Battle royale games are seemingly inspired by The Hunger Games . People go into an arena and are forced to survive. One person comes out. Of the battle royale games, The Culling seems to take the most inspiration from the popular book ser
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 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
The island players fight on is riddled with natural disasters. They’ll have to adjust to those as well as watching their backs. The goal in this game is not to be the last man standing. Instead, it’s to get off the island by making it to an evac helicopter. However, the chopper can only save four people. It then becomes a race to make it off the isl
Another unique element to Apex Legends is the ability to revive downed allies. Like other battle royale titles, a player is downed before being killed off and they can hold a shield item in their inventory to prevent players from shooting them to finish them off. Enemies can however, get up close an employ a lethal execution animation (these are also battler royale fists). But even then, players can recover the tags of their downed ally and bring them to a revive point where they can then re-enter the match via a dropship, but without any of their loot. These layers upon layers add so much to the dynamic of the usual die and legend class system go back to the menu style of more punishing battle royale experien
The opponent isn't extremely clear in the image above, but is extremely pronounced in the video. It appears as though the gun and its bullets caused a graphical interference that tricked the player into thinking the opponent somehow disappeared. It's also possible that some lag on the enemy's side contributed to this as well. One common result of lag is that it results in choppy gameplay, which appears to other players as short-distance teleportati
Paradox Interactive is also one of the developers slated for the PC Gaming Show, which means that more footage of Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 will likely be shown. New information about the game has slowly leaked out recently in the form of clan reveals, but there hasn't been much gameplay footage shown...
The sound design in this game is spectacular. Many players insist that you need to play the game with headphones, as you can easily tell what's happening around you. You'll be able to hear footsteps and other audio cues, but perhaps the most important noise you'll ever hear in this game is a shattering so
And in many cases, it's much easier to climb up buildings than you think. With certain techniques, you can actually run short distances up walls, which often enables you to grab ledges and work your way up a building that looked unclimbable. You can also use other familiar tactics, such as jumping on an open door to give you a ledge to step
Representation in entertainment isn't only about the color of the skin or the facial design of a character. Fully fleshing them out as three-dimensional people with a cultural and societal depth that adds to inclusiveness separates those who attempt it and those who commit to it as a development philoso
To _ Dexerto _ ’s credit, the article’s author points out, "[T]his could all be the result of a glitch or a bug, which seems like the likeliest theory, since Apex Legends isn't exactly clean of issues that can cause game-breaking stuff like this to happ
One redditor pointed out that characters in this game are typically more aesthetically clear than they appear in this video, which is certainly true. But this video isn’t particularly high-quality, plus the character is initially running in both the storm and the shadow of the bushes. Their outline is slightly more pronounced once they leave the storm, but as they're still in the shadow, they would still be dark, particularly if the character were using a dark-colored s
One title that has been rumored to appear at Square Enix's conference is Collection of Mana, which is a name that was recently trademarked by the company. The name seems to refer to a localized version of the Seiken Densetsu Collection, which is a Japanese-exclusive title for the Nintendo Switch that contains the first three Mana ga
Finally, there's still a question as to why or how this would manifest out of thin air. As mentioned previously, Apex Legends players frequently experience in-game lag, and it's particularly noticeable in crowded early-game zones such as Supply Ship. It’s possible that this apparent manifestation reflected a lag situation common in the g
