The Peacekeeper, sadly, is now a care package weapon in Season 6. This means that it’s a little bit rarer to wield from game to game, but it’s still as powerful as ever. When calculating where weapons fall in a tier-based list it’s important to factor in how easily obtainable a weapon is. It’s useless if a weapon is meta-breaking if it can only be used in very select instances. It comes with 15 special shotgun shells, but with the power the Peacekeeper is packing, that’s going to be more than enough to dismantle your f
As mentioned earlier, the meta in apex e district map Legends that came along with Season 6 was a shift in power for light machine guns. The weapon that benefited most from this change has certainly got to be the Devot
The Volt is the latest addition to Apex Legends in Season 6, alongside the new legend known as Rampart. When looking at the weapon selection in Apex Legends it should come as no surprise that the newest gun is a small machine gun. It uses energy ammo and is a fully automatic weapon. You may be wondering how the Volt ascended to the top tier of guns so quickly and the reason for that is its ultra-fast TTK or time-to-kill. Its headshot damage is also twice that of the other top-tier SMG, the R
Now when I say fall damage I’m not talking about falling into an endless pit. That’s been a staple of gaming since the days of Super Mario Bros . While I don’t necessarily enjoy that either, I understand that’s it’s there because most game designers don’t want to recreate an entire planet’s surface. Sometimes it’s easier to put in a dark, foggy pit and leave its deadliness up to your imaginat
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is often touted as the pioneer among all battle royale video games these days as it popularized one of the most popular modes of gameplay in gaming history: proving you’re better than everyone else by killing them. Such an experience couldn’t be contained in just one gaming platform and thankfully, PUBG branched out to the consoles and even the mobile gaming sc
But then again, these games also feature the same characters being shot, stabbed, burned, beaten, and dragged behind the bumper of a car. Yet the worst that happens is a few scratches and a drop or two of blood. If things get really bad, they might pause to apply a bandage while making a face that says «ouch, that smarts!» These are basically bombastic action movies that we get to play. When has an action movie ever ended because the main character has fallen and can’t get up? Imagine if Die Hard ended early because John McClane fell down a flight of stairs. We definitely wouldn’t be watching that film at Christmast
The controls in the console version are tighter and more cohesive. Plus, they don’t clutter up a third of the screen or sometimes miss inputs because of sweaty fingertips. It’s just more comfortable to play on a controller, which is why some PUBG Mobile players even purchase third party controllers for smartpho
New players will often be confused by announcements about «The Ring». How this mechanic works is that the area is surrounded by an area deadly to players that slowly closes in upon a part of the battlefield. This pattern happens a few times throughout a ma
Fall damage makes logical sense. After all, it’s possible to suffer an intense sprain or broken bone from something as simple as tripping on the sidewalk. Gravity can be one of reality’s greatest villains. So when a game is aiming to be as realistic and authentic as possible, having severe, painful consequences for a high fall is a perfectly reasonable design cho
Apex Legends has recently released the Season 6 update and plenty of things have changed in Respawn Entertainment’s successful battle royale. From guns to Legends, the meta has shifted and because of that, the tier lists ranking those things have shifted in interesting w
If this seems like too much of a responsibility, you can follow the prompt to relinquish the responsibility. Picking when and wear to drop is a delicate balance. You want to try and maximize the chance of getting some loot, but drops that are too close to other jumpers can lead to some dicey first minutes of gameplay. There’s a lot to learn here, so it can be worth it to read up on what makes a dropsite a good o
Sega and PlatinumGames marked the 10th anniversary of cult classics Bayonetta and Vanquish by offering players remastered versions of the two games. Bayonetta is one of few hack-and-slash titles ever to release outside of the Devil May Cry and God of War franchises. However, it’s Vanquish that will make the collection appealing to third-person shooter f
Do you remember the days when the Mastiff was a care package weapon you dreamed about wielding? In seasons since it has become a weapon obtainable via ground loot and thousands of players have been able to experience just how powerful it is. Since moving to be a ground loot item it did see a reduction in overall damage, but it didn’t hamper its effectiveness. The great thing about it being ground loot is that it sports some of the nicest iron sights in the entire game, making the need for a sight attachment insignific
