4/30/2023 0 Comments Hold the line gw2![]() You even pick what kind of parents you had. “I am proud to be… a Blood Legion soldier.” Or maybe, if you’re more technologically inclined, you’d rather join the Iron Legion. ![]() In character creation, on top of picking race and class you come up with a Biography, based on which options you pick relating to your backstory and background. GW aims to have some degree of tailored persistence, as well as setting your character up as, well, a character, not a mere avatar. We’ve seen attempts at this in the past, perhaps most notably Conan’s short-lived destiny quests in its earliest levels, but it’s always seemed to peter out because the world in general reflect the actions of thousands of players, not yours specifically. Playing a big part of that is how much the game is geared towards ostensibly solo play, for those who wish to play it that way. I have no doubt for many players it be a game of numbers, but for me, and excitingly, there’s that rich chance it might feel that much more like a world too. Painted stripes rather than brutalist boxes hold key information, while a boss monster that’s hurling giant rocks at players has the destinations of those rocks paintbrushed onto the ground rather than depicted as the traditional glowing circle.Įven if much of the information is familiar information, those two, usually at-odds arms of an MMO – the fantastical world and the overtly gamey way in which you interact with it – seem that much more merged and of one mind. It’s in the cinematics, it’s in the character selection screen –lushly-painted portraits rather than twitching 3D models – and it’s even in the core of the UI. The painterly GW2 concept art we’ve been swooining over for the last half-decade has not been shrugged away and consigned to the hollow fate of a special edition art book, but instead folded into the game proper, all over the place. For Guild Wars 2, there’s a clear interest in it being attractive as well as efficient. For your average or even superior MMO, the main design focus of a UI appears to be how to present an awful lot of information as unfussily and tidily as possible. Here’s why.įirst up, there’s the interface. I still don’t know how much of what it’s trying to do will be practicable and effective over long-term play, but seeing it took me back to a time before my awful genre ennui, back to when every time I sat down to see a new MMO my mood was excitement, not cynicism. My most recent sighting of Guild Wars 2 really did break through that numbness, made me sit up straight and pay full attention. Too often, I feel a numbness, a struggle to reconcile professionally wanting to know what's going on with personally despairing of the idea of giving over dozens of hours of my life to what's so often a mess of cloned features and over-sold, under-realised promises. ![]() ![]() I smile back politely, and the same old dance begins. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve walked into a room with a monitor and a nervously-smiling man at one end and been told I’m about to see the future of MMOs. ![]() 4/30/2023 0 Comments Moving up in the world tonight![]() Those located from Thailand to the Philippines will see that occultation in a darker sky on Friday evening. Observers located along a zone stretching across southern and eastern Africa, Madagascar, the southeastern Arabian Peninsula, India, Pakistan, and the southern half of Asia can see the moon occult Venus during mid-day on Friday. Sometimes called the Ashen Glow or the Old Moon in the New Moon’s Arms, the phenomenon is visible within a day or two of new moon, when sunlight reflected off Earth and back toward the moon slightly brightens the unlit portion of the moon’s Earth-facing hemisphere. On Thursday, March 23, the very slender crescent of the young moon will resemble the Cheshire Cat’s smile when it shines below Venus and above Jupiter – setting up a wonderful widefield photo opportunity in the western sky after sunset on both Thursday and Friday. Thursday, March 9 - Evening Zodiacal Light (after dusk) When fully illuminated, the moon’s surface geology is enhanced, especially the contrast between the ancient cratered highlands and the younger smoother maria. Full moons always rise in the east as the sun sets, and set in the west at sunrise. The Cherokee call it Anvyi, the “Windy Moon”, when the planting cycle begins anew. The Cree of North America call it Mikisiwipisim, the “the Eagle Moon” - the month when the eagle returns. For them it signifies a time to balance their lives and to celebrate the new year. The indigenous Ojibwe people of the Great Lakes region call this full moon Ziissbaakdoke-giizis “Sugar Moon” or Onaabani-giizis, the “Hard Crust on the Snow Moon”. The March full moon, known as the Worm Moon, Crow Moon, Sap Moon or Lenten Moon, always shines in or near the stars of Leo or Virgo. PST, or 12:40 GMT, it will appear full in the Americas on both Monday night and Tuesday night. Monday, March 6 - Sirius Sparkles like a Diamond (all night)īecause the moon’s full phase will occur on Tuesday, March 7 at 8:40 a.m. Toward midnight, the mare will swing toward the bottom of the moon. In evening, Mare Australe will be on the moon’s right-hand edge. Between them, look for the similar dark craters Brisbane Z and E and the large, lighter grey crater Lyot. The northern and southern boundaries of the mare are dominated by the isolated dark ovals of the craters Oken and Hanno, respectively. Together they comprise Mare Australe, the Southern Sea. For several nights surrounding Saturday, March 4, the moon’s brightly lit southeastern limb will be rotated toward Earth, revealing a collection of dark patches that can be seen in a backyard telescope. Over time, this lunar libration effect lets us see 59% of the moon’s total surface without leaving the Earth. Saturday, March 4 - Lunar Libration Shows Elusive Edge Features (all night)ĭue to the moon’s orbital inclination and ellipticity, it nods up-and-down and sways left-to-right by up to 7 degrees while keeping the same hemisphere pointed towards Earth. ![]() ![]() In a backyard telescope you can see where the mountains, actually the original crater’s rim, submerge below the basalts, forming the promontories named Laplace (the northern tip) and Heraclides (the southern tip). ![]() Sinus Iridum is almost craterless, but hosts a set of northeasterly-oriented wrinkle ridges that are revealed at this phase. A clair-obscur effect named the Golden Handle is produced when the low-angled sunlight along the terminator brightens the eastern side of the prominent Montes Jura mountain range surrounding Sinus Iridum on the north and west. ![]() That semi-circular feature, 155 miles (249 km) in diameter, is a large impact crater that has been flooded by the same basalts that filled the much larger Mare Imbrium to its east – forming a round bay on the western edge of the mare. On Friday night, March 3, the terminator on the waxing gibbous moon will fall just west of Sinus Iridum, the Bay of Rainbows.

The readers of the Sounds magazine voted Hanoi Rocks as the second best band in the world just after Marillion. In 1984, Michael Monroe and Hanoi Rocks were among the most popular performers in the UK. The album has been cited as one of the best glam rock albums, and Monroe has said that he "is very proud of it." The original title of the album was "Silver Missiles and Nightingales", but this was changed before release. In 1984, the band got together with legendary producer Bob Ezrin and started work on their fifth studio album Two Steps from the Move which was their first recording deal to US markets. The next year, 1983, the band released Back to Mystery City. The tour for the album took the band to Asia for the first time. Later that year, the band released Self Destruction Blues, which had Razzle on the cover, but he didn't play on the album because it was actually a compilation of old singles. ![]() The band has said that Razzle revitalised them. This line-up, consisting of Michael Monroe, Andy McCoy, Nasty Suicide, Sam Yaffa and Razzle, has often been cited as the classic and definitive line-up. In 1982 Hanoi Rocks moved to London and released their second studio album Oriental Beat, which the band later dismissed as a failure, stating that the album was mixed badly by the producer Pete Woolcroft.Īfter the album's release, the band fired drummer Gyp Casino and hired Nicholas Dingley, better known as Razzle. The album was produced by Andy McCoy and Michael Monroe, who were known as "The Muddy Twins". The band released their first album in 1981 titled Bangkok Shocks, Saigon Shakes, Hanoi Rocks, with most of the songs written by McCoy. The band later recruited drummer Gyp Casino. McCoy also brought bassist Sam Yaffa with him. Andy McCoy left Pelle Miljoona Oy and joined Hanoi Rocks in 1980. From the very first Hanoi line-up only one member (besides Monroe) remained, rhythm guitarist Nasty Suicide, who would stay in the band until 1985. Hanoi Rocks was a band that Monroe and his friend, guitarist Andy McCoy had thought of, but because McCoy was in the Finnish punk band Pelle Miljoona Oy, he told Monroe to start the band without him. Monroe auditioned as a bassist for Pelle Miljoona Oy but, even though the audition went well, they chose bassist Sami Yaffa. Monroe then went on to play saxophone in Maukka Perusjätkä's band, where he also met guitarist Nasty Suicide. Later, Monroe and McCoy played together for a short time in a band called Bolin. During this time, while rehearsing in a basement of a church in Töölö, Monroe met guitarist Andy McCoy (then known as Antti Hulkko) McCoy's band, Briard, was also rehearsing there at the time. From 1976 to 1979, Monroe played in a band called Madness. Some other favourite bands of Monroe's at the time included: Alice Cooper, The New York Dolls, Led Zeppelin, Creedence Clearwater Revival, and Little Richard. Monroe states in the Hanoi Rocks autobiography All Those Wasted Years that one of the first times he was exposed to rock n' roll was when he saw Black Sabbath's 1970 Paris performance on television. His father, Pentti Fagerholm (1935–2015), was a very well known Finnish radio personality and reporter. Michael Monroe was born Matti "Makke" Fagerholm on 17 June 1962. ![]() 4/30/2023 0 Comments Dynasty warriors gundam 3 gamefaqs![]() ![]() Continued abuse of our services will cause your IP address to be blocked indefinitely.

4/30/2023 0 Comments Unbeatable th6 war base![]() ![]() Hybrid Base: This TH6 base here makes troop walk around the base a lot and there are so many attackers out there that simply can’t execute their attack in a way to actually break into the base to make it worth using because every defense you have where you won’t lose your resources will give you a cheap shield and let you attack a couple of times. ![]() In the center you have the traps and with all the empty spaces it’s impossible for the attacker to guess where the traps are so they will strike with full force. You have the storages and all the other buildings on the outside and this will slow down the attack because the attacker needs to clear them before starting the main attack for the center of your base. War Base: This is the best war base for Town hall 6 I had used in a long time and it works really well preventing other TH6s to 3-Star you. Town Hall 6 Bases – January 2020ġx Balloon *Link expired* *Link expired* *Link expired* Normally the attacker uses Wall Breaker and the compartments on the edges will attract them to not open the inner compartments where Giants will get stuck and your defenses can take them down.Īlso the traps in the center are really effective as troops will be grouped up there so the Spring Traps will take out as many as possible. I really like this Town Hall 6 base here for trophy pushing but also for protecting resources as well, a real hybrid base setup that works really well, especially against Giant/Healer combinations as they have trouble getting into the base. Town Hall 6 Bases – February 2020Ĥx Archer *Link expired* *Link expired* *Link expired* Advertisements Works well to guide Giants away from the center and with solid Clan Castle troops you will see great results with this war base. Actually your job in Clan War as a Town Hall 6 is to force the higher Town Halls to attack your base because the other Town Hall 6s failed to 3-Star you. War Base: Here we have a TH6 war base that did perform quite well for the last wars tested and you will also give any TH6 attacker a hard time – of course, if there’s a TH7 or higher hitting your base with mass Dragons and crazy Clan Castle troops you can’t prevent the 3-Star but that’s not your job. If someone comes in with mass Dragons or hits with a higher Town Hall there’s not much you can do but against Giants this base works really well with the perimeter buildings messing with the attackers troops to really go into the base and this will prevent major damage. Most attacks at TH6 are with Giants and mixed ground troops and those are the attacks you want to defend. You could use it for Clan War but I rather recommend using one of the war bases there instead to really protect without minding your storages (Clan War will not let you lose any loot). Trophy Base: Here’s a nice hybrid base for Town Hall 6 that allows you to keep your resources protected at some degree as well as your trophies. Town Hall 6 Bases – March 2020Ĥx Archer *Link expired* *Link expired* *Link expired* It looks like the storages are easy to get but getting all of them is pretty hard because they are still protected by the splash defenses and simply sniping is hard because the attacker needs to clear the outside trash buildings as well, so you can also use this base when you’re farming as well. ![]() YOu have an outside perimeter protecting the outside compartments that are pretty small so ground attacks have to break through multiple ones while the storages will slow down attacking troops here as well. ![]() This is an interesting base layout for Town Hall 6 here and can be used for almost all causes (except core heavy resource protection, more on that below…) and works really well. Town Hall 6 Bases – August 15th, 2020ģx Archer *Link expired* *Link expired* *Link expired* Trophy Base – ring style compartments with a perimeter that holds the storages will motivate attackers to give you a cheap shield by taking some resources and not going all the way against your base.įarming Base – this farming base protects your resources as well as possible by having them as much inside of the base as possible. Trap placement makes this really effective. War Base – this ring-style inspired base works really well keeping attackers away from the core so there’s no easy 3-Star from another TH6 against this base. Don’t use it anymore… CC Troops:ģx Archer *Link expired* *Link expired* *Link expired* Advertisements This base got popular so people developed a strategy against it.

While that group has attempted to pick the games they felt the community would most want to see on Steam, we knew there had to be a better way." Developers had to convince people to cast their vote: would you buy this game? Yes? Then vote for it on Steam Greenlight. During that time, there's always been a reliance on a group of people to make tough choices on which games to release on Steam. In Valve's own words: "Over the many years that Steam has been selling games, the release rate of games on Steam has continued to grow significantly. It was designed to take the load off, essentially, handing over some of the curation work to its community. In 2012 Valve introduced Steam Greenlight, its idea for dealing with the growing number of developers who wanted to sell their games on Steam. Usually you'd get a few days, because the number of games that launched on Steam was smaller than it is today. The front page defaulted to new releases, so if you launched a game on there you would be guaranteed at least some time on the front page. It was curated, to a large degree, by Valve itself, ensuring a degree of quality control. If discoverability is an issue now, it wasn't a few years ago, when Steam worked in a very different way. I rely a lot on people on my Steam friends list telling me you totally need to play this game or that game. "So it can be very hard for me to discover games. I only picked it up when I went to Rezzed. I missed Maia because it came out right when we were releasing DayZ. ![]() So, I do find it frustrating because I'm super lazy and I miss stuff. "This is probably over the last few months the most talked about conversation I've had with developers. "This is something everyone has been talking about a lot," Dean Hall, the brains behind zombie massively multiplayer survival game DayZ - one of the biggest and most enduring hits on Steam - says. A lot of people browse the Steam store looking for something to play, and they see what's hot in the carousel, what's on the top sellers list, or spot a crazy bargain, and go from there.īut what if your new game isn't a "featured item", or doesn't show up in the "top sellers" list, or isn't on sale? Then there's a good chance it won't be displayed on the front page of Steam. You'll search for it in the Steam search box if it isn't displayed prominently on the Steam home page. If a new games comes out and you know you want it (perhaps you read a review on Eurogamer, because you're good like that), you'll seek that game out. There are a number of other sections below "featured items", including "recently updated", but the one we're interested in is the one the Steam front page defaults to: the "top sellers" list - a chart of the best-selling games on Steam at any given time. "When you're on that banner it's a big deal." Steam Featured Items. "I get as excited being on that banner as I do funding the Kickstarters," Brian Fargo, boss of Wasteland 2 developer inXile, tells me. Getting on the carousel can have a big impact on sales, developers tell us. At the time of writing Divinity: Original Sin, Firefall, Dungeon Defenders Eternity, Sacred 3, Unturned, ArcheAge, Robocraft, Trails in the Sky, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive update Operation Breakout, Pixel Piracy and Dark Souls 2 DLC Crown of the Sunken King are featured items. With so many games available, how will new games be discovered by Steam's 75 million strong audience?Ĭurrently (that's an important word - Valve often tweaks the way Steam works), when you load up the Steam front page it presents you with an image-based carousel of "featured items". What could possibly be the problem with a service that is as close as we've got to a video game library?įor some developers - and, to an extent publishers - the problem is one of discoverability. ![]() You even find games that aren't finished yet. And within that catalogue you find pretty much every type of game there is, from big budget shooters made by hundreds of people to experimental games made by just one person. The Steam game catalogue bulges with over 3500 titles. It seems counter-intuitive to say it, but Steam, the biggest and most popular digital video game shop we have, may be selling too many games - or rather, it may be selling too many of the wrong kind of games. ![]() 4/30/2023 0 Comments Gamefaqs wiki tab![]() ![]() Continued abuse of our services will cause your IP address to be blocked indefinitely. ![]() Please fill out the CAPTCHA below and then click the button to indicate that you agree to these terms.

On its lower side, your stomach is narrower, with thicker muscular walls. While the chyme is being mixed at the top of the stomach, while our small protein loses its 3D shapes and even starts to break apart, losing some of its peptide bonds, the wave of contraction reaches the bottom of the stomach. Overall in the digestion process, pepsin accounts for 10-20% of protein digestion 2, 3. Pepsin starts to break down peptide bonds between amino acids 2, 6, creating smaller and smaller polypeptides. Interestingly enough, once pepsin is activated, it also acts as an autocatalyzer, an accelerator, on pepsinogen conversion 2, 5! Leading to an even faster activation rate of pepsin! Like other proteins, it will end up being digested. In presence of hydrogen ions, as soon as pH is below 6, pepsinogen loses a short series of amino acids and becomes the active protease pepsin. This is because pepsinogen is also a protein, hence its 3D structure is also sensitive to pH. While flowing into the stomach, while being mixed with the acidic chyme, pepsinogen undergoes a transformation. Precisely, in the gastric pits, another kind of cell, the chief cells, have also added to the gastric juice a precursor of a protease, pepsinogen. This is because acidity disrupts the weak hydrogen bonds that maintain the protein folded 1.Īt this stage, however, amino acid chains are still intact, as pH does not break the strong peptide bonds between amino acids (most of the time) 1.īut, this unfolding already makes protein much more vulnerable to protease attacks ! It mixes the bolus with gastric juice, creating a mixture called chyme, where hydrogen ions and enzymes diffuse evenly around proteins 2.īeing now soaked into the chyme, under such a strong acidity, our small protein starts to denature, meaning that it begins to lose its 3D structure. These waves of contraction, called peristalsis, move at a speed of about 1 cm per second 2.Īt the top of the stomach, the contraction wave has a churning effect. When the bolus that you propelled into your esophagus lands in the stomach, it discovers a strange cavity whose walls are slowly contracting in waves traveling from top to down. Yes, you really have hydrochloric acid in your stomach! The release of this very acidic juice by the gastric pits strengthens the acidity in the stomach to about pH 2 3, 5. ![]() Hidden in these pits are cells, the parietal cells 2– 4, that secrete a digestive juice, the gastric juice.Īmong other components, this juice contains hydrogen ions and chloride ions, that is, hydrochloric acid. ![]() The walls of the stomach contain small indentations, called gastric pits. ![]() Instead, they play a role in regulating the blood flow in the salivary glands 2.Įventually, this mechanical action of chewing with your teeth and mixing with your tongue creates a mixture called the bolus, which you propel to the esophagus when swallowing.īut even before you swallow, your stomach is already diligently preparing for the next step. Yet, saliva does contain proteases, that is, enzymes that break down proteins.īut these proteases, called kallikreins are not directly involved in the digestion process of protein. ![]() In contrast, big chunks of entangled proteins, whose peptide bonds are difficult to reach by enzymes, are more difficult to digest. So, if protein structure is not affected by mastication and mixing, why are we saying that protein digestion starts in the mouth?īecause when food fragments are small and coated with saliva, they are easily moved down by your esophagus, your stomach processes them more efficiently, and their surface area in contact with enzymes is much greater 2.Ĭhewing proteins is thus an important step that prepares for the chemical digestion process later in the stomach and small intestine. Nor does it break the weaker bonds, such as hydrogen bonds 1, that maintain the protein chain folded in secondary and even tertiary 3D structures. It does not break the peptide bonds 1, the strong linkages between amino acids, that create the chain of amino acids called the primary structure of the protein. But this mechanical breakdown does not affect the molecular structure of the proteins. ![]() |
