The killers are not born. With rare exceptions. If you mix the genes of selected bastards, and grow the result in a test tube, then a perfect killer may well be obtained at the exit.

Over the past one and a half decades, forty -seventh has deserved and literally suffered his reputation as the most virtuoso and elusive killer. However, when it all began, his fate could have developed completely different.

In 1998, in Copenhagen a small and so far unknown Io-Interactive studio, a subsidiary of Reto-Moto. And the development of a completely ordinary game boiled in her bowels. The project manager Jacob Andersen said that they were going to release a very typical shooter. The pen of the pen, so to speak. Anthound Murderer, in the style of John Wu.

At that moment, Danish actor David Bateson turned up very successfully. At first he was preparing only to voice the hero, but later his appearance was sighed from him. And to this day, you can’t find the best actor for the role of Hitman – it is a pity that the producers of the big cinema do not understand this.

In one of the initial scenes of the game, the hero escaped from the laboratory. And in order to go around the guards – changed into one of them … It was this idea that the creators dramatically affected: the creators decided to use it more often. And at about this stage, the producer joined the developers Thief 2 Jonas Enorot. And he could tell a lot about how good stealth works ..

So born Hitman: Codename 47 , The first episode of the "murderous" epic. Perhaps the most sentimental. It was in the first part that the bald killer met his parents. With all five. And killed everyone and everyone – voluntarily Ositv, so to speak.

I wandered from childhood from childhood

Hitman's troubles began long before his birth.

It so happened that five comrades served in the ranks of the French foreign legion. And all, without exception, achieved considerable success in their work. Lee Hon became the Chinese Machiavelli, the genius of the criminal world and the head of the powerful clan of the Triad. Pablo Ochoa built a cocaine empire. Franz Fuchs scared the whole world to the whole world with his held and future terrorist attacks. And Boris Deryuzhka showed the presence of a commercial vein and became an arms baron for envy to all Nicholas Cage.

The fifth fellow soldier chose a different path. Otto Ort-Mayer settled in a laboratory hidden under a certain Romanian madhouse. He took possession of DNA samples of four friends and added his own to bake, like a roll, the best mercenary in the world.

It did not work right away. Many, very many clones showed their professional unusual, although they were not destroyed. And only one found in himself all the necessary qualities – forty -seventh in a row. Ort Maire helped the younger murderer to escape from his own laboratory.

Free, in the fresh air, the young hitman quickly hit the network of an international agency supplying the services of hired killers. The forty -seventh immediately established itself as a selected operative, and Diana Bernwood became his permanent liaison. Perhaps the only one who could call a friend forty -seventh.

Dr. Ort-Mayer, using his wealth, “ordered” all his colleagues from the agency. And Hitman perfectly coped with every murder. If by the canon, then Hon was chopped off by Katana, Pablo Ochoa was shot from a machine gun, Franz Fuchs choked on a shot, and Boris Deryuzhka, aka Arkady Egorov, exploded with his luxurious car.

But the forty -seventh did not calm down. Now he found out that the source of all the troubles was an orth-major. The clone returned to the “Cradle”, killed all his brothers of the new model – much more obedient – and turned his neck to the creator. And all this-to the luxurious depressive-aggressive melodies of Jesper Kid. The composer, by the way, has long remained faithful Hitman.

At the turn of the century, it was difficult to imagine a third -person game that would not be a fighter. And Hitman: Codename 47 in the vast majority of cases not only did not have to shoot, but also punished for it. Unless the second chapter – the same, in Colombia – was almost completely dedicated to shootings.

The rest of the time the hero changed clothes under the guard to merge with the team and take suspicion from himself. Quietly strangled the victims and hid lifeless bodies. Thoughtfully walked in level, looking for the path to victory. Dressing has remained a chip of Hitman and the monopoly of the entire franchise. Only a few projects – like “death to spies” – dared to borrow this experience.

However, our hero is not just a soulless genetic monster. After the murder of his, hmm, he thought. Is he ready to give all his life to the service of the god of death? “No,” decided the forty -seventh, left the agency and disappeared into Sicily, where the kind of soul, the man, the father of Vittorio, closed his eyes to the sins of the new novice and took him to church. For a couple of years, Hitman raised tomatoes, looked after the garden and lived in harmony with himself and the world around him.

Of course, this idyll quickly came to an end – already in the second part, Hitman 2: Silent Assassin. Firstly, because the success of the first part could not allow Io-Interactive to leave forty-seventh a church gardener forever. Secondly, because Vittorio's father interfered with the Sicilian mafia and was stolen. Hiring the heart, the humble minister of God again took out his “Silverbollers”, which have already become an independent symbol of the game – along with a booze.

IO-Interactive employees realized that neither shootouts nor spectacular fights are required from their game. The mechanics of silent murder was complemented and improved. The countless minions of the victims of the hitman fell ill with paranoia and bit it at the first opportunity. It is enough to switch from step to running a cowardly, and each guard in the district will chop: “Guard!" – and will not shut up until his death. Perhaps it was even unnecessary ..

But on the other hand, the planning of the murders reached a new level, the locations overgrown with details, the arsenal expanded and replenished with such wonderful things as chloroform. According to the results of the level, the game pretended the “purity” of execution – unlike Codename 47, where only the murder of civilian.

However, there was no more money in Silent Assassin. The bald killer did not receive fees and was not spent on anything, but he could choose equipment for the mission. But the highest rating – the “quiet killer” – was rewarded with a special weapon. For example, a powerful shotgun. It’s not that the bald ninja really needed a shotgun, but the desire to assemble the weapons room was redeemed.

In addition, in pursuit of the kidnappers, Heatman brought to Russia. Snow, Petersburg, cops, SVD – well, in fact, what else happens in Russia? The Hitman 2 had enough selected cranberries, but the domestic player still passed it with pleasure.

Murderer on the contract

Another thing is Hitman: Contracts, the following part. Although it is difficult to call her next. The only global storyline is a painful dying of forty -seventh. When falling into delusional dreams, Khitman recalls his past tasks … Well, we "pass these dreams".

The most remembered detail Contracts was the atmosphere, extremely gloomy and literally black. The quintessence of the new style was the level in the Masochistian club, where the target pervert was the goal of the pedifier. And the best weapon for the villain was a kitchen knife hidden in the chicken.

Other missions almost did not lag behind the originality: either the stiff English lords, then the Dutch bikers … But we did not wait for the promised cunning AI. With a reservation – carriers of a similar form or uniforms could instantly recognize the setup if you loom under their nose.

Some tasks that are seeking to the wounded hero come from the first Hitman: Codename 47, were now furnished much richer and more cunning. There are a lot of ways to use ordinary objects as a weapon. Why not strangle the bastard with a pillow?

But the real triumph came to Io Interactive in 2006, after buying the studio by Eidos. The idea of ​​harmless things as a weapon was deployed and received Hitman: Blood Money , To this time, the top of the entire series. Now the forty -seventh was offered not just to quietly eliminate the victim. Impercitage of an accident https://sister-site.org/slotonauts/, accident or suicide was an ideal murder.

Almost any task was hidden in itself a witty surprise. Alcoholic in the clinic, strangle the bar, while he is practicing. The theater is replaced by a fake gun with a combat. A careless person to shove into the river to alligators or in the engine compartment of the steamer. And if you season the grill with kerosene, the goal will burn itself. Locations cracked from possibilities! Although an accident implied only one or two or three chains of actions, because the rest opened an incredible scope for fun.

From the first game at Blood Money, fees for work returned. Pure execution meant good payment, lack of fines and a high rating. And for the proceeds of the forty -seventh dollars could improve weapons and buy cunning bells -like like a suitcase, to which the frame of the metal detector. As for improvements – at least butt, even clips, even trunks and sights. I have long dreamed of equipping a shotgun to a muffler? But who will forbid you something? And put the optics on it, and the laser target indicator! And what difference does it make that the barrel hung with improvements will hang in the arsenal, because you decided to go through the game without unnecessary noise?

Those who missed an intelligent story got a beautifully set bike about how the director of the FBI hunted everything and hunted for a hitman. In the footsteps of the agency, another company was launched, Franchise, whose owners well wanted to create their clones, no worse than forty -seventh. And at their disposal there was nothing better than the scattered letters of the orth-major-the rest of the data Hitman hid. Therefore, their clones grew rapidly, they were old and vicious to were albinos.

The conflict came already to the highest political arena when the US president decided to allow cloning. Everything ended with an amazing gambit. Diana Bernwood, a fighting friend of the hitman and a coherent agency, poisoned the bald with a special poison and handed over to the pursuers. And when he was already equipped on the last journey – into the camer of cremation in order to destroy DNA forever – – a kiss with a life -giving antidote returned to life.

The forty -seventh laid all the ill -wishers who were going to drink for his health at his funeral ..

And disappeared.

The deafening success turned out to be one of the reasons why Square Enix bought Eidos with all the sponsored studios. Unfortunately, on the fate of a genetically modified killer, this affected bad. Deus EX somehow got out, but Hitman is not. And there was a pressure on the development studio, and then EIDOS was then dismissed, and the staff was cut.

Do not touch the woman

Square Enix has always focused on a strong script. Hitman: Absolution He set himself the goal of revealing the personality of the Heathman and crushed a unique gameplay with scripts, linear levels and vigorous enemies.

Most of the levels have lost the wealth that was in Blood Money. Often there was not even a victim – you should only get out of point A to point B. The levels that were more or less like the old are literally a few pieces, and those, in truth, did not shine with an abundance of contents. Although they are remembered in appearance-a stripper bar, the sun-flooded town or Chinatown-and everyone is replete with small details. For the elaboration of the world, they did not spare efforts.

The masking system almost died. Dressing under a policeman is exposed by cops in a matter of seconds. Here, however, the standard superpowancy helps a little – "instinct". It allows you to look through the walls, but there was no more card.

In some places, shelters, so to speak, are equipped: in the guise of a cap of forty -seventh, a donut shows his eyes, in the guise of a cook, he hypnotizes an empty pot, and pretending to be a cleaner, violently rubs a mop from linoleum … In a new outfit it is still impossible to defile among enemies among the enemies.

Therefore, many passed Hitman: Absolution, without removing a company costume. For what? Hid behind the dresser and steal, the benefit of the shelter system is.

And the story talked about how the agency ordered Diana Bernwood to kill Diana and how Heatman killed her, about genetically sophisticated, but useless, like a window on a submarine, a girl that Hitman undertook to take care, about the flight from his native office, who now hunts him, oh. mercenaries of model appearance, packed in close latex costumes of nuns, are a ready-made idea for porn parody.

And now Hitman at a crossroads. The plot in the new part seemed to stop putting pressure on the game – good. There are huge locations rich in ways-roads-also good. Stlas mechanics and changing clothes remained the same – already not bad.

* * *

Let's hope that Absolution has taught both Square Enix and Io-Interactive a lot. The new Hitman, without a subtitle, comes out episodes, and the first has already appeared on March 11 (and we managed to evaluate it). The action takes place in Paris. Play and decide whether Morocco and Italy will cost your attention in April, well, all other episodes – throughout the year. And whoever wait for autumn will be able to buy everything at once in one box, as usual.

Good luck, forty -seventh! Do not lose heart, don't shoot past. We are waiting.

Moscow-New York-Moscow, twenty hours on an airplane, thirty kilometers on foot in two and a half days, and all this for the sake of one goal-the presentation of Next@acer. Whether the event was worth such efforts? Definitely. For Acer, it has become a kind of plan for a whole year, and for you and me is another confirmation that something strange is happening on the market. What exactly, we will tell at the end of the article, but for now – about the presentation itself.

From all the guns

► XPLOVA X5.

Surprisingly, they opened it not at all with new laptops, but an unusual cycle computer Xplova X5. Outwardly it resembles a protected smartphone. A large bright case, a large display and a hefty eye of the camera at the upper end.

The functionality is rich, but strange. In addition to standard speed indicators, pulse, energy spent and the kilometer passed, X5 retains routes in the cloud, builds beautiful charts of success (or failures), and also removes what is happening around. The camera is launched in manual and automatic modes.

For example, you scored a speed of 40 km/h – the recording started, jumped the pulse under 150 – again saved for descendants. Who and for what reason will look at such “imperisales”, find it difficult to say, but the cyclists like this thing, last year Acer sold 20,000 such computers.

► Acer GrandPad.

The next surprise from Acer was … "Grandfather Planste" (the real name of the series is Acer GrandPad). And this undertaking is much more interesting and more serious than a bicycle complex.

At first glance, everything is simple. They took a seven -inch tablet, simplified the Android interface to the limit so that older people would not get confused, and send on sale. Something like this about this undertaking today everyone writes and jokes.

In fact, Acer did much more. Firstly, she threw out wired charging and will supply GrandPad only with magnetic dock stations, which is much more convenient for the elderly. Secondly, when delivering to the tablet, they will upload all the necessary contacts in advance immediately with photos. Thirdly, “tablets” are not going to sell directly, but will be handed out by subscription. For $ 60 per month, they will provide not only a tablet, but also a fully paid LTE sign with a connected special tariff. In general, the idea is excellent and useful, it is a pity that it is unlikely to get to Russia.

For work

► Acer Chromebook 14 for work.

There will not be a great many "chrombuk" to our country and a great. However, they are not offended for them. The operating system is limited, and from a great set of models presented on NEXT@acer, only Chromebook 14 for Work is of interest, which was the first in this segment to receive the I7 of the sixth generation, and also acquired a funny option: when ordering on the lid (from a wildly impractical for Gorilla Glass 3 laptop) You can place your company logo.

► Acer Switch Alpha 12.

Simple laptops turned out to be much more interesting. Acer showed a fresh Switch Alpha 12 hybrid. According to the characteristics-a standard workhorse with a clicking 12-inch display. We do not really like such hybrid schemes, but the essence is different. There are no fans in Alpha 12, the real one is responsible for cooling! How effective it is – we do not know, but it definitely does not make noise.

► Acer Aspire S 13.

Another gift for business people is an updated S-series of ultrabooks. Aspire S 13 model was presented with pomp. They called the "thinnest system with Dolby Audio" and said that with similar characteristics it is half the cheaper MacBook Air (not true, by the way, the difference is only 200 bucks).

In fact, however, everything is much more prosaic. In thickness, the laptop did not go far from the very first model in the series (S 3) and boast of only a pleasant design and a productive filling. From experience we can say – a good choice for the Internet, films and travel.

For us

Well, now let's move on to the most extensive and interesting part for us – game. Like most technology manufacturers, Acer has gone with the head in this subject, and the news of more than enough.

To begin with, Acer now has game mice, keyboards and even a headset. And they acted with them competently-they did not come up with a bicycle and sculpt it on Chinese "Noname" posvs, and ordered all the models from the Danish SteelSeries. It turned out both beautiful and reliable.

In addition to Acer with all hands for VR. The presentation was brought by all the more or less well-known helmets and announced that all computers and gaming laptops of the company are optimized for virtual reality. In life, this means that in all systems there are simply video cards from NVIDIA, in whose drivers the VR is registered, but this does not change the essence. Helms in Acer love and believe that they have a future. And this is a good sign, because we, too, for VR in all its manifestations.

► Predator G1.

We saw one more pleasant novelty for us-mini-p. Acer Predator G1 only 11 cm wide and about 42 cm high got into this category. They supply it in a suitcase on wheels, where, in addition to the PC itself, a mouse with a keyboard also fit. In our country, the chip is relatively useless, but in the West it is popular in Lan VEDERS.

By the way, the configuration of the mini-PK is worthy-and a lot of RAM, and Core i7, and a full-size video card of any level (up to GTX Titan X). In the advantages of the system, we will write down and an unusual appearance with a bunch of leaning panels and stands for headphones. Everything is made of flimsy plastic, but it looks great.

For those who do not like small computers, Acer also showed standard system options. Predator G3 and G6 are collected in the body similar in design and materials, but already in the Middle Tower form factor. Standard components, ordinary capabilities … from similar devices differ only in design, name and normal guarantee.

We were much more interested in another direction – projectors. This time, the classic Predator Z650 was modestly silent, but they showed a much more promising model – Predator Z850. According to the parameters, this is a standard DLP projector with a bunch of characteristic minuses and pluses. Resolution – Full HD, there is 3D STEREO support, a “rainbow” is visible in dynamic scenes, the lamp lives from 20,000 hours, and the brightness (general, not color) is 3000 lumens.

► Predator Z850.

Attracts another. Z850 is the first game projector in our memory, so to speak, near field. It does not need to be hung on the wall opposite from the screen. It is placed on a Tropicanza sister sites place familiar to a regular TV (where all consoles and TV residents stand) and with the help of a lens unfolds an image of up to 90 inches on the wall on the wall. Cons? There is one … price. Acer for some reason refused a regular lamp and put a laser. The price tag immediately took off to $ 5,000. For a laser, this is inexpensive (on average they cost $ 10,000), but for a game projector, in our opinion, frighteningly.

► Predator 17 x.

However, Z850 is not the only expensive product from Acer. At the presentation, we also found the Predator 17 x laptop, for which 300,000 rubles will be asked in our country. For what? For a new trend-full-fledged, desktop, GTX 980 (yes, without prefix M). In the performance of Acer, the video card should take a very decent frequency of 1338 MHz according to the processor.

Purely for reference, under his ASUS GX700, the same chip takes only 1227 MHz, and in home design the standard for it is considered 1216 MHz. Took such frequencies thanks to an unusual cooling system. In addition to the standard two turbines on the CPU and GPU in the laptop there is another fan, in the center of the front line, directly between the two frontal speakers.

* * *

Next@Acer turned out to be unusually rich in events and very interesting. But, oddly enough, such a variety is more frightened. There is a feeling that the industry is at a crossroads and manufacturers simply do not know what to come up with good sales. Hence the bicycle computers, and tablets for the elderly, and computers in suitcases, and even laptops based on home video cards. If you translate into a regular language: "We are looking for an idea that will shoot and provide good sales". It's good or not – it's hard to say. But we, amateurs of iron, are clearly won.

That we all plan on long and do not have the New Year and Christmas holidays for long walks? Go through all the bought games! No, not even like that: first buy on sale, and then go through all the available games.

A wonderful plan, ready to subscribe to the whole team. But it can be made to it some changes and improvements. Especially lucky in this regard for those who have a Xbox One S or Xbox One X prefix on the shelf. After all, they can use the convenient Xbox Game Pass service!

What is the essence of the "game pass"? You pay monthly a small amount, 599 rubles, and in return you get unlimited access to a whole game library. Among them, both the new and tested masterpieces, and small, but significant projects that I always wanted to meet, but it was a pity to spend money.

Let's see what fresh appeared in the Game Pass pantry for New Year's holidays.

Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain

This game is unlikely to need recommendations. Metal Gear Solid 5 is the last project, in the credits of which the name Hideo Kojima is next to the name Konami… more precisely, not worth. But we are still in the know! This game was lit up at once in several nominations and only almost reached the top three of the best Games of the Year in 2015.

Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain became the largest in the MGS series even though some of the content was seized from it, in some places, stabbed in the living. This is a crazy "sandbox" in which each goal can be achieved by a dozen different ways. And also this is a game that connects many destinies and plot lines, as well as piercingly and perfectly completes the long -term saga. It is hard to imagine that after that someone wants to continue, and even made without the participation of the series of the series.

If you still have not met the game, bring it to your festive calendar.

GEARS of WAR 4

Even those who hates militants and shooters and have never shot from a virtual rifle in their lives, have probably heard about Gears of War. The first part proved that in the dilapidated genre of a third-person action movie you can add something new, fresh. And this glorious tradition of surprising players survived to the last part at the moment, GEARS of WAR 4.

New heroes brought with them a new story and opportunities. Opponents are still smart, cunning and dangerous, and shelters still save the life of prudent fighters. Bright game situations do not allow you to get bored for a minute, fierce shootings alternate with leisurely and complete alarming research missions.

And do not forget about the main thing: there is a chainsaw here!

Mass Effect

If you are not yet familiar with the Mass Effect universe, then most likely, you only recently learned how to walk or finally discovered a wonderful new world of a video game. Honestly, we envy, because you have a meeting that will change your whole life and make the name of Shepard one of those that immediately cause a response in the soul.

The first part of the science fiction trilogy has launched a huge universe before us, in which humanity is not in the backyards, it certainly does not believe the fate of other worlds. And it is for us that the opportunity to change this alignment of forces falls out. And even if not everything turned out smoothly the first time, but the exciting story, amazing worlds and magnificent partners make the game a mandatory game for every self -respecting gamer.

Resident Evil HD

You are already scared? If not, then believe me: you will be very scared. And also painful and uncomfortable. The classic Resident Evil, published more than twenty years ago, did not even try to pretend to be a cheerful action movie with a shooting of crowds of zombies, and she tries to return to this state in new parts. The most difficult thing here is just to survive, because there are almost no cartridges, there is nowhere to wait for help, and the weakest enemy will not be difficult to break and delve the gaping hero delightfully.

In the remaster, the picture is not revolutionary, but noticeably improved. However, the most important thing is that the management is finally made humanly. And everything that seems obsolete, bulky and uncomfortable becomes in its place, you just have to understand and accept the rules of the local harsh game.

If you want to understand why later the later, beautiful and convenient parts of the series are scolding? Select Chris and get to the end.

Halo Wars: Expanded Edition

Ensemble Studios Given the Halo series to fans … Real Strategy Halo Wars!

In the gameplay, the authors of the game did not have wise and took already proven solutions from the series Age of Empires https://sister-site.org/richy-leo/. But, unlike a long -forgotten clone Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds , The game Halo Wars managed to maintain and convey the brightness and dynamism of the fights of the most famous shooter from Xbox. The story campaign came out short, but extremely emotional, battles – fleeting and exciting, and the game world consistent with the spirit of the original shooter.

The expanded publication makes the classical strategy of 2009 quite modern and saturates it with additional content. If you consider yourself a fan of strategies or a Halo series, put Halo Wars in the list of mandatory to familiarize.

Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee – New ‘N’ Tasty

To stand up to everyone, before us is another unlucking classic: a platform quest Oddworld , Released in 1997, and in 2014, caring carefully to the modern three-dimensional engine. The game will send us to the salvation of Aiba and his brothers-mudocons (yes, they are called so!) from evil gluccons trying to let eccentric creatures on food.

Next year the studio Oddworld inhabitants will release a new game about the adventures of Mudocon Abe – Oddworld: Soulstorm. To meet the premiere fully armed, you should get acquainted with the original source in advance.

Darksiders: Warmastered Edition

War will save the world. In real life, this formula rarely works, but in the original Darksiders, published in 2010, this is exactly what we had to do. One of the riders of the Apocalypse, war, went to Earth to prevent an unscheduled end of the world and save the planet. The game looks like a patchwork blanket from familiar heroes, plots and combat systems, but at the same time all pieces are kept extremely tight thanks to the neat and exciting game process.

Last year, the slasher Darksiders received a reprint of Warmastered Edition. No, the game did not look like a modern high-budget project, but this still does not bother anyone, because the main thing in it is the process itself!

Sherlock Holmes: The Devil’s Daughter

Studio Games series Frogwarees About Sherlock Holmes usually remains not in the focus of attention of adventure quests lovers. Perhaps often undeservedly. After all, where else can you feel yourself in the skin of the most famous detective, walk along London streets, conduct a thoughtful study of evidence, and finally triumphantly resolve a difficult matter!

The Devil’s Daughter, even if it has not become the best part of the Sherlock Holmes series, but it can still be advised to those who want to get acquainted with the controlled Watson. After all, all subsequent games will be even more interesting!

The World of Van Helsing: Deathtrap

Hearing the name of Van Helsing, you are waiting for dynamic fights with all evil spirits, gloomy heroes and plot with an admixture of mysticism and romance. The game Deathtrap in this regard is in the series The World of Van Helsing. Before us is a sessional action movie in the Tower Defense genre, with an apa-kettlely accurate mechanics and a minimum of stories.

If you like fights of strategic minds and tactical calculations, do not miss the game!

This War of Mine: The Little One

If the world still has players who are not familiar with the harsh simulator of survival in the occupied territories of This War of Mine, they have the opportunity to correct this universal injustice. The Little One supplement adds an additional factor to the joyless picture of hunger, cold, depression and dangers: children who are not too easy to take care of in peaceful time.

And now a minute of arithmetic. If we suddenly decide to buy all of the above games, you will have to spend 14,945 rubles. Even the most zealous dance will think about whether to leave such an amount for more pressing needs. At the same time, for only 599 rubles you can study other planets, save the world, investigate criminal cases and survive in a military rear for a month!

And for those who have only recently learned about the existence of Xbox Game Pass, there is a trial free period. Get it, and New Year's holidays for you will be saturated with a hundred wonderful games!

Third life driving,

Three centuries without sleep.

"You are not the only", the DDT group

Dawn. There are several hundred miles behind, in front of the pink mountains, and followed by the base, where I take the crabs. They are waiting for them there. And with the proceeds I can finally hire a new driver, update the suspension and buy a spitter kvass: it is now sold in any bar instead of beer. These guys simply conquered America … That's who you need to take an example!

On dusty hayvei of the distant states

The past of the series was released almost ten years ago, and almost all this time was an active development of the third part. Time, frankly, not small. And it is not spent in vain.

The new part abandoned us almost to the opposite end of the globe: in California. Moreover All landscapes In the game – real! The developers took four expeditions, drove more than ten thousand kilometers, and then painstakingly transferred everything they saw to the game. Of course, not in full size, but not very changing. The cities tried to squeeze the smaller ones, and the long participation of the road – on the contrary, so that the excessively long path would not get bored with us. But temporary proportions are fully preserved! That is, if from point A to point B, we will go in reality about 17 hours, then in the game it will take the same 17 hours. The volume of work is really impressive.

This is interesting: In total, about two thousand kilometers await us.

This step, which first caused a storm of indignation, should as a result of both domestic and foreign players. Americans will appreciate accuracy and will be able to ride in their favorite places, and we will learn a little more about mysterious USA. True, at first they are too mysterious. There is no normal card, you have to navigate by signs. The fact that they are in English interferes little, but the system of interchanges of an inexperienced player will be confused more than once. You can’t just take and turn around on the highway – you need to look for a special congress, do not drive it, do not go aside, not … in general, at first continuous torment. Then, as you learn the main routes, it will become easier. In the end, you will generally become an expert on California roads. But this does not mean that there will be no problems on the road.

Nothing affects controllability as the weather. And this is not about banal light-dark, no. The territory in the game is very extensive, and from each zone it is worth waiting for its surprises. Best, of course, when the gentle southern sun shines. But now a couple of hours passed, you drove into the depths of the mainland, and the sky was covered with clouds. Then it rained. Bad, but the order must be completed. In the mountains you will wait even greater misfortune: snow. But this is not the limit of failures. A couple of times you will fall into the “icy rain” when everything gets wet first, and then freezes and covers with a thin, but terribly slippery crust of ice. Management, already difficult, is complicated to the impossibility – at least sit in the motel! Physics in the game is reliable, so, unsuccessfully brakes on a wet slope, you run the risk of going down much faster than the plan. True, without cargo, some parts of the car and self -esteem. Moreover, the damage will also be calculated based on the fall of the fall: what they hit, it fell off. We can create anything with our car: from a torn down to the premature analysis of spare parts.

We will go to trucks soon, and while a few words about management. It is complicated. More precisely, “truckers 3” is a full -fledged simulator in which you will quickly feel the difference between good and bald rubber, powerful and not very engine, a van of horses and a beer tank. But to drive, damn it, it is also necessary according to the rules! Otherwise, evil policemen will catch up with you and fine you on a very impressive amount. The wrong oversight is punishable, but you still have to follow the situation on the road, do not go to the oncoming, do not interfere with others, not to provoke accidents … at least in the eyes of the ministers of the order.

Our second house, friend, faithful horse and pride

Truck, without exaggeration, is the main character of the game. Both for study and possibilities. The first thing that is immediately striking is a drawing. The car really looks like real.

This is interesting: If you carry a tank with anything, then in the back wings you can see perfectly what is happening from behind you, thanks to the reflection.

But it not only looks real, it also consists of such a wild number of details that any technical reference will envy. And all this diversity, from the engine to the last fastening, can break and interfere with life, which is with pleasure and does. You can delve into all car systems for a very long time for a service station and look for a breakdown. Well, or just pay a little more to the masters, although this does not guarantee the correct repair.

And at the stations you can make your car really unique. Who is the hunt to go for two days at the wheel of a rusted beaten and old truck?

This is interesting: On our continent, it is very rare to see traditional American “hooding” trucks, because the length of the road is limited by 24 meters, and in the USA – 28.

Starting with simple painting, in the future we can add many decorative details – from anti -wing to sieves. In addition to scenery, there are also useful improvements: for example, a device that automatically includes wipers when it starts rain.

Note: There are 14 trucks in total in the game.

In search of happiness

Now about a person who improves his tractor. His name is Nikolai Perepelov. He came to America to make money, first bought a small office, a truck and leaving a large amount in the account. Prepared well, you can’t say anything!

You can already hire a couple of hard workers at the initial funds (and buy them cars), and then go on flights yourself. So our transport empire will begin to develop.

This is interesting: There are more than two hundred types of goods in the game, which differ in value, fragility, weight, delivery routes and, of course, drawing.

In addition to the transportation of goods, we can take fellow travelers and participate in races. Both are better to combine with the main task, so income per unit time will increase significantly. And do not let the trends that can be found in the newspaper in the bar still. They are very well paid.

This is interesting: Be careful, picking up a fellow traveler on the road – they may turn out to be a robber! You will always be warned about this and other dangers.

Initially, we have access to bases in a pair of cities and a small range of goods. The better we will fulfill orders, the better the relationship and more profitable contracts. After you can begin to expand your influence, lengthen routes, purchase new trucks … And then the game smoothly goes to the manager. We need to hire drivers, choose cars and tasks for them, monitor competitors. You can still drive along the roads yourself, but the sense of it is noticeably smaller.

In addition to the economy, in the third part of the series, the plot finally appeared. True, it can be ignored. Although it is better not to do this, because during the plot we will acquire new friends, enemies, workers and even a beloved girl. And you also have to very closely chat with local police and mafia.

The return took place. These are all the same "truckers", but much brighter, more interesting and unusual. Trips to the Night California towns are very pacifying. Even for a moment you forget that two evil competitors hang on the tail, who must at all costs bypass in the speed of the delivery of crabs!

Verdict: Remarkably conveys the mysterious spirit of American freedom.

[[Break]]

Getting ready

The first thing to do before the game is to decide what you want: dentisting realism or complex, but still Arcades? In the first case, you should choose a view from the cab and a manual gearbox, as well as make all hot keys, of which quite a lot. In the second, select the view from above and automatic.

Note: Even with an automatic box, the reverse rate has to be turned on a separate key, and not a long press of the “brake”.

It is also worth thinking about choosing a difficulty level. The point is not only that you will have to learn the entire road atlas and drive as if you and the truck is a single organism. You will still begin to have problems with repair, refueling and the police. The value of fines and the cost of the repair will increase markedly. And it’s better not to start evacuation from the road and we’re talking about it, only having reached a hundred and finding breakdowns with your own strokes. So before the start of the game, weigh everything well.

Note: If you doubt which mode to choose, complete a couple of single orders and decide.

Start

So we are in the game. Where will we start? First of all, you should go to the office. There you need to hire at least one (or better two) car – let them work. And also, if you do not want to travel to the same places, open a representative office away from your hometown. Then we go … to the bar.

This is interesting: Game America is a slightly curious spectacle. The technique has already reached the projected holographic screens – and these are all its achievements. And a certain company captured the entire beer market and replaced the foamy drink, replacing it with its kvass, no less foam. This kvass will climb into your screen simply with wild perseverance. Spammers ..

There we choose the trend more extensively and fly to the supplier. Then take the goods and take where we need. For a long time this scheme will be our main source of income. For the first earned money, you need to improve the car: tires, suspension, engine, and also buy nitrogen oxide for especially important contracts.

Note: Always keep with you thousands of $ 20-30. You never know what awaits you on the road!

It makes no sense to change the tractor at this stage, except that the current one really offends your taste. We expand the influence zone and bring the number of drivers to 4-5 people. The plot is better to develop in parallel with this. You can take fellow travelers, but you won’t earn much on this, or you’ll lose it at all. Choose people if you really are on the way.

This is important: Look carefully at the driver's rude performance. Special scorchers need to give out only unknown goods, and even better they will show themselves in “burning” orders. Races – generally their element.

Now everything is simpler. Gradually expand and shift more and more responsibility to the shoulders of the mercenaries.

Driving secrets

There is another important parameter that we did not mention at the beginning, because it can be changed at https://sister-site.org/cocoa-casino/ any time. This is the intensity of movement. High indicators very difficult to move, but the picture looks much more lively.

So, our main enemy on the road is police officers. But we, unfortunately, can do with them only one thing: to avoid. And if we still decided to catch us, then you can do two things. Stop and pay a fine or not stop and then pay anyway in the first parking lot. If you fulfill an important order, continue moving, otherwise become.

This is important: Police love to cut you and put their cars in front of yours to force you to stop. Look, do not hit them, otherwise the amount of the fine will increase significantly.

And if the police are not visible, we can do the following cute things:

Drive on the counter. Cars on the oncoming lane of movement at the sight of a huge tractor flying on them are always scared, and then they free the strip, away from sin. And we calmly go forward and do not twitch. Thus, moving towards the stream, you can not only easily overtake the competitor who occupied our strip, but also break forward thanks to the intelligent cowardice of AI.

Riding the lawn. Helps cut off corners and turns. Especially effective when you need to make a hook along the road to arrive at the base. Having cut off on the grass in time, we will be able to tear out the victory from under the very nasal of the enemy. The danger is one, but big: skids and loss of control. Therefore, put in advance a direct route by off -road.

Reversal in the wrong place. Just save you a lot of time to search for interchanges or intersections.

Struggle. Sometimes it happens that it is necessary to be the first in the race, and competitors are not amenable to. And, even if you overtook them, still break forward. Then you can drive up to them from behind and carefully poke in front of your car on the side of the column of the adversary. This will make his trailer turn around and fly away, and if there is no cargo, then it will turn the entire truck. After that, align the course and tear the claws. Just get ready for problems with the law and a fine.

Finally, a few more tips, already more legal.

If you don't know, how to get to the point of appointment , Catch up with the favorite of the race and hold it into the tail, and before entering the base, overtake with the help of "dirty" techniques or nitrogen oxide.

Listen to the radio. It will warn you about weather whims and other dangers, and sometimes it will share an additional task (but you need to know the map very well for its implementation).

If all your competitors go to the destination point On one road , then this does not mean that it is the best. Look for your own routes!

Now you are ready for almost any situations on the so far alien roads of California. Successful game! Believe me, soon all these highways and forks will become your family. And suddenly it will come in handy someday?..

“Don’t make this tragedy,” advises the candidate of pedagogical sciences Marina Arromstam. – It is worth recognizing for the teenager the right to his own territory. “.

“Don’t make this tragedy,” advises the candidate of pedagogical sciences Marina Arromstam. – It is worth recognizing for the teenager the right to his own territory. “.“Not only does a teenager do not remove in his room. He demands that you do not wipe the dust on his table, do not put scattered wheels and pieces of paper in piles. Perhaps he even stated that he would like to cut the castle into his door so that the “outsiders” would not enter it without knocking. “Outsiders” is primarily – parents. He no longer remembers, does not want to know with what love you repaired the nursery, chose furniture together and placed books and toys on the shelves. Now he sees in this room only his own territory, on which others encroach.

A small child with pleasure shares the occupied space with parents, whom he feels part of himself. The teenager, on the contrary, lives “for the gap”. It is important for him to feel like a separate, self -sufficient. He, like an animal, is ready to “mark” his territory

to convince himself and others of his own rights. But he still greatly depends on adults, extremely needs your love and, most importantly, understanding. At heart, he expects from his parents to help him become independent.

Recognize the primacy of the child on this piece of space. Yes, now you have to stipulate the opportunity to get out, rearrange something on the shelves or replace furniture. But, if the child has been accustomed to cleanliness since childhood, he is unlikely to object to him if you ask: “Maybe I (or someone else) after breakfast I will wash the floor in the room?”Ask him to surpass from yourself when he will be comfortable. And it’s good if he found time to figure out his table and wipe the dust that does not benefit his equipment.

It is unlikely that such an appeal will cause resistance, because in this way you emphasize its “property law” and only offer help. As for the need to knock, make this a rule even before the child himself formulates it. But ask him and knock him in your room. After all, we are talking about mutual respect, and you just emphasize that you are ready to see an individual in a child. The same as you yourself “.

In every love triangle there is a third party. And you need to part with her so that the couple becomes a couple again. How to do it? The family psychotherapist tells.

In our culture, there are no models of good parting, and this applies not only to love: we enter into relationships each time as if for life, but we part bloody. Not so long ago, a “good” divorce appeared: the idea that, ending the relationship, you can go from them to a different quality – friends, parents, friends, not necessarily enemies.

But if we are talking about treason, to complete an affair with the third is necessary to maintain a relationship with the main partner. This is humane and in relation to the third, in order to avoid self -deception – “we just drink coffee together” and the risk of resuming relationships and a new farewell. Everyone suffers from such repetitions.

Make the priority to whom we made an oath of allegiance

And we must say goodbye to the lover (-see), ask for forgiveness and explain everything, taking responsibility for our decision to enter into these temporary relations.

It should be said to the partner: “I’m sorry, it happened,” and another: “I’m sorry that I allowed myself to play and caused you pain. I am finishing our relationship “. Without shifting responsibility: “wife demands” or “husband is dissatisfied”, not hiding behind a partner.

Say goodbye as you cheated: in personal contact, eyes in the eyes. SMS is suitable for this only if the novel was virtual

Give a third party the opportunity to speak out in response

Announcing the parting, we cause the third party to the pain, so she has the right to do so, even if it is unpleasant for us to hear. Firstly, this is necessary to truly complete the relationship, without leaving myself loopholes: “I will block on the network, and then I can unlock”. Secondly, this is adult and healthy behavior: part with a lover or mistress as you want to part with you. So that you can respect yourself.

If this was not just a “technical” intrigue, but a living relationship with a living person, then something valuable will leave him from our life. This may be a real grief – lose a lover or mistress, especially if he or she has already become a friend, dear person. And this grief of the changing one has to go through, and survive alone: it will be too difficult to hear about it to the main partner.

Do not demand to immediately forget the third or take revenge on him

It is not only unrealistic and cruel, but also dangerous. Those who have learned about treason often have a desire to ensure that the “separation” or lover is punished, humiliated, kicked out of

work. This is how the displaced anger, intended for the culprit, that is, the partner, because the lover did not give us an oath of fidelity: the one with whom we are in a relationship is to blame for treason.

What can be said about who is bad about the one who has recently trusted something intimate and personal? Do not forget that the ability to harm another person means that on the opposite side of the barricades you can be and you yourself.

There is no good relationship with one woman and bad to all other and vice versa. Looking at how the partner parted with the one who was loved, we can draw conclusions about how he would react to us, if we were in this place. The injured partner will win if he concentrates on compensation for damage caused to him, and not on causing the same damage to the third party.

Due to an incurable disease, which gradually deprives me of the opportunity to move and causes physical pain, depression is intensified. I can’t get distracted, since I am in a closed space. Every day I lose mobility, the ability to do something.

Friends gradually “evaporated” due to the lack of reasons for communication-their life is seething, we have disappeared them for communication. The family is also very suffering because of me, which makes me even harder to endure my position.

It is not possible to treat antidepressants due to disease contraindications. I wanted

https://urban-forests.com/wp-content/pgs/in-depth-review-what-makes-betswagger-casino-stand-out.html

to find a psychologist, such as in foreign films who listens to you, but did not find. All is not that. Can I, in principle, do something in order to save myself from the worst? I’m afraid for my life.

Olga, I sympathize with you very much. I am sincerely sorry that you are in such serious condition.

You write that you are in a closed space. That is in the room? Do you have the opportunity to watch movies? Can you listen to audiobooks or performances? Can you use the Internet? You wrote to our magazine, maybe you should try to write on social networks and find those who experience your feelings and share their experience with them?

What doctors tell you? What methods of support do they offer? Your case probably had repetitions, and there are help options. It is a pity that you can not use antidepressants, but maybe the doctor will be able to choose sedative and analgesic drugs.

You don’t write what exactly you are sick

Is there a chance to confront progressive pain? You can do something yourself for your body? There are, for example, mental body training. You can read the Internet on the Internet how people do the exercises by force, without getting out of bed and only imagining that they are moving. A small muscle movement accelerates the metabolism and brings joy.

What do relatives offer you? They can look for a psychologist with you? They, of course, worry. They listen to you? You can tell them stories from your life, cases from their life. What is happening now at their work, in the family: their problems, joy, meetings and parting – this will help to get out of the closed circle of pain and fear from illness.

Friends whose life is seething can talk about what is happening in it?

They are interested in telling, but you are interested in listening? You can rejoice in their “movement” or it hurts you to compare them with you? You can discuss not only events, illness, but thoughts and feelings, argue about values.

You can keep your diary of feelings and emotions. These are notes only for you. You can slander the recorder, imagine what you are talking to who you like. If you are a believer, then there are a lot of listeners next to you, understanding and sympathetic.

Your illness is a difficult test for all. For you, for those who love you, for doctors who are aware of their powerlessness. Try to find rays of joy, look for what may interest you, do what you can do, and a little more – do not give up.
