Map knowledge in any first-person shooter is really the make or break for you and your team going into a given match. However, if the only time you ever learn about the map is when your fireteam is matchmaking publicly, you'll more than likely find yourself on the losing end of games. Destiny 2 isn't the only game to emphasize the importance of location in PvP modes. Take advantage of private and custom match lobbies where you can really strategize and learn the layout of the land before hopping into a live ma

Originally introduced during Season 17, Bungie features Raids and Dungeons in a weekly rotation to make them farmable with updated rewards. Bungie is making 2 of each available in the featured rotation each w

It's clear Destiny 2 boss Strategies 2 , Bungie's cosmic-sized first-person shooter has continued to grow in popularity, and in terms of the content offered by the franchise, for the last few years. With their newest expansion Beyond Light just weeks away from being released, countless players have spent much of their time painstakingly refining their loadouts and subclasses before planetary materials, quests, and weapons get vaul

The Brightest Things We Know is a Forged In The Dark RPG made by Briar Sovereign, the creator behind fantasy mecha RPG Armor Astir: Advent . Currently available for playtesting on itch.io, The Brightest Things We Know takes place in the distant future, where the scattered, besieged colonies of humanity - remnants from a long-lost golden age - are protected by "Stars," immortal champions gifted strange powers by an enigmatic artifact called "The Visit

A great example of this can be seen in the differences between The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. On a technical level, Skyrim is clearly superior. It looks so much better than Morrowind that it’s almost silly to compare the two, and its combat doesn’t suffer from pure RNG like Morrowind’s does. Skyrim’s point-to-point fast travel opens up new options for combat and exploration; annoying mechanics like stat drain spells have been removed entirely and character building is practically automatic. All one has to do is play the game. These are all things that make Skyrim much more convenient than Morrowind, but they don’t necessarily make it better.

Xur, the exotic merchant of Destiny 2 , arrives every weekend until reset, giving players a short window to check out what he has in stock. With The Final Shape, Xur has seen a rework of what is on offer. Here's what the merchant has for the weekend of

Combined, this roll makes Cold Front a decent weapon for most PvE encounters, such as the Security fight in Beyond Light’s Deep Stone Crypt in which Guardians have a lot of adds to kill. Together, this Cold Front god roll looks like t

Regardless of how powerful a singular weapon or subclass might be, numbers almost always beat out a single guardian pushing multiple people. To help your fireteam out in PvP, be sure to utilize the radar on your HUD, as well as equipping weapons that lengthen the amount of time the radar stays active, in order to push enemy guardians with another teammate to supp

The fictional MMO of .Dungeon , a futuristic title called " Annwn ," is described as a self-evolving video game that can scan fantasy stories from books, dramas, and other forms of media, then convert them into virtual scenarios for players to explore. Mechanically, this justifies players taking campaign modules from **Dungeons & Dragons _ ** and other RPGs and converting them into .Dungeon_ scenarios. Instead of losing health from setbacks, players lose a collective resource called Connection, which reflects how invested their party of PCs are in the MMO they're playing. When their Connection reaches zero, the PCs, for various potential reasons, will disband their gaming group and move on to something else in their li

Morrowind’s pure RNG combat is a relic. It was even annoying at the time, so it’s no wonder that Bethesda moved away from it in subsequent games. Even so, it paired with the game’s character development process and gave players a reason to stick closely to their chosen classes and skills. If one didn’t either think of ways to quickly buff/build up their skill or invent tactics to give themselves an edge, then they weren’t going to get anywhere in Morrowind .

Saint-14 and the Trails of Osiris offer players a high-end PvP activity in exchange for powerful rewards. Starting with Episode Heresy, Bungie made getting to the Lighthouse easier , while still offering top-tier rewards for those who can achieve a winning streak. Similar to most vendors in Destiny 2 , Saint-14 has a reputation system that rewards players for ranking up through playing and completing bount

It must be said that classic Halo isn’t necessarily better than a game like Destiny 2. It had matchmaking issues and a progression system that was at least a little, if not very, broken. It also offered players little reason to play outside of simply enjoying multiplayer. It also suffered from feeling "same-y" after a while. Players didn’t have their own personal armories and, until Halo: Reach hit the scene, everyone always had the same basic abilities. Compared to Destiny 2, Halo offered players little in the way of personal options. If one was to find an edge, they had to either do it through power-ups, clever team tactics or just pure skill.
