Chroma 3 Skins: Thoughts

      Hello, and welcome back to my blog, today I will be talking about the new Chroma 3 case, but more specifically, the skins inside of it. 
1)AUG: Fleet Flock-I do not really like this one, it seems like it is really old, but not in the good antique way.
2)PP-Bizon: Judgement of Anubis-I think that this one looks very cool, like it would be held by the gods of Egypt and seems very powerful. 
3)CZ-75 Auto: Red Astor-This skin looks very cool, but I think it could use some more highlighting, bright colors. 
4)Dual Beretta: Ventilators- This skins is one of my favorite, just that it looks so unbreakable and shiny.
5)G3SG1: Orange Crash- I think that this one looks really ugly, I would not like to have this skin for any other reason other than to sell it. 
6)Galil AR: Firefight- I think this gun is very nice, I like how simple it is and yet how commanding it feels.
7)M249: Spectre- This skin is alright, it doesn't really stand out, but it is one of the better M249 skins. 
8)M4a1-S: Chantico's Fire- This skins is not the greatest M4 skins, but I would still take it over a lot of the other skins. 
Well, that is all for this time, thanks for reading all the way through, and I will see you next time.

No Mans Sky

          Hello, and welcome back to my blog, today I will be talking about that is coming out later this year called "No Man's Sky". This is a game that has literally unlimited space, meaning that the universe is infinite. The developers made the game somehow that there are no two planets exactly the same. This is also a space simulator, where you have a ship and you fly around the galaxy and do whatever you want. There seems to be a lot of exploration in this game and I am excited about that. I am most excited that you can be whatever kind of player you want to be without any restraint from the game. I think this will be a great game with stunning graphics and dazzling imagination. There is also a survival element, where you can get out of your ship and walk around the planet and obtain materials. I am not sure about many of the other details. That is all for this week, see you all next time, and thank you for reading my blog.

CSGO: Funny Moments

   Hell, and welcome back to my blog, today, I will be talking about some funny moments I had in CSGO. First, I would like to start out with a nice ninja that took place on mirage. It was a one versus 4 situation and I was the last counter-terrorist alive, I was pressured into going for a ninja defuse. I came running out of market with my smoke in my hand and I underhanded it right onto the bomb, the terrorists were all going crazy. I think one of them tried to run into the smoke to stab me, but he failed and I was victorious, even though I died a few seconds later. Another really cool moment was when I was playing on dust two as a terrorist and we went long A, and I got three one-tap headshots. I felt really good about myself, so the next round I decided to pull off a one versus three. These moments make the game fun to play, and remind me that I should never, ever stop playing videogames. That is all for this time, see you next time, and thank you for reading my blog.

My Character-Guild Wars 2

   Hello, and welcome back to my blog, today I will be talking about my personal character in Guild Wars 2. She is a human protector named Aneko the Protector, and she is a female. Her backstory is not what I will be talking about today, but maybe another time. I will not get too specific, but I will tell you how awesome she is. She uses a giant hammer and has a dark red and gray pattern. With the hammer, her first ability is her basic attack, which comes in a sequence, the first and second hit are just normal, but one of her passive abilities is that every time she lands 2 consecutive attacks, the enemy takes fire damage. The third hit in the sequence has her slam down her hammer, dealing AoE (area of effect) damage and making a small circle around the impact point that hurts the enemy, but also gives me and all allies inside of it a defensive buff. Her second attack is a jumping slam of the hammer, dealing more AoE damage, a lot more. The third ability is where she hits the ground with her hammer and a chain launches at the targeted opponent, and if it hits them, they cannot move, but can still cast spells. Her fourth ability has her deal a mighty blow to the enemy, sacrificing damage for knock-back, lots and lots of knock-back. The fifth ability makes a inescapable circle that deals lots of fire damage and healing me and all allies, and giving some nice boosts. Her sixth ability is just a standard healing ability, which heals for about 2,000 health at her level (40). Her seven ability litterally gives her and all allies ALL of the buffs except for invisibility, and instantly brings you to your feet if you are on the ground. Her eight ability lets her summon a circle of fire, that deals roughly 600 damage per second. Her ninth ability summons a magic bow that shoots arrows at her to heal her, and re-activating the ability rains down a hail of healing arrows in a circle. Her 0 ability turns her into some kind of evil thing, which poisons all enemies around her for loads of poison damage. That is pretty much all for her, thank you for reading my blog, and see you next time.

HTC Vive/ Virtual Reality

  Hello and welcome back to my blog, today I will be talking about the HTC Vive and virtual reality in general. So, what the HTC Vive is: an advanced form of virtual reality that involves laser tracking and a virtual reality headset. What virtual reality is: you guessed it, an area that is not real, but man-made. I think that virtual reality can be used for many practical things. The most popular right now is videogames, which are, in my opinion awesome, especially with the Vive, because it comes with controllers that you can use to interact with the virtual environment around you. You can even walk around, and the laser will track you, unfortunately, they can not track your whole body, just the controller and the headset, but I hope that one day we will be able to see our whole body and be able to do everything we can do in real life (and a bit more) in virtual reality. I think that VR can also be used in engineering, where you can make a 3D object and will be actual able to walk around it and make adjustments. I think this will make it much easier for the next generation of engineers, who wont be using desktop computers, but will be actually seeing their creations and being able to go up and touch them, kinda. This could also be very effective as a new form of art. Instead of just having a flat painting, you can have a 3D picture that you can walk around and see from different views. I also think that this could be used in many training simulations, such as flight simulations, so instead of the government wasting a ton of money on those big simulators, they could just have a few and be able to use them for multiple types of simulation. One thing that I think would be very cool to go with the laser tackers, is drones, so instead of the lasers coming from the corners of a room, they would be attached to drones and they would follow you if you ran out into an area. This would make it so that you would not have to stay in a confined area, you could run into battle and not be worried about destroying your stuff. That is all for right now, I will see you next time, and thank you for reading my blog.

Prison Architect

        Hello, and welcome back to my blog. Today I will be talking about an older game that I got a long time ago that I recently started to play again. This game is called prison architect, which is basically a prison building game, where, you guessed it, build and manage your own prison. I think this game is very difficult, at least for me. I think this is because of what prisoners do if requirements are not met. The prisoners will try and escape, beat up guards, and break things. The way you can get the money to build your prison is through grants, which is where the government gives you a certain amount of money to do a certain thing in your prison. There is a lot of little things in this game, a lot of it is very creative, and yet necessary to a prison. This game has a lot of hours of expanding your prison, and can feel very accomplishing when you complete an objective. The animation style is also very unique and I think is quite funny. This game is very fun for me and I suggest anyone who likes to create their own thing and make it better. Well, that is all for right now, and thank you for reading my blog.

Guild Wars 2

       Hello, and welcome back to my blog. Today, I will be talking about a game that my friend got me and a bunch of other people into. This game is called Guild Wars 2, which is a MMORPG (Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) which basically means that a lot of people are on the same consistent server and they all play a different role. There is a lot of different things that can happen in this game, and I haven't played enough of it to know very much about the other storylines that you can follow. So, what happens is, you pick a class and a race to play as, then you design your character to your liking, and then,(this is where the complicated stuff happens) you choose from a set of events that happened to your character in his/her past. This defines everything that happens in your personal story, along with other decisions you make along the road. You unlock a new personal story every 10 levels. Oh, by the way, this game runs on a level system and runs on damage numbers and probability and all that, which means that once you reach a new level, your statistic numbers increase, and you'll do more damage and more of other stuff. There are also many events that happen all over the game world at all times, such as a centaur attack on a nearby village, which you can go over to and defend it for a nice reward. Also, those events actually change what other events are going to be later, such as, if you did save that town, then there would be a different event later than if you did not save the town. There is so much to the weapon system also, this is mainly caused by the fact that every weapon type comes with a new and unique set of skills. This keeps the game interesting and makes it more fun to learn how, and to use a new weapon because it does not just make you're character statistically better, it could change the way you play the game as that character. There is just too much awesome in this game for me too explain it all in this blog post, but I might consider making my character something that i regularly talk about and what is happening in my little world of adventure. That is all for right now, and I will see you next time, and thank you for reading my blog.

Clash of Clans

    Hello,  and welcome back to my blog, today I will be talking about a phone game called clash of clans. This is a strategy war game, where you create a base and upgrade it to defend your loot. I stopped playing a while ago, but I have recently picked it up again. I am not very good at the game, but still consider myself better than some. I am currently in a clan with my friends called MattyBsSidekiks if anybody would like to join, even though its awful, and do not ask me why we named it that. I think that this game is quite genius in its way of allowing players to do whatever they want. As in, you can have whatever kind of base layout you want, even if it makes no sense, and you can also choose whatever kind of troop to use and deploy them however you please. So, how the game works is, you collect loot either from your collectors, or from stealing it from enemy bases. You then use this loot to upgrade your base from wherever you want, to protect your loot, to upgrade your base, to protect your loot... etc. There is a lot of fun things you can do in Clash of Clans, like making a clan with some of your friends and participating in clan wars, which is just two clans attacking each others bases to see who can destroy the other one better. The winning clan's players who attacked will be given a great amount of loot, and the clan will gain experience to level up and gain new perks that help the clan thrive. Over all, I think that Clash of Clans is a good way to burn some extra time, or to get excited about once you reach a milestone. Well, that is it for right now, but I will see you next time, and thank you fro reading my blog.

League of Legends

    Hello and welcome back to my blog, today I will be talking about a game that I had recently started playing. This game is called League of Legends and is a team based strategy game, where players each pick a champion that they will control and fight the enemy team with. All of the champions are different and each of them have their own unique abilities. You can use these abilities to kill other champions and destroy turrets to make your way to the enemy nexus and destroy it. The turrets are found in the lanes, which is a set of three paths leading to the enemy base. The turrets will have to be destroyed in order to get to the enemy nexus, but beware, the enemy team will be trying to take out your turrets as well, so watch out for that. The turrets are very powerful, so you will need some assistance taking them down. That is where the minions come in, they do not do that much damage and do not have that much health, but they can certainly take a few shots from the turrets for you. The turrets will target these minions over anything else, unless you attack an enemy champion within its range. once you destroy one turret, then you can move on to the next one, and once you get inside the enemies base, there will be inhibitors, and if you destroy these, your team will start to spawn super minions. In between the lanes, there is the jungle, a shadowy place with many places to hide and strong monsters, and if you kill them, you will gain a temporary buff. This is also the place where the dragon and baron live, and if you kill either of those, you and your team will gain an incredible buff. Once you are low on health, you can go back to your spawn, which rapidly heals you and replenishes your mana. You can also buy items here that will greatly increase your champions ability to destroy the other team. That is all for now, see you next time, and thanks for reading my blog.

Bunny Hopping

    Hello and welcome back to my blog, today I will be talking about bunny-hopping, or namely, b-hopping. I am not very good at this, but I at least know the basics of how to do this. First let me explain what b-hopping is, it is a way to move faster by jumping repeatedly. You have to jump in a specific way though, and that way is by strafing. Now, how you strafe is not that hard, but it does take some time to get used to, what you have to do is to let go of the w key while you are in air and press a or d to move. You will also have to move your mouse to control where you are going, much like surfing. You will also need to jump off the ground exactly when you hit it, which is the difficult part. Once you know how to do it, it becomes much easier to practice instead of blindly trying different things. Review: Don't press w, unless you are about to start your starting jump, hold a or d and move your mouse to move, and jump as soon as you hit the ground. Once again I would have to say that practice makes perfect and that if you have fun while doing it, you will get good at it really fast. That is all for this week, see you next time, and thank you for reading my blog.

Surfing

     Hello, and welcome back to my blog, today, I will be talking about how I started to surf and hopefully teach you how to as well. So, if you don't know where to surf, you just have to go to "browse community servers" and search up surf. Actually surfing is the trickier part. What you have to do is not press forward at all and only press a or d. Whether you press a or d depends on what way the ramp is facing, if the ramp is on your left, then hold a, if it is on the right, then hold d. Once you are holding those down on the ramp, you have to follow the curve of the ramp with your mouse. I would start by looking right at the edge of the ramp, but a little bit in front of you. Also, while you are in the air and are trying to make a turn, make sure to hold down a or d (depending on the way you are turning) and move your mouse slowly across your screen. Surfing revolves a lot on mouse movements, especially in the air, so if you want to go around the corner, you would move your mouse around the corner, and if you wanted to jump to another ramp, you would have to flick your mouse up and in the direction of the next ramp you are trying to get to. The one thing that I think will help you surf the most is to do it for yourself and try to have fun while doing it. Just remember that practice makes perfect and you'll be a surf master in no time if you try your hardest. That is all for right now, see you all next time and thank you for reading my blog.

Sword Art Online

   Hello, and welcome back to my blog. Today I am going to be talking about the anime that I really like called Sword Art Online, namely SAO, and pretty much trying to get you (reader) to go and watch it. Ok, so the story takes place somewhere in Japan in the year 2020, where a better version of virtual reality called the full dive system, allows people to interact with a digital world, but they can move without a controller, but using their minds. This works by the machine (nervegear) intercepting the signals that the brain send to your body right at your neck, which means that you can't move your real body while you are in the game, and also everything that you do, you can feel by the nervegear sending signals to your brain. So, the story starts off with the release of a new game for the nervegear called Sword Art Online, where players are placed in a virtual RPG MMO where they can roam around and do literally whatever they wanted to do, but there is one catch, the creator of the game and the nervegear has rigged the system so that if anyone tries to unplug you from the game, the player's brain will be microwaved by the nervegear and the user will wind up dead. He also removed the log-out button from the game so that the players can not escape. The main character is Kirito, who is a very powerful beta-tester, who is very skills and knows a lot about the game already. When he is told that the only way to escape the game was to beat it by reaching the 100th floor of the absolutely massive world and clearing the dungeon boss that lies within, he sets off to make himself stronger so that he can survive in this harsh world. And so the story begins, anyway, I hope you go and check it out for yourselves, and I will see you next time, and thanks for reading all the way through my blog.

Paladins Beta

   Hello, and welcome back to my blog. Today I am going to be talking about this game called Paladins. It is currently in a closed beta, which means that the creators of Paladins (Hi-Rez) has to send you a code that will get you access into the beta. I, fortunately, have gotten a beta key (code) from a giveaway that is still going on as of today. The only problem is, is that I have a Mac and the game is only available to those who have a Windows PC. I am very hopeful that the beta key that I have gotten will still work once Paladins comes out for the Mac. Anyway, Paladins is a multiplayer-battle game. The goal of each match is to capture an objective while fighting the enemy team, and once you capture the objective, then a siege engine will spawn and start heading to the enemy's vault, which is protected by three walls that can only be destroyed with the siege engines help. Once you have destroyed all of their walls, then you have to break into their vault by destroying the door, after that you have won the match. During the match you will gain experience, and once you have gained enough, you will level up, and once you level up, you can choose one of three randomly selected ability cards that will in some way boost the effectiveness of your character. You can acquire better cards by completing matches and gaining gold to buy packs of random cards (not usually the same ones as what you have), or you can trade up some of your cards for a different one, or, if you sacrifice enough cards of a certain quality, then you can get a car of the higher quality. There is not much else that I know about the game. If you want to know more about the game, visit https://www.paladins.com/  and if you want to know more about the giveaway, go to ninety-nine lives on Youtube. That is all for today, have a good night.

Welcome Back

   Hello, and welcome back to CS derp. Today I will be addressing the new update that has ruined my rank. So, before the update, I was a mg 1, but now I am a silver elite, and all of my friends are too. It helps for me to now that it was not only me that lost their rank. I also found myself completely having to re-learn how to shoot a rifle, because of the new update where you can no longer spray like you used to. I hope that this can be changed in the future, because it makes me feel like a complete fool while I am using it. Well, that is all for this week, I hope you all had a merry Christmas and a happy new year.
