The combat is system the same as any RPG, but there was a precise combo system that not many games at the time had. Nail them right and you would unleash lethal damage. I think if there was a sequel, they would be able to break away from all of the generics and finally become its own. LoD had tons of potential- they just borrowed too much from other ga

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 shoulder peeking in CS2 any game’s matchmaking sys

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

Of course, since I compared it to Max Payne, you should know that it has bullet time and more bullet time-esque features. It has everything a mindless, fun game would need: bad-ass main character (voiced/modeled after Chow Yun Fat)? Check! Gratifying violence? Check! Over the top action sequences? Check! Solid controls? Ch

As one of the few maps created by Valve, Ancient was released on December 3, 2020, as part of Operation Broken Fang. It wouldn't be until May 3, 2021, when the map was moved to the active map pool replacing Train. While Train was a well-liked and balanced map to the CS:GO community, there was some sentiment that it did start to feel a bit stale despite being one of the first maps to be reworked. This was apparent in the decline in pick rate at the professional level, but especially in casual play which is likely the cause for the remo

Newcomers getting into the FPS genre might feel overwhelmed at first at the idea of Rainbow Six: Siege . Due to the tactical nature of Rainbow Six Siege , players need to rely on careful planning, reconnaissance with drones and cameras, and even reinforcing (or breaking through) walls and doors. On top of these mechanics are a wide array of Attackers and Defenders that, with their unique abilities, augment a team's already-expansive tool

The M4A1-S would be the de facto best rifle for the CT side if the M4A4 did not exist. The M4A1-S is silenced and has significantly easier-to-control recoil than the M4A4, but has a slower rate of fire and a smaller magazine, making it less valued. The gun is still incredible. Due to its better recoil, the M4A1-S is a fantastic long-range rifle that will serve you well in wiping out enemies from afar. A newer player looking to improve would find the M4A1-S to be more forgiving and easier to learn with than the M

When it comes to games that have a history of consistency and familiarity, very few can match what Counter-Strike: Global Offensive brings to the table. When it was released back in 2012, CS:GO was the game to be brought the player bases of Counter-Strike 1.6 and Counter-Strike: Source together. While it mostly succeeded in this endeavor, it wasn't without gowning pains. Thankfully much of that is in the past, so nowadays most players look forward to the future of the g

A former meta-defining weapon, the SG552 was nerfed , and for good reason. The Terrorist exclusive SG 553, or Krieg as it is known by many, was able to do everything an AK could do, but with a scope. Although the rifle is not a must-have weapon anymore, it is still a fantastic gun. It is an excellent weapon at holding angles, making it a beast in post-plant situations. It also is quite capable in longer-range engageme

Ultimately, we can only really guess as to how Valve weighs each of these points, or if it even uses all of them at all in determining a Trust Factor value per player account. There is much more to consider, and everyone should take the time to check out the patent for themselves. It can appear to be a long, daunting read, because it is, but there are some interesting pieces of information to glean from such an endea

The AWP's little cousin, the SSG 08, or Scout rifle, is an excellent choice when doing a half buy or an eco round where you can't afford an AWP. The Scout is extremely affordable and effective for its price point. It will one-shot anyone to the head and will do massive damage to the body, leveling the playing field for your teammates with bad guns. Capable of locking down long corridors or holding angles like the AWP, the Scout trades pure killing power for a more attractive price point and mobil

Essentially the same PUBG experience , PUBG Mobile drops players in squads throughout a remote island. Once on the ground, squads need to find weapons and armor as they eliminate enemies they meet along the way. With a game map increasingly getting smaller with each passing minute, players will need to remain on the move in order to surv
