After spending a lot of time with the Star Wars Battlefront 2 beta, the game is a ton of fun and is shaping up to be one of the best shooters of 2017. DICE really have done an amazing job and they really are pumping the game full of content.
Loot boxes in games are going to be a major thing in the next couple of years. Overwatch is what we have to thank for that, but to be fair, Overwatch handles their loot boxes (or crates) very well. But Star Wars Battlefront 2 is showing the ugly side of loot boxes. Rather than just get items that will change the appearance of your characters. The loot boxes in Star Wars Battlefront 2 are all about enhancing your character. Buffs that make you do more damage or take less damage. New and more powerful weapons and things that will make a real difference on the battlefield. The problem is the way you earn “currency” in the game is pretty messed up and you get no more currency for carrying your team to victory than if you are the weakest player on your team!
Plus it takes what feels like an age to earn enough to get a loot box that contains a Star Card which has an upgrade that it is a grind that feels like a bit of a slap in the face. One popular YouTuber made the point that the upgrade system in Battlefront 2 is like what you would find in a free to play game and it is hard to argue with that.
From a gameplay point of view, Star Wars Battlefront 2 is incredible, but it will be interesting to see if players are going to be happy with the way these loot boxes are handled.
Overwatch is an awesome game. It is not just that it is a very fun and accessible first person shooter. But the whole style and lore behind it that has really gotten people hooked. Blizzard really did knock it out of the park.
Last year, Junkenstein's Revenge was a huge success and now the mode is back as part of this year’s Halloween event. But rather than just playing through a few hordes of enemies. You can now play it for as long as you like in order to see how long you can last. The real star though is the new Halloween themed skins which people are going crazy for and really praying that they are going to get when they open up a loot box. There is going to be a ton of cool new items for us to try and get and we have until the 2nd of November to get them which should hopefully be enough time to make it happen.
The fact that Blizzard is giving this away for free is one of the reasons that so many people get into Overwatch. Sure you have to grind like hell to get them all, but as the game is so much fun to play, many people really do not mind this at all.
So remember you have until November 2nd to take advantage of this. This is certainly something we are going to do as we were really bummed out last year when they took Junkenstein's Revenge away after the event finished!
Today we are starting looking at the different divisions in Call Of Duty WWII. Starting with what many people class as the most basic Division, Infantry.
We feel that Infantry Division in Call Of Duty WWII is best for those who are either new to the game or who just like to jump in and do some of that classic, Call Of Duty run and gun action that we have all been doing for years.
Each division has its own division weapon class, but you can actually use any weapon you like, but you, of course, have specific division exclusive perks. In the case of Infantry division, it is all about moving quickly and blasting anything that gets in your way. For example, if you use the SMG, you may not be able to get the perk of adding a suppressor to it. But instead, you get the ability to add a few more extra attachments to your primary weapon (whatever it may be) as well as the ability to aim quicker.
So we would say that the infantry division in Call Of Duty WWII is perfect for those players who like their gameplay a little bit more fast paced. We would also suggest that you have a good read of the division to make sure you know what perks you are getting and how you need to level up. The semi-automatic rifle and the self-loading pistol that are the default weapons of this division are perfect for those players who want to just jump into the action. However, the tweaks that infantry division allows you to make to the weapons really can make you a deadly threat on the battlefield, especially if you are content to just run and gun, taking down anyone you come across and not worrying about your K/D ratio.
