![]() ![]() However, ax throwers are better since they increase damage and silence enemies constantly. Otherwise, I would have combined the Sorcerer Mage ‘Orange mage’ with Arcane Archers for lowering magic resistance AND armor, magic area, sleeping the giants, + blocking + □. This was a hard choice, but Tesla ignores 50% of armor and is just so OP, plus the best other artillery towers combined. I feel confident in these picks for a couple reasons.ġ: The stunning from KRF upgrades makes Mecha and DWAARP insane, broken even, so both towers combined are able to cover mass enemies, literally stunning everything CONSTANTLY, and instakills.Ģ. Moon Sentinels: these are the best choice easily because they SPAWN EVERY 10 SECONDS! And they have the highest armor of any reinforcements □□ 1: Mecha (missles, fast attack, good damage, slowing oil, INFINITE STUNNING UPGRADE) 2: Tesla (IGNORES 50% ARMOR (no need for slow magic towers that only targets 1 enemy) best tower ever made probably, amazing area control, high damage) 3: DWAARP (instakills BABY, massive hit box, burns for days, +MORE INFINITE STUNNING) 4: Tribal Ax Throwers (Silence and 40% extra damage on good size areas constantly) 5: Necromancer (provides insane barracks, does magic damage and has area poison) Lightning (most damage, accuracy, and slowing of all spells □) Since upgrades are maxed from each game for each respective choice, I feel confident in these puppies!Įiskalt (AREA TRUE DAMAGE, slowing, and his ultimate is literally A FROST WAND EVERY LIKE 24s) ![]() The instakill and stalling from the teleport are unreal in a chokepoint against giants and tankier enemies. ![]() If there were less enemies instead of a large number of enemies and each enemy was stronger in the waves then i'd change this for another Arcane Wizard. Also pestilence deals AOE true damage countering its weakness which is magic resist.įorest Keepers KRO - For their true dmg spears and because they can heal all my Necro troops. You don't even need a barracks because of the reanimation ability making dead enemies a constantly replenishing barracks and death knight. Necromancer KRF - Again one of the strongest towers ever. ![]() Tribal Axethrower KRF - Dmg buffs all towers and spell nullification against healers etc is super strong if placed properly as a support tower. Ignores a portion of armor insane AOE damage through chaining literally obliterates crowds even if single target dmg isn't as high (the single target damage is still pretty high)Īrcane Wizard KR1 - Does massive damage with its auto attack and Death Ray and Teleport are the 2 best abilities in the game for single target dmg and stalling and this tower has both. Tesla from KR1 - Easily one of the best towers in any game. 40 hp more than KR1 Legionnaires, lower ranged attack dmg but higher armor and base melee dmg. Also scorched earth damage beats the lightning wind slowdown imo. Same dmg as the KR2 ROF but with 10 seconds less on its cooldown and an additional meteor in the maxed ROF. On paper his kit sounds better than Bonehart but Bonehart's damage is just through the roof. Second would be Faustus from KRO because again he's incredibly broken, true dmg strike, aoe fireblast, great autoattack, teleporting troops for stalling and nullifying magic abilities. The amount of damage and AOE he has is just obscene and he's flying too so he can't be targeted by half the troops. Using him feels almost unfair like you've somehow managed to unlock a playable endgame boss. Bonehart is easily the most broken hero of any KR game. I just started KR Vengeance so I can't really comment on towers and heroes from that game just yet but between the others: All Towers are fully upgraded from the beginning, so cost is not a factor at all. Hero: Choose one Hero, like Eiskalt Spell: KR1-KRF Rain of Fire / KRO Thunderbolt / KRV Soul Tickle Impact Reinforcements: KR1 Legionnaires / KRF Sworn Blades / KRO Moon Sentinels / KRV Demon Guards or Hellion Tridents Towers: Choose any 5 main Towers from the KR1/KRF/KRO/KRV repetition allowedĪll things have their relevant star upgrades (like Smart Targeting for Tesla, for example). With this information in mind, what Towers, Hero and Spells will you choose? Please state your response in this format: You also don't know about the layout of the map, except for a single statement that says 'There are 5 Strategic Points (Tower placement spots) concentrated around a zone, which will be your chokepoint.' Pretty vague, but at least you know that it's quite a tight spot. You only know that different tribes won't be mixed together (so no Demon Lords + Bandersnatches). You'll face a variety of foes (also from all four games), and you don't know their size or composition. I created this thread to discuss what the best Towers for a chokepoint would be, from all four. ![]() ![]() ![]() You will notice right away when you explore a map looking for the old money pickups, that they are gone. Vicarious Visions are able to make these changes work by removing the currency pickups from the maps altogether. I was unable to notice any balancing or progression related issues moving back and forth between the two games if I did not go too far into the campaign on one single game. You could potentially clear the entire first game to build up the stats on your skater and then, go over and crush the second game. You carry the same stats and skater between THPS1 and THPS2. The character progression has been combined across both games. The first real change that I noticed in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2, is that they are not fooling around with that plus symbol in the title of the game. The timed formula with the smaller broken down levels still holds up. The team here has done a great job keeping that basic formula intact. Each challenge unlocks money or skill points that can be spent to upgrade the appearance or stats of your skater. From there you get 2-minute runs to complete a series of challenges. You pick your skater then take to either THPS1 or THPS2. Though it is just as easy to jump into if you are new to the scene. Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 as a whole is still both games you know and love. The major changes include 37 additional music tracks and a combined campaign of THPS1 and THPS2. ![]() The game is going to play just like you imagine, and look even better. The skating mechanics as well as original level design are completely intact. Additionally, there are new multiplayer and park creator modes. Both games have been completely re-created from the ground up with new environmental assets, lighting, skater models, and music tracks. You can pick up the game on PS4, Xbox, and PC. Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 is a single release in a discounted package of both Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 and 2. Vicarious Visions, now home to some of the original minds behind THPS, are being tasked to bring the original game and its sequel, back to life in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2. Fast forward almost exactly 21 years later. The game elevated the athletes, brands and, even musical acts from the game to mainstream popularity. Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater would go on to elevate professional skateboarding to heights never imagined. On September 29th, 1999, publisher Activision and developer Neversoft would team up with professional skateboarder Tony Hawk to release one of the most influential games of all time. ![]() ![]() ![]() Make sure PHP-FPM is listening on port 9000: Ln -sfv /usr/local/opt/php56/ ~ /Library/LaunchAgents/Īnd start PHP-FPM: launchctl load -w ~ /Library/LaunchAgents/ ~/.zshrcĬreate a folder for our LaunchAgents and symlink the start/stop service: mkdir -p ~ /Library/LaunchAgents # If you use ZSH echo 'export PATH="$(brew -prefix homebrew/php/php56)/sbin:$PATH"' > ~/.zshrcĮcho 'export PATH="/usr/local/sbin:$PATH"' > ~/.zshrc &.

In the words of another incredibly imaginative person “all you need is love.” And that things like friendship and love are the most important things we can have. The movie reminds us of something that we should probably tell ourselves all the time: we are enough. The universal theme in this one is one that I think everyone experiences sometimes, even kids: the feeling that we’re not enough. Following along with the order of the podcast that has a friend in me, Unspooled, we are at Toy Story (1996), written and directed by John Lasseter. This brings us to Pixar’s first and one of its best. And while this includes things that can keep kids entertained (as animation can so easily do), it also assumes that kids are smart enough to resonate with a great story. ![]() This is the original intention of both animation and Walt Disney himself. Gone are trendy references and fart jokes, and instead we have stories that make us think. Their movies are smart, often deep, and contain themes that will be relevant to people at any age, thus creating flicks that everyone will voluntarily want to watch throughout their lives. ![]() Instead they make movies for people, and they throw in elements that will be entertaining to kids. ![]() Pixar, on the other hand, doesn’t do this. To keep the grown-ups happy studios usually throw in pop culture references or thinly veiled sexual innuendo. Afterall, kids are the often the ones wanting to see the movies, which means the parents have to see them too. Most animated movies are made for kids, with some parts thrown in for adults. The answer to why they’re better lies in the approach. The simple answer is that they’re better. Pixar DESTROYS all of them-both with critics and audience. The making of Toy Story 2, especially due to a late overhaul of almost the entire film, was so intense that many animators developed carpal tunnel syndrome, suffered strains and "by the time the film was complete, a full third of the staff would have some kind of repetitive stress injury," Ed Catmull, the president of Pixar, revealed to the Los Angeles Times.A question often asked is “what makes a Pixar film so much better than other contemporary animated films?” The endless stream of Dreamwerx movie, the Emoji one, the Hotel Transylvania series. Fortunately, Galyn Susman, supervising technical director, had back-up files at her home as she had recently given birth and had been working from home more often.ġ3. When another employee noticed it in the nick of time, 90 percent of the film was still erased and the back-up files were nowhere to be found. During production of the sequel, the entire film was nearly destroyed in 1998 when a staffer accidentally hit a button that would erase all the files. It would go on to score a rare 100 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes.ġ2. When the studio initially started planning for a sequel, they envisioned a direct-to-DVD follow-up for Toy Story 2, as a majority of the animators were working on A Bug's Life. Toy Story 3, released in 2010, and Toy Story 4, released in 2019, proved just how much staying power the Disney and Pixar franchise had, with each follow-up grossing over $1 billion worldwide, with the third film winning Oscars for Best Animated Film, Best Original Film and earning a Best Picture nomination, a rarity for an animated movie.Īnd now, fans are going to infinity and beyond thanks to Chris Evans' Lightyear.ġ1. ![]() More than 20 years ago, on November 24, 1999, the stakes couldn't have been higher for Sheriff Woody, Buzz Lightyear and the rest of their toy friends.Īfter the surprise success of 1995's Toy Story, which was the first full-length movie to be made entirely using computer-generated imagery, the expectations were high for the long-awaited sequel, which had a troubled production shoot and many script revisions.įortunately, the magic was still there, with Toy Story 2, led by Tom Hanksand Tim Allen, going on to gross almost $500 million worldwide and proved these toys still had a lot of playtime left in them. ![]() ![]() As of this articles publishing (July 2020), ABG still owns the name Thomasville Furniture under their umbrella of over 50 furniture company names. Then, Authentic Brands Group (ABG) purchased these names from Heritage Home Group in 2018. In 2018, Heritage Home Group purchased companies like Thomasville, Harden Furniture and Drexel Furniture. In recent years, 2014 and on, the name was sold several different times. Thomasville does not manufacture furniture in their North Carolina workshops any longer. Many people ask, Is Thomasville Furniture still in business? The short answer is, no. In addition to operating numerous factories, the company had several hundred retail stores throughout the country which sold furniture produced by the Thomasville name. As the company experienced continued success, it began to produce a variety of furniture, including bedroom sets, dressers, tables and more. ![]() The original Thomasville Furniture company was best known for its handcrafted chairs.

In 2014, Thomasville, then owned by Heritage Home Group, announced the end of operations in its native city. The partnership yielded a line of versatile traditionalist centre tables, seating and other pieces with a contemporary twist and saw Carter offering a fresh take on the classic work for which Thomasville is known. In 2008, Thomasville introduced a new signature collection in collaboration with designer Darryl Carter. It represented the largest launch in Thomasville''s history, boosting the company''s sales and brand image. The collection, which included sleigh beds, chests, dining tables and more, drew on Chippendale furniture and the French Rococo style. This was followed in 2004 by the Ernest Hemingway collection, released to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the writer''s Nobel Prise. Upon seeing the collection, Bogart''s widow, actress Lauren Bacall, remarked, "They haven''t missed a trick." Inspired by the Art Deco movement as well as the Hollywood Regency style, the theatrical line of alluring mahogany chests, mirror-topped nesting tables and other furnishings positioned glamour and sophistication front and centre. In 2002, Thomasville unveiled the Humphrey Bogart collection, the first of two highly successful licenced collections. ![]() In 1995, Thomasville was purchased by Interco Inc. The manufacturer also established Thomasville Home Furnishing stores to carry the company’s products exclusively. Thomasville quickly grew and expanded, and was featured in hundreds of retail stores across America. Dubbed " The Big Chair," it was rebuilt in 1951 to a height of 30 feet and still serves as the town''s most notable landmark. In 1922, there was even a 13-foot replica of the original chair design installed in the town square. ![]() People loved Thomasville chairs so much that demand surged for more types of seating and other furnishings. ![]() Thomasville’s initial offerings were limited to one item - the Thomasville chair - and it was known in its early days as the Thomasville Chair Company. The neighbouring city of High Point, home to Tomlinson and others, would one day be known as the capital of American-made furniture, while iconic mid-century modern brands Century, Broyhill and Drexel also opened their doors in the so-called “Tar Heel State.” Thomasville was founded in 1904 in the town of Thomasville, North Carolina. Today, every vintage solid wood Thomasville cabinet, dining chair and dining table is a charming piece of American furniture history.
