Once you hit dirt, you’ve got to start grabbing some loot. Loot tends to be located either inside buildings or in special orange or blue containers found throughout the map, often in pairs. The array of loot can be confusing at first, so its good to learn what it all d

Do you remember the days when the Mastiff was a care package weapon you dreamed about wielding? In seasons since it has become a weapon obtainable via ground loot and thousands of players have been able to experience just how powerful it is. Since moving to be a ground loot item it did see a reduction in overall damage, but it didn't hamper its effectiveness. The great thing about it being ground loot is that it sports some of the nicest iron sights in the entire game, making the need for a sight attachment insignific

Then you have Bloodhound, the non-binary espionage expert. It’s a cool way to put a non-binary character in a AAA game, I feel, because whatever perceived "gendered" physical characteristics they might have are obscured by a gas mask and bulky clothing. Their appearance is calculated very deliberately to be genderless and ambiguous, which is a great artistic choice. Oh, and let’s talk for a second about Gibralter. Here's this goofy and sweet beefcake who's gay and doesn’t have some sort of sad backstory about it. He’s not cuckolded and sad like Soldier 76, whose story echoes literally every Hollywood movie ever written about gay men that’s not called Moonlight, or if he is, we don’t know about it. That’s rad as h

Plus, the character designs across the board are very good. There's no titty armor or weeaboo nonsense – every character’s outfit and physical appearance fits their role, has good glance value, follows the classic silhouette test rule , and has a cohesiveness to it that fits in the context of the universe. It’s a game that draws you into its world based on the way the characters look, instead of yanking you out of it. That’s a hard thing to accomplish, especially when it comes to a PVP free-to-play game. It takes a lot of extra effort to not just try and appeal to the lowest common denominator like certain other games that are MOBAs made by Riot Games or shooters made by Hi-Res. A

Revenant was one of the rare cases in which a new character addition wasn't something that broke or altered the game. He was quite lackluster and his usefulness was as close to being non-existent as possible. Since then he's seemingly received buff after buff and those changes have made him a competent legend that's finding himself on plenty of team compositions. People should never underestimate the fact that he can crouch-walk faster and climb higher than any other legend in the g

Apex Legends from Respawn Entertainment is currently celebrating its Season 6 event and players are having a blast with the new changes. Outside of the gun changes which have altered the meta, many updates have led to a change in the tier list for Legends in the g

To me, where Apex Legends truly succeeds is in its strength of character. That is to say, its diverse and robust cast of eclectic player-characters are unlike anything else in the genre. Fortnite‘s characters are colorful in the same way that '80s cartoon characters are, but they lack personality or depth. Meanwhile, PUBG’s got some military gear and overpriced Suicide Squad costumes that look like they’re from Party City’s bargain bin. Warzone? More like snore zone. Against this limp competition, Apex has the edge by defa

Lifeline is still to this day arguably the best support Legend in all of Apex Season 12 Legends , and her recent buffs only add to that case. She can now dual-revive via a new mechanic, which in the right hands can swing entire team fights if done accordingly. Lifeline can now also grab tons of extra loot as 20% of all supply bins will be blue. She's fallen out of popularity simply because healing supports are never the most interesting or entertaining, but she still has a case for herself and thankfully hasn't been nerfed into obscur

If this seems like too much of a responsibility, you can follow the prompt to relinquish the responsibility. Picking when and wear to drop is a delicate balance. You want to try and maximize the chance of getting some loot, but drops that are too close to other jumpers can lead to some dicey first minutes of gameplay. There's a lot to learn here, so it can be worth it to read up on what makes a dropsite a good o

However, with enemies that can one-shot kill Master Chief, Halo 2 is unquestionably the most difficult game in the series. Anyone who tries playing it on Legendary with a friend on co-op will find it quite challenging to survive. Halo 2 is long and tedious. If players can beat the first level alone, they'll boast FPS skills that few others poss

The Flatline was once considered to easily be the best assault rifle in the game, but the vaulting of the Anvil Receiver attachment took it down a notch. The difference between the Flatline and the Carbine comes down to preference, though the Flatline lacks the Carbine's accuracy and long-range effectiveness. It makes up for it though with solid damage output across the board and significantly favorable ammo depletion. A level 3 magazine on the Flatline results in it dealing 40 damage per heads
