AVALANCHE STUDIOS IN THE WASTELAND With only a week to go until the release of Mad Max, we wanted to share one of our favorite experiences from this journey. Most game developers never get to touch anything they create. Their work is forever locked behind glass screens. So when the centerpiece of the upcoming Mad Max game – a unique car called the Magnum Opus – would be re-created in real life, it was an overwhelming experience for the team at Avalanche Studios. In this short documentary, we get to follow Lead Artist Daniel Persson, the original designer of the Magnum Opus, and Odd Ahlgren, Director of Narrative Content, as they witness their work come to life. Odd even travels to Wasteland Weekend, the celebration of all things post-apocalyptic, to realize a life-long dream. Watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjVQPRqLQsM Mad Max is out on Playstation 4, Xbox One and Windows PC on September 1, 2015. See brand new screenshots and trailers at www.madmaxgame.com. About Avalanche Studios Avalanche Studios is the original creator of the award-winning Just Cause franchise, and is currently working on Just Cause 3 (published by Square Enix), slated for release in December 2015.

The Hunter: Call of the Wild - Tereny Łowieckie Na Amerykańskim Wybrzeżu Północno-Zachodnim – Zwiastun Premierowy Już Dostępny
The Hunter: Call of the Wild - tereny łowieckie na amerykańskim Wybrzeżu Północno-Zachodnim – zwiastun premierowy już dostępny Moenchengladbach, Niemcy, 13 lutego 2017 – W tygodniu premiery theHunter™: Call of the Wild, Avalanche Studios, Expansive Worlds i astragon Entertainment z dumą prezentują premierowy zwiastun gry przedstawiający drugi wielki dostępny dla graczy teren łowiecki położony nad jeziorem Layton. Umiejscowione na Wybrzeżu Północno-Wschodnim tereny łowieckie w okolicach jeziora Layton zapewnią graczom odmianę od stonowanych, jesiennych barw zapowiedzianego już wcześniej rezerwatu Hirschfelden. Gęste, rozległe, sosnowe lasy okolone ośnieżonymi szczytami to terytorium zwierzyny tak majestatycznej jak łoś, mulak białogłowy, jeleń Roosevelta, czy niedźwiedź czarny oraz wielu innych. Łącznie w podstawowej grze dostępnych jest 14 różnych broni myśliwskich, od dalekonośnych karabinów przez ciche i precyzyjne łuki, po wymagającą dużej zręczności w użytkowaniu broń ręczną. Niektóre z nich mogą zostać wyposażone w lunety oraz różne rodzaje amunicji. Zestaw umiejętności postaci również wpłynie na sposób działania broni, zmniejszając odrzut lub przyśpieszając przeładowanie, gdy sytuacja stanie się gorąca. Należy również odnotować, że theHunter™: Call of the Wild od dnia premiery oferować będzie wsparcie dla systemu śledzenia ruchu gałek ocznych – Tobii. Ta imponująca technologia wspiera użycie w grze jednego z najważniejszych dla myśliwego zmysłów i sprawia, że wrażenia wzrokowe stają się jeszcze istotniejszą częścią doświadczenia rozgrywki. Gracz odczuje to jako jeszcze głębsze zanurzenie w świat gry, pozwalające na lepsze wyczucie otoczenia i swobodniejszą niż kiedykolwiek eksplorację terenów łowieckich. Cały zwiastun premierowy przygotowany został w oparciu o nagrania rozgrywki toczącej się w silniku Apex - Avalanche Studios Open World Engine. Materiał ukazuje wyjątkową scenerię amerykańskiego Wybrzeża Północno-Zachodniego i prezentuje poziom szczegółowości grafiki dotychczas niespotykany w grach łowieckich.

Game Developer Index 2010 Foreword
SWEDISH GAME INDUSTRY’S REPORTS 2011 Game Developer Index 2010 Foreword It’s hard to imagine an industry where change is so rapid as in the games industry. Just a few years ago massive online games like World of Warcraft dominated, then came the breakthrough for party games like Singstar and Guitar Hero. Three years ago, Nintendo turned the gaming world upside-down with the Wii and motion controls, and shortly thereafter came the Facebook games and Farmville which garnered over 100 million users. Today, apps for both the iPhone and Android dominate the evolution. Technology, business models, game design and marketing changing almost every year, and above all the public seem to quickly embrace and follow all these trends. Where will tomorrow’s earnings come from? How can one make even better games for the new platforms? How will the relationship between creator and audience change? These and many other issues are discussed intensively at conferences, forums and in specialist press. Swedish success isn’t lacking in the new channels, with Minecraft’s unprecedented success or Battlefield Heroes to name two examples. Independent Games Festival in San Francisco has had Swedish winners for four consecutive years and most recently we won eight out of 22 prizes. It has been touted for two decades that digital distribution would outsell traditional box sales and it looks like that shift is finally happening. Although approximately 85% of sales still goes through physical channels, there is now a decline for the first time since one began tracking data. The transformation of games as a product to games as a service seems to be here.

Our aim is to provide the best care possible for every patient by working collaboratively with public safety agencies, BLS and ALS providers, hospitals, educational partners, and our community members. Our team recognizes that, like all areas of health care, pre-hospital emergency medicine is a constantly changing industry. In 2019, we continued the work we began in 2018. We created new protocols and procedures to assist our field providers, further developed our capacity for vigorous quality improvement, and forged stronger partnerships with all EMS stakeholders to provide life-saving educational campaigns for our communities. We purchased an emergency response vehicle to provide assurance to our stakeholders and the community that EMS can respond and provide leadership in any situation. But we know our work doesn’t end there.

Thehunter: Primal – Now Angrier, Hungrier and Better Value
Stockholm, December 19th, 2015 THEHUNTER: PRIMAL – NOW ANGRIER, HUNGRIER AND BETTER VALUE Earlier this year, Avalanche Studios and Expansive Worlds released theHunter: Primal, a stand-alone, one-time purchase on Steam. Carving out a unique, prehistoric niche in the survival genre, Primal gained substantial attention and positive player feedback following its release. Since then, we’ve listened intently to our community. They have asked for new weapons, gadgets as well as an expanded endgame. So we are now releasing a patch offering exactly that – at no added cost. We have also lowered the price of the full game to $19.99. For those previously on the fence, the time has come for some prehistoric holiday hunting! In the free update, we’re introducing the “Primal Queen”, a creature both bigger and stronger than a normal T-Rex, with improved AI and aggression turned way up. It can only be lured out of hiding by using a Scent Gland - harvested from another big T-Rex female - and only one will inhabit each server. With the introduction of the “Queen”, the world of theHunter: Primal has finally received a boss character. Taking her down will prove almost impossible for a lone hunter, requiring a team to work together. In addition to the Scent Gland, we are also introducing the Drop Pod Beacon, which lets you respawn at its position as well as the Axe, Reverse Crossbow and Assault Rifle to even the odds. Rare dinosaurs will now also drop loot, which then will be unlocked in the store. To round things off, we’ve killed a few bugs (and encapsulated them in prehistoric resin for future use) and polished some of our UI elements.

Practical Clustered Shading
1 2 3 4 5 I have split the talk into separate sections, representing slightly updated content that has been previously presented, and a new section containing all new material. 6 7 The first Just Cause had 3 global pointlights. This meant that if, for instance, three streetlights were enabled and you fired your gun, one of the lights would shut off for the duration of the gun flash. Clearly, this solution was hardly ideal. For Just Cause 2 we switched to a world-space 2D tiled solution where light indexes were stored in texels. The technique has been described in detail in the article ”Making it Large, Beautiful, Fast, and Consistent: Lessons Learned Developing Just Cause 2” in GPU Pro. This technique was actually in some ways similar to clustered shading, although much more limited and designed around DX9 level hardware. It worked reasonably well on platforms with decent dynamic branching, such as PC and Xenon, whereas the PS3 struggled. Ultimately this caused us to implement numerous workarounds to get PS3 running well, so that in the end this technique mostly ended up being a fallback option if the light count was too high for a specialized shader to work. The amount of specialized shaders also became quite a bit of a maintenance problems, and figuring out the light count a performance issue on the CPU side. 8 After Just Cause 2 we ended going the deferred shading route, initially using classic deferred. This worked relatively well for last generation console hardware and allowed us to support many more lights, different light types, shadow casting dynamic lights etc.
