Black Ops 3 Awakening Dlc Maps

[Rafael Nowning]

Therehas been an awakening. Have you felt it? No, not that awakening, this one: Awakening, a DLC pack that will bring five maps to Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 on February 2. Just in time for all the lucky boys, girls, men, and women who'll unwrap the game on Christmas to finish the campaign and get their feet wet in multiplayer.

Three maps in Awakening are all-new. Gauntlet emphasizes developer Treyarch's three-lane design philosophy of maps, with the stage being split into three distinct areas: one themed after a thick jungle, one emulating a snowy mountain landscape, and one designed to reflect a rainy urban environment. Rise is a more traditional Call of Duty map, with abandoned warehouses and industrial refuse littering the landscape. My personal favorite though has to be Splash, which takes place in an abandoned water park. It's bright and colorful, with plenty of pirate motifs to have me shouting "YARR MATEYS" at my teammates.

Skyjacked is semi-new, as it's a re-worked version of Hijacked from Black Ops 2. Where that map took place on a large boat, Skyjacked is set on a large heli-carrier. There are slight changes made to reflect the game's new movement system, but this is by and large the same map. Lastly, Der Eisendrache is medieval castle environment designed for the Zombies co-op experience. It's cloaked in mystery (as these occult things tend to be), but needless to say there will be plenty of undead looking to make mincemeat of you.

Let me begin by saying I am a huge fan of Black Ops 3, Ghosts was too easy and the extinction mode was nothing compared to Black Ops zombies, while Advanced Warfare was way too fast paced and twitch based with exo zombies being a decent addition to zombies, however not on caliber with the black ops maps. Black Ops 3 was a great return to the MOSTLY traditional Black Ops multiplayer format. I say mostly traditional because or the addition of the booster pack that is similar to the exo suit from Advanced Warfare, as well as the ability to run on walls and boost slide. The pace and movement is cranked up another notch from Black Ops 2 but nowhere near as fast as Advanced Warfare. Awakening is the first DLC map pack of four scheduled for Black Ops 3 and it contains 4 multiplayer maps and the new addition of Der Eisendrache zombies map.

A mysterious burst of light was detected in a far galaxy previously thought of as unremarkable. In the Virgo constellation, galaxy SDSS1335+0728 is now believed to have witnessed changes we have never seen before as the result of the sudden awakening of a massive black hole at its center.

Astronomers had been monitoring galaxy SDSS1335+0728 for decades when, unexpectedly, in late 2019, they observed a light burst stronger than any we had seen before. Studies now have concluded that the birth of a massive black hole 1 million times more massive than the Sun at the heart of a distant galaxy is the cause of the observed light burst. The recent dramatic surge in the galaxy's luminosity has captivated the scientific community and offers a unique opportunity to witness the enigmatic behavior of a colossal black hole in real-time.

The initial indication of this extraordinary event came in December 2019, when the Zwicky Transient Facility, an observatory in California, recorded an unexpected and sudden rise in the galaxy's brightness. This observation triggered a wave of new investigations and re-examinations of archived data from both ground-based and space-based telescopes. The findings were astounding: the galaxy's brightness had doubled in mid-infrared wavelengths, quadrupled in ultraviolet light, and increased at least tenfold in the X-ray range.

Active galactic nuclei are known for their spectacular light shows, but this discovery is particularly notable because it represents a rare opportunity to observe such an event from its inception. The precise trigger for the activation remains unclear, but it is a subject of intense study and speculation. One alternative hypothesis considered by the research team is an exotic form of a "tidal disruption event." This scenario involves a star being torn apart after wandering too close to the black hole, resulting in a temporary increase in the galaxy's brightness. Typically, tidal disruption events are short-lived, brightening the galaxy for only a few hundred days.

The implications of this discovery extend beyond the immediate fascination with the brightening galaxy. It offers a unique laboratory for studying the behavior of supermassive black holes and the processes that govern active galactic nuclei. Understanding these phenomena can provide critical insights into the evolution of galaxies and the dynamics of their central black holes.

The ongoing observations involve a collaborative effort from various astronomical facilities worldwide. The European Southern Observatory, along with other ground-based telescopes and space-based observatories, continues to monitor the galaxy. Each new piece of data contributes to a more comprehensive understanding of the processes at play.

This discovery also underscores the importance of continuous monitoring and re-evaluation of known celestial objects. Decades of routine observations of SDSS1335+0728 yielded no indications of the dramatic events to come, highlighting the dynamic and ever-changing nature of the universe.

As astronomers continue to unravel the mysteries of SDSS1335+0728, the scientific community eagerly anticipates new revelations about the enigmatic behavior of black holes and their profound impact on the galaxies they inhabit. The sudden awakening of this massive black hole offers a rare and invaluable glimpse into the extraordinary and often violent processes that shape our universe.
