Heart of Thorns Expansion

 

>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2D76uEgrxDM&feature=youtu.be


Guild Wars 2 is gearing up to deliver nine elite specializations in the Heart of Thorns expansion, which will fundamentally change-up your class. The Reaper will switch up Necromancers entirely, allowing them to use greatswords to enter combat as melee participants, with all of the dark goodness they can normally expect from spellcasting.

Just like the video for the Dragonhunter, it's a short, low-key demonstration of what the Reaper can do in-game. Except this time, the Reaper looks incredibly badass.

-- Cities: Skylines--

Patch 1.1.0

 

Today we are proud and excited to bring you our first large content update: Cities: Skylines 1.1.0 - European Theme. This update is, as promised, totally free to all our players - current and future. 

So what are you getting today? 

• Over 50 European style buildings
• Wall-to-wall buildings enabling players to build those European streets and neighbourhoods
• Three new starter maps
• Tunnels, one of the community’s most requested features
• A number of Asset Editor additions including the ability to import custom vehicles
• A multitude of smaller cosmetic additions and bug fixes.

Please note: 

• The European style buildings are a map theme, meaning you will need to play a map in the European biome in order to see them.
• Many mods and (some) custom assets will not work with 1.1.0 and will need updating by their author. We have worked hard to cause as few conflicts as possible with popular mods, yet this is a substantial update and with the code & functionality changes some issues have been impossible to avoid. Going forward we aim to find a solution where we can work with our core modders pre-launch to give them ample time to adjust their creations before the public have access.

Our brand manager (the handsome guy you've seen in several videos) has the following to say about the expansion plans for Cities: Skylines.

“Cities: Skylines will continue to follow the traditions set by other recent Paradox releases such as Crusader Kings II and Europa Universalis IV of paid expansions combined with large updates of free content ensuring that all players, whether they choose to purchase the expansions or not, will have plenty of new features to look forward to. One of the major differences, however, between those titles and Cities: Skylines will be that minor DLC updates will be uncommon. The majority of content updates will be significant upgrades and additions. 

Going forward, we will focus on giving away the main features for free and improving the modding tools, while also selling major expansions around new mechanics. But we will also continue to offer free content such as new buildings and road types.”

[Kishoshima Dragonash]

You're all good Angelin.. its still a work in progress and Esva's trying to make sure he gets the formula right is all.. so any feedback you guys can give would help a lot.  Definitely glad you're enjoying it tho

Top left link should go to website. You can click on the YouTube button on the bottom right to go to the video in YouTube and watch it there if you wish.

Getting that animation, gif'd would be great for our twitch streamers.

 

This one is SUPER long, entertaining nonetheless. We'll get it refined!

[Kishoshima Dragonash]

Yeah I kinda mentioned that at the end of the cast.. Esva and I kinda got into an a rhythm, fell back into the way we did things in the old Ordo Cast and lost track of time lol.. turned into us having fun talkin about vidya games.  Probably wont be so bad in the future when there's more Ordo news and less gaming news.  Up to you guys to have that happen tho.
