Bloodhound's tactical ability is his "eye of the Allfather" a powerful recon ability that allows Bloodhound to see enemies through walls. This ability alone makes Bloodhound an oppressive offense character, as it is incredibly difficult to avoid a good Bloodhound pla

Star Wars might be going through a rough patch with the new trilogy of movies, but the video games released under this IP have been dynamite the last few years. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is, for lack of a better phrase, Uncharted in Star Wars . That sells it short of its engaging combat and excellent character building , but the core gameplay loop of exploration followed by epic fights bears a striking resemblance between the two ga

At the end of the day, Epic Games wants to succeed as a publisher by hoarding exclusives, and time will tell if their strategy works, but it is clear that they are completely committed to their strategy and are not interested in the opinions of users who dislike exclusivity agreements. As a result, we can be sure to hear more as each new exclusivity deal is announ

With Season 3 chugging along in Apex Legends , it is time to address the differences that the World’s Edge Map brings with it. The fights seem to take place in one of two locations: wide open fields with limited cover and densely built areas that require vertical gunp

Her ability to place powerful electrical gates can turn even the most simple of buildings into a fortress. On top of her shield restoring and ordnance destroying ultimate, Wattson is one of the true defensive characters in the g

Right in the middle, Bangalore is a safe choice, albeit hit or miss for effectiveness. Her smoke can get a team out in a pinch in the open expanses on World’s Edge or be used offensively when coupled with a thermal si

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

While not team-oriented in kit design (or personality), Mirage excels on the current map because of his decoys and his ability to disappear in a tight spot. The elevation changes make seeing exactly where mirage is difficult, so launching a decoy is a little more believable, especially mid-fight when the enemy is shooting anything that mo

A large focus on teamwork and coordination makes Apex Legends a great game for new players or experienced players of this genre alike. Even the worst of players can use the phenomenal ping system to help out the rest of their squad. Plus, this game is completely f

While there were so many outstanding game releases in 2019, what usually garners the most attention is consumer backlash against developers. In each of the following circumstances, a lack of communication or an overwhelming show of greed was often the reason for a fallout between the two sides, and hopefully there are lessons to be learned to make 2020 a better y

In Fortnite , the right duo partner can make or break your chance to earn your half of $3 million , so it's imperative to find the right person. I’d venture to say competitive duos such as that of Reverse2k and Ninja spend more time communicating with one another than most of people will ever communicate with their partn

The damage reduction combined with the gun shield makes him a danger at any range and in most situations. His ability to scare people off the high ground with his Ultimate is the icing on the cake for Gibraltar in the current Apex

Mirage’s ultimate is not only a good escape tactic but also can be used to sneak up on an unsuspecting enemy while your team engages from another direction. Mirage makes the top half because of his ability to distract and maneuver around the enemy te

Destruction. Battlefield Bad Company 2 boasts some of the best destructible environments that any game has seen to this very day. Critical buildings can be reduced to ashes if repeatedly hit with explosives. Light cover can be blown away with repeated small arms fire. This game allowed for so much replayability in its multiplayer, also boasting a rather lighthearted campaign most fans enjo

so-very-thankful.jpg?width=746&format=pjpg&exif=0&iptc=0Infantry combat was fast and visceral, while vehicular gameplay required teamwork to truly succeed. A well-coordinated squad could sway an entire match in their favor. Nothing can match flying through a crumbling building in a helicopter to pick up squad members while rockets glance by. This is one of the best games DICE has ever m

But back then, your duo partner was limited to whoever was around. You might play with your siblings because you'd get grounded if you didn't let them join you. Or, you could find yourself playing with the smelly kid from school only because his button smashing tactics got you further than you could ever get on your

Gibraltar is equipped with a powerful bubble shield, Apexherozone.com which prevents enemies from shooting at whoever is inside the shield. But also prevents any returning fire from within the bubble. Gibraltar is an essential defensive powerhouse in a game dominated by powerful offensive legends. His ultimate launches a powerful round of bombs from a friendly airstr
