Hey there lads and ladies, it is Petrifying Pumpkins here back with another Firewall zero hour update. This time we've got a massive one as Firewall Operation Nightfall was just recently teased by First Contact Entertainment over on their YouTube channel during a live developer stream hosted by Firewall Frank himself. So in this video we are going to go over everything we know about Operation Nightfall so far and we are going to speculate on some things that have raised my eyebrow and got me feeling very moist so let's not waste any more time and let's jump right in. So the first thing you'll notice is the new loading screen here it's got a new redesign a new color scheme it puts operation nightfall front and center so what we can gather from this is that this isn't just another DLC content drop like we've been getting until now this is more like an expansion or maybe even firewall 2.0 as I've seen people mention something along those lines basically this is big and we can see how much has changed once Frank loads into the lobby area not only has the UI been drastically redesigned into something that looks much sleeker than what we have now but the actual lobby area itself has changed you're not in the shoot house map anymore you'll be in the brand new hangar map which was previously teased and we'll talk a bit more about that later for right now let's take a closer look at the new UI I'm going to break the new menu down piece by piece starting at the very top left you'll see a metal cog shape which is very likely to be the settings menu just to the rice of that then is what appears to be an eye in a white circle which I am assuming is an information icon now I'm not sure exactly what will happen when you click on this but it's probably safe to say it will give you information about some aspect of the game maybe we'll explain the rules of the currently selected mode or something like this now to the rice of that then we have a tab that says updates now this could be a few things it could be a place where first contact entertainment can display a message to the players letting them know about updates or patch notes or maybe scheduled maintenance or something along those lines you'll be familiar with that type of thing if you play online games often I'm sure to the rice of that then we have a daily tasks tab which I'm very happy to see so if you don't know what daily tasks are they are essentially a list of objectives for you to complete within 24 hours doing so will net you some kind of reward these tasks tend to be things like you know get 15 kills with the desert eagle or maybe hack the laptop three times stuff like that there are little things but the best part is they kind of force you to maybe play in a way that you wouldn't normally so you try out new weapons and equipment and it'll just add a bit of variety a bit of spice to the game the question is what will be the reward for completing these challenges it's safe to say you'll probably get XP and crypto but for the level 50 players who already have everything it would be nice if we see a little something extra and I'll talk a bit more about that later on in the video now moving down and to the left we see a large panel that shows the artwork for the nightfall DLC we see a portrait of the new contractor Ruby who was previously teased but not revealed until right now and she's standing in the new hangar map in front of a cargo plane fuselage or something along those lines if you missed it last time around Ruby's embedded skill is called thief and it allows her to hack into dead enemies wrist tablets and extract crypto now it's going to be interesting to see how much crypto that you can actually nest if you do this and if it actually removes that amount from the enemy's bank account which I hope it does just for the lords you know now if we move down onto the panel we see a very intriguing progress bear that is currently sitting at 13% and that bear itself is simply labeled nightfall so what could this bear represent could it be a community challenge that requires the player base to score a certain amount of kills or wins in order to fill the bear and if so what happens when the bear hits 100% could it be representing new trophies at the game and the players progress with unlocking them could it be tracking a daily task of some kind I've got no idea but that bear does have me moist I'd love to hear what you lads and ladies think that might be in the comments below now directly beneath that progress bear then we see a panel that is advertising the playstation store it's safe to assume that clicking on that will open up the playstation store for easy access to purchasable cosmetics if we move to the right abyss we can see some player stats now the level badge is there as usual but it appears larger now it's more front and center directly beneath that badge you can see your progress towards your next level now if you look closely here you can see that frank is already level 50 and he has earned 1 million and 65 000 xp so he has actually passed the threshold needed to hit 50 so I'm going to take this to mean that operation nightfall will not increase the player level cap otherwise we'd see him progressing towards level 51 right now now it's possible I'm wrong and that they're hiding us or they haven't finished this and it'll be there in release but not right now but until I see otherwise it looks like the level cap is going to remain 50 for now directly beneath that we see the players total crypto and total xp but underneath those is something brand new there appears to be a new type of currency or collectible there now I'm not sure what that icon is but it looks to me like maybe a usb stick or maybe a grenade chime in below if you think you know what that icon is right now whatever it is frank has zero of us now this brings me back to the daily tasks could it be possible that completing daily tasks will reward us with this new type of currency and that this new type of currency could then be used to unlock some cool stuff like maybe fancy camouflage or weapon skins or something along those lines or is it something else entirely again let me know your ideas on what you think that might be it's one of the more interesting items on show here and it's got me feeling a bit moist with the possibilities you know right now I'm not going to lie I'm sulking so let's move over to the right side of the new menu now now starting with the top right corner you can see frank's avatar the little astro bot dude and beside that there is a plus button which appears to be the squad invite button we'll talk a little bit more about the invites and squad building in a bit for now let's move down to the tabs running along just below us there are five tabs displayed here and they are mode loadouts contractor operation and leaderboard frank currently has the mode tab selected and we can see that below this displays the three modes available below these modes are the same that we already have these are tutorial training and contracts now as frank hovers over training and contracts we see a drop-down menu briefly appear that will let you choose between solo private and public very sleek indeed next frank selects the contractor tab which of course allows you to select your contractor now the difference here though is that each contractor has been given their own nice-looking character portraits four contractors are displayed per page and you turn the pages by hitting the arrows on the sides of the character panel frank selects the new contractor ruby and we see that as he hovers over her the icons for the skills that are equipped to her appear over her portraits so in this case she has the embedded thief skill and the scout skill equipped two more icons then seem to appear after he selects ruby one of them is a cross shape or maybe a post shape and the other looks like an edis icon now i'm not sure what that cross shape does but i'm going to assume that the icon that looks like an editing icon will allow you to edis your contractor skills and appearance doing this in the lobby menu is something that firewall players have been crying out for since day one so that is such a nice quality of life improvement right there if that's the case next up frank selects the loadout tab and we see the new weapon for the first time it's called a raptor and it's a submachine gun that seems to be based on the real life ump45 or perhaps an mp5k as was pointed out to me during the live stream yesterday now i've looked up both weapons i'm leaning towards the ump45 based on the shape of the magazine the mp5k seems to have a bit of a curve on us whereas the ump is pretty straight looking but i'm no gun expert so if you know better then let me know down below one thing i also noticed or rather didn't notice was that i couldn't tell if they added more custom loadout slots or not so that's kind of still up in the air right now next then frank receives an invitation from demo one and we can see that when he goes to check it out he can see all the other players in that lobby beforehand now i'm usually the one who sends out the invites when it comes to firewall so you guys will have to let me know if that's the same way it's always been or has the invite system been improved anyway frank accepts the advice and is loaded into the new lobby and there are some changes from the first lobby at the top of the menu we can see that he's now in a private pvp lobby so private contracts basically and on the far left panel we see a list of all the connected players along with new icons beside each person's name there's either a shield icon or a sword icon which represents whether or not they're on the defendant team or the attacking team frank then looks to his left and we can see his teammates are in the middle of loading in now if you look over their heads you'll see that the icons that represent your teammates loadouts have been updated they are no longer white silhouettes they are now detailed images of the actual weapons and equipments that you'll be using now these small touches really make the game look a bit more polished in my opinion back on the right side of the menu again there are still two tabs that frank hasn't selected now the one on the end is the leaderboard tab and that should be self-explanatory but then we have this one here called operation and this one has me scratching my head now remember this update is called operation night fall so if we pick this tab will we see operation nightfall listed there and with potential spaces for future operations if so what would happen if we picked a different operation could it be a playlist of certain maps for example maybe middle eastern maps uk maps or russian maps in their own playlists i truly have no idea on this one so i'll be needing you lasin ladies to give me your thoughts on this one down below moving on we see that the two texas teammates have loaded in on frank's menu and i know some of you folks out there have noticed this their character models are doing a default animation rather than actually tracking and mimicking what the teammate is doing in real life and i see some of you thinking that they've removed us i just want to say that you could very well be right about that but i suspect that because this is an in-house developer build of the game that not all things that we see here are going to be representative of what we see in the consumer version there may be no point in having this in the developer version now that's just a guess on my part but i just don't see them taken away or i can't even think of any reason why they would take it away next frank looks to his right side where we see ruby for the first time in flesh she kind of looks like she's wearing a leather jacket or something and it kind of fits in with her skill of being a thief and she has this kind of cat burglar look going on now after this frank loads into the compound map and as soon as he spawns in he opens up the in-game menu and we get a look at the new ui style for that menu it then proceeds to move over to the right side of the map and we see a huge change here so instead of the big white open space that you'd be used to on the compound map now we have a bunch of tents and other large objects like sonar panels and crates and stuff like that this creates loads more cover and that section of the map which should change up some of the dynamics on the compound map this is on top of the new spawn locations that we already knew were coming for both compound and the bunker map too which they show off a little bit later on we also see here that the red enemy player names are gone instead they've been replaced by the red arrows or red chevrons if you if you prefer we saw these in the last t-stream but in case you missed that there you go so then after the match ends we get a quick look at the after-match summary as a new summary tab appears alongside the other five now the scoreboard is incorporated into the new menu rather than being its own separate page like it is now we see how the attackers and defenders fared on the left side of this summary space and on the right we see a large panel which is empty and that's titled earnings now then to the right of this there is another smaller panel also titled earnings and this one shows you how much xp and crypto you've earned in that match so it's going to be interesting to see what that first earning panels will display finally on the bottom right of the summary space we see an unlocks panel and all of these are empty of course as we all know you don't earn anything for playing in private matches so we're not going to see anything there next frank picks the new maps tab that appeared above and replaced the molds tab from the previous menu now this tab shows a large portraits of the map and the host then selects the brand new hanger map and we see for the first time that the hanger map takes place in the uk now this brings the total number of uk maps to four and it's interesting that both the map and the new contractor are both from the uk now i don't want to talk too much about the new map hanger because we already covered this in previous video and the gameplay kind of speaks for itself really so if you want to watch all this i'll have the link in the description that you can check it out for yourself all i say about hanger is that it's the first daytime map which is actually kind of ironic considering it's coming with operation nightfall it's quite large it has interiors and exteriors and it also has a cool skybridge next we see the devs go to the bunker map and we see a new spawn location here which is right in the middle area behind the caged fence area and i hope this replaces the current middle area laptop spawn on this map because that is hard as hell to defend now there's not much as to talk about on this map that i could see and then for the rest of you know that's kind of all there is to talk about in terms of what we were shown that i could see anyway now there's a lot of questions raised after all of this like when will operation nightfall actually release will it be free or will it be paid or will it be some of it free like the maps and the guns and some of it paid like ruby and cosmetics like it has been all along is this the first operation of mani will this update include a bunch of much requested fixes too stuff like you know stuff like that now keep in mind this was just a 20 minute tease frank never actually addressed all the stuff we were seeing on the screen they're basically putting on the nipple clamps right on us you know clamping them on nice and tight giving them a twist and you know just daring us to say the safe word but you know we're not going to not going to not yet now i was restreaming this live when it was shown and some of the first contact entertainment devs popped into the trash including hess barber himself and he met a comment that we've learned more concrete info about this updates in a few sleeps so it sounds like days rather than weeks going by what he said but you know hess he likes to keep things vague so of course take that with some salt and that's about it for this video lads and ladies get in that comment section and let me know what you think all about this and share your theories and your speculations and all that good stuff and before i end this video let me give a quick thank you to my patreon supporters i know i haven't been as active on this channel lately thanks to becoming a dad so feel free to cancel your patreon until the channel is back on its face if you would like i wouldn't mind that at all don't feel guilty or whatever and again thank you very much now if you want to help me out in other ways then please consider doing all that usual shite with the likes and the shares and all that and i'll see you in the next one so bye for now


So the mechanics support to the mission or to the units is they're the ones that do the work. So right now we're in Gage Town, Canada. What I'm doing is I'm backing the rear with a small detachment for a motor element. So essentially what happens is smaller parts, lights, wiper blades, small things like that can be done in a field with the contact trucks, bigger things, windshields, drive shafts, stuff like that, they come down to our shop, we fix them, turn them around, send them back out. We've done AC compressors in vehicles which includes recovering all the AC refrigerant out of the vehicles. They've done windshields. After the last time we were up here when they blew the windows out with the guns, we prepared and we brought up some windshields, otherwise we wouldn't have done it. We just happened to do it. We had the windows and it was a learning experience for a lot of the Joe's that we have because they haven't done that before. So it was a good learning curve. What do I like the most? Learning different things.  It's a mix in a motor pool, you know what I mean? Everybody learns something from somebody else. So that's why I like being a mechanic and a guard.

hey mr.


of guests. Therefore, it's now time for member statements, the member from the Elgin Middlesex of London. Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. This week marks National Palliative Care Week with the theme of hospice palliative care first. This is an annual Awareness Week organized by the Canadian Hospice Palliative Care Association. The purpose of this week is to bring awareness and education about end of life care in Ontario. There are still many myths that surround palliative care in Ontario and this year's campaign is to dispel many of those myths. Palliative care is really about focusing on improving the quality of life for an individual and taking a holistic approach to focus on pain and symptom management. In my writing, Elgin Hospice Palliative Care Collaborative and other organizations have been working over the last few years to not only bring awareness to palliative care in Elgin County and St. Thomas, but also to create a residential hospice in the area. The need for a residential hospice does not exist and is my hope that the government is listening to the local concerns from my writing. In 2014, the Ontario's Auditor General highlighted the dismal state of palliative care services in Ontario which resulted in inequitable access of palliative care, inefficient use of funding and a patchwork of varying services and standards across the province. Health quality in Ontario has estimated that only about 30% of patients get the palliative care they should. This need will only grow as the population ages. Research shows that access to palliative care approach is better care not only for patients but for the family. It reduces that stress on the patient's family, improves quality of life and patient satisfaction and places less of a burden on caregivers. I want to thank each and every health care professional that works within palliative care. Your work is not easy and I commend you for what you do and your dedication to our health care system. Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. Thank you. Further member's statements? The member from Windsor to come see? Thank you, Speaker. As you know, we'll soon be celebrating Nursing Week in Ontario. Down in Windsor and Essex County, the RNA has already recognized the efforts of one exceptional nurse, Mary Lynn Hosel, as this year's recipient of the lowest fairly nurse of the year community service award. This award, named after the late nurse, mentor and advocate, honors someone who has demonstrated a commitment to serving the community through excellence in patient care. Ms. Hosel has been nursing for more than 30 years. She's done it all from medical, surgical, pediatrics, telemetry and ambulatory care. Years ago, Speaker, Mary Lynn lost a daughter, Holly, to sudden death, sudden infant death syndrome. There were no SIDS bereavement groups in our region at that time, so she went to the States, got the training, came home and started a SIDS chapter to assist other parents get through the grieving process. She's been a volunteer manager and trainer for several hockey teams, a coach and team manager for the Amherstburg Soccer Association, and she's busy these days with the Merrick League, helping those with physical and intellectual challenges enjoy their time in the baseball field. Mary Lynn Hosel is described as kind, fun, hardworking, dedicated and a compassionate nurse. She loves her job and the people she works with. Her greatest joy, Speaker, comes from her patients. You'll find her at the Willette campus of our Windsor Regional Hospital. The annual award allows Windsor area nurses to recognize someone who goes above and beyond and also to honor the legacy of Lois Fairley, who had an immeasurable impact on so many lives in our region. So Speaker, from the Ontario legislature, congratulations to Mary Lynn Hosel, our nurse of the year in Windsor in 2010. Thank you. For the members from Newmarket Aurora. Well thank you, Mr. Speaker. On April the 28th, I was honored to attend the National Day of Morning Ceremony in my riding of Newmarket Aurora organized by QP905. Members of the community gathered to show their respect and remember all those who have died or have been injured simply because they went off to work. QP905 has created a beautiful memorial rock garden with cascading water at its headquarters in Newmarket. It's such a moving location, Mr. Speaker, that members of the community stop by to add small rocks to the garden with the names of their loved ones who have died in workplace accidents written on them. Mr. Speaker, I doubt there's anyone here in this house who hasn't been touched in some way by a workplace death or injury. My father worked in manufacturing and I heard too many horror stories about friends and colleagues who had died or been injured at work. The National Day of Morning is not only a day to remember and honor those lives lost or workers injured due to a workplace tragedy, but also a day to renew the commitment to improve health and safety in the workplace and prevent further injuries, illnesses and deaths. I offer my sympathies to all those who've lost a loved one in a workplace accident and to those who suffer ongoing injury or illness as a result of poor work environments. And I offer a heartfelt thank you to QP905 for hosting this moving event. Thank you. So the member from Nipissing. Thank you, Speaker. Organized insurance fraud is a serious problem that impacts the cost of insurance for all consumers. It's estimated to cost upwards of $1 billion in Ontario alone. A recent undercover investigation widely televised revealed staff at professional clinics encouraging and counseling undercover investigators to commit fraud. It's shocking to see how some professionals who should be protecting accident victims are instead encouraging the undercover investigators to lie so they can submit phony forms and collect insurance payments for services never rendered. A recent insurance association survey found that 69% of respondents believe there is fraud in the Ontario auto system. This systemic fraud is being carried out by those who skirt the law and result in higher premiums for consumers. It is unfair to honest law abiding Ontarians who play by the rules. It hits all of us in the pocket books, Speaker, and as much as 10 to 15% of injury payouts are fraudulent. I urge the government to take real action to truly attack the root cause of this issue. On the organized auto insurance fraud front, reforms are needed to deliver benefits to injured claimants and not only service providers. Thank you, Speaker. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I raise today on a little bit of a sad note. In my constituency office I have Grant Buck, Vicky Arsenault, and Cindy Haddo who are there. Today I rise to recognize a really big part of my puzzle and that's Claire Prashaw. She's my executive assistant that I have here and this is her last week that she's going to be spending with me at Queen's Park. She's moving on. She's an amazing woman.  His name is Cruz. I've often played with Cruz in my office, thrown popcorns, played a couple of puzzle games, and he really likes my exploding washroom that I have in my office. I have grown to not only respect Claire but really love Claire. When I first got here I was a little rough around the edges. Claire molded me into what I am here today. She actually was on me for the last four and a half years to actually get into the gym. I've been at the gym now, Mr. Speaker, for the last eight weeks and it's thanks to Claire, but she's moving on. So her project with me is done. I really, when I sat down and we had a chat with Claire, there were many people that came up to me and they said, you know, why are you choosing Claire? And my simple response to them was, if she's good enough for Jack Layton, she's damn well good enough for Mike Mantha.  I know you're sitting at your desk. I love you to death. You are my best friend that I've had here for a very long time. Good luck with your endeavors and you're always welcome at Suite 160 to come for a hug. Thank you. You told me I was your best friend. Members, David's the member from York Southwest. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise in the house today to remember the over 1000 fallen Italian workers who have lost their lives building our province. Last April 28th and the national day of mourning for workers who have been killed or injured as a result of work, over 500 people, including myself and several members of this legislature, gathered at Toronto's Villa Colombo Memorial Gardens to pay tribute to the victims of workplace accidents. There is now a permanent Italian fallen workers memorial at this site consisting of 11 metal columns engraved with the almost 1000 names of the victims, which will forever remind us of these lives that were taken too soon. The Italian fallen workers memorial is the culmination of a six-year effort to formally recognize the enormous sacrifices of Italian workers in Ontario's construction and industrial development for more than a century. Many of them came here, Mr. Speaker, to Sault Ste. Marie, to Toronto, to work in the mines, the hydro projects, the canals, the railways, the roads, bridges, subways, and skyscrapers. Through the committed work of volunteer researchers led by the project leader, Mr. Marino Topan, the committee continues to uncover the names of victims of workplace fatalities of Italian origin. I wish to thank Mr. Marino Topan for his tenacity, the entire committee, the volunteers, and the donors for making sure that future generation know about the price paid by their fathers and grandfathers in building our beautiful province. Thank you. Thank you for the member, same as the member for Lanark, from Lanark, that's an attitude. Very good speaker. Thank you, Speaker. Speaker, I'm glad the Minister of Children and Youth Services is here as well. Speaker, I was both astonished and disturbed when I was informed that the partnership between my local school board and the Cordic Treatment Program was arbitrarily terminated. The Cordic Treatment Program helps at-risk youth gain foundational skills they need to return and thrive in the classroom, and has helped over 600 students and is a model of success. The Cordic Program is a private company which receives its funding via student referrals to their program. However, it was revealed this week during Children's Mental Health Week that the funding for this successful treatment program has ended, and the funds will instead be spent by another mental health agency to cover its operating deficit. They are balancing the agency's budgets on the backs of at-risk children. This is atrocious and shameful and happening in Ontario. But what is also disturbing, Speaker, is that the director of the Upper Canada District School Board, Mr. Swila, and the mental health agencies refused to meet with either myself or the Cordic Program director to find a solution. Speaker, I'll continue to fight to keep this treatment and therapy available for the children in my writing so that they receive the help they both need and deserve. Thank you. Thank you for their members' statements. The member from Hamilton. Thank you so much, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, last week I had the pleasure of welcoming Premier Nguyen to my writing of Halton. And it was a wonderful visit that gave local residents a chance to speak directly with the Premier. For me, the highlight of the visit was sitting down for a roundtable discussion with our local Downtown Business Improvement Association. Members of the DBIA were able to discuss issues of importance to our community, including transportation, business challenges, and ways to grow the local economy. It was a fantastic conversation and gave everyone there a glimpse of the thriving arts and business communities in our growing town and the dedicated people driving our local economy. It was a great way to share ideas and it really helped to show the DBIA that our government, all the way up to the Premier, is listening. Thanks to the 16-mile photography gallery in Downtown Milton for allowing us to use their beautiful space, the gallery's amazing photo exhibit was shot entirely on mobile phones. And it was amazing to see what can be done with a little talent and cell phones. Mr. Speaker, the meeting was positive and members of the Milton Business Community were very happy with the discussion. Thank you to the Premier for engaging our community and thank you to the Milton DBIA for their valuable contributions. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Thank you for the member students, the members of the Milton Business Community. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. This month marked the 14th annual celebration of the Asian Heritage Month and I rise today to honour and recognise Asian Canadians who have enriched our province, our country with achievements, contribution, and vibrant cultures. Notable Asian Ontarians who have made valuable contribution include Dr. Tak Mak, whose significant work in microbiology, immunologies, has influenced public health worldwide. Jeanne Lam, the first Chinese Canadian woman and the first restaurant tour to receive the Order of Canada for her community work. Raymond Moriyama, international renowned architect, whose designs are recognised locally internationally.

Scarborough Asian Court resident Jonathan Lai, a Starr Batminton athlete and quest for gold recipient and Ways in Choice and award-winning authors. Mr. Speaker, throughout the month of May, Ontarians will have an opportunity to participate in various Asian Heritage Month festivities. This annual celebration has preserved the rich Asian culture and heritage as well as promotes a better understanding between the different cultural groups. At the same time, recognise the Canadian, Asian Canadians, supports Canadian values mutual understanding, respect of diversity and multiculturalism. Mr. Speaker, I'm proud of my Asian heritage and to have a privilege to serve a beautiful riding of Scarborough Asian Court as MPP and to be the first Asian woman to be appointed Deputy Speaker. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Thank you. I thank all members for their statements and snow.
