Warframe is known for incorporating absurd and disturbing twists into its story. But with this revelation at the end of the Solaris story, no one saw it coming!
Warning, spoilers! The following paragraphs reveal a bit about the Solaris, but a major spoiler starts after the second heading.
Who are the Solaris? If you first land in the Fortuna colony on Venus, the bizarre Solaris people stand out immediately. They are workers who must labor for the greedy Corpus corporation. Each Solaris has been in debt to the corporation for generations, as unpaid debts are passed down to the descendants.
Venus landscape
A vicious cycle of debt: The poor souls are trapped in a vicious cycle of liabilities forever and must repay them through hard work. However, this never happens, as the corporation ensures that one never earns enough to become debt-free. Workers on Fortuna can only dream of a healthy “work-life balance.”
The strangest cyborgs ever
But it gets worse, as the relentless and hard work in the terraforming factories on Venus requires the Solaris to replace large parts of their bodies with mechanical prosthetics. The end result is an almost complete cyber body called the “Rig.”
The most extreme feature of this “upgrade” is that the Solaris even have mechanical robot heads, while some limbs still seem to be human.

A bizarre and disturbing sight – especially when the Solaris still seem to have many typically human traits. They scratch itchy spots, wearily trudge to their workplace, and hum catchy work songs during their toil.
Body on installments: Every Solaris is thus transformed into a disturbing cyborg upon entering the workforce. However, such a mechanical body also costs money and is provided by the corporation. If one fails to meet their quota, the Corpus takes the “Rig” away again.
The unfortunate workers then become nothing more than a brain in a jar after such a “forced expropriation,” vegetating in some warehouses in darkness and isolation until hopefully someone pays off the debts.
Not much is left of the Solaris people.
The life of a Solaris worker is thus a complete misery of slavery and total oppression under a completely amoral capital and industrial complex, in which the poor souls do not even own their own bodies.
But there’s an even more disturbing secret, which one learns only much later.
WARNING: A massive spoiler begins here!
The bizarre secret of the Solaris
In the course of the story in the new Fortuna update of Warframe, you help the poor Solaris and fight against the Corpus corporation. This way, you gain more and more respect from the Solaris workforce until they eventually trust you enough to reveal their last secret.
Once you reach the last level of reputation, during a conversation with the revolution leader Vox Solaris, this happens:

What the hell did you just see? As seen in the video, the Solaris carry their most valuable possession close to their hearts: their heads! The unusually bulky torsos of the Solaris rigs securely house the head and face of the workers, their only and thus most valuable possession.
Once you have gained the ultimate trust of the enslaved, the Solaris will always greet you “face to face” and you will encounter rows of disturbing images of living and speaking heads sitting in the chests of their bearers!
The true meaning of the Solaris song: The catchy theme song of the workers also takes on a new light, as the line “Hide the Heart of what we are” now takes on a whole new meaning. The Solaris carry their selves close to their hearts. The head and heart are essentially one and are hidden away.
This makes the notion of “forced expropriation” even more gruesome. Just imagine massive storage shelves full of disembodied heads and faces that must endure for eternity in darkness (also a line from the song). Like an extremely dark version of the heads in jars from Futurama.
Warframe becomes even weirder: Digital Extremes has once again managed to achieve it: The story of the Solaris has added another level to the general “weirdness” of the setting. An accomplishment that many players, after the more extreme revelations from past story updates like Sacrifice or The War Within, thought was hardly possible.
It remains exciting to see how the tragic and disturbing story of the Solaris continues and whether in the game their cruel fate can eventually be changed in later updates.
If this revelation is too extreme, you can calm down with the following activity:
In Fallout 76 you can level up your character and gain more skill points and perks. We summarize some tips and tricks to help you progress faster.
By leveling up in Fallout 76, you can increase your special attributes and unlock new perks. There are several tips you can follow to level up as quickly and effectively as possible.
How can you speed up leveling? There are some basic tools to earn more experience points:
Always be well-rested. Sleep whenever possible, as this bonus grants you a temporary 5% more XP.
Play in a group. The perk card “Inspirational” grants you up to 15% bonus XP when you are in a team.
Food items like Canned Meat Stew, Cranberry Cobbler, or Cranberry Juice also give you a temporary XP boost.
With the Leader Bobblehead, you can also get 5% bonus XP for an hour; the perk “Curator” extends the duration to 2 hours.
Build and dismantle items in your camp. This may not yield a lot, but at least it quickly gives you some bonus XP.
Complete events; a successful completion provides a good amount of XP.
Quests also grant you XP but are not as effective as events or defeating strong enemies.
Generally, you should focus on defeating stronger monsters, as they provide more XP per kill.
Streamer and YouTuber FrenchTomahawk already reached level 65 during the beta and detonated an atomic bomb with his colleagues. In his video, he explains how he leveled up so fast and describes a route he takes to level up.

Workshops are also a helpful aid in gathering XP. You can find them all around the world of Fallout 76.
These are the benefits of workshops: First, by capturing one, you gain an additional, free fast travel point. In addition, you will be rewarded with free resources.
Workshops must also be defended. When a quest starts, they will be attacked by multiple waves of enemies. Many enemies mean many experience points for you and thus a faster level up.
It’s best to take over a workshop located in an area with higher-level monsters. On average, there should be a 10-level difference between you and the mutants.
Which workshop is good for this? The munitions factory is located in the western part of West Virginia. In addition to the extra resources, you will also find a workbench for crafting ammunition here.
While every raid is different, there are always situations that every raid encounters throughout its career. We present to you 10 of these archetypical moments.
Raids are exciting and are a regular occurrence in most MMOs. At least for those who want to participate in endgame content, raids are unavoidable. This inevitably means contact with other players and therefore recurring clichés. We have identified ten of these “typical incidents” for you.
1. The guy with the wireless headset
Where coordination and teamwork are particularly important, communication via voice chat is usually necessary. Thanks to the wide selection, there are many headsets in use. And every major raid has that one guy who has practically become one with his headset and never takes it off.
Usually, one only realizes this in the raid when suddenly strange noises are heard. This leads to some uncomfortable moments when one suddenly hears water flowing, followed closely by the toilet flushing. That usually results in images in the head that one cannot easily forget.
2. The one who doesn’t know the strategy
Anyone joining an existing raid group or wanting to participate in a raid at a higher difficulty level must fulfill certain requirements. One of these is usually that one has a basic plan for the boss fight.
What abilities does the boss use?
Which moments are particularly critical?
What is the special task of my class?
However, every now and then someone fails at this and needs a detailed briefing from the raid leader. It is often forgotten that one generally does not want to take people without guide knowledge.
And at least: The three others who also have no idea about the fight but are too scared to speak up become wiser after the boss explanation.
3. The couple in the raid
Especially in guilds and in games with larger raid groups, it happens again and again that a couple plays together. But just because the two have found a common hobby in cloud nine, their gaming performance does not always match what is required by the current content.
Most of the time, one of the dream duo is so far below the average performance of the other players that their participation in the raid cannot be justified. This leads to many failed attempts until one player finally loses patience and openly addresses the problem. At this point, the raid is over for the day and a long, very unpleasant discussion follows.
These moments are particularly critical when one of the two lovebirds is represented in the guild or raid leadership. More than one group has broken apart over this … .
4. The one who is “2 minutes afk”
The raid is ready, the boss in pull range and everyone is just waiting for the command from the leader to get started. Then a “2 minutes afk” booms through the voice chat and the waiting begins.
Since “2 minutes” apparently varies greatly from district to district, the person in question naturally returns only after 10, 15, or 20 minutes and has an adventurous story ready about why they got distracted. After all, everyone has understanding for dear real life, right?
5. The guy who orders a pizza right before the raid starts
Sure, raiding is a time-consuming affair. But to allow 5, 10, 20, or even 40 players to spend time together, one must rearrange their schedule a bit. In almost every raid group, there is that one expert who cannot plan his evening properly and disregards consideration for others. This student (it’s always a male student – prove me wrong) orders a pizza ten minutes before the raid begins.
This usually leads to him having to get up during the first boss fight to open the door for the pizza delivery person, causing him to miss part of the boss fight or die in the fire.
6. The two damage enthusiasts
Anyone who wants to successfully overcome a raid must also deliver corresponding performance. However, in every group, there are two colleagues who take their job not just a little too seriously and also have to brag about their damage numbers the whole time. After every single group of trash mobs, a damage meter is posted – in the raid chat, so that everyone can see it and normal communication becomes impossible.
Even during the boss fight, the two engage in a “heated race” that must naturally be commented on in voice chat while the rest of the players tries to avoid making mistakes and concentrate.
This competition often comes at the expense of the healers. Because if you stay in the fire, you take damage but can still deal damage and execute your rotation.
7. The guy with the crackling headset
Who doesn’t know it: 20 people are sitting in Discord, TeamSpeak, or some other voice software, and in the middle of a challenging boss fight, a microphone starts crackling and distorting.
Half of the voice chat “flips out” and directly scolds the culprit. Of course, he is completely unaware of his guilt and insists for a few seconds that the problem is not with him, but with everyone else. Because that’s how technology works.
8. Cola kisses keyboard
The atmosphere is tense, the last moments of the boss explanation are running, when suddenly an “Oh, crap!” booms through the voice chat, followed by seconds of silence. The raid debates why the usually so calm Dieter suddenly loses his composure.
After a few minutes, the answer comes: Cola has been spilled over the keyboard and thus Dieter’s raid is unfortunately ended early – because he of course does not have a spare keyboard.
Will there ever be a generation of gamers who drink from bottles and simply close them again?
9. The “accidental” disconnect
Even in the most familiar raid groups, there are always evenings when the mood turns sour. Perhaps one repeatedly fails against a boss that has actually been defeated multiple times. Or another topic, such as the “performance of the raid in general” brings down the mood.
As frustration slowly rises, it eventually reaches a breaking point. Suddenly, one of the players disappears and is offline. PC crashed? RL emergency?
No, the next day it is said that “unfortunately the router malfunctioned” and that they couldn’t get back online all evening.
It’s just annoying when you have these people on your Steam friend list and they are still online there and even started another game … .
10. Mr. Face Aggro
Before the final boss fight, there is often a little break. While most players refill their drinks, use the restroom, or smoke a cigarette, a few players naturally stay at the PC and fool around a bit. Various toys are used, a few dances are performed, or they just jump around wildly.
During this, the inevitable happens: the boss gets pulled. Since a large part of the players is not present, he naturally wipes the whole raid group. They are disappointed upon returning from their afk break when they find their corpse on the ground. The guilty party then has to listen to “Who did that?” twenty times and is repeatedly humiliated (and deservedly so).
He will never learn.

In a short video, the new roller beetle races for Guild Wars 2 were introduced. These will take place on the old maps of the base game. They are set to be brought into the game on November 27.
What are roller beetle races? Since the release of the roller beetle, players have wished for races to compete against each other. In the video from ArenaNet, it is evident that the races will take place in a mass start. All players will roll off simultaneously to ride on a course and try to reach the finish line first.
The roller beetle relies on high speed, good control, and a drift mechanic. To recharge its endurance and thus super speed, you also need to perform tricks in the air at the right moment.
Also crucial for good races is the momentum that players must master. For example, if you roll uphill, the mount loses speed. Going downhill, however, the beetle picks up speed again.
Image from the teaser for the roller beetle races
Where will the roller beetle races take place? From the short teaser, it can be deduced that the new races will occur on the old maps. The maps Diessa Plateau, Maelstrom Summit, and Snow Capped Heights are recognizable.
At this time, we do not know how many races there will be exactly and whether other maps will also be included.
Criticism of the roller beetle races: ArenaNet already tried to introduce a first roller beetle race during Halloween. This went wrong because the area for the races was completely unsuitable.
Now players hope that the new races will be more spacious and equipped with fewer frustrating obstacles.
How do I get the roller beetle? The roller beetle is a mount that you can earn since the fourth episode of the Living World in June this year. You need the Path of Fire expansion and the episode “Long Live the Lich” to unlock it.
If you meet the requirements, you now need to play the first story part of the episode. Afterwards, you can talk to Gorrik on the new map. He will gradually unlock collections for you, through which you can get the beetle.
In the roller beetle guide on Guildnews, you will find all further explanations regarding the tasks and collections related to the roller beetle. It takes about two hours with the episode and collections to obtain the mount.
The legendary pulse rifle Redrix Claymore is hidden behind one of the longest quest lines that Destiny 2 has to offer. Our author Robert has taken on the challenge and wants to encourage all Guardians to do the same!
Redrix Claymore is finally mine: Just this past weekend, as an evening Guardian, I managed to complete the quest for the Redrix Claymore. Weeks of grinding, tears, and sweat in the face of my enemies in the Crucible are behind me. But in the end, the effort is worth it. Because now I hold one of the best legendary Destiny weapons in my hands.
If you, like me, have long been reluctant to even enter the Crucible, I have news: If I can do it, you can too! But let’s take it step by step.
What is the Redrix Claymore? The Redrix Claymore, the successor to the Redrix Claymore, is a legendary weapon from the category of slow-firing pulse rifles. While this weapon class struggles in the Crucible, the Claymore shines with its special perk.
Because the ability “Desperado” allows you to significantly increase your rate of fire under the influence of Outlaw after reloading. This transforms the weapon from the slowest firing category into the fastest.
The catch: the damage output remains the same. This means that thanks to the faster rate of fire, you can deal a lot of damage in a short time.
Before you can call this fantastic weapon your own, you must master a long quest line with various tasks that are time-consuming and require a lot of effort.
What you need to do for the Redrix Claymore: To successfully complete the quest, you primarily need strong nerves and immense stamina. At least you don’t have to meet point requirements like with Luna’s Howl, which means that any player can attain the weapon as long as they are willing to invest enough time and stay committed to the quest.
The “Other” Top Weapon: Luna’s Howl
After you accept the quest from Lord Shaxx in the Tower, you must complete the following tasks:
1. Defeat 200 Guardians with a pulse rifle – Grab a good pulse rifle and dive into the Crucible’s quickplay playlist
2. Reach Valor Rank Heroic – This is merely a matter of time, as you still earn 10 points for a loss
3. Earn 75 Double Kill medals – Opt for weapons that can hit more than one enemy directly. You don’t have to eliminate two enemies at once, just hit them. The final blow can also be delivered by a teammate. Weapons suitable for this include the exotic fusion rifle Telesto and the exotic pulse rifle Graviton Lance
4. Defeat 150 Guardians with critical hits from a pulse rifle – Proceed similarly to step 1. Just ensure that you eliminate the opponent with a critical hit.
5. Defeat 50 enemies each with Arc, Solar, and Void abilities – Since you lose progress after a death, you should tackle one element at a time. Align your class and weapons to each specific element.
6. Play 25 rounds each in Quickplay, Rumble, and Competitive modes – Simply play rounds until the quest steps are completed. You do not need to win to make progress.
7. Complete 20 Crucible bounties – As you approach the end of the quest, simply collect completed bounties without redeeming them.
If these quest steps are relatively easy to complete with the required time, for the final quest step you’ll need to really put in all the motivation you can muster. Because now you need to reset your Valor rank five times.
What does that mean concretely? To reset your Valor Rank, you must reach 2,000 points in the Quickplay playlist. Therefore, for five resets, you must collect 10,000 points in total. While it seems unlikely: If you never win a Crucible match, you’re faced with the hurdle of 1,000 matches, as you only earn 10 points for a loss.
Those who achieve a win rate of 50% still need an average of 750 games. However, you also receive streak bonuses when you win multiple games in a row, allowing you to earn more points.
But let’s be honest: If you can only play Destiny 2 two or three times a week for two hours in the evening, you’re faced with a big problem. Because you need to complete the five rank resets within a season, so you only have about three months time.
What to do? With the following tips, you can accomplish this mammoth task much faster:
Play Rumble! Even third place still counts as a victory regarding your Valor gains and streak bonuses.
Play competitively! The big advantage of the competitive playlist is that you earn not only Glory points but also Valor points. Additionally, a loss in competitive mode has no impact on your win streak in Quickplay.
Play while Valor bonuses are active! If there’s an Iron Banner event, Bungie often grants bonuses on earned Valor. In the last four days of an Iron Banner rotation, you can thus rake in triple the amount of Valor.
Specifically, the last point provides a fantastic boost. If you take a day off during a triple Valor boost, you can easily earn a complete reset.
What should you expect during the grind? Even though I consider the current Crucible to be one of the best Bungie has ever put together, you should also be prepared to be frustrated. You will frequently feel the urge to introduce your controller to the television.
You will curse opposing Warlocks who wipe out entire teams with Nova Warp. You will despair because the enemy has once again snagged the heavy ammunition. Additionally, you will spend a lot of time in the Crucible. Prepare yourself for about 80-100 hours.
But you also gain something from it. Your handling of pulse rifles will improve, and you will generally become stronger in the Crucible. Furthermore, you will develop an understanding of the maps and which weapons can counter a specific playstyle.
Those who undertake all this effort will often ask themselves: “Why am I doing this?” Let’s take a closer look at the performance of the Claymore!
That’s why grinding for the Redrix Claymore is worth it: If you use the Claymore in the Crucible, you hold one of the best weapons for the competitive multiplayer mode in your hands on paper. The optimal TTK is stated to be 0.67 seconds, which is the best value that a pulse rifle can achieve.
However, all six shots from two bursts must critically hit, which doesn’t always work in practice. The true strength of the Claymore is unleashed once the Desperado perk activates. Then you can knock out opposing Guardians in 0.47 seconds – a fantastic value.
The performance of the weapon in the Crucible is passionately debated. Outstanding pulse rifles like Outlast and Crown’s Speech work exceptionally well under all circumstances, according to the Claymore critics. But for Redrix Claymore to really function well, you need to activate the Desperado perk.
How does the Claymore perform in PvE? Whether you want to use the weapon in the Crucible or not – it plays out really brutally in the fight against alien creeps! As slow-firing pulse rifles deal massive damage, with the Desperado perk, you achieve a damage output that is among the best that a kinetic weapon can currently deliver.
Since you are usually surrounded by many enemies, you can maintain the perks Outlaw and Desperado indefinitely, allowing you to quickly decimate even large groups. Due to the high damage output, you can eliminate even tougher enemies with orange and yellow bars without wasting your special ammo.

Is there a God Roll for the Claymore? Indeed! Once you have successfully completed the quest, you can get additional versions of the weapon from reward packages from Lord Shaxx. While the perks Outlaw and Desperado always stay fixed on the weapon, you can receive different barrels, magazines, and masterwork variants.
This is the best Redrix Claymore for the Crucible:
Barrel – Arrowhead Brake
Magazine – Ricochet Rounds / High-Caliber Rounds
Masterwork – Range / Stability
Mod – Targeting Adjuster
With this perk combination, the Claymore becomes a laser weapon, allowing you to hit exactly where you aimed. Thanks to the Arrowhead Brake, you don’t need a balance compensator mod anymore, as it increases the recoil stat to 100. The weapon shoots vertically upwards without any sideways deviation.
This is the best Redrix Claymore for PvE content:
Barrel – Arrowhead Brake
Magazine – Extended Mag
Masterwork – Range / Stability
Mod – Magazine Mod
When fighting against computer-controlled enemies, you should focus on magazine size. The longer you can keep the Desperado perk active, the more damage you deal.
Get the Redrix Claymore: Have you already earned the weapon? Congratulations! To everyone else, I want to encourage: Give it a try! You can start directly in Season 5, which begins on November 27. And who knows, maybe one of you will discover your previously hidden passion for the Crucible.
You can already start the quest steps now, as they will carry over to the next season. You only need to start your progress for the rank resets anew each season.
Do you already have the Claymore? What are your experiences with it? Do you have any further tips?
Since you are usually surrounded by many enemies, you can maintain the perks Outlaw and Desperado indefinitely, allowing you to quickly decimate even large groups. Due to the high damage output, you can eliminate even tougher enemies with orange and yellow bars without wasting your special ammo.

Many gamers have had a negative attitude towards the new multiplayer Fallout since the announcement of Fallout 76. However, there are players who enjoy Fallout 76. Even some critics have changed their minds.
Criticism and praise for Fallout 76: Hardly any other AAA game has polarized as much in 2018 as Fallout 76. The consensus on the internet seemed to be for a long time: Either you are completely against the game or you love it.
Especially critical voices became quite loud. But there are also positive counter-voices. Especially on reddit, there are often posts praising the game. Among them are also some former critics who have given the game a chance.
The positive impressions on reddit of Fallout 76
A “hater” loves Fallout 76 now: In a short reddit post, the user unpluggedoasis writes about his experiences with Fallout 76. The thread now has over 1,600 upvotes and is among the most popular in the Fallout 76 reddit.
The title reads: “I hated the game. Decided to give it a chance and have now played 15 hours in 2 days. I’m really enjoying it.” He explains his original disdain by stating that Fallout 4 never appealed to him.
I’m starting to believe that FO76 is the Bethesda game for me. HUGE map to explore, tons of interesting places, no pressure to complete quests (there’s a really great story for those who want to listen) […] I’m even having fun building! Holy shit, I thought that day would never come.
“I’m going to say it: I was wrong.” Other users also agree in further posts with this impression. The user talidrow starts his thread with the title: “I’m going to say it: I was wrong.” He (or she) also had initial concerns.
I had my doubts about the game. Many. I was really concerned about griefers and whether there would even be a story without NPCs. Now I’m level 14 and having the best time with my husband.
A somewhat more detailed overview is given by user UMCorian. He was also initially skeptical, when Fallout 76 was announced. After 20 levels, he created a post describing what has made him like Fallout 76.
However, UMCorian also points out issues that Bethesda could improve in the game. Despite some shortcomings, such posts have positive effects on the community. A response from another user on his thread is that the criticism helped in deciding to buy Fallout 76 for Christmas.
What fascinates people? Players like Fallout 76 for various reasons. However, the most common reason mentioned is that the community is very pleasant. Players interact harmoniously with each other. The fear of griefers in Fallout 76 is completely unfounded.
To enjoy the game, he doesn’t have to rush to the endgame to, for example, summon world bosses with nuclear bombs. He can just take his time and explore the world – at his own pace.
There is also criticism: The positive voices are just a snippet from the community. While the tone on reddit is largely positive, criticism of the game can also be found there. Posts suggesting improvements appear more frequently, such as
Changes to PvP
Improvement of the interface
“Quality of life” changes to recipes and building plans

Fortnite: Battle Royale is bringing another big update with all sorts of new features to the servers. A new dynamite item is coming, and the already leaked Wild West mode should also go online today.
The next big things in Fortnite: Last Update 6.30 last week brought a huge wave of new features, including the Food Fight mode. But Epic is not resting and will probably roll out the next mode this week.
Therefore, with today’s update, there will be the new item dynamite and also the already leaked Western mode right afterward.
Update is here: Meanwhile, the new update to version 6.30 has been released. Here you can find the patch notes in German.
More info on update 6.30
When is the update coming? The new update for Fortnite will be played to the servers today, on November 20, 2018, at 2:00 PM our time.
What’s the deal with the Wild West mode? According to the already known leaks about the new mode, the Wild West mode will focus on simple weapons and items. This means in plain terms:
No automatic weapons, instead revolvers, shotguns, and hunting rifles
No explosive weapons, except for dynamite
No traps
No shields, but more slurp juices
Why should you play the Wild West mode? The new mode is specifically designed for players who find the current meta in Fortnite too hectic and stressful.
In the Wild West mode, things are more relaxed, and you probably need more skill to get kills with shotgun, revolver, or hunting rifle. And the annoying turrets are also not there.
Is Deadfire coming back? You might also get the cool Cowboy Skin Deadfire again as an offer in the shop. Otherwise, Wild West fans still have the season 6 super skin Calamity for battle pass owners.
More details on the new Fortnite update will be available later on MeinMMO when the patch notes are released.
The Western theme fits Fortnite, as Epic’s battle royale game snatched the coveted award from the Western epic Red Dead Redemption 2 at an award ceremony:
As you embark on your adventures, the world of Red Dead Redemption 2 changes. Houses are built, forests are cleared, and new trees are planted. A video captures how the landscape transforms.
In fast motion, you can watch as houses are built or train tracks are expanded. Players celebrate the amount of detail that Rockstar Games shows even in the environment.
As you progress further in the story, new houses are built in some towns. You can even watch the NPCs perform the construction.
Spoiler alert: In this article, we discuss the environmental and city changes that might occur due to story events.
Forests, houses, and beards change in RDR 2
You may have noticed when you rode through Valentine that there are new houses. As the video by DefendTheHouse shows, two new huts are being constructed there.
One is being built to the left of the General Store and is intended to be the “Valentine Restaurant.” The second building is being constructed between the saloon and the doctor’s hut. This will likely be an accommodation, based on the name “Keane’s Room for Rents” on the sign.

The player does not have to do anything for the changes: The world changes automatically without your intervention. You will encounter buildings that are still under construction. When you come back later, the houses will be finished and people will be living in them. The NPCs in RDR 2 lead their own lives, even when you are not watching.
Similarly, the completion of train tracks is part of the video shown above.
Forests are created and cut down: To make room for train tracks, some trees have to be cut down. They do not simply disappear by magic, but are actually felled. You can see this by the tree stumps that stand where forests once were. However, new trees are also planted.
The beard also changes: At the end of the video, there is a bonus. It shows how Arthur’s beard grows over time if you don’t shave it. Fans refer to this time-lapse and compare it to how they are waiting for the PC version of Red Dead Redemption 2.

You can imagine the post to be somewhat like this, just a bit more extensive and visually enhanced with a custom rating box: Red Dead Redemption 2 Test – How you rated it. We were surprised by the strong responses in the user test for RDR 2 and want to expand this concept to Fallout 76.
We will again mention individual users in the post and form the core elements from the comments. In the sections most important to you, authors from Mein-MMO.de will also participate.
Review in Progress: We will launch another call in a few weeks to update the test, as more will be known about the long-term motivation by then. This is initially a test of the impressions from the first week.
For some of you, this is the first Fallout title, while others are already die-hard fans of the franchise. Since Fallout 76 allows you many different play styles, we are eager to learn how you approach the online survival RPG.
Here’s how you can participate: Write us your conclusion – feel free to elaborate! And ideally explain to us in pro and con format in the comments what you like about Fallout 76 and what you don’t like so much. Is your judgment as harsh as some users who bombed Fallout 76 with negative reviews on Metacritic or do you belong to those who would have expected just such a game and therefore love it?
In Destiny 2, Titans and Warlocks can currently form a deadly combo. The YouTuber and outstanding player Gladd showcased how powerful this duo can be in an impressive video.
Gladd and his buddy Phammy ventured into the Forsaken Raid Last Wish, where they aimed to challenge the final boss Riven as a duo. Gladd played as a Warlock, while his teammate was a Titan.
What does the video show? In the video, the enormous raid boss Riven is completely obliterated by the two-man team. What some currently struggle to achieve even with six players, Gladd and Phammy managed easily as a duo – and they did it right at the beginning of the encounter, on the first floor. A remarkable accomplishment.
How was this possible? The two achieved this thanks to a specific combination of Guardian classes and Exotics. Gladd played as a Warlock with Dawnblade focus and Alignment of Grace. Phammy played a Sunbreaker Titan with Code of the Firebrand.
Crucial to their success was, alongside 2 rocket launchers with cluster bombs, the combination of the Warlock super Well of Radiance and the exotic Titan Gauntlets Synthoceps. The Well strengthens and heals allies within a certain radius. The gauntlet actually increases super and melee damage when the wearer is surrounded.
However, when a Titan with the Synthoceps is inside the Warlock’s Well, their entire damage output is increased by approximately 50 percent – not just the damage from the super and melee attacks.
This makes the Titan an absolute DPS monster. Against Riven, Phammy alone dealt more than 9 million damage in a single phase. It is important that enemies are nearby for the gauntlet effect to be activated.
This combo is not only possible against Riven but can be used in any fight. Gladd summarizes it well: “If you are a Titan and playing with a Well Warlock, equip the Synthoceps. Period.”
If Blizzard doesn’t deliver a hit soon, it will be completely swallowed by Activision. At least that’s what some insiders claim.
In recent days, there has been a lot of speculation about Blizzard that resembles an “end of the world” scenario. While many rumors have come together and were quickly debunked, insiders have confirmed others. At the core are the following statements and accusations against Blizzard:
Blizzard pays its employees little, and recently even less.
Blizzard is gradually being taken over by Activision and is exchanging personnel.
Where do the statements come from? Jeremy from the YouTube channel “The Quartering” refers to messages he allegedly received from Blizzard employees after a previous video. He does not show the exact emails to protect his sources and not to betray the Blizzard employees. However, he does quote from these emails.
Are the statements trustworthy? Basically yes. Jeremy from TheQuartering has proven time and again in the past that he has good contact with insiders from various companies. Therefore, it seems very likely that he was contacted by Blizzard employees. Nonetheless, such unconfirmed statements should of course be taken with caution.

Employees pay for their passion: The pay at Blizzard among the “normal” employees is extremely low. Some developers even have to form small communities to afford rent and make a living at all. The compensation for the poor pay is the fact that you have a dream job and are working on some of the greatest games. Additionally, having “worked at Blizzard” looks great on a resume when applying to other companies later.
Those who complain are dismissed, and it is constantly implied that there are many other candidates for the same position who are eager to grab such a dream job. One is easily replaceable.
Blizzard lures with bonuses: The low income is sweetened by Blizzard with the promise of two bonus payments per year. One of them would be “performance-based”, the other would be related to the profit that Blizzard would have made this year.
For employees at the “lower levels”, this bonus might not exceed 10% of their income, resulting in still being paid less at the end of the year than at other gaming companies.
Parts of these bonus payments are said to have been abolished immediately after the CEO of Blizzard changed, and instead “partly integrated directly into wages”.
Mike Morhaime “was let go”: Mike Morhaime (former CEO of Blizzard) was always on the side of the employees and colleagues, even though he did not improve employee pay. He opposed the plans to abolish the annual bonus payment for employees. Shortly after he left Blizzard, this was enforced, allegedly under pressure from Activision.
Blizzard needs a hit: Blizzard was able to maintain its autonomy mainly because they had hit after hit, and thus received more or less “free rein” from Activision. However, this has changed in recent years. Because “Heroes of the Storm has failed, Overwatch is not a market leader, and World of Warcraft is not growing”.
If Blizzard does not deliver a hit with its next title, the integration into Activision will advance even further.
Positive aspects at Blizzard: However, not everything is bad at Blizzard. A job at Blizzard is considered “fairly secure”, as people are rarely laid off. Furthermore, there is the aforementioned improvement of one’s resume and the “boost to one’s ego” – who wouldn’t like to say they contributed to a Blizzard game played by millions?
Ultimately, the full truth of the statements cannot, of course, be verified. However, the statements paint a bleak picture of Blizzard, its future, and the future of the employees.
What do you think about these statements? Do you believe that everything corresponds to the truth? Or are some just riding the “hate wave” that started with Diablo: Immortal?

In Pokémon GO, trainers now have their last chance at Giratina. On November 20, the legendary raid boss will be leaving.
Anyone who hasn’t caught the legendary raid boss Giratina should hurry. Because soon this Ghost and Dragon-type Pokémon will disappear from the scene. When it will return to raids is not known.
Giratina will disappear tomorrow evening
Together with the Halloween event, Niantic released the legendary Pokémon. After three weeks, it will be over for Giratina.
Until when is the raid boss catchable? On the evening of November 20 at 10 PM, Giratina will disappear from raids. Until then, you can challenge it in a Level 5 raid.
What is effective against Giratina? Giratina is weak against Dragon, Fairy, Ice, Ghost, and Dark-type Pokémon. The best counters to Giratina are listed here for you.
Who will replace Giratina? So far, it is not known who will be Giratina’s successor. Dialga and Palkia, which are part of the dimensional trio with Giratina, could be the new legendary bosses.
The return of Rayquaza or Groudon is also possible. Unlike Kyogre, they have not returned yet. This would be worthwhile for trainers, as they are among the best attackers in Pokémon GO.
Completing Meltan quests through raids: It is a good time to participate in raids right now. In the Meltan quests, two tasks revolve around participating in raids. There is no better time to challenge Giratina in raids.
Current events: Besides Giratina, there are also new raid bosses from levels 1 to 4 found in raids. Additionally, the Let’s GO event is currently running, providing particularly many Kanto Pokémon. It’s worth going outside, even as it gets colder.
Have you caught a Giratina yet? What’s your best one?
The warfront in World of Warcraft is once again available for the Horde. The Horde can start and grab some serious loot.
Farming the resources has paid off, the attack can finally begin. On the European servers of World of Warcraft, the warfront from Arathi Highlands is accessible from today (November 19, 2018). Horde players can sign up and casually grab rewards with item level 370.
Who can participate? Currently, only Horde players who have reached level 120, completed the introductory quest chain, and have achieved a minimum item level of 320 can participate. Registration is possible at the mission table at the harbor of Dazar’alor.
What rewards are available? The first successful completion of a warfront is sweetened by a quest reward. A reward box awaits that drops a random equipment item with item level 370+. This should still be a clear upgrade for most players!
In addition, there is a possibility to also receive items with item level 340+ at the end of a battleground.
How does the warfront proceed?We have explained this in a detailed guide. You must capture several control points, collect resources (wood and iron), and gradually take the Arathi Highlands. In the end, there awaits a boss fight that will determine the victory.
When does the Alliance get its turn? According to the display, the Horde has exactly one week to participate in the warfront (until Sunday, November 25, 2018). After that, the Alliance loses control over Arathi and begins to gather resources through daily quests. This process last time took about four to five days. After that, the Alliance can start the attack and the Horde must defeat rare enemies in the Arathi Highlands in the meantime.
Are you still playing the warfront in the repeated round? Or have you already lost interest?
The new champion in League of Legends (LoL) is Neeko. She can take on the forms of other champions and deceive her opponents. The trailer shows Neeko in action.
A new heroine is on the way for the MOBA League of Legends. First introduced with a teaser, the trailer for Neeko is now available.
What does the trailer show? The community speculated based on the 15-second teaser that the new champion can take on the form of other champions. The new trailer confirms this. The video shows the advantages of Neeko, the curious chameleon.
Throughout the video, you can see how Neeko can take on the form of other champions like Ezreal or Hecarim.
Does Neeko also take on abilities? It seems that Neeko can only visually adapt to other champions. This likely includes the appearance of automatic attacks.
What do the fans say? On Reddit, the reactions are widely divided.
One user writes: Oh no, she is really cute!
Others are happy that Riot makes her look more like a “monster” than a woman
Furthermore, it is said: She talks like Gnar, looks like Zoe, moves like Nidalee, has a really cool theme, has a LeBlanc clone, and I swear, she will be permabanned in the release week.
Who is Neeko? On Neeko’s lore page, RiotGames confirms that Neeko belongs to the Vastaya tribe. This tribe includes champions like Rengar and Wukong, who mix human and animal traits. She is a magician and is introduced as follows in the lore text.
Neeko comes from a long-forgotten tribe of the Vastaya and can dive into large groups by adopting the appearance of others. She can even partially absorb their emotional state to quickly distinguish friend from foe. No one can ever be sure where – or who – Neeko might be, but those who wish to harm her will soon see her true face and feel the full power of the original spirit magic being hurled at them.
What abilities does Neeko possess? The video clearly shows that Neeko can take on the form of other champions. It seems that this only works with allied champions from whom she can copy appearance. Additionally, she can fire projectiles that presumably hold enemies if they hit.
The exact abilities will soon be presented by the developers at RiotGames.
Fallout 76 evokes extreme emotions among many fans on both sides, joy and sorrow. A particularly frustrated gamer has now vented his anger at a GameStop.
Nerd Rage at GameStop: In the state of North Carolina, a customer was apparently upset about GameStop’s return policy. The player wanted to return Fallout 76, but the manager denied the request.
In response, the outraged gamer completely wrecked the store. He knocked over shelves, threw items off the counter, and stomped on the games scattered on the floor. The complete video of the outburst is available on Facebook.
Is Fallout 76 the Reason for the Outburst?
Fallout Polarizes: Since the announcement of Fallout 76, the game has mostly experienced either extreme hate or extreme hype. There has been hardly any gray area between the two extremes for a long time.
The player from North Carolina likely tried that as well. However, at GameStop, this was apparently not possible for corporate policy reasons, which likely led to the outburst.
Even though the video itself does not mention that it is about Fallout 76, there are reports that the game’s return was the trigger. The author mentions Fallout 76 as the reason in the description, and in a follow-up video showing the destruction, it says: “It seems someone really disliked Fallout 76.”

Gamers Laugh at the Vandal: Although Bethesda faces a lot of criticism, even when servers fail for technical reasons, the reaction to this outburst is largely directed against the vandal.
The video was also shared on reddit and fans discussed it. Most admired the remarkable calmness of the seller, but the troublemaker also got a lot of flak:
“That’s the kind of person I imagine publishes the 0/10 ratings on Metacritic.”
“What a child.”
“It’s kind of ridiculous to freak out over $60.”

In Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, a family had more fun playing than the law allows. The loud voice of the mother triggered a large police response.
What happened? Last week, a dramatic emergency call came into the police in Volusia County, Florida. Neighbors were worried about the life of their neighbors because screams and words indicating a violent act could be heard from their house. Among other things, it was reported that the following could be heard:
“No, please don’t kill me! Please let me get up!” Additionally, a man was reportedly heard complaining loudly, “Why did you take my gun?”
Police arrive and find a happy gamer family
The police took the emergency call very seriously and dispatched six patrol cars to the given address. The McKee family lived there. The officers approached the house with guns drawn, anticipating a potential mass shooting or hostage situation.
All just a false alarm: Instead, a cheerful woman named Jamie McKee opened the door in the presence of her lively family and wanted to know what was going on. Fortunately, the situation was quickly clarified, as seen in the video embedded below:

There was no argument, no domestic violence, and certainly no hostage situation. Rather, Jamie McKee had spent the whole evening playing the multiplayer part of Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 with her husband and daughter.
The window was open, and Jamie, as she laughingly admitted, has a very loud voice. Therefore, this likely led to the misunderstanding.
The gamer family wants to play with the window closed in the future: The McKees expressed understanding and praised the officers for their prompt action. They do not know who called the police but apologize to their neighbors for any inconvenience caused.
In the future, they want to pay more attention to the volume and keep the window closed while gaming.
The situation with the McKees ended well. However, swatting, or deliberately calling the police to troll gamers, is a real problem:
In this guide, we explain how to earn the title Riven’s Bane in Destiny 2. But beware, you won’t get far on this task alone.
With Forsaken Destiny 2 offers fans the opportunity to earn various titles and proudly display them for all to see. The titles are represented by a special text overlay that appears in-game next to the player’s name. Titles are meant to visually represent extensive achievements of players that they have accomplished in specific areas of the game.
How to Become Riven’s Bane in Destiny 2
Titles can only be earned with significant effort and time. Guardians must overcome numerous tasks in different activities within the game. Riven’s Bane is no exception.
But the unique aspect of this title: As a solo player, you’re at a disadvantage. Some achievements can only be earned as a member of a clan.
What Makes the Title Riven’s Bane Special? Riven’s Bane is tied to the Raid Seal under Triumphs. The requirements for this title can be viewed through the corresponding seal in the game menus.
Here you can find more info about the title Riven’s Bane
For this title, you need to participate in the Forsaken Raid Last Wish. There are a total of 16 Triumphs to earn for Riven’s Bane. Many of these achievements consist of several tasks combined.
The following tasks must be mastered to become Riven’s Bane:
General Tasks for Riven’s Bane
The following Triumphs for Riven’s Bane can be completed without a clan membership, but are significantly easier to achieve within a clan:
Complete the Emblem “Raid: Last Wish” in the collections. This involves collecting all raid-specific armor pieces and weapons (including One Thousand Voices) as well as the emblem, Ghost shell, ship, and Sparrow that can be earned in the Forsaken Raid Last Wish with one of the three Guardian classes.
Struck by Lightning: Complete all raid encounters with a fireteam consisting only of Guardians with Ark type focus.
Sunburn: Complete all raid encounters with a fireteam consisting only of Guardians with Solar type focus.
Night Owl: Complete all raid encounters with a fireteam consisting only of Guardians with Void type focus.
The New Meta: Complete all raid encounters with a fireteam consisting solely of one Guardian class (for example, only Titans).
Oh my Killer: Successfully complete the raid Last Wish.
Petra’s Run: Complete the new Forsaken raid in “Petra’s Run” mode. This means: No dying! Because if any fireteam member dies, the entire raid team is immediately thrown back into orbit and the raid must be restarted.
Put a Flag On It: Place a total of five Raid Banners in the raid Last Wish. You can purchase them from Petra Venj in the Dreaming City for 5,000 Glimmer or three Legendary Shards.
Treasure Hunt: Loot 10 hidden chests in the raid Last Wish.
Clan Tasks for Riven’s Bane
These tasks can only be completed if you are a member of a clan.
Complete the Clan Challenges Colosseum Champion, Summoning Ritual, Strength of Memory, Staying Outside, and Endless Battle. These weekly rotating challenges can be obtained in the Tower from Hawthorne. The challenges can only be taken on by clans that must also be at least level 4.
Clan Night – Last Wish: Complete the Forsaken raid with a fireteam consisting only of clan members.
This is what a title looks like in-game
How to Equip the Title Riven’s Bane
Once you have unlocked all 16 Triumphs for this title, the raid seal can be activated in the menu. You can then finally equip Riven’s Bane. This title will then appear accordingly in the character menu. Furthermore, it will be visible to all other Guardians in-game under your player name.
Are you already wearing this title with pride or are you still struggling with a specific triumph?
A group of players fired three atomic bombs in Fallout 76. The outcome was unexpected for the fans.
What happened? A few players from Fallout 76 gathered around YouTuber Nickaroo93 to start a unique project. They dropped three atomic bombs on a single spot.
This resulted in three atomic mushrooms and three contaminated zones appearing in a short amount of time. However, it seems that was too much for the server: it crashed.

This was the plan: If an atomic bomb is dropped on a “tear” in Fallout 76, the area temporarily becomes a raid for the entire server. A level 95 elite Scorchbeast queen appears, which can be fought by all players.
Nickaroo93 had already shown this in one of his previous videos. The players then wondered what would happen if three bombs fell simultaneously: Would there be a queen three times as strong?
Are the bombs really to blame? Whether the server crashed because the atomic bombs were dropped is not substantiated. The crash merely occurred at the same time.
Crashes are still relatively frequent in Fallout 76, although the patch from November 19 might fix that. However, the fact that a crash coincides with the launching of three atomic bombs does not seem like a coincidence.
What do you think? Is this an obvious error by Bethesda, or is it simply not intended to drop three atomic bombs on one spot? Leave us a comment and chat with other fans in our Fallout group. More information and news about Fallout 76 can be found on Facebook.
Fortnite: Battle Royale is still facing criticism from artists who find their dances and moves in the game without permission. Now, the actor playing Turk from the sitcom Scrubs has also expressed his concerns.
Which dance are we talking about? Every Fortnite player knows the default dance that every player gets for free when they open an account in the game. But like many emotes in Fortnite, this move is also not an original creation of Epic Games.
Fortnite stole my dance!
Scrubs invented it: The “Fortnite dance” actually comes from the popular sitcom “Scrubs” from the early 2000s. In it, aspiring doctors navigate through the chaos of working in a hospital. One of the characters, the surgeon Turk, performs an improvised dance in one episode called the “Poison Dance”.

At a reunion of the Scrubs cast at the media event “Vulture Festival”, Turk actor Donald Faison was asked to demonstrate the dance live. However, he declined with the somewhat sarcastic words: “If you want to see the dance, play Fortnite, because they stole that shit!”

Epic asked for permission: A joking discussion followed about whether the actors should receive money for the dance. The producer explains in the talk that Epic specifically asked whether it was okay to use the dance.
Donald Faison, however, stood by his opinion and completely refused to perform the dance.
More rappers are upset
The issue with the “stolen” dances is far from resolved. Rather, once again, rappers have complained about Epic for incorporating their moves into Fortnite without permission.
Rapper 2 Milly wants to sue: Recently, rapper 2 Milly was upset because Fortnite used his dance “Milly Rock” without asking and without paying fees, calling it “Swipe It” in Fortnite as part of the Season 5 Battle Pass. He now intends to file a lawsuit to “protect what belongs to me”.
That the moves were originally created by someone else outside the game would therefore go unnoticed by millions of people.
What is the legal situation? It is still legally difficult to take action against the adoption of dances. There are no comprehensive legal requirements on how to protect such content and declare it as intellectual property.
Therefore, Epic is likely still in the right when they happily use the dances and moves of other artists. However, since the Fortnite developers make money from the dances, it would be fair if the original artists could somehow be compensated.
