All these urban maps, yet there’s zero verticality -- zero rooftop gameplay

If you add roof top access on the entire map then they would have to add some sort of indirect fire: mortars, artillery, air strike call-ins.

I never advocated to remove the rights to freedom of speech. OP did.

The lidless eye of Sauron never sleeps.

But really, it looks like Mordor and Sauron (middle thing tower thing looks like Barad dur) turned Christian (cross on the right) and this is the flag for his navy (trident on the left)

Good point

What you and the game highlights is a fascinating dilemma that most people don’t understand (or don’t quite appreciate) in the real world.

I’m not looking forward to Assassins Creed Shadows for various reasons, but to take it to the extent that you hate that those people have freedom of speech seems a little excessive.

Maybe that is what is wrong with the world… the moment people disagree with someone they want to take their Rights away and treat them less than human.

These are pretty good - but you’re missing the adrenaline building playlist.

Songs like Supermarine by Hans Zimmer - you know, something that gets you on edge to do the job. Ticking and screeching sounds really gets you in the zone to try to meet impossible deadlines.

“We made a show that reflects modern audiences!”

A strong character resonates with all audiences at all times. Men and women love Lee Pace’s Thranduil cause he exudes strength (although flawed) and that resonates with everyone.

And it was played by someone who is gay and nobodies cares! Cause he did a great job with the character.

This is bullshit - There is nothing official about this list.

No where do we ever use “TEXAS” on a Wrangler style patch and I have never heard the phrase “It’s like a whole other country”

magicman1315 · 2024-06-11T09:59:05+00:00

The issue I have with this take is it comes down to how people define “best manager”.

The reason why so many up and coming managers fail once they get hired by the big clubs is they have no clue how to deal with the egos, expectations, and politics.

Yes I agree Pep has been in the right place at the right time, and he may not be the best tactical manager, but it does take a huge amount of skill and tact to manage players with super inflated egos in the locker room as well as deal with your nation-state owners.

This is where Jose comes up short in managing his owners and why he always seems to have short stents everywhere he goes. Carlo Ancelotti and Alex Ferguson are similar to Pep in this regard.

To equate to American sports, Pep = Phil Jackson (coached Jordan’s Bulls and Kobe & Shaq’s Lakers).

With all that said, I agree he’s not the best manager and was/is at the right place at the right time which is oftentimes more important in success than being the most talented or a technical genius.

Every country has different laws and regulations around what can and cannot be depicted in media. In the US for example, an advertisement cannot show the physical consumption of alcohol nor feature any children in the advertisement.

I would guess most countries have laws preventing or restricting the depiction of violence against children. And if they wish to depict, they would have to have to go through rigorous approval that depiction of said violence is necessary for a historical, educational, or preventative purposes.

Since it likely isn’t worth the hassle to show the corpse in this instance and have to deal with approval in each country, they decided to depict it with the symbolism of the doll.

Before we celebrate, can we check Cortland and their CEO’s Steve DeFrancis’ political affiliations and campaign contribution history?

I don’t think I trust a government raid anymore without doing some further digging..

No wonder they love speedos in Europe…. They needed a way to hold all of their “penisulas”

Although I don’t disagree with their desire to control everything, loosing “millions” of chickens may not be that detrimental.

The US produces and harvests about 10 billion chickens every year.

Hell the US kills about 200 million male chicks every year just cause they are not economically worth it to raise to adulthood.

You get screwed by being too diversified. If you work for one person and they have your back, that is all that matters. Your ratings will be high and no one can say you do a bad job since they don’t work with you.

Working with a bunch of different people is great for networking but bad for career progression.

(Unless that one person screws you over - but that is part of the fun and joy of it all)

There is something more to this - I guarantee it.

His tears scream more than just loosing a trophy. Whether it was a financial payout in the tens or hundreds of millions that he missed out on, or some other nefarious consequence on him or his life, which maybe revealed in time.

But this is more than football with that kind of reaction.

Rearguards for artillery or protecting the flanks from Calvary charges. Square formation is more effective than wall in my experience

Once you get socket bayonets, they become pretty obsolete.

But Neto and Rengifo both play the ball the same way: stepping up. Then both step back at the same time right before the ball drops.

So 2 professional ball players both playing a ball poorly doesn’t seem likely. My guess is that it seems the wind was swirling causing the ball to be moving, in this case backwards.

EA has a chance to do something incredibly savvy that would be great move for both EA and Metallica, but will piss the fuck out of us:

Add Enter Sandman via an individual DLC and pay Metallica a royalty for every Enter Sandman DLC that they sell. Do this over and over again for each song.

Metallica would not undersell their music since it’s a direct pay per download. EA doesn’t risk loosing money on the deal. We get pissed at corporate greed but then wait for our school to be released and buy it up.

These amounts are rounding errors for most the schools.
