It’s incredible this horror franchise doesn’t appear more in today’s video games. It has the right blend of gore, horrific atmosphere, and unique characters that seem like a shoe in for a DLC. Kristy Cotton would make a great survivor that fans could relate
In most FPS games — and in battle royale-style games in particular — players who have the high ground have serious advantages. High ground positioning makes it easier to spot enemies, to block their shots using the jutting edge of the terrain and to more easily get headshots against oppone
The game still has very healthy numbers and offers a great free-to-play alternative for people. Will that base stick around once all of the major Fall video game releases start hitting shelves? Well, we'll have to wait and
Every season brings with it a new competitor to the Apex Games, and the upcoming third season is no different. Crypto will be making his entrance, and, though not much is known in regards to his in-game abilities, Respawn did release an animated short giving a glimpse into Crypto's life before his evolut
If possible, coordinate with squadmates to make sure team members don’t arrive to fight the opposing squad one by one, making each player an easy target for a series of consecutive 3v1s, all in the opposing team’s favor. Teams will often have a player standing lookout to spot teammates from specific directions, and sometimes players throw traps if they know the terrain has limited access points, such as a Wattson fence at the end of the zip line that gets a character to the mountain area. Anticipate this, and be prepared to engage in zip line hopping tactics or try to use the traps the squad’s advantage. For instance, a team member playing as Caustic is immune to the damage effects of enemy Caustic gas traps and can still see players through them, so a player playing as Caustic can set off the enemy trap and leverage the low visibility to their advant
Players have mixed feelings about Bangalore’s smoke tactical ability. Sure, it blocks enemies’ visibility as a Banglore heals or resurrects teammates. But it can also can cause issues when a Bangalore player uses it at the wrong time. For example, it can obstruct vision for Bangalore’s own teammates, which in turn can cause confusion as to what's happening around t
This recent controversy is problematic because it reeks of the manipulative practices we have seen from EA. These loot boxes are terrible for consumers, and rather than providing the items directly, encourage consumers to keep buying until they win the items they desire. These loot box mechanics are exactly what has governments up in arms as they seem to promote gambling to the target audience, which can range from underage youth to adu
Respawn has done a good job at spacing out the addition of new weapons and in exchange have added mods that make previously horrible or low-tier guns somewhat usable. Adding new guns changes the game in major ways, as it can change the learning curve of the PS5 game Tips as players have one more gun to become familiar w
While Digital Threat optics alleviate some of these issues, Bloodhound’s Tactical and Ultimate offer far more guarantees that players can understand what's happening in these situations. The character's sonar and detection abilities each let the Bloodhound player see through smoke. This becomes a serious tactical advantage as Bangalore can use the smoke to obscure enemies’ sight, while Bloodhound can see right through this while the enemies struggle to gain their bearings. These overlapping tactics mean these two are a strong pair when playing toget
In total, the pass provided only four new skins, and three of them were unlocked right away at level one. These skins had only the smallest of differences in their paint jobs, leaving most to wonder what the point was of releasing them in the first place. The rest of the items were bland, and in some cases, loot boxes, which frustrate players now more than ever as they do not know what they are receiving and are at the mercy of a random loot table select
As far as weapons, it can be hard to know whether to choose to run with a long-range sniper rifle or a short-distance shotgun before a player hops into battle, so it’s important for a player to know their own strengths and weaknesses with each weapon type as well. A weapon like a G7 Scout can serve both purposes as a player can affix a sniper scope for longer distances or use iron sights for better targeting at range. Many players have success using scope-free sniper rifles Longbows and Triple Takes at close range as w
Most problematic was that the Battle Pass lacked the creative challenges seen in Fortnite , which make acquiring tiers quick and fun. This meant that, in Apex Legends , the only way to level up was to play the game over and over again with no specific plan in mind. The grind was real, the rewards were unappealing, so few bothered to continue as a res
