DOOM Multiplayer Review


DOOM Multiplayer Review

The Multiplayer content and gameplay in doom gts a lot of bad rep. PCGamer described it as "Dull" and "Fails to carve out an identity of its own." I completely disagree with bot hof these. I'm not a huge fan of First Person Shooters, I don't dislike them but they've never been my cup of tea. This year there has been a few really good shooters, with games like Player Unknown's Battlegrounds and Destiny 2 I think DOOM which was released in May of last year can still compete with these newer titles since it brings something completely new to the table.

Gameplay

Something that DOOM does, that a lot of other shooters dont do is it supports being aggressive! With one of the main things in DOOM that completely separates it's self from other shooters in the Health and Armor pickups. Normally how combat in other shooters go is, shoot from cover, then sink back and wait for your health to regen. Rinse and repeat. All though PUBG has bandages and Medkits to bring back your health, DOOM brought having to go out and actually find health and such nearly a year before PUBG came out. How Health and Armor pickups work in DOOM is exactly how you'd think. Instead of your health regenerating there is health pickups around the map that will restore your health. Instead of shoot, wait for health to regen, repeat. DOOM goes more like, shoot, run into the action to even stay alive, shoot again, and repeat. Making for a much more fun gameplay in my opinion. Armor Pickups act in the same way, there will be Armor Pickups around the map that you will have to find that most of the time can make the difference between life in death. Armor acts a lot like extra health, when you have Armor active the armor will take damage instead of your actual health, which makes it very very Important.

Weapons

The Weapons in most shooters are fairly bland. And most of the time exactly what you think, you have your pistols, you have different types of rifles that most of the time are the same guns except for slightly changed speed and damage. Well DOOM completely changes that, having tons of different weapons with different abilities, charge times and can completely change the entire gameplay. Also with the guns being able to be changed how you like, with different patterns and colors that you can unlock by hitting certain levels or doing challenges like killing a certain amount of enemy or demon with a certain gun. Every Weapon in doom has a special ability, sometimes like the Heavy Assault Rifle the ability will be a scope or sometimes the abilities will be more unique like the Plasma Rifles ability to shoot a puddle of Plasma on the ground that deals damage to enemies that walk on it. Critical Hits are well... a Critical part of the combat. Different weapons have ways to doing Critical Hits, some guns like the Heavy Assault Rifle will give you Critical Damage for headshots, some weapons like the Plasma Rifle will give you Critical Damage for rapid damage being dealt, or sometimes even for close damage, like the Shotguns in the game. The Weapons in DOOM are very well balanced, if a weapon has a really good strength it's going to have a weakness as well. The highest damage dealing guns like the Super Shotgun will most of the time has a very long reload speed, which is why really slow guns that deal a lot of damage like the Super Shotgun are balanced really well if you also have a gun like the Heavy Assault Rifle or the Plasma Rifle which both deal a medium amount of damage at a very fast rate, you can start with your Super Shotgun, then switch to your Rifle, then back to your Super Shotgun once it's loaded, which you might not even need since combat goes fast, each player dealing a bunch of damage. Which is why Armor is an important part of the gameplay

Secret World Legends: Black Sun, Red Sands, Tier 9 Guide.

Black Sun, Red Sands Tier 9 Alright. So Black Sun, Red Sands in the main story quest in Egypt, but there is a somewhat hard puzzle in Tier Nine. Once you get to a point, it'll say "Continue Singh's research to open the door." This part is really confusing but if you look around there is a bunch of statues. You need to click those in the right order. The right order is #1 Meretseger #2 Ma'at #3 Horus #4 Bast #5 Satis #6 Sekhmet. After you do all of those it will tell you to find the statue of Anibus. If you go all the way back to where you came from the front and jump down. You'll see a door you can now open and that's where it is. Tier 11 You don't really get any more puzzles till you get to Tier 11 you come to a large area with a sand golem in the middle, what you need to do is go to the large pillars and there will be blue portals, go through each one and you'll be on the top of a pillar, you'll see a white box on each of th

Secret World Legends: Side quest walkthrough pt1

Image
Secret World Legends       Secret World Legends! It is a somewhat new remake of The Secret World, with a whole new combat system. To quote the Executive Producer Scott Junior "We are taking what was an MMORPG and transitioning it into a shared world free-to-play RPG." But SWL is a far cry from the types of MMOs you see today where it just gives you a quest marker you have to follow through the entire game. In Secret World Legends you'll sometimes have a marker to follow, but in a lot of the smaller side quests you'll be given a puzzle or hints that you will have to try and figure out. And that's what we will be covering! Kingsmouth     This is not a  Beginners Guide to the game  or a guide to the main story line either. We'll be focusing on the side quests that you can find around the map. So also all the quests that are inside the main quest we won't be covering, since it explains those to you are fairly straight forward. Kingsmouth Code.

Injustice 2 Review

Injustice 2 Injustice 2 released May of 2017 as a sequel to Injustice: Gods Among Us. The injustice Series is a fighting game in the style of Mortal Combat with DC super heros with a story line of multiple realities and a civil war between the different superheros. In my opinion Injustice: Gods Among Us is just another fighting game, it had a good story but other than that it was bland. Injustice 2 completely stepped up it's game with singleplayer content and replayability value. And Here's Why! Injustice has a Multiverse System, there is five to six multiverse events you can do, each one you'll have mini events inside each one (AKA having to fight 3 to 18 enemies). Each Multiverse will give you a reward after beating it, and will sometimes require you to play only as one character. Mini events will also give you rewards, and if you get a certain amount of points you can get a Bronze, Silver, and Gold Mother Crate. Now let'
