Games like outward4/2/2023 ![]() Once, a mysterious stranger rescued me and gave me something to eat and drink. ![]() I lost most of my stuff and had to sneak or fight my way out of there in my weakened state. I died a few times in the wild, and I was held captive in a bandit camp. Everything, even money, has weight, so you may have to run back to store your items or leave something on the ground.Īs I mentioned, I had plenty of chances to explore the death mechanic in Outward. I found myself dropping my pack a few times, before attacking and picking it up again after I was done. You can be over encumbered, and it does slow you down. ![]() It’s also bulky and keeps you from dodging those surprise attacks. A bigger pack will let you carry more and gives you more options. Outward has a different take on your backpack as well. You can crouch and sneak, but an unwary traveler will be subject to surprise attacks or be overwhelmed if you don’t take the time to watch your opponents. Running away is a viable strategy as long as you are aware of your surroundings. The animals may run away, but they can and will return or follow you when you try to escape. This type of behavior continued in other areas as well. I didn’t notice that the hyena had returned and jumped back into the fight. I fought with the bandit and tried whittling his health down, blocking and circling for a chance to strike. I waited and watched the health bars decrease and decided to jump into the fight after a hyena ran away. As an opportunist, I realized this was my chance to swoop in and kill the weakened winner. Skills have a cool down, and are extremely powerful. Like everything in Outward, combat is strategic. Even the fluffy giant chicken monster ended my life. Don’t just try to kill a monster with a machete by blindly button mashing. I initially skipped the tutorial, and that was a mistake. These moments surprised me, and I hope more of these will be in the final game. I did, but it was friendly and helped me. This leads to a real feeling of discovery when I found a cave and thought I would find a horrible monster. Just like the real world, I was lost more than a few times.įurther, not everything is on the map. You will need to use the local landmarks to figure out your location. If you open the map, you’ll see another way the game makes you responsible for your own destiny. You are a regular person with problems.Īfter looting my own home and feeling good about exploring the world, I went out the gate and picked a direction to start walking. Once again, you are not an epic champion plucked out of obscurity by some old guy who mentors you to greatness. After going home, you learn that you owe some money, and this needs to be repaid soon, or else you lose your house. After an extremely bare bones character creator, you discover that you have just survived a shipwreck. Some areas will be hot or cold, and you need the right clothes to keep from turning into a popsicle or cooking in your own juices.Ĭollecting items, improving your materials, and making money are going to be the keys to survival, and the game doesn’t pull its punches. It’s not always about the fanciest armor. The town has places you can buy recipes for this as well, and your starting clothes aren’t that great for stopping an attack. Metals can be mined as you find a vein, and skins provide some leather. Feeling adventurous? Try combining ingredients until you discover a new recipe. Do you happen to have all the materials you need for a tasty dish except for some salt? You can buy some, or you can harvest some in the wild with a pick axe. There are recipes you can buy or find for all kinds of things. When you are in a town, the kitchen can help you whip up some dishes with different ingredients and different times until it spoils.Ĭooking is a form of crafting, but the overall system is deeper. If you are away from civilization, you can light a campfire and place a cooking pot over it to begin making a meal. If you don’t want to starve to death, it’s time to put on that chef’s hat and cook with tools that you can buy or craft. Durability is a concern, and items will need to be repaired. Just like real food, some of it is more filling than others, and it will spoil over time. Food can be gathered from the local plants or taken from animals you kill. You will have to eat, drink, and sleep as you journey around the world. It’s a different take that really changes how you approach the game. You are just a man or woman who needs some cash, trying to survive in the world like everyone else. You are not the chosen one born under a special star destined to remove an ancient evil from the world. Outward is a fantasy RPG with a couple of twists. Since I did have to preview it on the PC, some things will be different, but the mechanics and ideas will be the same. NOTE: I had the opportunity to preview Outward recently, and I wanted to give you an inside scoop before the game hits the PS4 in March. Mac os x el capitan for pc4/2/2023 ![]() VirtualBox is basically a program, over which you can install and eventually run OS X with Intel-based and Amd processor. The whole process is very simple and clear, you only need to follow the tutorial below step by step to install Mac operating system on Windows PC.īIOS: Enable virtualization in BIOS (VT-x) Usually we only need to install Virtualbox such virtual machines on Windows to run the Mac OS X. Notes now supports everything that iOS 9 Notes can do, but only allows you to view sketches, not make them.OS X El Capitan is indeed a great system developed by Apple so far, it can also be installed inside a Windows PC with some tricks. Photos supports extensions as it does on iOS, allowing such apps as Pixelmator to put part of their toolset right in the image-editing window of Apple Photos. A new mute button also exists in the address bar to kill annoying background audio from videos or ads.Īpple Maps now shows public transport directions. Safari’s now got pinned tabs, which shrink into the left-hand side and persist, which makes web apps such as Twitter a bit more permanent. The same swiping gestures to archive or mark email as read from iOS also work on a touchpad too, although I found moving through mail with keyboard shortcuts easier. Full-screen Mac Mail is now easier to use with compose windows that minimise to the bottom of the screen and stack in tabbed windows. Most of Apple’s built-in apps for OS X have also been tweaked here and there. Laptop users might find a use for it if they’re already using full screen apps. It’s still easy to lose things in multiple spaces, and users with desktops or more than one screen are likely to ignore Split View. Windows 8 or 10, or iPad Air 2 users with iOS 9, will be familiar with Split View. It’s nothing you can’t already do manually or with third-party programs such as Moom, but it hides menus and other unnecessary program features to fill the screen with more of the text or work you’re trying to get done. Drag a window to the top of the screen or hold down the green “maximise” button to organise the windows and drag them on to a new space or on top of a pre-existing one to get going. ![]() Spotlight search can now be moved and enlarged and responds to natural language searches such as “files I worked on in March” or “email I sent to Alex about adblocking” – which sounds great, but in practice just skips out a bit of syntax such as “subject: adblocking”.Įl Capitan improves full-screen window management with Split View, taken straight from iOS, allowing two apps to fill one screen with a resizing line down the middle just like Windows 8. Shake the cursor and it enlarges so you can see it more easily if it’s lost on screen. Photograph: Samuel Gibbs/The Guardianīeyond speed, a few small elements have been improved. Typing out natural language feels a little strange, but mostly does what it is meant to and makes finding files or emails a little easier. MacBook Airs from late 2008 and onwards.It supports machines with at least 2GB of RAM and 8GB of free storage space and in the following models: OS X 10.11 El Capitan is a free update from the Mac App Store released on 30 September. ![]() It’s the first version of any of Apple’s software I have installed that has actually sped up the machine. Those that can and will interact with Metal directly – programs such as Adobe Photoshop or Premier, or games – will see an even greater boost. Apps that use Apple’s core graphics system will benefit without having to do anything. Metal replaces OpenGL and speeds things up. Part of that performance boost is the introduction of Apple’s Metal graphics system, which was first introduced with iOS 8. Photograph: Samuel Gibbs/The GuardianĪpple claims that speed has improved between 1.4 and four times the performance of OS X Yosemite, depending on the task, and in my testing I would say that the figure is about right. Apple Maps gains public transport directions, mirroring iOS 9. Doc holliday dragon spring4/2/2023 ![]() Renalds first busted onto the scene last fall when he shined during the first few weeks of preseason camp, but Brady’s presence allowed Renalds to not rush into being called on to take the field. Naquan Renalds is a 6-foot-2, 192-pound redshirt sophomore from Winter Garden, Florida, that Holliday and the staff have been impressed with in the last year. ![]() However, there are some other young talents Holliday is interested in seeing as the spring moves forward. Obi Obialo and Willie Johnson are the most experienced returning receivers, and Obialo has shown flashes of both the strength, speed and play making ability to move into Brady’s role after catching 42 passes for 505 yards last season. Brady was a receiver that typically attracted two defenders and could also take the top off a defense, which opened up the field for other targets in the passing game. There’s another year under their belt in the system and the quarterbacks have a better understanding of it.”įinding a top target to replace Brady will not be easy after the University of Miami transfer caught 133 passes for 1,944 yards and 17 touchdowns in two seasons with the Thundering Herd. “I like what I’ve seen to this point with some of those young receivers making plays. “I think there are some young players that are starting to develop,” Holliday said. The first two days featured guys flying around and showcasing their athleticism, but the game changes once the pads go on. While Thursday was the lone day in pads, it gave Holliday a chance to see how some of the young receivers have transitioned their abilities and gains in the offseason. Marshall will pick up its spring schedule April 2 with its final day of three spring practices in just shorts before returning to pads April 4 and continuing throughout with a Tuesday-Thursday-Saturday schedule until the spring scrimmage wraps up practice April 27. Please communicate with me so that I can address any concerns or assist you.Thursday’s practice was the last practice for 12 days as Marshall students go on spring break starting Friday and don’t return to school until April 1.

Toyota super long life coolant price4/2/2023 ![]() I read tons about "do not mix green and orange", "do not mix two different colors" as well as tons of "does not matter."Ĭlick to expand.That is absolutely incorrect. So, question, can I just open the engine coolant reservoir and add my Prestone for All vehicles up to the F line when the engine is cold? Is that it? I don't know what color Prestone for All Vehicles is. The color of the fluid in the reservoir is pink. This time the level of fluid was kind of in the middle between F and L. The level of the fluid in my engine coolant reservoir was a little below L when the engine was cold (I had not driven it for 4 days before I checked it.) Then, I drove it like 15 miles and checked it again when the engine was hot. 317 and it shows how to add coolant in p.325) I am sharing this information because I want to make sure I am looking at the right thing? I am "completely" new to cars as I said. I looked at the engine coolant reservoir by following the manual: (item number 11 in p. ![]() I went to Walmart and bought a bottle of Prestone Coolant for All Vehicles 50/50. Someone told me to look at the coolant and add if necessary. The only thing that has been done is oil change. I drove it around 10k miles since I bought it. I looked it up online but there are different ideas and most of the posts are old. I flushed mine with distilled water too.I am completely new to cars. Perhaps you could get 90K miles on subsequent flushes but keep the time limit strict or early. Because of the electrolysis issue I would say 5 years is the superceding maximum. Never trusted those 100K warranties for a good reason. The problem here jerky is that they act like once you hit 90K you've expended the "life time" of the car, get a new one. But just like the spark plugs I wish I changed it at 80K to save the catalytic. I just talked with a Toyota worker and he estimated 90K after the first one. You would almost think then I'll change the fluid every 80K miles including the first one but then it's hard to gauge just how much more the electrolysis actually does go up because of a used auto engine. Perhaps after the first change electrolysis ability goes up. The first time they invented long lasting fluid the problem that came up is electrolysis. Then they say every 50K or 5 yrs afterwards. That's why I'm posting here.:smile:įunny how the first flush is not required until 100K miles. Is my reasoning incorrect? If so, feel free to correct me. The major advantage in my opinion to TSLLC is that it can go longer-but if in reality, it is no better or worse than Valvoline Zerex AV, then there is no reason to pay extra to buy it. I just want to be sure I am comparing apples to apples here. This implies that other coolants of a similar makeup can go that long, as well-which implies that TSLLC is not necessarily longer lasting, than, say, Valvoline Zerex Asian Vehicle coolant. If another type of ethylene-glycol coolant is used, replacement intervals may be different. The replacement intervals for engine coolant recommended in this booklet are based on replacement with Genuine Toyota Super Long-Life Coolant or similar high-quality non-silicate, non-amine, non-borate ethylene-glycol coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology (i.e., a combination of low phosphates and organic acids). Note: Your Toyota is equipped with Genuine Toyota Super Long-Life Coolant. The comment from page 37 of my service manual states the following: The products that advertise going that long typically say you have to flush out the old coolant first. Is this 50,000 mile interval only for a flush, or does this apply to only a drain and fill, of the coolant?Īnd if Toyota is telling us that we can go 50,000 miles on subsequent drain & fills, what do folks here think of that advice? Is that too long? I'm not aware of any other coolant that recommends 5 years on a drain and fill. I see in my owner's manual (2005 Sienna) that I am advised to change the coolant at 50,000 miles (after the first one, at 100K).

Happy house waitinglist4/2/2023 ![]() Meanwhile, with the men away, Caroline organizes the local wives and children to salvage what they can of the wheat, using only their manual labour. Jack has a job as a powder monkey in a quarry, and enables Charles and Jacob to get work there too, where the hard and dangerous work is well paid. As a result, he has to travel away from home to find work and make some money, and meets up with Jack ( Don Knight) and Jacob. In fact, neither version is exactly true to life, as Mary and Laura began going to the Barry Corner School before they left the Big Woods of Wisconsin for Minnesota in 1874.Īnticipating a bumper return from his wheat crop, Charles is devastated when a hail-storm flattens all the crops in the area. Note: There is a similar story in On the Banks of Plum Creek. Then Laura encounters an even greater problem, when all the children have to write an essay for Parents' Day, but when the day comes, she creatively rises to the occasion. ![]() While Caroline has to learn how to deal with Harriet Oleson ( Katherine MacGregor), the rich part-owner of Oleson's Mercantile, Laura learns how to deal with the Olesons' spoiled daughter, Nellie ( Alison Arngrim). Mary and Laura begin their first day of school at Walnut Grove and meet their school teacher, Miss Beadle ( Charlotte Stewart). It also contained the NBCUniversal Television Distribution/ Worldvision Enterprises logos and the sound effects that were designed by Erika Scheimer, Frank Becker, and Davor Rocco. Note: The episode introduced the theme song, by David Rose. At the end, Laura reminisces about her father claiming to have reaped a harvest he did not expect: a harvest of friends. When O'Neill wants to strictly enforce the terms of their deal, threatening the Ingalls' prospects, the businessmen of Walnut Grove, who have seen Charles's willingness to work, come to his aid. Charles copes with his problems until a family picnic in the meadow leads to a serious setback with Charles getting injured after falling out of a tree while attempting to grab their toy kite that got stuck in a branch. Despite the tough long hours of arduous work on top of his own farm work. Then, needing a plough and wheat seeds to make a crop, he has a disappointing first encounter with the Olesons, and makes a tough deal with the feed and seed merchant, Liam O'Neill. The Ingalls family moves to the banks of Plum Creek, near Walnut Grove, Minnesota, and Charles gets a job at Hanson's mill for the lumber to build the 'Little House'.

Gemcraft labyrinth hidden maps4/2/2023 ![]() You have a wizard level that goes up as you complete maps which in turn will increase your mana rate and you can unlock passive traits that can be improved. A Meta Game mechanic in the form of a customizable talisman allows you to boost certain aspects of the game as you find components for it, and said components can be upgraded. The basic gameplay of Gemcraft Chasing Shadows would have been enough for a solid but limited title however the additional mechanics and systems to the game dramatically increase the replayability and options for the player. Your talisman is just one of several systems designed to show meta-game improvementĪs with any TD game, your job is to hold out over X number of waves in order to win and unlock the next field and so on and so forth.Īll this is standard stuff for a TD, but Gemcraft Chasing Shadows takes things further as one of the most customizable TD games I’ve seen. This creates a push and pull as you want to use mana to increase your gems’ grade or set up new defenses, but you don’t want to leave yourself in a position where a stray enemy could kill you. Every action that you can take during a play will cost you mana and whenever an enemy reaches your defense point or orb, will drain your mana based on the strength of the enemy. Mana is both the game’s resource and your health on every map and is earned as you kill enemies. You can also combine gems of various types to create a mixed gem this gem will do more damage but at the cost of weaken special affects due to the gems being distilled. Besides setting up towers, you can place walls down to corral enemies, traps that increase the special affect chance or strength but lower the damage and deal with map specific situations. The grades themselves determine the cost of the gem while progressively raising the attack and affects of said gem. ![]() The different gem types come with a unique affect like poison damage, slowdown, chaining attacks etc, and can be summoned at varying grades. The basics of the game involve slotting magic gems into towers that you either build or come preinstalled on the map. Gemcraft Chasing Shadows from the title screen is obviously the second game in the series and the first one on Steam, but while there is a story present, you don’t need to follow it to enjoy the game.
