![]() I have the great pleasure now to be the lead game designer on Insurgency: Sandstorm. On our next title Day of Infamy I maintained some of those community duties, but primarily took on a new role of casting, directing, and writing for the many talented actors we brought onto the project. On Insurgency I wrote and voiced just about all the game’s voice over, worked as the team’s community manager, and also hosted our weekly official livestreams. ![]() Some of you might know me as Mikee ingame or by one of my former roles. Let’s talk a little bit about Sandstorm, and why I’m writing this announcement. The whole team deeply appreciates his time and contributions to our projects, and we wish him only the best. Andrew has been a mentor and a friend to me personally, providing guidance when I began full time with the team as community manager. A love for this kind of multiplayer experience led to the commercial release of a full standalone Insurgency game in 2014, our WWII FPS Day of Infamy in 2017, and our current project Insurgency: Sandstorm. It was the inception of our signature gameplay and style of FPS that our team continues to develop. Released in 2007, the mod won ModDB’s Mod of the Year award. Andrew has been with us since the very beginning, co-concepting Insurgency: Modern Infantry Combat with our CEO Jeremy Blum. Our creative director Andrew Spearin has left New World to pursue other opportunities. We’ll need to start with some sobering news. ![]() ![]() But now it’s time to get a little more talkative. We’ve been chugging away and working on things in relative secrecy. We’ve been quiet for a while about Sandstorm, I know. I am the lead game designer on Insurgency: Sandstorm, and I want to give you all an update on what we’re up to here at New World.

![]() Thus, a person is more aware and apprehensive about ones fingers, which can be easily pulled away from situations that can cause injury to them. This can also be due to the fact, that finger movements are controlled by a large area of the brain. Buddy strapping during sport is generally recommended until 12 weeks, but if you had some decent hand therapy and followed the expert advice, your injury will most likely be a distant memory from the time you had “just” a dislocated finger.A dislocated finger joint is rarely seen in orthopedic practice, due to the inborn reflexive attitude of a person to protect fingers from injury. Some swelling and the odd twinge of pain may linger. What to do – week 6 and beyond.Īll being well your finger should be pretty much back to normal by this time. If you wish to play sport, you will need to strap the finger to the neighbouring finger to protect it from re-injury. It’s likely that you will be able to stop wearing the splint most of the time but you still need to be careful with what you do as the finger is still healing. This is important as swelling is part of the healing process and pain is an important reminder to be kind to your finger because it’s still healing. It’s normal for the finger to still be somewhat swollen and painful. This is an important time for the injured structures in your finger to keep healing. Secondly, keep wearing your splint and complying with the prescribed treatment. If you haven’t already, visit your local hand therapy clinic. But not just any exercises, very specific exercises which are safe to do post dislocation, usually whilst wearing your custom-made splint. Yes, even though the finger will be painful, exercises are important in the first week. A compression wrap to the finger will help to control the swelling, as persistent swelling is a major contributing factor pain and stiffness of the finger. A practitioner of hand therapy will be able to custom make a suitable splint to protect the finger from further dislocation, without immobilising any joints that do not need to be. It s so important for us to provide education about what has been injured, what to avoid to prevent further injury and what can be done to aid in a speedy recovery. First and foremost, Hand therapy will arm you with information. They do not have the in depth knowledge and experience for dealing with finger injuries. Be cautious of seeing other allied health or complementary medicine professionals. What to do – week oneĪrmed with your x-ray in hand, visit your local hand therapy clinic as soon after your injury as you can, preferably within the first week. This is to prevent it popping out again as you may have torn some of the supportive tendons or ligaments. The finger should be splinted or buddy strapped to the neighbouring finger immediately after reduction. Please do not skip this step! X-rays are bulk-billed so this will only cost you your time and may save you time, money, pain and a raft of problems down the track. This will tell you whether the joint is in the correct position, whether the joint is stable, and whether there had been any accompanying bony injury. It’s very important to get an x-ray after the dislocation has been reduced. An x-ray prior to popping the finger back in (known as reducing the dislocation) can actually be useful information for your treating therapist. If there isn’t someone qualified onsite, go to your local emergency department. Jo Bloggs could cause more damage by reefing on your injured finger. When you or your team-mate dislocate a finger in a match, make sure it is only put back in by a qualified person. Because it may not be “just” a dislocated finger. ![]() I’m here to give you some tips on why and how to prevent complications such as stiffness, deformity and recurrent dislocations. ![]() And then what? The only solution is surgical. The more often you dislocate the same joint, the more easily it happens until it takes barely anything to pop it out of place. ![]() You’re left with a permanently bent, clunky or stiff finger. Sometimes, it’s as simple as popping the finger back in, buddy strapping to the next finger and away you go. All it takes is a fast-moving ball to hit the end of the finger and – ouch! It’s dislocated. That sounds a bit more serious… but isn’t it just a dislocated finger?įinger dislocations are extremely common in ball sports, in fact you may have had one or two yourself. But it’s no biggie because he won’t miss any matches, right? But hang on a second, the Lions team Head of Medical reported that the dislocation was accompanied by a small fracture near the joint and Rockliff has to wear a splint on the finger when he’s not playing. If you follow the AFL, you’ll know that Brisbane Lions vice captain Tom Rockliff experienced a finger dislocation last month during their match against Richmond.

![]() ![]() Whereas “Break the Ice” by John Farnham from the Rad soundtrack will actually give you street cred with those “in the know.” It’s possible to save yourself when a song comes on that the person doesn’t know but you’ll have to have a good enough story and reason for giving it the push to your almighty iPod. Having your friends ask you to unlock their car doors so they could tumble out while you’re still driving is a possibility if they hear you have the Baywatch theme song on your iPod. You can win people over with goofy favorites like Wham’s “Wake Me Up Before you Go-Go,” but if their song “Freedom” comes on then your stock descends faster than the Delorean running low on plutonium. ![]() How about when your iPod segues from Rob Zombie’s “Superbeast” right into “How Will I Know” by Whitney Houston? It’s totally cool to have Whitney on your iPod, especially if its one of her big hits, but when you’re in the car with a bunch of guy friends, and at the very least trying to act cool, your attempts are murdered by the sweet sound of synthesizers. Although, you have to admit that at least a little part of you would squirm in your seat a bit. Some of you may not even realize that they’re both WWE theme songs and in that case you may sidestep some shame. Right after rocking out to “Welcome to the Jungle,” you hear the beginning chords of “Sexy Boy” the Shawn Michaels’ theme song or the Native American war chant that kicks off Tatanka’s theme song. Picture it, you’re rolling down the main street of your town, windows down, iPod on shuffle mode, and you have your friends in the car. Everyone’s bound to experience one of those “uh-oh” moments if an embarrassing song starts playing on your iPod. ![]() Yes, the desktop version of this app available on the windows and mac os systems.Īns.

This free-to-play battle royale started out as Cuisine Royale – a PUBG spoof, but when players kept coming back, it became apparent that Darkflow Software had found something that’s largely absent across the battle royale games genre: light-hearted fun.Ĭrsed: FOAD is still all about surviving to the end and outlasting dozens of opponents, but instead of armour you’ll be scrabbling around for colanders and baking trays to protect your fleshy parts from incoming bullets. If you think you can live with yourself in such dire circumstances, though, this a must-play. ![]() The end of the war constantly seems like a pipe-dream, and everyone will probably be dead before you get there. It’s a bleak existence, and making what seems to be the obvious right decision at one point in time can lead to disastrous conclusions. And turning a survivor into a murderer leads to misery, depression, and – if not treated well – suicide. But heading out into the world to find the things you need – medicine, ingredients, scrap to make beds – could bring you face-to-face with those willing to kill.

The Science Machine and Alchemy Engine will become your best friends, before making way for ancient wonders and the art of magic. But rather than crafting houses like in Rust and Minecraft, this indie game is all about the tools and contraptions you can make. Werepigs, Beargers, Deerclopses, and many more absurd monsters roam the land looking to make things difficult for you.ĭon’t Starve focuses heavily on crafting to make your way through life, and so much of your time is spent harvesting raw materials – just like a crafting game. The terror of having to fend for yourself in the wild is thankfully offset by the lovely Tim Burton-style 2D art, and the collection of utterly bizarre creatures that are lurking in this sepia-tone world. That’s exactly what Don’t Starve makes you do, as it’s an entirely solo experience. The most horrifying idea of actual survival is having to do it on your lonesome.
