Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands is a tactical shooter video game developed by Ubisoft Paris and published by Ubisoft. It was released worldwide on March 7, 2017, for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, as the tenth installment in the Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon franchise and is the first game in the Ghost Recon series to feature an open world environment. The game moves away from the futuristic setting introduced in Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter and instead feature a setting similar to the original Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon. Ubisoft described it as one of the biggest open world games that they have published, with the game world including a wide variety of environments such as mountains, forests, deserts, and salt flats. Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands is a tactical shooter game set in an open world environment and played from a third-person perspective with an optional first person view for gun aiming. Players play as members of the Delta Company, First Battalion, 5th Special Forces Group, also known as "Ghosts", a fictional elite special operations unit of the United States Army under the Joint Special Operations Command. It does not feature the futuristic setting used in Advanced Warfighter and Future Soldier, but instead adopts a modern-day setting, similar to the original Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon. As a result, the equipment featured in the game is based on weapons and gear commonly used by military forces around the world. However, it features some original equipment, such as drones that can be used to tag enemies and show objectives. These drones have limited abilities until upgraded. The game is the first entry to feature an open world environment, which consists of nine different types of terrain, such as: mountains, forests, desert, salt flats, and also introduces a dynamic weather system as well as a day-night cycle. Completing missions during day-time allows players to spot enemies easily, while completing missions at night grants players a tactical advantage, as the night offers players better concealment and easier infiltration due to some guardsmen being asleep. Players are tasked with making observations before carrying out missions. A variety of vehicles, such as dirt bikes, helicopters and dune buggies are featured in the game. Unlike its predecessors, Wildlands features several side-missions. When not completing missions, players can interact, and build friendly or hostile relationships with other non-playable characters, such as the citizens, officials or the rebels of the world. These interactions require strategy, as interactions will bring consequences and impact the game's world, and change how players can achieve their objectives.
When completing missions, players can reach the location where the mission starts through a variety of ways. Players can parachute from a helicopter, walk overland, or drive towards their objectives. Players are allowed to use multiple ways to complete objectives, such as utilizing stealth, melee combat, or using long-ranged or short-ranged weapons provided in the game. The game also features outposts that can be taken down by players. Players can grab enemies at close range with one hand for defense as human shields, while using the other hand to shoot. It features cooperative multiplayer mode, in which players can be joined by up to three other players to explore the game's world and to complete campaign missions. The game can also be played solo, in which the player will be accompanied by three AI teammates, which the player can give orders to. A competitive multiplayer mode has been released as part of a free update on October 10, 2017. It features an elimination type of game mode in a timed 4v4 match with revives. Players can level up through multiplayer gameplay which enables them to improve the different class of characters available. Each of the 21 areas on the map is controlled by a buchon, who is also associated with one of four divisions of the cartel's operations: Influence, Security, Production and Smuggling. Clearing missions in an area and collecting key intel unlocks missions where players can target a buchon and eliminate him or her by killing or capturing the target (with some exceptions). Eliminating enough buchones in an operations division allows players to target that division's underboss, and eliminating that underboss and all of the buchones in an operations division leaves the division head vulnerable. Capturing this division head cripples and destabilizes the division and makes the cartel boss more vulnerable. After going through this game for like 4 hours, I can already tell that I am going to enjoy playing it. A big thank you to Ubisoft for this open world game, we hope to see more improvement in years to come. Thank you for reading on till next time , bye for now.

BUYERS GUIDE BMW X3
Sports Activity Vehicle®
At home on any range. Driving a rough road – or off-road – won’t slow you down. The all-new BMW X3features 8 inches of ground clearance for navigating conditions from sand to snow, with plenty of margin for steep sections. Available suspension options, including Adaptive M Sport suspension for the X3 M40i, also ensures comfort and control when you’re speeding down a straightaway.
POWER PERFORMER. Outpace predecessors. The latest BMW TwinPower Turbo 2.0-liter 4-cylinder inline engine provides a power boost and faster acceleration to the X3 xDrive30i. And a fine-tuned 3.0-liter M Performance TwinPower Turbo 6-cylinder inline engine propels the X3 M40i to the top of its model range, with a best-in-segment 0-60 mph time of 4.6 seconds.
HIGH CAPACITY. Pack for any destination. The all-new BMW X3 can accommodate everything your adventure requires. Cargo storage capacity reaches an impressive 62.7 cubic feet thanks to split fold-down rear seats. And when you really need to haul, the optional factory-installed trailer hitch – the first ever available in a BMW SAV® – is ready for use with a broad range of BMW Accessories.
iDrive 6.0 Navigate naturally. The intuitive interface of the latest iDrive includes natural language understanding, so you can simply say what you want to do – from finding a destination to choosing a radio station – and let your BMW do the rest.
INTELLIGENT CONNECTIONS. A seamless interface. The optional Navigation system, featuring the latest version of iDrive, puts a driver’s world at your fingertips with an intuitive interface that responds to touch, Intelligent Voice Control, or optional Gesture Control.

PASSION FOR PERFORMANCE. Drive free. Every all-new BMW X3 comes with an 8-speed Steptronic Sport Automatic Transmission with shift paddles, tuned specifically to match the engine’s performance characteristics.

“THOUGH I FLY THROUGH THE AIRSPACE OF THE SHADOWS OF MY ENEMIES; I FEAR NO HARM FOR I AM 90,000FT IN THE AIR INSIDE AN XA 20 RAZORBACK JET AND AM STILL GOING HIGHER…” PRINCE MAX DICKSON
Every star you see in the night sky is bigger and brighter than our sun. Of the 5,000 or so stars brighter than magnitude 6, only a handful of very faint stars are approximately the same size and brightness of our sun and the rest are all bigger and brighter. Of the 500 or so that are brighter than 4th magnitude (which includes essentially every star visible to the unaided eye from a urban location), all are intrinsically bigger and brighter than our sun, many by a large percentage. Of the brightest 50 stars visible to the human eye from Earth, the least intrinsically bright is Alpha Centauri, which is still more than 1.5 times more luminous than our sun, and cannot be easily seen from most of the Northern Hemisphere.
Stars don’t twinkle. Stars appear to twinkle (“scintillate”), especially when they are near the horizon. One star, Sirius, twinkles, sparkles and flashes so much some times that people actually report it as a UFO. But in fact, the twinkling is not a property of the stars, but of Earth’s turbulent atmosphere. As the light from a star passes through the atmosphere, especially when the star appears near the horizon, it must pass through many layers of often rapidly differing density. This has the effect of deflecting the light slightly as it were a ball in a pinball machine. The light eventually gets to your eyes, but every deflection causes it to change slightly in color and intensity. The result is “twinkling.” Above the Earth’s atmosphere, stars do not twinkle.
Our sun is a dwarf star. We are accustomed to think of the sun as a “normal” star, and in many respects, it is. But did you know that it is a “dwarf” star? You may have heard of a “white dwarf,” but that is not a regular star at all, but the corpse of a dead star. Technically, as far as “normal” stars go (that is, astronomical objects that produce their own energy through sustained and stable hydrogen fusion), there are only “dwarfs,” “giants” and “supergiants.” The giants and supergiants represent the terminal (old age) stages of stars, but the vast majority of stars, those in the long, mature stage of evolution (Main Sequence) are all called “dwarfs.” There is quite a bit of range in size here, but they are all much smaller than the giants and supergiants. So technically, the sun is a dwarf star, sometimes called “Yellow Dwarf” in contradiction to the entry above!
