5 Tips for new Megacorp employees


Now that we are all playing Eliminate Pro, it is time to share some tips from the expert gamers at TouchArcade. There are 5 things that you should consider to progress faster in your career.

  1. Use Auto-Fire: A day at Arsenal Megacorp is tiring for your thumbs. Make sure the Auto-fire mode in your weapon is activated and don't stop firing.
  2. Mind your back: Cover your back when possible and stop wasting time looking who is behind you. Unlike other first person shooters, walking backwards is not a good idea. With three other employees in the room, you'd better watch out. 
  3. Know your workplace: With 5 different facilities, take your time playing with bots or to get familiar with all the areas. Know where players appear, power ups, dangerous spots, shortcuts,...
  4. Upgrade for performance: Choose one armour and one weapon and stick with them. Upgrade them to the maximum. The you can change. Don't spend credits in irrelevant features that won't help you at work. Focus on performance.
  5. In the head hurts a lot: Aim for the head for best results. Try to anticipate the movements of the other players and surprise them in their faces. Beware of the kangaroos. 

The waiting periods while your suit recharges are a great moment to practice new tactics and to make friends. If you use twitter and have not registered in the Megacorp Workers Union, what are you waiting for? Join the "Prepare to be Eliminated" list to meet new employees around the world.

iPhone Hints: Lock picture orientation in Photos - Macworld

Here’s a problem you’ve probably encountered while trying to show someone else a picture in the iPhone’s Photos app. As you pass the phone around, the accelerometer keeps flipping the image from portrait to landscape to upside-down landscape and back again. Annoying, right?

As it turns out, there’s an easy way to fix this (at least on iPhone 3.1.2, which I'm running): just tap and hold on the image for a second or two and the phone will lock it into position. This might cause a “Copy” bubble to pop up, but it will disappear after a moment, and the image will retained locked, no matter which way you flip the phone. To unlock it, just tap the image again and you’re done.

I only get to know this now after using the iPhone for two years now. You see, there was no app for that.

Buzz up!on Yahoo!

Did you know that Lucasfilm owns the trademark to the word "Droid?" Apparently, the word is mentioned once or twice in that "Star Wars" movie he made a bunch of years ago. As it turns out, if someone wants to use the term in an official product name, they've got to clear the rights with George and company.
