![]() But the vast storm that surrounds and entraps the inhabitants of Dubai, is not solely used for scene-setting. Seeing towering avenues of skyscrapers turned into desert gorges by vast piles of sand makes it all the more visually striking, lending Spec Ops an otherworldly feel that complements the increasingly surreal nature of the story. Dubai is already a city of extremes, a metropolis vast in both scale and wealth surrounded by an incredibly inhospitable landscape. The storm acts both as a useful narrative device for Spec Ops, the plot of which borrows heavily from Joseph Conrad’s novel Heart of Darkness, and also as a way to enhance the game’s setting. ![]() Not only have the storms completely cut off Dubai from the rest of the world, they’ve also buried its glittering skyscrapers and curated oases in mountains of sand. 33rd Infantry Battalion, which volunteered to provide relief to the citizens of Dubai following a sequence of massive dust storms, but themselves became trapped in the city by those same storms. Walker’s mission in Spec Ops: The Line is to determine the fate of the U.S. It is the storm itself, and what it represents. It is the entire reason the game’s story takes place, the elephant in Dubai. Yet there’s another side to Spec Ops: The Line that has not only withstood the test of time, but has grown more urgent in the last decade.

Though its artists made ample use of new industrial materials, they resisted temptations to completely turn to mass production. Translated as the "Viennese Workshops," the name Wiener Werkstätte represents well the nature of its organization: it incorporated the craft-based production of decorative arts in a mostly rural country, which was historically concentrated in its primary metropolis.Unlike other contemporaneous movements in the decorative arts and design, the Wiener Werkstätte did not seek to create an art that would be accessible to all and enlighten the masses instead, the group focused on the highest quality craftsmanship and materials for a socioeconomic elite that, perhaps ironically, would treat its work more as art objects than utilitarian items.The Wiener Werkstätte innovatively envisioned that many of its activities would complement and promote each other - for example, its postcards often featured the Workshops' output in architecture, textiles, fashion, and glass and ceramics - a move that helped Werkstätte attain two of its goals: first, narrowing the gap in prestige between artistic genres and second, bolstering the commercial visibility of its designs.The Wiener Werkstätte initially emphasized the creation of the Gesamtkunstwerk, or "total work of art," that sought to create a unified aesthetic across an entire designed environment, though this effort eventually fragmented into a highly diverse set of fields, with less and less emphasis on architecture and large-scale interiors, largely due to the financial constraints of the group's clients.Together with the Vienna Secession, out of which it was formed, it broke away from the stylistic revivals that had dominated Austrian architecture and design during the 19 th century, though eventually it returned to historical tropes when new designers joined the group in the 1910s. The Wiener Werkstätte was the first organization in Austria dedicated to the production of modern decorative arts. ![]() Its demise in the midst of repeated financial crises demonstrates the ultimate inability of artistic enterprises to completely free themselves from the economic concerns of the age. Led by the unassuming architect Josef Hoffmann and his associates such as Dagobert Peche and Koloman Moser, the Wiener Werkstätte drew from movements such as the Arts & Crafts and Art Nouveau as well as from traditional folk art, and forecasted the flowering of Art Deco and the International Style in the interwar period. The Wiener Werkstätte's emphasis on complete artistic freedom resulted in a prodigious output of designs, and this, along with an army of skilled craftsmen and a complex network of production and distribution made it the standard for Austrian design between the dawn of the century and the depths of the Great Depression. Centered in the Austrian capital, it stood at the doorway between traditional methods of manufacture and a distinctly avant-garde aesthetic. The Wiener Werkstätte (Viennese Workshops) was one of the longest-lived design movements of the twentieth century and a key organization for the development of modernism. ![]() ![]() Prior to launching BBM for Android, an unreleased version of the BBM for Android app was posted online. Pausing #BBM4All rollout to fix issues caused by unreleased BBM for Android app. Also, we’re deprecating Verbs Pro and the basic app itself will include all the pro features.We’re removing Facebook chat support for the time being.Because of the new sync features, your existing (2.x) accounts and conversations would not be available after upgrade. Before upgrading, please back up your existing conversations using the “Email conversation” feature.HTML hyperlinks are supported in messages.Sent bubble color changes when messages are delivered.Sync Chat, File Sharing and Read Later accounts over iCloud.Real time syncing of chat messages across devices. ![]() The complete change log is below: What’s New in Version 3.0.0 You can grab the completely overhauled Verbs 3.0 from the iOS App Store for $2.99 today. ![]() These include push notifications and longer connection times after the app closes. Speaking of notifications, the former “Verbs Pro” in-app purchase has been removed, and all of its features are now included standard in the app. Other changes include the addition of Dropbox for file sharing (alongside the old CloudApp and Droplr options), Pocket and Safari Reading List options for saving links, tappable URLs in chat bubbles, per-contact muting, the ability to manage your contact lists, in-app notifications for messages that come in while you’re in the settings view or another thread, and notifications when certain contacts come online. Previously any devices that didn’t have the app running would miss any messages that were downloaded on other devices. This works a lot like iMessage’s syncing function, where every message you get will automatically show up on all devices whether Verbs is currently running on that specific device or not. One of the bigger notable features in version 3.0 is the ability to keep your conversations in sync across all of your devices via iCloud. Verbs, the popular instant messaging app for iPhone and iPad, was updated today at long last with a revamped design for iOS 7 and a whole host of new features and fixes, including the removal of an in-app purchase to enable extra features. Skype for iPhone version 5.10 is available now for free on the App Store. If you heavily rely on communicating with Skype frequently, this means you should see deeper Skype integration in other third-party apps in the future. You can also save contacts to Skype from the recent call list starting with this version, and Microsoft touts improved chat notification reliability as well.įinally, Microsoft is reintroducing support for Skype URIs which let other developers include interactions with Skype directly in their own apps including features like calling and messaging.Īs long as the Skype app is installed on an iPhone, when a user taps on a Skype name or phone number, the URI will open the Skype app to connect a call or send a message*, making it faster than ever to reach friends, family or businesses.įor example, if you’re browsing restaurant options on an app or mobile website that utilizes Skype URIs, tapping on the phone number would launch Skype so you could call and make a reservation. The new version of Skype for iPhone highlights the ability to save contacts from the app’s phone dialer just like the native Phone app on iOS. Microsoft is out today with its latest version of Skype for iPhone, version 5.10, as it continues to add refinements and features to the overhauled version of its app first released last year. Also speed up all others boats, so good all around. It means more frequent boats to take your stuff and as such more frequent income. The difference between without and with are night and day. The first one is employee of the month, as it will make your industries and mines work double shift. There are 2, or 3 edicts I deem absolutely mandatory. When you have made a decent economy chain, such as securing one or two industries, get your research started. Start by the base, and build up(primary ressources first, then upgrading them, then industry to transform them). The boats rythtm your progression, so to speak. Build the basis of your economy when you have money, then wait until the boats take away what you made before adding to it again. ![]() The reason being most missions have very bad economies or poorly done starting ones, or bad placement, or what have you. It is quite frequent at the beginning of missions to run in the red, or even DEEPLY in the red, before it gets better. Highlighted workers = items will be produced. Workers not there = items won't be produced. There's also an edict in the colonial era section that lets your industry workers work twice the shifts.įor example, if you see all workers grayed out or transparent, it means either they're traveling to the workplace or someplace else to satisfy their needs. How are the needs met for your workers? Are buildings like a house, clinic or an entertainment building relatively close to the workplace or far away? How are the wages set? Did you try setting the wages to max to see if that helps? The way how this game is designed is that your workers work in shifts meaning that you will see some workers there making the stuff while others are off somewhere on break to satisfy their needs. Making money in this game is different from the previous games. When I first played this game during the free weekend, my first mistake was expanding the production and industry too fast without considering other factors. ![]() It seems the more I build the faster I lose money.
