5 MMORPGs with classic servers that bring you back to the beginning

von Andreas Bertits

The popularity on Twitch is boosted by the fact that many streamers who have made a name for themselves with Fortnite have recently grown tired of the shooter. They are looking for new challenges and things with which they can entertain the fans. This leads them to Runescape.

Fortnite pro Tfue has also recently been seen in RuneScape, after qualifying for the World Cup in Fortnite.

Interestingly, the “old Runescape” is more popular than the new:

Runescape ranked 93rd on Twitch games in May 2019 (805,000 viewer hours) (via twitchmetrics)
Old Runescape ranked 26th in May 2019 with 5.1 million viewer hours.

Runescape is known for strange things happening. The Runescape community is considered unique and tough. This is something that the streamer Pokimane recently experienced.

Which class will you play in WoW Classic?

Cortyn 19. May 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

With the beta of World of Warcraft Classic, we want to know which class you want to play.

The beta of World of Warcraft Classic has started, and interest in the “Vanilla version” of the game is greater than ever before. We want to take this moment to learn a bit more about you and find out which classes are particularly popular among you and which playstyle you are looking forward to.

The classes in “Classic” differ drastically from what is offered in the current World of Warcraft. This is not necessarily “better or worse,” but in any case, different. A few fundamental differences are as follows:

Self-healing was a foreign concept: Unlike the current version of World of Warcraft, most classes did not have a solid form of self-healing (“Sustain” or “Self Heal”) – apart from the healer classes. But when a mage’s health points dropped, only a healing potion or first aid would help. This made it essential for most classes to take a regeneration break after each fight.

WoW Classic Class Guide: Advantages and Disadvantages of the 9 Classes

Special classes per faction: Another notable feature of Classic was that not all classes were available for both factions. While Horde and Alliance shared 7 of the playable classes, there was one class that was only available to its specific faction.

Horde players could become shamans
Alliance players could become paladins

Specialization was set in stone: Those who chose a specialization in Classic often stayed with it for several days, weeks, or months. The reason for this is that respecialization in Classic cost gold, and the costs continued to rise. Switching specializations “on a whim” was only possible for the wealthier players. You thought twice about whether you wanted to be a “Fire Mage” or a “Frost Mage.”

But now let’s talk about you! Which of the original 9 classes of World of Warcraft will be your main character in Classic? Which of these classes will you play?

The survey has now been closed and archived. You can find the results of the class survey for WoW Classic here.

If you have a little time left, please also share in the comments which class you primarily want to play – and above all, why. Is it the same class as in the current WoW?

GTA Online: Get 101,000$ in 1 minute – It’s that easy

Patrick Freese 19. May 2019 Reading time 3 minutes

In this time trial, you can easily earn 101,000 GTA$. The course couldn’t be simpler. Earn the money quickly in GTA Online while the race is active.

How do you win the money? For participating in this week’s time trial, there are again over 101,000 GTA dollars for your account. You can find and complete the race in the open world. The catch of the race is that time is tight. An accident can cost you the victory, depending on the car used.

Which time trial is active? This week, the time trial Route 68 is active. You can find it near Trevor’s airstrip. You have 1 minute and 19 seconds to complete the course.

How to win the “Route 68” race in GTA Online

The course route: This time trial is one of the easier competitions in GTA Online. You basically just follow a road, easing off the gas slightly in the corners, and then cross the finish line.

On the following map, you can see the route that you will take with the car for the race. The two exclamation marks indicate tighter sections of the course. You won’t need to brake hard.

This is how the drive goes: At the start, you position yourself facing west. This is the direction indicated by the arrow in the race area on the screen.

During the drive, there are no special curves or shortcuts that you need to take. The whole time, you follow the main road with your car. Occasionally, there are corners where you ease off the gas or skillfully dodge onto the hard shoulder.

A special feature is the finish line. It is the property of a gas station, which is off the main path. You follow an exit, speed through the gas station’s middle lane, and you are already at the finish line.

Can the race be repeated? Yes, you can participate in the race as many times as you want. However, the 101,000 GTA dollars are only available once. After that, you will only receive 2,000 dollars for each successfully completed race.

Which vehicles should you take? Grab the fast cars from your garage that have good handling. One of the best vehicles for this was the Batmobile, but this vehicle is no longer qualified for participation in time trials.

We recommend cars with a high top speed like the Pariah. We used it in testing and arrived at the finish line well ahead of time.

In general, cars with a high top speed are recommended. Handling and braking performance are not as important in this race.

Just check our list of the fastest cars in GTA Online and see which of the cars are in your garage.

What exotic weapons do you prefer to play in Destiny 2?

Sven Galitzki 19. May 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

Destiny 2 offers a wide variety of exotic weapons. But which of them are currently favored by the Guardians? Participate in our large MeinMMO survey.

What is currently happening in Destiny 2? In Destiny 2, Season 6 is slowly reaching its end. The eyes of many Guardians were keenly focused, some with anticipation, on Season 7, the Season of Opulence, which is set to begin on June 4th. However, this excitement has recently been dampened for many.

This is why Season 7 is currently being discussed controversially: With Season 7, not only new content is expected. As part of an update, some sandbox changes will be implemented at the start of the season, which are currently causing a lot of discontent and heated debates around Destiny 2.

Recently, Bungie provided a small preview of these changes. And that is what is causing the trouble. Because they are (so far) marked by nerfs to popular exotic weapons and armor pieces. Also, some of the best legendary weapons are affected and will be weakened.

This is how fans are reacting: While some fans, just like Bungie, point out that these nerfs are necessary to maintain the game’s balance, large parts of the community are upset and cannot understand these changes.

Many players are fed up. After all, Bungie had announced several times that they would no longer “hammer down protruding nails” in the form of strong exotics, but rather bring other weapons to the same level. Now Bungie is swinging the nerf hammer again and repeating mistakes from the past. Season 7 is already being referred to by many as the Season of the Nerf or the “Go Slow” update.

What is being widely read: Many Guardians are pointing out that Bungie should make the numerous “useless” exotics more appealing, which are simply gathering dust in many Guardians’ vaults or collections. Because many exotics are not utilized by the fans at all. Instead, the studio weakens some of the most popular exotic weapons and armor pieces.

Survey: What are currently your favorite exotic weapons?

Therefore the survey: In this context, we have prepared a large survey for you at MeinMMO. We want to know from you which exotic weapons you like to play the most. This way, we want to create an overview of which exotic firearms are currently popular among the Guardians and which are completely neglected.

What you should note for the survey: We will present each weapon class from Destiny 2 along with all its representatives. For each weapon class, you have one response option. We will then analyze and present the survey results in a follow-up article.

Thank you for your participation and your patience and time.

These are the 11 best exotic weapons of Destiny 2 in 2019

Pokémon GO: Community Day in May with Charmander has started – All information

Noah Struthoff 19. May 2019 Reading time 4 minutes

On Sunday, May 19, the Community Day in May featuring Chespin has started in Pokémon GO. Here you will find all the information about the start time, bonuses, and Shinies. We tell you what you need to know and when the event ends.

These are Community Days: Once a month, a Community Day takes place in Pokémon GO. During this time, event Pokémon spawn more frequently for 3 hours, and these Pokémon are available as Shiny for the first time. Various bonuses also round out the event.

In May 2019, it’s all about the Fire Starter Chespin. Additionally, there is a Stardust bonus and exclusive moves for Chesnaught.

Community Day in May 2019 – Information about the start time and bonuses

What: The Pokémon GO Community Day in May 2019
When: On Sunday, May 19, from 3 PM to 6 PM German time
Pokémon of the Day: Chespin
Exclusive Move: Frenzy Plant and Blast Burn (exclusive for Chesnaught)
Bonus: Triple Stardust for catching Pokémon
Bonus: 3-hour Lures
Additional Bonus: You can evolve Chespin into Chesnaught until 7 PM to learn the exclusive move Frenzy Plant

Please consider the times: For several months now, the Community Day has been running from 3 PM to 6 PM. The time zone does not matter. The event starts at 3 PM in every time zone.

Shiny Chespin, Quilladin, and Chesnaught

Is there Shiny Chespin? Niantic has already confirmed shiny Chespin for the Community Day. At each of the previous Community Days, the event Pokémon was also available as Shiny.

How rare is Shiny Chespin? During the event, Chespin can be found with an increased chance of being Shiny. The rate is about 1 in 25. So you have good chances for a Shiny.

Chesnaught with exclusive moves – How good is it?

These are the two moves: For the first time, a Pokémon can learn 2 new moves on Community Day. You can teach Chesnaught Frenzy Plant if you evolve it on Sunday between 3 PM and 7 PM. However, it does not work with TMs.

In addition, Chesnaught can learn another move through TMs. For the first time, it will master Blast Burn. However, this move may also still be available after the event. But there is no confirmation from Niantic.

What can the moves do? Both moves significantly strengthen Chesnaught and make it the best Fire Attacker in the game. So, it is worth getting a Chesnaught with the moves.

You can find a detailed analysis of the moves here: Chesnaught learns 2 moves on Community Day – Here’s how strong it will be

This is what your Chespin needs – 100% IV

Here Chespin has a weather bonus: Chespin is a Fire-type, which is boosted in sunny weather.

This is how strong Chespin is in the wild: Without a weather bonus, Chespin can reach a maximum of 937 CP in the wild. With a weather bonus, i.e., at level 35, it can even reach 1015 CP. So if you find a Chespin with over 1000 CP, it could be very strong.

Below we will provide you with a list of possible 100% IV Chespin. Copy this list into your search bar and you will see Chespin with potentially 100% IV. However, evaluate them afterwards, as they do not guarantee this IV.

255&wp15,wp48,wp81,wp114,wp147,wp180,wp213,wp246,wp279,wp312,wp343,wp375,wp406,wp437,wp468,wp500,wp531,wp562,wp593,wp624,wp656,wp687,wp718,wp750,wp781,wp812,wp843,wp875,wp906,wp937,wp953,wp968,wp984,wp1000,wp1015

Use these items on Community Day

Star Piece – 6 pieces
- The Star Pieces are the most important items on this Community Day. You will receive triple dust, and you can even multiply it with the item. Have 6 pieces ready, as one piece only lasts for 30 minutes. This way, you are covered for the 3 hours
Lures – 3 pieces or more
- The lures last for 3 hours during the event. It is worth igniting some, as you will attract even more Pokémon and generate more Stardust from them.
Incense – 6 pieces
- Not only the lures are worth it, but also incense. If you move around a lot, you will also attract plenty of Pokémon that will provide you with dust. Have 6 pieces ready, as they last only 30 minutes too.
Balls – 200 pieces or more
- Chespin will have a better catch rate than usual, yet it consumes a lot of balls. Collect especially Ultra Balls and Great Balls to catch the Fire Starter quickly.
GO Plus
- If you want to take a break from catching, use a GO Plus. This handy helper catches Pokémon for you at the push of a button.

PC players complete the raid of The Division 2 in under 30 minutes

Sven Galitzki 19. May 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

While the raid on consoles was mastered for the first time recently, agents on PC are currently beating one record after another. The best teams are now completing this activity from The Division 2 in well under 30 minutes.

Since May 16, the first raid Operation: Dark Hours has been live on all platforms in The Division 2. How fast are the best agents currently?

This is how the raid has developed on PC: Since the launch, agents have been getting faster and more effective in their raid runs. Therefore, world records are currently falling one after the other on PC.

While MarcoStyle and his team from the POG clan (Positive Gamers) still needed 5 hours 2 minutes for the World First, the world record until recently was just under half an hour. The German DUK community clan had already completed the raid in just 30 minutes and 9 seconds with his team on May 17.

This is the current world record time in the raid: Shortly thereafter, they had already mastered the raid without a wipe in 28 minutes. However, the guys continued to refine their performance and optimized their strategy for the final encounter yet again. Thus, on May 18, they outdid themselves and set a new world record: 23 minutes and 40 seconds!

Here you can watch this incredible run in the video:

https://youtu.be/2wgK329WYuw

The Division 2 Guide: Defeating Boomer – How to finally beat the 1st Raid Boss

This is how things currently look on consoles: The situation there is quite different. The raid was mastered for the first time by a team on PS4 yesterday, May 18 – in more than 36 hours on PS4.

The time difference between PC and consoles is enormous. While the best team on PC is almost at the 20-minute mark, the fastest raid on PS4 is at 19 hours and 47 minutes. On Xbox, the raid was completed in 17 hours and 26 minutes (World First on Xbox).

Players there are also finding better strategies, but they are worlds apart from the times currently being achieved on PC.

Why the difference? Console players are complaining on Reddit and other discussion platforms that the raid on PS4 and Xbox One is much more difficult due to controller handling than on PC with mouse and keyboard.

For an optimal strategy and good times, one must always hit precisely – whether it’s small weak points on bosses, the heads of regular enemies, or elite opponents. This is considerably harder on console than on PC. Some players also cite the lower frame rate as a reason for the poorer performance.

The raid itself, however, does not differ in its mechanics between the different platforms. Many players are already demanding improvements for the consoles from Massive.

What do you think? What do you believe is the reason for the big time difference between PC and consoles? Should Massive improve that in your opinion?

Dead by Daylight plans new nerfs – It hits killers and survivors

Cortyn 19. May 2019 Reading time 3 minutes

The developers of Dead by Daylight have some nerfs in mind. We will reveal what they want to change.

The balance of Dead by Daylight is in constant flux. Especially the perks in the game need to be altered and adjusted from time to time so that they are not too strong or too weak. Soon, two perks will be adjusted, which the developers consider too powerful. Killers will soon have to deal with more stuns, while survivors will have to do more to trigger one of the newest perks.

Nerfs to the killer perk Enduring: Killers will receive an adjustment to the Hillybilly perk Enduring (“Enduring”). Currently, the perk increases the stun regeneration rate by 75% – this applies to all stuns, not just from pallets, but also from Decisive Strike (“Decisive Strike”).

Enduring will be adjusted so that only the stun from pallets is reduced by 50% in duration. This is a bit stronger than it was before for pallets, but it will have no effect in all other situations. Survivors can thus always count on the full duration when it comes to Decisive Strike.

This killer from Dead by Daylight takes a selfie when he kills you

Nerfs to the survivor perk „Mettle of Man“: One perk has gained the most popularity since the introduction of survivor Ash Williams, and that is Mettle of Man (“Mettle of Man”). It has become a new “meta perk,” which many survivors are taking.

It provides a short “unhittable” effect when the killer has already hit a survivor three times. The fourth hit, if it would take the survivor down, is simply ignored.

The perk is currently seen as too strong, which is why the developers want to make adjustments. Currently, there is talk of changing the perk so that survivors have to take three “protective” hits for the perk to activate. They would have to block hits for other survivors who are currently being chased or taken to a hook.

Mettle of Man is so powerful that one should “put in some effort” to gain the benefit of the perk.

Sound issues and other bugs will be fixed: Apart from the balancing changes, the developers are also aware of some new bugs.

Some sound effects in the game are faulty. Once a hook has been “used,” it permanently emits the sound of the entity materializing at the hook.
Repairing a generator “in one go” gives no blood points. This will also be fixed.
Occasionally, there are no points for “protecting” another survivor.
Some windows are not correctly blocked by the killer perk “Bamboozle.”

Some of these changes may possibly go live with the next “hotfix” patch, which will be tested in a few days. Please note that these changes are not final and may still change.

What do you think of these adjustments to the perks? Are these good and sensible changes? Or is there again too hasty action being taken?

At the Overwatch anniversary, there is legendary loot just for logging in

Cortyn 19. May 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

Blizzard has announced the start of a popular event. In just a few days, the “Overwatch Anniversary” will start again, bringing new content.

Soon, it will be the 3rd anniversary of Overwatch and that has to be celebrated with an event. As in previous years, the “Anniversary” event of Overwatch will begin in just a few days, featuring new cosmetic items and also a free trial phase of the game.

When does the Anniversary take place? The Overwatch Anniversary 2019 begins on May 21 and lasts exactly three weeks. It ends on June 10, 2019.

Link to the Twitter content

What are the highlights of the event? The new emotes are the most eagerly awaited, as there will be at least three new heroes who currently do not have a dance (unlike all other characters). Blizzard will address this with the anniversary. Dance emotes will be available for the following characters:

Wrecking Ball (Hammond)
Ashe
Baptiste

Aside from that, there will be at least 9 new skins to earn. There will be 6 new legendary skins and 3 additional epic quality skins. Which characters will receive the skins is still unknown – only one is confirmed. D.Va will get a new skin that Jeff Kaplan claims will “destroy the internet.” Fans’ expectations are correspondingly high, and most theories suggest a K-Pop skin.

How exactly the skins or emotes will look is also still uncertain.

A legendary loot box is free: Anyone who logs into Overwatch during the anniversary will receive a very special loot box. This legendary loot box contains, as the name suggests, at least one item of legendary quality. Anyone looking to upgrade their collection cheaply should log in at least for this reward.

Play for free for a week: The Anniversary event is also the perfect time to bring friends and acquaintances into the game. In the first week of the anniversary (May 21 – May 28), Overwatch will be free to play on all platforms (PC, PS4, Xbox One). Earned rewards, such as account level, loot boxes, and achievements, can also be kept after the trial period if the game is purchased afterward.

Are you still diligently playing Overwatch? Do you no longer watch or only tune in for the events? Let us know in the comments.

WoW Classic: What it is and whether it is worth it for you

Benedict Grothaus 19. May 2019 Reading time 4 minutes

WoW Classic is about to launch, the beta has already started, and the version for all players will be released in summer 2019. Many are asking: What is Classic anyway? MeinMMO tries to explain the Classic version of World of Warcraft.

What is WoW Classic and when will it be released? WoW Classic is the original World of Warcraft, before there were expansions like Burning Crusade, Wrath of the Lich King, or the latest expansion Battle for Azeroth.

With Classic (also known as Vanilla), everything started for the MMORPG giant WoW in 2004, and the upcoming WoW Classic is intended to bring this version back for the fans to play. Core features include:

Maximum level 60
Limited content released in phases
Only 4 races per faction

Currently, the beta of Classic is running, which you can also sign up for to participate. The release of the Classic version will take place on August 27, 2019.

[toc]

This article aims to provide some assistance in gaining a better and critical view of Classic and decide whether it is worth it for you. To assess this, we draw on many years of experience with WoW and several facts.

Pros and Cons of Classic

Pro

Slower gameplay results in more depth
Expansive talent trees give classes more character
Good gear has a higher value as it is harder to obtain

Contra

Leveling, questing, traveling, and instances take longer and are often more dangerous
Conveniences like dungeon finder and level-scaling are missing
Respecing talents and learning new spells costs gold

There are also some things that some people would consider bad, while others might see them as good, such as:

Much more grind for gold, materials, and equipment
Larger raid sizes with up to 40 players
Restrictions in the class system (Paladins for Alliance, Shamans for Horde)

How is WoW Classic compared to Retail?

Classic, or Vanilla, is often compared to the current version of World of Warcraft (also known as “Retail”). Battle for Azeroth is the seventh addon of WoW, making the comparison increasingly difficult due to the innovations.

WoW Classic: What to Expect on a Vanilla Server?

von Benedict Grothaus

Nevertheless, there are some areas where the two versions can be objectively distinguished. This is particularly interesting for players who have never played WoW Classic or WoW before Cataclysm:

All Classic zones and dungeons were redesigned with Cataclysm. In Classic, quests and appearances in Westfall, Duskwood, Thousand Needles, and many other areas are very different.
The graphics are distinctly “older” in Classic. Character models have received updates over the years. Everything in Classic is a bit “blockier”.
Many names retain their English originals in Classic, such as Stormwind City or Ironforge. The German names were introduced later.
Some classes have no quests in Classic, except to distribute buffs. The balancing for Classic was simply different than it is today.
Many spells and abilities required expensive reagents at times. Without ammunition, runes, or powders, many classes cannot use their skills in Classic. Furthermore, they are calculated slower.
It is important how you attack. Physical attacks require weapon training, while elemental attacks can be mitigated or completely blocked by resistances.

The differences are not necessarily good or bad. They simply show that Classic and Retail target different audiences in many aspects.

WoW Thrall new Modell title 1140x445 — The orc Thrall has even received multiple updates.

That’s why people celebrate Classic

Despite the lack of conveniences that Retail brings, many people celebrate Classic, and the phrase “Everything was better back then” frequently comes up. Fans want to play Classic, as they impressively demonstrated with 100,000 viewers during a dungeon run.

Fans also have several reasons to be excited about WoW Classic:

Social interaction is more important because many things only work in groups
The reputation of the individual player on the server matters. No one takes ninja looters
Classic was “the original WoW” and fans want to experience nostalgia
Many players want to relive the game they first immersed themselves in Azeroth
Classic offers a greater challenge because characters are simply weaker

5 great things in WoW that are returning with Classic

The reasons are of course all subjective, but many of them repeatedly appear in forums, on reddit, or here in comments on MeinMMO. The hype is already causing WoW to temporarily stand at number 1 on Twitch.

WoW Classic is right for you if …

… you have played and loved Classic
… you like WoW, but struggle with the new addons
… you have never played WoW and want to invest a lot of time in an “old” MMORPG
… you want to struggle against normal opponents while leveling

WoW Classic is not right for you if …

… you celebrate all aspects of BfA and Legion and just like WoW
… you find the talent system of Battle for Azeroth complex enough or too complicated
… you want to play goblins, worgen, pandaren, draenei, blood elves, or allied races
… you get annoyed by leveling and grinding

5 things that will drive you crazy in WoW: Classic again

WoW Classic broadly appeals to a different audience than Battle for Azeroth does. Many players will still enjoy and want to play both games, as they simply offer different experiences.

Our tips give you just a preliminary impression of whether you should even be interested in the development of WoW or if you are missing nothing. The decision on whether you play it is up to you, and since WoW Classic is played with the regular subscription of World of Warcraft, you can also just test it for yourself anytime after the release.

Cortyn made some mistakes back then from which you can learn when you play:

Where exactly you need to search, we will show you here on the Season 9 map:

Fortbyte 8: Can be found in Junk Junction

Here you need to search: Junk Junction is not exactly small, which means there are numerous places to hide. Epic hid this Fortbyte in a large garage in the east of the location.

Go through the half-open garage into the building and then around the corner. Behind a bed, which can be found there, hides Fortbyte number 8.

Use this video: To ensure you don’t have any problems finding it, we are embedding a video here. You will see the exact location of the Fortbyte.

Pokémon GO: With this trick, you can collect a lot of Stardust today on Community Day

Noah Struthoff 19. May 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

Today, on May 19, the Community Day of Pokémon GO begins. Players are now confirming a trick to attract many Pokémon during the event.

What is this trick? You need to use the new Lures. These modules attract twice as many Pokémon as the regular modules. This is especially worthwhile during today’s triple Stardust event.

As players from New Zealand, where the Community Day has already taken place, report, these new Lures also last for 3 hours. Until now, confirmation was missing.

That’s why the new Lures are particularly valuable today

Here’s why more Pokémon are good: More Pokémon also mean more Stardust. If you play especially with Lures, you have the chance to encounter twice as many Pokémon as before.

This is the advantage of the new modules: With the new Lures, you will also frequently attract evolutions. The evolutions bring in more Stardust. Today, you can collect even more Stardust.

This is the disadvantage of the new modules: The special Lures also come with a drawback. They attract fewer Flemmli and rather Pokémon of the respective module type.

So if you’re mainly hunting for Shiny Pokémon and not that interested in collecting Stardust, you should continue using the regular modules. There are significantly more Flemmli available there.

Here, the new modules are really worth it: If you play in a location that already has many spawn points, you should use the new modules. The regular spawn points bring Flemmli, and the modules lure in significantly more Pokémon for the Stardust.

So sammelt Ihr leicht viel Sternenstaub in Pokémon GO

Village players can benefit: Players in villages with fewer PokéStops and spawns should benefit from the new modules. You could activate the new modules at your few Stops and attract twice as many Pokémon.

The old Lures only bring a Pokémon every 180 seconds. The new Lures attract a Pokémon every 90 seconds.

Finally: Raid from The Division 2 has now been cracked for the first time on PS4

Sven Galitzki 19. May 2019 Reading time 3 minutes

In The Division 2, the raid Operation: Dark Hours was first mastered on PC just a few hours after release. Now a team has finally succeeded on console – in more than 7 times the time!

Since May 16, agents in The Division 2 can dive into a new top activity – the 8-man raid Operation: Dark Hours. However, the raid has taken a different course depending on the platform since launch.

Here’s how the raid started on PC: On PC, the raid was cracked by a team just over 5 hours after its release.

The World First title was secured by a group from the POG clan (Positive Gamers) led by the well-known YouTuber and Division expert MarcoStyle. Agents can now look forward to a cool commemoration in the Operations Base of The Division 2.

Meanwhile, some agents are already running the raid on PC in under 30 minutes:

PC players complete the raid of The Division 2 in under 30 minutes

Here’s how the raid started on consoles: On the PS4 and Xbox One platforms, it looked a bit different. Until recently, no team had managed to crack the raid. Many agents reportedly struggled with the first boss Boomer.

Many complained that the raid on consoles was harder to master with a gamepad and lower frame rate. Some even urged the developers to demonstrate in a stream how they play the raid on consoles.

But finally, a team on PS4 has managed to complete the raid for the first time.

Here’s how the World First went on consoles: The first console team to crack the first raid of The Division 2 was a group from the PS4 clan TNT – nearly 57 hours after launch!

That it runs somewhat differently on consoles than on PC is underscored by their time. The group took a total of a whopping 36 hours and 42 minutes of gameplay (including breaks, not continuously) before finally defeating the raid.

That is more than 7 times the time that the fastest team on PC needed for this achievement. Nearly 20 hours of that alone went to the final boss of the raid.

This is what the fans are saying: On Reddit, the guys from TNT are being celebrated heavily for the World First on consoles. Many fans say it’s far more impressive than the World First on PC.

Numerous users are calling for Massive to give this group their own picture in the White House. Some jokingly mention that the group should now equip themselves with the Xbox to finally get a World First clear there as well.

But due to the large difference in time, some users also point out that it is obvious that Massive still needs to make some adjustments for the raid on consoles. 5 and 36 hours speak a clear language.

That’s why Fortnite achieved great success again with John Wick

Jürgen Horn 19. May 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

In Fortnite: Battle Royale features the John Wick mode online, and it is very well received by fans. Learn here why Epic’s latest crossover rocks.

What is the Wick mode about? From May 16 to 21, 2019, you can play a special event called “Wick’s Bounty” in Fortnite. The goal is to be the first team to collect 500 coins, which you earn by eliminating other players.

In addition, you will also receive the coins of your victim. Everyone starts with weapons and has two respawns. Particularly successful players are displayed on the map and are thus considered particularly good loot.

How well is the new mode Wick’s Bounty received

This is what fans say: Many Fortnite players are enjoying the new mode. Wick’s Bounty promises fun and fast-paced action. Since you always get the coins from your victims, even beginners and casual players can quickly achieve success.

Thus, many fans are raving on Reddit (1, 2) about the Wick mode:

“I think the mechanics and gameplay of the new mode are great.”
“Wick’s Bounty should become a permanent game mode!”
“The two starting weapons, the three lives, and the hunt for numbers 1, 2, and 3, as well as the usual battle royale feeling, is just a crazy mix of game modes!”
“The feeling of security when I start with an SMG and a shotgun is simply unmatched.”
“I love it, it’s so intense and fun!”

This is how the new skins are received: The skins from the event in the shop also caused some excitement in the community. Many love the Wick skins from the shop. Especially the emote where you brush bullets off your clothes has garnered many fans.

Additionally, players like the fact that in the Wick mode, every skin wears a suit, but the heads of the original skins are still visible. This way, even silly skins like Fishsticks achieve fame as killers.

What bothers some players about Wick

However, there are some players who resent Epic for allowing a real Wick to be purchased now. After all, there was the pseudo-Wick “Grim Reaper” exclusively in Season 3, and some veterans now feel cheated.

On Twitter, a player complains:

“This John Wick in the shop is a big “no” to anyone who believed in the game during Season 3. Thank you, Epic Games, you won’t be getting any money from me anymore!”

This is the criticism of the Wick mode: Skins are not the only issue; some players on Reddit have their problems with the new mode. You would most likely win if you did nothing for most of the time and then sneakily eliminated the last players at the end. One player summarizes it as follows:

“Players should not be punished for being good at the game!”

What do you think about the Wick event? Is it fun or just a silly shootout for noobs?

Here is someone who has completed ESO 99% – This is how long it took him

Jürgen Horn 19. May 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

The MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) offers an extremely vast amount of content. It takes a significant amount of time to experience it all. One player, however, has completed nearly the entire game and invested a lot of time.

In ESO, you can explore a massive online world and spend countless hours there. Especially if you want to experience and complete all the content the game has to offer. Two players have recently done just that and posted screenshots as proof.

One of them, the player HipsterGandalf42 from Germany, described in detail what he did and how long it took – specifically, he described it and a friend of his posted it in the forum (via ESO Forum).

Thousands of Hours of Effort

This is everything a player has done in ESO: Overall, HipsterGandalf42 has completed the following actions:

Bought all houses, but not those from the cash shop
Learned all crafting motifs, recipes, and plans
Learned all skills with morphs
Acquired all collectibles since April 2017
Found all crafting stations
Located all lore books, sky shards, mundus stones, dyes, etc.
Fully collected 4 complete seasons of loot boxes
Finished all achievements
Completed all quests in the game
Maxed out all guilds
Cleared all dungeons

How long did it take him? HipsterGandalf42 presumably invested over 5,000 hours in all these tasks. That corresponds to about 200 full days spent in Tamriel.

Why did he do it? Because he can!

Is anything missing? Indeed, there are still a few small things left. He still needs a few points for the Honor Guard outfit, which, however, was not available in the game at the time of this article. He intends to catch up on that soon. In addition, he still lacks 5 outfits from the battlegrounds that he has not completely grinded through yet.

And then he wants to have all houses from the cash shop. Ideally, when they can be traded among players.

Who else has achieved this? Besides HipsterGandalf42, we also know of a player from England named ScottOfLibertalia, who has also achieved all achievements in the game (though not all other collectibles).

There might be more players who have achieved such success in ESO, but it shouldn’t be many given the abundance of content in ESO.

The Division 2: Sales figures below expectations on PS4, Xbox One

Schuhmann 19. May 2019 Reading time 3 minutes

The new online shooter The Division 2 appears in Ubisoft’s new business report. However, there are confusing signals. While the game ran 10 times better on Uplay, the PC platform, than The Division 1 – the results on PS4 and Xbox One fell short of expectations, according to Ubisoft.

This is what Ubisoft says: In the official financial report for the 2018/2019 fiscal year, The Division 2 only has positive mentions. It states that the title has reached “record heights” for player engagement and the Season Pass.

Furthermore, The Division 2 achieved 10 times more sales on Uplay than The Division 1.

So it sounds like everything is great. This also corresponds to some reports from market researchers from March 2019. At that time, the title was considered the most successful game on PS4 and Xbox One.

Below expectations on consoles

What’s the catch? Alongside the business report, there are also analysts’ questions and the responses from those responsible.

As Venturebeat reports, Ubisoft’s CFO Frederick Dugeut stated that The Division 2 has fallen short of expectations on consoles, namely on PS4 and Xbox One.

This is partly due to the “fierce competition in the market.”

Dugeut believes that the first update with the raid promises improvement. Ubisoft likely expects a lot from it.

The Division 2 has more pre-orders on PC than its predecessor – Why?

von Tarek Zehrer

Why does The Division 2 run so much better on PC than on PS4 and Xbox One?

This is what’s behind it: After the news, one is left with mixed feelings and questions:

There were already reports that The Division 2 sells well on PC due to pre-orders – evidently, this is a strong PC title or at least a significantly stronger PC title than The Division 1. But why?
Why has the title fallen short of expectations on PS4 and Xbox One? Was the advertising campaign too focused on “veterans” of The Division 1 and failed to convince many new players? Or were the expectations too high?
Could the “10 times better” trends on Uplay perhaps simply be due to the fact that The Division 2 did not launch on Steam and the PC numbers are not “strong” in absolute terms?
Who does Ubisoft mean by “fierce competition”? Is Anthem being referred to, or rather titles like Fortnite or Apex Legends?
And how well has the title actually sold overall? 10 times more sales on Uplay compared to The Division 1 sounds good at first, but we don’t know how it exactly performed for the first title and how well it ran on Uplay.

After the financial report, there are certainly more doubts than before.

Ubisoft’s hope for the first raid could be disappointed

Here’s an additional problem: The CFO’s hope that the first update will perform very well can currently be doubted. There are strong reactions against the announcement that the first raid of The Division 2 will come without matchmaking.

A visible upswing, as planned by the CFO, is currently absent – the mood seems to be tipping rather negatively.

Fan calculates level curve of Borderlands 3 – Even Gearbox is impressed

Cortyn 19. May 2019 Reading time 3 minutes

Even before the release of Borderlands 3, a player calculated how quickly the characters improve. This also reveals how long weapons remain useful: Shorter than in Borderlands 1 and longer than Borderlands 2.

Borderlands 3 is not yet released, but fans are eager for new information and are working with what has been published regarding gameplay so far.

In the shooter’s subreddit, a user claims to have calculated the HP curve at which players’ health points increase. This allows for conclusions about how long weapons can be used before they become obsolete or unusable.

Because in previous parts, weapon damage also increased parallel to health points, as any math friend knows.

borderlands2-figuren-handsome-jack title

Why this is important: This may sound like mathematical trivialities, but ultimately it determines how the game feels, whether you frequently swap weapons or keep them for a long time.

So it was in the past: This level curve has changed drastically in Borderlands.

In Borderlands 1, HP increased “linearly” by the absolute value of 15 per level. Therefore, players could stick with a “low-level” weapon for a long time. The higher weapons were hardly stronger.
In Borderlands 2, however, HP increased by 13%. Here, weapons became obsolete very quickly and needed to be replaced often. A “good item” found early had hardly any value.

Reddit user analyzes massive gameplay: Reddit user SirArkhon has reviewed all available gameplay material and compared players’ levels with their HP values. From this, he was able to create a formula that Borderlands 3 apparently uses to calculate how much the health points increase per level-up.

This, in turn, could also be an indication of how quickly weapons become “weaker,” simply because they become unusable due to too high a player level and enemies become too powerful.

This is the formula: According to his calculations, user SirArkhon arrives at the formula “HP = 80 x 1.09^Level”, and all decimal places simply drop off.

For the health points of a character in Borderlands 3, this would mean, corresponding to the respective level:

Level 1: 87 HP
Level 2: 95 HP
Level 10: 189 HP
Level 25: 689 HP
Level 72: 39,609 HP

These are the findings: SirArkhon concludes from these numbers that weapons in Borderlands 3 will be approximately 40% longer useful than in Borderlands 2 before they need to be replaced by new guns.

He infers this because it took an average of 5.7 levels in Borderlands 2 to double a character’s stats. In Borderlands 3, this takes nearly 8 levels – about 40% longer.

The development of enemies in Borderlands (i.e., how much damage they can take) has always been in accordance. Therefore, it can be said that weapons will likely remain useful longer before they need to be replaced, as the enemies have become too resilient.

This is how Gearbox reacts However, these values should be taken with caution. After all, the HP curve is not final yet, and much of what has been shown was likely specifically tuned for the gameplay sessions of the streamers. The final result in September may therefore differ.

This has also been confirmed by Gearbox, who told the colleagues at IGN:

“The dedication and passion of our fans always amazes us! However, it must be noted that the game is still in development and the level progression and scaling are not final yet. But we will reveal much more about this in the time between now and the launch.”

It at least seems that Gearbox took the criticism of Borderlands 1 and 2 to heart and is accordingly adjusting the level curves.

So bleibt Ihr bei Borderlands 3 auf dem Laufenden: Wenn Ihr keine News über den neuen Shooter von Gearbox verpassen wollt, folgt doch unserer speziellen Facebook-Seite mit 100% News zu Borderlands 3.

Do you think it’s good if Borderlands 3 finds a middle ground between part 1 and part 2? Or did you particularly like the loot and level system in one of the parts and should it be adopted?

Call of Duty 2020 is allegedly Black Ops 5 – After development crisis

Schuhmann 18. May 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

According to new reports from the US site Kotaku, the next Call of Duty, which is set to release in 2020, will now be Black Ops 5 and will be available for PS4, Xbox One, PS5, and the next Xbox. The plan has been changed due to development problems.

Where does the information come from? The information comes from the US site Kotaku, which was apparently working on an “insider report” about Activision Blizzard and has stumbled upon new information in the research that it wanted to publish immediately.

In the article, the author relies on sources who wish to remain anonymous but are familiar with the matter.

The author behind the story, Jason Schreier, is known for having insights into large US studios and has frequently reported on Activision studios. For example, there were already reports prior to the layoffs at Activision Blizzard or about the development history of Destiny.

Sledgehammer Studio in Crisis

This was the original plan: Normally, Activision Blizzard has a rotation for Call of Duty. They have three studios that take turns developing a new Call of Duty each year.

It is said that Call of Duty 2020 was supposed to be developed by Sledgehammer. They were to work with the “Raven” studio from Wisconsin, who were also supposed to take a lead role in the game.

The two studios want to develop a Call of Duty set during the Cold War.

However, there were supposed to be difficulties between Sledgehammer and Raven. They reportedly often argued about the direction of the development last year.

Kotaku reports that two sources described Call of Duty 2020 as a “mess,” meaning a disaster.

Additionally, two founders left Sledgehammer. The studio has lost several developers in recent months, which has affected the morale of the remaining developers.

This is the new plan: Activision has now reportedly given control of Call of Duty 2020 to the Treyarch studio (Black Ops 4). Sledgehammer and Raven are supposed to support them.

They are supposed to reshape their work on the single-player campaign of the previous game into the campaign for Black Ops 5. The campaign is also to take place during the Cold War.

Call of Duty Black Ops 4 was criticized for lacking a campaign.

It is said that Black Ops 5 will likely come for the new console generation and is expected in the fall of 2020.

This is also interesting: Allegedly, Black Ops 4 did not sell as well as initially thought. Despite a strong start, things did not go as well as the “bean counters at Activision” had expected.

Therefore, Activision is now considering switching to a free-to-play model. This is also being considered for a mode in Modern Warfare 4, which is set to release this year. However, they are still unsure about this.

Warframe fires moderator for spoilers, but it wasn’t about Game of Thrones

Irina Moritz 18. May 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

The community of Warframe is currently celebrating the dismissal of a moderator. He spoiled the story of the best quest in the game for new players.

What’s happening in Warframe right now? One of the moderators of Warframe publicly admitted on his Twitter that he deliberately spoils the story of the game for newcomers.

This caused a significant uproar in the official Warframe subreddit. Some users demanded that the developer Digital Extremes take action against such poor behavior from a moderator.

Others, on the other hand, were resigned and said that this moderator issue would be ignored just like the previous ones.

Why did he spoil the story? The moderator’s justification for his behavior was given in a tweet:

“Whenever I see a new player being dragged to Hydron by their friends, I spoil [the story of] “Second Dream” in the chat. If you drag your friends to Hydron (which actually comes after Second Dream), you’re ruining the game for them”
Former Warframe moderator

Hydron is a mission on the dwarf planet Sedna in Warframe. It is an endless defense mission where players can farm materials.

This tweet and the allegedly self-righteous behavior of the moderator were not well received by the community, because story spoilers in Warframe are a very serious matter and are not tolerated.

This is why this quest is so important: While spoilers are generally not well received in Warframe, the story of the quest “Second Dream” is particularly bad when spoiled.

Second Dream is considered one of the best quests in the game by Warframe players and brings a lot of excitement and goosebumps. That’s why the reaction to these spoilers was even more drastic.

Second Dream – This quest has changed the way I see Warframe

This is how the developers reacted: In response to the community’s outrage, the developer Digital Extremes fired the moderator.

This is how the community reacted: The dismissal of the moderator is being celebrated strongly in the Warframe community. On Reddit, the thread has over 7,000 upvotes, which is quite a lot for a relatively small subreddit like Warframe.

The user YCarmello commented: “But I’m really glad about it. It seems Digital Extremes finally grew a backbone.”

This user refers to past incidents with moderators that went relatively unpunished. The reactions to the dismissal of the spoiler moderator were therefore exceptionally positive.

The update of Warframe is so big that I don’t know where to start

Pokémon GO: Dust, Balls and Potions – How rare are the items from gifts

Noah Struthoff 18. May 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

In June 2018, gifts were introduced in Pokémon GO and since then, research has been conducted on how often certain items can be found. We have prepared the list for you.

This analysis is about: The analysts from TheSilphRoad opened over 150,000 gifts and noted what they received. From that, they created a chart.

From this, you can see what is most commonly found in gifts and which items you can only obtain by luck. Additionally, a few other things have been noted.

These items are in the gifts

What you need to know: In each gift, you receive 3 bundles of items. You can also receive the same bundle three times.

In the following table, we show you which bundles exist and how likely you are to receive them:

Item Bundle	Probability
100 Stardust	34.6%
2x Great Ball	11.2 %
1x Ultra Ball	10.9%
3x Poké Ball	10.8%
2x Razz Berry	8.4%
1x Max Potion	7.1%
1x Max Revive	6.9%
1x Hyper Potion	4.2%
1x Revive	2.8%
1x Super Potion	1.4%
1x Potion	1.4%
1x Metal Coat	0.08%
1x King’s Rock	0.07%

What about eggs? You can also receive a 7KM egg from the gifts. However, you will only receive it if you have an egg slot and a slot free in your Pokémon box.

The egg counts just like any other bundle. So if you receive an egg, you will only get 2 additional bundles from the gifts.

If you meet all the criteria for an egg, two-thirds of all gifts will give you an egg.

The most common item: By far, you receive Stardust most frequently from the gifts. According to probability, there are on average 104 Stardust contained in each gift.

Per day, you can open 20 gifts, which means you can receive 2000 Stardust daily according to probability. It is worth it.

So sammelt Ihr leicht viel Sternenstaub in Pokémon GO

This is interesting about evolution items: From the gifts, you can only receive the Metal Coat or the King’s Rock. All other evolution items are not available.

Additionally, these items are by far the rarest to obtain from the gifts.

Does the friendship level influence the items? It does not matter what level you are with your friend, the items remain equally rare. You will not receive better items just because you have a higher friendship level.

Niantic has changed the spawn points. We will tell you what it means for you:

That’s why it’s worth rediscovering your city in Pokémon GO
