Again, there are set photos from the filming of the movie for Monster Hunter World. They confirm the impression that was already created by other photos. It’s going to be military.
The film with a $60 million budget is currently in production, which is why there are constantly new photos from the set. The latest snapshots again show heavy military equipment and cheerful soldiers.
New photos of the film from MHW released
Here’s what the new photos show: In the new images, you can see actors and military equipment in a desert area. They are posing cheerfully.
In this picture, the crew poses on a vehicle that looks like a buggy.
Apparently, at least part of the film will have a lot to do with the military. It may only involve the beginning of the film. Many fans would probably wish that the monsters take center stage. After all, it is an adaptation of the Monster Hunter series.
However, much indicates that the military will play a central role. Details that are currently known about the plot provide an explanation.
Again, you can see the buggy and another vehicle of the UN crew.
What is the film about Monster Hunter? The leader of a UN crew named Artemis (Milla Jovovich) somehow gets transported through a portal into the world of Monster Hunter during a mission. There, she must fight for her survival with the locals. She also has to stop the monsters from entering our world.
Previously, some set photos had already been released. Among them, a photo of Jovovich with the slingshot known from MHW. Fans were far from enthusiastic about the set photos. This probably will not change after the new images.
However, there were already firearms in Monster Hunter World before. A fan posted a picture of Solid Snake fighting a Rathalos on Twitter in reaction to the set photos. There had already been a crossover between Monster Hunter and Metal Gear on the PS2.
This is what the director says: According to director Paul W.S. Anderson, there will be no new monsters in the film. The focus will mainly be on monsters from Monster Hunter World and possibly other titles from the series.
I don’t need to create new monsters. There has been such a great variety of cool creatures over the years. We rely heavily on the creatures from Monster Hunter: World, […] but we also bring some from the, in my opinion, great monsters from the earlier games […]

The Loadout for the Prestige Raid wings this time is limited to a kinetic submachine gun, any energy weapon, and a grenade launcher in the Power slot. The modifier is Gladiator.
In the Eververse you can find parts of the new class sets (chest armor), the exotic ghost shell Anointed Vigilance, as well as weapon ornaments for the Trinity Ghoul and the Worldline Zero.
A major criticism of Red Dead Redemption 2 is the clunky and sluggish controls. A video compared the input lag of RDR 2 with other games and may have pinpointed the root of the problem.
Despite all the praise that RDR 2 has already received, a major criticism stands out: the controls. Even in the evaluation of the game by our MeinMMO community, the clunky controls were identified as a major disruptive factor.
In a new video, RDR 2 was compared with other games, and a potential root of all evil was identified.
The controls have been described as “dated”, “sluggish”, or “lazy”.
Video gets to the bottom of controls: Not only readers of MeinMMO believe that there is something wrong with the controls of Red Dead Redemption 2.
Dan Lowe, a lead tech animator at Motive Studios, has now compared the Western adventure with other third-person games and identified input lag as one of the culprits.
Input lag is the delay it takes for a game to recognize and execute a button command. For the test, besides Red Dead Redemption 2, games like Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, Spider-Man, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, and Destiny 2 were also examined.

RDR 2 with the highest delay: Unsurprisingly, RDR 2 exhibited the highest input lag of all the games in the test conducted on the same television, with the same console and settings. RDR 2 takes 11 frames before the game responds to any commands. Following that are Uncharted: The Lost Legacy with 6 frames and Assassin’s Creed Odyssey with 4 frames.
Spider-Man needed only 3 frames to execute commands, while Destiny 2 only required 1 frame.
According to a comment on VG247, each frame at RDR 2 is about 33 milliseconds long if the game is running at 30 frames. In the best case, that would mean that Red Dead Redemption 2 takes 330 milliseconds to respond to console commands.
However, it seems that input lag is not the sole culprit behind the sluggish controls. Many interactions in the game are tied to long animations, which make the game feel even slower.
Update: We corrected an error where we mistakenly wrote that the comparison was made in milliseconds instead of in frames. Thanks to Thorsten Roth for the tip!
In Fortnite: Save the World, major changes are coming this week. Almost all menus are being revamped. Gameplay systems are also being completely overhauled, revised, and expanded. Additionally, a revolver known to Destiny players is coming.
The stated goal is to make the many scattered menus clearer. Save the World is supposed to become more accessible.
This is the screen for the Command Center. From here you will be able to access 4 sub-screens.
The renovation is set to begin this week with the major patch 6.3. “Save the World” has so much in store that has not been seen in a long time.
Major overhaul coming this week
What’s happening this week: The most important thing is that all menus in “Save the World” will be reworked at least on the surface. New gameplay systems and features are also being introduced. The entire progress system is being overhauled.
The Command Center serves as an overview for all account progress. From here, you can access the other menus.
In “Heroes,” the Major now appears. Here, Epic is hinting at another feature called “Hero Loadout” that has not yet been revealed: Heroes may soon receive their own special equipment, which was not the case in Fortnite before.
The big new feature “Hero Loadout” – what it entails is still unknown to us.
The “Survivors” screen is now more clearly organized, allowing management of the survivors. However, “Expeditions” and “Defenders” have been separated from here.
The “Upgrades” screen featuring Kevin, the robot assistant, is new. Here you can manage gadgets, expand your backpack, or enhance the pickaxe. These tasks were previously linked to the large progress tree or disappeared into the “Now let’s start the mission” menu.
Here you will manage the bustling survivors.
The “Research” menu is now significantly cleaner and is no longer the huge, branching tree it once was.
In the “Armory,” you should be able to manage schematics, weapons, and resources. The collection is now also included here.
The menu for research – was previously constrained in its own tree.
What else is changing
Save the World also promises:
A new tutorial to better introduce players
To clarify the quests
And resets for research and skills will be coming
Weapons now have collections, the backpack, the inventory, and more menu sub-items.
In the shop, you will find the revolver: The Last Word. A weapon with this name already exists in Destiny. Perhaps Epic is taking inspiration from this weapon.
When is all this coming? It should go live in the next patch. Update 6.3 for Fortnite is expected on Wednesday, at the latest on Thursday.
Fortnite discards the research tree
What this means: It seems that “Fortnite: Save the World” is being significantly streamlined with these changes. Especially the two progress trees with many branches, four tiers, and unlocks appear to be absent in the new Fortnite.
Previously, players had to unlock nodes that only provided relatively meager bonuses or unlocked certain equipment tiers for various items or characters. This cumbersome and complex progress system, which originates from mobile MMOs, seems to be gradually eliminated in Fortnite.
The main goal appears to be to make Fortnite clearer and more accessible.
Together with the release of the Let’s-GO games, Niantic announced an event in Pokémon GO focused on Kanto Pokémon.
The Japanese Twitter account of Pokémon GO announced an event centered around the release of Let’s GO, Pikachu and Let’s GO, Evoli. The two games will be released on November 16 and can be played in conjunction with Pokémon GO.
Pokémon caught in Pokémon GO can then be sent to the Let’s-GO games to earn candies. The release of the games is said to be celebrated with an event.
What did Pokémon GO announce?
So far, only the Japanese Twitter account of Pokémon GO has reported about this event. In their tweet, they mentioned an event that is supposed to celebrate the release of the Let’s-GO games.
Pikachu & Evoli: In the tweet, they mentioned that especially Pikachu and Evoli should appear more frequently during the event. These two Pokémon are the titular figures of the Let’s-GO games. It might be possible to catch these two Pokémon in special forms or with accessories like hats. However, this is currently speculation.
Increased Kanto spawns: In addition to Pikachu and Evoli, other Pokémon from the Kanto region are expected to appear. The Pokémon from the first generation are also the ones that can be caught in the Let’s-GO games. Other generations cannot be caught in the games so far.
No start time known: So far, Niantic has not provided a specific start time for the event. It may possibly start with the release of the games on November 16.
Community Reactions
On Twitter, players’ opinions are divided. Some see the event as an opportunity for new Pokémon, while others complain about yet another Kanto event.
The user “Sonbda2” believes: I suspect more spawns of Evoli could also unlock the Evoli evolutions of the fourth generation. Possibly also other evolutions like Magbrant or Elevoltek”
Twitter user “Styletix” writes ironically: “More Kanto spawns? How original!”
Indeed, we had a Kanto Pokémon event just in September and another event with these Pokémon is not very varied.
Fallout 76 is the next Fallout title that the creators of the popular game series have announced. We have summarized all the information from the release date to the online mode.
With Fallout 76, the publisher takes its first step into multiplayer Fallout. You play with several players together on a map in the middle of West Virginia to rebuild America after the nuclear war.
The most important information:
Release: November 14, 2018
Platforms: PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
Developer: Bethesda Game Studios
Publisher: Bethesda Softworks
This article was published on June 11, 2018, and updated on November 13.

Fallout 76: Release and Size for PC, PS4, and Xbox One
However, those who purchased Fallout 76 directly from the PlayStation Store or Microsoft Store may not be able to play until the official release, according to some reports.
How big is Fallout 76? The game is approximately 50 GB for PC and can be downloaded via the Bethesda Launcher. You can obtain the launcher from the official website. On PS4 and Xbox One, Fallout 76 is about 45 GB. For PS4, you can download Fallout 76 from the PlayStation Store, and for Xbox One from the Microsoft Store.
After Fallout 4 took place in the Commonwealth, Fallout 76 takes you to West Virginia. Fallout 76 is a prequel to all previously released Fallout titles. What happens here is supposed to explain why the other Fallout titles look the way they do.
The game world is the most important factor in Fallout 76. Through the design of an open world with placed notes, terminals, and audiologs, Fallout 76 aims to present its story.
Bethesda has even introduced some factions that fought for survival outside the vault. Besides familiar groups like the Brotherhood of Steel and the Raiders, the Enclave is also represented, which is already known from earlier titles.
Put on the Pip-Boy, let’s go!
Who do I play in Fallout 76? You are a resident of Vault 76, one of the vaults that opened first after the nuclear war. 25 years after sealing, you are supposed to rebuild the world.
Your task is not only to rebuild walls and buildings. You also need to rekindle the spirit of humanity. Your goal is to make America what it was before the war: a “great nation”.
What kind of game will Fallout 76 be? Fallout 76 is an online game with RPG and survival elements.
With how many people can I play Fallout 76?
This is how Fallout 76 plays: Fallout 76 will be a purely online game – but not in the way you fear. Up to 4 players can cooperate in a group. As typical for Fallout, there will still be quests, a story, and a leveling system.
Can I play solo? Yes, however, on the servers available at the beginning, there will always be other players around. You will be able to walk through West Virginia alone, but Fallout 76 is intended as a group game. At a later time, there will be options for private servers and mods, making solo play easier.
The entire game world is meant to be populated by players. Every other vault dweller you meet will be controlled by a human. There should be dozens in an instance of the game. The experience will not be limited by servers – you can take your character and progress anywhere to play with your friends.
Bethesda has already presented many features of Fallout 76 at the press conference and in subsequent statements. We have compiled them for you:
“Softcore Survival”: The core elements of Fallout 76 will be survival and building. The goal is to rebuild America – and that can only be achieved if you survive. Death does not mean severe consequences: you do not lose progress or even your character. The survival features of Fallout 76 should not be annoying.
Nuclear rockets – that’s why the world looks so terrible “later”: In Fallout 76, you have access to launch stations for nuclear missiles. Get the launch codes from the NPC enemies and team up to fire the rockets. Choose a location – and flatten it. You can not only eliminate unwanted enemies but also find rare materials and particularly strong opponents to fight in the fallout of the rockets. This is what an impact looks like.
S.P.E.C.I.A.L. remains: Fallout 76 is based on its predecessors for leveling up. Your attributes are still divided into the 7 known traits and can be increased when leveling up. Perks are back as well.
What is the maximum level? The highest level is level 100. However, you only receive skill points up to level 50. Currently, these cannot be reset.
Along with the perks, there is also the option to customize your character through mutations. Mutations arise from radiation and work similarly to traits from the earlier Fallout titles. So far, 16 mutations are known, each having its advantages and disadvantages.
In principle: Yes. PvP is a fixed part of the game, and players should always have the chance to attack others. However, Bethesda has already talked about PvP and the protection of newcomers and PvE players.
PvP for (almost) everyone: Since Fallout 76 will be a multiplayer survival game, combat between players is also planned. PvP battles should be possible at any time – only those who carry a pacifist flag cannot attack other players.
Protection for newbies: As a new player, you also don’t need to fear being shot out of the game immediately by higher-level characters. Up to level 5, you are invulnerable. Equipment also scales, so even a power armor does not make you invincible.
If you still want to completely avoid PvP, you also have the chance to become a trader or take on other professions in Fallout 76.
No PvP in the story and events: There will also be some story missions where you will not be attacked by other players – there is no PvP in story missions.
Concerns about nuclear bombs have also preoccupied some fans. However, the developers explained that you can simply save your base in blueprints and rebuild it anywhere, and that you have an untouchable personal storage. Thus, a bomb can never take everything away from you.
In public events that occur frequently, you will be automatically assigned to a public group. Here too, participants cannot attack each other.
Are there criticisms and concerns about the game?
Yes, many people have already raised concerns about Bethesda’s current approach. The PvP is a thorn in the flesh for many fans who prefer to experience Fallout as an exploration of a ruined world at their own pace and without stress from other players. Bethesda constantly apologizes to these solo players.
Furthermore, the way the beta is supposed to be conducted is annoying some fans greatly. Due to some communication errors, it seemed that beta players would be invited in waves. This was clarified by Pete Hines afterwards.
You can buy different editions, but DLCs will be free
Fallout 76 will be released in various editions, all of which include the base game. Some of them come with great features and content: Here are the versions compared.
The most expensive (and probably most popular) version is the Collector’s Edition. This includes:
A map of the world that glows in the dark
Miniature figures of characters from Fallout 76
A portable T-51 power armor helmet with a functioning voice modulator and headlamp
Together with Murkmire, The Elder Scrolls Online has been expanded with various item sets. Especially for Magicka users, the “Spell Strategist” set stands out. We show you how to obtain it and what makes it so special.
Those who fight in PvP with light armor should take a look at the Spell Strategist set. But even in PvE, Spell Strategist shows its strength.
Spell Strategist increases Magicka
Why is Spell Strategist so strong? The complete set grants you the following bonuses. The numbers refer to the number of armor pieces you wear from the set.
2: Your maximum Magicka is increased.
3: You gain increased Magicka power
4: Your Magicka power is further enhanced.
5: When you deal damage with a light attack, your target is marked for 5 seconds. This mark grants you 500 Magicka power against the target. The effect can occur once every 4 seconds.
Because the effect can reoccur every 4 seconds and is activated with each light attack, it can theoretically be maintained permanently. This fact makes the set very strong in PvP and PvE. Spell Strategist allows for a significant amount of magical damage to be inflicted on the opponent.
Why is high Magicka power strong? Higher values in Magicka power increase the damage you deal with Magicka skills or weapons to your enemies.
The set is only available in PvP
How can I obtain Spell Strategist? Spell Strategist is a PvP set. You can obtain it through “Just Reward”.
A post-message with “Just Reward” is received once you have collected a certain number of alliance points in PvP. The YouTuber AlexOs recommends farming the set best through the Battlegrounds.
A strong combination against other players
Spell Strategist and Siroria: Especially in combination with another set, Spell Strategist can shine. Items from the “Cloak of Siroria” set can be obtained in the Trial Cloudrest or by completing the weekly trial quest.
The “Cloak of Siroria” set grants you the following benefits:
2: You gain Magicka power
3: You receive an effect that increases damage against NPCs in dungeons, trials, and arenas by 5%.
4: Your maximum Magicka is increased
5: When you deal direct damage to an enemy with a single-target ability, you create a fire ring under you for 10 seconds. This fire ring grants you 5 seconds of a stack of Siroria’s Bounty, which increases your Magicka power by 30 per stack. You can have a maximum of 20 stacks, and the effect can reoccur every 10 seconds.
If you wear both sets in combination, you can significantly increase your Magicka power through the combination of light attacks and single-target abilities and thus make your opponents’ health points dwindle.
According to the YouTuber AlexOs, a combination of both sets is advisable in PvP.
On Venus, this time it’s about rescuing oppressed workers from the greedy Corpus corporation, racing on hoverboards, and saving endangered species.
New player record set:Fans seem to be thrilled with Fortuna and have flocked to Venus in droves since last weekend. This led to a new player record on Steam of 131,766 players being online simultaneously.
Even when Game Director Steve Sinclair streamed the moments before the launch via Twitch, over 40,000 people were watching. And nothing much happened except watching a guy work.
Even more successful than the Sacrifice update: With this, Warframe broke the recently set record of over 129,000 concurrent gamers recorded for the last major update Sacrifice. And this is only on Steam, as players on consoles and through the regular launcher are not included in this number.
Players love the new update
What are the reasons for the success? As usual, a lot of work and good ideas are behind the new update. The new map and the enclave of oppressed workers are once again equipped with the familiar exotic charm of the Warframe world.

In addition, the new hoverboard races excite many players and there are plenty of new tasks and challenges on the new map.
Players collect plushies: Anyone currently checking the Warframe Reddit will be flooded with absurd plush toys. Because those who diligently rescue endangered animals from Venus receive stuffed toys to decorate their spaceship. This is currently very well received.
Record could soon be broken again: As impressive as the current record is, it could soon fall again. Because the biggest planned innovation has not yet been released by Digital Extremes.
In 2019, the expansion “Railjack” is supposed to come, where you finally get spaceship battles. This should once again attract masses of players to the servers.
Warframe is one of the most successful and fairest free-to-play games. You can find other recommended free-to-play games here:
Has Bethesda not adhered to its release schedule for Fallout 76? The servers are now online for PC, PS4, and Xbox One worldwide, as many players report.
The release was supposed to be at midnight: Actually, Fallout 76 was supposed to be released at midnight our time. Officially, you would have been able to play starting tomorrow, November 14, at 12:01 AM.
Fallout 76 now available to play on PS4, Xbox One, and PC
Players report: In our article on the official release times of Fallout 76, some readers alerted us to an early start. They can play Fallout 76 already, even though Bethesda’s official release schedule indicated different times. It is not clear if this is a mistake.
More players are logging in: On the official Bethesda Twitter there are more reports from players who are already online. This applies to all three platforms PC, PS4, and Xbox One. Also on Reddit, there are some reports saying that the servers are already online.
Does this apply to all players? We do not know that yet. However, it seems many can already play.
Update November 13, 4:35 PM: Some players report that they cannot access the game on Xbox One with the digital pre-order version. The Microsoft Store shows a message that “it is still too early.” These players will likely have to wait for the official release at midnight.
What is behind this? This is still unknown. There is no official statement from Bethesda on this. There is still a possibility that Bethesda takes the servers offline again.
Many players in the Overwatch League use medications to enhance their performance. At least that’s what one player from the league claims.
The Overwatch League might have a problem with performance-enhancing drugs. At least that’s what player Timo “Taimou” Kettunen asserts in one of his streams.
What did Taimou say? During a Twitch stream, Overwatch player Taimou, who currently plays for the Dallas Fuel in the Overwatch League, spoke about an issue in the league. “Twenty players or more” are using the drug Adderall to improve their in-game performance. If drug tests were to be implemented in the league and the drug were banned, that “would be a big problem for many teams.”

What is Adderall? Adderall is actually a medication designed to help with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Due to its “positive side effects,” such as increased and prolonged attention and faster reaction times, it is also used by many Overwatch players in the league, according to Taimou.
Even in Germany, there have been problems with similar medications for years. For example, students use Ritalin (which has a very similar effect) to get through tough exam phases and study more effectively (via faz.net).
No drug tests in Overwatch: In many esports leagues, drug tests are standard to check players for certain substances beforehand. This is not the case in the Overwatch League, and Nate Nanzer from Blizzard stated that they would “continue to discuss drug tests in the future.” So far, the reason against it is that “scientific studies would need to show that certain substances make one better at video games.”
As long as this is not the case, it seems that no drug tests will be conducted in the Overwatch League.
When Nanzer was specifically asked about Adderall, he simply stated that “Adderall would be a legal medication in America and there is no data suggesting that it makes anyone better at playing Overwatch.”
Do you think drug tests should be a normal part of the Overwatch League? Or should we really wait until studies prove that substances enhance performance in video games?
You have brought your Titan in Destiny 2 to the maximum level of 600 and now want to find out how strong the Nova Warp of the Warlocks really is? With our guide, you will quickly reach a level that will take you into the raid and beyond!
First character at power level 600? Many may now wonder how to level their second and third class. In Destiny 1, players could donate their excess gear to other classes, which could use it to infuse into their own armor (so-called cross-infusing).
Thus, in Destiny 1: If one character is at maximum level, the other two are as well (as long as they have reached the level cap).
Cross-infusing no longer works in Destiny 2: You now have to level each class separately.
However, if you are hesitant because you do not want to undergo the enormous effort for a second or even third time, you should keep reading. Because it can be much easier than you might think.
Redditor LeAlphaWolf has provided a guide that not only allows you to reach power level 590+ in just one day but also gives you the opportunity to unlock all three new subclasses as quickly as possible.
This is possible through the clever use of your character at power level 600, the Exotic vendor Xûr, and your collection!
Pushing Power Level on Second Characters – the Requirements
This is how you can equip the best items on your second Guardian: Before you can make really big jumps, some preparations are necessary:
Unless you have already done so, create a new character of the class you want to level
Complete the base campaign (the expansions Curse of Osiris and Warmind are optional)
Complete the Forsaken expansion
Reach maximum level 50 with the second character
Which equipment you use during this procedure is up to you. Do not worry about infusing your gear until level 50; this gear is typically obsolete within a few minutes.
Pro Tip: Use your character with power level 600 to pull the white submachine gun Sorge MG2 from your collection. This submachine gun has a power level of 580, but has no level requirements!
However, use this weapon on your second character only to quickly eliminate bosses. If you constantly carry the SMG, you will receive new gear, but it will be well above your level.
Once you have reached maximum level 50 and completed all relevant quest steps, it’s time to get serious.
So You Achieve Power Level 590+
Grab your main character and visit Xûr! At maximum level of 600, you can purchase the exotic armor piece that your second character should wear from the noodle-face. This armor piece will drop 20 power levels below your level, so at 580. Then follow these steps:
Transfer one weapon for each slot at level 600 as well as the exotic armor piece to your new character
Go with the new character to the collection under Armor > Leveling
Buy blue armor for the lowest slot until you no longer have level progression. Since the armors scale with your level, you will always receive armors with a higher level up to a certain point
You should now be at power level 577 and can theoretically dive into the Last Wish raid immediately. However, before doing so, you should complete milestones to obtain powerful gear that is not only legendary but also advances your level.
If you have completed this and finished the raid at least once, you should already be at power level 590. Those who played the campaign with friends probably only needed 15-20 hours for the whole process. To unlock your additional focuses, you can still visit the blind well (a Seed of Light is obtained during the story, another in the raid).
Play the raid a second time and complete the milestones to reach the maximum level of 600 within a week. Congratulations!
Have you already reached maximum level with all three classes and have more leveling tips? Let us know in the comments!

Some players from the teams participating in the competitions have received special cards. These cards receive upgrades as teams progress further in the competition. We have compiled the complete list of Champions League RTTF players and more information about the event in our RTTF guide.
Europa League SBCs with Alonso, Tah, and Milinkovic-Savic
RTTF SBCs: While the Champions League players can currently only be obtained through sets or the transfer market, you can earn three Europa League players through current live SBCs. These players are Marcos Alonso, Jonathan Tah, and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic. However, you need to hurry: The SBCs are only available for a few days.
As with the Champions League cards, the same applies to the Europa League cards: Depending on success in the competition, the dynamic cards can improve. The players do not even need to be on the pitch. It is enough if your team progresses.
This is how to get RTTF Marcos Alonso
Chances for upgrades: Marcos Alonso is one of the strongest left-backs in the Premier League in FIFA 19 and plays for Chelsea FC. The English top team is considered one of the favorites for the Europa League title. Therefore, the chances for upgrades for Alonso are good – accordingly, the SBC is also quite expensive.
SBC solution proposals: For Alonso, you need to complete two partial SBCs. First, you need to build and exchange a team with Chelsea players. For example, you can find the following solution on futbin for around 75,000 coins:
However, note: To achieve the required chemistry, you need to obtain the loyalty bonus for nine players. You get this by completing ten games with the respective players.
The second SBC focuses on players from Spain. Here, there are already solution proposals, for example from YouTuber “bateson87“. Be careful, you also need the loyalty bonus here:
Once you have completed the SBCs, you will receive RTTF-Marcos Alonso. Additionally, you will be rewarded with a Jumbo Rare Player Pack and a Mega Pack. So, despite the high cost, the SBC can be very worthwhile.
This is how to get RTTF Milinkovic-Savic
Chances for upgrades: The chances for upgrades for Milinkovic-Savic are also good: As a player from Lazio Rome, the midfielder is part of one of the top teams this season.
SBC solution proposals: On futbin, you can also find several proposals for this SBC, which consists of two parts. For the following proposal for the “Lazio” challenge, you will pay around 57,000 coins but will not need a loyalty bonus. As a reward, you can expect even a “Rare Mega Pack”:
The second part of the challenge concerning Serbian players is particularly expensive at over 100,000 coins but offers a Prime Gold Players Pack as a reward. In addition to around 111,000 coins, you also need the loyalty bonus for the entire squad for the following proposal:
This is how to get RTTF Tah:
Chances for upgrades: Tah plays for Bayer Leverkusen, who have won three times in the current Europa League season and will likely advance to the next round. However, Bayer is currently struggling with fluctuating form, making it difficult to predict how far they will go. Nevertheless, the Tah challenge is definitely worthwhile for Bundesliga players in FUT.
SBC solution proposals: For Tah, you also need to exchange two teams. However, the challenge works a bit differently: For the first part, you only need a Europa League item from Jonathan Tah. You can currently get this from the weekly objectives by scoring ten goals with Bundesliga players. Once you have the item, you can exchange it in the first SBC for a Two Player Pack.
The second SBC focuses on players from Germany. This squad is not particularly expensive but does require the loyalty bonus. You can easily combine this with the 10 goals challenge by having your Bundesliga players complete 10 matches:
Now you can also have Jonathan Tah in the RTTF version. Now just hope that your RTTF players progress far in the Europa League and earn significant upgrades. The dynamic change of cards is certainly not new: Even the OTW cards are in constant value fluctuation. You can find all other special cards here:
The MMORPG Otherland was plagued by many issues, including a change of developers. Now everything is supposed to change. Because the game is getting a major update and a new name.
For last summer a major update for Otherland was planned, which had to be postponed. Now it is finally here, and players are expected to experience a new gameplay with Otherland: Next.
A game struggling for success makes a fresh start
What is Otherland? Probably not many have the MMORPG Otherland on their radar, as it hasn’t been particularly successful.
Otherland takes place in a kind of cyberspace, which consists of seven virtual worlds so far
The MMORPG is based on the book series by author Tad Williams
Players meet in a hub before traveling to the worlds
PvE is the focus
PvP can be experienced in battlefields
A game on the brink of collapse: Otherland is struggling for success. Initially, the MMO was developed by RealU and gamigo before RealU filed for bankruptcy in 2013. Now the Polish studio Drago Entertainment is taking care of development. However, this has not made Otherland successful.
The reviews on Steam stand at 34% with “Mostly Negative”. Critics point to server and network issues, numerous bugs, limited character customization, and sluggish combat.
According to Steamcharts, only an average of 0.4 players are playing the MMO at the same time. The peak was in September 2015 with 200 players.
What does Otherland Next offer? With Otherland, now carrying the new name Otherland: Next, a kind of fresh start is to be initiated. “Next” as the next step into the future of the game. The centerpiece is the introduction of the eighth area, the Fire Isle. However, many more changes are coming to the game.
The ability to read parts of Tad Williams’ new Otherland novella “The Deathless Prince and the Peach Maiden” in the game
New legendary weapons will be added to the game
Introduction of a Social Class focused on social interaction between players
The Social Class offers a new gameplay experience that does without most quests and combat
Improvement of server performance
A new UI will be introduced with a future update
Little feedback due to too few players: With so few players, there are also few reactions to the update. However, this Otherland seems to improve many points that players have criticized so far.
MW2K stated on Steam: “I like the new update – I haven’t visited the Fire Isle yet (I’m only Level 40), but the lag seems to have decreased, and I’m now playing with about 10-20 more fps. The game responds much better.”

In Warframe there is finally the new open-world area Fortuna. It is located on Venus and is not easily reachable. We explain how you can still get there quickly.
Step by step to Fortuna: To reach Venus, you need to complete various tasks, fulfill prerequisites, and get through some tough fights. We will introduce you to the individual steps here.
The missions of the quest series lead you to the jump gate “Venus Junction”. From there, you can continue to Venus. But first, you need to fulfill a few prerequisites.
Collect 20 mods
Mods are upgrades for your weapons, items, and Warframes. They are bright blue modules found in abundance during missions. Once you reach the Venus Junction, you should actually have 20 of them collected.
Equip 4 mods on a Warframe or weapon
This step is also very simple. When you find mods, you can feel free to install them. It’s especially easy via “Auto-Install”. Go to your Arsenal (directly across from the control console in the ship’s lower deck) and select a weapon and/or a Warframe.
Next, select the Upgrades option
A window with numerous mods and installation slots appears.
You can manually install the mods or let the game do it automatically
Select “Actions” at the bottom of the screen
Then choose “Auto-Install”.
Done!
Help, I can’t install mods even though there are enough slots available! This is likely because you do not have enough capacity. Your Warframe at the beginning of the game does not have enough power for many or strong mods.
But don’t worry, the capacity increases with each level your Warframe or weapon levels up. Just level them up in missions by carrying the frame and using the desired weapon.
Upgrade mods with fusion
Mods are really good only when you upgrade them. However, you need a resource called Endo for that. You get it by dismantling mods. Proceed as follows:
In the upgrade menu, at the bottom of the screen, select the tab “Mods”
Click on all mods you have multiples of and select all duplicates
Do this until you have marked all duplicates.
Then click on the action “Dissolve Selected into XX Endo” at the top
Once you confirm the action, you will receive a corresponding amount of Endo.
How do I use Endo to upgrade mods? Now select a mod you want to improve. At the beginning of the game, Vitality is a good choice because it gives you more health points. Then proceed as follows:
Select a mod
Click the action “Start fusing into selected mod”
Now use the “Plus” icon to select how many levels the mod should level up. You will see on the right how much Endo and credits it costs.
Once you have completed the upgrade, this task is finished.
Attention! Keep in mind that higher quality mods consume more capacity in your Warframe. Therefore, if you upgrade the mod too much, it may only find space in the Warframe again when you level up the frame.
Duel with the Specter
Finally, you can activate the jump gate at Venus Junction. But first, a dangerous opponent awaits you. In the control room lurks a Specter, a kind of replica of a Warframe.
At Venus Junction, it is a Rhino Warframe, a tanky colossus that can take a lot of damage. Nevertheless, the fight should not be a major problem. If it is, play around with your mods and level a few frames or weapons until you can handle the Rhino Specter.
Fight your way to Fortuna
Once you arrive on Venus, you only need to complete the missions at E Gate and Unda, then Fortuna is open to you.
However, keep in mind that you must first complete the intro quest “Vox Solaris”, which could be quite tricky. You will definitely need weapons that can kill large groups of enemies and a frame that can take a lot of damage.
Therefore, you should further upgrade your weapons and Warframes. Ideally, you should do the following:
Do defense missions, as enemies come to you and you can accumulate massive kills in a short time. This levels up your equipment nicely
Complete the Mercury Junction on Venus to unlock the Boltor rifle or get the blueprint in the Market menu. Build this weapon through your Foundry, and you will have a very good rifle for starters.
Increase your Mastery Rank over time to gain access to better weapons, including the Hek shotgun at level 4.
Once you are strong enough to complete Vox Solaris, you can freely explore Fortuna and the open world there and enjoy the new features of Warframe, including hoverboards. Have fun!
Other encounters are based on real groups, such as the meetings with the Ku Klux Klan.
What is the Ku Klux Klan? The Ku Klux Klan is a racist, violent organization that primarily operates in America. Usually dressed entirely in white, they target dark-skinned individuals and attempt to enforce “white supremacy”.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=km8wQEfC3z8
The Ku Klux Klan consists of idiots: In Red Dead Redemption 2, the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) is fortunately quite incompetent. If you observe their members long enough, they accidentally kill each other while in ghost costumes. Sometimes they are crushed by their own crosses, other times they set each other on fire, run around in a panic, and ignite more Klan members along the way.
What makes the KKK in RDR2 so special? Normally, Arthur’s honor value decreases when he guns down people – especially if he started the shootout. However, the KKK members are an exception here and have the opposite effect. Killing them raises Arthur’s honor value further. So it might be worthwhile to kill the hooded guys.
However, you should be thorough in doing so: If one of the KKK escapes and reports you, a bounty will be placed on you for murder. However, if there are no witnesses, then a small honor bonus is possible. So remember: If you want to kill racists in RDR2, at least be thorough about it.
As part of a Bungie Bounty, developers from the studio answered some questions about Gambit. They also talked about the future of the still young PvEvP mode in Destiny 2.
Developers chat while playing Gambit: On November 12, 2018, a Bungie Bounty was held on Xbox One – this time the Gambit mode was played. Players had the chance to hunt a team of Bungie employees and win a special emblem if they succeeded.
But the developers didn’t just play, they also answered numerous viewer questions about the Gambit mode. Some details about the future of Gambit were also revealed. Fans can look forward to this in Season 5.
Gambit gets its own Pinnacle Weapon
Gambit fans will have more to do soon: In addition to the Service Violation quest, the Dredgen title, and the grind for God Rolls of the Gambit arsenal, fans will likely receive another long-term engagement for Gambit in the upcoming season.
During the Bungie Bounty, Senior Sandbox Designer Greg C. Peng revealed that the Gambit mode will receive its own Pinnacle Weapon in Season 5. This information was later confirmed by Community Manager Cozmo again on Twitter.
New Gambit weapon similar to the top weapons of PvP: This apparently involves a weapon comparable to the Redrix’s Claymore, Luna’s Howl, or the Not Forgotten from the Crucible. Bungie has referred to all of these weapons as Pinnacle Weapons for PvP.
Fans are already speculating: Unfortunately, no further details have been revealed yet, but fans are convinced that this weapon will also be hidden behind a lengthy quest, requiring guardians to invest significant time and effort – just like the quests for top weapons in PvP.
On Reddit, fans are actively speculating about what type of weapon it could be and whether Bungie will stick to its tradition of using a distinctive Destiny 1 weapon model for the top weapon in Gambit.
This is something many fans desired: In addition to the Pinnacle Weapon, there should be another change in the upcoming Season 5 that many fans have requested. The Catch-Up mechanic is finally set to be adjusted. In its current form, it is not particularly popular among players, as it grants too many advantages to the trailing team.
This system grants the trailing team a special buff. For well-coordinated teams, it is often easier to win when they are behind, saving power ammo and supers, and summoning their primeval later. Therefore, the community has called for the complete removal of this mechanic.
Here’s how they want to rework the mechanic: However, the developers stated that without this system, many players would simply leave matches if they saw no chance of winning. There must be some way for the trailing team to catch up. However, it should no longer be easier to win when falling behind and coming from behind.
In the stream, the developers mentioned that they are considering reducing the stack size of the Primeval Slayer buff that the trailing team receives once they summon their primeval.
What do you think about these Gambit changes for the upcoming Season 5? Are you looking forward to the new Pinnacle Weapons? What do you think it will be?

Fallout 76 is not out yet, but Bethesda is already getting fans excited for the upcoming content.
As Fallout 76 is an online game, regular content is important to keep players engaged. The developer studio Bethesda has already given a first glimpse of what fans can look forward to in the future. However, there are still no dates for the updates.
Fallout 76 looks to the future
This is coming after the release: Bethesda plans new content to be released in the future, along with improvements and optimizations based on player feedback from the B.E.T.A. These things will be introduced after the extensive Day-One patch.
The new content includes:
Faction-based PvP system
New quests and additional events
New vaults will be added for you to explore
You will be able to redistribute character skills
Improvements to the building menu C.A.M.P. will be introduced
The improvements after launch bring the following:
Further adjustments and optimizations to the social menu will be made
The issue with unmanageable hunger will be resolved
Sound issues will be fixed
Players are looking forward to the upcoming updates
This is how fans are reacting to the announcements: In the official Fallout 76 forum, there are initial reactions to what Bethesda plans for the future of the game. Many players are especially excited about the faction PvP. However, the other announcements are also well received.
EnkillEridos writes in the forum: “Woo, faction-PVP!”
tak2014 agrees: “Faction-PVP… Perfect. Now we just need player-controlled radio towers that we can tune our Pip Boys to.”
tokerwolf says: “Character respec? So we are not bound to our S.P.E.C.I.A.L.s? Thanks, guys!”
In Fortnite: Battle Royale, you can reuse your glider for some time now. However, this doesn’t sit well with all players. Professionals, on the other hand, love the feature. Here are the reasons.
How do the “new gliders” work? Since the end of October, it is possible in Fortnite to deploy your glider anytime you reach a certain height and start falling. The required height is about three floors.
Previously, redeploying the gliders was only possible in a special game mode or after using launch pads or rifts.
What are the consequences of the reusable gliders? With the new glider mechanics, you can deploy your glider every fall and glide away safely. This has the following advantages:
You can build ridiculous towers without worries. If an opponent shoots them out from under you, you won’t die
You can quickly save yourself from tricky situations by simply building a tower and jumping off to glide away quickly.
You can nasty ambush opponents by gliding over them in the middle of a fight or shortly after, landing on them and taking out the weakened enemies.
That’s why many players hate the new gliders
This actually sounds pretty cool, right? Many players find the new mechanic quite silly. According to them, the game becomes too easy and any noob can indiscriminately hide in absurdly high forts.
Previously, high forts were a potential death trap unless you secured an escape route with launch pads or other jumping aids. Now you can simply glide away calmly and give the opponent the middle finger.
These are the players’ criticisms: The fact that a kill-hungry but otherwise untalented player can drop on them via glider at any moment annoys many players as well. You no longer feel safe and can’t heal in peace because someone will come gliding in right away ready for trouble.
Especially the popular “Saufkrug” with its 15 seconds of use time is now for nothing!
In general, Fortnite has only been rubbish for many angry gamers since this new glider mechanic was introduced.
That’s why professionals mostly find the new gliders great
This is what the pros say: For professional players like top gamers Tfue and Cloak from FaZe Clan, Fortnite is currently at the peak of development.
The two have, among others, won the last Fall Skirmish and are considered some of the best players in the world. Their opinion is therefore highly valued.
According to Tfue, there is hardly anything left to improve in Fortnite: “Sure, something can still be improved, but I wouldn’t know what.” The pro seems to appreciate the glider reuse as well.
Myth loves the new mechanic: He is not the only one who thinks the new mechanic is good. For instance, the notorious streamer Myth is a fan of the new gliders.
The game becomes much faster and more aggressive. And opponents who want to escape from him with low hit points can be easily taken down according to the pro with targeted shots.
As a flying opponent, you are much more exposed than when hiding in a fort. However, there are also wicked tongues who claim that Myth likes the gliders because he is known for constantly falling to his death.
Good, but it could be better: Another top player named “Marksman” thinks the gliders in tournaments are great, but in random battles, he shares the concerns of most gamers.
Therefore, he supports limiting glider reuse, for example, by requiring kills before the glider can be reused or by having a limited number of gliders from the start.
What is your opinion on the new gliders in Fortnite?
Since the launch of the Legendary Server of The Lord of the Rings Online on November 8, there have been some interesting reactions. While the servers are generally well received, there is also some criticism.
Is the Legendary Server of the MMORPG LotRO attracting many players? What do fans find good and bad? And what significance does this “Classic” server have for World of Warcraft?
A Great Surge
This is how well the server was received: After the launch of the server “Anor” on November 8, there was a surge of players which led to long queues and lags. However, the studio Standing Stone Games responded quickly and opened the server “Ithil” on the same day.
What players like about the Legendary Server: Many players, especially veterans of LotRO, are pleased with the two “Classic” servers.
The servers provide a gaming experience reminiscent of the MMO’s release.
The moderate progress allows players to enjoy the content without rushing through it.
Additionally, the servers are very well populated, making it easy to find group members.
This is being criticized: The launch of the Legendary Servers was not without criticism:
Apart from connection problems and queues, many are annoyed that despite a subscription, the regular cash shop is still active.
It is still possible to gain an advantage through Mithril Coins despite the subscription.
Loot boxes can also be found on the Legendary Servers.
Furthermore, many wished for a “Vanilla” gaming experience. However, the Legendary Servers do not provide this, as bug fixes and balancing adjustments, as well as new classes, are available from the beginning.
Can Blizzard learn something from the LotRO Classic Server?
What significance does the LotRO Classic Server have for WoW? Blizzard plans to introduce a Classic Server for World of Warcraft. A demo was playable at Blizzcon.
However, Blizzard wants to create a Vanilla experience and present WoW with the Classic Server as it was at release. This differs greatly from the concept of the LotRO Legendary Servers, which are more “Progression” servers.
As seen from the criticism of some LotRO players, many would prefer a Vanilla experience without the adjustments and changes that have been made over the years. This could allow Blizzard to better resonate with the “veterans”. How well this works out will be revealed in the summer of 2019.
