League of Legends is no stranger to bugs and errors. Some of them happen without warning when players are just trying to have fun.

You can reload the client, restart your computer, and do a bunch of stuff but the game will never load.

Any new adventurer to New World‘s world of Aeternum will feel the allure of mining ore veins once they see their first iron ore vein protruding from the ground. With a pickaxe equipped, that iron can become yours, letting you take the first step towards crafting a number of different goods with the game’s robust trade skill system. But before you use that iron—or any other metal—to make new tools, weapons, gear, or pretty much anything else, you’ll need to smelt it first.

A new akimbo shotgun loadout has been making the rounds in Call of Duty: Warzone thanks to some viral social media posts—and it’s terrifying. Dual-wielded shotguns have been terrorizing online games for years, with the latest kind reminiscent of the Ranger shotgun from Modern Warfare 2. Call of Duty: Vanguard’s Double Barrel shotgun can be quite Ranger-like with the right set of attachments. Not only that, but Vanguard’s ridiculous 10-attachment Gunsmith setup means that you can add Incendiary rounds, which will burn your enemies and deal damage over time while you reload two rounds into each gun’s chamber.
