It is far more common for Octane to run away, leaving his teams banners behind, when the 3rd, 4th, and 5th teams show up to an engagement. Octane falls in the last place simply because his movement only benefits one person on the t

As players begin to learn and master the newly released character there will certainly be a plentiful amount of defeats and deaths. The character's kit is relatively complex and is one that, if not mastered, can lead to some embarrassing and frustrating losses. However, there is no better time to learn a new character than now and even the most frustrating losses can serve as a learning tool for players learning a new character. When picking up Revenant it is important that aspiring players understand his relative strengths and weaknesses. He is a very technical legend and is one that will require a firm understanding of game mechanics to excel with. This guide will provide aspiring players a foundation to build upon as they master the newly released assas

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 legends 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

Just after the trailer introduces the totem, Revenant shoots some kind of grenade out of his arm. From the gameplay video alone, it’s hard to tell how, exactly, this will work. However, it appears his grenade tactical ability may have some kind of arc or stun charge, which manifests as the orange glowing ball in the image be

When I learned Tyler " Ninja " Blevins wrote a book about how to improve gameplay, I was interested to see if his tips would actually help me get better at Apex Legends . For a fee amounting to less than two months of Mixer subs, I downloaded Ninja: Get Good: My Ultimate Guide to Gaming for Kin

There's then a whisper that leads into a song. "Jekyll-and-Hyde-ing me," the raspy voice says as the trailer continues before the beat picks up. The song itself is a metaphor for a number of things in the trailer, not least of which is Revenant hims

The first chapter, "Gear Up," is about investing in the right gear. Unfortunately, it's primarily limited to a discussion of PC gaming gear. Given that I'm an Xbox girl in a PC world, I initially found it about as helpful as a Mozambique without a hop

Planet Zoo is one of the most advanced simulation games I've ever played. While it isn't perfect, it's pretty close and is paving the way for the sim genre. There is a depth we’ve never seen in both graphics and gameplay, which allows players to feel truly connected to the world they are building. Planet Zoo will take you into your environment in a brand new way, all while raising awareness of important issues through an engaging and enjoyable g

Apex Legends Ballistic Leak Legends made a powerful debut Q1 of 2019, EA opting for a bold "no marketing" tactic. Embodying the trends of 2019 by building on the popular battle royale genre, Apex Legends released on Windows, PS4, and Xbox One for free. Streamers contributed to the game’s success, but players stuck around due to the unique incorporation of ability-based heroes and a wonderfully addicting set of movement mechanics. Apex barely edges this one out due to Respawn’s slow-moving developmental support, but the fact that competitives and casuals alike have stuck around is a testament to the game’s impressive fundament

Weeks later, I invested in a gaming PC and revisited the chapter in the process. His advice impacted how I think about accessories. For example, I learned all about mouse DPI (dots per inch, for those of you who were are clueless as I was) and the relative benefits of different mouse pad sizes (big movements require a big pad). I learned wireless accessories can cause latency issues. I studied the pros and cons of different monitor sizes. I currently have a 30" monitor, but he posited a strong argument as to why I might choose a slightly smaller one in the future (essentially, something too big makes it hard to follow everything that’s happening on the scre
