As Strikeforce nixes heavyweights, recovering Antonio Silva eyes move to UFC
(mmajunkie.com) With consecutive wins over Fedor Emelianenko, Mike Kyle and Andrei Arlovski, former EliteXC champ Antonio Silva (16-3 MMA, 3-2 UFC) looked well on his way to establishing himself as one of MMA's top heavyweights.
Then he ran into Daniel Cormier, who booted Silva out of Strikeforce's heavyweight grand prix with a surprising first-round knockout.
As it turns out, the loss provided Silva with a valuable lesson he promises to carry with him for the remainder of his career – a career that looks as if may now play out in the UFC.
"Cormier is a good person and a great fighter, but he should have also payed the lotto that day," the Brazilian recently told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com). "The first punch he landed took me out, and I was unable to fight after it.
"I am from Paraiba, and we always come to fight and let it all hang out. But I learned a lesson: We should not fight for the money but for the love of fighting. After Alistair Overeem dropped out of the tournament, I wanted out of the grand prix, as well, but I continued for the money and God punished me. Money should never be the priority."

UFC 145 official for Montreal in March, gets MacDonald vs. Mills
(mmajunkie.com) As expected, the Ultimate Fighting Championship will return to Montreal in March for UFC 145.
And while the fight card is expected to take place on March 24 at Bell Centre, UFC executives have to confirm all of the details.
That said, the night's first fight was made official, as Rory MacDonald will meet fellow welterweight prospect Che Mills.
Wagnney Fabiano, Marlon Sandro Set For Bellator Featherweight Tournament
(bloodyelbow.com) Former IFL featherweight champion and prominent WEC fighter Wagnney Fabiano has been added to Bellator's season six featherweight tournament along with Summer Series featherweight tournament finalist Marlon Sandro. Sherdog has the info:
A pair of Brazilian talents has been added to Bellator Fighting Championships' sixth-season featherweight tournament, as Wagnney Fabiano and Marlon Sandro will both compete for a shot at the gold in the coming year.
Sherdog.com confirmed the tournament participation of both men on Tuesday with sources close to the fighters. Bellator CEO Bjorn Rebney initially tweeted news of Fabiano's signing last week but did not specify the fighter's tournament plans.
Spike Counter-Programming UFC, Bellator With Friday TUF Marathons
(bloodyelbow.com) The UFC/Spike relationship continued its jilted lover getting revenge feel as the network announced Tuesday they will air marathons of The Ultimate Fighter on Friday nights starting on Friday, March 2nd.
The three-hour weekly block -- called "The Ultimate Fighter Fridays" -- will feature some of the best episodes from the 14 seasons TUF ran on the male-focused cable network. Spike also said in a press release they will air special-themed editions of TUF based on social media feedback.
When the UFC announced they had signed a deal with Fox, part of the seven year contract was moving the popular reality show to FX on Friday nights with live fights as opposed to taped. The next season of TUF begins on Friday, March 9th with UFC Bantamweight Champion Dominick Cruz and Urijah Faber as coaches of teams of welterweights and lightweights.
However, Spike will also be counter-programming their future asset Bellator Fighting Championships, which comes to Spike in 2013. Bellator recently announced a move to Fridays on MTV2, making for a busy night of MMA to start the weekend. They also begin their new night on Friday, March 2nd with Spike.com airing the prelim fights.
2012 marks the final year of Spike's deal with the UFC, enabling them access to archive footage they have been using to counter-program UFC events on Fox and Versus.
Strikeforce import Lavar Johnson meets Joey Beltran at UFC on FOX 2
(mmajunkie.com) The Strikeforce heavyweights are coming.
Less than one week after UFC president Dana White announced that Strikeforce would no longer be promoting heavyweight contests, UFC executives today announced Lavar Johnson (15-5 MMA, 0-0 UFC) has been imported to the UFC and will meet Joey Beltran (13-6 MMA, 3-2 UFC).
The two heavyweights will clash at UFC on FOX 2, which takes place Jan. 28 at Chicago's United Center.
The night's main card airs on FOX, but Beltran vs. Johnson is expected to take place on the evening's preliminary card.
Koch Out of UFC 143 Showdown with Poirier Due to Injury
(sherdog.com) Erik Koch has suffered an unspecified injury and will be unable to compete at UFC 143, promotion officials announced Tuesday.
Koch was scheduled to lock horns with fellow featherweight prospect Dustin Poirier at the Feb. 4 event, which will be headlined by an interim welterweight title bout between Nick Diaz and Carlos Condit. The search for Koch's replacement is currently underway.
UFC 141's Alistair Overeem passes drug test, cleared for PPV headliner
(mmajunkie.com) Next week's UFC 141 main event will remain intact.
After issues with a recent Nevada State Athletic Commission-mandated drug test, Alistair Overeem (35-11 MMA, 0-0 UFC) finally has taken and passed a test and been cleared to compete against Brock Lesnar (5-2 MMA, 4-2 UFC).
UFC president Dana White first hinted at the news today via Twitter, and an official later confirmed the passed test with MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com).
"Overeem is ready to go!!!" White tweeted. "Lesnar vs Overeem is on!"
Ronnie Mann joins Bellator's season-six featherweight tourney
(mmajunkie.com) Ronnie Mann (21-4-1 MMA, 3-1 BFC) is joining a second Bellator tournament.
The English fighter, who posted a semifinal finish during the "Summer Series" tournament earlier this year, has joined the season-six featherweight tourney.
Bellator officials recently announced his participation in the eight-man field, which kicks off in March on MTV2.
As MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) reported Monday, WEC and IFL veteran Wagnney Fabiano (14-3 MMA, 0-0 BFC) also is slated for the field.
Mann, a former Cage Rage and World Victory Road/Sengoku fighter, joined Bellator earlier this year. After knocking out Adam Schindler in the opening round of the "Summer Series" tourney, he suffered a decision loss to Pat Curran in the semifinals and was bounced from the tournament.
Brock: I've had the same PED accusations as Overeem my whole life
(mixedmartialarts.com) As a massive heavyweight who cuts weight to make the 265-pound heavyweight limit, Brock Lesnar is no stranger to questions regarding performance-enhancing substance use.
But as he prepares for his UFC 141 contest with former Strikeforce titleholder Alistair Overeem, all the question marks have been centered around his chiseled Dutch opponent.
"I've been dealing with the same accusations my whole life," Lesnar said. "Being part of the spotlight and being I guess with the Internet and everything these days – and being social media and everybody knows everything – it's part of the lifestyle. It comes with the territory. I've been used to it for many years now."
"Obviously, it's kind of hard to get away, but I've pretty much centralized myself with pretty much just my family on my ranch, and so I really don't know what's going on in the outside scheme of things. Right now, I'm focused on the fight and my family and the holidays and trying to live a somewhat normal life, you know, other than being a UFC fighter. You've got to be able to manage everything and stay on top of what's most important, and that's the fight and my family and the holiday right now.
Herb Dean hoped Nogueira would submit before break
(mixedmartialarts.com) In professional mixed martial arts a referee is only trained to react after damage has been done, not to prevent it when a submission is being applied. The thought being that these two professionals are being paid a lot of money sometimes and can make their own decision on whether or not to submit.
That said, referees can still have opinions and thoughts on what they hope happens, and more often than not would prefer to see each combatant make it through a fight without serious injury.
UFC 141's Lesnar relates to Overeem's plight but unconcerned with potential distractions.
(mmajunkie.com) As a massive 6-foot-3 heavyweight who cuts weight to make the 265-pound heavyweight limit, former UFC champion Brock Lesnar (5-2 MMA, 4-2 UFC) is no stranger to questions regarding performance-enhancing substance use.
But as he prepares for his UFC 141 contest with former Strikeforce titleholder Alistair Overeem (35-11 MMA, 0-0 UFC), all the question marks have been centered around his chiseled Dutch opponent.
Pay no mind, says Lesnar. When you're in the spotlight, you can expect some scrutiny. A shot at UFC heavyweight champ Junior Dos Santos hangs in the balance, and there's simply no time for distractions.
Overeem ready for UFC 141 'dream fight,' looks forward to future bout with Dos Santos
(mmajunkie.com) While much of the buildup for next week's year-end UFC 141 event has focused on the health of Brock Lesnar (5-2 MMA, 4-2 UFC) and the licensing difficulties of Alistair Overeem (35-11 MMA, 0-0 UFC), the two massive heavyweights aren't really interested in addressing those topics.
Instead, both fighters insist their focus is entirely on what will happen when the cage door closes behind them
The intriguing clash of superstars is sure to have Las Vegas' MGM Grand Garden Arena abuzz, and Overeem promises to deliver a show. After all, he's happy to take part in this "dream fight," and he looks forward to meeting the champion, as well.
"I'm very happy with the opportunity I got fighting Brock," Overeem today told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) on a conference call promoting the event. "I think it's a dream match for not only myself but for the fans, as well."
Kenny Florian eager to make lightweight return in 2012, eyes one more run at UFC gold
(mmamania.com) "Dropping to the featherweight division was way too much for my body to handle. The Diego Nunes fight was the worst I've ever felt on a weigh-in day. Luckily, I felt better on fight day and was able to pull out a victory. But, against Aldo it was a brutal weight cut, and I really didn't feel too great heading into the fight. In result, I had some medical issues I had to deal with. I had a thyroid issue that was based on the drastic weight loss. Those are the things you kind of ignore as a fighter, but it became very real to me after the fight. I'll now be moving and staying at lightweight. I feel that I have all the skills to get it done. I've had different issues over the course of my career, but I'm capable of doing it. It's just going out there and getting it done. I have some injuries I'm going to let heal for the next two months. Once those things clear up, I'm looking forward to getting back on the race to the title. I'm hoping it would be a well-respected, top guy in the lightweight division. But, right now I don't have anyone in mind. I have a back injury that I'm letting heal up. As soon as that's cleared, I'll start talking to the UFC about possible opponents. I think my career has a few more great years and fights left."

UFC Cuts Cole Escovedo
(bloodyelbow.com) Lost amidst the Strikeforce/Showtime extension and busy weekend in combat sports was the news the UFC has cut bantamweight Cole Escovedo, confirmed by the fighter via Twitter.
He made his UFC debut in May, losing a unanimous decision to Renan Barao at UFC 130. He followed that up with a second round TKO loss to Takeya Mizugaki at September's UFC 135 and a unanimous decision defeat to Alex Caceres at November's UFC on Fox 1.
The 30-year-old is the answer to a minor MMA trivia question as he was the WEC's first featherweight champion, winning the belt back in October 2002 with a first round submission win over Philip Perez. He defended the title successfully once before losing the belt to some guy named Urijah Faber nearly four years later, the first WEC title reign for the "California Kid".
Gilbert Melendez Says He has Done More Than Ben Henderson to Earn Title Shot
(bloodyelbow.com) "I don't feel like I shouldn't be in this position, I'm not crying about my position but I think I've done more than Ben Henderson," told Fighting Famous TV. "You know, these guys were on The Ultimate Fighter - I was already fighting in PRIDE and ranked top three in the world but some people just don't understand that.
"I'm not trying to be a cry baby again, but I just know my history and I've been there. I've already hit these bumps in the road and come back. Some of these guys haven't hit that bump in the road where they have to reinvent themselves and I've already hit that and they're still going to hit that."

Frank Mir: Strikeforce heavyweights add much needed depth to UFC roster
(mmamania.com) Mir talks to ESPN 1100/98.9 FM's "MMA Insiders" show (via Yahoo Sports):
"We don't have the type of depth that the other weight classes have and I think it's only a benefit to move them (Strikeforce heavyweights) over to us. I guess I have a bad taste in my mouth because of what happened when I first started my career. I had to always hear about, 'Oh, you guys are good, but the PRIDE guys would kick your butt.' There is no comparison and then that frustration of not being able to get to them. And then when Nogueira came over and Mirko, ( I ) got a hold of them. 'Yeah, but there is still Fedor.' I don't want to hear that. I want to know that anybody that is in the division, it's like if you think you can beat me, 'Hey Joe Silva, is he clear?' Okay, cool, let's fight. Now we can solve it you know? That whole unattainable thing just drives me insane."
I Take On Bloody Elbow's Shoddy Journalism About Miesha Tate In An Article Of My Own
(sports-at-work.com) You have to love a journalist that fails to do their due diligence. Bloody Elbow's Brent Brookhouse recently wrote an article about Gilbert Melendez and Cristiane "Cyborg" Santos being the new "face" of Strikeforce, but in his article he "quoted," and I use the term loosely, Miesha Tate.
Brookhouse asserts "Tate said something that made no sense to me when she insisted that if women's MMA needs a 'face' that it means that the sport will never make it. That's an incredible detachment from the reality of combat sports." The entire article can be found below.
UFC 141: Brock Lesnar promises fans 'the same guy who beat Frank Mir to a pulp' against Alistair Overeem
(mmamania.com) Look, I've had a great camp. This is the best I have felt in years and lardy-lardy-da... I could go through all the clichés about how in shape I am but the fact is, I know myself and my own body and I know that I am back. I am 100%. I am as fast, as strong and as explosive as I've ever been and you're going to see the same guy who beat Frank Mir to a pulp at UFC 100. If I go in and execute my game-plan, then I am winning this fight. That's the bottom line here. Overeem says he is knocking me out in two rounds. Well, I am glad he has the ability to see the future. That's his dream. I have my own dreams of winning this fight and going on to get my belt back. And on Friday December 30 his dream will be over.The surgically repaired Lesnar (5-2) is coming off a first round shellacking at the hands of former division champion Cain Velasquez at UFC 121 back in October 2010. It was Brock's first loss inside the Octagon since serving up a ham-hock to Mir in his Octagon debut at UFC 81 way back in February 2008."
M-1 Global doesn't want Fedor Emelianenko to fight mediocre fighters ...
(mmamania.com) "At this moment, for us, the key thing is the level of the opponent, and not how much we get paid. I can say that if we were unable to agree with Ishii, we wouldn't participate in this tournament. We had concurrent offers with other DREAM fighters, but this is not for Fedor's level, and we didn't want to have a fight with mediocre fighters, taking a step backwards. We want to be taking steps forward and we will follow this in the future. We want to have three fights. One in Russia, one in Europe, and one in the USA. We really want to get a rematch with Werdum, but he is locked up in the prison called UFC, and because of that arranging for him to fight Fedor would be very difficult. Dana White is like a dog on hay -- he neither eats it himself, nor lets the others eat it. There are many other good fighters, whom we are considering. For instance, Josh Barnett. We need to wait for the Strikeforce heavyweight tournament to end and then we can see how likely it is that we can arrange a fight."

Just need to correct a few things: ... On Size Of the Team, or Size of the Budget While you can generally assume that more manpower = more production, that isn't always the case. In Repop, much of what we do is based on generated content. Once you have a good generation system in place, it allows you to be more efficient in your content creation. Rather than designing 7500 hand designed missions by hand, we focus on designing 500 templates. The templates specify the rules, item types, npc types, etc and each of those can be reused many times and each time the npcs, items, etc will be different. You can a lot things done with less people if you can automate or reuse a lot of it. For things like artwork, you outsource to external artists or art houses, use licensed models, etc. Those types of things would all be mentions in the credits, but they don't count as team members. Outsourcing is generally far more efficient from a price standpoint than if you do everything in-house. ... On Hero Engine Your making a judgement on the engine based on how you saw TOR handle PvP or crowds of players. That is not a Hero Engine problem. It's a problem due to a lot of customization on the TOR models. It works fine for the situations the game was designed for most of the time (sparse player population, personal storyline, lot of soloing). It didn't work as well with a large number of players. But those are design decisions. Had TOR had a primary focus on large scale PvP they probably would have gone in a different direction there, maybe sacrificing some customization to get it done. As a renderer, Hero Engine isn't on par with the likes of Unreal Tech. But it's strength isn't in its renderer. It does a lot more than that. ... On AI The last video footage was shot on the first day of ALPHA testing. You can't judge a game AI or any of its systems really based on a 2 second splice you saw in an alpha stage video. At that stage of development everything is still very much a work in progress. |
Hero Engine 2 $99/year ~ Indy MMOs
The Pub at MMORPG.COM « General Discussion 12/07/12 8:49:00 AM
Having worked with Hero Engine for about a year and a half now, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the thing. It's renderer isn't on par with the likes of Unreal Tech, but the editors, collaberative editing, networking is all just fine.
Originally posted by SalivalMundane Release date is not December 2012. It's some time in late 2013. Hero Engine can build any type of MMO, first person shooter, sandbox, action rpg, etc. Last but not least, the game has never ran any type of ad campaign. |
There's always Orgia Romanus. =P
The game will have both a Hardcore PvP (FFA/Loot) and a Normal ruleset server. The normal rule set server features PvP that is a cross between Dark Age of Camelot and SWG mechanics wise. All players start as Inactive Military and as such they can only attack or be attacked by others in the contested areas (which is a good sized slice of the world in between the OWON and FPR controlled territories). If players set themselves as Active Military then they can attack or be attacked by opposing Active Military members anyplace in the world (but friendly guards will still protect them). There is also a third faction (Rogue Nations), which is basically not affiliated with either of the two main factions, and allows users to set their own hostility rules to other nations. For rogue nations each nation (which is like an extended guild) is in essence their own faction. Rogue Nations start hostile to everyone else, but they can form alliances and such with other rogue nations to prohibit them from fighting one another. It will be a free to play game with a cash shop, but it is not a pay to win game. The store will mostly be operating on account perks (bank slots, character slots, mission slots, inventory slots, etc) which can also be unlocked in bulk through one-time memberships (pay once, lasts forever) and cosmetic items. There will be stims which can enhance your potential to learn (increases skillup rates) but those can also be obtained through adventuring, and give a smaller bonus than in most other games. We value free players, as they enhance the experience of everyone else, and don't want them to feel like they can not compete. |
(can we get a history lesson): why was the first Themepark MMO created? what purpose they were trying to solve?
The Pub at MMORPG.COM « General Discussion 10/27/12 2:27:04 AM
Ironically you could make an argument that Star Wars Galaxies (in the eyes of many players the best sandbox MMO to date) was the precursor to WoW's very theme park oriented gameplay. The idea had been tossed around for a while. In SWG you had rebel, imperial, hutt and other theme parks that were very similar to the quest centric gameplay that now dominates the market. You'd go through a series of missions for those NPCs, and eventually work your way up to the feature characters. It was just a small part of the gameplay of SWG though. Other games before WoW had begun a shift towards a more quest centric approach, but just not to the same level. DAoC's epic quest series gave very good experience, but you still had to grind on mobs for most of your exp. Everquest 2 which beat WoW to market by a month or so, also gave good experience for quests, but there were not enough of them to level off of completely and much of its world was still group oriented. But in those days the main way to gain experience was just to grind on mobs. Killing over and over. Anything that gave experience, kill it. Leveling by quest was much more enjoyable for most players than leveling by slaying whatever mob gave exp. It gave them some focus, and allowed for some storyline to be inserted. All in all, it was an improvement over no direction at all. Unfortunately like anything else, once the strings were visible and every game started cloning the style, players quickly realized things that they may not have originally. They were generally being driven along the same path as everyone else. Most quests followed a few basic templates and the story meant very little. Players were suddenly grouping less because it was more efficient to solo grind in a lot of cases. So now we have players sick and tired of the same grind, and wanting something new. But if you compare it to what existed beforehand, I still feel that quest grinding is preferable to mob grinding. |
In a moment of nostalgia I downloaded UO recently. It's still fun. But it is tough to get into it with the 2d graphics and clunky interface. The mechanics still work though.
Smedley: "EverQuest Next will be the world's largest sandbox-style MMO ever made"
The Pub at MMORPG.COM « General Discussion 10/22/12 2:29:52 AM
Obviously we'll have to wait and see the implementation, but I think Smedley is dead on about where the genre needs to go. Generation, player created or driven content, those are the waves of the future. And it's great to see a major company embrace it.

Originally posted by DakirnEverquest started with a lot of quests. I know because I ran a site (EQ'Lizer) dedicated to them at launch. They weren't easy to find and didn't give great experience. But they probably had a few hundred at launch. |
With regards to a flagging system (sorry didn't see that post before)... On the regular servers you can choose to be Active or Reserve in the military. The default is reserve, and that offers you protection in your factions uncontested areas (which for OWON and FPR are very large). You will still be able to be killed in the contested areas. It's set up similar to how DAoC's frontiers were set up. You can advance your character completely in the protected areas, you don't have to PvP if you don't wish. Cities are created in the contested areas though, and rival nations will be able to kill you when in those areas. Your guards and turrets (which will spawn in the player created cities) will protect you in those areas though. I think the main problem with a flagging system on the normal servers would be that it would eliminate the territory control features. Controlling certain areas allows you to create choke points, control resources, etc. But that isn't really possible if players can avoid the PvP and just run by the players defending them. I think its a feature that works well in some games, but not too much to Repop. We are open to the idea of a PvE server if there is enough demand for it though. |
Actually there is one former SWG dev that Josh probably missed as it was just a part on his resume, but he is a volunteer who came on in the past 6 months just wanting to contribute to the project. He is the only former SOE employee on the team though. We should stress, the game is similar to SWG in spirit and some of its designs. But it is not an SWG clone in any way. Many of our mechanics are very different. But similar to SWG it is a sandbox, features deep crafting, city building, has a similar pet system, skills based, etc. The PvE game is very different from SWG though, and many of the mechanics of other areas are very different. Although both games are skills based, for example, there are no boxes and mastery in Repop. You can use DNA to improve skills, but you don't unlock boxes. Abilities are earned through skill trees, but not automatically, you must acquire the Training Cards for them. We have many similarities to SWG, but Repop is also a very different game. |
Can somebody explain the combat system?
General Discussion « The Repopulation 9/22/12 11:10:34 PM
A bit of extra information since this is often an source of confusion. - Action Mode is just a different way of control. It basically loops through your mouse clicks, what you clicked on, what you barely missed, the body part hit, how fast you clicked, if you are crouched, prone or standing, if your clicked targets were hostile or friendly and the modifier used (by default you have left mouse button for normal abilities, right mouse for momentum based abilities, and there is also a modifier key for defensive actions). You have an optional GUI which will show you all the abilities you know and to optionally inform you of each ability used. When action mode is enabled it interprets all of this information client side and then sends it to the server as an ability request. It will automatically keep track of what abilities are on cooldown, and try to find the most appropriate ability for what you were trying to do. The cooldowns are designed in a way that will attempt to make full use of your abilities. As a result, in Action Mode you just point and click at targets like you would in a first/third person shooter. It's still using the same RPG mode rolls and everything server side though and you still need to acquire abilities to do certain things. It's just a matter of which of the two control schemes you prefer. - Both modes are exactly the same to the server. It doesn't differentiate between the two, other than how it sends the FX. - When your in action mode your firing will automatically play client side FX on your client as soon as you fire to reduce the feel of latency. - In both modes the combat round (maximum actions you can do) is quicker than in your average MMO. Buffs and debuffs are typically shorter duration and occur through combat. - RPG Mode performs just how you'd expect an MMORPG to perform. Ability bars and cooldowns. Action mode still has the option of using ability bars, but it frees you up to do it all through the mouse. - When in Action Mode you use Mouselook. Meaning wherever you move the mouse you aim/face. - If you have action mode enabled and you open up any of the GUI windows it will automatically switch you into RPG Mode, and then switch you back into Action Mode when the window is closed (which you can also do by hitting escape). - There is no significant advantage to either mode. It's just a matter of preference. In some situational cases one mode may be better than the other. You could argue that RPG Mode gives you more fine control over what you want to do, but since you can still use ability bars/action keys, you actually have that in both modes but would be using it less often. For some weapons Action Mode may be easier for AoEs since it will automatically detect where to launch the AoE, rather than using a ground targeting reticle. That may or may not be advantageous. You can switch between the modes instantly though, by default by using CTRL-A. You can switch between first or third person by default by using CTRL-F. Next week's alpha build will also have a customizable third person camera allowing you to tweak your camera angle in third person or to quickly switch between presets. It could also be argued that since you have to click on opponents that RPG mode gives you less chance of missing, but it should be noted that if you miss your target Action Mode casts 5 additional raycasts in the nearby area trying to detect what you were trying to hit, giving you a little bit of leeway for missing. It also could be argued that if you are facing static targets that Action Mode allows you to more easily switch targets because you do not need to target and then use an ability, you simply click and it does both. |
Is this like SWG or not, simple yes or no

Originally posted by Burntvet I suppose you could apply some of that to any game that is not released. It has been alpha testing since June though, so I suppose it exists beyond a demo. The game is a late 2013 release, so it's not THAT far off. |
Originally posted by redman875 I really wish people would stop calling games sandboxes because you can craft a lot or grow things and theres player housing...really irritates me for some reason. No classes, no storline quests to feed people gear and xp, the ability to fully loot in pvp (high risk pvp not themepark syle where you die then get a free trip to your bind and no loss of anything) no factions also is a sandbox feature politics must be guild based and there must be something on the line such as territory or clan holdings. This is what makes a game sandbox. Players deciding what class or role they are not the character creation screen, players making their purpose not a storyline and NPC's, players giving themselves a point in game not a quest system, and a market and guild structure based on player politics and supply/demand. I think you oversimplified a little bit there. But I also think that the lines that separate the two are hard to draw out exactly. It means different things to different people. How many sandbox games allow you to build a house within the world, and not in a virtual instance? How many are able to allow you to create a city filled with dozens of them and other structures? Comparing the Inn Rooms of a game like Runes of Magic or AO for example, is a lot different than the sprawling housing areas in SWG or UO. Do many theme park games have day/night? Sure. How many of them alter the spawns based on them? Have shops that close? NPCs who hit the pub? Etc. As far as crafting is concerned, to me the difference between the sandbox and theme park approach to them is that theme park games typically involve a gear grind. High end crafting gear really doesn't have a place in them. It's all raid gear. Where in a sandbox the approach is very different. You can often exist entirely as a crafter, without being tied into the leveling system, and crafting items are generally among the best if not the best in the game. So yeah, sure both types have crafting, but they are very different uses of it, typically. On the list of things you consider a sandbox... I'll give you maybe no classes on that list, though I don't think being skills based makes a game sandbox. It is typically a sandbox feature though. Territory control also, as it causes player created activities. Repop of course has both of those things. The other things though I disagree with. Full loot is not a sandbox element. It's something that UO did and many sandbox titles since have done, but it's also one of the features that turns away casual players, and has caused sandboxes to become a niche genre. All games have factions, though I'm guessing your referring to PvP wise, and FFA. That's not sandbox. That's hardcore PvP. No storyline quests, I'd disagree there too. Is The Elder Scrolls series not sandbox because they have deep stories? Is Grand Theft Auto not sandbox because you can do the storyline, as well as the sandbox elements? SWG made the term theme park popular in the genre, and it's also considered by many to be the best sandbox MMO to date. I think when you drive players through story in a linear fashion, then it's no longer a sandbox. Having some story though is pretty much required. In a game like Repop you aren't really going to ever have any linear path. Once you leave the tutorial areas your pretty much in a big world. You won't have to look hard for something to do though because you will be receiving job offers in your mail pretty much constantly, catered to your location and skill set. As you travel the world you'll also see a lot of engagements happening. So there will constantly be things to do, but it's up to the player if they want to do them or not. I think the one big thing with sandbox and theme park discussions is that noone really knows where to draw the lines. To some players certain features are sandbox and to others they are not. To me though I think the biggest thing that differentiates the two is that theme park games typically lead you down a linear path chasing a carrot. Where sandbox games allow you to choose your own adventure. |
Hello everyone. I just posted the End of August report on the official site: http://www.therepopulation.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=277:end-of-august-2012-report&catid=61:new-frontpage-news&Itemid=428 Build notes are also printed below for your convenience: Abilities

My personal opinion on GW2 is that it's a breath of fresh air for the genre. A heavy focus on public quests and putting the social aspect back into the genre. WvW is also fun, and features like personal loot and the res mechanics might have sounded bad on paper to some of us (they did to me), but worked out brilliantly. The underwater areas are also top notch. It's not perfect of course, and some will focus on those aspects (lack of challenge, repetition, not enough story development, mediocre class system). But personally, I've had a blast playing it. And I think it's great to see a developer come in and try a lot of things that are outside of the norm. |
PvP? What separates this from SB, DFO and MO?
General Discussion « The Repopulation 8/27/12 3:03:21 AM
With regards to buffs, most of the buffs in Repop are short duration and either group buffs (such as motivational buffs or demoralizing debuffs) or are self only buffs that often are given when you perform another action as added utility. Instead what you often receive are Openings which will make players vulnerable to other attacks or benefit them if another ability is used. Then there are some toggle abilities that are self only such as stances. But if your group wipes you won't spend the next 3 minutes buffing everyone.

On a sidenote, on regular rule set there is also multiple PvP rewards, that don't involve looting another players items. - There are PvP engagements which will automatically distribute rewards to higher performers, or sometimes to all performers. They can also give negative achievements for failures. - You gain military experience every time you defeat a player from a rival nation. This military experience is used to gain military rank and military rank can be used as a filter on missions and as a requirement on items, and have a vendors to allow you to purchase those perks. - Rival Nation members also have their own loot table which will very rarely result in items, but will generally result you tearing their nations insignia off, which you can turn in to for additional military experience and a possibility of rewards. |

General Discussion « The Repopulation 8/20/12 3:33:10 PM
The current plan is to release two servers a Normal and a Hardcore. The Normal ruleset will be partially protected faction based PvP, which is similar to Dark Age of Camelot's, except with the addition of Rogue Nations. There will be no corpse looting on those servers and each faction has some areas which are protected unless they go to Active Military (which then allows them to be attacked anyplace, and to attack other Active Military members anyplace). The Hardcore ruleset will flag everyone as Active PvP, effectively removing the safe areas (though guards will still protect allied players) and will feature player looting. |
Repop is a Sandbox first and foremost. But it also incorporates some features that have been popular from theme park games, while giving them each a sandbox twist. It has both a randomized mutating public quest system (engagements), and a complex generated mission system, but there is no real linearity to the game. Once you finish the tutorial you can pretty much go out and play how you wish to play. Sandbox Elements - Complex Nation system. - City Building. - Home decorating. - Complex Crafting and extensive Harvesting systems which allow crafters to advance outside of combat. - Non-linear gameplay. - Generation schemes for both missions and engagements to create ever-changing content. - Your choices do matter. They can affect future work opportunities and can have an effect on how engagements filter through the world. - Skills based with special abilities. No class limitations. - Day/Night and Weather systems mix up the world. Some shops close and NPCs despawn at night time, some mobs are only available during certain times of day. Signs and lights also turn on or off during business hours. - Extensive pet system which allows you to tame many animals, or genetically engineer species by splicing their DNA. |

Stoke City vs. Liverpool: Date, Time, Live Stream, TV Info and Preview
Liverpool and its potent attack will travel to Britannia Stadium on Wednesday to face former Red Michael Owen and Stoke City.
Liverpool has been one of the most aggressive offensive teams in the EPL this season, as they lead the league in shots per game at 19.2. They also have the league's fourth-highest possession rate with 58.3 percent.
The main beneficiary of their attacking style has been Luis Suarez, who is fourth in the EPL with 11 goals. The Uruguayan striker is one of the most dangerous offensive players in the world, and he will look to solve a Stoke City defense that has allowed just two goals in their last six matches.
Thanks in part to that defense, the Potters haven't lost since Nov. 3. They will look to extend their eight-game unbeaten streak on Wednesday.
It's sure to be an exciting game, so make sure you tune in. Here is all the key information you need to know.
When: Wednesday Dec. 26, at 2:45 p.m. ET
Where: Brittania Stadium - Stoke-on-Trent, England
TV Coverage: BBC One
Live Stream: www.foxsoccer2go.com
Players to Watch
Liverpool: Luis Suarez - F
As I mentioned above, Suarez is one of the best goal scorers on the planet. He's an excellent dribbler with gorgeous footwork and good speed. He's also highly aggressive, as he leads the EPL with six shots per game. No one else has more than 4.3.
In addition to his offensive prowess, the occasionally quick-tempered Suarez is tied for fifth in the EPL with six yellow cards in 17 matches. Keep an eye on him, as he's a threat to score a goal or draw a card at any moment.
Stoke City: Peter Crouch - F
Michael Owen will be looking for his first goal against his former team, but Crouch will likely be the more important player on Wednesday.
The 6'7" Englishman is the Potters' top scorer this season with four goals, and he's a major reason why Stoke City wins more aerial duels per game than any other team (27.8). Unfortunately, Crouch has struggled to find the net recently, as he hasn't scored in his last 11 appearances.
Stoke City's defense is solid, but if it doesn't get production out of Crouch, it likely won't be able to secure the victory.
What will Wednesday's result be?
This will be an interesting contrast of styles, as the defensively-minded Potters will look to slow the likes of Suarez and Steven Gerrard. They have been able to frustrate opposing offenses for most of the season, but they haven't faced an attack like Liverpool's since their 4-2 loss to Manchester United.
I'm expecting a close game, but in the end Liverpool will escape Brittania Stadium with a win to improve to 7-7-5 on the season.
Final score: Stoke City 0 - Liverpool 1

Sem Schilt
Interview by SFUK Holland at 2H2H 2002. 17-02-02.
Copyright Susumu Gallery
Sem Schilt is very well known in the world of MMA. With his giant stature and his brutal and bone cracking KOs he is one of the favourites in the heavyweight division. In PRIDE and UFC he fights these days. Akira Shoij, Pete Williams and Satake were all not capable against the riot coming to them in the ring. Sem Schilt, a nice and polite guy. No big talks and he is just doing his job as he says.
SFUK Holland : How is you PRIDE career going Sem?
Sem Schilt : Good haha.
SFUK Holland : Are there any upcoming shows were we can see you in action again?
Sem Schilt : I hope in the end of April, in Japan!
SFUK Holland : Didnt 2H2H asked you for their show?
Sem Schilt : No, not this time.
SFUK Holland : Does it bother you, you are not fighting here tonight?
Sem Schilt : No, rather like to fight in Japan.
SFUK Holland : Why Japan?
Sem Schilt : The atmosphere, the fans, just the whole thing!
SFUK Holland : And it pays better?
Sem Schilt : Well uhm .yes it does. But that is not the biggest factor for fighting.
SFUK Holland : How is the show tonight here at 2H2H Sem?
Sem Schilt : I like it! Good fights and great crowd!
SFUK Holland : What was the best fight of the evening?
Sem Schilt : Paul Cahoon Vs Joop Kasteel. The groundwork, the striking, the whole thing. Everything was in it. But especially the groundwork. It went over and over, that was cool to see.
SFUK Holland : What do you think of the ground rule here at 2H2H. I mean in Pride you can stick as long as it takes on the ground. Here if the there is inactivity on the ground you have to stand up. Well?
Sem Schilt : I think it is a rule for Dutch people. The crowd wants to see stand up. Like in Japan there fond of the ground fighting. For the crowd it is a good rule. For some fighters it can be advantage, for some disadvantage.
SFUK Holland : In Japan - are people recognizing you on the streets?
Sem Schilt : Sometimes yes.
SFUK Holland : How are your team mates doing in PRIDE?
Sem Schilt : There are doing all right too.
SFUK Holland : What fighter is an example to you?
Sem Schilt : Sakuraba is a perfect example, Wanderlei Silva is a very aggressive fighter, I like that.
SFUK Holland : Anything for the fans?
Sem Schilt : Regards!
SFUK Holland : Thank you Sem and enjoy the evening!
Sem Schilt : You too!

Panasonic develops 3D standard for BD disc
Panasonic has submitted a proposal that describes a way of storing 3D content on conventional Blu-ray discs to the Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA). The Japanese vendor intends to make an early contribution to the standardisation process in order to avoid potential format wars – and, of course, to promote its own interests. According to Nikkei Electronics Asia, Panasonic is also thinking about submitting a corresponding 3D extension to the HDMI standard. The BDA plans to discuss the proposals before the end of the year and hopes to present first commercial results in 2010.
Panasonic's proposal closely follows well-established standard technologies and avoids proprietary methods. The images are to be encoded with the two-channel encoder already part of MPEG-4. The second channel will only contain the differential signal of the first channel, which considerably reduces the data volume. Panasonic estimates that this approach creates 1.5 times instead of twice the amount of 3D signal data and in addition, it allows the 3D discs to be played in 2D on conventional BD players. The video tracks for the right and left eye each offer the full HD resolution of 1920 × 1080 pixels. The data is to be transferred to the display via HDMI, and the stereoscopic images for the right and left eye are to alternate in each frame. Finally, a flag in the MPEG-4 stream is to indicate that the material is 3D and tell the respective hardware how to handle the images.
At the Ceatec show in Japan in October, Panasonic presented a plasma display with full HD resolution and capable of rendering 3D images using the proposed technology. The 103 inch plasma display received 120 frames – 60 each for the right and the left eye – per second from a modified Blu-ray player and alternated the frames accordingly. Active shutter goggles were used to align the stereoscopic images with the viewer's respective eye, which created a 3D impression. A similar stereoscopic approach is also used in digital 3D cinema, although 3D movies more often tend to use passive polarising goggles – which are dramatically cheaper.
Using polarising filters has another advantage over more primitive colour-separated 3D, used in cinemas from the 1950s. These used glasses with one red and one green lens, each almost completely blocking the light passing through the other, so that each eye saw a different image – an 3D anaglyph image. However, this dramatically restricts the range of colours that can be shown, which was acceptable in the days of black and white films, but is not today. Since the human eye is almost completely unable to detect the polarisation of light – unlike the eyes of some invertebrates, including mantis shrimp, cephalopods and most insects – to humans, polarising spectacles appeal completely clear, enabling full-colour 3D film projection.

February 1, 2011 Gender Gap at WikipediaUh oh! What's a prog to do? According to the New York Times, "surveys suggest that less than 15 percent of its [Wikipedia's] hundreds of thousands of contributors are women." But what portion are transgendered? Do surveys suggest anything about that?
That's right, authors "obsessed" with facts are "an intractable obstacle" for a reference work. And what are the malign results of this rampant male chauvinism? "Even the most famous fashion designers -- Manolo Blahnik or Jimmy Choo -- get but a handful of paragraphs." And "a topic generally restricted to teenage girls, like friendship bracelets, can seem short at four paragraphs." Oh, the horror! To buttress the Times' case, Noam Cohen interviewed a Harvard fellow:
"Even misogynists"! Yikes. Yes, "it is ironic" that "these things -- freedom, openness, egalitarian ideas" can cause such problems. Please save us, Fellow Reagle, please! Can you just strangle "these things" in the name of access and fairness and gender neutrality? Even more distressing, this gender imbalance is symptomatic of a larger problem:
What, the op-ed pages of the New York Times and the Washington Post practicing male chauvinism? Say it isn't so! And what proactive, affirmative steps is Sue Gardner, executive director of the Wikimedia Foundation, taking to address this horrific gender gap? Ms. Gardner said that for now she was trying to use subtle persuasion and outreach through her foundation to welcome all newcomers to Wikipedia, rather than advocate for women-specific remedies like recruitment or quotas.

The only thing that I would've wanted different would've been for the diamond to have a deeper and darker "chocolate" color as this looks more grey than brown. Other than that, it's prefect! The prongs look very delicate and precise, which is what I wanted! I previously had another made by a different company, but there's NO comparison to the quality! The other looks like a first timer made it because the prongs were all uneven and crooked, but if that wasn't bad enough, it only had 3.5 prongs! The one made by you is beautiful and looks like a professional goldsmith/jeweler made it, which is what it's suppose to look like! I'm going to want others made, but I would like the diamonds to have a more vibrant, darker and deeper color to them. I realize that with it being a small diamond head, it's not going to be as vibrant as a half carat diamond would be, but I do want to be able to know the color without having to strain or second guess it. I'm very happy with my purchase and I'm looking forward to continue to do business with you and have my custom diamond Monroe heads made by "The Chain Gang"!
Many thanks,
Tanja F.

This was my first marathon and my first time in Texas. The course is flat and beautiful and the people are incredibly supportive. The low humidity and mild temperature help a lot as well. The hotel recommended on the website was also accommodating in allowing marathoners a late check-out so that we could shower after the race.
Well organized race. Will be back.
This was my first marathon and I couldn't have picked a better one to do. The volunteers were wonderful and all the runners were supportive of each other. I loved that your name was handwritten on your bib and the signs they posted for everyone was a great touch. Thanks for making my first marathon such a great experience.
Just want to thank organizers and volunteers for the outstanding preparation and support during the race (especially the "motivation sheets" for every runner). So overall - it was definitely worthwhile to come all the way from cold Canada. The course was also very nice and running the loops was much more fun than we expected.
This was so much fun. It was my first marathon and thought everything was organized very well. The weather was perfect. There was plenty of food. The course was beautiful. The runners were great at supporting one another. It would have been nice to have a few more spectators, but the ones who were there were fantastic, calling us by name. What a fun run!
AMAZING 0 this marathon was very well run and the atmosphere was fantastic. The fan support was unbelievable. PowerAde, water and food every 1.5 miles, and the people running were a hoot! Beautiful scenery and the personalized signs of every runner's name was just an inspiration. Thank you, Steve and Paula.
This is a great, "small town" marathon. The 4 out-and-back loops were a bit tough mentally but the scenery is beautiful. The support is wonderful and the runners are all very supportive of each other. Your name is HANDwritten on your bib so everyone can cheer for you. The stuffed monkey with your place was fun. Definitely recommend to anyone looking to PR.
Cool way to ring in the new year; incredibly beautiful course. So much for your money - all KINDS of pizza, PB&J, cookies, hat, shirt, monkey, mug. LOTS of diversity among the small field, very kind available organizers. Extremely cool. Even the course being a loop was not so bad. The names on the bibs was nice, as well as names on the trees. Very good.
I thought it was a great event. The field limit kept it to just the right number of people for the course. I have already recommended it to friends.
The Texas Marathon was simply fantastic. Steve and Paula Boone did an incredible job at organizing this marathon. The course was well marked and clean. There were no traffic concerns since it was run entirely on greenbelts. The volunteers stayed throughout the entire marathon and were helpful and friendly. Food was plentiful... even at the end! Personal messages of encouragement were placed on the course for each and every runner. Steve ran the marathon and was friendly and encouraging on the course. I can't say enough good things about this marathon. Don't miss it!!!!!

Pathfinder Adventure Path #35: War of the River Kings (Kingmaker 5 of 6) (PFRPG)
Chapter 5: "War of the River Kings" Can two kings truly trust one another? King Irovetti, ruler of Pitax and potential rival to the leaders of the eastern Stolen Lands, opens his gates and hospitality to the lords of that realm. Within his city of shallow indulgences and crude decadence, he hosts a tournament ostensibly meant to foster friendship and peace, but fraught with dangers all its own. Is the King of Pitax's good will sincere, or does he harbor a more sinister goal? And are the PCs fated to gain an opponent who commands not only a nation, but allies from a deadly other realm?
Pathfinder Adventure Path is Paizo Publishing's monthly 96-page, perfect-bound, full-color softcover book printed on high-quality paper. It contains an in-depth Adventure Path scenario, stats for about a half-dozen new monsters, and several support articles meant to give Game Masters additional material to expand their campaign. Pathfinder Adventure Path volumes use the Open Game License and work with both the Pathfinder RPG and the standard 3.5 fantasy RPG rules set.

Lyrics to Pump Up The Valuum
There are two sides to the punk coin. On one side, serious and somewhat political acts such as Fugazi are in it for the pulpit. NOFX is firmly stamped on the other side, where it's less soapbox than a threat of getting their mouths washed out with soap. Not since the heyday of the Dead Milkmen has there been a more insincere and politically incorrect punk-rock outfit, and the world is a more entertaining place for it. Pump Up the Valium's lyrics are first-class juvenilia. The backwards fantasy "What's the Matter with Parents Today?" poses a Twilight Zone-like fantasy in which front man fat Mike laments how "Dad's dressing like Motley Crue" and "Mom's hair's dyed bright blue." There are also tracks such as "My Vagina" and "Herojuana," which are pretty self-explanatory. Some might find such nonstop irreverence tedious if the band weren't so tight while being impolite. --Jason Josephes

The Distinct And Robust Benefits Of Social Media Marketing
Happenings in recent years clearly shows a trend toward the value of focusing on social networking and marketing. There are a lot of web marketers who are helping offline businesses acquire social marketing campaigns at Facebook, primarily. But the good news is you can try this, as well, and work to set up your own place there. Keep in mind that every day you delay is a day lost for you and a day gained for your competitors. Essentially there are very many marketing strategies you can use, and each of them provides their own particular type of influence. You are the only person in the position to know which strategy is perfect for your situation.
Creating greater awareness of your brand will always be a successful approach in business. Depending on your particular business, you can brand your self or your business. They do not automatically mean the same thing for all people, businesses and conditions. If you only focused on three sites, then obviously they would have to be Youtube, Facebook and also Twitter. You will also need to know that carrying out business at each of the three is completely different in many ways. You can cash in on enabling your market have some fun and that can work perfectly with all of them. One of the achievable benefits of fun/entertainment is that's where the viral effect is most likely to occur.
You do want to interact with your market, and that is what social internet marketing is all about. You can make use of that to your advantage in a number of smart ways, and this means leveraging your options. Whenever you are able to individually talk to your market, then you can use these opportunities to get responses from them about anything associated to the market. So that implies it can be an effective market research application. You can conduct a different and better kind of customer care at these sites, in addition. While you're there you can help them know you are there, and then simply make yourself available if there are any problems. You are going to be in a position to give a brand new, highly personal type of customer service experience.
These sites are excellent sources of great market research in a lot of ways. There are billions of discussions occurring at social networking sites, and that is the key element. The persons in your market will be involved in real conversations about what is important. These people will chat about services they've used or products they have bought. Other people will talk about their troubles and what possibly helped or did not help them. You can notice how they talk about everything, and that is highly important. The explanation this matters a great deal is because you want to speak to your audience in the terms and words they use. Your marketing and advertising messages and copy will convert significantly better when it speaks the exact same language as your target audience.

Carrie Underwood Carries Jill Milan Handbags to American Music Awards
Luxury handbag designer Jill Milan announced that Carrie Underwood carried not one but two of her handbags to the 2012 American Music Awards, where her album "Blown Away" was named Favorite Country Album. Ms. Underwood carried Jill Milan's 450 Sutter Clutch in gold as she arrived on the red carpet with husband Mike Fisher of the National Hockey League's Nashville Predators. She carried the New Canaan Clutch in textured black faux patent to the award ceremony itself.
"Carrie looked wonderful, and we are so pleased to have been part of her ensembles both on the red carpet and at the awards ceremony," said Jill Fraser, co-founder and CEO of Jill Milan. "The sequined gown she paired with our 450 Sutter Clutch made for a great look – it's no wonder she has been recognized on so many best-dressed lists." Best-dressed lists and publishers complimenting Ms. Underwood's fashion choices include People Style Watch, Just Jared, E! Online, the Huffington Post and Billboard.
"Our evening bags continue to be a popular red-carpet choice for celebrities," Fraser said. "The 450 Sutter was also carried by Anne Hathaway to premieres of 'The Dark Knight Rises,' Rachel Nichols carried the 450 Sutter to the premiere of her new movie 'Alex Cross' and Eva Longoria carried our Art Deco Clutch to the 'Desperate Housewives' wrap party."
Jill Milan clutches have caught the eyes of fashion media as well as celebrities in recent months. W Magazine included the Holland Park Clutch in a piece featuring model Linda Evangelista in the September issue, and the 450 Sutter Clutch is highlighted in "Extravagant Evening," a feature in W's September trends supplement. W also highlighted the Art Deco Clutch in its April issue's "Most Wanted" feature. The Zoe Report recently recognized the Newbury Street Portfolio for its ability "to go from the office to cocktail hour."
The 450 Sutter is a cylindrical metal clutch, entirely handmade by an Italian jeweler, and the logo at the top of the clutch functions as the bag's closure. Available in gold or silver, it is part of the Fall/Winter 2012-2013 Collection. The New Canaan Clutch Ms. Underwood carried featured an Italian textured faux patent exterior and fully lined interior. These and the rest of the Jill Milan collection are available online at http://www.JillMilan.com.

Security Code Review
It is well known that eliminating software bugs and vulnerabilities at the requirements stage and early in the software development lifecycle (SDLC) can reduce the cost of repair over one hundred-fold compared to remedial action after go-live. The ideal is for code to be written under a secure development lifecycle which includes regular code review throughout the cycle, rather than as a one-off exercise just before going live. Unfortunately, the cost of true threat modelling is prohibitive for most organisations, other than the largest software vendors or financial institutions.
Not only is remedial action less costly the earlier it is addressed, but early review results in fewer fixes being required in the future. commissum's blended approach, a combination of managed source code analysis and manual review, aligned to your organisation's software development lifecycle, offers a cost-effective alternative approach that can run in parallel throughout the development cycle. commissum's service offers a comprehensive, accurate and targeted method of detecting potential security vulnerabilities while the code is still in the development stage.
commissum partners with Checkmarx
commissum's partner for static code analysis is the one of the leading innovators in this field, Checkmarx. Checkmarx was recognized as a Visionary in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Static Application Security Testing; and was named Gartner Cool Vendor in Application Security intheir 2010-report.
The Checkmarx approach provides a comprehensive source code security analysis solution offering both hundreds of out of the box security queries and customisation capabilities, designed to cover the widest possible range of vulnerability checks. The patented Checkmarx query language (CxQL) is able to identify vulnerabilities in the code, with virtually zero false-positives, as well as allowing customers to tailor existing queries or design their own queries.
A unique feature of the Checkmarx's offering is its ability to scan the source code at any stage of the development cycle using its innovative Virtual Compiler. The solution seamlessly integrates into the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), and provides a high degree of flexibility and configurability by supporting a wide range of vulnerability categories, OS platforms, programming languages and frameworks.
Features of the Checkmarx solution include:
- Extremely accurate: Virtually zero false: positives provide an effective solution to include in SDLC.
- Patented Virtual Compiler: Scan any code fragment even non-compiled or linked, enabling security testing at early stages of the development cycle.
- Attack flow visualization: Attack path is fully presented for easy investigation providing full flaw reasoning.
- Query language: An intuitive query language is available for tailoring checks to customer needs.
- Vulnerability coverage: Hundreds of out-of-the-box security checks.
- Business logic vulnerability review: Unmatched capability to investigate logical flaws that can lead to substantial business risk.
- Wide coverage of languages: many programming languages including all Java & .NET families as well as cloud based languages like Apex and Visual Force.
When combined with the commissum wider Application Assurance Lifecycle Security approach, security is built in to the process, not merely added on. An approach that meets the requirements laid down by PCI DSS, as well as being best practice for any development project.

"commissum provided us with a high quality service. We found the project team helpful and flexible in responding to changes in requirement; the technical staff in particular were excellent.

Ready in 45 minutes
This chicken pot pie is an easy, tasty dish.
"Liked it for a cozy meal when there is not much in the cupboards and not wanting to go to the store. A frozen bag of Costco chicken helped ( put in 2 chic breasts). I subbed cream of celery bc it was on hand but I think the cream of chicken would be better. I think it could handle 2 cans instead. I did double the topping but I think it soaked up all the juice so I would stick with that but do more soup because I just love the doughiness : ) Next time, won't do vegies with lentel beans in it, as it was not a fav in the house, but it was a good thing to make and will do it again. "
- TxgirlontherocksDirections:
1. Heat oven to 400 F. Mix vegetables, chicken and soup in ungreased glass pie plate, 9x1 1/4 inches.
2. Stir together remaining ingredients (bisquick and milk) with fork until blended. Pour over chicken mixture..
3. Bake 30 minutes or until golden brown.
