New MMORPG A:IR showcases solo dungeons and they look great

In the MMORPG A:IR – Ascent Infinite Realm, you will also experience adventures in solo dungeons – and these look very interesting.

New screenshots of the air combat MMO A:IR now show some of these dungeons and the creatures awaiting you there.

Pretty Dungeons in A:IR

This is what the dungeons look like: The screenshots showcase some of the dungeons. In these, you will encounter massive monsters, which you must face alone – after all, these are solo dungeons.

What are solo dungeons? In A:IR, you will occasionally venture alone. If you enjoy solo content, you will find several single-player dungeons in the game world that you can enter alone.

  • You fight monsters in the dungeons
  • You will face many challenges
  • In the end, it’s your task to defeat a boss
  • You can look forward to plenty of loot

Group Content Also Planned

Are there group dungeons as well? A:IR is an MMORPG, so group content is the focus. While there are also solo dungeons, you can also try your hand at group dungeons, where teamwork and cooperation are important to defeat the enemies and bosses, overcome challenges, and secure the loot.

How do players react? Fans particularly appreciate the graphics of the game. However, voices are also heard in the official forum questioning the purpose of solo dungeons in an MMORPG. Players wish that the developers focus on group content.

When does A:IR launch? The closed beta of the game, which was originally planned for 2018 here, will no longer take place this year. A new date has not yet been announced. However, this also means that the beta will not start until 2019 and the release will be correspondingly delayed. Nonetheless, it is likely that Ascent: Infinite Realm will officially launch in 2019.

Subtle update for Red Dead Online brings Christmas spirit

The online mode of Red Dead Redemption 2, Red Dead Online, has received a subtle Christmas update. Festive saloon music awaits you.

In many games, Christmas events are starting right now, providing players with gifts and bonuses. In Red Dead Online, a rather inconspicuous update has been activated.

What’s new? The pianists in the saloons of Red Dead Online have dusted off the old sheet music and are now playing festive songs.

Christmas songs across the map of Red Dead Online

On social networks, players are reporting that they hear Christmas music on the map of Red Dead Online. In the saloons, you can hear songs like Jingle Bells, Silent Night, Deck the Halls, and many more.

Video presents all Christmas songs: The YouTube video by Tony StrongStyle shows an overview of the various songs that are now played in Red Dead Online.

This creates a friendly Christmas atmosphere in many places in the game. While players shoot each other in duels on the streets, they get into the Christmas spirit in the saloon with festive music. This is sure to please this player, who is wandering through Red Dead Online as Santa Claus, distributing gifts.

Red Dead Redemption 2 Arthur Morgan

What do the players say? More and more videos of the Christmas songs in Red Dead Online are appearing on Reddit and Twitter. One user writes, “Even though there’s no snow on the entire map, the pianists have found a way to share their Christmas spirit.”

How players enjoy the songs: Overall, the opinion on this update is positive. User AnadyranTontine writes that he actually hates Christmas music. But these songs in Red Dead Online put a big grin on his face.

Apparently, the Christmas songs are not just played on the piano. Player CheeseForPeas writes: “The banjo guy in Rhodes also played Christmas songs today. Put me in the Christmas spirit for my killing spree.”

Player dominikbalotelli writes that he listened to the pianist for half an hour when he was playing in Valentine. It would have been too good not to listen.

Red Dead Redemption 2 SChnee

Players wish for snow: It would be a nice addition if it snowed in Red Dead Online. Some players would wish for that. User ryebreadryan writes: “I hope we get snow like in GTA Online. At least in the corresponding states.” In GTA Online, the snow event starts in a few hours.

Others point out that there is currently no winter clothing in Red Dead Online, and they would probably freeze to death. So, the developers would first need to distribute warm coats, so that the snow doesn’t negatively affect players.

Don’t worry, Battlefield 5 hasn’t forgotten the gifts for Medics

After there were gifts in the form of free weapons for some classes in Battlefield 5, Medic players were worried that their class was forgotten. However, there will be something for the Medics at Christmas.

What happened? In Battlefield 5, there are gifts already before Christmas. Since yesterday, players can secure two new weapons. The firearms come from the predecessor Battlefield 1 and are available for all fans.

That’s why Medic players were concerned: Players on Reddit are excited about this gift. The two weapons, the Ribeyerolles 1918 assault rifle and the M1897 shotgun, can only be used by the Assault and Supply classes.

BF5 Revival

Thus, not all classes benefit from this gift. Especially Medics complained that their class once again does not receive enough love from the developers. In their current arsenal, Medics could really use additional firepower.

This is what the developers say: In a Twitter conversation with a fan, DICE stated that they certainly have not forgotten the Medics. A fan asked there whether there will also be something nice for the Medic at Christmas. After all, other classes have received weapons. However, the Medic is currently left empty-handed.

In response, DICE’s Multiplayer Producer, David Sirland, replied with a brief “Yes :)”

Battlefield 5 Title Soldier on the Ground

What will the Medics get for Christmas now? This is still unknown. Sirland did not go into further details during the conversation. However, numerous Medic players already have enough of the brief response to look forward eagerly to the gift for their beloved class.

Meanwhile, fans already have their own theories about what they might expect. On one hand, new weapons in the form of SMGs are also expected here. After all, there are still some weapons that were discovered through data mining but are not yet in the game.

However, since Sirland did not explicitly say there would be weapons, fans are also considering new gadgets or even abilities as possibilities. Some even hope for an auto-heal function for nearby allies, as seen in some predecessors of Battlefield 5.

Currently, all of this remains speculation, but the gifts for Medics should not take too long to arrive. Whether there will be something specifically for Recon is still unknown.

WoW: Blizzard wants to soon prevent this turbo leveling method

Some players are currently leveling their twinks from level 110 to 120 in Turbo. World of Warcraft wants to change that and is considering adjustments.

WoW Blood Elf Silvermoon shocked title

In World of Warcraft, there are currently many ways to achieve the last levels from 110 to 120. Whether through quests, PvP, island expeditions, or the new faction incursions, there are several ways to quickly gain experience. However, this also leads to the exploitation of certain systems that Blizzard did not consider.

Players offer “island level runs”: Those who already have one or two characters at max level are currently leveling particularly fast through island expeditions. The business with small leveling groups is even booming right now.

Two characters team up, both at level 110, with perfect legendaries and amazing gear, and boost a third player to level 120 on Turbo. Since the two “providers” have activated an XP stop, they themselves do not level up, and their gear is always top-notch for the island expeditions.

WoW Island Expedition Beach

Since the enemies on the island scale with the personal level, they can comfortably boost the “customer” from level 110 to 120, often in just a few hours.

Blizzard wanted to deactivate level stop: To counter this behavior, Blizzard announced in the official forum that they would deactivate the level stop for players at level 110 and above. This was actually intended so that players could remain in certain phases of low-level PvP and not to halt progress in the current content and exploit mechanics.

WoW Island Level Comment 2

Only a few hours after this announcement, Blizzard responded again, stating that they “thought about it again” and would not implement the change for now. The developers are looking for other solutions that would be more elegant.

Change is coming, but when? One thing is clear: Blizzard does not want “turbo leveling,” where 2 players stay at level 110 and bring another to 120. Those using this method should hurry—because Blizzard might find another solution to this “problem” soon.

Have you also been “boosted through islands” to level up quickly? Do you think it’s good and sensible that Blizzard wants to put a stop to it?

Fallout 76 outlines 1st update 2019, announces new PvP mode

The PvP in Fallout 76 is mainly perceived as “half-baked” by fans of player-vs-player battles. However, that is supposed to change in 2019.

Bethesda teases a new game mode for the upcoming year that is likely to be particularly interesting for PvP fans.

PvP is being revamped

What has been announced? The developers explained that a new game mode is currently in the works, where you collaborate in teams – or not – without the previous PvP restrictions. The mode is already being internally tested. It is set to go live in the first quarter of 2019.

fallout 76 pvp

What could this mode be? It is rather unlikely that Bethesda will ease the current restrictions in PvP and implement open PvP with full damage throughout the game world next year. However, PvE seems to play an important role here as well, since you will still cooperate with other players.

  • It’s more likely that there will be an additional “flag” that you can activate, which would directly signal your readiness for “complete” PvP, meaning that your first shot will deal full damage.
  • There may also be PvP-oriented group events where damage is fully active when you participate.
  • It could also be conceivable that special PvP servers are introduced. So, if you want to engage in PvP without restrictions, the game would connect you to appropriate servers.

Players are excited for the upcoming year

What are fans expecting? In the official Fallout 76 forum, PvP is a hotly debated topic. The discussions also show that it is difficult to find a middle ground.

Some wish for the complete abolition of PvP restrictions, while others hope that this will not be the case. Still, others believe that PvP servers will come.

fallout-76-brotherhood-of-steel

What else is coming in 2019? A new update with several fixes is scheduled for mid-January, including for perk cards and duplicated robots. The patch notes are expected to detail changes based on developer notes starting in 2019.

The Elder Scrolls Online excites fans for major content in 2019

2019 will be a fantastic year for the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online, according to Creative Director Rich Lambert.

What to expect in 2019? What can fans of ESO expect in the coming year? Creative Director Rich Lambert wrote in a letter to the community that he cannot reveal anything concrete yet. However, ESO will turn five years old, and this should be celebrated accordingly.

The story and the adventures that ESO fans will experience in 2019 are supposed to be something very special due to the anniversary.

Elder Scrolls Online Argonian battle

When will we learn more? At the beginning of 2019, the team wants to reveal initial information about the upcoming content. Then, fans will slowly be able to piece together the puzzle to find out what the new story will be about.

What’s next?

What could we expect? In January 2017, Zenimax announced the expansion Morrowind, followed by the announcement of the expansion Summerset in March 2018. It is therefore expected that we will see another expansion in the coming year, with an announcement at the beginning of the year.

We might explore more of the Khajiit realm of Elsweyr or perhaps venture beyond the borders of Tamriel.

the elder scrolls online minotaur

What does the community want? In addition to new content in previously unaddressed countries of the continent Tamriel, fans are discussing a number of improvements they wish for ESO in the official forum. These are even more important to many than new content. They include:

  • Performance optimizations
  • Improvements to the housing editor
  • Adjustments to enemy respawning
  • A revamp of the combat system
  • Improvements to console controls
  • A new class

At the beginning of the coming year, we will likely learn a bit more about what Zenimax has planned for The Elder Scrolls Online in 2019.

Destiny 2: Quest for the Izanami Forge receives a lot of criticism – Rightfully so?

The third forge in Destiny 2 is now live. However, the quest to ignite the Izanami forge has been criticized by many players. What is going on?

What happened? With the weekly reset on December 18, the third of a total of four forges from the Black Armory was added to the game.

D2_Black_Armory_Press_Kit_Ada_01

As with the two predecessors Völundr and Gofannon, igniting the Izanami forge is tied to a quest. However, many fans believe Bungie has overdone it with the tasks for the new forge. Some players truly have to push themselves to complete the quest or simply skip it altogether. But why?

Here’s how igniting the new forge works: The quest consists of multiple steps and several visits to Ada-1, the merchant of the Black Armory, in the Tower. In short: You find the forge, realize it is broken, and spend most of your time repairing the igniter.

During this, you need to kill 100 Vex here, take down 20 Minotaurs there, farm a ton of materials, play missions, and visit Ada-1 from time to time. At the end, there’s an even tougher version of the “Terminus of Insight” strike – with a recommended power level of 640, no matchmaking, and guaranteed to kick you to orbit if the entire team wipes.

You can find a guide for the Izanami forge here: Unlocking the Izanami Forge – Here’s how

D2_Black_Armory_Press_Kit_Forge1_07

What’s the problem with the new forge? The quest to unlock the Izanami forge is the most extensive of all forge quests so far.

However, as soon as you tackle the task, you quickly realize: The quest progression is not really creative. This task offers little new content.

Instead, Guardians spend between three and five hours grinding through tedious and monotonous farm tasks, which feel strongly like filler and content stretching. All of this takes place in already known locations with familiar enemies.

Particularly, the strike poses challenges for solo players, as the level requirement is high, there is no matchmaking, and you have to start over if the entire fireteam or you alone dies there.

D2_Black_Armory_Press_Kit_Gear_04

In numerous Reddit posts, fans are expressing their frustration and disappointment. Many state that they really have to push themselves to even complete this boring and artificially stretched quest line. They certainly won’t put themselves through this on a second or third character. After all, the forge is unlocked individually for each Guardian when ignited.

Many players give up midway through the quest or completely refrain from unlocking the third forge. This type of content provides no motivation to even take on this task. After the two predecessors and with these new steps, the enthusiasm has waned for quite a few players.

D2_Black_Armory_Press_Kit_Gear_03

Fans are currently discussing: A discussion has arisen in the community about whether the forge quest is really the kind of content players want. On one side are fans saying “You wanted more grind, and here you have it”. On the other side is the majority of players who retort, “Yes, but not like this”.

Playing all three characters, this one unlock quest for a single forge takes between 10 and 15 hours of gameplay. Most of that is monotonous and, above all, essentially pointless grind, which brings little to the player besides unlocking the forge.

No one is forced to play all this content in one go and to unlock the forge immediately. However, when players are told a new forge is live, it can be assumed that many Guardians will want to unlock it right away and start crafting new weapons there.

However, whether such quest design will succeed in exciting the Guardians for this remains questionable for many players. A large portion of players apparently will not put themselves through this on more than one character. And some may not do so at all.

Mark your calendars, because the next Community Day is starting soon.

When does the Community Day in January start? On Saturday, January 12, 2019, it kicks off. The event time, as usual, is from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM.

GMT+0? In the in-game announcement, Niantic states that the event time in Europe runs from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM UTC (GMT+0). Our time zone is GMT+1, which is why the Community Day will run as usual from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM.

What bonuses are there?

  • The distance to hatch eggs in Pokémon GO will be reduced to a quarter
  • Lures will last 3 hours instead of 30 minutes

What special move is available? The special event move can be taught to Feraligatr. It is not yet known what move it is. If it goes as usual, Feraligatr will likely learn Hydro Pump. This attack was also learned by Blastoise.

Move can be learned after Community Day

To learn the special Community Day move, Croconaw must be evolved into Feraligatr during or after the event. Only then will you get Feraligatr with the special move. You will have until one hour after the end of the event during the Community Day in January 2019 to develop your Croconaw.

Typically, shiny forms of the event Pokémon also appear in-game on such a Community Day. Therefore, we show you a preview of Croconaw, Quilava, and Feraligatr in their normal and shiny forms.

After a severe loot bug, WoW bans the exploiters

As gained, so lost. Numerous Horde players exploited a bug in World of Warcraft. This now leads to account penalties.

Horde players discovered a significant error in Patch 8.1 Tides of Vengeance. While battling the world boss “Ivus the Forest Lord”, who appears at Darkshore, a bug occurred. As a result, numerous players were able to loot a lot of items that they weren’t supposed to have.

WoW Ivus Forest Lord title

What happened? When Patch 8.1 went live in WoW a week ago, the Horde could immediately defeat the world boss “Ivus the Forest Lord”. However, this boss had no “loot lockout”. This meant that players could repeatedly kill the boss for a chance at loot. Since Ivus drops three strong items per class, some of which can also be upgraded, some players had a significant advantage.

What penalties are there? Blizzard has since fixed the issue and is taking action against the players who exploited this error. Not only will the looted items be taken away from them, but also the Titan Residuum obtained from the loot, which can be used to buy powerful items. Additionally, the corresponding account will be suspended for a while, depending on the severity and number of repetitions. Those who exploited this bug probably won’t be able to play WoW in the coming days.

WoW Human No Blood Elf Rogue cry title

Players find treatment unfair: The affected and apparently some uninvolved players find Blizzard’s actions questionable. After all, according to their statements, it is the developers’ fault that the bug even exists.

Players should at most have their items taken away, but no further penalties should be imposed. On the other hand, a large part of the players finds the penalties appropriate. After all, everyone should be aware that such loot behavior can only be a mistake.

What do you think of this incident? Do you find the penalties justified? Or is the fault clearly with Blizzard and the players are just victims?

Fortnite hat nun den Modus für alle, die finden: „Früher war alles besser“

Fortnite: Battle Royale now receives new game modes daily for the event “14 Days of Fortnite”. One of them is called “Classic” and is ideal for those who are fed up with the current meta.

This is what the new mode is about: The Christmas event 14 Days of Fortnite from update 7.10 introduced the first game mode “Classic”. In this mode, there are only weapons and items from the first two seasons of Fortnite. This is the time before the game became a massive hit, as that really took off with Season 3.

The contents of Fortnite Classic

Ramirez-Fortnite

These features are included in the Classic game mode: First of all, the mode brings back all weapons and items from Season 1 and 2, and only those. So you cannot use vehicles; there are no planes. Turrets are also not included, and those who like the heavy assault rifle or the submachine gun will search in vain for them.

Instead, there are ancient weapons like the tactical submachine gun. It has long been out of the game, but here it is back in. Also, the semi-automatic sniper rifle or the old revolver.

By the way, you always play in Squads mode here; there are no other modes.

Fortnite-Sturm

What is not included in the Classic mode: If you were looking forward to the old map, then unfortunately you are out of luck in the Classic mode. Because the map is still the same as in Season 7. And Epic has not reversed gameplay changes either.

The Double-Shotgun is also something you will search for in vain. Therefore, the Classic mode is not completely a time travel to the beginnings of Fortnite.

Loading Screen Fortnite 2

Who is the Classic mode ideal for? Nevertheless, the new mode is likely to find some fans. Because anyone who wants to play a few cozy rounds of Battle Royale without vehicles and especially without planes will surely have a lot of fun here.

How long does the new mode last? Unfortunately, the Classic mode is likely to remain in the game only until the afternoon of December 20th. Starting at 3 PM, the new mode should already make way for another. However, Epic may bring back the Classic mode during the 14 Days of Fortnite, possibly even with the old map!

This is how you get the loot from the first challenge of the Christmas event.

Fortnite: Grimy Greens is now a new area in The Block

In Fortnite: Battle Royale the first fan-designed area has finally been officially established. It will be called Grimy Greens and will appear on the “Block”. The new location is now in the game.

Update: Grimy Greens can now be found in the game. At least until Epic replaces it with a new location from the rotation.

What does the new area look like? The new location in Fortnite is an enclosed area resembling a type of industrial greenhouse facility. The new location has the following highlights:

  • Dense vegetation inside the greenhouse halls
  • Cornfields
  • Flat roofs with many air conditioning units and other structures providing ample cover
  • A hangar where a plane is also located
  • An open space in front of the buildings, where wild shootouts are expected

Who invented it? The creator of the new area calls himself “Kaancitak”. He is likely the first player to have created an official area in Fortnite.

Where can you find Grimy Greens? Grimy Greens will be located in the northeast of the map, at the spot where the movie theater Risky Reels used to be. There is now “The Block“. Regularly, fan creations selected by Epic are showcased there. Grimy Greens will thus be the first fan creation to have made it into the game.

New area Grimy Greens comes later

When will Grimy Greens arrive? However, Grimy Greens is not yet officially in the game at the time of this news. The new area has been presented, but not yet implemented. Epic has not yet announced a date but intends to do so as soon as possible.

fn-kreativmodus-titel-01

I want to see the new area right now! Well, then go into the Creative mode and use the code 8641-0487-1161 there. This way, you can already visit Grimy Greens and prepare the best tactics and strategies.

What do you think of the new area? Does a huge greenhouse fit Fortnite? Or shouldn’t one have brought one of the many, somewhat well-made Call of Duty maps that have also emerged in the Creative mode?

This is the 1st prize of “14 Days of Fortnite” – and this is how to get it

In Fortnite: Battle Royale the first challenge of the “14 Days of Fortnite” event has started today. Here you will learn everything about the new task, the loot, and why you need the Creative mode for it.

What is 14 Days of Fortnite? This is the big Christmas event in Fortnite from Update 7.10, where new game modes and challenges appear every day. So it’s a kind of Advent calendar for Fortnite fans.

Fortnite Gingerbread

What is the first task? Today, on December 19, the first of these challenges started. You need to create a server in Creative mode or join one. What’s the deal with that?

How to complete the 1st challenge in Fortnite’s Creative mode

The wording of the task is: Open a Creative mode server or join one.

It sounds more complicated than it is. Because you really just need to start a match in Creative mode by clicking the large button at the bottom right.

fn-challenge-tag-1-02

Alternatively, you can also join a server of your friends or any players. A good idea might be a server where the newly introduced new location Grimy Greens can be seen. This location was created in Creative mode and can also be viewed there.

Once you have entered the server, you can log out again and you will receive your reward.

Help, nothing happens when I click the button! Patience, young Padawan. As a warning already indicates, Fortnite’s servers are currently a bit overloaded. Therefore, there may be longer wait times and issues. In our editorial office, it worked after a few minutes, so stay persistent.

fn-challenge-tag-1-01

What do I get for all this work? The reward from the 1st challenge of 14 Days of Fortnite is a spray paint with a Christmas ornament. It also says “GG” on it.

I want to grab more stuff! Then log back in tomorrow afternoon and see what the 2nd challenge has in store.

Otherwise, you can also try your hand at the tasks from week 2:

Your Guardian’s thoughts on the new, crazy story twist in Destiny 2

The story of Destiny 2 will continue this week with a special cutscene. The MeinMMO community has already commented extensively and discussed what they think of the new development.

The leaks were right once again: Since the weekly reset on December 18, a new cutscene has been live in Destiny 2, which had been unofficially revealed some time ago.

After the Guardians were wondering when the scene would finally be officially visible in the game, you can admire it since this week when you visit the Queen’s Court. Some of you have already had your audience or read our article on the topic and have already been actively commenting.

We want to highlight your comments on the new turn. However, be aware that this is about the story. If you do not want to know what the cutscene is about, you should not continue reading!

The MeinMMO Guardians are already concocting their own theories

This is what the players say on MeinMMO: Many of you have already spoken out in our other posts about the revival of Uldren and this time you haven’t held back either.

While your previous comments in the other articles were more about avenging Cayde-6’s death, the Dark Prince seems to be getting off a bit better this time.

User vvV AmNesiA Vvv, however, still seems to hold a small grudge: “If it were up to me, I would destroy Uldren’s ghost and send him to the afterlife. I don’t like his face and in the end, he is responsible for Cayde’s death. Regardless of whether he can remember it or not. Plead ‘not guilty’ or what? No, he doesn’t belong to us Guardians. That’s my opinion.”

destiny-uldren-sov

The Loki seems to want to give Uldren a chance: “What if every Guardian was a huge asshole before their Guardian life or a serial killer? What if our character was a huge asshole who is responsible for the deaths of many innocents?”

Yolo Trololo, on the other hand, finds the story appealing: “Cayde said that whoever kills him will become the new leader of the Hunters. And now a ghost awakens Uldren again (who will not remember his previous life afterward). After all, Uldren is a fighter. That’s what ghosts are looking for. I find this turn quite crazy and entertaining. Expectations and the good/evil scheme are not fulfilled at all.”

Cyber appoints himself Uldren’s bodyguard: “He is now a newly born Guardian. One of us. Anyone who does not understand this and wants to harm him would have to be personally taken out by my Golden Gun. Greetings to Callum. #teamuldren #uldrendidnothingwrong”

André Wettinger, however, does not trust Mara Sov: “But story-wise, this is nasty. The Queen cooks her own soup. Since her brother was resurrected by the Traveler, this is not exactly flattering for her. You could say he was assimilated.”

destiny-königin-mara-sov

Z3ratul agrees: “I think that Uldren’s awakening as a Guardian is part of the Queen’s plan. I thought I had read that the Queen “manipulated” a ghost that has been looking for its Guardian for centuries and this ghost has now resurrected Uldren.”

Psycheater seems to want to wait and see what Bungie has in store: “I am really curious about what Bungie will make of this incredible story potential.”

You are welcome to continue commenting: What do you believe Bungie still has in store for the story? What would you wish for?

Battlefield 5: Players are looking forward to the new gift weapons

Battlefield 5 is distributing Christmas gifts in the form of two weapons. Both weapons were already available in the predecessor. Fans are excited.

Dice is apparently giving gifts to the players of Battlefield 5 for Christmas. Players can now secure two weapons.

Both weapons come from the predecessor Battlefield 1. They are an assault rifle and a shotgun.

Battlefield 5 Devastation

2 new weapons if you log in on time

What weapons are they? Players receive an assault rifle for the Assault class, support players get a shotgun:

  • Assault Rifle: Ribeyerolles 1918 for the assault soldier
  • Shotgun: M1897 for the support soldier

How do you get these weapons? You just need to log in by January 3, 2019. Those who don’t make it online in time can also buy the weapons with Company Coins. You can find the weapons in your Company menu.

Battlefield-V-5-MAIN

What kind of weapons are these?

Both weapons could already be played in Battlefield 1. Notably, the Ribeyerolles 1918 stands out.

Ribeyerolles 1918 Assault Rifle

What kind of weapon is this? It is an assault rifle with a lower rate of fire than most other weapons in this category. It is particularly precise and has a high range.

Players are already celebrating this assault rifle for its precision. Those who want to use it must choose the Assault class.

battlefield 5 ribeye

M1897 Shotgun

What kind of weapon is this? This shotgun also comes from Battlefield 1. It is only for the Support class and expands its small arsenal of shotguns with a strong alternative. It is a pump-action shotgun with a good 1-hit kill distance.

However, it does not stand out quite as positively as the Ribeyerolles.

battlefield 5 m1897

The fans are in the Christmas spirit

This is how the community reacts: In the subreddit for Battlefield 5, fans are mostly pleased. Many praise the Ribeyerolles as a very good weapon, like SerDmon: “I have played the Ribeyerolles for an hour now. It’s really fun.”

After recent tensions regarding the time-to-kill changes, fans were rather disappointed. However, DICE responded and reverted them. Thus, fans are now more conciliatory.

xxjigsawv3 also expresses gratitude:

The Christmas gift was to revert the change to the time to kill. […] Thank you, Dice, for listening to the community! That’s why we keep playing!

Thus, Battlefield 5 is likely going into the Christmas break with a good mood.

Fallout 76 fixes a bug that caused enemies to heal instantly

Fallout 76 has received a new patch that fixes several bugs. The patch is just a small hotfix, but it addresses a problem that has been bothering the community for quite some time.

This is what the patch brings: On December 19, a new patch for Fallout 76 was released. This fixes bugs on PC that caused the game to crash and implements the Korean language.

In addition, players using explosive ammunition and certain weapons can now deal damage to enemies properly again. The enemies no longer heal immediately against it.

Server Maintenance on December 19 – Patch Notes

The following bugs will be fixed: Bethesda has published the patch notes for the new hotfix in an official blog post. They are quite brief. Among other things, bugs were fixed on PC that

  • caused the game to crash when quitting.
  • allowed outdated clients to connect to the game and caused errors.

The developers have also fixed an exploit that allowed players to duplicate items. It should no longer be possible to double weapons and armor.

Finally normal damage again: Additionally, a bug in Fallout 76 has been resolved that has been causing frustration for some players for a long time. For weapons that deal a lot of damage, there was a long-standing problem where the enemies did not receive the intended damage.

von Benedict Grothaus

While the projectiles hit and caused damage, the enemies almost simultaneously healed by nearly the same amount. It was nearly impossible to kill enemies.

This bug should now be fixed on all consoles. Players can now deal the intended damage again using explosive ammunition, high-damage weapons, and explosives.

Fallout 76 Fatman in front of a nuke

How big is the patch? This time, the hotfix is a smaller patch. However, it varies in size across different platforms.

  • Xbox players will download several hundred MB
  • PC players wanting to play in Korean, as well as PS4 players in Asia (excluding Japan), will also download several hundred MB
  • PC players not wanting to play in Korean will download less
  • PS4 players in America, Europe, and Japan do not need to download a hotfix at all

The Korean language pack could already be downloaded on consoles, which is why the actual patch on December 19 is smaller.

The patch is likely to be the last one for 2018. Fallout 76 already has some plans for 2019.

Destiny 2: Unlocking the Izanami Forge – Here’s how‘s

In Destiny 2, the Forge 3, the Izanami Forge, can now be ignited. What you need to do to unlock it, and how to complete the Pillars Integration on Heroic mode, you will learn in this guide.

Since the weekly reset on December 18, the now third forge of the Black Armory is waiting to be found and ignited. We will show you all the steps needed to unlock the Izanami Forge.

How to ignite the previous two forges can be seen here:

Igniting the Izanami Forge – Here’s what you need to do

D2_Black_Armory_Press_Kit_Forge3_02

Just like with the previous two forges, you must master numerous steps on your way to the Izanami Forge before you can ignite it. But this time, you need to prepare for an enormous grind. The level requirement of some steps is at 630 or even higher, so it’s best to bring a solid fireteam.

Get the Vex Transponder

To get the quest for the new forge, you first need to find a Vex Transponder. This device drops randomly from any Vex enemies.

It’s best to fly to Nessus. There are numerous areas where only Vex spawn. Once you have the transponder, the first quest step will become available.

Charge the Vex Transponder

d2 lost sector planetenmaschine

You now need to defeat 100 Vex on Nessus to charge the device. It’s best to go to the Lost Sector “The Planet Machine” in the Artifact’s Edge area.

There you should find enough Vex. Go in, kill all Vex, and complete the Lost Sector again until you have the needed kills. Then the transponder is activated.

Heroic Pillars Integration

d2 nessus senke

In this step, you need to complete the public event Pillars Integration on Heroic mode. It’s important that the event is completed in the area of the Sink on Nessus. In other areas, the Public Event will not count for you.

How to trigger the Pillars Integration on heroic mode can be found in this guide: How to trigger all Heroic Events in Destiny 2

Kill Vex Minotaurs

Now the quest requires you to take down Vex Minotaurs in the areas

  • Artifact’s Edge
  • Sink
  • Grove of Echoes
  • and Guardian’s Grave
d2 mino locations

to calibrate the Vex Transponder.

This step can take some time, as it can be really hard to find Minotaurs that are not immediately wiped out by other players. If you find an instance without other players, try to farm there for as long as possible.

Forge Mission “Bring the Flames Back to Life”

The next quest step sends you on the mission “Bring the Flames Back to Life”. The level requirement is at Power Level 630. So make sure you are at least close to the recommendation or are in a strong fireteam.

The mission will be displayed on the Nessus map in the Sink area and is self-explanatory. Just follow its course. Essentially, it’s about hacking some Vex pillars and finally defeating a big forge boss. Then you will get a broken Izanami igniter that you need to bring to Ada-1 in the Tower.

More Public Events

Once you have visited Ada-1 in the Tower, she will send you back to complete more public events. Specifically, you need to

on heroic mode. How you start the respective events on heroic mode can be learned by clicking on the individual events.

Some users even report that for the Witches Ritual and Glimmer Extraction, the normal event is sufficient to successfully complete the respective quest step.

Collect Materials for the Izanami Igniter

In the last step, you have repaired the broken Izanami igniter and received a renewed igniter. However, it is still not fully functional. You first need to collect more materials. The following is required:

D2 gefallene gebiet etz ba

For this, a tour through the Lost Sectors in the EDC area of the European Dead Zone is recommended. If you manage multiple kills in a row, almost every precision kill will give an Ether item. Each item provides 2-3% progress.

d2 schmiede 3 io ls

Simply run through the Lost Sector “Bone Sanctum” in the area of The Rift on Io 5 times. You should collect enough Condensed Blight by destroying Taken Blights.

For the Radiolaria Mist, you need to complete another mission on Nessus. This is highlighted on the map of Nessus and is self-explanatory. Just follow the mission flow. The recommended level for the mission is 630. In summary, you need to demonstrate your jumping skills and hack some Vex pillars.

Once you have collected all the materials, you will receive the next quest step.

Charge the Izanami Igniter at the Völundr Forge

D2_Black_Armory_Press_Kit_Forge1_07

To charge the igniter for the Izanami Forge, you need to go to the Völundr Forge in the EDC on Earth and successfully complete an entire match. There are no additional tasks or new mechanics. Once that is done, you need to visit Ada-1 in the Tower again.

Advanced “Terminus of Insight” Strike

When you visit Ada-1 in the Tower, she will assign you to complete the Strike Terminus of Insight in a harder version. You can find it on the map of Nessus. The Strike Boss will drop a Cabal component at the end, with which the igniter can be fully repaired.

destiny_2_Kriegsgeist_ps4_insight_terminus_strike

The Strike has a Power Level of 630 and does not feature matchmaking! The modifiers are Voidburn, Grenadier, and Extinguished. If the entire team dies, you will go back to orbit. Also, your gear will be locked. So, you should bring a strong team and clarify your gear in advance if you want to master the strike.

Ignite the Izanami Forge

Now you can finally ignite the Izanami Forge. To do this, you need to go to the new forge and bring the boss, a Vex Hydra, to its knees. Now return to Ada-1 in the Tower. There you will receive a new weapon form that can be completed and upgraded in the usual way.

The third forge is now unlocked and can be started regularly. You can now forge additional weapons from the arsenal of the Black Armory.

Die 10 meistgekauften Spiele der MeinMMO-Community

When MeinMMO posts a deal, some of you shop through our affiliate links. Here is a list of the most purchased games by the MeinMMO users.

We present the most purchased games since October and link to the corresponding offer from Amazon. Don’t be surprised, there might be one or two surprises along the way. Battlefield V does not appear in the top 10 – nor do PC games. However, the Switch dominates the Christmas season and brings joy to (children’s) eyes under the tree.

Before the list begins, a big thank you to everyone who shops through our affiliate links.

Marvel’s Spider Man – Place 10

Marvel's Spider Man
Fist fights are for beginners. It’s much more fun to take out the opponents creatively.

What is Spider-Man? More than just another mediocre licensed game. Spider-Man is a real open-world adventure where you swing through Manhattan and beat up gangsters – in a spectacular way. It’s nice that the PS4-exclusive title has an original story that remains motivating over the long term.

Oops, unfortunately this affiliate widget is no longer available.

Who is Spider Man suitable for? For players who enjoy cool brawls in an open world – and for all Spider-Man fans. The superhero’s acrobatics come across beautifully, and the story captivates you. But you must not have an allergy to icons and side quests, as there are almost too many in Spider-Man.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild – Place 9

zelda
Just searching for the perfect mount can keep you busy for hours – without getting bored.

What is Zelda: Breath of the Wild? The most ambitious project yet from the Zelda creators. Link traverses the wilderness of Hyrule, fights, crafts, and tames wild mounts. You can strictly follow the very well-written main story about series villain Ganon or explore the vast world on your own. Even though the game is nearly two years old, you can still purchase it.

Oops, unfortunately this affiliate widget is no longer available.

Who is Zelda: Breath of the Wild suitable for? The game is a monster that you first need to conquer. Bring plenty of time, as you will need it. But it’s worth it. If you like RPGs, you should play this game. The combat system is solid, the story is gripping, and the sheer variety of things you can do is overwhelming. If you don’t know Zelda, this is the ideal entry point because even without prior knowledge, you will immediately fall under the spell of Hyrule.

Pokémon: Let’s Go Evoli and Pikachu – Place 8

Pokémon Let's Go - Evoli
On MeinMMO.de, Evoli is more popular than Pikachu.

What type of game is Pokémon: Let’s Go? The game brings the classic Pokémon RPGs to the Nintendo Switch. You journey as a Pokémon trainer through the Kanto region, catch Pokémon, and battle your way to the top. Along the way, you will meet many familiar faces like Professor Oak, Brock, Misty, and Team Rocket.

Oops, unfortunately this affiliate widget is no longer available.

Who enjoys Pokémon Let’s Go? All big and small Pokémon trainers. Did you play Pokémon Yellow or Red? Then you will love Let’s Go! The game focuses on many of the old Pokémon from the first editions, with the difference that Evoli or Pikachu constantly accompany you. Fun fact: The MeinMMO community has frequently purchased both editions, but Evoli was more popular.

On the second page, there is a well-known plumber, the apocalyptic time, and true art.
