The classic remake totally revitalized our love for the game and series overall. Pretty much everything about it was well-executed... and, I mean, c'mon. The addition of the beloved Tofu Survivor should be enough to make any Game of the Year l
Revenant's climbing skill makes the legend an extremely elusive character as well. He can escape from combat encounters in such a way that it is impossible to follow. Other than Octane and Pathfinder, Revenant is one of the few truly mobility-focused Apex Legends 2.0 in the game. His ability to engage enemies in unpredictable and trick ways paired with his seemingly endless amount of evasion skills makes the robot assassin a deadly force to face on the battlefi
When it comes to squads of three or more, a team can still perform well if one player makes a mistake or simply isn’t as good as the others. Further, teammates can work with one another to diffuse tension when it arises. While teammates aren’t always perfect, the team dynamic does a great service in helping to hide these individual fl
With the Charge Rifle splashing onto the scene in all of its fiery, imbalanced glory, giving the Wingman and Longbow back their signature golden hop-up might even help restore some balance and variety to long-ranged com
Netflix's new series The Witcher , based on the popular video game series, indicates there's a strong market for live action series based on beloved games. While many studios have tried ( and largely failed ) with film adaptations, streaming television services tend to be a more forgiving medium. Budgets are typically smaller, and with that, productions are lower-risk than films, which seek recouped costs with large-scale theatrical releases. To date, TV networks have aired a handful of shows based on video games, primarily targeted toward kids or anime audiences. However, there’s been little in the way of live-action television adaptations of games for primarily adult audien
This also makes Revenant an excellent mid to long-range fighting character. As his small crouching character model coupled with its incredible speed in this crouching state, a difficult target to hit. It's quick poking in and out of cover in a crouching state will make the legend a difficult character to overcome in the right ha
Unless you’re sporting some gold, healing can easily get you killed. And even if you eliminate an entire squad, you are always vulnerable to a Third Party. They will be looking to take advantage of your weakened health after hearing all the gunfire. True, many have learned that looting an eliminated enemy will offer up a full Body Shield. However, this can also be crucial in the middle of a firefight. If you’re out of Shield Cells or Batteries, you can finish off a knocked opponent for their armor. More likely, it can also genuinely be worth it to swap for lesser armor sitting nearby, just to survive in a pinch. Particularly if your teammates are down, leaving you without cover or t
In team games, competitive players form squads based on a variety of factors. These include things like play styles, players' individual strengths, communication and the all-around ability to tolerate one anot
Does the idea of leaving a bug behind as we plow into season four make for a hot take? You wouldn't think so, no. But given that this particularly problematic bug impacting an important aspect of gameplay has persisted for more than a month, it might be hotter than we'd initially susp
Although Lifeline heals more quickly, including downed teammates, her shield is a beacon to the enemy. It signals a squad to push on you, because two-thirds of your team is occupied. However, these characteristics can be used to your advantage in a pinch. Firstly, you can use the whirring sound of D.O.C. as bait to suggest that you need healing when you don’t. The same goes for Lifeline’s shield, luring the enemy to attack, when you’re actually ready to defend. But trickiest of all, you can use Lifeline’s shield as a literal shield in close-quarters combat. Begin to revive a teammate just while the enemy is shooting, then release and fire back. Repeat as necessary, and it might just save you. These tactics are especially handy when both teammates are d
Players have been particularly outspoken concerning its problematic loot distribution and the prevalence of wide, open, and consequentially boring spaces to battle in. Wherever Respawn takes us next, we're hoping they took some notes concerning what didn't work with World's E
Portal’s Chell had the right idea—now make GLaDOS proud. Obviously, Wraith’s ability to phase while she extends a portal is highly useful for crossing dangerous terrain. Your entire squad can escape the sharpest eyes of a sniper. However, Wraith’s portal is also useful for downed teammates. Instead of defending another knocked teammate who tried to be a lone wolf, offer them a portal to saf
