Heroes of the Storm: XP Boosters now also reward your teammates

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 3 minutes

The latest patch of Heroes of the Storm is live. Those using an XP booster are now also doing something good for their teammates.

Since last night (13.11.2018), a new patch is active in Heroes of the Storm. The update not only brought the new heroine Orphea, but also a change to the XP boosters. They now support not only the consumer but also all their teammates.

What are boosters? XP boosters, previously known as Stimpacks, can be used in Heroes of the Storm to earn additional XP and gold. This helps players reach new levels faster, unlock more rewards (such as loot boxes), and buy new characters more quickly. Boosters can be purchased with real money, but they are sometimes also included in loot chests.

XP-Boost for teammates: A change to the boosters makes the whole thing more social. The XP boost now works not only for the buyer but also for all teammates in a match (that is, all 4 allies and all 5 opponents). They each receive a bonus of 5% on their earned experience points.

Here are a few examples:

  • If only the player has the XP booster, their own bonus remains at 100%. All other players receive 5% bonus XP.
  • If the player and two other players have the booster, their own bonus is 110% for all with an active booster and 15% for all who do not have a booster.
  • If all 10 players have an active booster, each player receives 145% additional XP (that is, 45% as extra bonus).

This bonus adds to the regular XP bonus. So instead of 100% additional XP, a maximum of 145% is possible with the booster.

Additional XP bonuses: In addition to the booster, players can further increase their XP, as Heroes of the Storm encourages playing with friends. Playing in a group with a friend earns 25% additional XP. If the player joins a group of 5 players total, they can earn another 50% bonus XP.

Playing in certain leagues is also rewarded. A match in the Hero League offers 25% additional XP and a match in the Team League offers 50% XP.

Combining all possible effects can generate a bonus of 270% bonus XP – nearly four times the normal value. This practically rains loot chests.

Are you using the XP boosters in Heroes of the Storm? Do you think it’s good that they now have a “social” component? Or should teammates not benefit from your own boost?

By the way, the patch also introduced the heroine Orphea. She is the first “original” character born in the Nexus. And of course, Orphea is a young girl with tentacle monster.

These new skins will be available soon in Fortnite – 5 outfits with wizards and punks

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time 3 minutes

In Patch 6.30 for Fortnite: Battle Royale, there are files for the new shop skins. After Halloween, colorful new outfits and items will come.

The next skins for the shop are known: Halloween is officially over, because the new skins from Update 6.30 are colorful and vibrant. They feature chaotic punks, colorful wizards, and sushi masters.

In addition, there are also some equally wacky gliders and tools.

Beware, datamining: However, the information comes from datamining and may change.

You will see these skins soon in the shop

The outfits: This time there are five new costumes for your characters in Fortnite:

  • Riot: A grim punk who oddly does not seem to have a female counterpart.
  • Taro: An unusual skin that portrays a colorful, masked figure.
  • Castor: A sinister-looking wizard.
  • Maki Master: The female version of the sushi cook skin that existed some time ago.
  • Elmira: A sorceress and the female counterpart to Castor.

These are the back blings: The new skins again come with a lot of crazy back accessories. Among them is a maki sushi and backpacks for the wizards. Taro, on the other hand, has a grim mask as a backpack.

This is the new glider: The gliders are particularly wacky this time. There is a flying fish, magical wings, a generic yellow glider, and a bizarre flying chicken.

Is this a hint at a third faction in the battle of fast-food chains? Is another chicken restaurant coming?

These are the new pickaxes: The two wizards get a magic wand and Taro gets a kind of archway. However, there is also a whisk and a double pizza cutter axe!

These are the new emotes: Five new emotes are known. Among them is a time-out, two dances, and an emote that makes unicorn llamas dance!

First reactions and user reviews of the launch of Fallout 76

Andreas Bertits Andreas Bertits Reading time 3 minutes

The launch of the online game Fallout 76 occurred a bit prematurely, which is why players have been discussing Bethesda’s new game for a while now. We summarize the first reactions from players. Notably, there are some really bad user reviews on Metacritic.

Why is Fallout 76 struggling? Right after the game’s announcement, criticism began to pour in.

  • Fans of the Fallout series preferred a single-player Fallout 5
  • Players were concerned about the PvP
  • There were fears that the story would be neglected
  • Time and again, Bethesda tried to explain to fans that this is a “real” Fallout

Boss monsters also have stronger and unique weapons.

Launch with mixed opinions

What is the mood now after the launch? Yesterday, on November 13, the servers surprisingly went online, although the release was supposed to be today, November 14. But now much is already being discussed in the official forum of Fallout 76. Additionally, there are already some user reviews on Metacritic.

Fallout 76 is reportedly dividing the community. Many are still airing their frustrations about the direction of the game.

These are the complaints about Fallout 76:

  • Fallout 76 is plagued by some bugs and balancing issues
  • The world is criticized for feeling empty due to the lack of NPCs
  • Some players are annoyed when others repeatedly try to prompt them for PvP through repeated attacks

8 arguments that Fallout 76 wants to convince its doubters

These are the main advantages of Fallout 76:

  • Exploring the huge game world creates the typical Fallout atmosphere
  • It’s fun to search for resources and fight enemies with friends, and build bases
  • The fights play fluidly
  • Crafting is enjoyable because it’s quick and easy
  • There’s a lot to do, and even alone, you can keep busy

A divided community

This is what some fans are saying about the game: Many Fallout fans have spoken out by now. Some report positives, while others criticize. Therefore, heated discussions are taking place in the official forum.

Here are some positive voices:

  • illusiveenergy states in the official forum: “I have been playing all day since the servers opened. I can’t say there’s much in the game that I dislike.”
  • Oldbolt_Theck explains: “I’ve only been playing for a few hours. But I like it. It feels like Fallout. I don’t mind that there are no NPCs, because you get the missions from robots and through radio transmissions.”

However, some voices in the forum are negative:

  • twothe states: “I had high hopes for the game, but after the beta and now post-launch, I feel bored already. The main problem is that it feels unfinished and poorly balanced. Many activities are pointless.”
  • LostEskimoBro expresses disappointment: “I understand that you need to introduce new things, but if you claim that there is solo play, then it must be there. After less than an hour, I just want my money back…”

Extremely bad user reviews on Metacritic

The user reviews on Metacritic currently paint a grim picture. The ratings are at

  • Xbox One at 1.4 with 91 reviews
  • PlayStation 4 at 1.7 with 209 reviews
  • PC at 2.0 with 211 ratings

Individual voices say:

  • sleazy898 states: “Terrible. Full of bugs, as expected from Bethesda. FPS-lock, no field of view adjustment, fetch quests, lags, and boring. Ridiculous!”
  • SKK50 writes: “Not a Fallout RPG, but very fun in PvE when exploring a Fallout world with friends. Great landscapes, a lot to do, and offers some elements from Fallout 4.”

Torchlight Frontiers: No Pay2Win, as there is nothing to win

Andreas Bertits Andreas Bertits Reading time 2 minutes

Max Schaefer from the development studio Echtra Games recently spoke a bit about the monetization model of the upcoming MMO Torchlight Frontiers. They promise to refrain from Pay2Win mechanics, meaning an aggressive cash shop.

Schaefer rules out Pay2Win because there is nothing to win in Torchlight Frontiers. Additionally, the development studio speaks out against gambling methods and monetization types that can be exploited in a deceptive manner.

Free2Play without Pay2Win

torchlight-frontiers-lama

What payment model does Torchlight Frontiers offer? Echtra Games wants to bring the hack-and-slash MMO to market as a Free2Play game. However, Echtra Games CEO Max Schaefer assures that there will be no Pay2Win elements.

  • The payment model of Torchlight Frontiers still needs to develop
  • Not every game can, according to Max Schaefer, successfully utilize the same Free2Play model
  • There should be no gambling elements
  • Players should always feel like they have the chance to earn something in the game, such as special loot
  • There might be special items like relic weapons in the shop that can also be earned through gameplay
  • The shop will mainly consist of cosmetic items and decor for housing
  • The contents of the shop will be adjusted based on player feedback during live operations
  • There are no premium areas that only paying customers can access
More on the topic
These 3 features make Torchlight: Frontiers different from Diablo 3
von Jürgen Horn

They want to learn from other Free2Play games: Echtra Games is aware that there are many Free2Play games with unfair payment models. Therefore, the team closely monitors the market. They observe what works, what doesn’t, and what resonates particularly well with players. All this will be considered in implementing their own monetization model.

Reserved joy among fans

This is what fans think: Many players find the ideas good but remain somewhat skeptical. They want to first see how the system works in the game and whether there are still one or two Pay2Win elements present.

What status is the MMO currently in? The “Diablo MMO” Torchlight Frontiers will start an alpha stress test on November 16, for which invitations are currently being sent out. The release is planned for 2019 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.

Destiny 2: So geht der Gesucht-Beutezug Auge in der Dunkelheit

Sven Galitzki Sven Galitzki Reading time 4 minutes

This week, Spider offers the guardians in Destiny 2 a new big wanted bounty. The goal is to track down and eliminate the Eye of the Darkness. As a reward, you will receive powerful equipment.

What is the Eye of the Darkness? It is the final boss of the new weekly bounty “Wanted: Eye of the Darkness”. This Hive Screamer has escaped from the Prison of Elders, and it is now up to you to hunt it down and take it out. You can find the bounty at Spider – the vendor in the Tanglevine of the Reef.

This bounty takes you to Mars

What reward do you get? If you master this big bounty, you will receive powerful equipment. This is random loot that drops items beyond the soft cap of Power Level 500.

Eye of the Darkness – Location and Mechanics

This is how you find and defeat the Eye of the Darkness:

Step 1: You can get the corresponding bounty for five Ghost Fragments at Spider in the Tanglevine. So first, acquire this bounty.

To accept the bounty, you need to have a Power Level of at least 500. A level of 540 is recommended. If you go with friends and tackle the bounty as a fireteam, it can be completed at a lower level. Note that you have seven days after purchasing to complete the bounty before it expires.

You can obtain Ghost Fragments from, among other things, public events in the Tanglevine.

Step 2: Now head to the area of the Miasma on Mars and look for the adventure “Wanted: Eye of the Darkness”. Note that this adventure can also spawn in the Braytech Futurescape area. However, all the important mechanics remain the same.

If you don’t find the adventure in the Lost Sector in the Miasma, check the other adventure symbols until you find the Eye of the Darkness. Since the target is in a Lost Sector, you should also check the locations and entrances of the two possible Lost Sectors on Mars:

Step 3: Once you have discovered the correct adventure, accept it and then enter the corresponding Lost Sector – in our case, Ma’Adim Subterranean (may vary). There, you will encounter powerful Hive enemies and possibly Cabal foes as well. So proceed cautiously and carefully. You are not under time pressure.

This is the Eye of the Darkness (Source: G-Zockt on YouTube)

Fight your way through the Lost Sector to the boss room. The path is self-explanatory. When you reach the last large room, you will notice the initially closed Screamer, which is still invulnerable.

This is how you defeat the final boss Eye of the Darkness

Step 4: Under the Screamer sits a group of Thralls. Eliminate them, and the boss fight begins. The Screamer remains invulnerable at first. However, numerous Hive enemies will spawn and make your life difficult.

d2 auge in der dunkelheit wurmverflucht
You must eliminate these Worm-Touched (Source: G-Zockt on YouTube)

To inflict damage on the boss, you need to kill the Worm-Touched. They are exploding Thralls with a health bar. When you kill one, it explodes and leaves behind a puddle of green slime.

If you stand in this slime long enough, you will receive the 20-second buff “Worm’s Trail,” which is indicated by a display on the left side of the screen and a greenish aura. This will open the Screamer and it will begin attacking you.

d2 auge in der dunkelheit schleim
In this sludge puddle, you get the necessary buff (Source: G-Zockt on YouTube)

At the same time, you will also be able to wound the Screamer – until the buff expires. After that, the Screamer will close again and the game starts over. Follow these steps until the boss is defeated. Finally, you only need to redeem the completed bounty in your inventory. Then there’s a powerful reward.

Tips for the boss fight:

  • Since you must stand in the slime to receive the buff, kill the Worm-Touched so that they die in a spot not visible to the boss. This gives you cover and you are not completely exposed to enemy fire. Note that the boss can change its position multiple times during the fight.
  • Use a powerful power weapon like the Whisper of the Worm, the Sleeper Simulant, the Thunderlord, or the Thousand Voices. This will bring the boss down much faster than if you were to only use primary and secondary weapons.

Fallout 76: How to pack up and take your camp with you

Tarek Zehrer Tarek Zehrer Reading time 3 minutes

In Fallout 76, you have access to the mobile C.A.M.P. that you can take anywhere. But how do you pack it up and place it somewhere else? You can find out in this guide.

Building is a part of Fallout 76: The building system is one of the features of Fallout 76. Players can create their own camp anywhere in the game world. For this, you receive the C.A.M.P. tool at the beginning.

With this tool, you just need to choose a suitable spot and you can get started. But what if you set up a camp and later find a better place? Here’s how you move your camp to another location.

In the Pip-Boy menu, you can select the option “Move C.A.M.P.” in the bottom left.

Packing up the camp costs you Caps

This is how you relocate your camp: Your camp cannot be packed up directly. But that’s not a problem. Even if you have already set up a camp somewhere, you can always establish a new one.

However, each time you do this, it will cost you Caps.

This is what happens to your old camp: Your items are moved from the old camp to the new camp. Your already built items are saved as blueprints. So you can set everything up as it was.

Fallout 76_20181114095223
All items that you have already crafted are available to you again.

Can I set up my camp anywhere? Not quite. The game world of Fallout 76 is vast and offers plenty of space. However, you cannot set up a camp in the middle of any city or mine.

You must limit yourself to the “empty” spots between the markers on the map. If you still want to set up a camp in towns and at interesting locations, you must conquer one of the fixed workshops.

You can recognize them by the large red workbench. You then have to occupy this workbench first. Other players can also try to conquer this workshop.

fallout-76-brotherhood-of-steel

How do I conquer the workshops? First, you need to stand at the base workbench. For a fee in the form of Caps, you can start the conquest. During this time, you need to hold the workshop for a specific time window.

During this time, the actual owners have the opportunity to fend off your attacks. If no one is present, the time window expires, and the workshop goes into your possession without a fight. For such PvP battles, there are apparently also some perk cards that PvP fans will love.

If the workshop has no owner, you can simply go to the workbench and start the conquest process. In that case, you don’t have to pay any Caps.

Have you already set up your camp?

Fortnite: Update 6.30 brings Food Battle, Patch Notes in English

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time 3 minutes

For Fortnite: Battle Royale, the new update 6.30 is here. It brings a lot of new features, including the removal of the deployable gliders, new mechanics in PvE, and a brand new game mode centered around the war between burgers and pizza in Fortnite.

With Update 6.30, Epic has once again released a big update. The new patch is packed with new features and some serious overhauls. This time it also applies to the PvE, which will receive a complete makeover with the patch.

In Battle Royale, however, the great food battle has erupted. It’s a fight: burgers vs. pizza.

The Features from Patch 6.3 for Fortnite Battle Royale

New Mode: Food Battle: As already suspected by MeinMMO, there is a new mode about the eternal fight between burgers and pizza. In this limited-time game mode, you will either fight in Team Burger or Team Pizza.

Your goal is to destroy the opponent’s fortress with the mascot. However, you have some time to prepare before the action starts. Until then, the two teams are separated by a barrier.

Additionally, there will be respawns. However, explosive weapons will not be available. You will find plenty of weapons and other materials in numerous red supply drops. Moreover, you will harvest twice the amount of resources.

New Item, Turrets: The new turret is now a permanent feature in the game. It is a legendary trap that you must mount. However, to use it, you must enter the turret and can then fire indefinitely until the turret overheats. The turret itself can be destroyed, and anyone who climbs it can use it. By the way, the turret’s base is indestructible.

A few more minor updates will also be added:

  • The pickaxe now deals double damage, 20 instead of 10. You can now kill an opponent with 5 hits!
  • Quad–crashers will now spawn at their designated locations.
  • Gliders are no longer recyclable, unless you use rifts or launch pads.
  • There is a new tournament called “Loot Pop-Up Cup.” In it, you gather resources 40 percent faster and have a cap of 500 materials each. Kills give you 50 health or shield back.
  • You can injure yourself in the starting area and see damage numbers. However, you cannot fall below 1 health. Damage does not count for challenges.
  • You can now crawl on the ground for 60 seconds instead of 50 before you die.

The Features from Patch 6.3 of Fortnite: Save the World 

A lot has changed in the PvE mode Save the World. The entire user interface has been redesigned. Additionally, the skill trees have been replaced by a new upgrade page.

  • All previously earned skill points have been removed, and you will receive upgrade points instead. The amount of upgrade points you receive depends on your current account level.
  • The same goes for research, which you can use to upgrade your heroes.
  • A new revolver called “The Last Word” has been added to the game. It deals particularly high headshot damage.
  • There is a new heroine, the Flight Pioneer.

Wonderful technology SpatialOS is supposed to save the sci-fi MMO Project Genom

Andreas Bertits Andreas Bertits Reading time 2 minutes

The science-fiction MMORPG Project Genom launched with a lot of potential in 2016 in early access – but it was way too early. Now the developers are trying to save the game with the technology SpatialOS.

A premature launch of an online game can lead to massive problems, as seen with Project Genom. Launched full of potential, it is now hardly played anymore.

Internal Problems

What happened? Project Genom sounded very interesting. A sci-fi MMORPG where you could improve your hero through gene manipulation and cyber implants and explore a vast world, even with vehicles. Adventures in space were also planned.

project genom fight

But then at the end of 2016, there was a dispute within the team, which even led to Project Genom having to be removed from Valve’s platform. Since then, the game has been a perpetual construction site. There is hardly any progress, and players are leaving. Currently, according to Steamcharts, there are only about 1.7 players active at the same time.

SpatialOS is supposed to fix it

This is how Project Genom is to be saved: The developers are now returning after months of silence. They are still working on optimizing, expanding, and improving the game. The technology SpatialOS is supposed to help with this.

  • The team now wants to develop a stable version of Project Genom with SpatialOS
  • It is supposed to be another redesign of the game
  • The sales will be paused for now
  • Server access will be limited
  • SpatialOS should allow the team to realize the vision even with a few employees
  • The team plans to compensate all customers as soon as a stable version is available

What is SpatialOS? SpatialOS is a technology from the company Improbable, which allows small development studios to create and manage vast online worlds and to constantly expand them. SpatialOS is used in the MMO Worlds Adrift.

project genom

Players remain skeptical

This is how players react: After the mixed development phase, players are understandably skeptical. There are voices that encourage the developers, but there are also critical players who are particularly angry due to the lack of communication over the past months.

  • For instance, Hammerschaedel says on Steam: “No releases, just talk. No wonder such things happen.”
  • Sckiz1, on the other hand, says: “As long as you compensate those who supported you, it’s okay. Keep working, life is a journey, not a race.”

Fortnite down: Servers offline – Update 6.3 brings Shield Turret

Robert Albrecht Robert Albrecht Reading time 3 minutes

Fortnite’s servers are going down for maintenance. The new update 6.30 brings a fresh item for Fortnite: Battle Royale. Therefore, the servers will go offline on all platforms (PC/Mac, Xbox One, PS4, Switch, iOS, Android). A patch needs to be downloaded.

First major release in weeks: While players had to settle for rather minor changes in the last few weeks (apart from the spectacular live event), Fortnite is expected to shower players with new features today.

Before you can enjoy the many changes in Save the World mode or the new turret in the Battle Royale part, you will have to endure maintenance work. When does the downtime start? When can you log back in? We have all the information for you!

Fortnite’s Servers Go Offline

When does the server downtime start? Epic has postponed the start time for the server to go down. Instead of 10 AM, the servers will go offline today at 11 AM German time.

This means matchmaking will be disabled around 10:30 AM. From that point on, you will no longer be able to start new games. At 11 AM the servers will then be unreachable.

When will Fortnite’s servers be back online?

When will the servers reopen? Due to the later start of the maintenance and the fact that this is a major release, we could expect longer maintenance work. However, you should be able to log in again by early afternoon (between 1 PM and 3 PM).

As soon as the servers are back online, you will find out here on MeinMMO. Here you will also find the patch notes, which will be published promptly at the start of the downtime.

Fortnite-AK-47
Newly introduced last week – heavy assault rifle

What Battle Royale players can expect with update 6.30: In competitive multiplayer mode, players can look forward to a new toy after the introduction of the AK-47 assault rifle last week: the turret!

This will likely be permanently mounted and needs to be operated directly by a player. We will likely experience how the new gadget will influence game balance shortly after the release.

Removal of the glide opening: Additionally, Epic has completed tests with the glider mechanic, which allowed you to reopen the glider at a certain height. With update 6.30, this system will be removed from all game modes. Exceptions are Playground and special limited-time modes (such as Height Rush or Disco Domination).

Is the Fast Food War starting today? Dataminers have already discovered changes to the Fortnite: Battle Royale map, showing a new location. According to these dataminers, this place will revolve around burgers, is a war between burger flippers and pizza bakers coming our way?

The fact that Epic is bringing both the pizza and burger skins to the shop today is surely just a coincidence, right?

Fortnite-fast-food
In the shop today – the fast food skins!

Whether Epic will bring a fix for the recently discovered exploit that allows you to shoot much more accurately is still unknown.

What Save the World players can expect with update 6.30: That the PvE part will no longer be free in 2018 has been widely known. Epic wants to initiate renovation measures first and revise game systems.

With today’s update, the first step is being taken! Because the menus and also some progression systems will be fundamentally reworked today. Among other things, the research tree will be much clearer. These and other changes in PvE of Fortnite should greatly improve the gaming experience.

Fortnite-Rabatz-Ödland-Kirieger

Turrets also in Save the World: As Epic also announced, PvE players will also get to enjoy the turret. However, this will not happen today, but in a future update.

What do you think about the update? What are you most looking forward to?

Pokémon GO: In a few hours, the CP of your Pokémon will change

Noah Struthoff Noah Struthoff Reading time 2 minutes

Pokémon GO has announced WP changes for tonight, November 14. We will show you what to look forward to.

When will the WP change come? Weeks ago, Niantic announced a change in Pokémon values. These changes will take effect tonight, November 14, at 10 PM.

The changes will be made automatically, so you do not need to change anything on your account.

What do these changes bring? 

Niantic aims to achieve a greater game balance with the adjustment of values. Not only the WP of all Pokémon will change, but also their base stats. This includes defense and HP values. The attack values of all Pokémon remain the same.

Title image Shiny November Pokemon GO

winners & losers: The Pokémon that will benefit from the change are those that have not had good defense or HP values so far. The losers of these changes are primarily the Pokémon that have high defense and HP values. It is feared that especially Heiteira will lose a lot of WP.

Changes are meant to close gaps: The changes are especially intended to close the gap between good and poor defenders. One should be able to attack better with classic defenders and survive longer in an arena with weak defenders.

Pokémon GO Heiteira Title 5

Change of the formula: With the adjustment of the values, the formula that has previously determined the competition points of the Pokémon will also change.

No Gen 4 Pokémon: Only Pokémon from the first three generations are affected by the changes. The values of Pokémon from the 4th generation were already changed before their release.

How the community reacts

A large part of the community is excited about the change in values. It brings the possibility to use Pokémon that have not been used often before more frequently again. Other players are mourning Pokémon that will be weakened now.

Many players collected Pokémon with special competition points. These will now be changed and will no longer have these WP.

Dead by Daylight promises content for 5 to 7 years

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

The developers of Dead by Daylight are confident: There will be new killers, survivors, and maps for years to come.

Dead by Daylight has developed fantastically since its launch in 2016 – despite Pay2Lose. The development team, which initially consisted of 35 people, has now grown into the triple digits. This also ensures that developers can increasingly release new content in the form of killers, survivors, events, or cosmetics.

Dead by Daylight Doctor Skin Hallowed Blight trans

In an interview with mmorpg.com, the developers discussed the rough plan they have for 2019 and beyond.

Dead by Daylight Spirit Adam Smith

The plan for 2019: Although the developers say they can’t reveal anything concrete yet, it looks like they want to “copy” the 2018 roadmap and stick with the plan. This would mean four new chapters (each with one killer, one survivor, and one map). Furthermore, there should also be “big, fundamental improvements” to the game. The performance on consoles PS4 and Xbox One is particularly mentioned here, which still leaves much to be desired for many players.

Content for many years: The developers also gave a small insight into their internal, long-term plan. They briefly considered a “Dead by Daylight 2” but quickly dismissed the idea. Instead, they want to keep improving the base game and have a plan that would last for “five to seven years”. This should mean a lot more new killers and survivors.

Dead by Daylight Spirit title

The last killer was “The Spirit” and has been dismantling survivors on the live servers for several weeks now. It shouldn’t be long before a new killer is announced.

Which killer would you like to see in Dead by Daylight? What would fit well into the eerie world of the Entity?

Donnerlord in Destiny 2 – So schnappt ihr Euch das erste schwere MG

Sven Galitzki Sven Galitzki Reading time 4 minutes

In Destiny 2 you can now secure the first heavy machine gun. The final part of the mysterious murder quest is live and rewards Guardians with the Thunderlord at the end. We explain how you can successfully complete the quest.

What leaks had announced weeks ago has now proven to be true. With the weekly reset on November 13th, the third part of the festival quest went live and actually took Guardians back to the Cosmodrome on Earth, where many Guardians started their journey in Destiny. At the end of this nostalgic trip, there was the first heavy MG in Destiny 2 – the Thunderlord.

How to get the Thunderlord in Destiny 2

d2 amanda

This is what you need to do first: The first example of this new weapon category (in Destiny 2) is behind a three-part quest series that started about two weeks ago. To tackle the last step, you must first successfully complete the first two steps. Both are quite short and should not take too much time if you haven’t done them yet.

What you need to do is explained here:

Once you have completed these quest steps, you can focus on the third and final part.

This is how the last quest step works: To get the last step of this quest, you first need to visit Amanda Holiday at the Tower. Talk to her, and then the task will continue for you.

Amanda will send you as part of the mission “The Lost Cryptarch” back into the Lost Sector Whisperfall in the Outskirts area of the EDZ on Earth. There, a Fallen teleport field has been found, and you should check where it leads.

d2 flüsterfall quest
Here you will find the quest for the Thunderlord

The mission will be prominently displayed on the location map and is hard to miss. Fight your way through the Lost Sector or simply run through to the last room, where the boss is located. You can completely ignore or eliminate this boss. However, he is absolutely irrelevant for quest progression.

Simply activate the Fallen teleporter in this room, which is marked with a mission symbol. This will take you back to the Cosmodrome on Earth. From there, follow the mission progression and the corresponding markers. The mission progression is self-explanatory. In the end, you will encounter the killer of Master Ives, a Fallen boss that must be defeated.

d2 gefallenen teleporter
This is the Fallen teleporter

Once you have done that, you need to escape from the Cosmodrome. For this, take the same way back. Once you arrive at the end, you need to interact with the visibly marked Fallen teleporter again, and the mission is complete. Now you just need to visit Amanda Holiday at the Tower.

The reward: At Amanda you will then receive the last engram from Master Ives. After that, you only have to go to the Tower Cryptarch Master Rahool. Once you have decrypted this exotic engram, you will receive the first heavy machine gun from Destiny 2 – the Thunderlord.

Actually, the category of heavy MGs is supposed to come to the game in December, but Bungie apparently wants to give Guardians a little taste of what to expect.

Important: The Thunderlord is only available this way until November 27, 2018. After that, it will be available randomly from exotic engrams.

In this video, Nexxoss Gaming guides you through the entire Thunderlord quest:

https://youtu.be/XCSYckkji1o

Hidden scannable objects: In the Cosmodrome on Earth, Bungie has placed some scannable objects that are likely to evoke further nostalgia feelings, especially among Destiny veterans. All these objects are located outside the wall of the Cosmodrome. It is recommended to first complete the mission and scan them calmly on the way back.

In the following video by Mesa Sean, you will see the locations of all objects:

What do the fans say? The nostalgic trip to the Cosmodrome has the community divided. Many players consider it a cool experience that evokes old memories and reminds them of their first steps in Destiny. Others see this final step of the murder quest as too short, uninspired, and label it as cheap content recycling.

Also in the comments on MeinMMO, this is evident. But aside from what people think of the quest – the community is enthusiastic about the Thunderlord. On Reddit and YouTube, players are overflowing with praise for this first example of the new weapon category.

What do you think of the quest? Did the trip to the Cosmodrome compensate for the tedious quest steps before? And how do you find the Thunderlord?

With patch 8.1, you must relearn all Mythic Dungeons in WoW

Cortyn Cortyn Reading time 2 minutes

With Patch 8.1, there is a new affix for mythic dungeons in World of Warcraft. This means you need to kill all mobs twice!

To keep mythic dungeons in Battle for Azeroth fresh and interesting, Patch 8.1 Tides of Vengeance introduces a new affix at the start of the new dungeon season, which comes into play from “Mythic+10”.

What are dungeon seasons? Parallel to the PvP seasons of Battle for Azeroth, there are also seasons for mythic dungeons. Each time, there is a special affix that is thematically linked to a specific boss. Currently, this is the affix “Infested,” but with Patch 8.1 Tides of Vengeance it will be “Reaping.”

Recommended editorial content

At this point you will find external content from YouTube that complements the article.

I consent to external content being displayed to me. Personal data can be transmitted to third party platforms. Read more about our privacy policy.
Link to the YouTube content

What does the affix Reaping do? Reaping is linked to Bwonsamdi, the Loa of Death. It causes ghosts to resurrect from all enemies for every 20% of defeated mobs in a dungeon (which are necessary for the progress bar). These enemies appear at the spot where they were defeated and must then actually walk towards the players.

WoW Nazmir Bwonsamdi

Whether these resurrected foes have their full strength has not been said yet, but it seems unlikely. In any case, one should probably have many group stuns and strong defensive cooldowns ready for these moments.

Reaping is meant to change dungeon runs: The main goal of the developers is to change the way “Mythic+” dungeons are played with Reaping. With Reaping in play, you can no longer take the “well-known” path through a dungeon, as triggering the affix could attract many additional mob groups that join the ghosts and lead to the players’ demise.

Special event for losers: The developers also hinted that something “special” will happen if players do not complete the dungeon within the time limit. What exactly that is has not been explained yet – we will only see that when the Patch 8.1 goes live in mid-December.

Are you looking forward to the new affix? Or do you not feel like learning new strategies for the old dungeons?

Overwatch Patchnotes: New heroine Ashe is now playable

Benedict Grothaus Benedict Grothaus Reading time 2 minutes

A new patch has been applied to Overwatch on the live servers. This brings some changes to heroes and the new hero Ashe.

Ashe is here! With the Overwatch patch from November 13, 2018, the new hero Ashe has been released. Along with the new DPS hero, some other heroes have received minor balance changes.

Overwatch Ashe Weapon shouldered title

Overwatch Patch Notes for Ashe’s Release

New hero – Ashe: Ashe is a DPS hero who mainly relies on her lever-action rifle Viper to deal damage. She is the first heroine to use iron sights, which gives her a significant damage boost, if played correctly.

Ashe’s other abilities include:

  • a bundle of dynamite
  • a double-barreled shotgun
  • her butler and bodyguard Bob

With her ultimate ability “B.O.B.” Ashe summons her giant omnic friend to her side, who lifts enemies into the air and thereafter bombards them with shots from his arm cannon. As long as Bob is active, the team effectively has 7 heroes in play.

Overwatch Reunion Bob Screenshot

Changes to other heroes: In addition to Ashe, some heroes have received minor changes affecting their effectiveness. Most of these changes are buffs:

  • Mercy now heals 60 damage per second instead of 50 during Valkyrie and can activate Valkyrie 15% faster.
  • Reaper heals 10% more from his shots and can fire more precisely, which some fans view as a nerf.
  • Symmetra’s primary fire charges 20% faster.
Overwatch LNY Mercy

A somewhat larger update has been received by the tank hero Roadhog. Roadhog’s hook now pulls enemies faster after hitting them and reduces their speed, making it harder for them to escape. The cooldown now begins as soon as he uses the ability.

Additionally, the spread pattern of Roadhog’s primary and alternate fire has been adjusted, and his ultimate has been slightly buffed. “Whole Hog” can now push targets back more forcefully and has less horizontal recoil.

Overwatch Roadhog Shoot

There are also several bug fixes. You can find the full and official patch notes in German on the Overwatch website.

Get started and try Ashe! In our Overwatch group, you’ll surely quickly assemble a full team, and on Facebook you’ll find more info about Overwatch.

By the way, nothing has been tweaked on Brigitte, even though a good troll has made the Overwatch community believe otherwise.

Fortnite Clay Pigeons: Map shows all locations for clay pigeon shooting

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time 3 minutes

In Week 3 of Season 5 of Fortnite: Battle Royale, it’s all about clay pigeons. But where are the flying discs for shooting clay pigeons? Find out in our guide “Shoot a clay pigeon at different locations” – we have a map with the locations of the clay pigeons.

New version available: The special task in Week 8 of Season 6 is basically the same as here in Week 3 of Season 5. Here you can find the current clay pigeon guide from Season 6.

Clay pigeons in Fortnite? You need to complete a mini-game at 5 different locations: shooting clay pigeons. For this, Epic has placed new clay pigeon launchers in various locations. There you can launch the clay pigeons and just need to hit them.

Shooting clay pigeons at 5 different locations in Fortnite – here’s how

This is how you take out clay pigeons: Once you have found a launcher, you just need to activate it. The machine will then launch the flying discs. You will ideally take them down with a weapon with a good rate of fire. Submachine guns or assault rifles work well.

Attention: You need to hit three times in a row for the challenge to count. Each time you hit, the machine will launch the next pigeon, so watch out.

Tip: Keep the crosshair in the same spot after you have hit once, as the next pigeon will come to the same position.

Be cautious during the mini-game: In a team, one can also operate the machine while another player shoots at it. Just be careful that you don’t become the target yourself during the shooting fun. Some professional killer in a suit or high-tech supervillain could be lurking in the bushes, ready to pick you off while you’re clay pigeon shooting.

Game within a game: You can also organize your own clay pigeon mini-game as a competition. The machines count your hits.

Where can you shoot clay pigeons? The 6 locations

This is how you complete the task: To earn your reward, you need to hit a clay pigeon at five different locations. We have summarized the currently known locations in the following paragraphs.

  • In the west of Pleasant Park is a large hill. At its southern foothill is the clay pigeon device.

Black Ops 4 update brings the popular map Nuketown back to PS4 first

Patrick Freese Patrick Freese Reading time 2 minutes

Are you excited for the release of Nuketown in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 ? Now it’s finally here – at least on PS4. A new Black Ops 4 update is now live. And as Treyarch recently announced on Twitter, the popular map can be played on Sony’s console today.

Black Ops 4 Nuketown Release: Long before the launch of Black Ops 4, the developers announced that fans would see some beloved elements from past CoD titles again. Among them are five maps that fans have come to love.

Today, on November 13th, the popular map Nuketown returns. But not for all players at once.

New update for CoD: Black Ops 4 brings Nuketown to PS4

Recently, the official Call of Duty account teased with a short video that the map would return on November 13th. The tweet conveys a Russian message with the video, which roughly translates to “Welcome back”.

It was also stated on Twitter that the map can be visited today. Thus, Black Ops 4 is the fourth part of Call of Duty in which Nuketown is playable as a map.

Black Ops 4 Nuketown

New Black Ops 4 update is live: Today, on 13.11., shortly after 19:00, there was a new update for Black Ops 4, which brings back the Nuketown map. Treyarch also confirmed this in the official patch notes. Nuketown is now the 15th map for multiplayer in Black Ops 4.

The official patch notes for the Black Ops 4 update from November 13th: Unfortunately, the patch notes are not available in German. Therefore, we have linked the original English change log for you.

Initially only on PlayStation 4: Players on Sony’s console can play the new map first. A week later, the exclusivity on PS4 ends. Then players on PC and Xbox One can also enjoy Nuketown.

More maps in planning: Through the Black Ops Pass, twelve more maps for Black Ops 4 are expected to be released.

This is what the community says: Many players on Reddit are unhappy that this content is also released with PS4 exclusivity.

User SaiyanSlayin writes: Activision also confirmed that Santa will not arrive for Xbox and PC users until after December 31. 7 days after Christmas on PS4.

Other players note that specialists Torque and Ajax will likely dominate the matches on the map.

Fortnite: The reasons why the map will receive a new location

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time 3 minutes

In Fortnite: Battle Royale, clues are intensifying about a new location on the map. The new Point of Interest (POI) on the map could be related to the ongoing war between the burger restaurant and the tomato cult.

What’s up with the burger and the pizza? Since the early days of Fortnite, two places have been a staple of the map: the pizza shop “Pizza Pit” with the tomato head and the burger joint “Durrr-Burger” in Greasy Grove, which had a rather unappetizing burger head as a mascot.

Both landmarks disappeared at the end of Season 4 into the rifts and reappeared during Season 5. The burger somewhere in the wilderness, the tomato head finally reappeared in a spectacular form as a bizarre temple complex.

Tomato-Temple-Fortnite

The conflict is brewing: The first sign of trouble between burger and pizza came with the release of the Elite version of the tomato head skin. This could be upgraded with challenges.

Epic also released a title image showing tomato heads violently converting a Durrr-Burger employee to the tomato cult. From then on, it was clear that there could be no peace between burger supporters and tomato cultists!

Clues about the new location intensify

The burger shop is closing: The first victory of the tomato heads was the closure of the Durrr-Burger store with Update 6.22. However, food trucks from Pizza Pit and Durrr Burger then appeared, somehow watching each other.

Fortnite-Durr-Burger-Neu
Not where it belongs: The Durr Burger head

A Reddit user has a theory: Reddit user Inzaine analyzed the facts and clues from the ongoing conflict and gained some astonishing insights: It seems that there will soon be a new location, a Point of Interest (POI) on the Fortnite map.

Accordingly, a new place related to the fast-food war is likely to appear soon near the soccer hall west of Tilted Towers.

Pizza vs. Burger – the great battle

All clues at a glance: The following indicators all point to the new place:

  • The food trucks from Durrr Burger and Pizza Pit are both there, watching each other again.
  • The gang advertisement on the field mentions Durrr-Burger. It seems to be the last stronghold of the burger supporters.
  • The soccer stadium would be a good place that needs a renovation again and would be a good alternative to Tilted Towers or Greasy Grove.
  • Around the same time in the season, the tomato temple was introduced to the game.
  • Epic itself launched a poll on Twitter on November 12, asking if players preferred pizza or burgers for lunch.
  • There were clues found in the game files about a burger POI.

If all this holds true, the soccer stadium will soon be the setting for an epic battle between burger and pizza, altering the map once again. This would create a lucrative new loot location.

This is what the players say: The conflict between burger and pizza is eagerly watched by the community. Many players are already looking forward to the next chapter and the potential new location.

Some fans even suspect that Epic will let players decide through surveys whether the burger or tomato heads will win. Epic has indeed introduced the new, limited-time game mode “Food Fight” with Update 6.3!

Things are also happening in PvE:

These are the prices for atoms in the in-game shop in Fallout 76

Benedict Grothaus Benedict Grothaus Reading time 2 minutes

Fallout 76 offers a cash shop for players who want to invest a little money in their appearance in addition to the gameplay experience. Since the launch of Fallout 76, the costs of atoms have also been known.

What is the Atom Shop? In the Atom Shop, you can stock up on cosmetic items in Fallout 76. These change your appearance or give you access to new emotes. You do not gain any advantages from this.

Fallout 76 Screenshot Atom Shop

How to Get Atoms and Their Cost

Buying Atoms: Atoms are the “premium currency” in Fallout 76. Instead of real money, you pay in the Atom Shop with atoms, which you must buy with real money. Since the early access of Fallout 76, the prices of atoms have been known:

  • 500 atoms: €4.99
  • 1100 atoms: €9.99
  • 2400 atoms: €19.99
  • 5000 atoms: €39.99

Earn Atoms: If you do not want to spend real money, you can also earn atoms. Completing challenges consistently rewards you with atoms in Fallout 76. Most challenges are fulfilled alongside regular gameplay and many of them are repeatable.

Fallout 76 Screenshot Atome Kosten

Items Available in the Atom Shop

What can I buy? For atoms, you receive purely cosmetic items that can change the appearance of your Power Armor, your Pip-Boy, or your constructed items in the C.A.M.P.

You can also buy items that appear directly in the game:

  • Costumes that your character can wear over normal armor
  • Items you can place in the C.A.M.P.
  • Tattoos for your character
  • Emotes and icons

The Atom Shop also offers some additional features for the photo mode of Fallout 76, such as new frames.

Is the cash shop worth it? Reactions to the shop with premium currency vary. The Atom Shop of Fallout 76 is neither condemned nor praised.

Most fans find the prices in the Atom Shop “reasonable” and many players appreciate that you can also earn atoms in the game. So if someone wants to invest money into customization, they are welcome to do so.

Other players find the shop unnecessary and think the time required is too much if you do not want to pay money. One user reported collecting 690 atoms after over 12 hours and “just enough for a pajama.”

What do you think of the Atom Shop? Do you like to stock up on cosmetics or find it unnecessary? Comment here or in our Fallout group and visit us on Facebook for more info about Fallout 76.

Fallout 76 is still being worked on after the release. This is what Fallout 76 plans for the first updates after launch.

PUBG kommt endlich auf PS4 und lässt euch als Nathan Drake spielen

Jürgen Horn Jürgen Horn Reading time 2 minutes

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) is finally coming to PlayStation 4. The release date for PS4 is on December 7th. There will be a range of exclusive skins from PS4 game classics like Uncharted.

The battle royale shooter PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is launching almost a year after the Xbox release for PlayStation 4. After there were initial hints, an official release date is now known.

pubg-ps4-titel

When will PUBG come to PS4? The PlayStation version of PUBG is set to release on December 7, 2018. Pre-orders will be available starting November 13.

Why is it coming to PS4 only now? According to the developers, the PS4 version has been in development since the beginning of the year. They wanted to wait and see how the Xbox version performed and once that was settled, the focus shifted to PS4.

And why is it really coming to PS4 only now? Bluehole seems to have made a deal with Microsoft to delay the announcement of the PS4 port.

Though this is just speculation. It seems likely that they promised Microsoft to be console exclusive on Xbox One for about a year – and during that time not to discuss a PS4 port.

This explains the odd dance that Bluehole has been doing since 2017:

How much will PUBG cost on PS4? Like the Xbox and PC versions, PUBG on PS4 will cost $29.99. The Euro price should be identical.

Unique Skins for PS4

What is different about the PS4 version? As a small bonus, pre-orders on PlayStation 4 will receive unique skins. These include:

  • a skin of Nathan Drake from Uncharted,
  • Ellie’s backpack from The Last of Us,
  • a special avatar,
  • a Miramar console theme
  • and a PlayStation-themed parachute.
    PUBG Event Mode Title

What the community says: While some PS4 players are certainly looking forward to PUBG, the reactions are currently rather lukewarm. Many players believe they would have been overjoyed 18 months ago.

But now they are happy with Fortnite or Black Ops 4 and do not need PUBG to experience battle royale fun.
