![]() I am fairly certain that an expansion to a game would need to pertain to the game itself instead of being considered a proper standalone sequel. ALL of which needs to be actively and openly asked of and thoroughly understood if we all want this game to not just continue, but to actually grow.Īfter I look through the forums some more, since I've been out of the loop of the game for some years, I may open a thread to spark some debate/ideas. Knights of Spiral, or Spiral Knights:Recharged.Īll of my idea storming aside, it really comes down to what the current overseers are both capable, and willing to consider, and whether or not the legal controls are in us the fans favor or not. Instead of Spiral Knights 2, perhaps it could simply be dubbed a new version. Kind of like sticking a brand new computer system in modern cars in to one of those antique cars you have to wind a crank wheel around the back just to get the engine started up. ![]() Mere fundamental Redesigns, rather than trying to make a shiny new piece of machinery mesh and function in an otherwise rusty and essentially alien construct. The best of which are usually only ever available once in a blue moon, while the rest is just out of reach enough that mostīack on subject, I have seen several games in the past even before playing spiral knights whos sequals weren't so much continuations, but reboots. Prize boxes, slightly altered equipment, and cosmetics, level designs and minor variations between new and old enemies/mechanics. Right now the games content is locked in a closed cycle of renamed, retextured, and/or reused ideas. Spiral Knights can now be played on the free-to-play section on Steam.Now making a Spiral knights 2 wouldn't neccessarily be a sequal, but maybe an overhaul of sorts. Spiral Knights is unique because it aims to marry the mechanics of a free-to-play MMO with the sensibilities of retro gaming, being played from a third-person perspective and adopting an art style that draws inspiration from a number of classics like The Legend of Zelda titles. It includes the following: 9,500 worth of Crystal Energy, 5 Mist Tanks, 10 Krogmo Coins, 1 unspecified commemorative artifact, 5 Krogmo Coin Boosters and two pieces of costume, Plasmatech Bombhead Mask and the Plasmatech Demo Suit. In order to celebrate the launch of the new players versus player mechanics, the developers are also introducing a new package that can be bought for real-world money. SEGA and the developers at Three Rings are also saying that all those who compete in player versus player competitions will get the new Spiral Bombhead Mask as a reward for completing their first battle with another gamer. Those coins can then be used to get access to a number of special in-game items that can enhance the experience of playing Spiral Knights. ![]() Here the monsters always stay high up in the stands while the players themselves enter the arena and fight each other, with the victors set to get gold coins from the King Krogmo himself. The fiction of Spiral Knights says that the Coliseum was originally created in order to allow the monsters of the game world to take a break from their hard work of providing tough challenges for gamers. The players versus player battles will take place in the coliseum that a new character called King Krogmo maintains. Video game publisher SEGA has announced that a new game mode has been added to the multiplayer mix between action and role-playing game, allowing players to go up against each other in a series of exciting duels. ![]()

The media and news outlets are downplaying this threat, however, Putin is a filthy murdering piece of garbage he already shot down a Dutch airliner that was passing thru Ukraine, he annexed Crimea, Putin also used chemical weapons against a former Soviet officer that defected to the West and actually used radioactive and chemical substances on British soil, he also has had at least 25 journalists dragged from their homes and executed and basically shot in the head and dumped somewhere, why does anyone think he won’t invade Ukraine and steal, rape and pillage Ukraine? This situation is similar to how the world entered the second world war, the British Prime Minister tried to negotiate with Hitler and of course, Hitler had no intentions of peace at all, and Winston Churchill was right to prepare for war, the same thing is going on here, Putin has no intentions of peace and we would be better off going straight after him. If anyone has noticed not only has there been a military build up in Ukraine, but also Kim Jong Un has been testing missiles as well, and also the Iranian backed militias launched missiles into Israel as well, if this next war happens it will be NATO alliance against, Russian, North Korea, China, Cuba, Vietnam, and other communist countries. Now that the Russians are on the line of scrimmage in Ukraine, I would advise everyone to make sure they are ready in case the stuff hits the fans and Putin decides to start World War III. The DEFCON conditions are typically kept classified until after the fact. Each unit designates personnel, weapons, and equipment which will be the first to go. As military personnel, we’re trained to always remain ready for deployment. Our DEFCON readiness is an important part of military operations. The last time the military was at DEFCON 1 was during the Gulf War crisis. There is a chance of the United States or our allies being targeted by nuclear weapons. At this level, military personnel begin to deploy. This condition carries a significant risk of major military operations against the United States or our allies.Īs this is the most severe level of readiness, all military personnel are kept ready for immediate action. ![]() An increase to level 2 is very serious, and all combat units must be ready to deploy within 6 hours. This level of severity is just below the maximum. DEFCON 3 corresponds to situations where there is a possibility of military action against the U. Commanders may order all their personnel to remain on base. ![]() This condition also requires all military personnel to stay within fifty miles of their operating base. All Air Force essential personnel remain on base and are ready to mobilize and deploy. Base operations are changed significantly, with added security personnel. There is also an increased number of personnel added to guard certain areas that would not be manned during level 5.Īt this level in military readiness, The Air Force is ready to mobilize in 15 minutes. During DEFCON 4 there is an increase of personnel on guard during night and day, as well as random searches of vehicles coming onto base. This level of defense, like all others, remains until changed by the Department of Defense.Īs the next level of severity, there are increased intelligence gathering and security measures. Security operations resume with ID checks for all personnel entering any military base. This means that military training and operations continue as normal. The normal level of peacetime readiness, DEFCON 5 serves as the baseline for the military. As of this moment our current military status is DEFCON 4. ![]() The DEFCON system prescribes graduated levels of readiness and states of alert and increases from levels of least to most severe. The defense readiness condition (DEFCON) is an alert system used by the military United States. If you haven’t seen it check it out, its an oldie but a goodie. When I think of defcon levels I always think of the 1983 movie War Games. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The gameplay had the potential to be extremely fun and, when combined with the dialogue, extremely entertaining. ![]() There are sub-quests to play in order to gain the ability to hold more potions and other bonuses, and they can be a welcome distraction to the main game, but it’s really just more arena combat. Flying a dragon and hurling fire should be awesome, not as clumsy and unfulfilling as it is here. Mikhail’s handling is very choppy and not easy to control, and ended up being a frustrating lowlight of the game instead of an easy win for gameplay. Their dialogue gets pretty risqué and is occasionally amusing, but they are next to useless as fighting companions. While there are NPCs in the game to help you, their job seems to be to provide atmosphere and fill in the back story. There is no balletic skill or grace to the game for me, it came down to button mashing at the right time. Most of the time, a simple combination of hitting and dodging will clear away the largest group of enemies. Even using the lock-on (which uses the strangest logic to select the most viable target) doesn’t help with the camera. I found that the in-game camera couldn’t cope with the frenetic action a lot of the time, an automatic zoom out would have made the fights more manageable but most of the time you’re reduced to simply hitting and hoping. There’s also a special power you can activate once you kill enough enemies which really is quite spectacular and fun to use. There are different weapons that allow varying methods of attack and for certain enemies only a certain weapon will do, and you can upgrade or buy more powerful weapons as you progress. You sometimes take to the skies on the dragon Mikhail to fight as well, again usually a fairly large sized boss of some description. On occasion there will be a huge enemy to tackle. You’ll get to an arena, where the doors will close behind you and you’ll be forced to face a larger collection of enemies, who you kill before you move on. You run down (or up) a large “corridor” killing people as you go. This game is so frustrating because it has the potential to be a lot of fun, but for most of it, it just doesn’t quite hit the spot. This is primarily to allow a change in scenery, though even with such extreme environments, the arenas and areas you battle in are fairly uninspiring. You travel between lands to hunt down your sisters, who are based everywhere from a temple on the sea to the harsh sands of a desert, to the forests and the snowy mountains. She spends most of her time telling everyone else how much she doesn’t like them, but usually with much harsher language. Zero doesn’t seem to be fond of anyone at all. During the game you encounter several NPCs who will join your group to assist you. She is joined by a juvenile Dragon, Mikhail, who she actively despises. In fact, you have to journey quite far into the game before it’s even revealed to you. It’s never really made clear from the outset why Zero wants to slaughter her relatives. Intoners were songstresses who battled evil and brought peace to the world, and because of this and a flower, Zero wants her sisters dead. The story follows Zero, one of six sisters who are “intoners”. This game is set one hundred years before the previous Drakengard games, so acts as a prequel. It’s been ten years since we last dipped into the Drakengard world, though to be fair, having no knowledge of the previous games will not be a disadvantage (though there was quite the demand for this to be given a release over here in the West). No, this is about swords and fighting and blood and fighting and dragons and hatred and fighting. This is no petty argument in the kitchen after what someone said about our Susan. The story of Drakengard 3 is about sibling rivalry taken to an extreme level. ![]() ![]() ![]() Too often, it was used to facilitate jump scares, which are fine in moderation. Although this did not bother me, I do have one gripe with the sound design. I felt like music was barely present in this game, only being included in the most intense moments. It certainly isn’t a style every game can pull off, but it fits DARQ perfectly.Īs far as sound goes, there isn’t really much to say. The levels require just the right amount to backtracking and take you through a number of different locations.ĭespite the black and white graphics, I never found myself getting bored with them or wishing for anything else. Obviously, as it is a puzzle game, it needs well-designed environments that can harbor puzzles. The level design is equally as impressive. The game is black and white and uses lighting extremely well to create environments that are both mysterious and terrifying. If you haven’t, the best words I can use to describe them are cartooney and dark. If you have seen any Time Burton films, then you know exactly what you’ll be getting with this game. ![]() The graphics are another area where the game really shines. This portion of the game, had it been implemented better, could have been used to create an even scarier environment. The monsters move extremely slow and there is no real strategy to avoiding them. While these portions may sound enjoyable, I found them to be quite boring. ![]() There are also some stealth sections, where you have to avoid the various monsters that inhabit your nightmares. These puzzles were enjoyable and stopped the exploration of the map from getting old. These items can be retrieved by exploring the map, which often requires other items, or completing some small puzzles. The end goal of every level is to escape the nightmare by gathering a particular set of items. I understand that this adds to the mysterious and uncomfortable tone of the game, but I found it more annoying than anything else.Īs I mentioned, the puzzles in DARQ are some of the best I have experienced. I didn’t even realize that I could sprint until I opened the controls menu halfway through the game. Sure, I figured them out by mashing my controller, but I wish I had simply been introduced to them. I did find it strange that the game doesn’t appear to offer any sort of introduction to the controls. I had to think and try out different strategies but never felt like I was stuck. However, I felt the puzzles in DARQ were just the right difficulty. Instead of having fun, they usually just make me feel frustrated and dumb. I haven’t played all that many puzzle games and I can’t say they typically grab my attention. The difficulty of this game was something I really enjoyed. By utilizing this ability, you are able to solve a number of inventive puzzles that make you think. As you are in a nightmare world, you possess strange abilities, which allow you to walk on walls and ceilings. The gameplay was a treat, and I found myself getting lost in the game as a result. I would have loved it if these could have continued the narrative in some way. Maybe I’m missing something, but it seems these stages were included just to give players some additional puzzles to mess around with. While I thoroughly enjoyed playing through these, I felt they contributed nothing to the overall story. This would normally irk me as lazy game design, but the developers have included enough details to allow players to craft a coherent narrative.Īs this is the complete edition, the game includes both the DLC levels that were previously released. Rather, the game tasks players with crafting their own story by leaving many details up for interpretation. There isn’t much that is overtly mentioned. The above description is the best way I have found to describe the story of DARQ. This is the life of Lloyd, the protagonist in the wonderfully crafted puzzle game, DARQ: Complete Edition. Imagine constantly being tormented by never-ending and ever-worsening nightmares. ![]() ![]() ![]() What’s more, the salon is not really about us-it’s about our clients.” Mèche is also about unrivaled talent. “Tracey and I are on the floor every day we’re open, and between the two of us, we see anywhere from 200 to 300 clients a week. “So many of LA’s top stylists have opened eponymous salons, but they’re constantly on the go, and that’s where Mèche is different,” Neil said. ![]() “When it comes to running a salon, we make a perfect team.”įrench for “a highlight” or “a lock of hair,” the word mêche offers a nod to the history of the location, which housed the legendary Menage a Trois salon decades ago-and, more importantly, it signifies a new era for Beverly Hills salons and current hairstyles. “Neil and I are old friends-and our strengths are complementary,” Tracey remarked. But the long-standing friendship that would ultimately lead the duo back to one another to unveil Mèche found its roots in the late 1990s, when they were burgeoning young talents at West Hollywood’s Art Luna salon. Is it any wonder that two of the most recognizable names in the industry have joined forces to introduce LA’s premier full service salon? It was less than a decade ago that Tracey Cunningham-now one of the world’s most sought-after celebrity colorists- worked for Neil Weisberg at his former namesake salon. ![]() ![]() ![]() The start of each lap is essential to a good 1lap. Still the only person to sub the 2 minute mark, this track is near to be fully optimized, considering I started improving this track with a 1:59:51. I will eventually get to a full game speedrun sometime in the future, but until then, I will continue to optimize Time Race as much as humanly possible. I still need to improve a couple tracks to fully optimize them. Powersliding to get around sharp corners and a well timed warp will place you in the right spot to finish the lap in a faster time. Two of the most important strategies to getting good times in Time Race are the powerslide and warping. You will be boosting for all of the tracks, with some additions like using the shield on Magma Moon Marathon, or using the cannonball to open the shortcut on Desert Adventure Dragway. ![]() Time Race is different than Circuit or Single Race mode in the fact that the majority of the white and colored bricks have been reshuffled. :) But the most important part is Time Race mode. Getting a suge back into racing as of late, LEGO Racers has been a fun title to constantly beat Rocket Racer in. Legitimately, of course.Ī strange case, though, is the fact that I've only been competitive in fictional-like racing games, like Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, Crash Tag Team Racing, and LEGO Racers. Racing games has always been my best genre of gaming, as I love the speed and precision to get around any track in the fast time. I'm not one, generally, to speedrun anything at least, a whole game. Hi, I'm Greycatmon, former Sonic Riders World Champion and Ampharos Enthusiast. I always seem to be finding a new retro game from my childhood to suddenly get serious about and do well in. However, I am extremely happy with this run, which ended up less than 40 seconds off my sum of best splits. The run suffered from a bit of bad RNG (which can be expected from every run) and nerves near the end, so it is not perfect. The tracks I perform the glitch on are Dark Forest Dash, Magma Moon Marathon, Desert Adventure Dragway, Tribal Island Trail, Pirate Skull Pass, and Adventure Temple Trial (both normal and mirrored).Īs for the run itself, as I said earlier, sub-40 is a goal I've had for a long time. However, this is not optimal on every track, as the required checkpoints are so spread out on some that it takes longer to do the glitched route than it does to do the track normally. On several tracks, the required checkpoints are close enough together than you can just drive up and down one stretch of track 3 times and win the race in 30 seconds. ![]() However, you don't actually have to drive through them all in this game. Each track is made up of several invisible checkpoints, and when you drive through them in order and cross the finish line, it counts as a lap. The second strategy is to simply not do the entire track. Also, the last race has so many variations for NPC behavior that the entire race is pretty much a big free-for-all, so I do my best to pick up as many warps as I can there. I have a specific strategy to maximize warps on every track, but RNG plays a role in how well I can pull off these strategies NPC's will often pick up white bricks I need, or exchange green bricks with powerups that don't help me. You can only carry up to 3 white bricks at a time, but there is a small trick with warping that lets pick up a white brick during the warp entry animation, right after you use up all 3 white bricks (I do this twice in the first race). Each warp alone cuts approximately 5-10 seconds off my time. You obtain a warp by collecting a green brick (aka turbo powerup) and 3 white bricks (which are basically powerup upgrades). The first is to simply maximize the number of warps I obtain/use in each race. There are two main strategies to running this game. After running this game on and off, I finally managed to reach that time. I've been running this game for quite a while, and it's been about a year since anyone mentioned a sub-40 minute time. ![]() ![]() On behalf of everyone on the team, thank you.

You can use it on as many devices as you like, and all extensions are available, except for the MS Office and Google Docs add-ons. You have basic grammar, punctuation, and style checking for up to 10,000 characters per text, which should be enough for most people. The service's free plan is quite generous. OpenOffice and LibreOffice are also available, but they require Java and are not available for the premium version at present. What's more, LanguageTool offers add-ins for Microsoft Office and Google Docs, which are very easy to set up.
