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
It’s fine when games aim for realism, but that should never come at the expense of having fun. As rational as the concept of fall damage is, it never translates to anything meaningful in a gaming experience. Even FromSoftware – the master of having your character die as a result of irritating fall damage – eventually saw the error of its ways and made Sekiro, a game where you jump around like a samurai sword-wielding Ma
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
Watch Dogs 2 is an open-world game set in a fictionalized version of San Francisco that had its work cut out for it, given how much players were disappointed by the first game. Thankfully, this game improved the hacking and combat in every way, allowing players to finally enjoy the experience they were promised with the first ti
As cheesy as it sounds, the most important thing in a match isn’t the guns or loot, but your friends. A squad of one or two will have a much harder time than a squad of three. If your teammates get knocked down they can no longer fight, but can move. You can get them up again, but its best to eliminate the enemy first, or at least get another teammate to protect you while you while you revive your teammate behind co
Released back in 2017, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds _ started the battle royale craze across the globe. One year later, _PUBG Mobile was released, allowing eager fans to play on their mobile devices wherever and whenever they wanted to. The announcement of a faithful PUBG port to phones was exciting for fans who don’t have a console or PC, and were stuck playing PUBG clones . PUBG Mobile ‘s free-to-play model also allows more players to discover the game through app stores, and allows console PUBG players to check out PUBG Mobile on their devices completely f
When PUBG was released, however, fans quickly realized that communication was the key to winning matches. While some of the battle royales on the market allow players to come back from the dead, survival is extremely important. Each decision made throughout a battle royale match matters and one bad move by a teammate could ruin an entire ma
Here’s the thing though: reality is stupid. While it’s certainly true to life that a mistimed fall will lead to injury and perhaps death, that doesn’t mean it’s fun. Fall damage has never been enjoyable and always hinders how you can play a game. So it’s time for game developers to thumb their nose at Isaac Newton and eliminate fall damage once and for
The game’s futuristic setting isn’t just for story purposes. PlatinumGames created a ton of interesting and exciting gameplay mechanics that center around sci-fi technology, making Vanquish feel unique even to this
The main difference when players think of PUBG vs PUBG Mobile is the graphics. PUBG Mobile is clearly a much lower resolution so it’s optimized for most smartphones worldwide. Although players can change their graphics settings up to Ultra, the graphics still will not match PUBG on PC, and some devices will sacrifice frames for graphic quality. On the other hand, a PC can handle a much larger workload and will be able to run very high graphics settings up to a 1080p HD gaming experience. PUBG on PC will be much smoother than PUBG Mob
PUBG Mobile offers more game modes to players than PUBG does, with Arena, Playlab, and War being included. PUBG Mobile also has rotational modes for players to enjoy at different times. PUBG simply has Team Deathmatch aside from the classic Battle Royale. PUBG Mobile also has Ranked Solos, Duos, and Squads instead of being unranked. PUBG only offers Ranked Squads, so Solos and Duos are purely unranked, although Ranked Solos are com

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
