Legacy Of The Void Brings High-Octane Multiplayer To Starcraft II

Refreshingly, The Phantom Pain seems to be much more about playing a game than watching it. With more freedom than before, it will be interesting to see how large the mission areas themselves will get, especially when compared to the space traveled to get there. The game world, people especially, will get accustomed to your exploits and strengthen themselves against your tactics. This may also mean though, that there are areas you will find yourself revisiting.

Missions range from the standard fare to unique takes on inter-faction interaction (say that five times fast). The Sky Shield mission tasks you with assisting Jim Raynor and Terran Forces. In Unleashed, you can relocate your base -- literally shift and move your Nexus -- to avoid interruptions in mineral collection. Many of the cinematics and voice recordings have been completed or are seriously underway at this point, but no official release date has been revealed.


Gears Tactics is an adrenaline-packed strategy horde that throws tons of enemies at players because the developer knows the power that the tools at your disposal hold. The chainsaw gun has 99.9 percent odds of slicing even the biggest locust in half or turning a 5-pack of scurrying wretches into gra

In addition, several Protoss units are gaining abilities or having slight tweaks to their existing skillset. Tempests are gaining the Disintegration ability, which deals massive damage to single units either in the air or ground as well as structures, but their normal attack can no longer hit flying units. In addition, they've gained a buff to their movement speed. Disintegration does not require the Tempest to remain in proximity for the duration of the ability, and is a scary new target-removal option. Immortals have had their Hardened Shields removed (!) but gain the Barrier Shield ability, which grants a short-duration damage absorbing shield. This will reward intelligent use as well as improve encounters where the Immortal was formerly unstoppable.


Any fan of Apex Legends knows what sliding into cover means. Allies can easily slip into cover from a couple of feet like a gigantic magnet is dragging them.The cover magnetism cheats slightly by allowing a player get to areas that would otherwise be out of ra

Metal Gear Solid V plans to be many things: open-world, customizable, flexible, dark, funny, epic, heartfelt, cinematic... and it plainly seems to accommodate all those things together into a freeing stealth experience. For starters, as an open-world game, Metal Gear Solid V will not be that large, nor will it have a giant continuous area. Instead, the game treats you to patches of land in different countries where a large range of missions and operations will take place and can be initiated.


Don't go for many side missions, because odds finishing some of them are very high. As such, before going on any mission, check the rewards and descriptions. Go for legendary ones rather than Epic o

With a long, complex legacy and a more complex story, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain may be the game to finally end the story of the Snakes by bringing it full circle. Although this isn't the first time he's said so, visionary director/producer/writer/designer Hideo Kojima may finally leave his beloved Metal Gear series behind after The Phantom Pain. Needless to say, that puts Metal Gear Solid V on the path to be the best, largest, and most ambitious Metal Gear game to date. From what we've seen so far, that may just be the case.


It could also be part of Microsoft’s free upgrade program, allowing players to buy a SLG game Guide for the Xbox One, and get a free upgrade to the Series X version when the console comes out. But right now, Microsoft doesn’t want to hamper sales of the PC version, so they’re not making that fact very well kn

Things like supply drops, Fulton Recovery, and upgrades especially, all cost points called GMP. Upgrades cost large amounts of GMP, while using the Fulton costs smaller amounts of GMP. At times, you'll have to spend money to make money. You have a limited amount of Fultons, though from how gameplay has been presented lately, using it when you feel like it will not be met with punishment. However, as logic dictates, the Fulton can be spotted and shot down.

Blizzcon is an exciting time of the year for fans of any of the current Blizzard titles, or potential upcoming ones . The B is teasing some upcoming changes for StarCraft II multiplayer in its second add-on, Legacy of the Void. Add-on is a bit of a misnomer: the game will release as a standalone title, meaning that StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty or Heart of the Swarm will not be necessary to play Legacy of the Void. No news yet on pricing, though it was stated before that it would be priced as an expansion.

Things have opened up in Metal Gear Solid V, even more so than Ground Zeroes, and the Metal Gear formula is adapting around it. That is not to say you may no longer walk through a stronghold in a cardboard box, but it seems far less likely than ever that you would do that given all the options at your disposal. Do you explore the area and find your way to the objective, relying on your intel and your wits? Do you interrogate an enemy soldier on where to go and then leave the enemy stronghold to re-enter from a different angle? Or do you cause a ruckus, get the objective, and then call your extraction chopper to high-tail it out? The choice, as is a bit new for the series, is yours. Metal Gear Solid V is, needless to say, doing a lot of new things. But from the looks of it, everything new is done quite well and is built off of something reliably old. With this latest installment in the series, Metal Gear Solid V looks to be a very different game than before but nevertheless looks good for it so far, all while running at 1080p and 60 frames-per-second on a PlayStation 4.
