If there's one thing that could make hearing slurs barked into your ear a little easier to swallow, it's cute anime girls. Picture, then, a challenger to CS:GO and Siege 's throne. A bouncier, brighter, and more inviting challenger - but with all the brown and bloom you've come to know and l

In the patent, there is a broad range of points listed that could all be used in determining the Trust Factor. Here we will go into some of the more interesting as well as some of the obvious. To begin, the following are one’s that we might expect to see in any game’s matchmaking sys

With a franchise already intrinsically connected to girls murdering swarms of their peers, the leap between "cutting high schoolers down in the streets" and "dying ten times to get one hit in on something" is a pretty small one. Bonus points if From Software comes on board and imbues the game with the immersive, organic physics their games are known

The first two points quite literally seem to indicate that more money spent in game on cosmetics translating to being more trustworthy. Perhaps there is some truth to this, as spending real money in a game may dissuade a user from cheating and risking the lose of an account, but it still seems odd without confirmation of that i

Unlike Overwatch, Paladins boasts a deck-building system that lets players customize other aspects of their heroes. These range from adding stats bonuses to incorporating additional effects to their abilities, all geared towards helping players build unique takes to their character's preset strateg

Players take control of their anime teen of choice, then get dropped into 5v5 matches on a variety of claustrophobic maps. While trying to defuse bombs, rescue hostages, and secure tactical areas, the girls will hunt each other down with military-grade weaponry. Upon taking a few slugs from a Type-89 or a face full of SuperNova buckshot, your girl loses an article of clothing and becomes instantly immobilized for the rest of the round. Too many losses, and bam - your skintight clothing is gone, and you've lost the ma

Geographic location on the other hand is a strange one. Perhaps a player needs to move often, and that is outside of their control. Perhaps players need to use VPNs for undisclosed reasons, and that too may be out of their hands. Whatever the case, it would be fascinating to know more about how Valve uses this d

However, with this most recent release, it's easy to wonder - where will the series go next? At first blush, it might seem like the games are exhausting their possibilities when it comes to genre. But have no fear! We're here with some salient ideas of how Senran Kagura can tap into the hottest industry trends to bring its unique brand of titillating action to an even broader audience! Let's strip down and get right into

But what she doesn't know is that this monster is one of her own creation. Her latent masochism has given way to these dark delusions - twisted abominations that are physical manifestations of her own innate desire to be punished by somebody, anyb

Valve’s newest effort at matchmaking assigns players with a value known as the Trust Factor. This is a hidden value that considers several points to help place a player into a match. Valve has made it perfectly clear in this blog post that they will not revealing the specifics that modify this value because they do not want players to alter their behavior in an effort to manipulate the system. This is perfectly fair on their part, as players will go to great lengths to break video games, either just for fun, or to gain a competitive advant

At first, most initial ramps in any Surf Map are easy enough to navigate. However, middle sections of any Surf Map may feature ramps farther away from each other, transforming into headscratchers for most amateur Surfers. Thing is, traversing these "impossible" distances are possible with another Surfing principle: Turn

Chinese zodiac dogs think the worst of the world around them, much like the protagonist of BioShock Infinite , Booker Dewitt. Booker does everything he can to protect Elizabeth, who he believes to be important to him. This loyalty is reminiscent of a Chinese zodiac dog. Exercising caution as you progress through BioShock Infinite will help to reach the end. Despite being someone who thinks the worst of the world, you are a likable per

It is fascinating that before even mentioning the skill-based aspects of matchmaking, it is behavior associated with cheating or what we could interpret as toxicity is addressed first. Obviously there needs to be a focus on isolating cheaters from non-cheaters, but one might have guessed that skill would have taken a predominate spot in determining the Trust Factor for placing one player with similarly skilled oth

Team Fortress 2: It’s not quite surprising to find out that Team Fortress 2 , another valve cease and Desist game, would have its fair share of Surf Mods.
