Octane's ultimate ability allows him to throw down a trampoline that can be used by friends or foes and launches people in the air as they come in contact with it. If the person using Octane is strategic and skilled enough it can be used in several ways to create real tactical advantages on the battlefi
Save The Peacekeeper For The Last Round - The Peacekeeper shotgun is rather useless early on in the match (though it can be charged for a stronger shot), but in the final circle, it can be quite dea
The upcoming E3 show has a jacked roster that is filled with some of the most highly-anticipated video games of all time. Screen Rant is here to provide you with the information concerning the games that will definitely be appearing at the event, as well as sharing the rumors and speculation about other titles that could be revea
He's very lucky that it only blew off his legs because a matter of inches could have resulted in him losing much more of his body. Maybe he'll have a counterpart who lost their arms and is introduced as a legend in the game in the fut
A potential leak through datamining has revealed what Apex Legends may look like in the future, with new abilities and a number of Legend characters. These may be old concepts that have not been developed, or they may be far al
CD Projekt Red is hosting a conference during the E3 Coliseum portion of the event but it had previously shown footage of the highly-anticipated Cyberpunk 2077 during the 2018 Xbox E3 pre-show. Cyberpunk 2077 is the company's next big game and is promising to be a huge open-world RPG adventure in a grim science fiction sett
Played strictly in three-player squads across one map (called "Kings Canyon") that supports 60 players total with characters who each have their own unique abilities, right away Apex Legends differentiates itself from the competition. Its class (character) based gameplay that highlights the unique personalities and gear of each character is best compared to Overwatch , and the game also draws its monetization strategy from Blizzard's shooter as well. When it comes to its first-person gunplay however, Apex Legends plays more like Black Ops 4's Blackout mode but with more diverse gameplay and more layers of mechanics and control, including in the game's animati
Octane may be all about the stunts, but it's rooted in understanding that everything great comes at a price. During a match in the Apex Games, he's able to inject himself with a stim that gives him exceptional speed but comes at the loss of losing a little bit of life. This is due to the idea that by injecting himself he's partially doing damage to hims
How do a pair of parents who run a pharmaceutical company not notice their son's issues and help him rectify them? It seems that Octane was just another rich kid who turned the neglect from his parents into an unhealthy addict
Slide (A Lot!) - One of the best ways to quickly traverse an area is to slide (using crouch) down hills - as sliding on a descent is limitless... and super fast - or across an area. It can be key to winning a firefight and the match its
Sometimes mobility is the most powerful mechanic in the game, and the ability to fly up on command to ambush an opponent seems too powerful. There would need to be a daily quest called "This isn't flying, this is falling with style", where you manage to eliminate a number of opponents from the air or shortly after land
That leaves only Anthem , whose global February 22 launch will mark the only proper live-service competitor to Apex Legends . Though Anthem is unquestionably beautiful and has thrilling combat and movement that Crackdown developers ought to take note of, there is the unavoidable fact that it is EA's answer to Destiny , and the online loot-shooter genre Anthem 's obvious source material spawned is marred by a series of hard-to-avoid caveats. It does more to ensure that players won't be locked out of certain time-limited content by providing matchmaking in areas that the Destiny franchise neglects, but (as EA has clearly done its homework) it's difficult to not fear that launch content will prove much more sparse than initially expected, much as it was in both Destiny entr
Mobility with stealth infiltration sounds like a nightmare to unorganized groups. An entire minute of having one’s location revealed is terrible news, especially in the late game. As always, disabling abilities can swing a fight entirely, so this Legend might be far too powerful in a coordinated gr
Apex Legends' game map also includes an emphasis on verticality. There are zip lines in and around the map and its hot spots, and there are balloon launching points that players can zip up to and jet away to other parts of the map. One of the playable characters can even deploy their own zip lines for Competitive Team Tactics the squad. These systems work well with the nicely flowing control scheme and animations of Apex Legends where players can slide down hills or mantle up to high ledges. If you see something, there's usually a way to get there, except for some of the cliff and mountain tops which are out of bounds. Did we mention that top player Legends will be displayed in-game on banners and there's bonus XP for taking out kill lead
