The successor to TERA has been announced and a few exciting details revealed. Those with a powerful smartphone can look forward to TERA Frontier.
A few days ago, the publisher Kakao Games, most likely known from Black Desert, announced that they have secured the worldwide publishing rights to a new MMORPG. It is about “TERA Frontier”, a mobile MMORPG based on the original TERA for PC.
What do we know about TERA Frontier? So far not much. It is only known that it is being developed for mobile devices and utilizes the powerful Unreal Engine 4.
That sounds like TERA Frontier will focus on appealing graphics, for which the original TERA was also known at launch.
When is the release of TERA Frontier? A specific release date for TERA Frontier has not yet been provided. Kakao Games has only announced that they intend to release the MMORPG “in 2019,” within the next 13 months. This suggests that development has already progressed quite far.
Will the game also be released in Europe? Nothing is known about that yet. Kakao Games has secured the “worldwide” publishing rights, so there is nothing standing in the way of a release in Germany and Europe. However, this step has not yet been decided.
Who is developing TERA Frontier? The game is being developed by the studio Red Sahara, of which not much has been heard in this country so far. They were acquired by Bluehole and are now part of the new “KRAFTON” project – essentially a new name for Bluehole and the associated developer studios.
Are you looking forward to a mobile TERA? Or do you believe that MMORPGs have no place on a smartphone?
In FIFA 19 four top clubs receive a special jersey each. You can secure them starting now – even in real life.
These clubs receive special jerseys: In total, four clubs receive an exclusively designed special jersey in FIFA 19. These clubs are Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Manchester United, and Juventus Turin.
This is what the jerseys look like:
FC Bayern Munich special jersey:
Juventus Turin special jersey:
Manchester United special jersey:
Real Madrid special jersey:
The designs are supposed to reflect various characteristics of the clubs. For example, the Bayern jersey focuses on the stadium anthem “Stern des Südens”, which plays on match days at the Allianz Arena.
Jerseys also in real life
Very popular last year: There was a similar action in FIFA 18, where the four clubs received a special jersey. The Bayern jersey looked like this:
The design excited many fans, and questions arose about a real version of the jersey. However, the special jerseys were only available in digital form in the game.
This year is different: Unlike in 2018, the special jerseys are actually available in real life this year as well. A total of 7000 pieces are available and can be purchased online directly from Adidas or the clubs.

The fan reactions are as follows: Players react quite mixed to the new jerseys. In comments under the announcement trailer, some praise the jersey designs while others criticize them. One user even compares the Juventus shirt to “spilled ice cream”. Many are annoyed that it was these four clubs that received special jerseys instead of other clubs.
Furthermore, it is often criticized that the game should rather be corrected than integrating special jerseys. In the comments, for example, “better servers” are demanded in response to many problems in recent weeks. The gameplay, even after the last patch, continues to be criticized.
Several ways to the goal: If you want the special jerseys for your club in Ultimate Team, there are several ways to unlock the shirts.
Favorite club: The easiest option. If you registered one of the four clubs as your favorite club when starting FIFA 19, you will simply receive the jersey as a gift. It should now be available in your FUT club. Caution: This option only works if you chose the club before November 28.
Weekly objectives: Starting November 30, there will be weekly objectives that allow you to earn the four jerseys. This option was not available last year.
Packs: Of course, you can also simply draw the special jerseys from packs – but only from December 14.
Transfer market: The jerseys are tradable, so you can also obtain them on the transfer market, provided someone is offering them.
The content of MMOs can generally be divided into two main areas: PvE and PvP. We want to know what MeinMMO users prefer. Do you prefer playing with others or against them?
That’s the appeal of PvE: What would major MMORPGs do without raids? Difficult raids and dungeons attract players with the prospect of cool loot, but that is only part of the fun. For raiders, the gameplay in PvE plays at least as big a role as the fancy rewards at the end.
In epic battles against giant monsters, players must together outsmart the new gameplay mechanics and devise a good strategy to ultimately be victorious. And when the boss falls for the first time, that is a really awesome feeling for many.
That’s the appeal of PvP: A large number of gamers also love to compete with others. No matter how good an AI is or how tricky a raid boss, they will eventually become predictable. Players learn their moves and can eventually face them in their sleep.
A real human opponent, on the other hand, can be a true challenge.
Whether in a duel or team plays, you will never experience the exact same fight twice. PvP matches are as varied as the people you play against. Thus, it will never be monotonous. The feeling of triumph at the end of a fight against another person is also all the more satisfying.
Competitive MMO games are therefore popping up like mushrooms.
Irie: I am definitely a PvE player. PvE content has always been the most important aspect of an online game for me. It just feels cool to gradually delve into the raid or other endgame content and come up with strategies that work best for the group. I also find that a raid where everything works optimally and everyone plays their role well just looks beautiful.
Also, I am fundamentally bad at PvP. Pure PvP games are therefore nothing for me.
Sven: I used to enjoy PvP, playing against each other: A lot of Call of Duty and Battlefield. With Destiny, the tide turned.
Since then, I love the PvE in co-op mode with others. Solving missions together with friends is now much more fun for me than competing directly with others.
Jürgen: I am a non-competitive person who enjoys going on adventures with other players. Therefore, I prefer PvE games. I find co-op shooters like Warframe or Borderlands particularly awesome.
However, I often lack time, and therefore I only get to play – if at all – when my buddies are already asleep. That way I can always play a round of Fortnite, which is PvP, but is also a lot of fun.
And now it’s your turn: Are you a PvP or PvE player? Do you prefer to storm the stronghold of a raid boss with an alliance in co-op? Or do you prefer to dismantle other players in PvP according to all the rules of the game? Tell us!

A character editor in Red Dead Redemption 2 is currently dividing the community. Are the characters in Red Dead Online just ugly or realistic? Especially the teeth of the characters are under criticism from players.
The online mode of RDR 2 has entered beta this week and is inviting more and more players to test it. They are confronted with a controversial character editor: Are the characters really ugly, are they realistic, or do players simply need to take enough time to create a decent outlaw?
Teeth under scrutiny
Players criticize dental hygiene: The topic that seems to unite all factions of players appears to be the teeth of the characters in the online mode. While some players believe that crooked and yellow teeth contribute to realism, most are not convinced by the options available: there are only yellowed, half-fallen, rotten, or entirely missing teeth.
Players joke that Dutch van der Linde’s gang in the single-player mode seems to have a good dental insurance plan. Because the outlaws of the gang all had quite respectable teeth.
Since the launch of the RDO beta, players have been divided over the character editor of the online mode. While some find everything about the editor terrible, others celebrate the creation tool.
Players find the editor ugly: Some players do not find the editor well-developed or the options too restricted. In their opinion, it is not possible to create good-looking characters.
While all the NPCs look good, the player’s character should stand out uncomfortably in cutscenes. In the opinion of these players, Rockstar should improve the editor.
Players find the editor successful: Again, others celebrate exactly this “ugliness” of the characters. In their opinion, this contributes to the realism of the game. That Rockstar values a realistic world, can also be seen in the game at the horse testicles.
Others believe that you just need to take enough time to create truly unique and pretty figures. In their opinion, players who complain about the editor simply haven’t invested enough time in their character.
On Reddit, players have also provided some user tips for character creation. If you take a little time, you should be able to achieve a good result:
Start with a “clean” base: remove makeup, beards, freckles, etc.
Choose the hairstyle during creation that allows you to see the face well
Some categories, such as forehead and eyes or nose, can still be adjusted manually when you select them
Play around with the individual sliders and remember what they change about your character
If you are satisfied with the appearance of the face, you can add more details: change the complexion and add moles, freckles, and scars as well as makeup or beards if necessary
For clothing, keep only the clothes that you actually choose during creation
What do you think about the editor? Have you created your character yet and are you satisfied, or do you also find the options terrible?
In Fortnite: Battle Royale, top streamer Ninja is disappointed with the bad atmosphere among pro players. The Twitch star wishes for more respect for Fortnite. After all, streamers and pros make a living from it.
This is what Ninja said: In a stream with Ninja and his colleagues DrLupo, Timthetatman, and Chap, the latter complained about the in-game sounds. “I hate them!” was Chap’s statement.
Then Ninja intervened with strong words: “Chap, try not to sound so angry. ‘I hate the sound! I hate it!’ We need more positive pro players, man. I’m glad you brought that up because I’m fed up with all the people who earn a living from the game and make a fortune off it and then say they find the game terrible. You know what, then you don’t have to play it!”
This is how Chap reacted: Ninja’s harsh criticism had immediate success, and Chap admitted that he didn’t mean the “hate” that way and that his phrasing was probably a bit exaggerated. He just meant that the sound could have been better.
Ninja criticizes Myth and Tfue for toxic behavior
These Fortnite pros are also toxic: After the topic was initially raised, Ninja further criticized top players and streamers Myth and Tfue.
This is what Myth said: The popular and controversial streamer Myth drew attention with a tweet in which he demanded that the creator of the turret in Fortnite should be fired. According to Ninja, that was quite rude and impolite, especially for a streamer in his position. Moreover, it’s not just one guy at Epic responsible for an item, but whole teams.
This is what Tfue said: Tfue is one of the best players in the world and a member of the eSports team FaZe. According to Ninja, he often throws shade at the game and labels 90 percent of competitive content as “dog shit.” “I love how all the pros and people trying to compete in this game just hate everything! […] I just don’t get it!”
https://youtu.be/T7TgvGjk8aA
A response from the criticized players Myth and Tfue is still pending but is eagerly awaited.
What do you think about the matter? Should pro gamers and streamers like the game that makes them rich and famous? Or are such pros actually the perfect critics since they know the game with all its strengths and weaknesses?
The release of the Closed Alpha of Anthem is practically around the corner. We will show you how to register for the alpha to participate in the testing phase and be one of the first to play Anthem.
On the weekend of December 8th and 9th, the open-world shooter “Anthem” will enter its closed alpha phase. Those who want to participate can register on EA’s website. In this post, we will show you what to expect and how the registration process works.
EA and Bioware stated that a testing phase will take place on December 8th and 9th. The special thing about this is that you do not need to pre-order the game to participate.
Who can participate in the Closed Alpha? Everyone can register for the test phase and then hope for luck to be selected. The closed alpha is not tied to pre-orders, EA Access, or Origin Access.
The testing phase has limited spots: You should hurry and register quickly, as the spots for the closed alpha of Anthem are limited. If you don’t get in directly, you will be placed on a waiting list.
How long can you register? Registrations for the test phase are open until the evening of December 3rd.
Then select which platform you want to play on – PC, PS4, or Xbox One – only one is allowed
In the next menu, you should indicate the times when you want to play on December 8th or 9th
There are 4 testing phases, 2 on each day – you can sign up for all or just individual ones
Once you have selected everything, you are registered
Keep in mind that this is not a guarantee of participating in the alpha
How will I know if I was selected? If you are selected for testing, it will be displayed on the playtesting page in your profile. You should also receive an email that will show you instructions for downloading the alpha client.
Why is the website so slow: The demand for this alpha test is expected to be very high. While registering, we noticed that the site sometimes takes several minutes to load a form. So give the registration some time.
Can I share the contents of the Closed Alpha? No. There is a strict NDA. So no posts, no sharing of images, no streaming.
The research breakthrough in December for Pokémon GO brings back all previous legendary research breakthroughs.
What is a research breakthrough? Completing a field research task over seven days gives you the chance to encounter a rare Pokémon in the research breakthrough. In November, this Pokémon was Ninjatom.
In December, trainers have the opportunity to encounter Arktos, Lavados, Zapdos, Entei, Raikou, and Suicune.
Multiple Pokémon in the research breakthrough in December
For the first time, players have the chance to obtain multiple Pokémon from research breakthroughs. Until now, only one Pokémon could be obtained in a month.
In reference to the Community Day: These research breakthroughs are aligned with the Community Day in December. There, too, all previous Pokémon from the past Community Days return.
Can you choose which Pokémon you want? So far, it is not known which Pokémon you will receive in which research breakthrough. It is assumed that chance determines which Pokémon appears as a reward.
Which Pokémon are the best in the breakthrough? Now that there are six different Pokémon in the research breakthrough, the question of which Pokémon are the best arises.
Raikou: Based purely on stats and moves, Raikou is the best Pokémon. It is the second-best Electric attacker in the game and most useful.
Lavados: With Lavados, you get the chance at the best Fire attacker in the game. So, if you don’t have a good Lavados yet, you can hope for the research breakthrough.
Zapdos: Zapdos follows Raikou in the list of best Electric attackers.
New field researches in December: Besides the new Pokémon in the research breakthrough, there are also various new field researches in December. We will only find out what they are on December 1st.
New Shiny and new Pandir: If Niantic stays true to its line, there will also be a new Pandir form in December. Additionally, a new Shiny family could be added. In November, the Shiny family of Raupy was added to the game.
What do you think of the new research breakthrough?
Unfortunately, The Elder Scrolls Blades, the latest game in the successful series from Bethesda, will not be released in 2018. The developers recently announced that the title has been postponed to 2019.
The Elder Scrolls Blades will not be released in 2018: The new Elder Scrolls game for mobile devices was originally scheduled for release at the end of 2018 for iOS and Android. However, in a tweet from Bethesda, it was recently revealed that this will not be met. The Elder Scrolls Blades is expected to arrive in 2019.
Why is the game being delayed? Unfortunately, Bethesda did not provide reasons for the delay. However, you can still sign up for early access on the homepage of The Elder Scrolls Blades.
Mobile game with high-quality graphics
What is The Elder Scrolls Blades? The Elder Scrolls Blades is the latest game in the popular Elder Scrolls series. The title is being released for mobile devices, but is also expected to enable crossplay with PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Virtual Reality. The Elder Scrolls Blades aims to offer an unprecedented splendor of graphics and effects for mobile.
In the game, you explore dark dungeons and mysterious forests. There, you will fight monsters with a sophisticated action combat system and collect loot. However, Elder Scrolls Blades will not offer an open world.
You can find an initial preview report from GamesCom 2018 here:
The Elder Scrolls Online developer Zenimax has announced that changes to racial traits will be made in the future. Players have very different reactions to the announced changes.
Among the players, three camps are forming. Some players are looking forward to the adjustments. Others do not trust Zenimax to make these changes or fear that all races will play the same. The rest of the players are taking a wait-and-see approach.
The racial skills are to be revised
This has happened: Zenimax has announced that the influence of passive racial traits will be reduced. Players should have the option to choose between different passive abilities that best support their current role. The influence of the traits is expected to increase with higher levels.
Despite the changes, each race should still retain its individuality.
What are racial traits? Racial traits grant different bonuses. For example, agile Khajiit have an increased critical hit chance, while High Elves have more Magicka to use abilities.
The players are torn
What do the players think? A player initiated a survey in the official ESO forum, in which 408 players participated. There is no clear trend in the survey results. 40% of players tend to lean negative, while 31% are positive about the changes. 26% find the announcement neutral.
This is criticized:
Some players fear that this will make the choice of race irrelevant, and players will only choose based on appearance.
Since racial abilities have a certain influence on a character’s strength, some players spend quite a bit of money changing their race to maximize their performance in PvP and PvE. This group criticizes the changes especially because it would render their past investments worthless.
Some players criticize Zenimax’s ability to maintain game balance. They do not trust the developer to properly revise the racial abilities. An example is the unnecessary change to the Sorcerer.
This is praised:
Some races have significantly stronger racial abilities than others. For example, High Elves are very good mages, while Orcs bring good passive abilities for PvP in Tamriel. The planned changes could restore balance among the races.
Currently, certain race and class combinations are better than others. Those who want to get the most out of their class are therefore limited to specific combinations of race and class. The changes could lead to new class builds, which would be beneficial for the diversity of the game.
That’s why some players do not care:
Some players believe that races should be chosen independently of alliances to better balance PvP in Tamriel.
Currently, not enough information about the planned changes is known. Consequently, some players are observing and holding back for now.
Some players generally oppose the existence of passive abilities. In their view, it is good if Zenimax reduces the influence of passive abilities.
What do you think of the planned changes to racial skills?

In a new dev blog post, the developers of The Division 2 have finally released new information about the skills. Here are the key details.
It is currently rather quiet about The Division, but there are regularly new updates on the upcoming The Division 2. Developer Massive publishes new information every month in the Intelligence Annex.
The latest entry mainly focuses on skills and their various modifications. First, the blog presents 5 skill categories, with more to come.
5 Skill Categories in The Division 2
In addition to a few old skills like the seeker mine and the turret, there will also be some new abilities. They are divided into five categories.
These skills from The Division 2 have been presented:
Chem Launcher
Drone
Hive
Seeker Mine
Turret
For each category, there are several modifications that function differently. Skills gain various modes of operation that can be offensive, defensive, or supportive with bonuses.
Not all skill mods are freely available: Some modifications can only be selected with the three specializations of The Division 2. Specializations can be chosen after reaching level 30. You can read all the information about the specializations on our site MeinMMO.
The Chem Launcher
The Chem Launcher is a novel skill. It functions similarly to the first aid skill from the first game. You have a kind of hand cannon with which you can target a specific area.
Mods change the effects of your skill. You can influence how the skill works. There are offensive and defensive variants.
These are the mods of the Chem Launcher:
Firestarter – With this mod, you shoot canisters that release a flammable, nearly invisible gas. These clouds can be ignited by projectiles from weapons. Enemies running into the gas cloud can also ignite it.
Riot Foam – You can shoot canisters filled with riot foam. This is a kind of foam that can be used to control crowds. It has already been seen in released gameplay. The foam is sticky and spreads quickly.
Oxidizer – The oxidizer fires canisters filled with corrosive chemicals. The clouds of these chemicals slowly eat away at your enemies’ armor.
Reinforcer – With the reinforcer, you can shoot clouds filled with a kind of repair powder that can restore your armor. Friends and yourself can be healed this way.
The Drone
Another skill that has been newly developed for The Division 2. It flies over your enemies’ heads and can either be supportive or offensive.
This is how the drone mods work:
Striker – An offensive variant. In combat, the drone shoots at your enemies. It can be controlled remotely, allowing you to target specific enemies.
Defender – This drone creates a kind of barrier and protects you from enemy fire. With each hit, the drone loses energy, and it is not protected from enemy bullets. You can also protect other team members remotely.
Tactician – With this mod, the drone flies at the highest possible point above you and acts as a kind of tactical scanner. It shows you the locations of enemies while active. This skill can only be used by the sniper specialization.
Bombardier – You can send this drone to fly over a specific area. It will then rain explosives down on your enemies’ heads.
Fixer – Another skill mod with a defensive benefit. The drone repairs your armor for a certain period. You can send it to a specific location remotely, or select team members as the target for the help. Even their skills, like turrets, can be repaired this way.
The Hive is an experimental technology. Like the drone and the chem launcher, it is one of the new skills in The Division 2. When you place the Hive, automatic mini-drones are released. They can target your enemies or support your team.
This is how the Hive mods work:
Stinger – A swarm of mini-drones attacks everything in their range. They deal regular damage and specifically target weak points.
Restorer – Within their range, the mini-drones can detect when players or team members lose armor. They can then repair the damaged armor as soon as they reach the player.
Booster – A mini-drone is sent out for each team member, which improves weapon handling, movement, and other physical capabilities for a short period.
Reviver – In a specific area, the reviver can revive players. You can specifically send the drones to revive others. If you hold down a certain button, the revival time window accelerates.
The Seeker Mine
Many fans may remember the Seeker Mine from the first game. It has both old and new modifications.
This is how the Seeker Mine mods work:
Explosive – The regular Seeker Mine. It automatically seeks or targets a target on command. It detonates upon contact and knocks your enemies off balance. However, it does not explode immediately, and you can dodge within a short time window.
Airburst – This mine rolls to a certain spot and then causes a large explosion that affects all enemies in the area.
Mender – With this variant, you can distribute repair clouds. They can restore your armor. If you do not select a specific target, the mine automatically seeks out the team member with the lowest armor. This mod is exclusively intended for the survival specialist.
Cluster – The Seeker Mine splits into several smaller variants. They can target multiple enemies simultaneously and detonate among them.
The Turret
Many are already familiar with the turret from The Division 1. However, it gets a few extra mods for the second part.
This is how the turret mods work:
Assault – This turret targets your enemies and deals regular damage. It can rotate 360° and attacks in an area that is closest to the enemy.
Incinerator – This is how your turret works like a flamethrower. It can burn your enemies within a certain range. You can turn it on or off, and the flames can burn multiple enemies at once.
Artillery – This type of turret fires an explosive shot at a location of your choice. Similar to a grenade launcher, you can only fire a single shot at a time, and the projectiles cover a small area. This mod belongs to the demolition specialist.
Sniper – Similar to the assault mod, this turret automatically targets your enemies. However, it shoots semi-automatically, dealing more damage per hit. It also has a greater range.
Pretty much every MMORPG has classes, but usually they are nothing special. However, some online role-playing games have particularly crazy and unique classes. Here we present a bunch of such classes and let you vote on which ones are the best.
The classes in most MMORPGs are often just the same variations of warrior, mage, healer, and rogue. Sometimes there are weird hybrids of the archetypes, but they are rarely really original.
Therefore, it is all the more interesting when a class stands out from the crowd and is truly cool, crazy, or unique. A good example of such a class is the newly introduced Graffiti Artist from Aion. She fights with paint and slows down enemies. Additionally, she is a wonderful group supporter.

Among the unusual classes, there are some that are particularly well done. Therefore, we want to know from you which classes you find particularly cool.
Examples include the Revenant from Guild Wars 2, who channels the souls of famous heroes and has different skills and play styles depending on the soul. In both installments of the game, there is the Mesmer, who drives enemies insane with illusions and doubles. The Dervish from the first installment was also extremely cool, swinging a scythe and using buffs and debuffs to enhance himself further.
In Blade & Soul, on the other hand, the Kung Fu Master is a tank class that negates a lot of damage when you master the complex combos and blocks. A similar gameplay is also required from the Guardian in Lord of the Rings Online. If you prefer something simpler, you can play as a Summoner, who calls a cat to do all the work.
A whole bunch of cool classes can be found in Dark Age of Camelot. There you can summon wild mushrooms as an Animist. Or as a Theurg, spam the enemy with tons of summoned pets.
The Bard in Final Fantasy XIV, on the other hand, is a rather conservative support hero who can actually make and play music with his lute.
Choose your favorite class: But enough of our suggestions. We would like to know from you which classes you find particularly cool. Name them in the comments and we will later create a poll from them. The best classes will then be crowned and honored in a dedicated article.

In a blog post, BioWare’s General Manager explained that there are big plans for Star Wars: The Old Republic. An end seems to be not in sight.
In recent weeks and months, the MMORPG SWTOR has become quieter. While there are still small updates with mini content drops, like the recent new Huttball map, the great content flood is missing.
A bit of hope is now given by one of BioWare’s heads, General Manager Casey Hudson.
What was said? In a blog post, the “November Update,” Hudson also said a few words about SWTOR:
“And even as we prepare for new projects, our team on Star Wars: The Old Republic is hard at work delivering ongoing entertainment – they are developing new worlds and storylines that are among the most ambitious and exciting I have seen from the game so far.”
Community is skeptical: The community of Star Wars: The Old Republic is rather skeptical about these announcements. According to some players, the content flow has significantly decreased in recent months and the quality has also declined.
Many fans hope and wait for a brand new expansion, with a large cohesive story and a nice cinematic. An announcement about this is still pending, which worries the fans. At least the roadmap for fall 2018 is almost completed.
Hope for Mass Effect? But Hudson also gives hope to other franchises, such as Mass Effect. In the letter, he mentions that there are still plans for the future regarding Mass Effect. However, an announcement or concrete reveal of what that might be has not yet been made. So we must continue to wonder if the series has died with “Andromeda”.
What do you think of these words? Is this a hopeful, promising look into the future for you? Or is it just “PR talk” without substance?

In Season 5, the power level cap in Destiny 2 is supposed to be increased. However, even though Season 5 is already underway, the new max power level is not yet active. Now Bungie has clarified the situation.
Recently, the developers of Destiny 2 announced that as part of the Season 5, the Season of the Forge, the maximum power level of the Guardians will rise – as a free update for all owners of the Forsaken expansion. The power level cap is set to increase by 50 points per season; in the current season, that would be 650. However, the change is still awaited.
New Power Level Cap in Season 5 – What You Need to Know
This is why many players are confused: Bungie’s announcement has caused confusion among players. After all, Season 5 has already begun on November 27. Progressing in power level beyond the current cap of 600 is currently impossible.
In the Gameplay Calendar, a kind of roadmap for the second year of Destiny 2, the feature is listed without a specific date for the period from December 2018 to February 2019.
This is what Bungie says: Now Bungie has cleared up all uncertainties in its current “This Week at Bungie” blog (TWaB) and revealed further details about power level progression.
The new cap will come with update 2.1.1. This will be the update that is released next Tuesday, December 4, with the launch of the first premium DLC “The Black Armory“. The new level cap can then be reached by all owners of Forsaken; the Annual Pass is not required for this.
The soft cap will remain at power level 500 – just like in the Forsaken expansion. A soft cap is a kind of limit up to which players level relatively quickly. Because loot up to this limit can be found almost everywhere.
After that, you will only find power upgrades, so-called powerful rewards, through specific sources, of which the pool is limited. This pool remains unchanged for all owners of Forsaken. Buyers of the Annual Pass will receive additional new sources for powerful gear.
For players under a power level of 550, Prism Engrams will drop more frequently and provide a higher power increase so they can reach endgame levels faster.
New information about the level requirements in the raid: In light of the new power level cap, the studio also discussed the power level requirements for the upcoming new raid “Scourge of the Past”. The recommended power level will be 640 – only 10 levels below the new level cap.
However, there will not be a minimum level required to enter the raid. The further the guardians progress within the three days of preparation, the easier the first foray into the new raid should be for them. This starts on December 7, 2018, at 6 PM our time.
By the way: Actually, the veteran rewards were also supposed to be delivered with update 2.1.1 on December 4 as a token of gratitude to all players who played Forsaken until October 16, 2018. This date has now been postponed due to technical difficulties to December 18.
In Red Dead Online, players are reporting an absurd glitch or exploit. Apparently, boats suddenly fall from the sky in the online mode of Red Dead Redemption 2. The streets of Saint Denis are partially clogged with burnt-out boats.
Where is it raining boats? In the city of Saint Denis, boat showers are becoming more frequent.
As the US site Kotaku reports, it is growing into a sort of natural phenomenon. The boats either appear in places where they simply don’t belong, or they even fall from the sky.
Source: Twitter
On reddit, players of Red Dead Online are discussing the boats. On social networks like Twitter, they exchange photos of their random encounters with boats.
If too many boats are lying in the streets, even performance issues arise, it is said. Additionally, invisible debris is said to be haunting the streets of Saint Denis and causing problems.

No one can currently explain what exactly is going on and why so many boats are populating the city. Players report they have discovered dozens of burnt-out boats.
What is causing this? No one knows, a statement from developer Rockstar is still pending.
Some think it is merely a glitch that one would expect in a beta. Rockstar had specifically pointed out that such problems can occur in the beta.
However, a player on reddit believes that someone with malicious intent is behind it. He says: “Someone is making it rain boats. Someone must have probably found an exploit to spawn boats. Yesterday, it rained boats.”
Others even suspect that there could be ‘hackers’ at work.
But there is no confirmation for that yet.

In Fortnite: Battle Royale, players have been seeing a snowstorm approaching for some time now. However, the storm is actually something completely different. In truth, an iceberg is approaching the island.
This is behind the snowstorm: For some time now, you can observe a snowstorm on the horizon. However, players have taken a closer look and discovered that it is actually a massive iceberg. It is getting closer and holds even more secrets.
A castle is indeed coming!
A player discovered this in the ice: Sharp-eyed players have spotted a kind of building on the iceberg. However, only a Reddit user who glitched to the horizon could see exactly what was protruding from the ice.
From close up, you can immediately tell that a crenelated watchtower is protruding from the ice. It seems that a massive fortress or castle is frozen in the iceberg.
What do the iceberg and the fortress mean?
The iceberg is slowly approaching the coastline of the Fortnite island. However, it is unlikely to arrive immediately as Season 7 is expected to start on December 6. However, the iceberg could eventually bump into the island during the season and significantly enlarge it.
Is the Fortnite map expanding? That would be a first for Fortnite, as the map has constantly been reshaped, but its overall size has always remained the same. With the iceberg and the castle on it, the island would be expanding for the first time.
These clues are about the killer robots: Additionally, some players suspect a connection between the iceberg and the Robot A.I.M. It seems to originate from this iceberg island, as it has frozen limbs. Furthermore, the symbol of the robot was discovered when the sounds of the approaching snowstorm/iceberg were run through a spectrograph.
So, is an army of killer bots really coming out of the iceberg, as this leak suggests?
The multiplayer mode of Red Dead Redemption 2 has started, allowing you to create your own cowboys and cowgirls. If you’re still looking for the perfect name in the Wild West, our tips might help you.
Some of you have already started in the online mode of Red Dead Redemption 2. Others might still be waiting for their chance to get started in the beta of Red Dead Online. For those of you who are still thinking about the perfect Wild West name for your alter ego, we have gathered some examples and tips.
How to find your Wild West name for Red Dead Online
On the internet, you will definitely find authentic names from the Wild West and their meanings. Some baby name websites can also help you with older names.
Websites for parents, baby name sites
On many name websites, you can learn about authentic names that have fallen out of fashion. You will often also find further information, such as the meaning or popularity of the names.
Most people can imagine that the name Butch is derived from the English word ‘butcher’, which actually means butcher. But did you know that Carson means “son who lives in the swamp” or that Wayne stands for “craftsman or wagon driver”?
Suitable names from the time of legendary gunslingers and outlaws for male and female outlaws can easily be found on such name sites. Suitable websites include Babycenter or SheKnows.
Real and fictional people of the Wild West
If you’re already looking for a name for a cowboy or a cowgirl, you can also draw from known real or fictional characters. Many websites offer information about the Wild West and its inhabitants.
On Wikipedia, you’ll find many articles about real people of the time and how they lived. But also information about fictional characters from stories, films, or television.
There are also some websites that specialize in information about known cowboys and gunslingers. The website Linger and Look presents some well-known figures with pictures and indicates how they lived and died.
You can read, for example, that the notorious bandit queen Belle Starr, who stole horses and smuggled whiskey, was shot in an ambush at the age of 40. The famous outlaw Kid Curry, on the other hand, committed suicide in a shootout in 1904.
However, you can also simply look to your favorite characters from westerns. But don’t be surprised if you often come across a “King Schultz” or “Lucky Luke”. More names from film and television can again be found on Linger and Look, some figures even include the names of their horses.
Name generators are already in use by some of you. They help us find names for various genres, whether it’s sci-fi, fantasy, or specific games and franchises.
There are also generators for the Wild West that provide you with various names for your male or female cowboy. Some generators even deliver the appropriate outlaw or nickname, so you can immediately piece together the right backstory for your character.
The Fallout series has always provided players with companions. In Fallout 76, these no longer exist in this form. However, one player has managed to tame an animal that is also one of the most dangerous.
What kind of animal was tamed? The player warbrand2 reported on the official Bethesda forum that he was able to tame a Yao Guai in Fallout 76. Yao Guai are mutated black bears and quite dangerous, especially for newcomers. As proof, he provided a screenshot.
This is how the first animal was tamed in Fallout 76
How did warbrand2 tame the bear? According to his story in the forum, warbrand2 found a “crippled” Yao Guai near a forest. The animal was walking alone along a road.
Although the Yao Guai was marked as aggressive (red health bar), it did not attack warbrand2. Instead, the player approached with the “Animal Friend” perk and tried to calm the Yao Guai.
The result was a message that he had tamed the Yao Guai and can now send it to his C.A.M.P. to guard it.
What do tamed animals do? According to warbrand2, tamed animals can be used as guards in the C.A.M.P. A tamed animal can be sent to the camp after taming to protect it from attackers.
So they are not real “animal companions”. Whether they will become that remains to be seen. At least in the calmed state, they apparently protect players for a while.
You need charisma and perks: In Fallout 76, you gain most special abilities through perks, which you equip and manage through the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. system of Fallout 76. According to warbrand2, you need certain requirements to tame:
the “Animal Friend” perk at level 3
a charisma value of at least 6
a specific Yao Guai
“Animal Friend” gives you the chance to calm low-level animals with a probability of 25% per level. Warbrand2 does not elaborate on why the increased charisma is needed.
The player also reports that he could only tame the “crippled” Yao Guai. These roam alone through the land and along the roads and do not attack you, even though they are classified as aggressive. You should not try with Yao Guai in a group.
Can other animals be tamed? The post in the forum has grown over time. The user BaseDweller has encountered a description of the perk in a wiki that also shows other animals as possible tamable guards.
Most of the animals are smaller ones like beavers, dogs, mole rats or opossums. However, the list also includes larger creatures that would make much more formidable guards:
It is also stated in the perk description on the wiki that taming can happen with a low chance instead of calming. So far, warbrand2 is the only player known to have achieved taming. Whether all this is true remains to be seen.

Currently, many Guardians are reporting an insurmountable obstacle in the Forsaken raid Last Wish. The gigantic ogre Morgeth turns out to be Destiny 2 as invincible. What is going on?
Destiny 2 is in a state of limbo: With the release of Season 5, Bungie has indicated that there may be unexpected issues that might only be resolved next week, when the Black Armory launches.
Unfortunately, an error has also crept into the raid “Last Wish” that prevents any progress under certain circumstances. Many Guardians are reporting on Reddit and also on MeinMMO about a bug that prevents the gigantic, misshapen ogre Morgeth from being defeated.
This is how the “Morgeth problem” manifests: Once the ogre reaches 50% strength, the game crashes. Neither switching weapons nor changing team composition makes a difference. Destiny 2 crashes regardless of whether you have already dealt damage to the ogre or not.
Fortunately, the creative community has found a (admittedly tricky) workaround.
This is how to avoid the ogre crash: Simply take down the beast before it reaches 50% strength. This is not easy, but doable. Set up a Well of Radiance, equip the freshly nerfed Ikelos shotgun (yes, it’s still the best choice for the job), have a Titan create a melting point, and fire everything you have.
You can also handle it in two damage phases, but you must incapacitate the ogre in time.
This way, you can take down the ogre before the game crashes. Alternatively, you can simply input a wish that allows you to start after the ogre (but who would want that?).
It is not known if the bug occurs on all platforms. At least PlayStation and Xbox players are reporting the issue on Reddit. Bungie has also recognized that this approach cannot be a permanent solution – and is responding.
This is what Bungie has to say about the ogre problem: Via Twitter, Bungie announced that they are aware of the issue and are currently investigating it. However, when a fix can be expected remains uncertain.
Patch expected next week: At the latest by next Tuesday, the problem should be resolved. Then players will download another patch that will fix the most urgent issues and unlock the Black Armory for season pass buyers.
Have you been spared from this problem? Or was the ogre also an insurmountable obstacle for you?

Week 10 of Season 6 in Fortnite: Battle Royale has hidden a banner again. The clue is provided by a wallpaper.
Once a week, the challenges in Fortnite: Battle Royale change for players. Season 6 has now reached Week 10, and the tasks were published on Thursday. This week, you should build many structures, visit Viking ships, or participate in cool time trials.
If you have completed all this, a secret banner awaits you.
How to find the banner? Season 6 is themed around the hunting group in Fortnite. With new loading screens, the developers provide players with hints about where the banner is hidden. They just need to pick it up.
Where to find the secret banner from Week 10?
This week’s loading screen shows a scene that radiates good vibes. On stage stands a musician, the well-known Battle Pass skin DJ Yonder, between huge speaker towers. To the side, you can see a guitarist with a Nightshade skin, being closely watched by Robot A.I.M.
The cheering crowd in the foreground consists of Fortnite characters who seem to celebrate the music. The hint to the banner is hidden on a speaker box. This time, however, not in the form of a banner.
And here is the clue: Coordinates are marked on a speaker. Below is the llama head.
Where to search? The wallpaper suggests that the secret hideout this week lies at the coordinates G8G9, H8H9. Look directly at the border of the 4 positions, in the middle. Then you should find the banner.
Requirement for the secret banner: To find the banner, you must first complete all standard tasks from Week 10. After that, you can interact with the banner at the location and collect it.
Video Explanation: To ensure you find the right spot and don’t run around the spawn point of the banner in vain, we are embedding a video here that shows the location.

Beware, campers: As always, be cautious of campers. They often wait for players looking to collect secret banners or stars and take them out from ambush. So first check your surroundings to make sure you are safe.
