According to Article 106 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice, disciplinary action for impersonating an officer can include court martial, fines, and imprisonment. Crunch is actually employed as a member of the armed forces, which might be the case if he were, say, operating under a pseudonym. There are different laws for civilians and military personnel, so the outcome would depend on whether or not Mr. Such flagrant disregard for regulations would carry serious implications. Chris Servello told the Wall Street Journal that, “We have notified NCIS.” Sarah Flaherty explained that “our personnel records do not show a ‘Cap’n Crunch’ who currently serves or has served in the Navy.” More ominously, Lt. Guppy may be helmed by a spokescharacter of fabricated credentials caused enough of an uproar among the fan base that the question was posed to the United States Navy. Even when apparently serving as Ensign Crunch, however, he has continued to erroneously make use of the title Cap’n. Over the years, he has variously appeared with anywhere from one to three stripes. Per regulation, captains wear four stripes, commanders three, lieutenants two, and ensigns one, with additional thinner stripes for grades between. The most readily apparent way for the general public to identify a captain would be the number of stripes displayed on an individual’s sleeve. Navy follows a strict code defining how uniforms are to reflect rank. Once she had the flavor nailed, the product was launched and the world got the Cap’n, and really sore gums.Īs for the Cap’n, one might assume that a great deal of research went into designing the saccharine sailor’s uniform, but they would be incorrect. Towards this end, she tried to mimic something close to a brown sugar, butter and rice concoction her grandmother used to make her as a child. As to that flavor, Low, who by the way was also involved with the development of Almond Joy and Mounds, as well as the Heath bar, states she was attempting to come up with that ineffable quality known as “want more-ishness” with this particular product.

It seems a trade off between a more compact world that is rendered/loaded faster versus a bigger and diverse world with rendering issues.Ībove was a summary but some things that annoy me regarding the rendering issues in Subnautica. I did not play Below Zero yet but I heard it performs way better on consoles in terms of rendering etc. It might be better on PC, Xbox, PS5 or PS4 (Pro), I do not know about that. It is scary when you can hear but not see an aggressive leviathan but this is caused by slow rendering. The same applies a bit to the scary part for the wrong reasons. After that the horror of rendering issues ruined that same experience. However I am a PS4 (Slim) player and I only had that "discovery" feeling up to the moment I build my Seamoth and onwards. Swimming or using the Seaglide only definitely gives both the discovery and scary experience. I will describe it as discovering a new biome. I will suggest you take BZ as a Subnautica sequel that it's nice to play right after you play the main game, but honestly, it's nothing new. I don't fancy the way the devs chose to tell the story this time.ĭon't get me wrong, I really really enjoyed BZ and I played it right to the end (well kinda, since the end end is not released yet) but I can tell you right from the start that something was missing. I think there are new things that are nice and you will enjoy as a Subnautica fan, plot that you will like because it's tied to the original game and it's nice to keep finding new things about this world and its story.īut if I have to be completely honest with you: you are not going to find the same feeling of playing Subnautica for the first time there.Īnd, on the other hand, the changes they added to BZ I think that take some of the original Subnautica magic away. A few things change, and there are a other things that are beautiful and will surprise you. A lot of things are the same and there are pretty much no surprises. We know the drill because not so much has changed. The thing is, this is completely lost to BZ because we already know what to do. That amazes you and frightens you in equals parts. You find out that there is only one way to go: deep. When you have no idea what you do, you are alone, you start to figure things out, everything is new and every little thing you do shows you how the world works. I think there is something so beautiful that makes us fall in love with Subnautica: it's the discovering phase. ![]() I'm a hardcore Subnautica fan and I'm trying to be 100% honest with you without spoiling anything. I played the latest and final update of BZ. Each alien structure in the first game had meaning and purpose. They are literally just plot MacGuffin to arbitrarily place you in the next story chunk. The alien structures you find have no significance. In below zero you just kind of putter around a little aquarium running fetch quests. S1 constantly made the player go into uncomfortable situations. The way that they forced you to go past huge dangerous creatures to get uncover the mystery. Yea, I’m Subnautica 1 you had so many dangers! The things that would hunt you down. ![]() ![]() (Not scary at all!) everything underwater was just mushed together and confusing for some reason. The on land beast things were just annoying. Everything to do with the land sections, I hated. That was unknown, creepy, and otherworldly. The one cool part was the giant vent gardens. The ones in BZ just look like sharks and whales. The leviathans were threatening and otherworldly. Idk, In the first game, I was terrified pretty much all the time. Maybe the sea truck to make it all faster. ![]() The parts where some deep diving was necessary, all you have to do is use oxygen plants. The robo penguin was cute, but it was ultimately useless except for one plot point. The part with the spoiler(ice Worm), yup, I just ran through. I literally just ran and swam through most of the game. I found myself with no need to upgrade stuff to prepare for a big journey. To me, BZ was lacking in depth literally and figuratively.

I mean, if you think of Zooropa, or Passengers, this is not that. It's not quite what people would expect a U2 experimental thing would be. I think there is experimentation in there.

However, I speak a bit about how great I find this to be in this article if you want to check it out. Many people may not like this and come to play D&D for a completely different reason. In order to get to the dungeon and back every little resource the party had and could find was vital for survival. Food, water, hunting, foraging, pillaging abandoned places to survive. Hexcrawling in this manner introduced a whole new survival aspect to the game. There was a high chance for players to find random encounters on the way, making the world not only feel more real and untamed but also to take away some of the players’ sacred resources. The adventure was both the travelling and dungeon-delving as a whole. From there, they would have to travel to a dungeon by using these hexmaps I was talking about, grab all the loot and return to city. Yep! Gary Gygax asked players to get the Outdoor Survival board game by Avalon Hill in order to use it as a world map.īack at the start of this awesome hobby, players would have a home base in cities. In order for players to explore a terrain or move from one location to the entrance of the dungeon provided in a module, they would have to use a separate game. Hexcrawling origin for D&DĪt first, when D&D was still on its roots from first edition things were much different. ![]() Thus, hexcrawling is the open-world adventuring that is done by exploring what lies in every hex traversed, while going from a point A to a point B. Treasure maps are not actually hexmaps, but do show these important spots in a very similar way hexmaps do. Hexmaps normally mark them down, as well as interesting locations or findings. Notice that the image shows key points from the world, such as cities and important forest sections. Additionally, they can be used to indicate different biomes: One hex may be desert filled, but the one next to it could be a mountain region or grassland. ![]() Therefore, one can easily see how much a group of players can travel in a week’s time. Hexes do also abstract distance, usually making each hex be about 24 miles in length (one day march by foot). They do so by traversing any of its six sides. Their key factor is that by having this shape, they show in a better manner how an army unit, player character or player token can move. But what is a hex? Hexes are hexagonal shapes used in games to work as an abstract representation of terrain. Hexcrawling is the action of traveling through hexes. In order to talk about them, their good and bad aspects, and how to properly use them, let’s go back in time for a bit and explain in detail what they are. They didn’t even come from D&D but from some other game from that time. Hexcrawls are specific tools that come all the way from 1st Edition. However, what you may not know, is that they have been used for several years and people might continue to do so. These typically appear to show great maps to explore. This book continues to be the high-quality, classic reference to help pipeline engineers solve their day-to-day problems.Truth is that if you have already played videogames such as Civilization, board games like Catan, or opened one of the D&D 5e modules, you have already seen some sort of hexmap. ![]() Glossaries are added per chapter for better learning tactics, along with additional storage tank and LNG fundamentals.

Tourists flock to see the historic downtown, the city’s marina and boardwalk, the museum and the lighthouse. It has paper mills and many businesses related to tourism. Many cities on Lake Huron, such as Port Huron, have a flourishing automotive industry. Another smaller bay called Saginaw protrudes from the lake into Michigan. Manitoulin is also the largest lake island in the world. Another striking feature of this water body is the Manitoulin island that distinguishes the North Channel and Georgian Bay from the lake’s waters. The Georgian Bay protrudes from the lake into Ontario. It lies in the states of Michigan and also Ontario. The third biggest freshwater lake on the planet, Lake Huron, covers 23,007 square miles. The lake is home to many species of fish found nowhere else, such as the cichlids and the invasive Nile perch, which has driven many local species to the verge of extinction. Image for representation purpose onlyĮxplorer John Hanning Speke named it after Queen Victoria while on an expedition. It has a 7,142 km long coastline, and the lake is divided among three African nations of Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania. Lake Victoria lies in a depression and has an average water depth of 40 metres and a maximum depth of 80 to 84 metres. It is the second biggest freshwater body after North America’s Lake Superior. One of the Great African Lakes, Lake Victoria, has a surface area of about 59,947 square kilometres, making it the largest tropical lake in the world. Lake freighters and other ocean-going freighters transport these items across the lake. It is an essential link in the Great Lakes Waterway and provides a maritime route for shipping iron ore, grains and other mined materials. It became popular in the 19th century as a point of exporting manufactured goods. ![]() Its waters drain into Huron lake through the St Marys River, the St Lawrence river, and finally to the Atlantic Ocean. Lake Superior lies in central North America and lies on the Canada-US border. Its shoreline stretches to 2726 miles or 4387 km. It contains about 12,100 cubic kilometres of water. It spans 31,700 square miles and has an average depth is 147 m. Known as the largest freshwater lake in the world in terms of surface area, Lake Superior is also the third biggest lake in terms of the volume of water it contains, which is 10% of the surface freshwater across the earth. However, this article will explore some of the world’s largest freshwater bodies. There are no freshwater seas or oceans in the world. Many international organisations are working to clean freshwater sources and prevent them from being contaminated so that the world can have access to safe drinking water. The rest is trapped in ice caps and glaciers and cannot be used.įreshwater resources like glaciers, lakes, ponds, rivers, streams, groundwater and wetlands comprise less than one per cent of the world’s total surface but are home to ten per cent of animals and around 40% of the fish species.įreshwater habitats are crucial for the sustenance of life as they provide water for drinking, agriculture, generating electricity, regulating the climate etc.Įven though freshwater is quite limited and scarce, human communities have been engaged in activities that have impacted the quality of freshwater sources like streams, rivers, and certain bodies of water that have a lot of significance geographically and politically.įreshwater resources are depleting daily due to excessive development, polluted runoff, garbage, pollution from myriad sources and so on. Out of the freshwater, only 0.3% is available as liquid water. Earth has an estimated 1.386 billion km³ of water, of which 97.5% is salt water and only 2.5% is freshwater. ![]() Freshwater is a precious natural resource essential for the sustenance of humankind and animals on this planet. ![]() ![]() Get cozy and expand your home library with a large online selection of books at.
