros, many customers of the “Slippery Skin Design” were looking forward to processing their opponents into fish food with cool animated fish scales on their weapons.
But no matter how you turned it, the design only showed the same scales and no animation or reaction. It was actually just a different color version of the scale design for 300 V-Bucks.
This is how Epic reacts: There were some complaints about this. After all, people only bought the more expensive product because they wanted the animations. On Reddit, some dissatisfied customers shared their opinions.
Epic shortly responded via Twitter and admitted that they made a mistake. The design would not be animated. Therefore, they would reduce the price from 500 to 300. Everyone who purchased the item will receive a refund of the 200 V-Bucks difference.
This is what fans say: Some players think it’s okay that the design is now cheaper. But others are very confused as to why all the other non-animated designs for 500 V-Bucks still cost so much.
“Golden Scales also cost 500 V-Bucks and was not animated, why don’t you change that to 300 V-Bucks too?”
Others fans are disappointed because they specifically wanted the animated design. They do not want another skin that does nothing, not even for 300 V-Bucks:
“Can I get a full refund? The main reason for me was to have an animated skin. I don’t want another non-animated one.”
While some fans still hope that Epic will add the animation later, others mock that the buyer of the skin should have checked first whether the feature really works as advertised before spending money. So he is to blame for now having a useless fish design.
Fortunately, there is still the regular exchange action:
On May 28, Guild Wars 2 wants to introduce new “Quality of Life” changes to the game. These changes are part of a variety of adjustments that have already been made in recent months. Our author Alexander Leitsch finds the tackling of old systems very positive.
Guild Wars 2 celebrates its seventh birthday in August. Over time, games become outdated, and you can see that with this MMORPG as well. However, since April 2018, the developers have been revising many old systems. And I really like that.
Next Tuesday, the process is set to continue. The latest change seems quite unspectacular.
What can we expect in the upcoming patch? For the patch on May 28, small adjustments to gear with selectable attributes are planned.
When I farmed Ascended jewelry using the currency Winterberries, that gear had specific values to choose from. These were previously restricted to the expansion Heart of Thorns.
But now everything will be standardized. No matter where the gear I farmed comes from, the selectable values will adapt to the status of my account. If I only owned Path of Fire, I could only use those values and those of the base game. Of course, I own all expansions and can access all values accordingly.
However, there are three small exceptions:
Crafted backpieces
Armor and weapon rewards from elite specialization collections
Attribute combinations related to raids and fractals
So far, so unspectacular. However, when you look at this change in connection with the many other adjustments, a complete picture is slowly emerging.
Guild Wars 2 wants to become more beginner-friendly, clearer, and generally more understandable. And with the latest patches, they are succeeding in that.
Less clutter in the inventory, underwater combat, and standardization
Where do the QoL changes begin? ArenaNet was known for a long time for “making things worse” in Guild Wars 2. With the revamp in August 2014, they started improving the entry into the game.
The developers streamlined the system at the beginning and simply removed content like the downstate or elite skills, only to unlock them again at a later level.
While beginners were no longer overwhelmed by content, they were suddenly surprised by mechanics that simply didn’t exist at the beginning. I spent many hours explaining to people what exactly the downstate is and when they would receive skills for it.
Some changes, such as those to traits, I have always viewed critically. To be honest, I didn’t expect ArenaNet to turn things around and implement meaningful revisions.
However, since 2018, everything has changed.
Quality of Life in 2018: Almost all innovations regarding game systems in 2018 were celebrated enthusiastically by players. It all started with the glyph system in April. This created a unified system for gathering tools with bonus effects for the first time, something I had already demanded in a podcast.
I could hardly believe my luck, as ArenaNet was actually tackling many things I never thought would happen.
Quality of Life in 2019: This year there were even innovations and announcements I never expected. The adjustments to the loot system from March, which ensure that the inventory is no longer cluttered with gear, was already a significant bonus.
However, the developers captured my heart with the announcement of the build save system. This feature is not yet in the game but has been hotly debated since its release in 2012.
Why QoL changes are important: I am well aware that the listed changes do not win new players and that only a few veterans will cheerfully return to the MMORPG because of them.
Why have items such as pots and toys not been in the wardrobe for years? Why has underwater combat been so strictly ignored? These and many other questions were repeatedly raised by players.
If you want to bind players to a game long-term, it must also have some comfort functions and, above all, a unified system. And that is exactly what Guild Wars 2 has lacked for many years.
The right path: ArenaNet has taken the right path for me. Regular story episodes like now the Eternal War, additional content like fractals and raids, regular balance patches, and many adjustments to old systems.
In the first 5 months alone, there were 9 major updates for Guild Wars 2, including the mount Warclaw for WvW. But the journey is far from over. Important updates like the alliance system or build templates are still missing.
However, if ArenaNet continues to stay on track, then Guild Wars 2 has a long future ahead of it for me, especially because old systems are constantly being revised.
If you want to see something new in Guild Wars 2, you should definitely play the new map:
Dauntless celebrated its official release. It apparently attracted so many players that the servers can no longer handle the load. The developers are working on it, but fans still need to be patient.
There are even more expected. By the end of the year, Pheonix Labs aims to increase the numbers further. The developers want to attract up to 9 million players to the servers. The influx is already causing problems.
Too many players want to play.
Connection issues in Dauntless: Endless queues
Where do the queues come from? The reason for the queues is that the servers are simply “full”. They can no longer accommodate any more players. Therefore, Phoenix Labs had to implement a “one in, one out” policy. Every player who wanted to get in needed to take the spot of someone who left.
This is how long players have to wait: Some players reported sitting in the queues for over 3 hours.
Currently, the queue does not show a duration anymore. Instead, it displays how many players are still waiting in front of you in the queue. As of now (May 24 at 4:00 PM), there are no active queues.
The display of the queues. Image source: mmorpg.org.pl
This is what the developers are doing about it: The capacity for players who can play Dauntless simultaneously has already been increased. This should now allow more players to join the game at the same time.
However, there are still queues, and the developers have been working for days to manage the influx. The official Twitter account of Dauntless tweeted that work continues, capacities are being increased, and bugs and crashes are being fixed:

Previously, there were larger issues. In Dauntless players can hunt with friends, which is even supported by crossplay. However, the friend lists on PC, PS4, and Xbox One were empty for many players.
While the problem should be resolved by now, players must first log in to be able to play together. You can check the current status of the servers on the Dauntless status website.
In the future, Dauntless will even serve additional platforms:
