Stephen Baldwin — the father of supermodel Hailey Baldwin and brother of actor Alec Baldwin — has been caught in the middle of an alleged affair with 39-year-old Venezuelan masseuse Ruth Perez Anselmi.

Baldwin, approximately the third most famous Baldwin behind his brother Alec and daughter Hailey, is known for his appearances in films such as Born on the Fourth of July (1989), Posse (1993), Threesome (1994), The Usual Suspects (1995), Bio-Dome (1996), and The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas (2000).

Daily Mail, who is essentially the British version of TMZ, caught Baldwin visiting Anselmi at her apartment on Wilshire Boulevard in Hollywood neighborhood of Los Angeles, California.

Stephen’s daughter Hailey, who he had with Brazilian graphic designer Kennya Deodato Baldwin in 1996, is famously married to internationally known pop star Justin Bieber.

Baldwin, 52, has been married to Kennya Deodato Baldwin for 28 years, as the pair got married in the year 1990.

via Daily Mail:

The born-again Christian, whose daughter Hailey is married to pop superstar Justin Bieber, has been meeting regularly with Latin American beauty Ruth Perez Anselmi for sex during his business trips to Los Angeles.

In fact, DailyMailTV caught Baldwin visiting Anselmi’s posh three-bedroom apartment on Wilshire Boulevard in Hollywood twice in recent weeks.

A friend of Anselmi’s has also revealed that the New York-based actor – who married Brazilian wife Kennya in 1990 and regularly gushes about his marriage – has been seeing the Venezuelan brunette for more than two years after meeting her at a physical therapy school in LA.

As for Stephen, his most recent appearance was in the 2016 film Magi.

Stephen and Kennya’s daughter Hailey is one of the most recognizable models in the world, despite being just 21-years-old (at the time of this writing).

Laurie Softley, a 34-year-old music teacher in England, has been charged with gross misconduct after she allegedly drank alcohol with and stripped for separate 17-year-old students. Additionally, Softley is accused of having sex with one of the teenage boys.

Softley, who was teaching at Ecclesbourne School in Duffield, was married. According to reports, despite being caught with two separate teens, Softley was let off with a warning before she had a sexual relationship with another student a few years later.

One of the alleged victims provided the following statement in court:

“She poured us both wine. At some point we kissed. We continued to kiss and took off our tops. We went upstairs to her bedroom. Miss Softley took a condom from her bedside table drawer and we had sex.

The second victim provided a similar statement:

“She took her shirt off. I saw her topless. I believe she took off her trousers because I performed a sex act on her.'”

As for why there has been such a significant increase in instances of teachers having sexual relationships with students, researchers believe that technology is to blame.

According to a report from the Texas Education Association, smartphones make easy for teachers to privately text and talk with students and also make it possible for teachers and students to share explicit images.

SESAME (Stop Educator Sexual Abuse Misconduct & Exploitation) President Terri Miller echoed that sentiment, stating “before cell phones, we knew who our kids were talking to” but today, “kids have their own phones, they’re taking them to bed, and parents need to watch more.”

Softley is just the latest teacher to be charged for inappropriate conduct. Over the course of just a few months, educators across the country were arrested for entering into an inappropriate relationship with their students, Tennessee teacher Janet Smothers, LaToya Parker, Florida teacher Caroline Lawson, 26-year-old Allyson Moran and Katherine Ross Ridenhour were all arrested on similar charges. A woman named Kayla Sprinkles was arrested in North Carolina for similar sexual crimes.

The list goes on to include 22-year-old Oklahoma science teacher Hunter Day, 28-year-old teacher Megan Kotarski, 23-year-old history teacher Michelle Schiffer, 29-year-old Alyssia Marie Reddy, special education teacher Jordan Ondish and 28-year-old Samantha Fitzpatrick have all been allegedly carrying on inappropriate relationships with their students.

34-year-old Miranda Nicole Pauley was charged with similar crimes, Nancy Leigh Ann Brann, a former Christian school teacher, was arrested for having sex with a student, Coine Audiat pleaded no contest to having sex with a minor in 2016 and 23-year-old Darci Lake was arrested for an inappropriate relationship. 27-year-old Brittany Zamora from Arizona was arrested on similar charges. Keri Hoffman, 35, was also arrested for an alleged relationship with a student. Similarly, 29-year-old Tiffany Ranweiler-Oblander and 33-year-old Maren Oates were arrested on similar charges.

More recently, 29-year-old Haylie Smart, 25-year-old Alaina Ferguson, and 32-year-old Laura Bucy were charged with similar crimes.

Kate McClure is the New Jersey woman who has been charged with conspiracy and theft by deception for allegedly making up a ploy about homeless man Johnny Bobbitt in an effort to raise money.


Who Is Kate McClure?

Kate McClure, a 28-year-old from Bordentown, New Jersey, has been accused of creating a GoFundMe account for a homeless man — Johnny Bobbitt — based around a fake ploy.

She has been charged with conspiracy and theft by deception.


What Happened?

According to reports, McClure — from Bordentown, New Jersey — and her boyfriend Mark D’Amico allegedly conspired with Bobbitt to create a get-rich-quick scheme.

Back in November of 2017, the 28-year-old McClure and the 39-year-old D’Amico created a GoFundMe page for Bobbitt, claiming that he gave the couple his last $20 to that they could use to buy gas after their car allegedly broke down on Interstate 95 near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The story instantly went viral and the GoFundMe reached over $400,000. Additionally, the trio began appearing on daytime talk shows such as NBC’s Today.

However, in August 2018, Bobbitt sued the couple, claiming that they were withholding the money from him. McClure and D’Amico responded by saying they did so as they worried he would use the money to buy drugs.

Now, the story has taken yet another unsuspected turn, as the trio are expected to face charges of conspiracy and theft by deception for working together to create the ruse.

According to various reports, McClure and D’Amico turned themselves in to authorities on Wednesday, November 14. However, Bobbit remains at large.

NBC Philadelphia was the first to obtain the official criminal complaint:

Investigators say the three deliberately prevented donors for their GoFundMe campaign from gaining information “that would affect their judgment about solicited contribution to that fundraising effort.”

At first, the account led to appearances for Bobbitt and McClure on national TV programs. But it turned into a dispute over the money. Bobbitt accused the couple of dipping into the funds and using them as a “personal piggy bank” to bankroll a lifestyle they couldn’t afford.

Bobbitt later sued the couple over mismanagement of the funds and a judge ordered sworn statements to determine what happened to the cash, which Bobbitt’s attorney, Chris Fallon, said had disappeared.

The couple denied any wrongdoing and accused Bobbitt of spending $25,000 in less than two weeks last year on drugs as well as paying for overdue legal bills and sending money to family. The couple’s lawyer, Ernest Badway, later said Bobbitt had gotten about $200,000. But Fallon said his client had received only about $75,000.

At the time of this writing, McClure and D’Amico’s lawyer had no comment.

In September, we reported on the death of Joseph Little, an 18-year-old Phi Gamma Delta pledge who died on August 29 after suffering a seizure in his College Station apartment.

Now — after suspending the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity until 2022 for allegations of hazing, drug use, and alcohol violations — Texas A&M is further addressing how they plan to implement “culture changes” to their Greek life organizations.

Christine Gravelle, the Director of Student Affairs at Texas A&M, said that in order to bring about a culture change to the university’s fraternities and sororities, they will be forming committees, hosting webinars, hosting dialogues, bringing in speakers such the ‘Love, Mom and Dad’ event.

“I hope they took away that we can work together to make some changes and have it be a safe environment for all of our students,” Gravelle said.

As for Phi Gamma Delta — the fraternity that Little was joining — they were suspended by the Student Organization Accountability Board until January 2022. The terms of their suspension means that the fraternity cannot participate in university activities. Furthermore, the fraternity is not allowed to use university facilities.

Texas A&M University is just the latest major American college to bring a massive overhaul to their Greek life system.

Schools and universities all across the country have installed sweeping and systematic changes to their Greek life organizations in an effort to thwart the alcohol and hazing-related incidents that have been occurring at fraternities over the decades.

‘Battlefield V’ Review Round-Up: Should You Buy BF5?

0
0

The latest entry in the acclaimed Battlefield franchise has arrived as the highly-anticipated Battlefield V hits stores on Friday, November 16.

In the lead up to the game, DICE and EA explained that Battlefield V will focus extensively on party-based features and mechanics, scarcity of resources, and removing “abstractions” from game mechanics to increase realism.

Additionally, the newest game in the franchise has an expanded focus on player customization through the new Company system, where players will be able to create multiple characters with various cosmetic and weapon options.

Furthermore, the game will feature several new multiplayer modes, including the “continuous” campaign mode “Tides of War”, “Firestorm”, and “Grand Operations”. The “Firestorm” will be the Battlefield version of Battle Royale.

But should you spend you hard-earned money on Battlefield V? Read all of the best reviews on the internet below and make up your mind!


Battlefield V Review: ★★★★★

Stunning visuals and traditionally excellent and thorough gameplay make Battlefield V a worthy addition to one of the gaming world’s most celebrated first-person shooter franchises.

GameSpot:

“As of now, it feels as if Battlefield V is a variation on a well-established theme. It maintains the series tradition of grand spectacle with incredible sound design, impactful weaponry, and large-scale multiplayer chaos.”

Gaming Trend:

“After spending quite a while with the game, I’m blown away that there’s still so much to discover. With dozens of collectibles to find in the single-player campaign, a seemingly-unlimited number of weekly challenges, and the Tides of War looming large on the horizon, Battlefield V is the best this series has ever been, and easily the best FPS of the season.”

Digital Trends:

“Battlefield V is a fine World War II shooter and it has the potential to turn into a great one with a few updates and the addition of its post-launch modes, but with Black Ops 4 providing such a rich and engaging competitive experience and last year’s Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus offering a better (and more upfront) Nazi-shooting campaign, there’s little reason for this game to be your first choice. That’s partially a testament to the strength of its competition, but Battlefield V fails to impress the same way Battlefield 1 did. By all means, give it a try if you’re a fan of DICE’s previous work, but know that you’ll have to put up with some pretty glaring faults.”

PC Games N:

“Battlefield V delivers the series’ finest single-player campaign yet, painting the horror of war from rarely seen perspectives. That tension carries through to the multiplayer, which has been tuned to hammer home your vulnerability in a firefight.”

CG Magazine:

“Despite the bad press at the start, I have a lot of faith in DICE as a developer and they have delivered a fantastic shooter this year with Battlefield V after listening to their community and taking their feedback seriously.”

Polygon:

At their most effective, successful World War II tankers famously fought at only two speeds: full power or full stop. Battlefield 5’s multiplayer plays similarly. It is one of the fastest military shooters to be released in years. The experience left me breathless at times. After a full weekend of play, all I want is more. But to buy into Battlefield 5 in 2018 is to accept a number of flaws and compromises. With multiple game modes still in development, including a battle royale mode that is still months from being available, Battlefield 5 is a work in progress.


 

Jemel Roberson Dead: Police Officer Who Killed Roberson Identity

The police officer who shot and killed 26-year-old security guard Jemel Roberson around 4 a.m. on Sunday, November 11, has still not been identified as of Thursday, November 15.

The officer — who has been confirmed to be a white male — worked for the Midlothian police department for seven years and is a member of the South Suburban Emergency Response Team, officials said.

On Monday, a federal lawsuit was filed against the Midlothian police officer, alleging that responding officer used excessive force when he shot Roberson. In addition to the police department, the village of Midlothian was also named in the suit.

According to reports, Roberson, who was working security at the Manny’s Blue Room Bar in Robbins, Illinois, was shot and killed by a Midlothian police officer who was responding to a shooting that occurred inside of the bar earlier in the night.

Witnesses say that after a man began open firing inside of the bar, Roberson returned fire before apprehending the suspect and restraining him until police arrived. When police arrived, they shot Roberson, who was later pronounced dead at a nearby hospital.

“Everybody was screaming out, ‘Security!’ He was a security guard. And they still did their job, and saw a black man with a gun, and basically killed him,” said Adam Harris, who witnessed the shooting.

At this time, the Cook County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the original shooting inside the bar, while the Illinois State Police Public Integrity Task Force is investigating the shooting and killing of Roberson.

GoFundMe page has been set up to help cover Roberson’s funeral costs. At the time of this writing, over $4000 have been raised.

The GoFundMe page created for Roberson’s funeral says that he “was a young man who was greatly loved by all who knew him.”

Dartmouth College Faces $70 Million Lawsuit Over Sexual Abuse Professors

Seven women, both current and former students of Dartmouth College, filed a $70 million lawsuit against the school for sexual assault, harassment, and discrimination that they said they experienced from three prominent professors who, according to the suit, turned a human behavior research department “into a 21st-century Animal House.”

According to the Daily News, the lawsuit was filed by six graduate and one undergrad on Thursday, November 15. All of them were students of Dartmouth’s Department of Psychology and Brain Sciences.


What Happened?

The women accuse college administrators of turning a blind eye to the abuse for over a decade, despite knowing that the professors–Todd Heatherton, William Kelley and Paul Whalen–“leered at, groped, sexted, intoxicated and even raped female students,” according to the lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Concord. The former students said the three professors “perpetuated an alcohol-saturated ‘party culture'” by conducting lab meetings at bars, inviting students to “hot tub parties” at their private residences, and by suggesting undergraduates use cocaine as part of a class demonstration on addiction.

The lawsuit, which seeks $70 million in damages, says this behavior went back as far as 2002, and accuses the college administration of looking the other way for more than 16 years, the New York Times reported.

All the accused professors have left the school this late spring and early summer amid an investigation.

Annemarie Brown, Andrea Courtney, Kristina Rapuano, Marissa Evans, Sasha Brietzke, Vassiki Chauhan and an anonymous plaintiff identified as Jane Doe are bringing the lawsuit on behalf of every current and former female undergraduate and graduate student enrolled in Dartmouth’s psychology and brain sciences department between March 31, 2015, and the date of judgment.

They have brought six claims against the institution, including Title IX violations to include sexual harassment and gender discrimination, as well as claims of breach of fiduciary duty and negligent supervision and retention under New Hampshire law.

The suit claims that Heatherton, who served as the Department Chair from 2004-2005, was the founder of the “predatory club,” and had sexual harassment complaints filed against him as early as 2002 that involved multiple instances of groping. Additionally, sexual harassment and discrimination complaint was filed against Heatherton and Kelley in 2005. The school failed to take any disciplinary action either time.

The professors seemed to make it clear that complaining about the “party culture” environment would come with consequences–the lawsuit claims that during the 2010-2011 school year, Whalen told students that one woman’s attempts to file a complaint against him had “backfired” and she lost steam in her career.

“You don’t bite the hand that feeds you,” Whalen allegedly warned the students.


Dartmouth ‘Applaud The Students’ Courage’

In an email to the college community Thursday morning, Dartmouth President Phil Hanlon said that while “sexual misconduct and harassment have no place at Dartmouth,” the college disputes the allegations in the suit.

“We applaud the courage displayed by members of our community within (the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences) who brought the misconduct allegations to Dartmouth’s attention last year,” Hanlon wrote. “And we remain open to a fair resolution of the students’ claims through an alternative to the court process. However, we respectfully, but strongly, disagree with the characterizations of Dartmouth’s actions in the complaint and will respond through our own court filings.”

The lawsuit against Dartmouth was filed by the law firm Sanford Heisler Sharp. Dartmouth is accused of reinforcing the idea of possible retaliation, as the women claim that the school encouraged them to continue working with their harassers so as not to be expelled or placed on academic probation.

Dartmouth also announced in October 2017 that it was conducting a sexual misconduct investigation of the men, who were tenured professors in the school’s psychology and brain sciences department. That inquiry concluded that the professors should be stripped of their tenure and lose their jobs. All three were allowed to either resign or retire.

Heather ton previously admitted to acting “unprofessionally while intoxicated” upon announcing his retirement in June 2018.

Who Is Kim Porter?

She was born as Kimberly Porter on December 16, 1971 in Columbus, Georgia. She was a former model and longtime girlfriend of Sean “Diddy” Combs. Porter was a member of the girl group Girl 6. Porter had three children — a son, Christian, and twins D’Lila Star and Jessie James, with Diddy. Porter also has a son with Al B. Sure named Quincy, who was named after the legendary Quincy Jones.

She attended and graduated from Colombus High School in 1988 and went straight to the robust city of Atlanta to pursue her longtime dream of becoming a model. Standing at 5’10 inches, her career blew up when she appeared on cover pages such as Elle and Marie Claire.

Porter also took part in acting as well, showing up in movies such as “Single Ladies, “Mama I Want To Sing,” “Wicked, Wicked Games” “The Brothers,” and “The System Within.”

She did not reveal much of her private life, but one thing for sure was that she had a son, Quincy, from a relationship with producer Al B Sure, who she met in Atlanta. In addition to that, she also has a son Christian and twin daughters, D’Lila Star and Jessie James with rapper P. Diddy.

Here’s a list describing that.

Amy Wilkins, a female associate professor of sociology at the University of Colorado, has been placed on leave due to accusations of sexual harassment and inappropriate conduct towards CU Boulder students over the past decade.

According to a report from The Chronicle of Higher Education, throughout the years, Wilkins allegedly sent students “intensely personal text messages” and “requested to meet off-campus.” As a result of the allegations, Wilkins was placed on paid administrative leave and banned from the University of Colorado Boulder property on Monday, October 1.

In addition to the paid administrative leave and ban, Wilkins was ordered not to make contact with seven specific people while University of Colorado officials and authorities investigate.

At this time, Wilkins is being investigated for allegations of sexual misconduct and sexual harassment of students, as she is accused of “pressurizing students to engage in inappropriate sexual conduct and conversations.”

The Chronicle of Higher Education reports that one student, who met Wilkins in 2006, accused Wilkins of kissing her and said the relationship “intensely skyrocketed” thereafter.

via The Chronicle of Higher Education:

According to sources close to the investigation, Wilkins is being investigated for sexual misconduct and harassment of people she supervised, in part by pressuring students to engage in inappropriate sexual conduct and conversations.

Interviews with a half-dozen former sociology students at Boulder paint a picture of a scholar who enjoyed having a coterie of fans who shared her interest in issues surrounding sexuality and gender.

Wilkins’s position, from 2014 to 2016, as director of the graduate program in the sociology department, gave her power over students’ teaching assignments and academic progress. So even if they weren’t direct advisees, students couldn’t afford to cross her, the students said.

According to the CU Boulder website, Wilkin’s substantive areas of interest focus on intersectional inequalities (gender, race, class, and sexuality), identities, youth, and the transition to adulthood. Additionally, her university bio states that her research has appeared in Gender & Society, Signs, and Social Psychology Quarterly, and her book, Goths, Wannabes, and Christians: Gender, Race, Class, and Sexuality in Youth Cultures was published in 2008 by the University of Chicago Press.

As for why there has been such a significant increase in instances of teachers having sexual relationships with students, researchers believe that technology is to blame.

According to a report from the Texas Education Association, smartphones make easy for teachers to privately text and talk with students and also make it possible for teachers and students to share explicit images.

SESAME (Stop Educator Sexual Abuse Misconduct & Exploitation) President Terri Miller echoed that sentiment, stating “before cell phones, we knew who our kids were talking to” but today, “kids have their own phones, they’re taking them to bed, and parents need to watch more.”

The Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity at West Virginia University has been suspended after a student was knocked unconscious due to a fall down the fraternity house’s stairs. In addition to the fall, reports indicate that it took over two hours for fraternity members to call emergency services.

According to April Kaull, a spokeswoman for West Virginia University, the injured student has been identified as 22-year-old senior finance major David Rusko. Rusko, from Uniontown, West Virginia, was taken to Ruby Memorial Hospital in Morgantown and was placed in the intensive care unit.

Additionally, Kaull said that WVU police officers found that more than two hours passed between Rusko’s fall and a call made by fraternity members to 911.

via Pittsburgh Post-Gazette:

WVU’s statement said an initial university police investigation centered “on what happened in the time between Rusko’s fall [about 9 p.m.] and a call made by fraternity members to 911.”

“Based on the evidence found concerning that two-hour period, the University felt compelled to issue the individual interim suspensions, as well as place the SAE chapter on interim suspension,” the WVU statement said.

It said SAE’s national office was notified and imposed its own cease-and-desist order and said additional members could face disciplinary action. The fraternity can appeal the suspension, officials said.

Corey Farris, the Dean Of Students at West Virginia University, released the following statement abut Rusko’s condition:

“We are a family here at West Virginia University. I am deeply disappointed in the apparent actions and inactions of these students, and the decisions that were made. As our investigation moves ahead, we remain very concerned about David’s condition. He will continue to be in our prayers.”

The suspension of Sigma Alpha Epsilon comes just two months after five fraternities — Alpha Sigma Phi, Kappa Alpha Order, Phi Sigma Kappa, Sigma Chi, and Theta Chi — were banned from campus for at least a decade. Similarly, in February, the university placed a freeze on all fraternity activities while school officials debated the possible future of Greek life WVU.

West Virginia University is just the latest major American college to bring a massive overhaul to their Greek life system.

Schools and universities all across the country have installed sweeping and systematic changes to their Greek life organizations in an effort to thwart the alcohol and hazing-related incidents that have been occurring at fraternities over the decades.

Christina Cabral dunkin donuts owner

Facebook

Christina Cabral has been identified as the Dunkin’ Donuts owner in the shocking video that shows Cabral calling the police on 46-year-old black woman Tirza Wilbon White.

In a video posted to Facebook, White claims that Cabral called the police on her after she and another “brown-skinned” customer were told by Cabral that they could not use the free WiFi unless they purchased something.

When White inquired as to why she was being kicked out of the Dunkin’ Donuts, Cabral responded by saying that the location has had a number of recent incidents involving loiterers, including fights.

“I don’t know what company you own but as a franchisee I do get to make my own rules and that’s posting signs,’ Cabral said. ‘Because I need to ensure safety to my customers and I’m not saying you’re a problem but I’ve had problems in the past with customers. They hang out here for eight hours, they get into fights,” Cabral can be heard saying in the video, explaining her decision.

White believes she is a victim of racial profiling.

When a police officer arrived, he confirmed that the department had dealt with loiterers at the location recently. Additionally, the officer said that if White did not leave the property, he would be forced to issue her a summons.

White has since claimed that she has received calls from the Dunkin’ Donuts corporate offices to apologize, however, she has not accepted due to “other incidences of social injustice.”

EA

The newest installment of the in the acclaimed Battlefield franchise has arrived as the long-awaited Battlefield V finally hit stores on Friday, November 16.


Battlefield V Review: ★★★★★

Stunning visuals and traditionally excellent and thorough gameplay make Battlefield V a worthy addition to one of the gaming world’s most celebrated first-person shooter franchises.


A follow-up to 2016’s Battlefield 1Battlefield V focuses on party-based features and mechanics, scarcity of resources, and the removal of “abstractions” from game mechanics to increase realism.

Additionally, Battlefield V has an expanded focus on player customization through its new Company system that allows players to create multiple characters with various appearances and weapon options.

Furthermore, the game will feature several new multiplayer modes, including the “continuous” campaign mode “Tides of War”, “Firestorm”, and “Grand Operations”. The “Firestorm” mode is essentially the Battlefield version of Battle Royale.

Stunning visuals and traditionally excellent and thorough gameplay make Battlefield V a worthy addition to one of the gaming world’s most celebrated first-person shooter franchises.


Battlefield V Online Game Modes Breakdown

Conquest

You and your squad must fight point-to-point in 64-player Conquest mode, working to gain control of key locations on a massive multiplayer map.

Conquest Assault

Every inch of ground becomes precious as a line of capture points focuses the battle into all-out firefights in Conquest Assault mode, reworked and improved from Battlefield 1. In a twist on Conquest, using a classic majority rule set, your strategic choices are brought to the forefront as attacking and defending forces are drawn to a single objective at a time.

Frontlines

A mix of Conquest, Rush, and Battlefield™ 4’s Obliteration mode. Frontlines pits teams in a fight for chained control points in a tug-of-war. Both teams fight for one flag at a time, and once this objective is captured, the action moves on to the next. Conquering the last flag opens the enemy base, and then certain objectives suddenly become vulnerable to planted explosives– a new addition in Frontlines for Battlefield V.

Domination

A scaled-down version of Conquest, this packs in just as much infantry-focused action. Two teams battle over ownership of multiple objectives. Owning at least half of these flags will cause the enemy team to start losing respawns. Control more than half, and your enemy team will bleed respawns even faster.

Team Deathmatch

This is Battlefield pure and simple. Work closely with your squad to dispatch the most enemies of the two infantry teams and victory is yours. Use the new Fortifications to change the face of the battle.

Airborne

Spearhead a Grand Operation by replicating the feats of WW2 airborne soldiers. Brave a storm of fire and steel as you parachute down and mount an offensive. Each team gets a set number of tickets that represent a player’s respawn, where each death drains the total number of tickets until there is a winner.

Breakthrough

One side will push to seize all control points in a sector, and to force the enemy to retreat. Each engagement in Breakthrough is a frantic fight to capture sectors as an attacker and, for the defense, on-the-fly planning to keep the opposition at bay.

Final Stand

A nail-biting, tie-breaking mode, Final Stand appears depending on how well your team performed in the first three days of a Grand Operation. If the two factions are evenly-matched after days of fighting, you’ll find yourself armed with depleted ammo and no respawns, in this mode to determine the winner
