Favorite Batman Story Tournament - Round 3

Pitting two classics against one another in this matchup! Y'all know the drill by now: fan propaganda below, but feel free to add on more!

Batman: A Lonely Place of Dying

This is a Batman story, a Nightwing story, a Robin origin story, and the foundation of the Batfam storytelling that defines the 90's. It's about grief and legacy and the desire to help and save people, the most important themes of Batman. It's the story that saved the soul of Batman after the death of Jason Todd threatened to send him into a grimdark misery spiral, and reaffirmed the need for hope and teamwork in Batman stories.

Batman (1940) #1

You might be thinking that I put this solely because it's Batman #1- which is partially true, but it also manages to be completely fucking iconic. Batman 1 is simply one of the funniest and most insane Batman stories I've ever read. It's split up into 4 stories of about 13 pages each, and each one hits it out of the park. Number 1 is the Joker's first appearance, and he kills a bunch of people in bizarre and over-the-top clever ways while the police are like "we're sure we'll get him this time". Golden Age Joker was the first incarnation of Joker I actually liked, I love that guy. Number 2 is Hugo Strange making a bunch of people into mutant monsters to commit crimes for him, and Batman shows that he is definitely living in 1940 before the editors decided to pump the brakes because he gives approximately no fucks about anything. He guns multiple people down from the Batplane. He shoots a guy off a building. He hangs a guy from a rope dangling from the Batplane. I think he kills 5 people in this one story. Number 3 is the first appearance of Catwoman, featuring Bruce and Dick trying to stop a succession of robberies on a boat, and there's a 2 page side diversion where Bruce takes all of the robbers' guns and lets Dick fight them solo and then looks directly into the camera to be like, "Wow, looks like criminals are cowards without their guns!! That's why being a criminal is bad and you definitely shouldn't do it, right kids?!" One of the first things Batman ever says to Catwoman is "quiet or papa spank", information I inflicted on all of my friends at the earliest opportunity. Then in number 4 Joker breaks out of prison and comes back and pioneers even more insane murder methods, before completely randomly accidentally stabbing himself in the chest and dying while fighting with Batman (who's just like "lol get rekt"). Joker was actually supposed to die and stay dead, but editor Whitney Ellsworth overruled it at the last minute and threw in 1 panel of a doctor being like "wait this guy's actually alive!!", thus setting up the next 80 years of Joker-filled plotlines. Do I think Batman 1 is objectively good, per se? Maybe not. However I think it's both entertaining and hilarious and the groundwork for so much that comes after, and we should remember our roots.

Hey talk to me about your top three favourite kdrama women. What makes them special? What's a fic you would like to write about any one of them?

Mystery anon! :D What a lovely ask. 

I’m going to cheat a bit and divide my answer into characters I loved a lot, but do not want to write fic about, because I think the canon gives me what I need; and characters that I loved a lot but NEED TO BE RESCUED ZOMG.  (My fic writing impulses are 50% spite and 50% fix-it )

Caveat being that I’ve still watched only maybe a dozen kdramas, so I’m pretty limited in my knowledge!

Characters that I love a lot, but have very zero fic impulses toward:

Han Yeo-jin from Stranger/Secret Forest: What a delight! What an iconique character! Is there anyone like her? NO. LSY-nim gives us a delightfully complex character, and Bae Doona knocks it out of the park in every single scene, so I’m just happy to be along for the ride. I think what makes Yeo-jin special for me is the intrinsic place of empathy that she operates from.  I think “righteous” is a word that often comes with negative connotations (self-righteous, for eg), but I do think she’s one of the most righteous-in-the-good-way characters I’ve watched in kdrama or any drama. I’m tired of stories that portray goodness as “boring” , as unworthy of narrative breadth or depth, and I love that Han Yeo-jin comes to us like a breath of fresh air in our particular dystopian narratives hellscape. She’s good, but never naive. She’s righteous but never cruel in her moral certainties.  I think that LSY nim, in the second season especially, gave Yeo-jin the kind of arc that character deserved when she’s forced to really dig deep into herself to figure out how she’s going to live in the world in the face of a deeply cutting, deeply personal disillusionment, and I’m really hoping for an S3 to see how that plays out further. 

Goo Hae-ryung from Rookie Historian: Ok, I will admit this may be rose tinted glasses view due to this show being my gateway drug into kdrama, but c’mon! She’s a reader! and a Thinker! And loves her wine! She’s plucky! She’s cute! She’s got a wry sense of humour! She’s got principles! She’s got a solid common sense to her that somehow doesn’t get in the way of her dreaming BIG! Oh dear, doesn’t she sound like the Mary-est of Mary Sues? Good for her.gif,  I say! Anyways, Shin Se-kyung is unutterably charming in this (AS IN EVERY SHOW OMG GIRL) and I just have a huge fondness for free-spirited heroines who get to tramp through the narrative changing the world as they do! 

Lee Ji-an from My Ahjussi: I’ve never had my heart broken more OR restored by any single character. IU is *phenomenal * in this, I think she really stepped up to what the script demanded from her. Ji-an’s weariness, her fear and vulnerability, her prickliness, her anger and her bitterness, and how, despite everything, she fights : GOD. Just. Again, what I love about the writing in this show is that it’s deeply empathetic without being cloyingly sentimental. I think a less, hmm, imaginative writer/PD might have focused on the Lee Ji-an the victim, and while the show definitely tells you in no uncertain terms that she is one,  of both circumstances and a cruel society, I think it refuses to take away her agency over her own life.(Lee Ji-an when we meet her is too busy hanging onto life by tooth and claw to indulge in self-pity, but we also see the toll it takes on her not to be able to say “this is too heavy a burden for me to carry myself and it isn’t my fault”; the show I think approaches Dong-hoon from the opposite side- his emotional isolation is partly a result of his own choices, but he doesn’t see it yet, and so his journey is also about letting people in and sharing the burden, but also recovering his own agency over his life. It’s an interestingly gender-bent arc, which is one of the things I love about this show. )

Ok, can I please add one more?

Hwang Han-joo from Melo is my Nature: She just felt SO real to me. She’s someone who doesn’t have the spectacular brilliance of either Jin-joo or Eun-jung, and struggles with accepting her limitations but not allowing herself to be defeated by them? I love her struggles as a mother, as a working woman in a sexist industry, a woman who’s perhaps having to rethink and reimagine what she wants from romance. I love that she’s a little silly, a lot kind, and an optimist, and just. I just think she’s the bravest of the three, tbh, and I LOVE HER AND I WOULD WATCH A SPIN OFF ABOUT JUST HER (i shouldn’t have faves among the three i know, BUT I DO, IT’S HER, IT’S HER.)

Ok! On to the next section! And I’m going to cheat again because I can’t stop at three. SORRY. NOT SORRY. 

Characters I love and SHOULD write fic for if I weren’t such a tired and lazy bunny:  

Song Sa-hui from Rookie Historian: Oh, girl, girl, GIRL. I love how she fights to snatch her freedom from the jaws of the patriarchy. I love that she unapologetically centers herself while doing that, because she knows that nobody else will.  I love that she’s prickly and calculating. I love that she’s smart and knowledgeable. I am SO HAPPY that she got to carve out a little bit of freedom for herself, even if it also is exile to some degree. She *should * be Emperor Jin’s Prime Minister and steering the ship of state, while also carrying on a tumultous affair with Queen Min Woo-hee, while ALSO commiserating with Emperor Jin about his boyfriend Historian Min Woo-won’s regrettable tendency towards Principles (TM) and masochism-but-not-in-the-fun-way. (This takes up much of his time which is why Song Sa-hui is running the country, of course. It works out well for all concerned, well, except her dad, of course.)

Song Ga-gyeong from Search:WWW: What’s NOT to love about our brilliant, beautiful, emotionally tortured gay icon? Nothing, absolutely nothing. I loved how the show allowed her to be flawed and make bad decisions, and then allowed her to make better decisions and regain control of her life. What I do need to do, of course, is see the CANON LOVE STORY between her and Cha Hyeon through to the end. It must, of course, include at least one baseball game, a lot of tequila and messy beach kisses. 

Oh Ji-hwa from Beyond Evil: Oh boy, this year’s runaway hit cleared the extremely low bar for standard crime/ thriller shows by leaving more than one of its female characters breathing and with all limbs intact, and got called feminist for it BUT it didn’t do justice to any of them in any meaningful way and that never hurt more than in the way they sidelined Kim Shin-rok’s talent by not giving Oh Ji-hwa anything much to do. She’s a tough as nails cop, a loving sister, a devoted but unsentimental friend-and by rights SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE HEROINE OF THIS SHOW. My secret fic fantasy is to rewrite the show entirely by making her , and the two other female characters in non-antagonist roles- Yoo Jae-yi and Im Sun-nyeo- as the central characters, as they investigate a serial killer who targets women.  It’s the only acceptable version of this done-to-death (ha!) genre, I have no idea what the Baeksang jury and tumblr fandom is smoking when they hype the show so much, I want none of it. 

Jung Sun-ah from The Devil Judge: I love her rage, her spite, her passionate defense of women, her style, her sexiness, her rage, her rage, her brilliance, her tenaciousness, her smartness, her clothes, her refusal to hate herself for everything she is and chooses to be, her ambition, her comfort wielding power, her EVERYTHING. Dead, her? NOT IF I HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY ABOUT IT. Here’s what *really * happened at the end of canon- she gets out of the building by planting that lady-like but still deadly gun against Kang Yo-han’s temple and making him lead her through his own “secret escape route” or whatever the fuck it was the show wanted us to believe. From there on out, it’s all sunshine and beaches, and scheming and waiting for the right moment to strike again-though of course, this time around, she also has to reckon with vigilant, tenacious cop Soo-hyun -another character who REALLY didn’t die for manpain reasons and had the good sense to leave her gay best friend to follow his psychopath boyfriend to Switzerland or wherever it is that star crossed lovers in kdrama land meet up on the regs these days- anyways, Soo-hyun and her are in this catch-me-if-you-can epic transnational honest and cute cop-and-beautiful sexy villain chase and yes, they WILL kiss (and more) AND IT WILL BE GLORIOUS. 

*whew *

Thanks for coming to my TEDTalk.

Tagging Challenge

So I’ve been tagged by my lovely friend @gelreads​ <3

The challenge is to post 5 favorite actors and actresses from dramas. You can choose from any dramas, not just thai dramas like my list :)

Took me a while but here they are:

Top 5 Actors

1. Tommy Sittichok

I know I only seen him in Why R U series but he already have my heart. His good looks and charm just got me snatched. Aside from he’s godly adorableness, he’s acting is on point. He’s great playing this adorable, gay panicking and clumsy Zon. In real life, he’s still adorable but more mature and bad-ass (he served in the military).

Notable Series/Film I know he is in : Why R U as Zon  (hoping he will have more projects w/Jimmy )

2. Fluke Pongsatorn

This actor is one of the best BL actors of his time. A really versatile actor. He can play comedic, cute, dramatic, serious and even very mature roles. I love him best as Pharm. He was just so adorable and whenever he cried, I cried with him

Notable Series/Film I know he is in:

1.  Until We Meet Again- Pharm

2. My Bromance the Movie - Bank

3. Red Wine in the Dark Night (R-rated) - Wine

3.  Gun Attaphan

Another actor that really pulled my heartstrings. He is such a great actor. He’s probably the best actor in GMMTV ( just my opinion). He’s also a very versatile actor. I love him most as Third because he’s just so lovable yet so savage at the same time. However, his acting really shined through in his role as Punn in the Gifted because his character is very complicated and multilayered.

Notable Series/Film I know he is in: 

1. Theory of Love - Third

2. Puppy Honey - Rome

3. The Gifted - Punn

4. The Blue Hour (i know he is in it but I haven’t completely watched it)

4. Gong Yoo

Since the challenge said any drama, I’m going to Kdramaland a bit. He is one of the best actors in Korea. My heart swooned when he played as Choi Han Kyul in Coffee Prince. My heart fell in love when as he played as Kim Shin in Goblin. My heart broke when he played as Seok-woo in Train to Busan. Such a great actor

Notable Series/Film I know he is in:

1. Coffee Prince - Choi Han Kyul

2. Goblin - Kim Shin

3. Train to Busan - Seok-woo

5. Ohm Pawat

I just love this pup okay! He’s adorable! When he smiles, I smile! When he cries, I will definitely cry! 

Notable Series/Film I know he is in: 1. Make It Right Season 1 and 2 -Frame

2. He’s Coming To Me - Thun

3. War of High School - Pound

Top Five Actresses

1. Park Min-young

I love her so so much She’s beautiful and I love her roles. She’s such an amazing actress. I love her best in What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim when she played as Kim Mi-so  because she’s just an icon of women independence and femininity

Notable Series/Film I know she is in:

1. Sunkyunkwan Scandal - Kim Yoon-shik/Kim Yoon-hee

2. What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim - Kim Mi-so

3. Her Private Life- - Sung Deok Mi

2. Yoo In-na

This actress is just amazing. She can play a supporting character and still root for her. She can be the chic and sassy lady or the bubbly actress. The duality is awesome

Notable Series/Film I know she is in:

1. Secret Garden - Im Ah- young

2. My Love from the Star- Yoo Se Mi

2. Goblin- Sunny

3. Touch Your Heart- Oh Jin-shim

3. Ella Chen

Ok this one is pretty old and isn’t very active anymore but I still love her anyway. She has a very unique charm because of her androgynous look. She’s awesome when she does her dramatic scenes and very cute when she’s in a romcom.

Notable Series/Film I know she is in:

1. Hana Kimi - Lu Rui Xi

2. The Rose - Zheng Bai He

3. Down With Love- Yang Guo

4. Song  Ji Hyo

Technically she is an actress  who did act in dramas so she counts but I love her because of Running Man. She is the Ace and also known as Mong (Blank) Ji because she looks out of it sometimes. I just love her okay. 

5. Gong Hyo Jin

The queen of romcoms. I just love her. She’s just so natural. 

Notable Series/Film I know she is in:

1. Master’s Sun - Tae Gong Shil

2. The Greatest Love - Gu Ae Jung

loved this drama

I finished watching the K-drama Night Light/White Nights (it’s on Netflix) and like??? it was amazing. It’s about this boss ass female CEO (Seo Yi-kyung) who finesses a bunch of old men out of their money and positions of power with her loyal ride or die team and her new found bae (Lee Se-jin) who’s a poor but incredibly wise girl that Boss CEO literally just sees at a party wearing a nice dress and decides she likes her enough to teach her all about business and money and omg these two....I have never seen so much romantic tension between 2 ppl in my life. Don’t misunderstand however, they never like hug or anything like that,  but on several occasions declare they LIKE LIKE LIKE each other by literally doing the most intimate gestures for one another (I’m talking life risking stuff and oh my gosh so many iconic lines). Even the behind the scenes production videos ship them. OK now The Dude (Park Gun-woo), he’s Boss CEO’s old flame, but they too never did anythinggg like typically romantic either, because it’s just not in Boss CEO’s personality to like people like that (she’s hard af, money and power are her motivations, bodalk yellow is her theme song), but both him and Poor Wise Girl are into Boss CEO and equally have their relationships with her represented. They both like her so much that they try to take her down because her dreams of money and power are turning her into a bad person. Anyways, there’s lots of scheming and scamming and betrayal and you get to watch each of them help each other grow as people and you get to see a bunch of dusty and corrupt old men get what’s coming to them. There’s also some cute friendships between side characters. A second season of this drama would be blessed.

Joseph Burnett: 2016 in review

2016, you shan’t be missed. Thus far, most year-end round-ups outside of Breitbart and whatever equivalent we have for Der Stürmer these days (er, Breitbart?) have lamented the hideous direction the world has taken over the last 12 months. They’ve reeled off a list of lost artistic heroes that suggests whomever has taken up the job of ferrying the dead over the Styx once failed an audition to be harpist for Zeus and has a Manson-esque grudge against the talented as a result. So, whilst I can’t not mention the trauma of losing Bowie, Prince, Pauline Oliveros, two-thirds of ELP, Victoria Wood, Alan Rickman, Leonard Cohen, Andrzej Wajda, Dale Griffin of Mott the Hoople and my personal most harrowing Tony Conrad, like the shameful Brexit vote and baffling Trump triumph, I’d rather not dwell on these matters. The three letters ���R.I.P.” convey more than I ever could. And I mean “R.I.P. humanity,” not just those individuals mentioned above. Actually, fuck you, 2016.  

So yeah, war, a refugee crisis, prejudice, nationalism and dead artists dominated 2016, but there was music too, and some of it was outstanding (as was a film that for me was the most important made in the UK for over a decade: I, Daniel Blake). Sadly, two stand-out albums from 2016 came from artists who departed this mortal coil not long afterwards: David Bowie’s Blackstar and Pauline Oliveros’ duo album with another casualty of 2016, Connie Crothers, First Meeting Still Sounding. The latter was only released as a tribute to pianist Crothers and tragically became one for Oliveros as well. It’s a wondrous meeting of two expansive and forward-thinking talents and a fitting farewell from both. As, in a rather different way, was Blackstar. I only heard the album after David Bowie had joined the ever-growing list of departed icons, so it seems impossible to divorce it from his passing, especially the wonderful “Lazarus.” But in addition being a farewell from an artist who had a profound impact on my life, it’s his most solid and musically coherent album in about two decades, benefitting notably from a gorgeous jazz-inflected production. An additional shout out must go to Leonard Cohen’s You Want it Darker, a bleak, introspective collection of songs that also sees an artist in the twilight of his existence reflecting on that stark reality.  

The legendary ECM Records had something of a bumper year to please admirers of their particular stylistic production and jazz fans as a whole. Wadada Leo Smith —whose colossal America’s National Parks was another highlight— teamed up with Vijay Iyer for the quietly spectacular A Cosmic Rhythm with Every Stroke, Golfam Khayam and Mona Matbou Riahi produced an undoubted masterpiece in Narrante, and Jack deJohnette bridged past and present on his delightful In Movement to deliver an achingly poignant reflection on the travails of African-Americans as they face racism and policemen’s guns. Special mention also to Theo Bleckmann, Carla Bley, Wolfert Brederode, Tigran Hamasyan and Ches Smith for their own masterful releases on ECM. Sarathy Korwar produced an intriguing post-jazz exercise in the form of Day to Day on NinjaTune, and beyond the specific realm of jazz the field of experimental music continues to throw up exciting and challenging works even in these straightened times, with composer Ben Johnston, Graham Lambkin, Cindytalk, Rhodri Davies and Richard Dawson’s Hen Ogledd and Oren Ambarchi all making it into my top 30 list. And I can’t not mention the wondrous drone works of Catherine Christer Hennix (both archival and new), Yves Tumor’s fractured pop or Gary Mundy’s expansively beautiful noise experiments in his solo incarnation as Kleistwahr.   

But, and this is purely on a personal level, electronic music delivered the most consistently exciting music of the year. In the UK, producers continue to probe where we go after dubstep and its quasi-punk levelling of form, something most notable in Kuedo’s Slow Knife, which may just have provided us with a clear run into the future. Meanwhile, many a British producer continued to delve into the hidden interstices of reality, as evidenced by Demdike Stare’s weird meshing of harsh techno and dub, the amalgamation of dark poetry and brittle electronica of eMMplekz, Pye Corner Audio’s horror-sci-fi dance and the sepulchral ambient techno of Andy Stott. And what to make of Dean Blunt’s sardonic take on Brexit Britain as Babyfather? His oblique but piercing political stance found an echo across the pond with Fatima Al Qadiri’s Brute, and even — away from electronica per se — Frank Ocean’s magnificent follow up to Color Orange, Blonde. But it’s impossible to look past Grumbling Fur and Furfour as the most perfect album of the year. Going beyond the promise of their past releases, Daniel O’Sullivan and Alexander Tucker elevated pop song into the most enthralling medium of expressing both joy and mystery, transcending dance, avant-garde, folk and hauntology in the process.  

It’s perhaps not surprising that in this fractured world we find comfort in the folk expressions of specific locations. The aforementioned Golfam Khayam and Mona Matbou Riahi took the exotic folk of their native Iran and spliced it with European avant-garde, whilst Aşıq Nargilə delivered an intoxicating aperçu of Georgian and Azeri troubadour music with a live set from London’s Café Oto, superbly preserved on vinyl by the diligent peeps of the venue themselves. Closer to home (well mine), Laura Cannell continues to sketch and sublimate the landscapes of England’s East Anglia via her recorders and fiddle. Also plundering and resurrecting the traditions of the UK’s hidden reverse is the Folklore Tapes label, a wonderful combination of record company and research project whose founders Ian Humberstone and David Chatton Barker have dedicated the last five or so years to resurrecting forgotten traditions of the land of my birth, in musical form. In 2016, two reissues of their Devon series (for those unfamiliar with UK geography, Devon is one of our wildest and most historically deep counties) and a new set of music inspired by the Black Dog mythology of England, crystallized Folklore Tapes as a singularly important, even crucial, vehicle for the preservation of some of the most fragile collective memories in Britain.  

If 2016 severed us so painfully from so many greats, I want to end by saluting two veterans who refuse to give up the ghost. Neil Young has slipped down the ranks of the intelligentsia’s appraisals when it comes to singer-songwriters, I think because he has traded in abstraction for visceral, sometimes slap-dashed and clumsy, invective. But fuck it, I wish more of our younger artists had his passion and anger, because we need it more than ever. Peace Trail is not some grand return to seventies form, but it’s important, often beautiful, and contains one of his best songs in a while in the title track. I’m glad he’s still out there. More impressive and welcome perhaps, however, was the return of Shirley Collins after a studio silence of no less than 38 years. At 81, her voice is more frail and strained than in her Love, Death and the Lady heyday, but rather than being a weakness, it only adds to the spectral beauty and gravitas of Lodestar. In such turbulent times, knowing Shirley Collins is out there, producing such incredible music and shining through the night with her humanity, is a real comfort.

 So yeah, fuck 2016 and fingers crossed 2017 won’t be such a bummer. Now forgive me whilst I reach for my copies of Lodestar and Furfour and hope that when I open my eyes the world will be gone...

Fortnite: Chapter Two - Tips & Tricks for Mobile

Battle royale sensation Fortnite has has been on mobile for a while now, and it has completely conquered both iOS and Android. The fact that this is the same game, pretty much feature-for-feature but on a phone, is mind-boggling.

Whether you’re a victory royale veteran, or someone discovering Fortnite for the first time, playing on mobile is quite the unique experience. The smaller screen, reduced visuals and bespoke touch controls totally change the way you must play what is essentially a third-person shooter, and one that can get pretty intense. With the recent release of Fortnite: Chapter 2, there's a whole new map to learn as well.

If only someone could provide you with some essential Fortnite: Chapter 2 tips & tricks to help you to stay competitive on your mobile...

Fortnite: Chapter 2 Mobile Controls

Fortnite Chapter 2 Tips

Limit your long-distance fighting

Always Carry Explosives

Be Aggressive

Don't be afraid to build

Learn the New Map

Moving Will Be Awkward At First

Play with sound where possible

Limit your long-distance fighting

This partly comes down to the current Fortnite meta across all platforms, but more so on mobile you shouldn’t really look to be fighting at range. Even on PC/console it isn’t ideal with the power of shotguns, poor accuracy of auto rifles, and the ease of movement.

Playing on another platform you probably have at least 18 inches of screen to look at, with all those high-quality pixels allowing you to spot every bit of movement. On mobile that real-estate could shrink to something like 4 inches with an iPhone SE. That movement becomes much more difficult to spot, meaning keeping track of opponents at a distance is near impossible. The touch controls also make it much harder to hit long distance shots without a scope.

This doesn’t mean you should avoid them like the plague. Instead, prioritise SMGs, assault rifles, explosives, and shotguns over precision death dealers - especially when you are just landing. If you do want to use a rifle, make sure to crouch and use the aim zoom to improve your accuracy. For those determined to fight at long range, the Burst Assault Rifle is quite potent. While it takes some time for the weapon bloom to diminish, this gun is perfect for picking foes off at long range. Just make sure to not standstill in the open when using it, otherwise, you'll be an easy target.

Always Carry Explosives

There are a lot of things that go boom in Fortnite and they are quite deadly on mobile. While console players can swiftly react to a grenade being thrown, mobile users are a little slower to act. Use this to your advantage and reign fiery death upon your opponents. With Rocket Launchers now dropping in uncommon and rare tiers, finding something to take down a structure is easier than ever.

Given how easy it is to aim and lob grenades at foes, this is a great way to start an engagement. Unless they are very fast at building, there's a good chance you'll have time to swap to a weapon and kill them. Since Fortnite: Chapter 2 drastically decreased the weapon pool, you'll need to be more vigilant about finding explosives. These remain extremely potent on mobile since movement is not a huge factor. Remember to use these explosives when someone is hiding in a structure. It's perfect for disorientating them and securing kills on weakened foes.

Be Aggressive

If you want to survive longer than a minute, you’ll need to start getting into firefights with other players. Typically, Fortnite’s building and plethora of ranged weapons allows users to stay back and pick off foes. However, since aiming on a mobile device is tricky the best option is force enemies to fight on your terms. Get in players faces when the bullets start flying and make them panic as you shoot them.

Moving is not nearly as fluid, so you can fluster your foes by destroying their cover and pressuring them with a hail of bullets. Weapons like Rocket Launchers, SMGs, shotguns, and even basic grenades are fantastic for forcing opponents out of position. Try to use the environment to break line of sight with your foes, especially if you can get the drop on them. Since rotating the camera can be a bit awkward, it’s not as common for someone to check behind them. Use this to your advantage and strike when they don’t have time to react.

Since players are still learning the new map, it's easy to set up traps and catch people by surprise. Jumping out of dumpsters and blasting foes is a cheeky way to get a kill, but don't always rely on it. As time passes, more users will become familiar with this new hiding mechanic. Alternatively, hiding around tight corners is always wise, since playing on a phone makes it tougher to quickly turn and shoot.

Don't be afraid to build

Building is key to success in Fortnite allowing you to travel across terrain quickly, get the drop on opponents and keep you safe when caught out. The touch controls on the mobile version are a little trickier than other versions since you have to move your hand away moving and/or shooting to select your building type, once you get some practice it becomes easier. We also have a dedicated tips guide on building in Fortnite, if you want to really dig deep into it.

We have seen so many people on iOS only servers not build anything when they really should, and it almost always results in an early death. Assembling cover can be tricky at first, so accept that you may die in the early hours while learning the new control scheme. If you’re coming over from PC or console don’t expect to quickly assemble the elaborate structures. Swapping between materials and parts takes more time, so focus on constructing simple pieces of cover.

The basic three walls and a single ramp will offer decent protection and simultaneously give you a height advantage. Traps are also quite potent since navigating your character can be a bit awkward and it’s easy to accidentally stumble into one. At the time of writing this, only the basic trap is available. Try setting this spike trap along ceilings over doorways or areas with heavy foot traffic. Never put them on the ground, as they are far easier to see and destroy. Always set them in an area where your foe cannot see them until it's too late.

Learn the New Fornite: Chapter 2 Map

For the first time ever, Fortnite has received a brand new map. This island is broken up by a series of rivers and features a mixture of new and familiar locations. When you first drop the entire island will be greyed out, with all the areas boasting a "???" over them. These sections will begin to fill in with color and names as you visit different areas. Unlocking all these areas should be your first priority, especially if you plan on completing challenges.

Since you can swim now, don't be afraid to use the rivers as a quick way to reach other locations. It's better to save your resources for when you get into a fight or need to climb over some terrain. There are a number of new locations, but if you like getting into the action right away consider dropping at Retail Row, Salty Springs, Pleasant Park, or Frenzy Farm. Inversely, Sunny Shore, Holly Hedges, and Misty Meadow typically don't see a ton of players dropping there.

There are a lot more open fields and grasslands in this new map, so be prepared to always throw a wall or two up if you come under fire. Do your best to avoid just sprinting out in the open, as there are plenty of mountains and hills you can use as artificial cover. Finally, be aware that the boats are quite tricky to drive on phones so only rely on them when absolutely necessary.

Moving Will Be Awkward At First

As mentioned above, real estate on your screen is at a premium on mobile, as those big ol’ thumbs will take up a lot of room. The positioning of your digits usually means you won’t miss too much, but there is always a chance some loot or even an enemy, manages to go undetected thanks to being covered up. There’s also a chance that you’ll accidentally tap the jump or crouch button. Because of this, it’s absolutely vital that you keep your right thumb in the lower corner of the screen. You can still tap the screen and quickly access your weapons without the risk of hitting another icon.

Remember, double tapping the virtual joystick used to move around will keep your character running forward until you take back control. This frees up screen space to use for scouting the area, and you can still move around by changing your camera angle to turn. Of course, once a fight breaks out you’ll need to take back control right away: strafing, jumping and climbing all needs extra precision that simple running doesn’t.

There may be visual clues, but still play with sound where possible

The most obvious new addition to the mobile version is visual indicators for footsteps, gunshots and chests, as well a direction indicator. It’s a wonderfully clear and obvious addition to the UI, and boy is it useful. Being able to know exactly the direction footsteps are coming from allows you to instantly target whoever is around the corner. It also allows you to plant those traps in places you know they will be.

That doesn’t mean sound isn’t useful though. It can help identify what specific weapon or weapon class is being shot, and other subtler clues that a simple UI tweak can’t provide. Planes are also very loud, so having the sound on can alert you when one is nearby. Obviously don’t be that person with sound coming out of the speakers in public, but in private/with headphones having sound will give an edge.

Do you have any tips or tricks of your own you want to share? Post them in the comments below!

Nissan Leaf SL Plus review: How the best-selling electric car’s tech stacks up

In keeping with my new tradition of reviewing cars, I took a spin in the Nissan Leaf SL Plus, a variant of the world’s best-selling electric vehicle.

I’m not much of a professional car reviewer. But I have driven a lot of tech-laden electric cars in the past year, including the Jaguar I-Pace, the BMW i3s, the Mini Cooper SE Countryman (hybrid), the Volkswagen e-Golf, and the Ford Fusion Energi.

After I came back from the CES 2019 tech trade show in January, I figured it made sense to start writing about cars now that companies are packing so much technology into these vehicles.

To get around reliance on fossil fuels, electric cars rely on great technology, of course. But I’m looking at the other tech embedded in the cars as it starts to fade into the woodwork and become just one more feature.

Basics of the Nissan Leaf SL Plus

The Nissan Leaf SL Plus model that I drove costs $42,550. (Thankfully, I didn’t get into a fender bender). Two other models, the SF Plus and the S Plus, sell for $38,510 and $36,550, respectively.

Nissan has sold more than 400,000 Leaf electric cars worldwide, including 132,000 in the U.S. The Plus models include Nissan Intelligent Mobility features and have a 62kWh lithium-ion battery pack that gives you a driving range of 226 miles.

That’s enough range to get me from the South Bay to San Francisco without “range anxiety.” It’s not enough to take me from the Bay Area to Los Angeles, which I do maybe once a year. But a 40-minute quick-charge stop (while taking time to eat a meal) would do it.

The vehicle has a 160-kilowatt motor that produces 214 horsepower and 250 pound-feet of torque. By comparison, the standard Nissan Leaf has a 40kWh battery pack with a range of up to 150 miles.

Accelerating from 50mph to 75mph is nearly 13% faster than with the standard Nissan Leaf, which allows the Nissan Leaf Plus to pass slower-moving vehicles, exit corners more quickly, and merge into traffic more easily. The top speed has also increased by 10%.

The car seats five people and has a comfy eight-way adjustable driver’s seat. Like most new cars, it features keyless ignition. You don’t put a key into a starter because that’s so old-fashioned — instead, you put your foot on the brake and press the “start” button.

It also offers some modern conveniences, like a rear door alert (RDA) that reminds you if you have left something in the rear seat. That’s especially important for anyone transporting babies or pets, not to mention a bag of groceries.

The vehicle comes in seven standard colors: Brilliant Silver Metallic, Gun Metallic, Super Black, Glacier White, Deep Blue Pearl, Pearl White, and Super Black, and two premium colors — Pearl White Tricoat and Scarlet Ember Tintcoat (pearl metallic plus tinted clearcoat).

Infotainment

You can remotely connect to the vehicle from a smartphone, wearable, Amazon Alexa, or Google Assistant via NissanConnect EV.

The dashboard features an 8-inch thin-film transistor, full-color infotainment screen. I used it to listen to CNN on Sirius XM satellite radio (which costs extra). It switches over instantly to FM, and I used a Bluetooth connection to link to my iPhone. You can tap on the touchscreen to move it to the next set of channels.

The car has Apple Car Play integration, which is a standard feature in many of the 2019 models I’ve driven this year. You can link your iPhone to Bluetooth or the car’s Wi-Fi network, which can be used as a hot spot. Activate Car Play to see what is on your iPhone on the car’s upper infotainment display. It also works with Google Android Auto.

The display has an updated navigation system that can be linked to a compatible smartphone. The display features smartphone-like operations, including swiping, scrolling, and tapping. Maps and firmware are updated over the air with the simple touch of a button, which means you don’t have to get them manually updated by USB or at a Nissan dealership.

I was able to use the touch icons on the car’s infotainment screen to choose my music. Below the dashboard, where you would expect to see an ashtray, there’s a USB connector for charging, near the power button.

Smarter driving with ProPilot Assist and e-Pedal

Above: Your dashboard will alert you to any driving hazards.

Nissan has its own brand of smarter driving features, with assistance from sensors and processing power. ProPilot Assist is a single-lane highway driving assist technology that can automatically adjust the distance to the vehicle ahead, using a speed preset by the driver.

ProPilot Assist can also help keep the vehicle centered in its lane. If the car in front stops, ProPilot Assist can automatically apply the brakes to bring the vehicle to a full stop if necessary. After coming to a full stop, the vehicle can remain in place even if the driver’s foot is off the brake.

If traffic restarts, the car will resume driving when the driver touches the steering wheel-mounted ProPilot Assist switch again or lightly presses the accelerator to activate the system. All of these functions can help reduce stress when driving on the highway in heavy traffic and on long commutes.

The Nissan Leaf also has e-Pedal, which allows the driver to start, accelerate, decelerate, and stop using only the accelerator pedal. To match the Nissan Leaf Plus’ additional power and increased mass, Nissan has reprogrammed the e-Pedal software for smoother operation and enhanced pedal feedback, especially for operation in reverse, and for smoother and more rapid deceleration, making it easier to stop the car using e-Pedal, even when backing up.

Along with ProPilot Assist and e-Pedal, the Nissan Leaf Plus has advanced safety technologies, including Intelligent Lane Intervention (I-LI) and Lane Departure Warning (LDW). These keep you in your lane and send a vibrational alert to the steering wheel if you are veering out of your line. If you switch lanes without signaling, you’ll feel the vibration.

It also has Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) and Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection. The side mirrors have orange lights that alert you via Blind Spot Warning (BSW) if  there is a car in your blind spot. The car also has Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) and Intelligent Around View Monitor (I-AVM). And you will see a video of what’s behind the car when you are backing up.

NissanConnect

The new Leaf Plus links drivers, vehicles, and communities through its convenient graphic-based human-machine interface. It allows the owner to use the NissanConnect smartphone app to perform tasks such as monitoring the vehicle’s state of charge, scheduling charging to benefit from optimal energy tariffs, finding the nearest charging station (which is very useful when you have range anxiety), and heating or cooling the car before getting in.

Other new features include Door-to-Door Navigation, which syncs the vehicle’s navigation system with your compatible smartphone for seamless driving and walking directions. The connections feature allows any of the car’s passengers to quickly and easily connect to a device within the vehicle.

Integration goes beyond what’s in the vehicle and now includes Nissan Energy, the company’s existing and future initiatives for Vehicle-to-Grid, Vehicle-to- Building, and Vehicle-to-Home connections, generating solar electricity, as well as reusing batteries. With Nissan Energy, Nissan Leaf vehicles are part of a larger electric vehicle ecosystem.

Charging

From previous electric cars, I learned that plugging them into an ordinary house electrical socket doesn’t do much good. You would charge only a small percentage of the battery per hour that way, even if you left it plugged in for days. But I was able to get a roughly 20% boost by charging the car overnight. If you use a faster charger — a High Output Quick Charge Port — you can charge about 80% of the battery capacity in 40 minutes.

Above: It is easy to find the nearest charger with the the Nissan Leaf SL Plus navigation system.

I was about to drive off in the Leaf SL Plus without disengaging the power cable from the charge port. That could have been bad, but the car wouldn’t let me move until I pulled the charger out. (It actually took me a while to figure out where the charging port was: in the front part of the hood.)

That’s actually a smart place to put the charging port because nobody wants to back a car into a quick-charge parking space just to reach a charging port in the back of the car.

If you get one of these cars, you should invest in the fast charger, which requires a special outlet in your house.

Worth the price?

At $42,550, the Nissan Leaf SL Plus is in a sweet spot, and the $36,550 standard Leaf sounds like a bargain compared to other cars I’ve driven, like the $69,500 Jaguar I-Pace and the $47,500 BMW i3s.

If you are looking for a car to commute from San Jose to San Francisco or vice versa, this could be the one. Of course, you’ll have to consider things like how long the car will last and how long the battery pack will stay healthy.

I’m not going to buy this car soon, but I’ll think seriously about it when one of my over 10-year-old cars finally falls apart. This zero-emission car is on the shortlist.

The vehicle has a 160-kilowatt motor that produces 214 horsepower and 250 pound-feet of torque. By comparison, the standard Nissan Leaf has a 40kWh battery pack with a range of up to 150 miles.

Accelerating from 50mph to 75mph is nearly 13% faster than with the standard Nissan Leaf, which allows the Nissan Leaf Plus to pass slower-moving vehicles, exit corners more quickly, and merge into traffic more easily. The top speed has also increased by 10%.

The car seats five people and has a comfy eight-way adjustable driver’s seat. Like most new cars, it features keyless ignition. You don’t put a key into a starter because that’s so old-fashioned — instead, you put your foot on the brake and press the “start” button.

It also offers some modern conveniences, like a rear door alert (RDA) that reminds you if you have left something in the rear seat. That’s especially important for anyone transporting babies or pets, not to mention a bag of groceries.

The vehicle comes in seven standard colors: Brilliant Silver Metallic, Gun Metallic, Super Black, Glacier White, Deep Blue Pearl, Pearl White, and Super Black, and two premium colors — Pearl White Tricoat and Scarlet Ember Tintcoat (pearl metallic plus tinted clearcoat).

Infotainment

You can remotely connect to the vehicle from a smartphone, wearable, Amazon Alexa, or Google Assistant via NissanConnect EV.

The dashboard features an 8-inch thin-film transistor, full-color infotainment screen. I used it to listen to CNN on Sirius XM satellite radio (which costs extra). It switches over instantly to FM, and I used a Bluetooth connection to link to my iPhone. You can tap on the touchscreen to move it to the next set of channels.

The car has Apple Car Play integration, which is a standard feature in many of the 2019 models I’ve driven this year. You can link your iPhone to Bluetooth or the car’s Wi-Fi network, which can be used as a hot spot. Activate Car Play to see what is on your iPhone on the car’s upper infotainment display. It also works with Google Android Auto.

The display has an updated navigation system that can be linked to a compatible smartphone. The display features smartphone-like operations, including swiping, scrolling, and tapping. Maps and firmware are updated over the air with the simple touch of a button, which means you don’t have to get them manually updated by USB or at a Nissan dealership.

I was able to use the touch icons on the car’s infotainment screen to choose my music. Below the dashboard, where you would expect to see an ashtray, there’s a USB connector for charging, near the power button.

Smarter driving with ProPilot Assist and e-Pedal

Nissan has its own brand of smarter driving features, with assistance from sensors and processing power. ProPilot Assist is a single-lane highway driving assist technology that can automatically adjust the distance to the vehicle ahead, using a speed preset by the driver.

ProPilot Assist can also help keep the vehicle centered in its lane. If the car in front stops, ProPilot Assist can automatically apply the brakes to bring the vehicle to a full stop if necessary. After coming to a full stop, the vehicle can remain in place even if the driver’s foot is off the brake.

If traffic restarts, the car will resume driving when the driver touches the steering wheel-mounted ProPilot Assist switch again or lightly presses the accelerator to activate the system. All of these functions can help reduce stress when driving on the highway in heavy traffic and on long commutes.

The Nissan Leaf also has e-Pedal, which allows the driver to start, accelerate, decelerate, and stop using only the accelerator pedal. To match the Nissan Leaf Plus’ additional power and increased mass, Nissan has reprogrammed the e-Pedal software for smoother operation and enhanced pedal feedback, especially for operation in reverse, and for smoother and more rapid deceleration, making it easier to stop the car using e-Pedal, even when backing up.

Along with ProPilot Assist and e-Pedal, the Nissan Leaf Plus has advanced safety technologies, including Intelligent Lane Intervention (I-LI) and Lane Departure Warning (LDW). These keep you in your lane and send a vibrational alert to the steering wheel if you are veering out of your line. If you switch lanes without signaling, you’ll feel the vibration.

It also has Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) and Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection. The side mirrors have orange lights that alert you via Blind Spot Warning (BSW) if  there is a car in your blind spot. The car also has Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) and Intelligent Around View Monitor (I-AVM). And you will see a video of what’s behind the car when you are backing up.

NissanConnect

The new Leaf Plus links drivers, vehicles, and communities through its convenient graphic-based human-machine interface. It allows the owner to use the NissanConnect smartphone app to perform tasks such as monitoring the vehicle’s state of charge, scheduling charging to benefit from optimal energy tariffs, finding the nearest charging station (which is very useful when you have range anxiety), and heating or cooling the car before getting in.

Other new features include Door-to-Door Navigation, which syncs the vehicle’s navigation system with your compatible smartphone for seamless driving and walking directions. The connections feature allows any of the car’s passengers to quickly and easily connect to a device within the vehicle.

Integration goes beyond what’s in the vehicle and now includes Nissan Energy, the company’s existing and future initiatives for Vehicle-to-Grid, Vehicle-to- Building, and Vehicle-to-Home connections, generating solar electricity, as well as reusing batteries. With Nissan Energy, Nissan Leaf vehicles are part of a larger electric vehicle ecosystem.

Charging

From previous electric cars, I learned that plugging them into an ordinary house electrical socket doesn’t do much good. You would charge only a small percentage of the battery per hour that way, even if you left it plugged in for days. But I was able to get a roughly 20% boost by charging the car overnight. If you use a faster charger — a High Output Quick Charge Port — you can charge about 80% of the battery capacity in 40 minutes.

I was about to drive off in the Leaf SL Plus without disengaging the power cable from the charge port. That could have been bad, but the car wouldn’t let me move until I pulled the charger out. (It actually took me a while to figure out where the charging port was: in the front part of the hood.)

That’s actually a smart place to put the charging port because nobody wants to back a car into a quick-charge parking space just to reach a charging port in the back of the car.

If you get one of these cars, you should invest in the fast charger, which requires a special outlet in your house.

Worth the price?

At $42,550, the Nissan Leaf SL Plus is in a sweet spot, and the $36,550 standard Leaf sounds like a bargain compared to other cars I’ve driven, like the $69,500 Jaguar I-Pace and the $47,500 BMW i3s.

If you are looking for a car to commute from San Jose to San Francisco or vice versa, this could be the one. Of course, you’ll have to consider things like how long the car will last and how long the battery pack will stay healthy.

I’m not going to buy this car soon, but I’ll think seriously about it when one of my over 10-year-old cars finally falls apart. This zero-emission car is on the shortlist.

Nissan Leaf SL Plus review: How the best-selling electric car’s tech stacks up

In keeping with my new tradition of reviewing cars, I took a spin in the Nissan Leaf SL Plus, a variant of the world’s best-selling electric vehicle.

I’m not much of a professional car reviewer. But I have driven a lot of tech-laden electric cars in the past year, including the Jaguar I-Pace, the BMW i3s, the Mini Cooper SE Countryman (hybrid), the Volkswagen e-Golf, and the Ford Fusion Energi.

After I came back from the CES 2019 tech trade show in January, I figured it made sense to start writing about cars now that companies are packing so much technology into these vehicles.

To get around reliance on fossil fuels, electric cars rely on great technology, of course. But I’m looking at the other tech embedded in the cars as it starts to fade into the woodwork and become just one more feature.

Basics of the Nissan Leaf SL Plus

The Nissan Leaf SL Plus model that I drove costs $42,550. (Thankfully, I didn’t get into a fender bender). Two other models, the SF Plus and the S Plus, sell for $38,510 and $36,550, respectively.

Nissan has sold more than 400,000 Leaf electric cars worldwide, including 132,000 in the U.S. The Plus models include Nissan Intelligent Mobility features and have a 62kWh lithium-ion battery pack that gives you a driving range of 226 miles.
