You can think of the player still being “present” during the pacifist ending (the shadowZar hanging around Frisk and that Frisk’s SOUL is missing) as basically the equivalent of Radic showing up in the Pacifist ending with the pie. The player is there in a sense - Frisk is not. Technically the game is over at that point so there literally shouldn’t be a player anymore, but the lines around the definition of “player” are deliberately blurry in Handplates for reasons that should become more apparent later.įor clarity’s sake, the player timeline in Handplates goes like… It’s not the most literal interpretation of the ending of course, but it does fall in line with my personal interpretation of it (that the person you sell your soul to at the end of the murder run is yourself, or rather, your completionist side that can’t let these characters go out of a twisted kind of love for them). True reset (everything is wiped - there’s no evidence anywhere that this ever happened except the player’s reaction to Sans asking if they’re a good person and the player talking about what made them do a murder run when they decide to reset to find Gaster.Some dialogue with Flowey also alludes to it, unintentionally on Flowey’s part) A whole bunch of Neutral runs (essentially getting every possible ending, thus Sans’s new set of deja-vu memories).Hopefully that makes things a bit clearer, haha. The difficult thing is that the Handplates story is told from the perspective of the characters in Undertale, and there are things going on outside the game that they have no way of ever knowing or really understanding. It’s hard to get that across… but there’ll be more about it later. What about the computer? Things get a bit fiddly here. ![]() The timeline that the brothers saw (and Gaster subsequently recorded) was the murder run, since the first pacifist run essentially never happened by the game’s reckoning. Since the murder run basically destroyed all reality (as well as had lasting consequences beyond that ending), their vision wasn’t able to go past that point to see the human reset it again, so from their perspective the murder run was just where everything ended. This is why when they go check the computer later when the human starts their neutrals, the results of it haven’t changed! The data fed into the computer was from the murder run timeline, and since neither of them have been scraped for more data since Gaster existed, the data is out of date.Frisk is the main character of the story. They don't express emotion often, yet are somewhat childish. They view themselves as worthless or a bad person. ![]() However, they wear long sleeves and leggings to hide this.įlowey is careless and irritable. SOULless beings lack love, hope and compassion, but Flowey occasionally shows signs of these traits. ![]() Created by Lnoj CharaĬhara is often sarcastic. They urge Frisk to reset the timeline, and finish the genocide route one last time. ![]() Chara remains translucent to the viewers (with the exception of when they are in the void), but can only be seen by Frisk. Their eyes are naturally red, but glow whenever they are mad or make their "creepy face".

On October 2, EA released their third patch including Tim Kennedy and Gunnar Nelson, and also making Nick Diaz able to switch to the middleweight division. On August 26, 2014, EA released another patch that included heavyweight Stipe Miocic as well as welterweights Matt Brown and Mike Pyle. Dillashaw, Tyron Woodley and Takeya Mizugaki to the roster. A free content update was released for download on July 22, 2014, adding T.J. ![]() Gracie is playable in the middleweight division, and Lee is playable in bantamweight, featherweight, lightweight and welterweight. UFC legend Royce Gracie and late martial arts icon Bruce Lee are both featured in the game as bonus unlockable fighters. The final roster consists of 97 UFC fighters (not including DLC additions). The roster was gradually revealed by EA Sports in batches. The Fight Night team ( EA Canada) became the UFC team. The company said that the decision was based primarily on its perception that the UFC has greater international prominence, although EA Sports did offer that the boxing series could potentially return. Īs a result of the new project, Electronic Arts put its Fight Night boxing franchise on hold. The game is one of the first to run Electronic Arts's Ignite engine. The first gameplay for the game was shown at the Xbox One reveal event in a trailer by EA Sports. THQ reported that the publishing rights were purchased by EA Sports for an "undisclosed cash payment". After the closing of THQ, Electronic Arts announced a "multi-year, multi-product" partnership with the Ultimate Fighting Championship at the Electronic Entertainment Expo 2012. With the growing popularity of MMA (the UFC banner particularly) and THQ's success, Electronic Arts began working on EA Sports MMA, featuring UFC's then promotional rival, Strikeforce. With the success of the series, THQ quickly began working on a sequel, UFC Undisputed 2010, and followed this release with UFC Undisputed 3 in 2012. THQ's UFC 2009 Undisputed shipped approximately 2 million copies. The UFC then turned to developer THQ to develop UFC titles. Also included are perks unlocked throughout career to boost game-plans.Ĭonflict originally arose between UFC president Dana White and Electronic Arts, when the UFC approached EA Sports to develop a UFC video game and EA refused. The Ultimate Fighter is featured at the start of Career Mode. The game also simulates "full body deformation" to connect players with their player-character. Its artificial intelligence accommodates for changes in player strategies mid-game to make the gaming experience more realistic than in previous UFC games. The third installment, EA Sports UFC 3, was released on February 2, 2018, and a fourth title, EA Sports UFC 4, was released on August 14, 2020.ĮA Sports UFC is a mixed martial arts fighting game based on the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC).

It is the first UFC game since THQ sold the license to Electronic Arts. A playable demo was released on the PlayStation Network and Xbox Marketplace on June 3, 2014, with cover athletes Jon Jones and Alexander Gustafsson as playable fighters. It is based on the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) brand and was released on June 17, 2014.

So if we create something specifically for mobile and it ends up being something really, really cool that people get excited about, we’ll of course try to find a way to put that on every platform if it makes sense for the platform. Well, the idea for us is the try to maximize what we get out of the work that we create for ourselves. When asked by ComicBook if this feature would make its way into the PC and console versions of the game, this is what game director Matheiu Cote had to say earlier this year: Whenever a player disconnects from a match, they are replaced by an AI controlled counterpart. Interestingly, Behaviour Interactive have already included them in the mobile version of Dead By Daylight. Playing as a survivor is fun, sure, though not quite as satisfying as hunting them down and offering them up as sacrifice for The Entity.Īs such, if you’ve unlocked a new killer and want to learn their unique powers and experiment with loadouts you’ll need to do so in public matches. Right now, queues to join online matches as a killer can take several minutes, even with cross-play enabled. The game will just slowly die out because you refuse to listen to anything the survivors say.There’s an argument to be made that AI controlled characters would struggle to emulate the adaptable behaviour of human players though it would be a worthwhile feature nonetheless. So developers if you want to continue pleasing just the killers and that’s all you want to worry about then just an obvious reminder that without survivors there is no point for the killer and no point for the game to exist. However, the lobbies are getting slower and slower (and adding the game to gamepass did little for you it’s still very slow) which should tell anyone people are sick of the game and how it’s currently setup. It is now very killer sided which fine if that’s all the developers care about. I used to play the game religiously and now I find myself taking longer and longer breaks from it, and many I used to play with have done the same or stopped all together and refuse to play. Some killers argue there shouldn’t be any other changes to this but of course they would cause it just means they have to actually chase people and that would actually take some skill which is apparently too much to ask for on this kind of game and it would possibly cause their ranks to be more. There should be other penalties like the generator repair speed increases based on the killers distance to a hooked survivor or something. They have not made nor apparently intend to make any improvements using suggestions in their forums because this is a “valid playing style” and in most of our opinions, more perks is not a good way to balance the game when it comes to this “valid playing style”. They might lose a few points but that is it. Their solution to this? Let’s add more perks but not make it harder for the killer. It’s a good idea BUT they continue to not address issues the survivor community has continued to bring up. Even the new tome challenges require an additional purchase if you want the good stuff. Even the new tome challenges require an additional This game has continued to rely on cosmetics and “new killers” to keep the game alive. This game has continued to rely on cosmetics and “new killers” to keep the game alive. Although I have it on the pc I am thinking about getting it for Xbox one too! … Expand That being said, it is still a fun game and is different from a lot of the multiplayer games out there. I think I would enjoy it more if the maps were bigger and the generators didn't take so dang long to fix. ![]() ![]() This game has less bugs being that it was released on pc over a year ago, but I don't find it nearly as immersive as Friday the 13th. Unfortunately you have no way of fighting back and once you get found, and are in the monster's grasp, all you can do is try to wriggle free before getting put up on a hook. You try to repair the generators or find the secret door (if you find the key) while being hunted by the killer. The downside is that every match plays out the same. The great thing about this game is that there are different killers with different perks and the people trying to escape are pretty unique. The Having played both Dead by Daylight and Friday the 13th I thought I would write a review to help people decide if they should get it.

Still, if you wanted to disable turbo mode completely, the second option in the screenshot will do that. I’ll freely admit to knowing nothing about video editing, but I don’t think it’s the throttling causing the glitching. There’s probably another problem lurking inside there. Throttling under really heavy loads is a normal function of turbo mode, and it should not cause any glitching in operation. Core C-State and MPC Mode are totally confusing. SpeedStep is an older Intel CPU feature that I think was replaced by SpeedShift for the X generation processors, which I have. It seems obvious that it might be the “Turbo” setting, but it more probable that there is another setting in combination with that? My understanding is a combination of these settings will disable the hardware function of Turbo CPU mode. If you glance back up in my first post, you’ll see several other settings for this MB. Not sure about that and currently that’s beyond my head. That’s the biggest issue.Īlso, I may be able, somewhere to set processor min and max states. ![]() This i9-9900x CPU is a hot little beast and while I have adequate air flow, overclocking is not necessary and just consumes more power and puts out more heat. I can probably take care of that in the power settings. 1) It’s throttling the CPU low in the middle of editing video and causing some glitching. The reason why I don’t want the Turbo Boost is for a couple of reasons. My Sandy Bridge CPU from ~2012 has it, a fact that caused some confusion when I first upgraded from my overclocked Phenom II and began the process of overclocking the Sandy.ĭisabling Turbo Boost completely would reduce the performance of the CPU, which is not what people who shelled out four a high-end CPU would usually want… that is, if that is actually what you want! It’s your computer, of course, and you should be able to do what you want, but maybe there’s some other way to attack whatever the root issue is for you. Turbo Boost 3.0 is apparently a feature on higher-end CPUs, but Turbo Boost (in non 3.0 form) is an intrinsic performance feature of Intel CPUs going way back. Is it not working properly, causing too much heat, fan noise, power consumption, or some other thing?Īre you trying to reduce it to an earlier form of Turbo Boost, or are you trying to eliminate all Turbo Boost and simply operate at the maximum base clock? It would help to know what you are trying to accomplish by disabling Turbo Boost 3.0. This kind of active effort on the part of the OS to do what it wants instead of what the hardware owner wants is the whole problem with Windows 10 in a nutshell. ![]() If you set that to disabled, it might accomplish what you want. If you go into Device Manager, you should see the device Windows keeps downloading the driver for. I have done that, at least I thought, in Windows settings. Another solution could be to keep windows from automatically downloading and updating the driver. One possible solution would be to turn off the turbo feature in the Bios, but I have no idea what settings those might be (see image). Regardless, windows will still download the driver, install it, and schedule it to run automatically. I’ve actually tried removing the driver, disabling the the task and the service. Windows 10 simply downloads the driver again. What I have found out is simply disabling or uninstalling the software app for the turbo boost doesn’t work. Second, is the operating system and a driver for the Intel turbo boost app. First in the Motherboard BIOS there is a switch or switches that turn the feature on. It’s my understanding that this involves two things. My motherboard uses a CPU that has the ability to use Intel’s turbo boost 3.0. It includes a wide variety of both Japanese and Western-style knives, which is a range of options you’ll only find in a couple of their other series. Set includes: 8” chef knife, 7” santoku knife, 9”hollow edge carving knife, 6” utility knife, 5” hollow edge nakiri knife, 4.5 inch Honesuki knife, 3.5” paring knife, Shun multi-purpose kitchen shears, 9” combination honing steel, 13=slot bamboo knife block. Top Classic Shun Classic 10 Piece Block Set Specifications VG-MAX steel core They also have the 2-Piece Chef’s set, which is just the chef knife and the paring knife, and is likely the cheapest combination of Shun knives you can find anywhere.And the 6-Piece Basic Block set you see pictured above.the Sora 3-Piece Build-a-Block set, which has the Sora chef knife, honing steel, and a 6-slot knife block. ![]() ![]() Shun offers the Sora set in 3 different sizes of block sets (a pattern you’ll see repeated in some of the other series): The Shun Sora surprised us with it’s slicing ability considering the relatively low cost. It mostly has different kinds of chef and utility knives (both Japanese and Western), but Sora is fairly new, and I have a feeling they’ll be adding more knives as this series becomes more popular. The Shun Sora 8 Inch Chef Knife has become one of our favorite sub $100 chef knives.Īlso, as one of the more reasonably priced Shun sets, the Sora line is worth considering for anyone thinking about trying Shun knives out and the Shun Classic stuff doesn’t seem like your thing. The pin at the bottom sticks out a little too much and bumps your hand in a weird way sometimes, but usually your hand is going to rest well above it while you’re actually using the thing so the knife as a whole feels great to cut with. I’ll say from personal experience that the handle on the chef knife has a really nice texture and overall weight. These handles are comfortable, and make maintenance a lot easier since you don’t have to worry about swelling if it gets wet. That doesn’t sound as cool or classy on paper, but it’s a solid, practical material. They’re a surprisingly nontraditional thermoplastic blend. The really outstanding feature here is the handles, which for once aren’t some kind of wood or wood-synthetic. They’re always folding crazy stuff together to make a better cutting edge, and you’ll see it in a lot of other knives in this blog. This kind of steel folding isn’t anything new for Shun. Here they’ve put a VG-10 core between two layers of 420J steel to keep the edge cutting smooth longer and increase corrosion resistance to some degree. Sora is one of their newer lines featuring a few small tweaks in elements you’ll see in their other knives. Set includes: 8” chef knife, 6” utility knife, 3.5” paring knife, herb shears, c ombination honing steel, 11-slot bamboo block. Sora Shun Sora 6 Piece Block Set Specifications VG-10/420J steel We will add new knife series and sets to this article as Shun releases them. It’s also worth mentioning they make series like the Seki Magoroku series, but don’t offer them as a set (yet), so there’s more options for mixing and matching with your knife block than you might think. ![]() We’ll try to cover them here as comprehensively as we can, with the exception of their limited releases. They put out quite a bit of content out there that’s helpful for beginners (or not-quite beginners who are too afraid to ask at this point), and like any good company wanting to stay in the good graces of its customers, they offer free sharpening on all their knives.Īt the moment, Shun produces seven different sets, and even though they’re all mostly Japanese-style, there are a few differences that separate them in terms of ideal use and skill level. ![]() One of the benefits of getting into Shun knives is they have a pretty decent customer service who are generally helpful for anyone who’s not exactly an expert. Whatever the price, Shun is a fantastic knife that makes either a great gift or addition to a block set you already have. Which is one reason we always enjoy reviewing them. A lot of chefs will tell you they’re also overpriced, and maybe they’re right, but Shun has a certain assurance of quality and style that you don’t get with a lot of other brands. Shun knives are often hailed as top of the line for Japanese cutlery.
