Warface — MBT is in full swing!



Surprisingly, this event left unattended on habré. I hasten to correct the situation.

12 APR Crytek and Mail.Ru Group announced the launch of open beta testing of its new online shooter called Warface. It is noteworthy that Russian players are the first in the world had a unique opportunity to try yourself on the battlefield Warface.

Warface is an online multiplayer shooter that will be distributed on the model Free2Play. Under the cut is a small squeeze of information about the game and the developers. If you are interested in more information, then it is better to go for the official website of Warface in Russia. And even better download game to see.

Free2Play


All the main game content in Warface is free, but those who this be not enough, can use real money to purchase additional items such as more badass weapons, gear and various equipment. All of the above can be purchased for in-game points. There are three types of currency:
the
    the
  • war bucks — earned in battle
    • the
  • credits — the currency earned for real money
    • the
  • crown — special points earned for completing group missions

Earn the crown in the most difficult situation, therefore, the items purchased with this currency, have the highest rates.

About the game


About the game itself will tell you very briefly, as of the site all painted in detail.
In Warface there are two game modes — PvE and PvP. Each mode in turn involves several different types of missions / modes for every taste:

PvE
    the
  • kill a boss — the purpose of the mission is to kill a strong and dangerous opponent
    • the
  • arena defense at one point from the advancing enemy troops
    • the
  • Safari — adherence to the helicopter fired on from all sides transport

    • convoy — support equipment to a safe point


PvP
    the
  • team Deathmatch is the standard mode for any online shooter

    • the storm — the battle for control points

    undermining — the familiar mode with the installation and detonation of the bomb the

  • chopper — each fights for himself
    • the
  • capture — also the familiar mode with capture the flag
    • the
  • destruction — to achieve victory in this mode is possible in two ways: to three times to strike from the air on enemy positions or destroy 120 of the enemy. To call an airstrike, you must hold the control point located in the center of the map

In PvE mode there are three difficulty levels:
    the
  • lightweight (training)
    • the
  • difficult
    • the
  • Pro (the award x2)

PvE mission difficulty level "Challenging" and "Pro" are updated every day at 4 a.m. GMT. Training mission, in my opinion, does not change.

The game has a split-soldier specializations — medic, engineer, assault and sniper. Each class has its advantages and disadvantages. Of course, to perform complex PvE-missions, important harmonious performance of all classes.

The developers added to the game in a varied Arsenal of weapons, among which are almost all types of weapons — from pistols to sniper rifles. Also, as already mentioned, you can buy a variety of gear and equipment, such as silencers, scopes, grenade launcher, etc.

And, of course, the game has achievements, titles, insignias and clans — in General, everything, than can brag to your friends. By the way, about games friends-list developers have not forgotten.

About the design


Developed by world-renowned company Crytek, famous for such single projects as Far Cry, Crysis 1 and Crysis 2. Warface (in the name of "Cry"?!) uses the same engine as Crysis 2 is already award-winning CryENGINE3.
Work on the project takes place simultaneously in the three studios of the company — Kiev, Frankfurt and Seoul. The main work is done in Kiev, Seoul and Frankfurt offices provide assistance in the creation of the game. The developers from Kiev is quite active video blog in Russian, which tells much about the intricacies of the game, the history of its creation, and how to create and answer questions of users.

On 16 December it became known that by publishing the game in Russia will be engaged in Mail.Ru Group and already 1 of March it was announced the beginning of acceptance of applications for closed beta testing of Warface. Already on the PTA game showed great results — want to learn about the shooter turned out to be so much that I had to connect more than 20 additional servers.

In addition to the publication, Mail.Ru includes full localization into Russian language. For scoring were invited actor Maxim Averin and well-known TV presenter Lera Kudryavtseva. Localization, in my opinion, overall it turned out pretty decent. Good emotional voice, the interface is also very well translated, except for a few minor details that, most likely, the release will correct.

Therefore, the objectives of this publication are the following: the the to broaden and deepen publicly available information about FDW for MSSQL-called tds_fdw to tell the difference in major versions and describe basic compatibility issues; the to talk about the possibilities of optimization of queries that use the foreign table; the to address the subject of caching external data in a materialized view; the to say a few words about the exotic ways to integrate PostgreSQL and MSSQL. the Installing and configuring TDS FDW The guys from PostgresPro already sufficiently said about this process, I will not repeat.

Parse URL in Zend Framework 2

Custom database queries in MODx Revolution

This topic will certainly be useful for those who have quite a lot of projects on MODx Revolution, as with the usual sites of business cards is enough and the standard working methods of a La $modx- > getObject() , $modx->getCollection() , etc., and these methods are inherently not just a job database, but also with the objects of MODx. When working with large projects methods a La $modx- > getCollection() for us is not the best solution for two reasons: 1. The overexpenditures. These methods are not just getting data from DB, but also create instance of the retrieved objects. In this case, getting information about 10000 documents, we get 10000 objects of modResource that it is not very cool. 2. The task is complicated by the count of records. In addition to the direct difficulties of counting even at the query level, even if you get 10 records of the same document (for example), MODx will return as a result only one object modResource. Although often that will su
