![]() If your roster of operators doesn’t include someone with silenced weapons, or at least a gadget to support a stealthy approach, expect to go in and get out guns blazing. Each one has their quirks, perks, and nerfs, like damage output, movement speed, and how they’re affected when carrying loot, among other things. Image: Ingame Studios/505 GamesĬompounding the problems with stealth and gunplay are Crime Boss’ operators - the characters you choose to play as in each mission. And if you think you can slide between cover to get a silent takedown, just hope that the unreliable melee attack works in your favor, because as soon as you’re caught, all hell’s gonna break loose. By this point, however, I began to see how the game’s stealth mechanics weren’t quite capable enough to support the notion that you can, and should, maintain a low profile throughout. Cops guarded the obvious path forward, but an alternate path offered less resistance if you could find it. The last mission felt like it could’ve been a highlight: raiding a yacht to snatch up tons of cocaine stashed in vases and statues - for money, not to get skied up. All I could really do was hold it down at an extraction point or safe, calling upon my CS:GO and Valorant habits until it was time to move out. It’s here where Crime Boss’ encounter design started to show its limits, sending enemies in large numbers without much care for challenging you tactically. ![]() The next two missions had my team reaching a supposed objective point, realizing it was all a setup, then trying to fight our way through well-armed mobs: an armored police force and rival gang members strapped up with assault rifles popping out of vans. Clearing a bunch of generic gangsters and lugging around bags of loot while trying to survive the swarm of a SWAT team had its thrills, but it underscored the floaty gunplay when trying to thin out enemies to make our escape. It was an opportunity for a stealthy approach, but devolved into crouch-walking past guards in plain sight to start a shootout from the backdoor. The next was an assault on a fortified warehouse, and four of us had to loot it for all its worth. The target himself is a bullet sponge who I chased into a nearby apartment complex before wearing him down and getting the kill - standard shooter stuff. Of course, it’s heavily guarded and it turns into a shootout. My first mission started on a Miami-esque beachfront where my team of four had to eliminate a gang leader who’s posted up in a restaurant. The game’s shallow mission design leaves much to be desired, and its foundational aspects - gunplay, encounters, and stealth - aren’t impressive enough to carry the weight. After playing through five separate missions in the “Urban Legends” mode, I came away finding it tough to conjure up enthusiasm for the “organized crime” shooter. I was able to get hands on with a little over an hour of Crime Boss, the four-player co-op first-person shooter that flexes its cast of Hollywood stars from yesteryear. But adapting to the situation, and making the best of a mess, is what gives games like Grand Theft Auto Online or Payday 2 their emergent thrills - especially when you’re able to secure the bag.Ĭrime Boss: Rockay City from upstart developer Ingame Studios tries to emulate those moments with the vibe of a ’90s action flick, but the game itself is an example of an operation going south with little hope coming out of the other end with the bag. No matter how carefully you draw it up on the board, once an operation starts playing out, you can count on it going south. ![]()

If your media player can handle H.265 video, there’s a pretty good chance it will play 10-Bit video as well. 10-Bit allows for a much wider range of available colours, and gives a cleaner encode with less artefacts. Regardless of your source file, these settings will give you a nicely combed progressive file. Now move on to “Filters”ĭefault settings here are also correct. Leave Cropping set to Automatic, Anamorphic set to Automatic, and Fill set to None. Just be sure to select either 576p or 480p from the resolution limit, depending on your source file dimensions. Then go on to the “Dimensions” tabĮverything should be ok here by default. ![]() There is not much to do in this tab, just make sure the format is set to MKV and Passthru Common Metadata is unchecked. You should find yourself on the “Source” tab. Now we have identified what kind of video our source file is, it’s time to open handbrake and drop it in. If your DVD is 576 lines high, you will see something like below: If your DVD is 480 lines high, you will see something like 720*480 in the first video streams details. Thankfully there is a great free tool called Mediainfo you can use to find out what you have. Before we start encoding we need to identify which one your source file is. MY SOURCE FILE – DVD Video from different countries generally comes in two different sizes, 480 pixels high and 576 pixels high.

But the best golf cart battery type on the market by far are Lithium Golf Cart Batteries. When it comes to lead-acid batteries, Trojan golf cart batteries are the industry leader. To learn more about this amazing new LifePO4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate) battery technology, read our article: Why Lithium Golf Cart Batteries are the FUTURE. Lithium batteries for golf carts last 3x - 5x as long as traditional lead-acid batteries, and can fully charge up in as little as 2-3 hours (compared to 8 hours with traditional golf cart batteries). We started selling Lithium Golf Cart Batteries before anyone else (back in 2019), because we always stay on top of the latest industry data here at the GCTS. So if your batteries are older than 6 years old, chances are they may have just died on you or you are beginning to see the signs they're not at "peak" performance. ![]() In order for your golf cart to operate efficiently and safely, you need to have strong and healthy batteries! Traditional lead-acid golf cart batteries have a useful life of roughly 6 years. Lithium batteries work to provide the same consistent power stream to your golf cart, but create power due much more efficiently (like your cell phone's battery does). All golf cart battery types are designed to provide a steady, consistent stream of power to your cart over a longer period of time (typically 8 to 10 hours per charge).Īs battery technology has progressed so much over the past 10 years, more golf cart manufacturers and aftermarket battery providers have recently turned to using lithium batteries for golf carts. Unlike car batteries, which are designed to provide a burst of power just to start the engine, golf cart batteries need to keep your cart moving the entire time you use it. Historically, most golf carts have uses lead-acid chemistry batteries which have a high energy density, allowing them to store a large amount of energy in a relatively small space. Golf cart batteries are deep-cycle batteries designed to provide sustained power to electric golf carts.

![]() ![]() Any advice will be appreciated, thanking you. But I use the Mac Mini as a media center and the WiFi can be unreliable so I would really like to sort out this ethernet issue. Crazy Optimum.įortunately, I have the WiFi working so it isn't the be all end all.

Another feature worth noting is the easy podcast management. The app keeps a tab on your interest and offers recommendations accordingly so you can quickly access the sort of podcasts that appeal to your taste. In terms of personalized recommendations, Overcast is quite similar to Pocket Casts.
