All power banks and smartphones support the USB BC 1.2 standard, which can deliver up to 7.5W over USB-A or 15W over USB-C. At those speeds, even a high-capacity charger can recharge fully in three to four hours.Īs for charging your devices, you’ll usually have a choice of USB-A and USB-C ports, with the latter supporting the fastest USB PD charging standards. This means your power bank will often recharge faster when connected to a suitable fast charger, at anywhere from 20W to 60W. One advantage of this shift to USB-C is that power banks now support USB PD for faster charging. Don’t worry if you don’t have the required cable, as one will usually be provided in the box. Most power banks now use a USB-C port to recharge, although some models will have a micro-USB port as well to ensure compatibility with older chargers. The advantage is that you’ll be able to top up multiple devices, often simultaneously, and you’ll have enough charge to keep them going for a whole weekend or even longer. USB-C with Quick Charge 4 and USB-PD will be a given, making up for the fact that you’re carrying a heavier brick of a charger. Splash out more than £30 and you can bag an even bigger power bank, with capacities starting out at 20,000mAh and going all the way up to 26,800mAh or more. However, you’ll also have much faster charging, with Quick Charge 4 and USB PD. You may get an increase in size and weight to match 20,000mAh batteries can be roughly the size of a big-screen smartphone, but they’re also a good 50% heavier. Spend £18 to £30 and you’re looking at power banks with a 10,000-20,000mAh capacity and better connectivity, with USB-C connections now pretty much standard. At the upper end of this range, though, you’ll have sufficient capacity to recharge your phone or give a tablet a decent boost – and you can find one the size of a smartphone or a Mars Bar for around £12 to £18. These days we’d avoid anything below 5,000mAh, as it won’t have enough charge to refuel most recent smartphones. The cheapest and smallest power banks will have a capacity of between 2,500mAh and 10,000mAh. The rules are simple enough: the less you spend, the lower the capacity and the slower the power bank will charge. How to choose the best power bank or charger for you What kind of power bank should I buy?īasically, you’re trying to balance four factors: size, speed, capacity and price. We’ll run you through the different specs and what to look for, then point you towards the best power banks on the market. With so many brands and models to choose from, which one should you buy? We’re here to help. Tablets, digital cameras and Bluetooth speakers can often do with a top-up, and a decent power bank is a must-have accessory if you love playing on a Nintendo Switch. And it’s not only smartphones that can benefit. In fact, with bigger power banks, you can get away for a weekend or go camping and still keep your phone juiced up. With a power bank, though, you can always get a recharge – even when you’re far from home. And while we’ve seen some superb long-life smartphones recently, you can still find you’re running out of charge before you can get near a socket, especially if you’re playing games or streaming video. Screens keep getting bigger and processors more powerful, but if there’s one thing that doesn’t seem to improve with today’s mobile devices, it’s the battery’s ability to last the whole day.

And this is a courtesy extended to random bits of advertising, signs in the crowd, select members of the audience and parts of the set design. For one reason or another, the in-game counterpart looks nothing like Korderas (see above) and in the archival footage, his face is rather clumsily blurred out. The referee for the Wrestlemania 21 match between Rey Mysterio and Eddie Guerrero was Jim Korderas, a man who would spend 22 years with the WWE. The real-life footage (left) placed alongside an in-game screen grab (right). However, in WWE 2K22 and in tandem with the ultra-specific objectives, the Showcase mode becomes a painful and tedious chore that you just want to be done with, in order to see what the next match holds in store. And then when you’ve finally cracked it, a cutscene kicks in and once again stops you from actually playing the game.ĭon’t get me wrong, I’m a fan of cutscenes in games as a way to push the narrative forward. When you have a combat system with mechanics that are - let’s face it - far from precise, it becomes an absolute pain to replicate the minutiae of a match through repeated trial and error. Now, objectives are ultra-specific and along the lines of “use x move to send dazed opponent to y area”. There was a time when objectives comprised stuff like ‘weaken opponent’s arms to x level’ or ‘irish whip opponent out of the ring’, and you could actually have fun playing the game while trying to achieve these. Unfortunately, and I had begun to notice this most starkly with WWE 2K20‘s ‘The Women’s Evolution’, the list of objectives (or things to do in a particular way in order for the match to progress) has over the years become far too bloated and painfully specific. The premise of the Showcase is simple enough - to recreate key spots, listen to a bit of insider analysis and ultimately relive memorable matches. There are two principal reasons for this: The concept and the visual dissonance. So why am I grumbling today, one might well ask. The first match of the Rey Mysterio Showcase pits you against Eddie Guerrero at WCW’s Halloween Havoc in 1997. The rich database of archival footage, the ability to get key players of the era to chip in with their thoughts and overall top-notch production values has made 2K Showcase a standout feature ever since its inception nearly seven-and-a-half years ago. It’s not just that the matches were great, but the buildup, the drama and pageantry that makes pro-wrestling what it is, was all out on display. My personal favourite was the ‘Best Friends, Bitter Enemies’ Showcase in WWE 2K15 that was a blow-by-blow account of the feud between Triple H and Shawn Michaels. After all, you may have been too young to watch some of the greatest Wrestlemania matches, but WWE 2K17‘s ‘Hall of Fame’ Showcase made it so you could relive some of those classics. See what I mean? It’s uncanny how smooth that transition was.Īs anyone familiar with the product the sports entertainment behemoth has been churning out for the past decade or more will tell you, the WWE is bigger on nostalgia now than it’s ever been and the 2K Showcase is a wonderful complement to that. You can always play the match again to successfully unlock rewards including Eddie Guerrero from 1997, Mysterio's Halloween Havoc purple attire, the WCW Cruiserweight Championship and 1997 WCW Halloween Havoc area.Pretty slick transition… #PS5Share, #WWE2K22 /cPcznwOOnn You don't see Mysterio's face in the cutscene, but you do get to see Eddie Guerrero bragging to the camera, flexing his prize, Mysterio's mask, to the camera. Eddie motions to the crowd that it is time, and he brings Mysterio to his knees, and rips the famous mask off of your face. In it, Eddie Guerrero is the one celebrating a win, and Rey Mysterio is the one laying in defeat. If Guerrero pins you and you can't kick out, the match is over, and a new cutscene is prompted. If you unfortunately are defeated by Eddie Guerrero in the first WWE 2K22 Showcase match, you are prompted to a little Easter Egg, showing the consequences of Guerrero winning that match back in 1997. Who’s ready for all things #WWE2K22 at WrestleMania!? WE ARE!! /6t9CMgwVSE- #WWE2K22 FebruWhat Happens if Eddie Guerrero Beats Rey Mysterio in WWE 2K22 Showcase We are the official sponsors and we can’t compose our excitement! ? It’s about to HIT DIFFERENT at #WrestleMania 38! So, what happens if Eddie Guerrero beats Rey Mysterio in WWE 2K22 Showcase? However, there is the chance that you can lose this match with how strong Eddie Guerrero is in WWE 2K22. There are various objectives to complete during this match, from specific light attacks to diving attacks, ultimately leading to you trying to win the WCW Cruiserweight Championship. In the very first match of WWE 2K22's Showcase, you control Rey Mysterio in the historic 1997 Halloween Havoc Title vs. Novels, comics and even audiobooks have already explored this era, but Eclipse will be the first video game set within this part of the Star Wars timeline. The High Republic period, not to be confused with The Old Republic, is set hundreds of years before The Skywalker Saga, and was the golden age of the Republic and the Jedi Order. The Star Wars Eclipse cinematic trailer from The Game Awards 2021 sets the game in the High Republic Era. Star Wars is a different beast in Cage's mind, and his plan is to tackle the two subjects differently. In an interview with IGN, Cage said that Detroit: Become Human was all about predicting the tech of the next 10 to 20 years and showing how that impacts society and was more about anticipation than science fiction. Still, Quantic Dream founder David Cage says to expect something new, not simply a Star Wars-themed reskin of Detroit: Become Human. While it is not confirmed that she will be the sole protagonist of Eclipse, this leak leads us to believe that she will be the main protagonist. Sarah is a member of the Zaraan, a new human-like race new to the Star Wars universe. In a leak to Sacred Symbols podcast host, which was later determined to be a controlled leak from developer Quantic Dream to gauge interest, Eclipse will have a lead character named Sarah. Rather than fixating on one character that you build up over time, you may need to control the fate of many pieces on the proverbial board.ĭespite this claim of multiple playable characters, there's been some - mildly - conflicting information regarding how many players you could play as. There will be several playable characters and your choices will matter, with every decision having the potential for a dramatic impact on the course of the player's story experience. In classic Quantic Dream fashion, it appears that player choice will be a key component of Star Wars Eclipse. The studio might not completely switch things up, though. This suggests it might shake off the “playable movie” tag from previous Quantic Dream games. The developer notes that Star Wars Eclipse will be an action-adventure game with multiple characters, each with its own branching possibilities. However, the developer may branch out for Eclipse. Quantic Dream tends to create interactive, narrative-driven adventure games that are light on traditional gameplay. Even now, unless someone else for some reason deleted their post, the only picture that shows the line of site cones is the one you posted in response to my comment. I sorted by old and scrolled my way through the thread, and there were a couple screenshots, and none of them had the information I was looking for. *edit - also, I did check, and the screenshot you posted with the cones and everything wasn't posted anywhere else that I could see in the thread. But it's not like there's a limit to how much we can post in a thread, and if a video helps some people more, where's the harm? I think there's plenty of room for both viewpoints. But nevertheless, I just didn't know about it.īottom line is, sure, for most people, I guess a screenshot would suffice. It's an interesting ability, though, so maybe it will change the way I do some things on water levels. But that's a tower path I don't really use, so I wasn't already very familiar with it. For some people, like me, the videos are helpful for the sometimes very touchy tower placement.Īs for the ice tower thing, yeah, you're right, I could have read the description. I appreciate your side of things, I just disagree. This is just a discussion, not a competition. I don't know what to tell you about the screenshot you posted. In which case the work will be marked as NSFW or could be removed.Īgain, I'm not being defensive.
He kept the key with him at all times and the location of the chest a closely guarded secret.Ībandoning his duty, Davy Jones then returned to the seven seas, only now sailors everywhere would fear him to the death, for Jones had turned fierce and cruel, with an insatiable taste for all things brutal. Soon Jones' guilt became so great, he carved out his own heart and locked it away in the Dead Man's Chest. Jones was the one who told the Brethren how to bind Calypso into human form he never stopped loving her, but the pain it caused him was too much to live with. So, when the First Brethren Court convened, Davy Jones plotted with them to tear the rule of the seas away from Calypso, in which the Brethren imprisoned her into the body of a mortal woman. But when Davy Jones came ashore after his ten year duty, he was forsaken by Calypso, who was nowhere to be found. Because of that love, Davy Jones agreed to set foot on land once every ten years, where Jones would be free to be with Calypso. He would be given the Flying Dutchman as well as the sacred task of ferrying souls who died at sea to the worlds beyond. In one particular legend, Davy Jones was a great sailor until he fell in love with the sea goddess Calypso. A fearsome captain, a ruthless and heartless beast, striking terror into the bravest of sailors as the devil of the deep, he became the stuff of various myths and legends of Pirate Lore, particularly relating to the Dutchman and Davy Jones' Locker. Once a man who "ran afoul of that which vexes all men," Jones became as much sea creature as he was human. I can offer you.an escape." ―Davy Jones ĭavy Jones was the ruler of the Seven Seas, a supernatural force condemned for eternity to captain the Flying Dutchman. Instead, “ Hoist the Colors” deftly establishes the mystique of the Brethren Court while also subtly addressing Jones’ mysterious past without naming him." Do you fear death? Do you fear that dark abyss? All your deeds laid bare. Blackbeard would later reemerge in Pirates of the Caribbean, but as a forgettable villain who recruits crew in a novel way – his daughter Angelica pretends as Jack Sparrow. Within the first few minutes of the third film, the song effectively discloses Jones’ past to the audience, demonstrating how much effort went into Gore Verbinski’s trilogy’s narrative. The line “ The king and his men/Stole the queen from her bed/And bound her in her bones” clearly refers to the first Brethren Court, reminding listeners of the Pirate Lords’ perceived power while also teasing the truth about Jones’ assistance, which ultimately leads to Davy Jones’ octopus-like appearance. This aspect may go undetected at first, especially with so many storey threads to follow, but the song does truly reflect the pirates’ independence after confining Calypso in human form. “ Every one of the verses tells the storey of Davy Jones and Calypso,” Elliot says. The song’s lyrics, however, reveal the origin of the Flying Dutchman’s captain, which the heroes of Pirates of the Caribbean were first unaware of. Before the film’s finale, while the pirate army prepares for a fight. The song is dangerous since it is a rallying cry for fellow pirates, which is exactly what the crew of the Black Pearl wants. The writers were dismayed to realise that this was merely a legend. Sixpence was allegedly the daily salary sailors received, while “Four and twenty blackbirds/Baked in a pie” represented his strategy of surprise attacks, which involved pretending a need for assistance in order to lure passing vessels into a trap. Each song held a hidden message about serving Blackbeard, which was hinted at in the first film. As a key inspiration, Ted Elliot mentions a lengthy examination (via Snopes) at the myth behind “ Sing a Song of Sixpence.” When Blackbeard arrived in a port, his men sang this song to inform locals that he was hunting for a crew, according to folklore.

Anyone who comes into contact with a Zombie will be infected, turning into a zombie and then furthur spreading the plague. Our Minecraft Servers have been over-ran with a Zombie Plague. Let me know, I'll try to help out some more.This is a public service announcement. That should be it, if I missed something or something isn't working as intended. If you find yourself stuck and not finding the procedures, you can search for them in the search tab in the procedure window. The procedure will now look like so: (Ignore the player respawns in this procedure, I forgot to remove it)Īt number 1: just set it for your new zombified mob to spawn. Make sure that it doesn't spawn naturally as well. For this, simply create a new mob with the same model as the normal one, but with a zombified texture. Rinse and repeat for each phase you want, and you have yourself a mutating virus via the use of advancements and potion effects.Īs for the part where it will zombify other mobs, add a procedure to this trigger in the Mob's trigger section:Īdd a block that will spawn in the new zombified mob. You can do more research on that.Īt number 2: Simply add in the new potion effect we made "ZombiePhase2" here. This may pose a problem as it will remove any other potion effect the player might have, and I'm not too sure if you can specify which potion effect to remove. You can also see that we added the "Clear all." block, as we don't want the old potion effect to get removed. Therefore if you want the new ZombiePhase2 to be applied after, say, 15 minutes, (or more correctly, randomly within the next 15 minutes), add 18000 instead of 20. Keeping in mind that each 20 ticks is 1 second. (Making sure that when it ends, it gets reapplied, so you don't lost it if you want to make more phases.) The procedure we made now that will get triggered by the ZombiePhase1 gets applied potion, will look like so:Īt number 1: The number 20 should any number you want the potion effect to wait until it gets randomly applied to the player. So with this, the player is now a "Zombie."įor the part where you want to randomly evolve the player's Zombie state, simply add a new procedure trigger to the potion effect (The When potion is applied/started trigger) with a random variable that would evolve the player into a new potion effect, let's call it "ZombiePhase2." Of which again you can apply all the traits you want for it. (Make it so when the potion ends, it reapplies it, so you don't lose the potion effect, as this will be necessary for later on.) You can now edit the new "ZombiePhase1" potion however you'd like, giving it triggers that suit your needs, and apply beneficial or bad traits to the player. Then for the player being a zombie part, you can't really edit the model of the player, nor the texture afaik with MCreator general capacity, but if that doesn't bother you you can create a new potion effect, let's call it "ZombiePhase1." This potion will be applied to the player upon respawning, and having done the achievement of getting the virus. Now add a global procedure, and set it to when player respawns, and add the If player has completed the achievement block, like so: It is in ticks, each 20 tick is 1 second) (Change how long the potion stays in the below procedure, the "60" part. Make it so once the potion effect ends, (in the triggers), the player dies. Then add a procedure block where it applies a new potion effect (Which will be the "Virus") Only to the player (you'll see the procedure below) Then add a procedure to this part of the mob triggers: Make sure that it won't show the toast when completed, nor would it announce it in the chat (unless you want that, of course.) You need first to create a new advancement like so: This wouldn't be the first time that Nintendo has released old games with small upgrades in stand-alone packages for full price, with both The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD and Twilight Princess HD as prime examples of this. Instead of downloadable content, Nintendo could also be planning Super Mario Galaxy 2 to be released as a stand-alone port for the Switch. Here are some of the possible ways in which the title could come to the Switch later down the road. RELATED: Best and Worst Things About Super Mario 3D All-Stars But just because the title wasn't present in this package doesn't mean that Nintendo doesn't have plans to bring Super Mario Galaxy 2 to its console hybrid at all. Sitting at a near-perfect 97, Super Mario Galaxy 2 is tied with both Super Mario Odyssey and the first Galaxy game as the highest-ranked Mario platformer on Metacritic, so it's understandable that many Nintendo fans were frustrated by the game's absence. While 3D Land's absence is somewhat forgivable, there seems less reason for Galaxy 2 not being included in this package. While it did include the classic titles Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario Galaxy, many fans were frustrated by the exclusion of other 3D Mario games such as Super Mario Galaxy 2 and Super Mario 3D Land. But with that said, the collection was by no means perfect fans complaints ranged from the package's lack of additional features, to the collection overall feeling incomplete. The title was a huge financial success, becoming the second best-selling game for the month of September and reaching the top 10 best-selling games of the year, after being on sale for just one month. Earlier this year, Nintendo confirmed the long-rumored Super Mario 3D All-Stars for the Switch, announcing it and then releasing it in September. Download Linkīoom 3D 1.4.0 Full Version Rar (32.
