12/22/2023 0 Comments Diablo iv console release dateDyes and the wardrobe return from Diablo III. The console versions will feature couch co-op. When it fills, the boss becomes staggered. Players can induce control effects on bosses, and in doing so, this fills up their stagger bar. Furthermore, the game includes a stagger system for some monsters. It allows players to dodge enemy attacks. The game adds an "evade" function, which in the case of the PC version, is assigned to the space bar. Players can create clans while in the game. The game utilizes a shared world system where groups may encounter one another, engaging in both PvE (PvM) and PvP activities. The game can be played solo or in a group. PvP zones feature where players can battle against each other. Despite the game's open-world structure, the game's story has a definite beginning, middle, and end. The player character's armor is carried over to these scenes. These cutscenes are reserved for the most important story moments. Here, the camera is used to treat the storytelling as being akin to a movie. The second storytelling method used is real-time cutscenes. For more complex conversations, the game takes a similar camera approach but here the character’s movements and animations are more deliberately hand-crafted. This is designed to maintain an isometric feel, but a library of animations are used to deliver the gist of the conversation. For simple interactions with NPCs, the game brings the camera in closer to the characters. NPCs are featured in the game, both friendly and unfriendly ones. The Tree of Whispers is an end-game system. Monster designs are based on "families" of disparate, yet thematically-linked creatures which work well together. Randomized and Keyed Dungeons are featured in the game. The game has a day-night cycle and dynamic weather effects. The Paragon Board features, replacing the Paragon system from previous games. Roads link various areas-sticking to the roads allows players to bypass monsters, while heading off the path will take them towards higher monster densities. Towns may become social hubs for a player once key story elements have been completed. While the game has shared-world elements, it is not an MMO. The open-world is fixed, and not randomized. Each of these areas will be 10–20 times larger than even the largest areas in Diablo III. World Bosses are encountered in the open-world areas. Players will be able to use mounts to traverse across long distances. These are Kehjistan (specifically its northern desert region), Scosglen, the Dry Steppes, the Fractured Peaks, and the swamplands of Hawezar. Diablo IV utilizes an open world structure with five unique regions.

12/22/2023 0 Comments Julius erving statsAlso notice that Erving was not showing off he did a crossover move or a reverse pivot because those moves were necessary to beat the defense and because he knew that even though those moves might look flashy they were not high risk maneuvers for him because he had worked on his craft. Notice that Erving did not find it necessary to draw attention to himself with any antics after he made a great move he let his game do his talking for him. In the video, Erving puts his entire skill set on display: devastating defense (watch him fly out of nowhere to block a shot, catch the ball and then fire a great outlet pass), rebounding in traffic, post up moves and some dazzling dribbling sequences (including a right to left between the legs crossover dribble that is under control, deceptively quick and did not require palming/carrying the ball): At the time (and for some time afterward), only Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Wilt Chamberlain had scored at least 30,000 points, so Erving was the only "mid-size" player to cross that threshold.Ĭheck out this video snippet from the 1972 ABA-NBA All-Star Game, played shortly after the conclusion of Erving's rookie campaign he looks like a modern player teleported five decades into the past, almost like the old Scottie Pippen commercial depicting Pippen dunking against 1950s era players-except Erving was not taking on chumps or patsies here: the NBA roster was stacked with nine future Hall of Famers, including Wilt Chamberlain and Oscar Robertson. My research uncovered no other game in pro basketball history during which a player matched Erving's production in all three of those categories.Įrving never played for stats or for glory in his 16 year career, the only milestone that he openly pursued was trying to reach the 30,000 point club during the final games of his last season. Erving was more of a double-double threat than a triple double threat but as a rookie he had a playoff game with 26 points, 20 rebounds and 15 assists. Triple doubles are the talk of the NBA this season. Those four players came close to matching Erving's 6.5 apg average." Hakeem Olajuwon (1988 NBA) and Shaquille O'Neal (2000 NBA). Postseason are George Mikan (1952 NBA), Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (1977 NBA), Scoring average and playoff rebounding average during the same (1960-62, 64) the only other players who led the NBA or ABA in playoff How extraordinary is that trifecta? Forgive me for quoting myself to answer my own question: "The only other player in ABA/NBA history who averaged at least 30 ppgĪnd at least 20 rpg in the same postseason is Wilt Chamberlain The sad reality is that even most so-called basketball experts have no clue about Erving's complete skill set there is precious little footage of his three years with the New York Nets (during which he won three regular season MVPs, two Finals MVPs, two scoring titles and two championships) and even less footage of his two seasons with the Virginia Squires, when he put up some incredible numbers-especially in the playoffs, including a 33.3 ppg, 20.4 rpg and 6.5 apg stat line as a rookie in the 1972 ABA playoffs. In today's game, Erving could be a prototype point forward, driving to the hoop and either finishing or kicking the ball to open shooters he possessed the necessary ballhandling and passing skills to fill that role but the teams for which he played and the era during which he played placed him in a different role most of the time, though he provided glimpses of those aforementioned skills. Everyone knows that Erving could attack the hoop for layups and to draw fouls. I respect greatness from any era, so this article should not be interpreted as a shot at today's top players-but can you imagine a young Julius Erving playing under today's no hand-checking rules, let alone in an era that emphasizes the value of three point shots, layups and free throws above all other kinds of shots? Erving was a capable three point shooter (his career three point shooting percentage is artificially deflated by half court heaves, because during most of his era the three point shot was not used as a regular weapon). "You had to see the man and hear the music." John Papanek, attempting to explain Julius Erving's greatness 12/22/2023 0 Comments Dont quit qoutesWe’ll never be able to control all the aspects of business, but we can control our response to them.

Here we are a year after the initial release and the Director’s Cut has hit the Wii U. It’s the perfect example of what you want a sequel to do when improvement is all a game really needs in a sequel, since it took what made the original work and expanded upon it. The controls were a little tighter, the graphics a tad more vibrant, and the music had a little more depth to it. The folks at Frozenbyte took a formula that worked and just ironed out the biggest rough edges. Beyond that, the game was more of the same, which wasn’t a bad thing at all. The online component was executed wonderfully, with lag-free play allowing the puzzle solving to be done without a hitch. While local co-op made the game easier before by taking all of the frustration out of puzzle solving, it definitely felt like a tease compared to what could be done online. Fast-forward two years and the sequel hits those platforms as well as XBLA, and brings with it online co-op. The original Trine was a hit on the PS3 and PC three years ago because it combined absolutely stunning graphics with a whimsical soundtrack, some excellent physics-based puzzles, and a three character-swap mechanic that worked as well then as it did in the Lost Vikings nearly two decades ago. 12/21/2023 0 Comments Game emergency 20 directing onlookersLeave the car at home and the driving to SEPTA.
