Pokémon GO: Sinnoh Stone and new developments from Generation 4 are here

Noah Struthoff Noah Struthoff Reading time 3 minutes

In Pokémon GO there is now the Sinnoh Stone. This allows players to obtain some new evolutions from the 4th generation. 

A few days ago, data miner Chrales found the Sinnoh Stone in the code of Pokémon GO. It has now been implemented in the game and offers trainers several new Pokémon from the 4th generation.

We show you what the Sinnoh Stone is good for and which new Pokémon are now in the game.

Sinnoh Stone – All we know

What can the Sinnoh Stone do? The Sinnoh Stone is an evolution item and can evolve Pokémon that get an evolution in the 4th generation. So far, it can only evolve some Pokémon, not all that receive an evolution.

Sinnoh Stone Pokémon GO

How to obtain the Sinnoh Stone? You receive the Sinnoh Stone as a research breakthrough. To achieve this, you must complete field research for seven days. In addition to the Sinnoh Stone, you also receive the bug and ghost Pokémon Ninjatom as a reward.

Is there another way to get the Sinnoh Stone? So far, no other method is known to obtain the Sinnoh Stone in Pokémon GO. It seems that you can only receive one Sinnoh Stone per week.

How do I use the Sinnoh Stone? The Sinnoh Stone is used for the evolution of some Pokémon. For example, to evolve Kramurx, you need 100 candies and a Sinnoh Stone. This will be automatically redeemed during the evolution. Each Sinnoh Stone can only be used for one evolution.

Rizeros and other Pokémon now have an evolution

A total of eleven Pokémon can be evolved using the Sinnoh Stone. For each evolution, you need 100 candies.

  • Rizeros to Rihornior
  • Magmar to Magbrant
  • Elektek to Elevoltek
  • Kramurx to Kramshef
  • Togetic to Togekiss
  • Skorgla to Skorgro
  • Traunfugil to Traunmagil
  • Sniebel to Snibunna
  • Porygon 2 to Porygon Z
  • Roselia to Roserade
  • Zwirrklop to Zwirrfinst

Not all of these Pokémon are already available in the game.

New Shinys: With the evolutions, new Shinys are now also coming to Pokémon GO. There are now the following Pokémon in their shiny form:

  • Kramshef
  • Togekiss
  • Zwirrfinst
  • Roserade
  • Elevoltek
  • Magbrant

Event related to the evolutions: Since last night, players can also obtain some pre-evolutions of these Pokémon in 2 km eggs. This event runs until November 27.

Evolution costs fewer candies: Since their evolutions are now in the game, some evolutions have become cheaper. Some evolutions now only cost 25 candies instead of 50. This includes, for example, the evolutions of Rihorn or Porygon.

What about the other evolutions? With the Sinnoh Stone, not all Pokémon that get an evolution can be evolved yet. This includes, for example, the evolutions of Evoli or Keifel. These are partially still not found in the code. When these evolutions will come is not known.

What do you think of the new evolutions?

Here’s how to get caps, the money in Fallout 76

Andreas Bertits Andreas Bertits Reading time 3 minutes

Caps, also bottle caps, are important in the online game Fallout 76 as you can use them for fast travel and other things. We explain how to get Caps.

The way Caps work in Fallout 76 is somewhat different from the other games in the post-apocalyptic RPG series. Nevertheless, you should always try to collect as many bottle caps as possible.

Fallout-76-Map2-1

Bottle Caps – an Important Currency

What do you need the Caps for? There are basically three important uses for bottle caps:

  • Fast Travel: Once you unlock fast travel, you pay with Caps to be able to travel to certain locations with just one click. However, you must have visited those places before.
  • Medical Supplies from Vending Machines: In cities and outposts, you can find vending machines that sell you “Consumables”. These refill your health, but the items are very expensive!
  • Purchase of Blueprints: While you will find blueprints here and there, you can also buy them for Caps at the Greenbrier Hotel.

This is how you get Caps

How do you get Caps in the game? There are many ways to get bottle caps. For example, you find Caps occasionally when you defeat enemies or discover loot. We will now introduce you to some lucrative ways to get Caps.

Fallout 76 Thumbs Up Gameplay Title

Search for Bottle Cap Hides: It pays off to thoroughly search houses and shops. You often find hidden spots that contain several Caps.

Complete Group Events: In Fallout 76, there are events that are essentially designed for player groups, which promise some rewards in the form of Caps. Events may look like this:

  • Escort Mr. Messenger: You can also easily bring the robot to his destination alone, but it will be easier with friends.
  • Power Plant Restart: For this event, you need to find teammates to get a power plant back online.

It is important to search for events that are marked nearby on the map. Events are time-limited, and if you want to complete one that you need to travel to, the fast travel will cost you some Caps.

fallout 76 screen 9

Complete the Main Quest: Throughout the main mission, you will receive Caps repeatedly. Additionally, the Overseer will provide you with resources that you would otherwise have to buy.

Also, assist other players in completing the story quests. For missions that the party leader completes, you will receive some Caps as a reward.

Utilize Important Perks: There are Perk cards that help you earn more Caps.

  • Caps Collector: You gain more Caps from bottle cap hides on the map.
  • Fortune Finder: This ability signals through an audio prompt where a bottle cap hide is located.

Become a Bounty Hunter: By hunting players on whom a bounty is placed, you can earn Caps. Defeat the wanted player, and the bounty will be paid from their Caps.

This should make it a bit easier for you to get the coveted Caps in Fallout 76.

WoW: After 8 years, Blizzard finally gives you a top hat

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

For many transmog fans, this is the best change from patch 8.1 in World of Warcraft: Finally, there is a top hat to get.

The patch 8.1 Tides of Vengeance of World of Warcraft is full of great new features. But a small change was only included in the latest version of the patch on the PTR: a very special hat.

The long-awaited top hat: Since Cataclysm, there has been a model of a top hat in the game, which until now was only suitable for Worgen. With patch 8.1, there is the new transmog set “Duskhaven” – the name of a town from the Worgen starting area. It is suspected that the set and thus the cloth top hat will drop on the new island “Havenswood”, which thematically fits the Worgen.

WoW Top Hat Duskhaven Patch 81
Image source: wowhead

Few top hats, but no transmog: So far, there are only two top hats in the game that can be worn permanently. These are Lord Walden’s top hat from the Worgen starting area and a rare hat from the Blingtron reward. Since both are white items that have no stats and are not approved for transmog, they are currently only suitable for role players and not for “combat transmogs.” This should now change.

Fans are thrilled: How excited the transmog fans are can be easily seen from the comments on wowhead. There are reactions from players such as:

  • ARE WE FINALLY GETTING EASILY OBTAINABLE TOP HATS?
  • CAN IT BE. AFTER SO MANY YEARS. TRANSMOGRIFIABLE TOP HATS!
  • They should really, really be cosmetic items. But honestly, I believe they are cloth. It’s a start.
WoW Goblin Night Elf Cheer title

Are the top hats “just” cloth? The previous transmog sets from the island expeditions can be assigned to a clear armor class (cloth, leather, chain or plate), which is why there are concerns that the two sets with the top hat will only be available for cloth wearers.

Are you excited about the top hats and have you been planning a matching transmog for years? Or does a single hat model leave you rather cold?

Have you seen? With patch 8.1, “Mythic+” is changing due to a new, crazy affix!

The Hatch Event in Pokémon GO brings a new Shiny, special Eggs

Noah Struthoff Noah Struthoff Reading time 2 minutes

A new egg event surrounding Pokémon from the Kanto region is active in Pokémon GO. We tell you what you need to know.

New Egg Event: Since yesterday, November 14 at 10 PM, a lot has changed in the world of Pokémon GO. Niantic released the event Hatchathon. This gives Trainers the opportunity to hatch special Pokémon from Generation 1 in 2 km eggs.

We show you what you need to know about the new egg event and tell you which Pokémon you can look forward to.

Hatchathon – Everything you need to know

Almost two weeks duration: The new event will run for almost two weeks until November 27. During this time, players can hatch Pokémon from 2 km eggs that can be evolved in Generation 4.

Egg Event Pokémon GO

The following Pokémon will hatch from the new 2 km eggs:

  • Porygon
  • Rhyhorn
  • Elekid (can be Shiny)
  • Magby (can be Shiny)
  • Hoothoot (can be Shiny)

Only new eggs count: It is important that you can get the Pokémon only from new eggs. All eggs that you have spun since yesterday at 10 PM can contain the event Pokémon. Older eggs do not contain event Pokémon.

Shiny Elekid: A new Shiny is also coming with the event, which can now be hatched for the first time. Shiny Elekid is now available from eggs. Pay close attention to its appearance, because the Shiny form is hard to distinguish!

New boxes in the shop: As with every event, there are boxes available in the in-game shop. They promise discounts on items.

New clothing: In line with the release of the Let’s GO games, you can now dress your avatar in hats of Pikachu and Eevee. They are the title characters of the two games.

The Ashe patch has made some Overwatch unplayable

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

The new patch for Overwatch is causing some issues. Some players can’t even start Overwatch.

When the patch for Overwatch went live yesterday, there was great excitement. Finally, players could play as their new hero Ashe and unleash devastation on the battlefields of the game world with her and B.O.B. But the joy was quickly dampened – as some players are unable to play Overwatch. A bug is to blame for this.

What kind of bug is it? To call it “a bug” would be an understatement, as players report multiple errors at once. Commonly, it occurs that:

  • The main menu does not load at all and players remain stuck on the login screen.
  • The hero gallery does not work or does not display Ashe.
  • Players can join games, but the loading process never completes. After two minutes, they get kicked for inactivity.

The errors are not only occurring on PC but also in the PS4 and Xbox One versions of Overwatch, as this YouTuber’s video proves:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUqTDX-BZZg

How is the error fixed? Some players report that the error disappears after a complete reinstall of Overwatch – both on PC and consoles. But not all players find this helpful. Another patch from Blizzard will likely be needed.

von Benedict Grothaus

Fans are disappointed: Many fans are showing anger or outright rage, as some of the bugs were already discovered and reported on the PTR. They believe that Blizzard should listen more carefully and examine the forums attentively before releasing such a patch. After all, due to these bugs, some players now have received penalties for the ranked mode (as they are considered “inactive”) or have lost recognition levels.

For a complete, permanent fix, another patch from Blizzard will likely be needed to resolve the errors. This is supposedly already in the works and is expected to be released within the next hours or days.

Allegedly, Overwatch also has some other problems – namely with drugs.

Fallout 76: Those who were in the beta need a new character for some achievements

Benedict Grothaus Benedict Grothaus Reading time 2 minutes

Many activities in Fallout 76 reward you with achievements. Those who have already played the beta can carry over some of these achievements. However, others must be re-earned.

Pete Hines clarifies: Many players have asked whether their achievements from the beta can be transferred to the final game. In a tweet, chief Pete Hines explained: Yes, it is possible, except for quest achievements.

Fallout 76 People going into the Vault 2 Title

For some achievements, you need new characters

Which achievements will be credited to me? All progress from the Fallout 76 beta should actually be carried over to the final game. This has mostly worked for many contents.

Regarding the early release of Fallout 76 on November 13, many players have asked which achievements would be credited to them. Pete Hines responded to this in a tweet:

  • Achievements that require a quest (such as leaving the Vault) will not be transferred.
  • Achievements for things like building a weapon will be transferred.

Completed achievements will only be transferred if they were completed in the beta. However, anyone wanting to have all achievements will likely need to create a new character for Fallout 76.

Fallout 76 Grafton Monster from the Trailer 1

What are achievements good for? Achievements do not have a major impact on the game. They are primarily important for players who want to unlock all achievements and all 51 trophies. What trophies Fallout 76 has and what their requirements are can be found in our article.

Achievements are also a way to earn atoms. With atoms, you can unlock cosmetic items that allow you to change the appearance of your character or your base.

Fallout 76 Screenshot Atoms Costs

Most achievements also provide a small amount of atoms. However, for those who do not want to earn them, atoms can also be purchased for real money to spend them in the atom shop.

Are you true “trophy hunters”? Or are you less interested in achievements? Discuss with other fans in our Fallout group! On Facebook, you’ll also get the latest updates on Fallout 76.

Achievements may also cause issues with private servers. If you want to rent a server for Fallout 76, you will have to wait anyway.

Fortnite wrongly bans players, apologizes with many V-Bucks

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time 2 minutes

Fortnite: Battle Royale is taking a hard stance against cheaters and fraudsters. Sometimes, however, the wrong people get caught in the crossfire. But the developers at Epic are generous with such mistakes and offer V-Bucks as compensation.

Collateral damage in the fight against cheaters: Epic bans a large number of players every day for cheating or otherwise negative behavior. However, some players are wrongfully banned.

Unjustified bans are extremely frustrating when one is completely innocent and has to forgo their battle royale fun for an extended period.

On top of that, there is an annoying process to prove through customer service that one was actually innocent. However, in the case of Fortnite, at least one can look forward to a small bonus after the exhausting battle with customer support.

Fortnite: Check out the most obvious cheater in the world
von Schuhmann

Compensation for Victims

What happens when someone is wrongfully banned? If a player is banned in Fortnite and is proven innocent, it’s worth more to Epic than just offering a platitude from customer service.

Instead, Epic is likely to grant anyone who is wrongfully banned an additional 2,000 V-Bucks, the in-game currency of Fortnite. At least that’s what a Reddit user claimed.

Is Epic really giving out free Bucks? The site Dot-eSports subsequently inquired with Epic and actually received confirmation: Yes, they would proceed this way for wrongfully issued bans but would not provide further details about the process.

fortnite-v-bucks

What are 2,000 V-Bucks worth? While this amount is not a fortune, it is still worth about 20 euros. Coincidentally, that is exactly the value of a legendary skin from the shop, the most expensive items in the game.

You can therefore sweeten your frustration over the ban with a nice new outfit. By the way, you can find a list of all available skins here afterwards. So if you are currently dealing with a ban and are truly innocent, you might already consider what you will buy with it.

However, some players insist they’ve been wrongfully banned. But they are still waiting for the letter from Epic with 2000 V-Bucks and the good news “You are free from Fortnite jail.”

The creators of Pokémon GO show the 1st trailer for the ‘Harry Potter’ game

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 2 minutes

The Harry Potter game “Wizards Unite” from the developers of Pokémon GO, Niantic, now has a short video presentation.

Last year, Niantic announced that they are working on another mobile game. In addition to Ingress (and Ingress Prime) and the mega-success Pokémon GO, they are currently developing a game around Harry Potter. It is titled Harry Potter: Wizards Unite.

Since this announcement, there has been little news about the game. But now, in November 2018, the first trailer has been released.

What does the video show? Unfortunately, the fans do not see any gameplay in the video.

A woman is seen teleporting into a street to catch a Snitch. Before she disappears, she casts a spell that throws a poster onto a wall.

Wizards Unite Screenshot Trailer2

What does the poster say? It reads “The Wizarding World is at risk of exposure. We need your help”.

More info: The team also released a text with the new trailer.

Please resist the overwhelming urge to panic. Magical traces are appearing without warning everywhere in the Muggle world, and in the most chaotic manner possible. We fear it is only a matter of time before the most unsuspecting Muggles become suspicious.

We therefore call on all witches and wizards to assist in containing the disaster, or the worst times since You-Know-Who and you-know-when will lie ahead.

Refresh your memory with the most important spells, ready your wand, and promptly join our intervention team.

Witches and wizards wanted: It continues that the Ministry is looking for witches and wizards willing to protect the world from a disaster. Players will then become members of an intervention team to maintain the secrecy status. This is a new unit formed between the Ministry of Magic and the international wizarding association.

They are able to “sniff out the faintest whiff of a magical disturbance from a mile away (like the Cornish Pixies) and skillfully and professionally cast advanced multi-spells.”.

What is known about Harry Potter: Wizards Unite?

Just like with Pokémon GO, the developers also use augmented reality technology for Harry Potter: Wizards Unite. So, simulated reality.

In Pokémon GO, you use your smartphone to see Pokémon in the “real world” with its camera. Fans of Pokémon GO were skeptical of Harry Potter: Wizards Unite

AR+ Pokemon GO 3

What is Harry Potter: Wizards Unite about? In Wizards Unite, players are to unravel a mystery. They cast spells and encounter beasts and iconic characters from the franchise.

When will the game be released? The release for Harry Potter: Wizards Unite is planned for 2019. Originally, a release was planned for 2018.

Tarek Zehrer Tarek Zehrer Reading time 2 minutes

Fallout 76 has been released and players can explore the vast world of West Virginia. Those who purchased the Tricentennial Edition may now be looking for their DLC items. Here’s how you can get your items.

Today, on November 14, is the official release of Fallout 76. While some were able to play surprisingly one day early, most will likely start their journey through Appalachia today.

Those who secured the Tricentennial Edition in advance are likely now searching for their DLC items. We’ll reveal how you can get your items.

Fallout76_Tricentennial

You need to craft the DLC items yourself

Here’s how you can obtain the contents of the Tricentennial Edition: To see if you have unlocked the items, you need to check the Atomic Shop. There, you should see the items displayed.

However, not all will land directly in your inventory. You first need to craft them or unlock blueprints for them.

These items are included in the Tricentennial Edition: 

  • Tricentennial Power Armor Skins (T-51, T-45, T-60, and X-01)
  • Tricentennial Weapon Skins for the 10mm Pistol, the Hatchet, and the Laser Rifle
  • A Vault Boy Mascot Head
  • The patriotic Uncle Sam outfit
  • Vault Boy Greeting Emote
  • Tricentennial Workshop Poster
  • Tricentennial Memorial Photo Frame

In line with the skins, we have compiled 5 locations where you can find the coveted Power Armors.

Fallout 76 tricentennial hut

You can’t craft everything immediately: For some of the contents, you first need the regular blueprints.

Where can I craft the items? You will need an Armor and Weapons bench for the outfits and skins. You will find these shortly after leaving the Vault at the Overseer’s first camp.

The camp items are immediately available to you as soon as you have the corresponding blueprints. Set up your camp and simply build the appropriate furniture.

What is the Atomic Shop? In the Atomic Shop, you can buy atoms for real money. With these, you can acquire outfits, skins, and other cosmetic items. You can read here on Mein-MMO how much the prices are.

Additionally, your bonus items will be displayed here.

How Black Ops 4 Update 1.05 Eases the Black Market Grind

Sven Galitzki Sven Galitzki Reading time 2 minutes

On November 13, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 received update 1.05. It introduced a feature that now makes the tough grind for black market ranks a little easier – provided you are not a complete noob at the game.

In addition to numerous tweaks, fixes, and the popular Nuketown map (initially) for PS4, one specific feature of update 1.05 stood out. Especially those who toil hard for black market rank advancements should be pleased. Because Black Ops 4 has now simplified this tough grind a bit.

Black Ops 4 gives you a black market rank every day – if you win

The black market grind under criticism: The black market of Black Ops 4 has recently come under increasing fire. The criticism was mainly directed at the tedious rank advancements on the black market.

The progress is not tied to player performance, but depends on pure playtime. The effort required is enormous and, in the eyes of many fans, still disproportionately high even after a tweak.

cod black ops 4 black out tower

Moreover, the returned microtransactions are believed by fans to be pushed by the tedious grind. For recently, rank advancements on the black market can also be purchased with real money. Anyone who wants to have everything can easily spend $1,000, as shown by a YouTuber’s test.

This is how Treyarch makes the grind on the black market easier: The increasing criticism likely hasn’t gone unnoticed by the developers at Treyarch. With the latest Black Ops 4 update 1.05, the studio is apparently responding to the fans’ feedback.

In Black Ops 4, you can now receive an additional bonus rank daily with little effort on top of your normal progress on the black market. All you have to do is win a multiplayer match or earn a merit in the in-house battle royale mode Blackout.

If you are not extremely unlucky, this is a very easy way to secure additional ranks for black market progress. This allows players to advance more quickly in the respective black market streams and secure more cosmetic rewards.

blops4-crash

What is the black market? The black market represents a type of in-game shop, where the contents can be earned through increasing gameplay progress in multiplayer and in Blackout, but can now also be purchased with COD points, a real-money currency.

The streams are individual cosmetic content packages within the black market that revolve around a specific theme or motif. They are temporarily available and regularly provide Black Ops 4 with new content.

You can now play ARK: Extinction on PS4 and Xbox One

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

The last chapter of ARK: Survival Evolved has now also been released on consoles. ARK: Extinction has finally been released for PS4 and Xbox One.

Just a few days after the release of the latest expansion “ARK: Extinction” on PC, players of ARK: Survival Evolved can now embark on a new adventure on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The expansion “Extinction”, which is very different from the ARK you know, is now available in the respective store.

What is ARK: Extinction about? In what is likely (for now) the last chapter of ARK, players return to Earth after spending a long time only on the island Arks. Here, they can discover what exactly has happened to the Earth and encounter a lot of machines.
New dinosaurs, of course, also have to be included, which can be stored in pocket-sized Cryopods and released quickly.

Fans of the story will likely be particularly excited, as they will find out where the dinosaurs come from that have been fought or tamed for ages in ARK.

ARK Extinction Screenshot 1

Titans are the ultimate bosses: The biggest threat on Earth is probably not the spreading pest, but the Titans. You can encounter these gigantic machines and bring them down in challenging battles. If you want, you can even tame the massive robots. But don’t expect your neighbors to be happy when you bring the “cute little ones” for a visit.

ARK Extinction Artwork

How much does ARK: Extinction cost? In the respective store for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, ARK: Extinction costs €20.

By the way: ARK will soon conquer another console. ARK will also launch on Nintendo Switch starting November 30.

Do you think it’s good that ARK now offers more story and brings it to a worthy conclusion? Or should it have focused more on the sandbox game?

Pokémon GO: How IV Values and IV Calculator Work

Noah Struthoff Noah Struthoff Reading time 3 minutes

In the world of Pokémon GO, there is often talk of IV values. We will explain why these values are so important and how to calculate them.

Players among you who have been playing for months probably already know what IV values are. But new players often wonder what this all means and why IV values are so important.

We will explain to you what IVs are and show you how to calculate these values.

What are IVs?

What does IV mean? When talking about IV values, that is actually not correct. IV stands for Individual Values, meaning individual values. Therefore, one speaks of IV and not IV values.

Pokemon GO Wasserfestival

Every Pokémon has individual values. These consist of three different data points.

  • Attack value
  • Defense value
  • HP value

Each of these values can range from 0 to 15 for Pokémon. For example, a Pokémon can have an attack value of 8, a defense value of 10, and an HP value of 15.

IV is the combination: All three values together result in the IV. The closer all three values are to 15, the higher the IVs of the Pokémon. If all three values are at 15, then the Pokémon has 100% IV.

Pokemon GO

This is why IVs are important: IVs are important in battles. So level up a Pokémon with high IVs. Every Pokémon also has set attack, defense, and HP values. Their so-called base values. If a Pokémon has a base attack value of 200 points and additionally has an attack IV of 15, then it has a total of 215 attack points.

IVs can make a Pokémon stronger. The higher the IV, the stronger the Pokémon.

von Patrick Freese

What are IV calculators?

Before you even need to use an IV calculator, you can also roughly determine the IV of your Pokémon without such a feature.

Pokemon GO

Evaluation system in the game: Professor Willow and his evaluation system in the game help you basically determine the IV of a Pokémon. If you have caught a Pokémon, then go to the evaluation of the Pokémon. Your team leaders can evaluate your Pokémon and give you a rough insight into whether a Pokémon is strong or weak.

What can IV calculators do? If you have now made a preliminary selection of Pokémon that you want to evaluate more closely, you can use IV calculators. These calculators show you how much IV your Pokémon has. They also calculate the individual values of the Pokémon.

Mobile and desktop version: There are various IV calculators. On the one hand, there are websites where you can manually enter your values. These then calculate the exact IV for you. There are also apps that show you what IV your Pokémon have. These work with screenshots or as an overlay over the display.

Pokémon GO WasserFestival

Pay attention to your app: It is important that your IV calculator app cannot access your game data. This violates the guidelines of Pokémon GO and has already led to the banning of some players. With calculators that work with screenshots or overlay, you are better off.

Do you pay attention to the IVs of Pokémon?

Besides IV, Stardust is also important, with tricks you can gather it faster.

Caution in Fortnite: Players are falling to their deaths like lemmings

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time 3 minutes

In Fortnite: Battle Royale, the gliders can no longer be used multiple times. This has deadly consequences for all who had gotten used to it.

What was the deal with the gliders? Since the end of October, you could unpack your glider anytime in all game modes of Fortnite and safely glide to the ground if you fell somewhere.

This was especially well received by professionals, casual gamers found it rather annoying. Now Epic has removed the feature again.

Fortnite Screenshot 2018.10.25 – 12.23.02.41

How do the gliders work now? The gliders now have the same function as before the change with Patch 6.30: You use them to reach the ground safely at the beginning of the game. Additionally, you can use them again after using a rift or a launch pad. Otherwise, not.

Too much of a good thing

Player base divided: The new glider mechanic sparked controversial discussions for weeks. Some players loved it and enjoyed the new freedom and speed it brought to the game.

Other players hated the new gliders and felt that it completely disrupted the game mechanics of fall damage and the approaching storm circle. You no longer had to think much about escape and could happily run around the map and build huge fortresses without a escape point.

Fortnite Screenshot 2018.10.25 – 12.22.34.21

Why did Epic do this? These negative voices seem to have resonated with Epic as well, because in a statement, it was said that they were not transparent enough with the players and have now concluded to reset the gliders.

The innovation with the gliders seems to have disturbed the game balance too much.

Will the new glider be gone for good? In the modes “50vs50” and “Disco Domination“, the reusable gliders are supposed to remain.

Deadly consequences

Massive deaths due to falls: According to many statements in comments and on Reddit, the sudden change in the glider mechanic has led to an increase in deaths from falls in the game. Many players have internalized the new gameplay in recent weeks and were used to jumping fearlessly into the depths and opening the glider.

Storm and fall damage claim victims: As this is no longer possible, countless players smashed on the ground, thereby losing the chance for victory.

Others were ruthlessly caught off guard by the storm and burned in it because they spent too long looting and did not consider that they were not fast enough on foot to escape the storm.

It will take some time for everyone to get used to the new, old conditions and to plan sensible escape routes while building and looting again.

What do you think of Epic’s decision?

If you want to check out Drieghan, you just need to update Black Desert and log into the game.

What can we see in Drieghan?

Drieghan is a new area in the southern part of the world of Black Desert. It is characterized by a mountainous landscape, swamps, and sparse fauna. Special attention is given to the cursed tribe of Sherekhan. In several quests, you will learn more about the curse of this people.

Drieghan offers brand new awakening weapons and additionally lucrative farming spots where you can increase your wealth.

Garmoth challenges you: Garmoth is a large red dragon waiting for players in Drieghan. Brave players can challenge him and will be rewarded for defeating the dragon with

  • rare items
  • and possibly a horn from Garmoth

Particularly the horn stands out. It can be exchanged for a dragon egg.

Cute dragon pet for diligent players

Free pet for dragon collectors: You will receive the young blood-red dragon when you exchange Garmoth’s horn with the NPC Gerson for a dragon egg. Gerson is located near the trade supervisor Tikara in Duvencrune.

Getting the cute dragon pet is therefore quite simple in principle. However, luck needs to be on your side, as Garmoth does not always drop his horn.

The young dragon is the first pet of the “special” type and can be obtained for free. It comes in six different versions.

Can I obtain the dragon in other ways? The young dragon can be registered in the marketplace and can also be purchased there.

Players have long been waiting for Drieghan

Reheated content: The area Drieghan has been playable in South Korea for over half a year. Accordingly, players in the West have been waiting a long time for a release of the area. In the forums and on Reddit, some players have been feeling frustrated about the long wait in recent months.

Other players praise the story of the new area and are looking forward to experiencing adventures in Drieghan.

Here is how to find Reznov, Mason, Woods, and Menendez in Black Ops 4

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time 3 minutes

In Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 you need to find four characters from previous series installments for the Icons Challenge: Reznov, Mason, Woods, and Menendez. However, this is not easy at all. You can find out how to do it here.

What is the Icons Challenge? In the Blackout mode, you need to find four characters from previous Black Ops games for the Icons Challenge. You will find them by completing sometimes absurd tasks in the game. We will explain what you need to do exactly to get these Specialist skins in Blackout in the following paragraphs.

How to find Reznov

To get the grim Russian Reznov, you need to find his famous hat.

reznov

The requirement for the Specialist: Search at the wells of Estates, Asylum, and the red statue at Raid for a Ushanka hat and keep it in your inventory.

blops4-ushanka
This is what the cap looks like.

The challenges for Reznov: Once you have the cap, you need to kill an enemy at “Extreme Range.” This means any distance of 200 meters or more. Once you have the kill, you need to survive long enough to finish in at least the Top 5 for Solos, Top 3 for Duos, and Top 2 for Quad teams.

How to get Mason

To get the CIA agent Mason, you first need to unlock Reznov and also play in the challenge.

Call of duty black ops 4 specialists 1

The requirement for the Specialist: First, as Reznov, find a “dirty white T-shirt” from a supply drop.

The challenges for Mason: Once you have the shirt, you need to “wake the sleeper agent.” To do this, go to the location “Array” and activate the “Emergency Broadcast” button in the transmission tower. Then, you just need to finish among the Top 3 in Solo, Top 2 in Duo, and as a winner in Quad to get Mason.

How to get Raul Menendez

For this notorious villain, you need brutal melee skills.

blops4-mendenez

The requirement for the Specialist: First, find a necklace with a pendant in a supply drop.

The challenges for Menendez: After that, you need to complete the following tasks in the same match with the pendant in your inventory:

  • Kill an enemy with a shotgun
  • Kill an enemy in melee

Ideally, you should get the perk “Brawler” for the last task, as it will increase your melee damage.

How to obtain Frank Woods

Sergeant Frank Woods has a particularly fast-paced and tricky challenge.

blops4-woods

The requirement for the Specialist: First, find Woods’ bandana. You can find it at the helicopter spawn point north of the shooting range on the Blackout map.

blops4-bandana
This is where you can find the bandana.

The challenges for Frank Woods: With the bandana in your inventory, you then need to fly around in a helicopter for about a minute. After that, you need to win the game, and the Specialist skin is yours!

FIFA 19 Team of the Week 9 known: This is the TOTW 9 in FUT

Max Handwerk Max Handwerk Reading time 4 minutes

The TOTW 9 (Team of the Week 9) for FUT in FIFA 19 is known. All players in the Team of the Week with Inform cards in overview.

The TOTW time in FUT 19: When will the Team of the Week be released? The TDW 9 will be announced on Wednesday, November 14, 2018, at 4 PM. As every week, you can draw the special cards of the TDW players from packs starting at 7 PM.

FIFA 19 TOTW 9

This is the Team of the Week: The “Team of the Week” consists of players who excelled in real football in the past week. For example, through goals, particularly good performances in important victories, or similar. These players are rewarded with special cards that come with an improved rating.

These special cards are more valuable than the normal cards of the players. But if you already have one of the TDW players in your team, you can earn some coins with the standard card through smart TOTW trading.

TOTW 9 – The Team of the Week in overview

Starting XI:

FIFA 19 TOTW 9 Starting XI
  • GK: Szcesny – Juventus (ITA1) – Poland
  • CB: Rami – Marseille (FRA1) – France
  • LB: Robertson – Liverpool (ENG1) – Scotland
  • CB: Hector – 1. FC Köln (GER2) – Germany
  • CM: David Silva – Manchester City (ENG1) – Spain
  • CAM: Marco Reus – Dortmund (GER1) – Germany
  • CM: Partey – Atletico Madrid (ESP1) – Ghana
  • LM: El Shaarawy – AS Roma (ITA1) – Italy
  • LF: Pléa – Gladbach (GER1) – France
  • ST: Cavani – PSG (FRA1) – Uruguay
  • ST: Depay – Olympique Lyon (FRA1) – Netherlands

Substitutes:

FIFA 19 TOTW 9 Bench
  • GK: Sels – Strasbourg (FRA1) – Belgium
  • RB: Almeida – Benfica (POR1) – Portugal
  • LB: Firpo – Real Betis (ESP1) – Spain
  • CAM: Beek  – Ajax (NED1) – Netherlands
  • CM: Kums – Anderlecht (BEL1) – Belgium
  • ST: Gignac – Tigres (MEX1) – France
  • ST: Rondón – Newcastle (ENG1) – Venezuela
  • CB: Jansson – AIK (SWE1) – Sweden
  • RM: Aleksic – Malatyaspor (TUR1) – Serbia
  • ST: Morelo –  Santa Fe (KOL1) – Colombia
  • RF: Mabil – FC Midtyilland (DEN1) – Australia
  • ST: Finotto – Citadella (ITA2) – Italy

Here are the 3 best Ultimate Team players of Week 9

  • Top Player 1: Edinson Cavani. The forward from Paris Saint-Germain is one of the best target strikers in the game, strong in headers and finishing. With his Inform card, Cavani breaks the magical barrier of 90.
  • This is why the Cavani card will be interesting for you: If you have a Ligue 1 team, you should secure Cavani – there is no better striker in the French top league. If you should have national teammate Luis Suarez in your team, you can form one of the most dangerous strike duos in the world in Inform version – if you have the necessary coins.
TOTW 9 Cavani
  • Top Player 2: David Silva. David Silva plays for Manchester City, which recently defeated city rival Manchester United. Silva played a significant role in the buildup.
  • This is why the Silva card will be interesting for you: David Silva is a great playmaker who knows how to assert himself on the field with trickery and accuracy. He is well placed in a Premier League team, and there are plenty of combinations possible with Spanish players. The only downside: Silva is modest in pace.
TOTW 9 Silva
  • Top Player 3: Marco Reus. The attacker from Borussia Dortmund recently led BVB to a 3:2 victory in the top match against FC Bayern, securing the Inform card and the absolute highlight position from a German perspective in TDW 9.
  • This is why the Reus card will be interesting for you: Some of you may already have Reus in the POTM variant. In this case, you do not need to go for this one. For all others, who want one of the best Bundesliga players ever in their team, this card could be an option – and the standard card is likely to become cheaper soon.
TOTW 9 Reus

TOTW Highlights from a German perspective

These Bundesliga players are with Marco Reus:

  • Alassane Pléa: The forward from Borussia Mönchengladbach is currently scoring at will. With him, you gain a powerful striker for your team who should be quite affordable.
  • Jonas Hector: The national player plays in the 2. Bundesliga but attracted attention during the 8:1 victory over Dynamo Dresden, contributing two goals and assisting one.

The best packs in the game increase the chances of drawing one of the popular TOTW players. In the new Title Update 3, which has been available on consoles since yesterday, new faces are included – also from the current Team of the Week? The “Road to the Final” cards are also still available in sets – or via SBC:

Private Server in Fallout 76 – All information on renting and release

Benedict Grothaus Benedict Grothaus Reading time 3 minutes

As a multiplayer game, Fallout 76 operates on various servers where players can play with others. An option to rent private servers is planned, but you will have to wait.

Private servers are coming: The Game Director of Fallout 76, Todd Howard, confirmed in a Q&A at Quakecon 2018 that Fallout 76 will receive private servers. It will definitely happen, just not right now.

fallout 76 screen drölf

Fallout 76 “Rent Server” Feature Coming Later

When can I rent a server? Fallout fans will have to wait until the end of 2019 before they can rent private servers for Fallout 76. However, a specific date has not yet been mentioned by Bethesda.

Private servers are servers that run separately from the official servers. They are managed by the renters, who are usually players themselves, and can be password protected or have special rules and settings.

Fallout 76 Thumbs Up Gameplay

How do I rent a private server? Currently, there is no information on what private servers for Fallout 76 will look like. However, if Bethesda follows the model of other survival games, renting will be quite simple.

You will likely not rent private servers directly from Bethesda, but from providers like Nitrado or G-Portal. The providers offer servers at various prices that you can then set up and manage on your own. Once we know more, we will provide you with the information at MeinMMO.

fallout 76 wp

Why rent private servers? When Fallout 76 was announced, the question of private servers quickly arose. Since the early release of Fallout 76 on November 13, more and more players have been asking about it. Three reasons drive this:

  • Mods: Players want to modify Fallout 76 similarly to the predecessors. This is only possible on private servers.
  • Playing with friends: Especially streamers want “community servers” where they can play with “their people” without being disturbed.
  • Solo play: In Fallout 76, there is constant PvP; that cannot be turned off. Some fans prefer to play Fallout 76 alone on private servers for this reason.

Currently, many fans say this keeps some people from playing. They want a Fallout experience according to their vision and do not want to share their world with other players who might disturb them, even if Bethesda is strict against troublemakers.

Playing Solo Even Without Private Servers

Since Fallout has become known as a single-player series, many fans prefer to experience Fallout 76 alone as well. By default, there is no solo mode for Fallout 76 and none is planned.

However, you can also play Fallout 76 well solo online. All players on your current server are continuously visible on the map, allowing you to avoid them if they disturb you.

fallout 76 screen 17 titel

Players who impose PvP on others will also face harsh penalties. However, as long as you do not participate in PvP activities yourself, you will receive much less damage from players anyway. A story tells a narrative in Fallout 76 even without human NPCs. So there is nothing standing in the way of a solo adventure.

If you want to give the game a chance with friends, you can quickly find players in our Fallout group. Also, visit us on Facebook for more news and information about Fallout 76.

Playing in a group is very rewarding. Those who play in a group in Fallout 76 level up faster.

How to Avoid a Bounty in Red Dead Redemption 2

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 3 minutes

Anyone who commits crimes in Red Dead Redemption 2 will have a bounty placed on them. However, in most cases, this can be prevented.

Because every good cowboy can simply have a bad day, one can commit crimes in Red Dead Redemption 2. You might rob a bank or just punch the loudmouth man across the street. However, if you’re careless, you’ll soon find yourself the target of law enforcement and face a bounty.

Red Dead Redemption John Marston 2

We will tell you how to avoid these difficulties.

Avoiding Witnesses

In Red Dead Redemption 2, the old rule applies: Where there is no plaintiff, there is no judge. If there are no witnesses to your act, then no one will pursue you and try to arrest you. However, if there are witnesses, they are categorized into different tiers – depending on their level of knowledge. You can quickly identify what type of eyewitness you are dealing with by looking for the eye symbol on the minimap.

White Eye: The witness only knows that something happened, but has no specific details. As long as Arthur flees quickly, no one can find out his identity, and there will be no bounty.

Red Dead Redemption 2 robbery NPC

Dark Red Eye: The witness has seen more but cannot fully identify Arthur. This is only possible if Arthur has not committed a crime while wearing the same clothes in the same area. If he is wearing the same outfit as in a previous crime and does not wear a bandana, the witnesses will be able to identify him.

Bright Red Eye: The witnesses have seen everything and know exactly who committed the crime. These witnesses must be stopped before they can inform the police. This can be done through intimidation and threats or through brute force.

Keep in mind that brute force can also be seen by others, which can trigger an ugly cycle. Then it might be better to just accept the bounty before you dig yourself deeper into trouble.

Outsmarting Law Enforcement

Law enforcement can’t be easily outsmarted in Red Dead Redemption 2. They recognize Arthur even if he is wearing a mask, which inevitably leads to a bounty.

red dead redemption survey header

As long as they can see you, they will pursue Arthur. Only when you can break their line of sight will you lose the “red radius” on the minimap that was previously centered on you. If you manage to completely escape this area (and not run into the guards again), they will stop the pursuit.

By the way, people also remember Arthur’s crimes and appearance. If you had a bounty in an area and return to that area in the same clothes to commit another offense, people will recognize Arthur immediately.

It’s worthwhile to always have one or two sets of clothes on hand to commit crimes and then be able to move innocently in an area.

If you have a bounty on you, don’t despair. This is how easily you can get rid of the bounty in Red Dead Redemption 2.

Do you enjoy being a “bad guy” in Red Dead Redemption 2? Or do you always stay law-abiding and have never had a bounty on you?

By the way, it’s honorable if you eliminate the folks from the Ku Klux Klan.

3 Gamer aus LoL und Fortnite sind auf Weltrangliste „30 unter 30“ 2019

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 3 minutes

The magazine Forbes annually awards the “30 under 30”. These are 30 people under the age of 30 from around the world that you should keep an eye on. For 2019, two stars from Fortnite and one from League of Legends are included. Ninja, Ali-A, and Doublelift are among the 30 biggest stars under 30 in the world.

The magazine Forbes is known for its lists. These lists are a kind of unofficial world ranking for specific things. They are “high score” lists for real life.

For these lists, Forbes is famous:

  • Forbes has a list of the richest people in the world – with Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos at the top
  • a list showcases the most powerful people on Earth – with China’s head of state Xi Jinping at 1, Putin at 2, and Trump at 3. The US president surely thinks this is fake news.
  • there is a separate list for the most powerful women, where Angela Merkel ranks number one
  • a list for the highest-paid entertainers: boxing star Floyd Mayweather before George Clooney
  • and there is the list of the “30 under 30.”

Content Creator: Ali-A

World Ranking of Humanity

What is the “30 under 30”: The “30 under 30” list honors 30 individuals each year who are under 30 years old. There are 20 lists for different sectors.

The largest list is “Celebrities”, the stars. This list is somewhat of a “world ranking of young celebrities”. In 2019, three gamers under 30 can be found on this list.

Double-Lift-LoL
LoL star Doublelift was honored with a dedicated video by Riot Games.

These 3 gamers made it onto the “30 under 30” in 2019:

Tyler “Ninja” Blevins, 27: His profile states that Ninja is the player with the most followers on Twitch with 12 million.

In 2018, Blevins broke the record for viewers on a single stream with 600,000. That was the stream with rap star Drake in March 2018.

Additionally, Ninja won the first Fortnite tournament hosted by Epic. Ninja has also earned a sponsorship deal with Red Bull.

Recently, Doublelift was also honored by Riot with a video as a League of Legends star.

Destiny 2: “Strength of Memory” – Here’s how the clan challenge works

Sven Galitzki Sven Galitzki Reading time 3 minutes

This week, Hawthorne has a new raid challenge for clans. We explain how to master the challenge “Strength of Remembrance” in Destiny 2.

If you are a member of a clan, you have an additional opportunity to earn powerful gear in Forsaken. Hawthorne offers special weekly bounties for clans. These challenges require you to achieve specific feats in the Forsaken raid “Last Wish”.

Strength of Remembrance – How to Master the New Clan Challenge

This is included in the current clan bounty: Clans can take on a new raid challenge this week – “Strength of Remembrance”.

If you want to crack this challenge, you need to successfully complete the namesake weekly bounty that Hawthorne has prepared for clan members this week. The challenge takes place in the new raid “Last Wish”.

Destiny 2 forsaken raid entrance

If you want to unlock the raid seal and claim the title “Riven’s Bane” for yourself, there is no way around this challenge.

These are the requirements you must fulfill for the bounty:

  • You must be a member of a clan. This specific bounty cannot be completed otherwise.
  • Your clan must be at least level 4. Otherwise, you will not be able to accept the bounty.

This is how the new challenge “Strength of Remembrance” works: First, you should obtain the corresponding bounty. You will receive it from Hawthorne in the Tower. Once that’s done, it’s time for you to enter the Last Wish raid.

D2 strength of remembrance
The bounty “Strength of Remembrance” is available from Hawthorne in the Tower

There, you first need to fight your way through to the final boss Riven. The path there and the basic mechanics for all boss encounters, especially the complicated fight against Riven, are explained in our raid guide for Last Wish.

If you are only focused on the challenge and want to save yourself the path to Riven, you can shortcut at the Wall of Wishes by entering the code for the 7th wish.

Once you reach the raid boss, the mechanics of the challenge are quickly explained. During the fight, the players on the upper floor will need to shoot 6 eyes of Riven.

The additional challenge now is that during this phase, each of the 6 team members may only shoot one eye of the Ahamkara – so one eye per player. If even one Guardian shoots multiple eyes or if someone misses an eye, the challenge fails.

riven

This makes the already probably most complex fight in Destiny’s history even a bit harder. Perfect communication and coordination of the entire raid team are crucial here.

This is how you can shortcut: In addition to the regular tactic, this challenge can also be mastered relatively easily. This requires a special tactic during the boss fight against Riven, which we will not go into here, as it essentially involves a cheese.

However, anyone who defeats Riven using the currently popular cluster bomb method will also successfully complete the challenge at the same time. The “eye problem” is completely eliminated.

By the way: The cluster bomb tactic can also be executed perfectly with the new heavy machine gun Thunderlord. 6 Thunderlords melt the final boss in seconds.

You can see how the challenge unfolds in this video from Nexxoss Gaming:
