But you don’t need access to Tapbots’s sales figures to surmise that Tweetbot was the company’s sole tentpole. Tapbots does too - Calcbot (a calculator and unit converter for both iOS and Mac) and Pastebot (my personal favorite clipboard history utility for Mac - I’ve been using it for years now). As I mentioned last month, The Iconfactory has a bunch of other great commercial apps (and games). Twitterrific and Tweetbot weren’t side projects - they were flagship products from small companies. It’s more of an “ Oh shit, we’re fucked” situation. That left each company with thousands and thousands of customers with months left on those subscriptions, but no functionality.įinancially, this isn’t a “ Huh, yeah, that must kinda suck” situation. A less obvious but no less serious problem is that the leading clients, Tapbots’s Tweetbot and The Iconfactory’s Twitterrific, were monetized through annual subscriptions. The obvious problem for developers of such clients, of course, is that Twitter clients are useless without the ability to connect to Twitter. Twitter didn’t even make it official that third-party clients had been banned until a week of confusion and dread had passed. You surely recall that last month, in a fit of pique, Elon Musk spitefully pulled the plug on third-party Twitter clients with no notice whatsoever, in the most chickenshit way imaginable.

![]() Armor increased to 200 from 175, speed reduced to 160 from 175. > Should now be a capable interceptor able to defend a wide area against missiles and fighters instead of an escort for big ships. Rebuild time reduced to 15s from 30, OP cost unchanged at 10. HP reduced to 750 from 950, armor reduced to 75 from 100, speed increased to 250 from 160. ![]() Gun damage per shot increased to 140 from 125 (dps of 175 per gun from 156), range increased to 600 from 500. > There's a fierce competition in the 12OP range, I hope the reduced rebuild-time will make up for the loss of the single Thunderbolt. Rebuild time reduced to 15s from 34, OP cost raised to 12 from 9. > Now a solid Broadsword replacement with half the kinetic damage potential, but much more HE with the blade attacks. Rebuild time reduced to 12s from 26, OP cost unchanged at 8. Covet handgun DPS doubled to 150 from 75 (stat card is also much clearer). > Mix-and-match of Wanzer and non-Wanzer wings is now possible with the Gantry, this should allow more versatility in using cheaper wings to draw fire away from the expensive units. > Thus the Wanzer Gantry hullmod has been removed from several ships. > At the same time, the Gantry has been turned into a tool to make Wanzers great on select hulls rather than an OP tax to make them usable at all on regular carrier. > Hopefully this will make them more usable outside of Diable ships without relying on the Gantry hullmod crutch to prevent snowballing. > This is an attempt at finding a new balancing paradigm for Wanzers. No longer require "wanzer-exclusive" complements to apply its effect! Now adds one extra craft to all installed wanzer wings (instead of reducing rebuild times), Now exclusively built into the Storm, Gust and Pandemonium (and added to the Gulf because why the hell not), OP costs have been spread out upward a lot. Now all have default rebuild times closer to regular wings (around + 10 to 20% longer than regular fighters instead of + 100 to +200%), Massive balance pass that aims to make the Wanzers more usable on regular carriers, buff up a few ships that have been a bit too squishy for a while but also tone down a handful of weapons that have on the other hand crept in power a bit too far. Added a pair of bounties to point the player toward the Virtuous, and the Gulf if you don't have IBBs enabled. Removed non built-in Dampened Mounts hullmod. > This is to the Hayle what the Daze is to the Haze. Has a mixed mobility+defense ship system. ![]() Added Coanda-class frontline destroyer: A heavy destroyer hull with many small turrets and a medium missile hardpoint to bully smaller ships and distract bigger ones. Fixed issue with the Coanda-class' system that could give unlimited speed when spammed. To help them carry their missions, most ships tend to saturate the enemy's PD with swarms of micro-missiles.Ī typical successful engagement against Diable Avionics' fleets generally requires a solid phalanx of anti-fighter weapons to break the initial Wanzer and missile waves and a decisive counter-strike while their carriers are still rebuilding their strike-craft support. The subtility they add is that their ships are generally individually slightly inferior to Vanilla ones, but synergize very well with their wings of Wanzers: mech-like strike-crafts that pack a superior punch but susceptible to enemy fire. The Diable Avionics Corporation plays similarly to Mid-tech: they use their superior mobility to choose their engagements and overwhelm isolated targets. Having problems running mods?

The access to this area is limited, during the day, only to those passengers whose cabins are in the Havana Area. One of “Carnival Horizon’s” innovation is the Havana Area, a themed private and exclusive area, with cabins, open bars and a an Infinity Pool. The interior fittings are of an extremely high level quality comfort, offering a wide range of onboard entertainments, such as an IMAX 3D cinema, a brewery with onboard craft beer production, restaurants, theatres, shops and wellness centers. The units of the “Vista” class are a new technological benchmark, in Europe and worldwide, in terms of cutting-edge layout, extremely high performance and high quality technical solutions. The new unit, sister ship of “Carnival Vista”, the largest ship which Fincantieri has ever built for the Carnival Cruise Line’s fleet, delivered in Monfalcone in April 2016, will have a gross tonnage of 133,500 tons, be 323 meters long and accommodate more than 6,400 people onboard, including the staff. This marks the third consecutive time the ship has achieved a perfect U.S.P.H inspection score. Inspection Score for Third Consecutive Time Carnival Victory scored 100 during its recent United States Public Health (U.S.P.H.) inspection which took place in Miami. The ceremony was attended, among others, by Richard Morse, Senior Vice President Hotel Operations of Carnival Corporation, Fabrizio Timossi, Project Manager of Carnival Cruise Line, and Antonio Quintano, Director of the Marghera shipyard. MaThree in a Row Carnival Victory Achieves Perfect U.S.P.H. Godmother of the ceremony was Clementina Zecchin, employee of Fincantieri’s shipyard in Marghera. The launching was introduced by the traditional and well-wishing “coin ceremony”, consisting, according to an ancient shipbuilding custom, in welding a silver dollar on the last deck of the ship. Interior fittings will now begin, leading the ship to its delivery, scheduled in spring 2018. Trieste, Ma– “ Carnival Horizon”, the new ship of Carnival Cruise Line, brand of the Carnival Group, the world's largest cruise ship operator, was launched today at Fincantieri’s shipyard in Marghera. ![]() 20% Discount for Everyone ElseĮven if you don’t reach your target this year, you can still get 20% off the regular price of Scrivener by entering the discount code HAPPYCAMPER23 into the coupon code text field of our online web store.

NOTE: This guide is not being actively reviewed or updated, and is currently retired. ![]() Each of these decisions will lead the player down a different path, resulting in a vastly different view of the main plot points. The player has the choice of helping the girl, joining the abductors, or ignoring the situation altogether. Immediately upon entering Rokkotsu Pass, the player is confronted by a group of samurai attempting to kidnap a young girl. The Akadama wish to expel the government forces from the pass, and plan to sabotage the Kurou family's attempt to sell the foundry.Ĭaught in the middle of this power struggle are the village peasants, who are likely to be oppressed regardless of who is in control.Īlthough the story in Way of the Samurai follows the basic framework provided above, the actual events that the player participates in depend greatly on the decisions made while playing. ![]() This decision by the Kurou puts them in direct opposition to the Akadama clan, whose leader, Kitcho, is the illegitimate son of Tesshin Kurou. In an attempt to secure funds, the Kurou intend to sell the iron foundry to the government. ![]() Led by Tesshin Kurou, the family is resisting the government's attempt to take control of the pass, however the samurai cannot compete with the modern army. The second faction is the Kurou family, who previously held sway in Rokkotsu Pass and continue to exert their influence on the people through extortion and intimidation. The government army is well-funded and equipped with modern weaponry, including firearms and cannons, making them formidable opponents for the former samurai lords. The first is the new centralized government, whose army has been sweeping through the country securing power from the local warlords. Three separate factions are competing for control of the Pass, each with their own agenda. Rokkotsu Pass is a sparsely populated village, whose main attractions include a railway crossing, a small restaurant, and an iron foundry. The game begins with the player, taking the role of a wandering rōnin by the name of Kenji, arriving in a fictional outpost called Rokkotsu Pass. ![]() The story of Way of the Samurai takes place in 1878, after the fall of the Tokugawa shogunate and the start of the Meiji period, during the Satsuma Rebellion, a time when the samurai who were once at the top of Japanese society are all but outlawed. Way of the Samurai was also released on PlayStation Portable under the name Samurai Dō Portable ( 侍道ポータブル, Samurai Dō Pōtaburu) on Septemin Japan, prior to the release of Way of the Samurai 3. It was based on the western versions of the game, and as such, it included the non-sword weapons, bugfixes, the exit for ending the game early, hard mode, and horizontal text of those versions. A notable feature of the game is the branching storyline, which allows player decisions to radically alter the course of the story.Īn updated version titled Samurai Kanzenban ( 侍〜完全版〜, "Samurai Complete Edition" ) was released in Japan in 2003. Set in 19th century Japan, the player takes on the role of a rōnin who wanders into a remote village and becomes involved in a conflict between rival clans. Way of the Samurai, known in Japan as Samurai ( 侍), is a PlayStation 2 action-adventure game developed by Acquire and released in 2002.
