Random Images/Pictures (#01)

Right now I’m taking a break from trying to write how to get hard badge for now and do some random thing like this. Here a few image using two different cameras. Both are a point & shoot cameras but one is old and one is not so old. These pictures was taken around 4:00 pm, inside, on 5/30/14; all picture is done on automate. Pic 1 is done normal while Pic 2 is zoom. And if you were wondering, that a real "Barn Owl"

• Camera 1: Fujifilm FinePix A330 [Year release: 2004? (I’m not sure)](Note: that the maximum zoom it can do)

• Camera 2: Nikon CoolPix L620 [Year release: 2013] (Note: that not the maximum zoom but if I zoom any more, it make too much noise in the picture.  

(1) FinePix A330 (normal)

(2) FinePix A330 (Zoom - max)

(2) CoolPix L620 (Zoom)

(1) CoolPix L620 (normal)

Here another pictures (same location) using a different point and shoot camera. Picture taken on 5/31/14 around 4:00 PM. Don’t remember if it was on automate or manual, most likely it was on manual because the image blur and usually my hand shake and blur the image when it taken. Most likely.

• Camera 3: FujiFilm FinePix F30 [Year release: 2006? (I’m not sure)](Note: that the maximum zoom it can do

Kongregate's Hard Badge Tips (#01)

There some badges I got by walkthrough, those I would not state. The other I would state how I got it using my method. 

Going down the list by easiest earn on the “hard” on my list but not counting those with walkthrough:

• Kingdom Rush:  no shame on getting the badge on any setting even if it on the easiest. Upgrade your stuff to the max if you can. That what I did. There 2 hard badge, i talking about the one where you just finish the game. 

• Pandemic 2: This is more on Luck then skill base, read the comment and you will see. Here my record for this game alone. 25-30 times, 2 win (kill off the world), 3 times I succeed in infecting Madagascar. The rest fail if you don’t get Madagascar. You have to try until you get Madagascar. Here the thing I found interesting, if I start from Greenland, New Zealand, or Australia; I have a high chance of getting Madagascar.

• Music Catch 1 & 2: Read the top comment and you will get it. The Rule is to be patience.

• Nano War: A bit of warning, it will lag once the screen is fill with your unit in later level. It doesn’t lag if it just the computer (evil). The way to win is speed and quantity. Here some hint and tip. Attack the small neutral one 1^st if it near. Let the enemy attack big neutral one until it weak enough for you to take it or ignore that and attack directly at the biggest or second biggest number of enemy the enemy control; this only work the best near the start of the level. Attack in masses, even if the attack is one attack pt; Think swarm of bees or ants.

• The Peacekeeper: Level 30 wave go like this; normal enemy, 1 boss with few normal, then finally 3 boss. The one you have to watch out for is the 1 boss part. Here how it goes; normal enemy you (gamer) can probably deal with them normally if you made to level 30 already, if you uses heal, grenade, or emp during the normal enemy save some as in not killing them so your ability reload, you need them for the 1 boss battles. That one boss throw axes into your pit and it will hit you one-way or another by you hitting it (you moving) or it hitting you. So the start of the battle you need emp him and shoot like there no tomorrow. When your health is half, heal. Nade when you can and shoot that sob down. When 3 boss show up, you need to strategize how to do it, but thank god all three show because that limit their attack ability on the axe boss. Here the list on who to take out first; Axe, rocket , and the shotgun. Uses your heal, nade, and emp smartly.

Kongregate’s Game “Hard” Badge, pre-explain

Kongregate is an online game website that have web-site badge for certain and selected game, you must have a Kongregate account to keep the badge for your own record and to brag about it. Any who, I play there when I can and the “hard” badge I earned, I’m going to explain a few of them how to get them on the next post.

As to this date [4/15/14], I have earned 58 [Hard] badges. Of them some was easy, while other took some time, while other require outside source for help. You can say 80% was solely done with no help, 10% require me to look at walkthrough, while the last 10% I didn’t even try and just look at walkthrough. Here the quickly advises for any games with Badges.

• Always read the Top Comment, there always some help hints, advises, or clues that will come later in the game

• There no shame in looking for or watching a Walkthrough.

Anyway I’m only going list the badge that any player can get with a minimum good skill, and explain how to get it. 

Battlefield 2 (Game) Story

This is a Battlefield 2 story, basically a gameplay from one of my personal gameplay experiences which unluckily it was not recorded on battle record nor did I recorded it live. Out of all the many hours I play, this is the few that I remember that worth remembering. If I were to give it a title it would be called “Last Man on the Team”. I don’t remember what happen most of the game but I remember the part what I need to remember. Long story short, I was the last player on our team while the other team just captures the last capture point and kills off my team that was defending it. They can’t respawn because I’m just a team member in my squad and not the leader. Long story short, I capture a point and all my dead teammate finally respawn. We lost anyway and we were losing in the first place. 

Map: Operation Blue Pearl

64 Player Setting Map

Actually number of player at that time: around 12-18, which mean around 6 to 8 player on both team.

I was on the Chinese Team, because if I were on the American side, we will still have a spawn point from the uncapturable American starting base. Anyway look at the picture I uploaded and that how the situation look from what I remembers, well to point out the sceenshot is the start of the game look not the situation I’m talking about but you get it, by me photoshoping the area in the image.
