Everything the image tells us about the GO Fest in Pokémon GO

Noah Struthoff 7. April 2019 Reading time 5 minutes

Pokémon GO has announced the summer events and also released an image showcasing many interesting Pokémon. We will show you what the image reveals.

What kind of image is this? This image was designed for the GO Fest in Chicago. It shows all the elements important for the event in the USA.

Many of these Pokémon could also be interesting for German players and hint at the GO Fest in Dortmund.

This is what the GO Fest image shows

This is the image: Generally, the image is a huge collage. Pokémon are hiding everywhere, and they could also be interesting for German players. We will go through Pokémon for you, Pokémon by Pokémon.

This is important: Much of this is based on player theories or experiences from last summer. So not everything has to happen as speculated here.

Quiekel, Keifel and Mamutel

What do the Pokémon suggest? This Pokémon family is actually nothing special. There was already a Quiekel community day, and the Shiny is also in the game.

The snow surrounding the Pokémon is a bit suspicious. At the GO Fest 2018, there was a small snow world where Ice-type Pokémon appeared more frequently. This could repeat in 2019.

This means for Dortmund: If Niantic plans another snow world for Chicago, then Dortmund could look similar. Perhaps there will also be some biomes artificially created by Niantic.

Pachirisu

What does the Pokémon suggest? This regional Pokémon will probably be catchable in Chicago. Normally, Pachirisu is only found in the northern regions of North America and Russia. For the GO Fest, it will likely come to Chicago.

This means for Dortmund: Safari zones and the GO Fest especially thrive on their regional Pokémon. In 2018, Corasonn could be caught in Dortmund.

Pachirisu is now announced for Chicago. One can therefore assume that Dortmund will also receive a regional Pokémon. Possibly also from the 4th generation. This could be Plaudagei or Venuflibis.

Icognito

What does the Pokémon suggest? The exclamation mark Icognito indicates that the rare Icognito can also be caught at this year’s GO Fest. This was already the case during the summer events 2018.

This means for Dortmund: At the GO Fest in Dortmund, there will probably be Icognito again. Whether it will be the exclamation mark remains to be seen. At the last event, the letters from the word “Dortmund” were used.

Hippopotas

What does the Pokémon suggest? This Pokémon from the 4th generation is likely to be the biggest surprise. The creature is not in the game yet.

Whether it can be found worldwide before the event, and will appear more frequently during the GO Fest, remains to be seen. Possibly the Pokémon will also be exclusive to the event in Chicago.

This means for Dortmund: If the Pokémon can only be caught at the GO Fest, then Dortmund could also receive this exclusive Pokémon. Otherwise, the spawn rate could also be increased here.

Perhaps Dortmund will get another new Pokémon as well. This will be revealed over time.

Seeper

What does the Pokémon suggest? Seeper is also somewhat surprising in the image. It and its evolutions are not particularly interesting in the meta.

One can therefore assume that this might be the Shiny for the GO Fest. Last year, Plusle and Minun were released as Shiny in Chicago. Afterwards, these Pokémon could be caught worldwide.

This means for Dortmund: If Seeper is released as Shiny, then Dortmund should also have a similar Shiny. What it will be is still uncertain.

In general, Seeper could become interesting for players worldwide because Plusle and Minun were frequently found as Shiny worldwide last year. This might also be the case for Seeper.

Alpollo

What does the Pokémon suggest? Alpollo poses the most riddles. While its pre-evolution Nebulak can be caught as Shiny, it is not clear why Alpollo is visible there.

Perhaps the ghost Pokémon will simply be found more frequently in Chicago for no reason.

This means for Dortmund: If both Alpollo and its pre-evolution can be encountered more frequently, then there is also a good chance to get Shiny Nebulak.

Such a Pokémon could also appear more frequently in Dortmund. For example, in 2018, it was Aerodactyl that frequently appeared as Shiny.

Trasla

What does the Pokémon suggest? Trasla is indeed a rare Pokémon. It is quite possible that it will be encountered more frequently in Chicago.

It is also a hot candidate for a Community Day. It is possible that the Shiny will be introduced by then.

This means for Dortmund: At such events, there are always rare Pokémon to catch. Thus, Trasla might also appear more frequently. Other rare Pokémon, such as Kindwurm or Larvitar could also appear more often.

Chelast

What does the Pokémon suggest? Here it could be similar to Mamutel. All around Chelast are flowers. So it may indicate not only a snow area but also a plant area with particularly many plant-type Pokémon.

This means for Dortmund: This could also mean additional biomes for Dortmund. One can easily imagine walking through the Westfalenpark and wandering from biome to biome.

What do you think about the GO Fest in Dortmund? Are there any other clues that the image could reveal?

By August, the Community Days have also been announced:

In the case of Borderlands 2, it shows how Steam deals with “Review Bombing”

Cortyn 7. April 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

On Steam, negative reviews have been pouring in for the Borderlands games. These reviews are now treated separately. Steam aims to avoid “Off Topic” reviews.

A few days ago, negative reviews flooded Steam for the Borderlands series. The trigger was the announcement that Borderlands 3 would initially only be available on the Epic Games Store for PC. The negative reviews affected the overall rating of the Borderlands series. This has now been successfully addressed, as Steam is filtering out such “false” reviews.

Why was this step so important? The visible rating on Steam is an important criterion for potential customers. On each shop page of a game, Steam users can see how many players have rated a game as “positive” or “negative.” To teach developers or publishers a lesson regarding controversial marketing decisions, fans manipulate the ratings negatively.

How does the system work? Steam now automatically recognizes “unusual” review activity. So if hundreds of negative reviews for a game that has previously been rated very well appear in a particularly short time frame, Valve is notified. The developers can then remove these “Off Topic” reviews from the overall rating.

The reviews are not deleted: However, the negative reviews that are unrelated to the game are not completely deleted. They can still be viewed but are now in the “Off Topic” category. Thus, they no longer influence the rating of a game. Anyone who wants to can still check these reviews to form an opinion.

Borderlands 3 was not the trigger: However, it must be noted that Steam announced some time ago that it would take action against “review-bombing.” The fact that the changes to the system coincide with the drama surrounding Borderlands 3 seems to be coincidental. Other games will also benefit from this system from now on, filtering out unjustified reviews that have nothing to do with the game itself.

In Fortnite there is the next excavation site – That’s why players are digging again

Noah Struthoff 7. April 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

In Fortnite, a new excavation site has been discovered. Currently, diligent players are working to unveil the mystery behind this site.

What kind of excavation site is this? This is already the 3rd site discovered within just a few days. The excavation site is located east of Loot Lake.

Currently, numerous players are working to excavate the site and uncover the secrets beneath.

Why is digging happening again? Epic remains tight-lipped about the purpose of these excavation sites. However, players are hoping for something significant beneath the rocks. So far, nothing is known.

What is known about the new excavation site

Where exactly is the location? To assist with the excavations, you need to search east of Loot Lake. There, next to a wall, is a large pit where you can dig properly.

Our map shows you the exact location so you can join in:

Here you can find the new excavation site

What is under the excavation site? So far, nothing has been uncovered. Players still need to mine millions of materials for the excavation site to be revealed.

We will keep you updated on the status here and will update this post.

Update 7:20 PM: So far, half a container and an ice machine have been found. The rocks are diminishing, and more and more things are coming to light.

Update April 8 at 9:00 AM: The excavation site has been dug up! At the bottom of the site, a strange metal floor has been found, which may be hiding something beneath it. So far, nothing has happened with it.

What is behind the excavation sites: This is already the 3rd location in just a few days where digging must be done so diligently. Players found a dinosaur skeleton and a teddy bear at the 1st location. At the 2nd location, many players were trolled, as Fortnite had the location running full of lava, destroying a good loot spot.

What exactly is intended with this is unknown. Epic has so far remained tight-lipped about these excavation sites. Some players suspect it has to do with the new season and possibly also with the legendary skin from Season 8, which was recently introduced. But this is only theory for now.

How can I follow all this? We have included a livestream below that shows the current progress at the excavation site. The EP of the large stones is decreasing rapidly.

How much do you pay for weapons in Destiny 2 if you want to buy them illegally?

Micha Deckert 7. April 2019 Reading time 3 minutes

In Destiny 2, there are many weapons that players must work hard for. “Carry services” and individual players profit from this and want to sell Guardians guaranteed access to the items – for real money. However, these practices are highly frowned upon in the community.

What should one pay for? In Destiny 2, there are some popular weapons that players can earn either through enormous achievements in PvP or tedious quests.

So-called “carry” or “boosting services” take advantage of this situation: they promise players access to activities or take over the entire steps to the item – for the right price.

If players want to use one of these services, they sometimes have to dig deep into their pockets.

The Gambit pinnacle weapon 21% Delirium.

We advise against using services: This article is only for information to take a curious look at this practice.

We strongly advise you to refrain from using such services.

“Boosting,” that is, sharing your account information with third parties who play your characters in your place, violates the terms of use of Battle.net, Xbox Live, and PlayStation Network.

The use of paid “carries,” that is, one or more players who take you through PvP or other PvE activities, is not well received in the community.

You would only deprive yourself of the fun of paying other people to play a game for you.

What is the Luna’s Howl worth if it is not earned but purchased?

destiny-2-raid-letzter-wunsch — Some services and players take you through raids – for the right payment.

How much does it cost? There are some websites that offer players “boosting” or “recoveries.” Players pay certain amounts to the services so that so-called pro gamers then log in to their accounts and do the unwanted grind for the best weapons or activities for them.

Depending on whether players want to skip a certain quest step or the entire procedure, the price also increases:

One site offers Not Forgotten between $230 and $500.
The exotic sniper Izanagi’s Burden costs $300.
The Forsaken raid Last Wish costs up to $120.

In addition to services where strangers log into one’s own account, there are also “carries” where buyers are taken through PvP or raids by supposedly experienced players.

Destiny: 100 dollars for a trip to Mercury – What does the Trials chief think about it?

von Schuhmann

Players complain that such practices have increasingly spread to LFG sites, where they seek groups to play together.

destiny 2 riven — Players find it increasingly difficult to find teammates for raids and other activities on LFG sites that do not want to be paid for it.

This is what players say: In the Destiny subreddit and in the Bungie forum, Guardians have long been speaking out against such services. Especially Crucible players complain: they may come together in matchmaking with accounts of players who normally demonstrate about the same skill levels, but these then get taken over by pro players.

As they would supposedly have a higher chance of winning, honest players would thus be at a disadvantage.

Even in PvE, the negative aspects of paid services would become apparent. For Guardians, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find teammates for activities on LFG sites that do not want to be paid for it.

Alleged boosting also proved fateful for this player:

After Teabagging, Overwatch pro xQc takes revenge – and it’s grand

Cortyn 7. April 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

The Overwatch streamer xQc was able to prove how wonderfully sweet revenge can be. After a teabagging action, there is a great comeback.

Felix Lengyel, better known in the Overwatch scene as xQc, is considered one of the best players in the world. On Twitch, he entertains his fans with high-quality Overwatch matches and also with his very “lively” behavior in front of the camera. He easily gets upset and often lets his frustration out with explosive reactions.

This happened again in a match and led to a wonderful “revenge” story.

How xQc was mocked: In a match, xQc was playing Winston and was quickly charged by a Reinhardt, caught, and crushed against the wall.

The opponent teabagged (repeated crouching) his corpse, which is generally regarded as provocation and insult.

Accordingly, xQc reacted angrily and promptly switched his character to Reinhardt, with whom he is known and feared.

This is how xQc reacted: With an still outraged “No, No, No…” he stormed back into the row of opponents. What follows is a literal slaughter, in which xQc and his team completely wipe out the enemies and can decide the match in their favor. The victory shout roughly translated as “And that’s why you don’t do that!” refers to the teabagging.

The short clip is a wonderful story. Defeat with provocation, followed by completed revenge with victory. Those who have experienced something like this know how satisfying such a moment feels.

Have you ever had such situations where you were mocked in Overwatch and then turned the match around? Or do you belong to the type of player who mocks others to provoke them and lead them to mistakes?

This is how you stay informed: More information about Overwatch can be found daily on our Overwatch Facebook page.

Not even the team knows why this ammunition is missing in The Division 2

Schuhmann 7. April 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

Since the latest patch in The Division 2, agents have been complaining: there is hardly any ammunition left for their signature weapons. But this is not a hidden nerf, rather a bug. The team from The Division 2 says: We are looking into it.

What exactly is missing? Before the patch on Friday, there was regularly “signature ammunition.” This allows players to load and use the special weapons of their specialization:

the Sharpshooter has a heavy sniper rifle
the Demolitionist uses a grenade launcher, which is extremely popular and used to blow up groups
and the Survivalist uses a precision crossbow

Before the update on Friday, there was plenty of ammunition. It dropped from defeated enemies and was easily recognizable in a rich orange color. But now The Division 2 is clearly being stingy with the coveted destruction materials.

Some agents report that they are running team missions and can’t find any ammunition for their signature weapon at all. They say they’ve played for hours and found nothing.
Other agents do find ammunition, but significantly less than before the update.
Some are even saying: The ammunition for signature weapons in The Division 2 is now as rare as legendary drops in Anthem. – Harsh.

This is how players are reacting: On Reddit and elsewhere, people are wondering what happened here. After all, the signature weapons are an important part of The Division 2: In principle, one of the few gameplay elements that are truly new.

One does not understand what this is supposed to mean.

The lack of ammunition is practically a nerf, because the signature weapons can deal significant damage – particularly annoying because World Tier 5 is already tough, and one wishes for a bit more damage there.

This is how Massive responds: The team from The Division 2 tweeted that they are investigating it.

So at this point, it seems clear that this is not a deliberate nerf, but rather a bug that has crept in.

We will probably soon be able to play with grenades, crossbows, and the heavy sniper rifle again.

Even Ubisoft support is interested in the details of the problem.

Is there a solution? The site PC Gamer recommends as a workaround to switch specializations in the White House and then switch back. This should at least temporarily refill the ammunition.

At the moment, things are not going well in The Division 2 – the projects are also disabled. We will probably see a “hotfix” or a repair patch in the coming weeks. The update on Friday seems to have broken a lot.

We will keep you updated at MeinMMO.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Game Introduces Hygiene Rules: Those Who Smell Will Be Punished

Cortyn 7. April 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

A card game comes with a quirky, new rule. Those who smell will now face sanctions at tournaments.

The stereotype that gamers and nerds tend to lack hygiene is an old cliché. However, this does not seem to be the case at the tournaments of the card game Yu-Gi-Oh!, as a rule has now been introduced stating that players must not smell. Those who do face penalties.

What is Yu-Gi-Oh!? Yu-Gi-Oh! is a popular card game that, even after many years on the market, still enjoys an active scene. In Germany, the card game became famous primarily through the anime of the same name, which also revolves around duels between card players.

Hygiene rule ensures a clean appearance: A new rule for the tournaments organized by Konami was introduced on April 3, which immediately caught the fans’ attention. The translated rule states:

“With this new rule, all participants in the tournament are required to be clean and wear clean clothes. (…)
If you or your clothing is very dirty or smells bad, you may be penalized.”

The extent of the penalties was not specified.

Comment from discussion Tournament Policy Update – April 3, 2019.

Fans find the rule entertaining: The rule update is actively discussed on Reddit, and it primarily provides entertainment. Although most clearly support hygiene rules, one wonders how they will be enforced.

It is already suspected that there will be many “cringe” moments when one player accuses another of smelling. A referee would then have to decide if that is indeed the case.

Others wonder how the need for this rule even came about – there must have been some extreme cases in the past.

What do you think of this rule? Shouldn’t this be a matter of course? How would you implement such rules?

In Hearthstone , one gets banned for entirely different reasons:

Diese echten Inhalte versteckte Secret World Legends in ihrem Aprilscherz

Alexander Leitsch 7. April 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

Funcom has released humorous patch notes for the MMO The Secret World Legends appropriate for April 1st. But as it turns out, some of the content is real and has been incorporated into the game.

What was in the patch notes? Patch 2.3.2 titled “Shenanigans” was supposed to include all sorts of crazy new features:

Grenades that have a 3% chance of misfiring and injuring the thrower
Characters suddenly finding love or dating again
Dungeons that were not changed at all but were still supposed to be mentioned in the patch notes
At least four new bugs

However, attentive members of The Secret World Database noticed that some of the announced changes were indeed incorporated into the game.

Which contents of the patch notes were real? After all, eight points from the April Fools’ joke actually made it into the game.

Among other things, a new mission was added, through which players can earn items for the Museum of the Occult.

In addition, a new item was introduced into the game that allows players to summon house cats. Access to this is obtained from the “Rose Brawl,” a new PvP mini-game that was also included in the patch notes.

Also, there were updates in the PvP mode “Shambala.” Now, players can only fight in 5v5, whereas previously 10 players were allowed on each side. Rewards have also been improved.

What has happened recently in The Secret World Legends: Currently, things are relatively quiet around the horror-action-mystery MMO from Funcom.

In November, the update Dark Agartha was released, which was received with mixed feelings by players. Many had hoped for a new story, but instead, only got boss grinding.

However, the reworked Halloween event was very well received by players.

For the developer Funcom, the year 2018 was the most successful in their history. They also announced a new game that will not be an MMO but will take a lot from The Secret World:

The Division 2 temporarily disables daily and weekly projects

Tom Rothstein 7. April 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

In The Division 2, Massive has temporarily disabled the daily and weekly projects. Due to a bug, players received rewards repeatedly. Massive was unable to fix the projects immediately.

Update 4:16 PM: The Division 2 was supposed to have a short server downtime today on April 7th to fix the projects. The server downtime did happen but was canceled at short notice.

Instead, Massive has now temporarily disabled the daily and weekly projects and is working on a fix.

The problem was apparently that the projects could output multiple rewards.

The projects in The Division 2 are a kind of weekly or daily quest.

Original announcement from April 6th:

The developers of Massive Entertainment have announced a server downtime for today, Saturday. If you want to ensure law and order in Washington D.C. after breakfast, you will be interrupted for a brief period.

The important times today, April 6th:

At 10 AM our time, the servers will be shut down. You can no longer log in. If you are still in the game, you will be forcibly removed.
At 10:15 AM, the downtime should be over. Massive anticipates that the servers will be offline for approximately 15 minutes.

Please keep in mind that this scheduled end time for the downtime is not set in stone. In recent weeks, some maintenance for The Division 2 ended much earlier than expected – or, as yesterday, much later – than previously announced.

If there are delays, we will update the article.

With the restart, Massive is likely only ensuring that the performance of The Division 2 improves.

This happened yesterday: Yesterday, on April 5th, the “true endgame” of The Division 2 finally began, namely World Tier 5. Now you can climb to the maximum gear score of 500. Additionally, the following new content was released:

The Stronghold Tidal Basin
3 new gear sets

A brief moment of peace in Star Wars Battlefront 2 moves thousands of players

Noah Struthoff 7. April 2019 Reading time 2 minutes

In Star Wars Battlefront 2 moved a brief moment of peace thousands of players on Reddit. One player helped his opponent who was trapped, delighting the Reddit community.

This is the moment: User “logan_kap” shared a video on Reddit that shows the special moment. An opponent playing Anakin was trapped in a tunnel and couldn’t free himself.

The opponent was therefore trapped. Instead of eliminating him, the player, as a droid, slowly approached his opponent and opened the door so he could escape.

That’s why this video is so popular

This happens in the video: Not only does the rescue action make the viewers smile. After the player freed his opponent, the brutal side of the game shows again.

The door was open for only a few seconds and the rescuer was eliminated by another opponent.

I thought Anakin was being nice but I’ve now realized he used me to open the door and proceeded to commit mass droid genocide against my team. from r/StarWarsBattlefront

This is how the rescue action was explained: The US site Kotaku asked the Reddit user why he rescued his opponent. He explained that his opponent was playing Anakin. This is a hero and it takes some effort to switch to a hero in a match.

He wanted to give his opponent the chance to continue playing as Anakin because he knows how frustrating it is to lose that role due to a silly trap.

Someone posted themselves as a droid saving me. So here’s my side of it. (Thank you for letting me go) from r/StarWarsBattlefront

He thanked the player for freeing him from that trap. Both videos received around 7000 upvotes in the Battlefront subreddit.

New mode in Fortnite brings back the sword – This was what got kicked out of the game back then

Noah Struthoff 7. April 2019 Reading time 3 minutes

The overpowered sword “Infinity Blade”, which caused fear and terror in Fortnite, is back. The last time the sword was shouted out of the game in disgrace. Epic brings this weapon back into play, but only for a new mode.

How does the sword return? This overpowered weapon will only be available in a new limited-time game mode. There, only legendary or epic weapons can be found.

In this Fortnite mode, the sword will also be available again. But even in this mode, the weapon will receive a significant nerf.

Fortnite sword fighting mode — The new mode “Sword Fighting” is currently active in Fortnite.

So the sword returns to Fortnite

What will be changed about the sword? The sword will be significantly weakened in the new mode. It starts with the fact that multiple players can carry a sword.

As a result, the owner of the Infinity Blade is not overpowered, but other players have the same weapon.

Additionally, you can no longer gather materials with the sword. This was very easy back then with the sword.

Moreover, the jumping ability with the weapon has been reduced.

What was the problem with the weapon? The Infinity Blade was introduced in Season 7. Back in December 2018, the weapon sparked numerous discussions, as the sword was quickly rated as overpowered.

Only one player could simultaneously carry the sword, becoming a sort of “final boss” and gaining significant power.

This was a problem for many professionals with the sword, as in tournaments, the weapon significantly distorted fairness. Whoever carried the sword had good chances to win. Thus, during the Winter Skirmish in December, there was a real slaughter with the sword.

How did the players react: The players found the sword way too powerful and demanded Epic to remove it from the standard game.

Epic should build a separate mode for it. Because the sword changed Fortnite drastically.

How did Epic respond to the criticism: They initially did not react at all, but announced that they would bring more such “mythical items”. Epic apparently wanted to keep Fortnite fresh and exciting, frequently bringing such intentionally overpowered weapons into the game.

Then there was a relatively small nerf of the sword, after which the protests became louder.

After the hate towards the weapon reached its maximum from all sides, Epic removed the sword from the game again. The Fortnite players had virtually shouted the sword out of Fortnite.

Now, after about 4 months, the weapon is back.

However, it is available in a modified form and only in a game mode. In the normal game mode, the sword will not be available.

About a week ago, the Boom Bow also came to Fortnite. This weapon is received much better:

This is where the most money was earned: After already making $32,000, MrBeast raised the stakes, but also the difficulty.

Now there was $10,000 for each kill, but Shroud was only allowed to play with one arm:

Shroud controlled the mouse and thus took care of shooting.
MrBeast played on the keyboard and managed the controls.

It went even better there: A total of $70,000 was earned in this round. MrBeast even prevented more kills in the end, as the money from Apex Legends seemed to be used up.

The background for this challenge was certainly also the arm surgery of Shroud. In the video, you can see that the streamer still wears a bandage on his left arm.

This is how it all ended: In a final round, Shroud played with a colleague of MrBeast. There, another $10,000 was earned for 2 kills. Shroud was also only using the mouse there. The keyboard was taken over by the colleague.

What happens to the money? The YouTuber showed in the video right away that he donated the collected money directly. A total of $32,000 went to veterans, $70,000 to a children’s hospital, and $10,000 to an animal shelter.

Shroud seems to be very popular on Twitch. A recent survey confirmed this statement:

The well-known streamer Shroud has earned over 100,000 dollars live on Twitch in Apex Legends. The money was subsequently donated to charity. What’s particularly noteworthy is that he earned most of the money with just one hand.

How did Shroud earn the money? The YouTuber MrBeast visited Shroud at home and presented him with a challenge. MrBeast had been given money for Apex Legends, which Shroud was to earn through kills in the shooter.

There was a certain sum of money as a bounty for each kill in a round. In total, over 100,000 dollars were raised for charity in the end.

This is how the charity event went

This is the backstory: MrBeast is known for giving away money and surprising people with challenges that involve a lot of money.

MrBeast explains in his video that he was provided with 100,000 dollars by the developers of Apex Legends.

With the cash, the YouTuber went to Shroud, the most famous player of Apex Legends. Together with MrBeast, he played live on Twitch for the money.

This is how the challenge went: MrBeast started small. For every kill that Shroud achieved, he received $2000. However, after just one kill, Shroud was eliminated.
