Bad news for MMORPG fans who are into Asian action. En Masse announces that Kritika Online has failed. The game was supposed to be established as an action MMORPG by En Masse, but now the European and North American versions are being shut down.
This is what En Masse says: The Product Manager of Kritika Online speaks up with clear facts (via En Masse). He is sad but has to announce that En Masse is ending the service for the North American and European versions of Kritika Online.
They thank everyone who played Kritika Online in the last two years.
This is how it continues:
With a patch today, the game will be placed into “maintenance mode”.
Players can no longer create new characters.
They also cannot spend EMP points in Kritika Online, which is En Masse’s premium currency.
However, all shop items in Kritika Online will be made free.
And players will receive EMP points back for the “Kreds” they still have. That is the currency of Kritika Online.
When is it finally over? On April 30, 2019, the servers will be permanently shut down.
What if you want to continue playing? Players can continue to play the Korean version of Kritika Online and take their accounts there.
Players were said to receive an email by March 22. The requirement is that they had logged in again between January 1, 2019, and March 6.
Users generally praised the fast-paced gameplay but missed depth.
Overall, many found the game simply too grindy.
There were no new, significant highlights.
After the launch at the end of 2017, there was less and less news about the game. This was probably a sign that Kritika Online had failed to retain enough players.
In discussions about the game on platforms like reddit, Kritika Online is described as a “Pay2Win” game with the hated energy mechanic. You had to grind but couldn’t because you lacked the energy for it.
Additionally, it was very repetitive, offered too little content, the instances were too small, and overall felt unsatisfying.
However, on Steam, there are also positive remarks for Kritika Online, highlighting the entertaining gameplay in combat. People who enjoy hard grinding probably spent several hours with Kritika Online.
Player numbers simply declined over the years
What went wrong with Kritika Online? En Masse simply failed to reach a player base that was large enough to keep Kritika Online alive and appear as an “active MMORPG”.
Due to the rather lukewarm rating, there was no “word-of-mouth” propaganda, and the title stayed under the radar of many players.
According to Steamcharts, Kritika Online never really managed to establish itself on Steam:
In 2017, they could still hold about 600 people per month (average player count).
But by April 2018, it was only 300.
In 2019, the number dropped to 130.
If the numbers on the Kritika Online launcher were similar to those on Steam, it seems clear why En Masse is pulling the plug.
In Week 2 of Season 8 in Fortnite: Battle Royale, you need to eat apples among other tasks. But where can you find the red fruits? We have tips on the locations.
What is the challenge about? In the first phase of this task from Week 2 in Season 8 , you need to heal a total of 25 health points by eating apples.
Help, I can’t eat apples! This is because you have full health. Apples give you back 5 health, but only if you are already injured.
If you have full health and still want to eat an apple, just build a high ramp and jump down. This will cause some damage that you can then heal with the apples.
Where are the apple locations?
This is how you find the apples: We have listed some places where you can reliably find apples. Remember that you can mainly find apples near thin trees.
Northeast of Loot Lake: Apples can often be found here.
North of Fatal Fields: There are some apple trees in the north.
West of Lucky Landing: Right before the desert begins, there are plenty of apples to find.
All locations on the map: We have also embedded a map for you showing a few locations of the apples.
Here you can find many apples.
In general, apples tend to appear in places with thin trees. So keep your eyes open.
If you know of more good apple locations, let us know.
In the State of the Game on March 6, the developers of The Division 2 finally talked in the live stream about the progress system in the endgame and how you can unlock more and more activities. We summarize the information for you.
This information is about: In the community live stream of the Division makers, this time it was about the endgame and how you can unlock more world tiers and activities with increasing progress.
In the endgame, certain strongholds or fortifications are waiting for you, which you must conquer first before moving on. We will show you how progress works in the endgame.
When does the endgame begin? As soon as you have reached level 30 and completed the campaign.
The Strongholds of The Division 2
What are strongholds? Most will first think of the Stronghold Dungeons from Anthem, but this is a different feature.
In The Division 2, the strongholds are literally fortifications. However, they are not only unlocked in the endgame but are also available during the campaign.
They are much larger and more challenging missions. Experts from The Division 1 will certainly remember the incursions.
According to the developers, the various fortifications belong to one of the enemy factions of The Division 2. They probably play an important role in the story and are only unlocked when you complete certain story missions.
What are world tiers? Like in The Division 1, there are five world tiers starting from level 30, which determine the loot and difficulty level of the entire game world.
Furthermore, the gear score is linked to the tiers, which indicates the strength of your equipment and determines the level of the stats.
If you reached the endgame in The Division 1, the world tiers were immediately available. You could freely switch between them.
This is how it will be in The Division 2: Unlike its predecessor, upon reaching level 30, not even world tier 1 is available. To unlock the world tiers, you must first complete all fortifications.
This happens at world tier 1: If you have completed all fortifications beforehand and unlocked world tier 1, the entire game world will be turned upside down. Captured control points will be attacked by the new endgame faction Black Tusk. The other factions are also suddenly on the move, as Black Tusk is attacking them too.
Moreover, the strongholds are reset and taken over by Black Tusk.
This is what to expect starting from World Tier 3: From world tier 3, you can unlock Cassie, the “Xur” variant of The Division 2. She has high-quality offers.
With world tier 3, “The Deck of 52” will also appear in the game world. This consists of named bosses made up of the 4 factions mentioned above. Each boss has a card and brings “special rewards”. If you have a deck of 52 cards, the bosses will respawn.
World Tier 4 Brings You Bounties, Difficulty Level and Named Bosses
This is what to expect with world tier 4: With the fourth tier, several endgame features are unlocked:
Bounties: With WR4, new faction bounties become available. If you complete 2 hard bounties of a faction, a special bounty with special rewards will be unlocked. The principle is reminiscent of the high-ranking targets in The Division 1. Regular bounties are already available before the endgame.
“Target Intel Drops”: These are probably target data that were also available in the predecessor. You need these to unlock bounties.
This is a possible target of a bounty mission. These probably cost target data.
New Difficulty Level: In addition, the Challenging difficulty level will be unlocked. This was also present in the predecessor. Enemies only consist of elite opponents, accordingly, the loot improves.
Daily and Weekly Projects: These are now available in the settlements, similar to the weekly and daily tasks in The Division 1. There, you had to complete certain gathering tasks or other similar missions to receive rewards. According to the live stream, these projects should not expire.
Stronghold “Tidal Basin”: This is the base of the Black Tusk. This must be completed to unlock world tier 5, the last of the tiers.
And what about world tier 5? The creators are still keeping quiet about this.
Developer Massive wants to keep the endgame and the game world constantly “fresh”. More information will follow at a later time, but they do not want to reveal too much.
Many players are now criticizing in Fallout 76 that melee weapons are significantly superior to rifles, pistols, and other firearms. However, this apparently does not apply to a particularly quirky weapon.
This is the weapon in question: The discussion is about the Döner knife, in English: Shishkebab. As strange as it sounds, the Döner knife is indeed a weapon in Fallout 76. It consists of a long blade that is engulfed in fire by a tank and a small flame.
The Döner knife has existed since Fallout 3 and has been one of the most popular weapons in the game ever since. In Fallout 3 and New Vegas, it was made of an old lawnmower blade and a motorcycle tank. The new version is more reminiscent of a modified Japanese sword.
Since its inception, the Döner knife has been considered an iconic cult weapon and is very popular among many players solely because of its appearance.
This is what the Döner knife looked like in Fallout 3. Image source: Fallout Wiki.
Why the Döner knife is too weak: Players criticize that the Döner knife simply does not deal enough damage. The biggest problem is that while it is a melee weapon, it only benefits from strength scaling halfway.
This is because the damage of the Döner knife is calculated only halfway as physical damage. The other half is from the fire damage type. The problem is discussed on reddit and finds a lot of support. The creator of the thread writes:
You could literally DOUBLE the base damage of the weapon and it would still only be a B- or A-Tier weapon. It is that bad. Yes, a 100% increase in base damage wouldn’t make it OP. Just usable.
How should the Döner knife become stronger? Fans provide a few improvement suggestions on how the Döner knife could somehow be made stronger or at least more useful. Mainly, the damage should be increased
This should make it comparably strong as the Deathclaw Gauntlet, which is currently considered one of the strongest melee weapons. Other players are also calling for a rework of other weapons like the chainsaw or adding more crazy suggestions. For example, it should automatically cook meat when enemies are defeated with it.
Players could save themselves the cooking if the Döner knife cooked the meat directly.
Bethesda has already responded to the criticism. Community manager ladydevann has responded to the thread and wants to ensure that the feedback reaches the developers.
Do you also want a stronger Döner knife?
Whether the Döner knife is included is still unknown, but there are big plans for Fallout 76:
In week 2 of Season 8 in Fortnite: Battle Royale, you need to visit certain points on the map. The task is “Visit the northernmost, southernmost, easternmost, and westernmost point of the island.” We will show you on the map where these points are.
What is this task about? Epic Games regularly releases new tasks for the Battle Pass. We are now in the second week of Season 8. One of the tasks requires you to visit the northernmost, southernmost, easternmost, and westernmost point on the map.
North: The northernmost point is near Junk Junction. The small tip at coordinates C1 is the highest point on the map. The wooden sign with the “N” shows you that you are correct.
The northernmost point in Fortnite with a view of an island
South: The southernmost point is at Lucky Landing. At coordinates F10, you will find a small wooden sign with an “S” on it.
The southernmost point in Fortnite is very close to Lucky Landing
East: The easternmost point is at the top end of Paradise Palms. At the transition to the “Green”. At J6, you will find the southern tip and a sign with an E. This stands for “East” and indicates that you have reached the right point.
Above the racetrack at Paradise Palms, you will find the easternmost point in Fortnite
West: The westernmost point is directly at Snobby Shores in grid cell A5. Head to the edge of the map, and you will discover the “W” on a sign.
Travel to Snobby Shores to find the westernmost point in Fortnite
What should you do? To complete the task, you just need to visit these locations. It doesn’t matter where you start. We have created a guide map for you, so you can see at a glance which points you should travel to and where you can find the signs.
Here you can find the points you are looking for on the Fortnite map – Also, follow us on Facebook.
If you’re already on your way, be sure to grab a treasure map. It brings legendary loot!
The long-awaited return of Rayquaza in Pokémon GO is approaching. However, some players are concerned about two things, which has dampened the mood in the community slightly.
Here lies the problem: Despite this good news, the event is not well-received everywhere. In particular, two issues are seen as problematic: the short event duration and the absence of Shiny.
We delve into the players’ concerns and explain what the issue is for some players.
Reason 1: There is no Shiny Rayquaza
This is what Niantic says about it: Regarding the Shiny topic, the Japanese Twitter account of Pokémon GO made a statement. They explained that there will be no shiny Rayquaza at the event.
Shiny Rayquaza will not be available for the time being.
This is why it is a problem: Niantic has hosted such raid weekends several times. There, players were able to catch the shiny version of the Pokémon. This was also the case most recently with Latias.
Moreover, the raid days of the legendary birds or Gengar also gave players the opportunity to catch their shiny forms for the first time.
It is all the more surprising that there will be no Shiny Rayquaza. Many players were hoping for such a weekend with the shiny form of the legendary Pokémon and are now disappointed.
This is what players think about it: On Reddit, there is a lot of discussion, and players’ opinions are mostly negative. A user named sts_ssp writes on Reddit: “I would have invested numerous raid passes for Shiny Rayquaza, but since there is no Shiny, I will wait until next time.”
“I won’t spend my premium passes if it’s not shiny. This is so disappointing,” writes another Reddit user.
Not only Pikachu is sad that there is no Shiny Rayquaza.
But there is also hope: Other players see something positive in all of this. They assume that Rayquaza will definitely come back again. Niantic should hopefully bring the legendary Pokémon in its shiny form then. Players also hope that this event will last longer than just a weekend.
Reason 2: Rayquaza is only available for one weekend
These are the event times: Rayquaza will return for a short time. You will only have the opportunity to encounter Rayquaza in raids from Saturday, March 16, to Monday, March 18.
This is why it is a problem: For many players, this time frame is simply too short. If one is unavailable that weekend, then there is almost no chance to catch Rayquaza.
Rayquaza returns only for a short time
Rayquaza is one of the best Pokémon in the game, which makes it all the more frustrating that it is only available for a short time.
This is the positive aspect: Since the event time is so short and there is no shiny, there will surely be another event surrounding Rayquaza. Therefore, players will have two chances to catch the legendary Pokémon.
What do you think about the event? Are you excited for Rayquaza or is it too short available for you?
Do you have all the gyms in your city at gold level? If not, now is the best time:
In Fortnite: Battle Royale there are new tasks for week 2 of season 8. This time it involves pirate cannons and a journey to the edge of the world.
In week 2 of season 8 there isn’t much spectacular. You have to defeat opponents and visit locations again. But there is also a fun task involving cannons.
Free and paid: If you want to complete all 7 challenges, you need the battle pass for season 8. It costs 950 V-Bucks (9.50 Euro). Those without a pass can only tackle the three free tasks of week 2.
All Challenges of Week 2 in Season 8
The free challenges
Reward
Land at the Block Land at Dusty Divot Land at Polar Peak Land at Snobby Shores Land at Paradise Palms
5 stars/500 XP

How to complete the task: Overall, you need to land at 5 locations:
Land at the Block
Land at Dusty Divot
Land at Polar Peak
Land at Snobby Shores
Land at Paradise Palms
Challenge 2 – Deal 200 damage to a falling supply drop
How to complete the task: This task is a bit tricky since supply drops are rare and you need to shoot them while they are falling. This consumes ammunition and makes you noticeable.
Ideally, complete the task in a mode with enhanced loot, as more supply drops tend to fall.
Challenge 3 – Eliminate 3 opponents in Salty Springs or Haunted Hills
How to complete the task: This is the usual kill task that shouldn’t be a big problem.
Challenge 4 – Gain health from apples (Battle Pass only)
How to complete the task: This task isn’t a big problem either. Every player should have used an apple at some point to regenerate 25 health points. Phase 2 requires 50 health points from campfires (Locations can be found here). Phase 3 requires 75 health from medkits.
Challenge 5 – Visit the northernmost, southernmost, easternmost, and westernmost point of the island (Battle Pass only)
How to complete the task: In our guide, we show you each location you need to visit for this task:
Challenge 6 – Deal damage to opponents with a pirate cannon (Battle Pass only)
How to complete the task: Pirate cannons are fun and fit well with the theme of season 8. Therefore, it is also great fun to complete this task. Just find a cannon and shoot it at your opponents.
You can find cannons at the new pirate camps in Fortnite; here are their locations:
On Tuesday evening, Ajax Amsterdam sensationally eliminated the defending champion Real Madrid 4:1 from the UEFA Champions League. This was also noticeable in FIFA 19.
This is how the Champions League match went: The Dutch traditional club had to overcome a 2:1 deficit from the first leg of the Champions League Round of 16. Against the defending champion Real Madrid, this seemed like an impossible task.
But the team led by goalscorers Ziyech, David Neres, Tadić, and Schöne not only played sensationally, they also scored four goals against the “Royal” squad. A deficit from which Real could not recover. In a wild match, the underdog triumphed – and suddenly became extremely popular in FIFA 19.
Played great against Real: Dušan Tadić
“What a performance”: Players want Hero cards
This is how the FIFA community reacts: Not only in real football, but also in the FIFA 19 community, the “Miracle of Madrid” was celebrated. Because not only in the Champions League mode does the European competition play a role: In Ultimate Team, Ajax players are currently receiving a lot of attention.
For fun, “End of an Era” cards for the Real players are being suggested in the FIFA subreddit, while for match winner Tadic, pretty much every kind of special card is being proposed. A Reddit thread voted by over 2400 users simply calls for: “Dear EA, please give the entire Ajax team Hero cards.”
This is how Hero cards for Tagliafico and Tadić could look
These are Hero cards: Such cards do exist in FIFA 19. The purple Hero cards are awarded only to players who have achieved extraordinary performances, such as winning a decisive match almost single-handedly. There are not many of them in FIFA 19 yet.
Ajax prices explode: Anyone who bet on the underdog to win and stocked up on Ajax players before the match must have made a nice profit. The Champions League victory was immediately noticeable on the transfer market.
For example, Tadić’s UCL card, whose price started to climb during the match. From a value of around 2,800 coins, the card jumped to 7,500 – and it is still trending upward.
Tagliafico sold out: Even Tadić’s teammates saw their price ceilings suddenly drop. Especially the special cards that are currently available for Ajax became increasingly popular. However, Tagliafico’s RTTF card overshadows all others.
The value of this card increases with each round Ajax progresses in the Champions League. Since the Dutch were close to elimination against Real, the RTTF card was relatively cheap to obtain. Then the victory came, and the price exploded:
“Tagliafico bought me Ronaldo”: A player on Reddit reports: “I had a million and thought ‘screw it’ and spent everything on Tagliafico, who just cost 30,000 coins. I made 600,000 coins in 3 minutes.”
Shortly after, the same player noted: “Damn, Tagliafico is extinct. I could have made another 200,000 if I had waited five more minutes. Anyway, I’m still happy.” And indeed: The RTTF card is currently not available on the transfer market anymore. Some players evidently still trust Ajax to take the next step.
Investing has definitely paid off. Will a Champions League miracle also transfer to FIFA 19 next week? Feel free to try out investments in TOTW until then:
The creators of The Division 2 have released a pseudo-state of emergency statement from Mexico via Twitter. A reference to current political events?
This is the reference to political events: The official Twitter account of The Division 2 released a “press release” yesterday declaring a state of emergency in Mexico. The country aims to respond to the critical situation in the USA.
Recommended editorial content

Read more about our privacy policy.
The statement mentions that Mexico will immediately begin construction of a wall. The borders to the USA are closed. The aim is to minimize the risk of infected individuals fleeing to Mexico. Thus, the government attempts to protect the people in Mexico.
The Mexican government has deployed troops to the border to prevent the entry of U.S. citizens with a zero-tolerance mandate.
Mexican officials are in contact with Division agents who are relentlessly fighting for the interests of the citizens of the United States, Washington D.C., and democracy, but they have lost faith and trust in the U.S. government. Until that changes, the borders remain closed.
Chaos reigns in The Division 2
Why are the developers tweeting this? This is a marketing gag for The Division 2.
In the shared-world shooter, which releases on March 15, Division agents must restore law and order in Washington D.C. After a virus outbreak that originated in New York, the country descended into chaos. Politics collapsed, wicked factions seized power, and only the Division unit remains to protect the civilian population.
With the now released state of emergency declaration, the developers emphasize how dramatic the setting in The Division 2 will be. Mexico is isolating itself, the USA is falling apart. The Division agents are the last hope.
Why is this so controversial? Anyone who has been following U.S. politics in recent weeks and months will have noticed that a wall between Mexico and the USA is a big, very real topic. However, in real politics, it is not Mexico, but the USA, under President Trump, that wants to build a wall to stop migrants from the south.
Is there more to it than PR? Some players view The Division 2’s reversal of roles between the two parties—allowing Mexico to build a wall to protect itself from refugees coming from the USA—as political satire.
There is discussion and a lack of consensus on reddit about whether this is amusing, too political, or simply a questionable PR stunt meant to provoke. An admin points out in the reddit forum that the post is alarmingly close to satire, but makes sense in the context of the game’s story.
Ubisoft’s stance on political themes in games: Ubisoft has previously stated that they do not want to address political themes in The Division 2. The story in the game is fictional. It is pure fiction. Additionally, politics is bad for business, so they will not adopt a political stance.
Accordingly, this marketing gag, which quite clearly resembles real-world events, comes as a surprise.
In World of Warcraft, two new allied races are coming soon. With Patch 8.1.5, the Zandalari trolls will join the Horde and the Kul Tiran will join the Alliance. However, you will first need to gain the appropriate reputation. You are currently farming that faster.
How do I gain reputation faster? At the moment, there are several events that increase your earned reputation. Since the last server restart, the weekly world quest event has been active, granting you 50% more reputation from world quests.
Additionally, it is currently the Darkmoon Faire. Anyone who rides the carousel at the fair will receive a buff that increases earned reputation by an additional 10% for up to 60 minutes. Alternatively, you can buy and wear Darkmoon hats.
In addition, there are contracts that you can receive from scribes. These grant you a small reputation boost with the chosen faction for completing any world quest.
All these buffs can stack, except for the “Yay!” buff and the Darkmoon hat, of which only one can be active at a time.
If you want to earn reputation quickly, you should hurry.
Why do I need to hurry? The Darkmoon Faire is only available until Saturday, March 9th. So you have the chance to gain a lot of reputation only until then.
The world quest event will not end until March 13th. Since Patch 8.1.5 will also be released on March 13th, this is not a problem. However, it also means that you have only a few days left to gather the required reputation.
Patch 8.1.5 will likely advance the story about Azshara.
You need these factions for the new allied races: If you want to unlock the Zandalari trolls or the Kul Tiran, you must have exalted reputation with certain factions:
For the Kul Tiran, you need reputation with the Proudmoore Admiralty (Tiragarde Sound)
For the Zandalari trolls, you need reputation with the Zandalari Empire (Zuldazar)
Once you have the required reputation, you only need to fulfill the other requirements in Patch 8.1.5.
If you want to try both races now, you can play them on the PTR. Patch 8.1.5 is currently being tested there.
A Zandalari Druid.
Bonus also useful for old allied races
If you started later or haven’t been interested so far, you might also be missing the first allied races that were newly added with Battle for Azeroth: Dark Iron Dwarves (Alliance) and Mag’har Orcs (Horde).
For both races, you also need reputation, which you can gain faster with the current events. You need reputation with your respective war faction, the 7th Legion for the Alliance or the Honorbound for the Horde.
The creators of Black Desert, Pearl Abyss, have announced that they are developing a new MMORPG. It is codenamed “Project V” and is set to come with a new engine.It is intended to be a game for the whole family.
What’s behind Project V: Pearl Abyss announced “Project V” a few hours ago.
It is meant to be a “lovable family MMORPG that everyone can enjoy together. It will be a “casual MMORPG”. This is evident from a Facebook post by Pearl Abyss.
At the moment, we do not know when it will be released, for which platforms it will be available, and how it will look in terms of a port to the West:
An image shows a girl sitting alone on a pole with a skateboard and a type of vacuum cleaner
In a reflection behind her, however, it can be seen that other animal and plant beings have also taken a seat on the pole with her
In the background of the image, futuristic skyscrapers can be seen.
Perhaps this is a nod to an “Augmented Reality” or “Virtual Reality” setting.
What’s special about it: As MMOCulture reports, Project V uses a completely new game engine that has been specifically created for new games.
It does not use the engine from Black Desert, as that is already 9 years old. The new engine is intended to propel Pearl Abyss forward and enable them to compete with AAA titles globally.
A new bug has been discovered in Destiny 2 that significantly buffs equipped weapons. What’s going on with this?
What kind of bug is this? The bug is triggered by the exotic fusion rifle “One Thousand Voices”. This is an Exotic that rarely drops from the boss in the “Last Wish” raid as a random drop.
With the Season 6 update, One Thousand Voices was buffed by +25% damage in PvE.
However, it seems Bungie made a mistake. Because when you equip One Thousand Voices, suddenly all other weapons are also increased by +25% PvE damage.
No effect on PvP
How the bug was discovered: Professional streamer Gladd recently shared a video on Twitter showcasing this bug. We embed the video here:

He writes that equipping 1000 Voices buffs all equipped weapons by 25%. That is not okay.
He provides proof in the video. He compares the damage output of a hand cannon before and after equipping One Thousand Voices. The result clearly shows that the hand cannon also experiences a significant damage buff (from 746 to 918 precision damage).
Is the bug only in PvE? After further testing, Gladd confirms that the buff does not affect PvP. Other users report that the bug is also active in Gambit, but only applies to PvE enemies.
What does Bungie say about it? We currently do not have an official statement from Bungie regarding this. However, a fix will likely be necessary sooner rather than later. After all, this is a game bug that gives advantages in the PvEvP mode Gambit and is triggered solely by equipping a weapon. Multiple guardians will benefit from it without even knowing.
Therefore, there will certainly be no penalties for exploiting the bug.
Until the bug is fixed, PvE will be 25% easier for you – as long as you own One Thousand Voices.
Under the title Z1 Battle Royale, NantG launched a new version of the online shooter H1Z1: King of the Kill. The new developer is also relying on features that had actually been removed from the game to bring fans back.
H1Z1 is back!
What is Z1 Battle Royale? Essentially, it is the online shooter H1Z1: King of the Kill, which aims to revive the old gaming experience under a new name.
What is different? Besides the name, a new developer, NantG, is now in charge. This developer wants to return to the game’s glory days to lead it into the future. The title is also supposed to visually remind players of the past.
That’s why it’s a “nostalgic” gaming experience:Z1 Battle Royale aims to bring the game back to the point when it had many players. In 2017, with the rise of PUBG, H1Z1 started to decline.
There are some changes:
When players log in, they see the old loading screen.
The UI has been modified to look more like it did in the past.
The team brought back “old” animations, textures, and lighting effects and relies on game mechanics, such as with vehicles, that had actually long been changed.
Old weapon stats, bullet speed, and even the old map are also making a comeback.
There are no more “Points of Interest.”
Nostalgia adorned with innovations
What’s new? The team not only returned to some elements from the past but also introduced new features:
You now complete quests in the game world.
You now search the field for fragments that grant you credits.
You face daily challenges.
Season 3 and the Ranked Pro mode are live.
You can earn plenty of interesting rewards.
How is the new version received? Discussions about the new version are taking place on Reddit. Many express their enthusiasm as it nearly brings back the gameplay feel from about two years ago. However, the new version is struggling with some technical issues, resulting in occasional crashes.
Some fans feel that the changes are not far enough and wish for Z1 Battle Royale to play just like H1Z1: King of the Kill did in 2016.
According to Steamcharts, a lot of players are checking out the new version. At its peak, over 12,700 players were online simultaneously. Whether this can be maintained will be shown in the coming weeks. However, interest seems to be present.
While the gameplay with the Javelins, flying, and combos was a lot of fun for most of you, there is considerable room for improvement in many aspects of Anthem.
[…] The game will probably be good by the end of 2019, but right now I can’t imagine I’ll be playing it very long, even though the gameplay is really fun. […]
Comment by Sunface
Even though the problems with Anthem may not bother everyone equally, many of you hope that improvements will come over time. Most see something special in Anthem and believe that it can become really good if Bioware stays committed.
The game fills a niche that neither Destiny nor The Division can accommodate. If BioWare releases additional content, diligently fixes bugs, improves stability, and implements important quality-of-life adjustments, I see a promising future for the game.
User review by Christoph Schmeling
Is Anthem worth it for me?
Anthem is worth it for you if:
You enjoy exploring beautiful and atmospheric worlds in games.
You have always wanted to feel like Iron Man.
You like collecting lore snippets scattered throughout the world that provide additional info about the story.
You tend to take your time in games and explore everything thoroughly.
You find the constant grind for new upgrades satisfying.
You place a lot of value on getting to the endgame quickly and seeing a lot of content there.
You are looking for PvP content.
You want a story depth like in other BioWare titles.
You have absolutely no patience with bugs and performance issues.
You expect a lot of variety in mission and quest design.
While the gameplay with the Javelins, flying, and combos was a lot of fun for most of you, there is considerable room for improvement in many aspects of Anthem.
[…] The game will probably be good by the end of 2019, but right now I can’t imagine I’ll be playing it very long, even though the gameplay is really fun. […]

Even though the problems with Anthem may not bother everyone equally, many of you hope that improvements will come over time. Most see something special in Anthem and believe that it can become really good if Bioware stays committed.
The game fills a niche that neither Destiny nor The Division can accommodate. If BioWare releases additional content, diligently fixes bugs, improves stability, and implements important quality-of-life adjustments, I see a promising future for the game.

Is Anthem worth it for me?
Anthem is worth it for you if:
You enjoy exploring beautiful and atmospheric worlds in games.
You have always wanted to feel like Iron Man.
You like collecting lore snippets scattered throughout the world that provide additional info about the story.
You tend to take your time in games and explore everything thoroughly.
You find the constant grind for new upgrades satisfying.
Anthem is not for you if:
You place a lot of value on getting to the endgame quickly and seeing a lot of content there.
You are looking for PvP content.
You want a story depth like in other BioWare titles.
You have absolutely no patience with bugs and performance issues.
You expect a lot of variety in mission and quest design.
The story divides the MeinMMO readers
Here opinions diverged: Only in the point of story were the MeinMMO users absolutely divided. There was a wide range of opinions and statements.
[…] The game entertained me very well. I find the story, including side missions, absolutely solid.
Comment by Sempertalis
MeinMMO readers like buYanotherSheep and Captain Rex agreed with him. While Captain Rex noted that he would have liked to see more of it.
The small story snippets discovered by the freelancers were rather praised. They provided entertainment value and elicited some chuckles. These include funny radio broadcasts that gave more insight into the characters and the world or quirky adventures like those of detective Hoppel.
Dominion are the main antagonists of Anthem
The user Kristian Steiffen, on the other hand, did not like the story:
[…] The story is… really not worthy of such a great story-making studio like BioWare. The story neither has truly surprising twists, nor a serious “opponent”, nor interesting characters. […]
He is by no means alone in his opinion in the comments.
Quite often, MeinMMO readers have also said that the story in a game like Anthem actually interests them less and therefore it’s not a big problem for them if it’s not that great.
For these readers, the gameplay elements were a more important factor.
It’s a balancing act that the developers are trying with Anthem: fans of single-player games with deep stories might uninstall the game in disappointment after finishing the campaign. Players who want constant co-op action with friends or teammates assigned through matchmaking might be annoyed by the numerous dialogues between missions.

The community says: Solid foundation with room for improvement
In general, the rating of Anthem among MeinMMO users is somewhat higher than among the trade press.
MeinMMO readers give Anthem 72% in the test
The distribution of votes in the survey: A total of 4,280 users participated in the survey over the past week.
While there were outliers both upwards and downwards, the average rating is 7.17 out of a maximum of 10 points. That would be 72% for Anthem in the MeinMMO reader test in the usual 100-point scoring format.
On Meta-Critic, Anthem stands at 60% on PC.

The distribution of votes in the survey: A total of 4,280 users participated in the survey over the past week.
While there were outliers both upwards and downwards, the average rating is 7.17 out of a maximum of 10 points. That would be 72% for Anthem in the MeinMMO reader test in the usual 100-point scoring format.
On Meta-Critic, Anthem stands at 60% on PC.
While the gameplay with the Javelins, flying, and combos was a lot of fun for most of you, there is considerable room for improvement in many aspects of Anthem.
[…] The game will probably be good by the end of 2019, but right now I can’t imagine I’ll be playing it very long, even though the gameplay is really fun. […]

Even though the problems with Anthem may not bother everyone equally, many of you hope that improvements will come over time. Most see something special in Anthem and believe that it can become really good if Bioware stays committed.
The game fills a niche that neither Destiny nor The Division can accommodate. If BioWare releases additional content, diligently fixes bugs, improves stability, and implements important quality-of-life adjustments, I see a promising future for the game.

Is Anthem worth it for me?
Anthem is worth it for you if:
You enjoy exploring beautiful and atmospheric worlds in games.
You have always wanted to feel like Iron Man.
You like collecting lore snippets scattered throughout the world that provide additional info about the story.
You tend to take your time in games and explore everything thoroughly.
You find the constant grind for new upgrades satisfying.
Anthem is not for you if:
You place a lot of value on getting to the endgame quickly and seeing a lot of content there.
You are looking for PvP content.
You want a story depth like in other BioWare titles.
You have absolutely no patience with bugs and performance issues.
You expect a lot of variety in mission and quest design.
The story divides the MeinMMO readers
Here opinions diverged: Only in the point of story were the MeinMMO users absolutely divided. There was a wide range of opinions and statements.
[…] The game entertained me very well. I find the story, including side missions, absolutely solid.
Comment by Sempertalis
MeinMMO readers like buYanotherSheep and Captain Rex agreed with him. While Captain Rex noted that he would have liked to see more of it.
The small story snippets discovered by the freelancers were rather praised. They provided entertainment value and elicited some chuckles. These include funny radio broadcasts that gave more insight into the characters and the world or quirky adventures like those of detective Hoppel.
Dominion are the main antagonists of Anthem
The user Kristian Steiffen, on the other hand, did not like the story:
[…] The story is… really not worthy of such a great story-making studio like BioWare. The story neither has truly surprising twists, nor a serious “opponent”, nor interesting characters. […]
He is by no means alone in his opinion in the comments.
Quite often, MeinMMO readers have also said that the story in a game like Anthem actually interests them less and therefore it’s not a big problem for them if it’s not that great.
For these readers, the gameplay elements were a more important factor.
It’s a balancing act that the developers are trying with Anthem: fans of single-player games with deep stories might uninstall the game in disappointment after finishing the campaign. Players who want constant co-op action with friends or teammates assigned through matchmaking might be annoyed by the numerous dialogues between missions.

The game fills a niche that neither Destiny nor The Division can accommodate. If BioWare releases additional content, diligently fixes bugs, improves stability, and implements important quality-of-life adjustments, I see a promising future for the game.

Is Anthem worth it for me?
Anthem is worth it for you if:
You enjoy exploring beautiful and atmospheric worlds in games.
You have always wanted to feel like Iron Man.
You like collecting lore snippets scattered throughout the world that provide additional info about the story.
You tend to take your time in games and explore everything thoroughly.
You find the constant grind for new upgrades satisfying.
Anthem is not for you if:
You place a lot of value on getting to the endgame quickly and seeing a lot of content there.
You are looking for PvP content.
You want a story depth like in other BioWare titles.
You have absolutely no patience with bugs and performance issues.
You expect a lot of variety in mission and quest design.
While the gameplay with the Javelins, flying, and combos was a lot of fun for most of you, there is considerable room for improvement in many aspects of Anthem.
[…] The game will probably be good by the end of 2019, but right now I can’t imagine I’ll be playing it very long, even though the gameplay is really fun. […]

The story divides the MeinMMO readers
Here opinions diverged: Only in the point of story were the MeinMMO users absolutely divided. There was a wide range of opinions and statements.
[…] The game entertained me very well. I find the story, including side missions, absolutely solid.
Comment by Sempertalis
MeinMMO readers like buYanotherSheep and Captain Rex agreed with him. While Captain Rex noted that he would have liked to see more of it.
The small story snippets discovered by the freelancers were rather praised. They provided entertainment value and elicited some chuckles. These include funny radio broadcasts that gave more insight into the characters and the world or quirky adventures like those of detective Hoppel.
Dominion are the main antagonists of Anthem
The user Kristian Steiffen, on the other hand, did not like the story:
[…] The story is… really not worthy of such a great story-making studio like BioWare. The story neither has truly surprising twists, nor a serious “opponent”, nor interesting characters. […]
He is by no means alone in his opinion in the comments.
Quite often, MeinMMO readers have also said that the story in a game like Anthem actually interests them less and therefore it’s not a big problem for them if it’s not that great.
For these readers, the gameplay elements were a more important factor.
It’s a balancing act that the developers are trying with Anthem: fans of single-player games with deep stories might uninstall the game in disappointment after finishing the campaign. Players who want constant co-op action with friends or teammates assigned through matchmaking might be annoyed by the numerous dialogues between missions.

The community says: Solid foundation with room for improvement
In general, the rating of Anthem among MeinMMO users is somewhat higher than among the trade press.
MeinMMO readers give Anthem 72% in the test
The distribution of votes in the survey: A total of 4,280 users participated in the survey over the past week.
While there were outliers both upwards and downwards, the average rating is 7.17 out of a maximum of 10 points. That would be 72% for Anthem in the MeinMMO reader test in the usual 100-point scoring format.
On Meta-Critic, Anthem stands at 60% on PC.

We wanted to know your opinion on Anthem and you responded: Here’s how the readers of MeinMMO rate the online RPG Anthem (PC, PS4, Xbox One) in the review.
Visually a beautiful game world: One of the points that many of you mentioned right at the beginning of your comments was the world of Anthem.
The world is, according to user comments, very beautiful to look at. The design of the world of Anthem is also praised: it has a mysterious flair and is fun to explore.
[…] Anthem already offers an appealing, pretty world. The graphics are obviously stunning and even run smoothly on my rather old machine. […]
Comment by Kristian Steiffen
Sunrise in Anthem
The open world needs more content: However, you wish for more variety in this beautiful world. For some MeinMMO readers, there isn’t enough happening in the open world.
Open world events are rare and are not marked on the map. There could also be more wild animals and monsters that would give the world more life.
[…] The variety of world events is a bit scant and repeats quickly. Kill this, defend that, deliver part A to B. […]
Comment by Pacman
The Javelins are the stars of Anthem
That’s why you liked the Javelins: Another feature of Anthem that most readers agreed on in the comments is the Javelins—the four classes of the game.
This core aspect of Anthem and the gameplay elements associated with it convinced many of you.
[…] The four different Javelins play very differently, and that you don’t have to play everything from scratch for each Javelin is a very good idea. […]
Comment by TomRobJonsen
The Javelins all play differently according to your comments and have their strengths, even if the balance is not yet 100%. The four different mechs cover most playstyles with their builds, and there’s something for almost everyone.
Ranger, Storm, Colossus, and Interceptor Javelin
Abilities convey a feeling of strength: The various skills of the Javelin are also convincing. They feel powerful according to reader comments, and the combo system is especially fun in teams with friends.
Even readers who ultimately rated Anthem negatively found the system good.
[…] When I hover over the battlefield, freeze a whole company of enemies, and my buddy smashes down from above with his Colossus, we cheer like little kids when the ice cream truck comes. […]
Comment by Sleeping-Ex
Flying is the most popular feature: Special mention among the features goes to flying. Many of you considered this one of the best features of the Javelins.
Storm Javelin rains death and destruction from the sky
A large portion of readers in the comments praised the wonderful feeling that flying provides and the intuitive control of the Javelins in flight.
[…] Flying is incredible; it’s fun to be able to escape from dangerous situations or simply explore the world. […]
Comment by ChrizQ
Some also expressed slight frustration that flying is time-limited and that due to overheating, you either have to find a waterfall or land.
Gostha said: “The only thing that brings Anthem down for me is the nice weather in the game! I can’t fly for long! Bring on the rain!”
Explore the world from the air
The loading screen of terrible infinity and other bugs
This is what you criticized about the performance: One of the main criticisms of Anthem were performance issues, as well as bugs many of you encountered.
Especially the many and seemingly endless loading screens really annoyed the readers of MeinMMO.
[…] Loading times are pure horror. Because if you don’t catch up with your team in time, you land back on the loading screen […]
Long loading screens were a criticism point for many testers.
Your comments on the bugs were rather mixed. While most readers found them annoying, rather few believed they would completely ruin the fun. Some of the bugs listed included:
Sound bug that causes loss of audio in the game and can only be fixed by restarting.
Connection drops during missions that sometimes lead to loss of loot.
Bug that makes entering the Javelins impossible.
Quest and mission progress sometimes does not update.
In general, you were quite unanimous in the comments that the bugs and performance issues are a problem, but they will still be fixed over time.
An Interceptor Javelin that could equip armor parts of a Colossus due to a bug
Monotonous tasks and lack of endgame
The most criticism was received for the mission and quest design, as well as the endgame of Anthem.
This is what you criticized about the missions: According to the MeinMMO readership, the missions and quests are designed to be far too monotonous. Just like with the world events, more variety was wished for here.
[…] The missions are always of the sort to first go to point A, then to point B, and then to point C. […]
Comment by KronosX2
And many other readers also found that there is room for improvement.
These are the problems with the endgame: The endgame of Anthem is also one of the features that received a lot of criticism.
Many of you felt that the multiple difficulty levels do not compensate for the fact that the missions are monotonous, and there are only three Strongholds.
[…] I think there are too few Strongholds; 3 is really scant, it should already be at least double that. […]
Comment by Kendrick Young
But the lack of variety among enemies was also criticized, and you requested a change in the comments on that point.
[…] Bosses have no mechanics and are just cookie-cutter bullet sponges. Hardly any variety among enemy types, as you feel like you only fight against one of the 3 factions 90% of the time. […]
Comment by LittleEllie
Another problem was the hit feedback during fights. Especially on higher difficulty levels, enemies, like snipers, are often able to send a Javelin to the junkyard with just a few shots.
Titans are among the more common boss enemies in Anthem
Accordingly, it was really frustrating for some of you that it was difficult to see where you were being shot from due to the lack of hit feedback.
[…] I never know where I am being shot or hit from, and some of those melee fighters or snipers can hit you hard to 5%. […]
Comment by ConsoleCowboy
Bosses are often described as challenging, but deep mechanics are missed. The Javelins, on the other hand, are currently the key to the complex, varied gameplay:
I particularly noticed the parallels to other MMORPGs and role-playing games here. The use of the specific abilities of individual Javelins and the resulting synergies are key to completing activities at the highest difficulty levels.
At first, I triggered combos with my Storm myself, rarely paid attention to my teammates, and hardly communicated with them. By now, my build consists solely of weapons and abilities that inflict various status effects on enemies to prepare combos for the other Javelins.
User review by Christoph Schmeling
This is what you say about the loot: Your opinions on the loot in Anthem were rather divided. What was predominantly rated well:
The random rolls on gear, which motivate the grind for better items.
The various abilities and components that can greatly influence and change builds.
The recent adjustments moved in the right direction.
But there were also negative points you mentioned:
The inscriptions on the items are sometimes totally nonsensical and are poorly explained.
Effort and reward for the higher difficulties of the Stronghold don’t pay off, especially for activities from Grandmaster 2.
Normal and legendary or masterwork weapons look the same; there is no variety in weapon design.
The absence of rerolls.

Comment by Sunface
Even though the problems with Anthem may not bother everyone equally, many of you hope that improvements will come over time. Most see something special in Anthem and believe that it can become really good if Bioware stays committed.
The game fills a niche that neither Destiny nor The Division can accommodate. If BioWare releases additional content, diligently fixes bugs, improves stability, and implements important quality-of-life adjustments, I see a promising future for the game.

The story divides the MeinMMO readers
Here opinions diverged: Only in the point of story were the MeinMMO users absolutely divided. There was a wide range of opinions and statements.
[…] The game entertained me very well. I find the story, including side missions, absolutely solid.
Comment by Sempertalis
MeinMMO readers like buYanotherSheep and Captain Rex agreed with him. While Captain Rex noted that he would have liked to see more of it.
The small story snippets discovered by the freelancers were rather praised. They provided entertainment value and elicited some chuckles. These include funny radio broadcasts that gave more insight into the characters and the world or quirky adventures like those of detective Hoppel.
Dominion are the main antagonists of Anthem
The user Kristian Steiffen, on the other hand, did not like the story:
[…] The story is… really not worthy of such a great story-making studio like BioWare. The story neither has truly surprising twists, nor a serious “opponent”, nor interesting characters. […]
He is by no means alone in his opinion in the comments.
Quite often, MeinMMO readers have also said that the story in a game like Anthem actually interests them less and therefore it’s not a big problem for them if it’s not that great.
For these readers, the gameplay elements were a more important factor.
It’s a balancing act that the developers are trying with Anthem: fans of single-player games with deep stories might uninstall the game in disappointment after finishing the campaign. Players who want constant co-op action with friends or teammates assigned through matchmaking might be annoyed by the numerous dialogues between missions.

One of the 3 quest NPCs for side missions: Sentinel Brin – she really hates Skar
The community says: Solid foundation with room for improvement
In general, the rating of Anthem among MeinMMO users is somewhat higher than among the trade press.
MeinMMO readers give Anthem 72% in the test
The distribution of votes in the survey: A total of 4,280 users participated in the survey over the past week.
While there were outliers both upwards and downwards, the average rating is 7.17 out of a maximum of 10 points. That would be 72% for Anthem in the MeinMMO reader test in the usual 100-point scoring format.
On Meta-Critic, Anthem stands at 60% on PC.
While the gameplay with the Javelins, flying, and combos was a lot of fun for most of you, there is considerable room for improvement in many aspects of Anthem.
[…] The game will probably be good by the end of 2019, but right now I can’t imagine I’ll be playing it very long, even though the gameplay is really fun. […]
Comment by Sunface
Even though the problems with Anthem may not bother everyone equally, many of you hope that improvements will come over time. Most see something special in Anthem and believe that it can become really good if Bioware stays committed.
The game fills a niche that neither Destiny nor The Division can accommodate. If BioWare releases additional content, diligently fixes bugs, improves stability, and implements important quality-of-life adjustments, I see a promising future for the game.

Is Anthem worth it for me?
Anthem is worth it for you if:
You enjoy exploring beautiful and atmospheric worlds in games.
You have always wanted to feel like Iron Man.
You like collecting lore snippets scattered throughout the world that provide additional info about the story.
You tend to take your time in games and explore everything thoroughly.
You find the constant grind for new upgrades satisfying.
Anthem is not for you if:
You place a lot of value on getting to the endgame quickly and seeing a lot of content there.
You are looking for PvP content.
You want a story depth like in other BioWare titles.
You have absolutely no patience with bugs and performance issues.
You expect a lot of variety in mission and quest design.
The story divides the MeinMMO readers
Here opinions diverged: Only in the point of story were the MeinMMO users absolutely divided. There was a wide range of opinions and statements.
[…] The game entertained me very well. I find the story, including side missions, absolutely solid.
Comment by Sempertalis
MeinMMO readers like buYanotherSheep and Captain Rex agreed with him. While Captain Rex noted that he would have liked to see more of it.
The small story snippets discovered by the freelancers were rather praised. They provided entertainment value and elicited some chuckles. These include funny radio broadcasts that gave more insight into the characters and the world or quirky adventures like those of detective Hoppel.
Dominion are the main antagonists of Anthem
The user Kristian Steiffen, on the other hand, did not like the story:
[…] The story is… really not worthy of such a great story-making studio like BioWare. The story neither has truly surprising twists, nor a serious “opponent”, nor interesting characters. […]
He is by no means alone in his opinion in the comments.

In Apex Legends there are many ways to equip yourself. It is important to know exactly what you are looking for. We present you our weapon combos for battle royale.
If you want to achieve victory in Apex Legends, you should be well-informed. It is particularly important to know which weapon is useful in which situation. Naturally, the speed at which you can access the respective weapons also plays a role.
Based on personal experience in the game and assessments from streamers and professionals, we have compiled a list of combinations for you.
[toc]
Wingman/Peacekeeper, the Storm Assault
What kind of combination is this? The combination of the Wingman pistol and the Peacekeeper shotgun is often used by streamers, even though at least the shotgun has caused frustration. It combines a lot of firepower but requires precise aiming from the shooter.
In what situation is it useful? Both weapons are most effective at short and mid-short distances. They are particularly sensible when you play aggressively and want to pressure the opponents. Use them in offensive setups with good attack potential.
The Peacekeeper.
These are the advantages:
both weapons can use a Threat Detector that lets you see opponents through smoke
enormous damage can take down opponents in just a few shots
These are the disadvantages:
if you don’t aim precisely, you quickly lose an encounter due to the required closeness to the opponent
for maximum effectiveness you need the Hop-Ups Precision Choke and Skullpiercer
Alternatives: EVA-8 or R-99 instead of the Peacekeeper
The Wingman.
Longbow/Wingman, for Snipers
What kind of combination is this? The combination of the Longbow sniper rifle and the Wingman pistol covers both long distances and close combat. Additionally, it only requires one type of ammunition. If you enjoy playing as a scout and sniper, this combination is ideal.
In what situation is it useful? The combination is especially suitable for mid-game and for situations where you have a good overview from elevated positions. With the Longbow, you can pick off unprotected opponents. The Wingman, which is also ranked high in our tier list, provides cover when you are ambushed.
The Longbow, a heavy sniper rifle.
These are the advantages:
low ammunition consumption, leaving more space for grenades and healing
ability to take down well-armored opponents effectively
good overview and scouting
These are the disadvantages:
you need two Skullpiercers for maximum effectiveness
both weapons are slow. If you are overrun, you have little chance
Alternatives: EVA-8 or Peacekeeper instead of Wingman, Triple Take with Precision Choke instead of Longbow
What kind of combination is this? This combination consists of the light machine gun Spitfire and the automatic shotgun EVA-8. Although the EVA-8 is often looked down upon, it ranks high on the tier list of top player Dizzy.
In what situation is it useful? Both weapons are well-suited to cover opponents and areas with bullets and shrapnel. You can suppress entire squads or provide fire support for friends.
This is the Spitfire
These are the advantages:
high damage, especially in confined spaces and at close range
large magazines, requiring less frequent reloads in combat
These are the disadvantages:
both weapons consume a lot of ammunition, limiting your inventory space
not suitable for fights beyond medium range
Alternatives: Peacekeeper instead of EVA-8, Devotion with Turbocharger instead of Spitfire
The Devotion is rarely used.
Scout/R-301, the Commando Soldier
What kind of combination is this? The choice of R-301 and Scout is an “all-rounder” choice. The range of both weapons complements each other at all distances, so you will always be at least “good”.
In what situation is it useful? This loadout is suitable for pretty much any situation. You have the right answer for every playstyle and a counter for the opponent at hand.
The R-301 Carbine with 2 firing modes.
These are the advantages:
consistent damage at all distances
high customizability through various attachments
no hop-ups required
These are the disadvantages:
only one ammunition type. If you run out of light ammunition, you have a problem
no weapon is “outstanding” in its category. The combination only becomes stronger with your skill
Alternatives: Hemlok or Flatline instead of R-301
Rarely used: The Hemlok.
R-99/Wingman, the Close Combat Massacre
What kind of combination is this? With the combination of Wingman and R-99, you should play when you want to cause a ruckus. No matter who gets too close, they will regret it and either die or flee.
In what situation is it useful? For any encounter at close range, especially for house battles, like in Skull Town or the Bunker. Here, you can really heat things up for the opponents.
The submachine gun R-99.
These are the advantages:
enormous damage output at close range. The firing rate of the R-99 also helps to drive opponents back
both weapons are quickly reloadable, which is very useful in close-range firefights
These are the disadvantages:
high ammunition consumption of the R-99
hardly effective outside close combat
Alternatives: Peacekeeper instead of Wingman, Alternator instead of R-99
A good alternative: the Alternator
General Tips
When playing, you should pay attention to choosing weapons that suit you. Even the best weapon will not win you the game if you cannot handle it.
Conversely, seemingly weak weapons can become lethal in the right hands. The right movement is also important. With our tips, you can move better.
Our combinations are only a guideline and tips for different playstyles. You should also consider that you may be better or worse suited to certain tactics due to the abilities of various legends.

Anthem will receive another patch on March 12th. We have summarized some highlights of the update that were presented in the last live stream for you here.
In the last live stream about Anthem, lead producer Ben Irving and community manager Jesse Anderson talked about the upcoming changes with the next patch. According to their statement, there are about 300 changes in the patch notes, and there may be up to five fixes included in one change.
The focus of the next patch is clearly on bug fixes and quality of life improvements.
The next patch on March 12th brings some important changes to Anthem.
These are the highlights from the patch on March 12th
Changes will be made: Only some of the upcoming changes were mentioned in the live stream. Additionally, the developers answered some questions from the community. You can find a summary of the stream here in the Anthem subreddit as well as as VoD on Twitch.
Bugs
Many crashes on Xbox One, PS4, and PC are said to be fixed
Work is still being done on: The team continues to review community feedback. Further recurring events, such as “Outlaw Outrage” or “Giant Task”, are in planning. There is also talk of a statistics page.
Work is still ongoing on a major bug: The glitch of the health display, where the Javelin suddenly has less health than it should, has not yet been resolved.
More content is set to be added to Anthem in March, as already announced in the roadmap. The developers are working to have the “Elysian Stronghold Caches” in the game by the end of March.
In Fortnite there is currently a bug that causes players to die instantly at a certain location. Instead of getting upset about it, players actually love this glitch.
Although Epic has already confirmed this as a bug, many players celebrate this glitch. The topic has gained a lot of traction on Reddit, and fans want to keep the bug.
This is why the bug is so loved
This is what’s behind it: Fortnite is affectionately referred to as “Fork Knife” by some players. This joke plays well with Epic, who has already included a truck in the game that says “Fork Knife” on it.
The Fork Knife truck in the game
That is why the knife and fork were also engraved into the ground at Fatal Fields. The fact that a glitch occurs exactly at this spot, which was originally meant as a joke, delights many players.
This is what was initially thought: After the error became known, many players considered it a funny Easter egg. They thought Epic had taken revenge on players for constantly referring to the game as “Fork Knife.” At least, that is what some fans suspected.
There was clarification: Epic weighed in on the topic on Twitter and referred to the issue as a bug. They aim to fix it as soon as possible.
This is what Epic writes about the bug.
This is what players love about the bug: On Twitter, Epic was repeatedly asked after their tweet if they could keep the bug. After all, it fits so well with the story of “Fork Knife.”
There were also other reasons for this. For example, “Srcheeto” wrote: “Do not fix the bug. It’s a knife, and that’s just dangerous!”
Another user writes: “Don’t mess with the Fork Knife! Lmao”
Also, on Reddit , the topic is being discussed. A user writes there: “Haven’t your parents taught you not to play with knives?”
What do you think of the bug? Annoying, or do you find it funny too?
In Destiny 2, the new season changes a lot, but nothing about the vendors in the Tower. There was no vendor reset, which leaves many armor sets useless and the loot pool slim. This frustrates some Guardians.
This is the new hot topic on Reddit: Yesterday, a topic heated up on Reddit about Destiny.
The thread garnered over 7300 upvotes and 857 comments in a short time. This clearly frustrates many.
The accusation: “Bungie wastes creative resources designing legendary ships, ghosts, and sparrows to inflate the loot pool of the Eververse – but this is already the second season without a vendor reset.”
This means all NPCs in the Tower are useless, except to accept bounties, as stated on Reddit.
The 4 Gambit Prime sets in Destiny 2
Loot shooter without new loot
The problem in detail: Generally, players want more loot and variety in Destiny 2, even with the “regular equipment.”
Some Guardians feel that Bungie neglects this aspect of the game:
There are hardly any new weapons to earn.
The only “non-Eververse” and “non-event” set of armor is the 4 new Gambit Prime sets.
Bungie probably expects players to farm the same armor for the 12th time.
Meanwhile, 20 armor sets are useless, and there has been no vendor reset since Forsaken (via reddit). Many armors have been neglected and are currently obsolete, like the “flawless Trials Armor”
Tess Everis, she is the villain again
In contrast, Bungie puts too much energy into the Eververse because it is a constant source of income. This, however, also frustrates people:
Ships and sparrows are useless there and just reskins, and people won’t spend money on that.
Generally, some Guardians suspect Bungie of making the standard armors look “bad and rusty” while making the Eververse armors look “great and shiny.”
What players wish for: A “vendor reset,” as it’s called in Destiny, is actually a “loot exchange.”
Players won’t use their old armors and standard weapons anymore but new ones:
there should be new sets and weapons for activities in the Crucible, in Gambit, in PvE, and in other areas
and also a batch of “newly designed weapons”
That used to happen from time to time in Destiny when a new DLC also brought a “vendor reset” and the countless legendary items in the game were swapped for “new” ones.
This is an important thing for many players who expect a “loot shooter” to regularly provide new loot. They want new outfits for their Guardians, weapons that feel a little different, simply variety in their daily routine.
Harvester in Gambit Prime
Mini-DLCs are tightly packed
This is what it’s about: The three Year 2 expansions of Destiny 2 that are tied to the Annual Pass focus on new features and activities.
They expand the game but do not offer this “loot exchange” anymore, thus not renewing Destiny 2.
The major things of “Season of the Drifter” are clear:
Many players find this too “tightly packed” and would actually prefer a “full expansion” that overhauls all parts of the game and provides them with new content.
Guardian in Gambit Prime
The Eververse is not the problem
In general, there is dissatisfaction with Bungie’s development pace: Destiny 2 is only renewed once a year in September, and the smaller expansions seemingly cannot achieve that according to Bungie’s current plan.
The Eververse is just a symbol of this frustration and a vent where the Guardians’ anger is released. It is not the actual reason for the anger. Guardians are frustrated that it is precisely the Eververse that is being “renewed” while other things are not.
Overall, a difficult situation for Bungie: The players’ expectations do not match what the DLCs of the Annual Pass want and can deliver.
Anarchy Online by Funcom is now 18 years old and has changed significantly during this time. A “Progression Server” has now been launched, allowing a fresh start and bringing players back to the beginning of the online game. However, there is a catch.
A Classic Returns to the Beginning
What is Anarchy Online? The science-fiction MMORPG from Funcom was launched in 2001 and transports you to the world of Rubi-Ka, where the substance Notum is fought over. You create a hero, which you can enhance through augmentations, and participate in the struggle for Notum through missions and PvP battles.
What does the Progression Server of Anarchy Online offer? Rubi-Ka 2019, also called RK2019, presents the game as it was 18 years ago.
You start without addons, with a low level cap and a fresh economy.
Expansions will be added over time, as well as a gradual increase of the level cap.
All characters must be recreated; it is not possible to transfer existing heroes.
There is a limited item store, which does not include all items from the regular shop.
The existing game code is used. This means that there is no reset of systems such as damage control, fall damage, XP loss, improvement point menu (IP menu), or PvP to an older version.
How do you participate? You need to subscribe to the RK2019 server, which costs about 15 dollars per month. You can only play for free on the existing worlds.
What is special about this server? According to Funcom, RK2019 will only be open for one year – this plan may change, however. If you want to participate, you should hurry. Once RK2019 is shut down, your characters will be lost. They will not be transferred to the regular servers.
How are players reacting to RK2019?Anarchy Online is a special game for many MMORPG veterans. Not only did it represent an entry point into the genre for many, it also distinguished itself from competitors through its science-fiction setting and systems like augmentations. Accordingly, early fans are particularly enthusiastic.
However, there is also criticism. The subscription is about 15 dollars, which many feel is too high for a game that is 18 years old. Furthermore, there is confusion over the fact that the classic server is set to shut down after one year and that there is no option to transfer characters afterwards.
rainghost says on Reddit: “I was interested, but it looks like the server is only supposed to run for a year and then be shut down. After the shutdown, characters cannot be transferred to the live server and will disappear forever. That sounds really dumb to me.”
When does the new server start? The Progression Server for Anarchy Online has already started yesterday.
Since FIFA 14, the FUT birthday has been celebrated in Ultimate Team, getting bigger and with more content each year. Therefore, this year, new special cards, special packs, gift sets, and thematic SBCs are also expected in FUT 19.
Official information is still pending. However, specific predictions can be made from the insights of previous years.
Before FUT Birthday, by the way, the Carnival in FUT 19 is celebrated. You can find out what to expect in the link.
Expected Release and Duration of the Event
When does it start? FIFA Ultimate Team was first released on March 19, 2009. Since then, the FUT Birthday event has always taken place annually in mid-March. Therefore, we expect a start on March 15.
How long will the event last? The event is expected to last a week, ending on March 22.
However, these timings are not yet confirmed.
The Possible Contents of the Event
What cards will be available? It is customary for EA to release a FUT Birthday Team. This team includes 23 players whose overall rating and stats are significantly improved. These players are usually fan favorites from past FUT installments.
During last year’s FUT Birthday event, some stars received special cards in unusual positions. For instance, David Alaba was available as a central midfielder and Gareth Bale as a left-back.
Will there be SBCs? We can definitely expect SBCs. Normally, there are numerous SBCs throughout the entire event. It is likely that more FUT Birthday cards will be added and can be unlocked through SBCs.
Instead, special cards of Irish players were released alongside the FUT Birthday event. These could be used in SBCs to unlock additional FUT Birthday cards. This could very well happen again this year.
How to Get the New Cards?
How to get the cards: The special cards can be obtained from packs during the duration of the event. The FUT Birthday special cards replace their normal versions. The odds of pulling these players do not change.
Additionally, there will be the opportunity to purchase the cards through the transfer market.
And certainly, there will be promo sets distributed throughout the event. Lightning Rounds are also to be expected.
FUT Birthday in FIFA 18: Contents from Last Year
The FUT Birthday Team 2018:Last year, there was a pretty strong team for the FUT Birthday. A whole lot of superstars were represented, including: Cristiano Ronaldo RF (95), Gareth Bale LV (90), Eden Hazard RF (92), and Marco Reus MS (90).
