With a simple tap of the Y button, you can toggle between military-focused buildings and economy and resource-based buildings. The classic “wheel” of buildings you can build is brought up in the center of your screen. For example, when you are building with a villager, instead of having a menu at the bottom of the screen to scroll through. The use of toggle menus saves a lot of potential button mashing when you are deep in the field of battle. This is where I really have to tip my hat to the developers because out of all the RTS I have played on console Age Of Empires 2 felt the most natural in motion. I was especially curious as to how they would adapt the wide range of controls required for Age Of Empires 2 to an Xbox gamepad. This would create almost “dark zones” between empires where you could see the history of battles fought there. Watching units collapse and perish in combat was very well done, however, I kind of wish that the bodies of vanquished units would stay on the map. Seeing your units fight to the last man, as catapult shots and individual arrows rain down on them is exhilarating. It is stunningly immersive as you feel like a tactical war general enacting your battle plans. The only way I can describe it is that Age Of Empires 2 on Xbox looks the way I thought it did when I was a kid. While also updating the art style in a very clean and respectful way. Somehow the developers managed to check both of these boxes, offering the almost standard 4K UHD graphical fidelity. While still maintaining the classic appeal of what fans like me who have nostalgia for the series are looking for. The biggest challenge a lot of remasters/remakes face is how do you update the graphics and gameplay mechanics for new fans looking for a modern experience. Does Age Of Empires 2 still have that “WOW” factor if you didn’t play it back in the late 90s as I did? I think it absolutely does. Now fast forward to 2023 where plenty of RTS has combined even crazier ideas such as the battles to be found in franchises like Warhammer. To be able to experience it and pit all these different factions against each other felt otherworldly at the time. In what other world could you make the Britons fight the Persians? It was such a chaotic mixture of history. As an avid history enjoyer, seeing so many different factions combined into one world was incredible. Falling In Love With The PastĪge of Empires 2 was one of my first RTS games as a kid, and I can remember being blown away at first. Despite these challenges, Forgotten Empires and Tantalus Studios smashed my expectations with a fantastic port of a legendary franchise. With so much action happening all over the map translating such an intensive game like Age Of Empires 2 to a console is a tall task. There are many challenges in bringing an RTS to console, due to the wide variety of movement and keybinding allotted by the mouse and keyboard peripherals. Now in 2023, Age Of Empires 2 has made its way to an Xbox console for the first time ever. The release of the definitive edition on PC back in 2019 saw a whole new generation of fans fall in love with the franchise. From its massive epic battles, thematic soundtrack, and highly competitive multiplayer, it has been a staple on PC for decades. Nonetheless, the defensive boons and Cataphract should encourage anyone to go to the Byzantines.Age Of Empires 2 has often been considered to be one of the greatest RTS games of all time. While that might be overwhelming for a new player, if you're an experienced one, you can use that to your advantage. Their technology tree is among the largest in the game, with everything but a few economy upgrades and Herbal Medicine available to research. RELATED: The Best Games To Play If You Like Age Of Empires With the unique Logistica technology, Cataphracts can also cause trample damage to your opponents. The Cataphract is also more effective and less vulnerable to anti-cavalry units like Spears and Pikemen. While their cavalry lacks upgrades, you might not need many anyway since their unique unit, the Cataphract, is one of the most powerful units in the game, especially once you research Blast Furnace at the Blacksmith. Their buildings start with ten percent additional HP, which increases by ten with every additional age you advance. The Byzantines are another largely defensive civilization.

Vocalist Justin Pierre and guitarist Joshua Cain were friends who had come up playing in several local bands. Motion City Soundtrack was formed in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Club referred to the album as a pop punk classic, "full of hook-laden, keyboard-assisted songs whose bright melodies don't mask the despair and self-loathing lurking beneath them." Background The singles' music videos achieved rotation on cable channel MTV2 while the band toured alongside Fall Out Boy and Panic! at the Disco. The album peaked at number two on Billboard 's Independent Albums chart. Upon release, the album was viewed as the band's breakthrough, with its gold-certified lead single " Everything Is Alright" adopted as their signature song. Hoppus mainly worked with the band on finalizing song arrangements. He aimed for stronger storytelling in his lyricism, inspired by the work of Tom Waits, Ben Folds, and John K. The album was partially composed there and in their hometown of Minneapolis, during a period in which frontman Justin Pierre was seeking treatment for alcohol abuse. Recorded over six weeks in late 2004, Commit This to Memory was created largely at Seedy Underbelly Studios, a suburban home converted into a studio in Los Angeles' Valley Village region. Blink bassist Mark Hoppus took a liking to the quintet, offering to produce their next studio effort. It was followed with a heavy touring schedule, including stints on the Warped Tour and as the openingĪct for multi-platinum group Blink-182. Their debut LP, I Am the Movie, saw release on independent label Epitaph in 2003. The Minnesota-based rock act formed in 1997, developing their emotionally-charged, pop-punk sound over the interim years. Produced by Mark Hoppus, the album was released on June 7, 2005, in the United States by Epitaph Records. Commit This to Memory is the second studio album by American rock band Motion City Soundtrack. Available in either a stainless-steel or black oxide finish.

As we’ve been talking about for a few weeks now over here at Traxion, 18 th May was setting up to be a massive day for SnowRunner and everyone behind the title. Simply download it manually and replace your initial.pak in your game directory (SnowRunnerenuspreloadpaksclient) with this one. We already knew that the terrain simulator was on its way to both Nintendo Switch and Steam, it’s now also available on Xbox Game Pass through console, PC, or cloud play, and it was also reported that a fourth season was getting added to the fold as well. Now that the release is here and ready to play, there’s even more great news to share with the latest patch for Season 4 to conclude the Year 1 Season Pass. On the Focus Home Interactive forums, it was announced that Year 2 will be coming with four new seasons in the future following a successful first year of added content. Phasmophobia's Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 Release Date: August 2023. While Kinetic Games has yet to announce a specific release date, it has confirmed that they will be released sometime in August. The latest patch, which is available on all current platforms, which fixes some bugs and adds even more added content and features to the fold. Phasmophobia has been available in early access on Steam since September 2020, making the wait for the console ports fairly long. One of the standout features added to the simulator is a new “hard mode” which takes the already difficult setting and makes it harder to accomplish your goals. If you choose to make things harder, you won’t be able to skip any time, trucks are only worth 50 percent of their cost when sold, and now you’ll have to pay for things that you didn’t have to before, like recovery, repair, and refueling. The “Label ids Item – 1” is also optional, and it lets you automatically tag a card created this way with a color label. This may be useful if you’re using this flow to work collaboratively with a team on Trello. You don’t have to do this part, but you can if you’d like. Okay, under “Member Ids Item – 1”, just choose which user on Trello will inherit the card automatically once it comes over from Google. Choose the board you want your Google Tasks to go to, and move on to the “Parent List Id” box. In the second box, choose the dropdown box for “Board Id” and you’ll notice that all of the Trello boards associated with that login you used during the connection process will be populated. I chose the default list, which I’ve renamed “Field Notes” so that I can quickly add things to it on the go as I used to do with my Bullet Journal Field Notes notebook. In the first box, the drop-down for “Task List ID” will let you choose one of your Google Tasks lists. The second box says “Create a card”, and it features a Trello icon. You see, the first box says “When a task is added to a task list” and it has a Google Tasks logo (a really old one at that!). Here’s where it may get a little confusing, but I promise it’s not so bad. Okay, both connections are established, right? Click the blue “Continue” button just below that. Pro Tip: If the “Sign in” button for Trello is greyed out, just refresh the page! We saw this to be a consistent problem with Power Automate, but was easily fixed by tapping F5 on your keyboard or clicking the refresh button on your browser’s top bar.

Listen to the heartbeat at each antenatal visit, starting at five months. Hearing two heartbeats is a sign of twins. The baby’s heartbeat gives information about the baby’s position inside the mother, and whether it is alive.If the baby stops kicking it may be sick or have died, and the mother needs urgent referral. Fetal kick is also a sign of fetal health. The position in the mother’s abdomen where she can feel the baby kicking can help you determine its position.Do not attempt to turn a breech or transverse baby. the baby is bottom down (breech), or lying sideways (transverse), refer the mother to the nearest health facility. This is the safest position for a normal delivery. By the seventh or eighth month, the baby’s head has usually moved down in the mother’s pelvis. Most babies are lying vertically by the seventh month with their head towards the cervix of the uterus. It is reassuring to find one baby in the uterus and that the head of the fetus is down in the last month of pregnancy.Only rarely do PVCs cause problems on their own without accompanying heart issues.In Study Session 11, you have learned that: Occasional PVCs are common in people of all ages, but the risk increases with age. Some of the heart conditions increasing the risk for PVCs are: A person with heart failure may notice increased symptoms, like shortness of breath. For example, they might happen in someone whose ventricle already squeezes poorly. PVCs generally cause dangerous symptoms only in people with other heart problems. Other possible symptoms include dizziness, near-fainting and a pounding sensation in the neck. Some people experience feeling a ‘skipped’ or ‘extra’ heartbeat. Occasionally, PVCs cause the unpleasant awareness of the heartbeat known as palpitations. Most people with occasional PVCs do not have symptoms and when they do happen, they are usually minor. Increased adrenaline, for example during periods of anxiety.Electrolyte abnormalities like low sodium or potassium levels. So the heart has a random ‘premature’ heartbeat between many other normal heartbeats. If it happens a little later, your heart pushes out an almost-normal amount of blood, leading to the feeling of an extra heartbeat. If this happens very soon after the previous heartbeat, your heart will push out very little blood, causing a feeling of a pause between beats. The signal spreads through the rest of your heart, causing a heartbeat. This signal is premature, happening before the SA node has been able to fire. In a PVC, the signal to start your heartbeat instead comes from one of the ventricles. As it travels to the left and right ventricles, the signal triggers nearby parts of your heart to contract, allowing the heart to squeeze in a coordinated process. The signal rapidly moves through your heart’s conducting system. Normally, a special group of cells in the sinoatrial node (SA) of the right atrium start the signal to start your heartbeat. The heart has four chambers - two upper atria and two lower ventricles. A cervical exam during these contractions helps determine if the cervix is dilating. Activity during true labor can cause contractions to strengthen. They should get closer together - five to 10 minutes or closer - rather than farther apart.Ĭontractions start in the lower back and wrap around to the lower stomach during which time the cervix thins and stretches. True labor contractions are painful and regular, getting more strong and frequent over time. The pain tends to be felt in the upper stomach rather than in the back or lower stomach. These contractions do not cause thinning or stretching of the cervix and are usually felt as tightening or mild discomfort. False laborīraxton-Hicks contractions, also known as false labor, are like practice contractions. In this guide to contractions, you can learn more about what to expect. You should also do so if you are unsure about your contractions overall. You should contact your health care provider if you are concerned about fetal movement. Women who have been more active or dehydrated may contract uncomfortably, a situation that should resolve with rest and hydration. Signs of labor include vaginal bleeding or a gush of fluid which may be water breaking. Labor by definition is the tightening of the uterus that causes cervical change. During your labor, you may experience contractions in a variety of ways. Technical support is available via email.ġ.
