Pair this with the fact that players can only use it when aiming down sights, and it’s simply not effective in medium- or close-range gunfig

Introduced in Season 2, Wattson is currently one of the game’s more popular characters among skilled players. Her Ultimate Ability, which restores shields for anyone within its immediate radius, serves twofold as a way to block grenade spam and Ultimates from characters such as Bangalore and Gibral

In team play, the Dome Shield can be useful to protect players from incoming damage, giving them space to revive teammates and to avoid Gibraltar’s bombardment should a player choose to use it. However, in Solos, in spite of any protection, its high visibility makes Gibraltar a target by drawing attention from other players. Because it’s so short, Gibraltar can only move so far away from it before it times out. Because it gives away his location, the use of the shield leaves him vulnerable to snipers, counter-strike attacks, and so

Wraith’s portal will also prove incredibly effective in Solos as it allows a quick retreat should a player move to a new location and suddenly find themselves being targeted by enemies. However, just as in team play, the player must be aware of enemies the follow Wraith through the por

Apex Legends may never reach the sustained heights of Fortnite, but Respawn Entertainment has stated they're committed to supporting the game. The various legends in the game all bring a unique bit of representation and personality to the world and very few make an impression like Octane. He's the wild and crazy adrenaline junkie who burst on the scene with his bionic legs and edgy appeara

He's very lucky that it only blew off his legs because a matter of inches could have resulted in him losing much more of his body. Maybe he'll have a counterpart who lost their arms and is introduced as a legend in the game in the fut

PUBG had its fair share of flaws over the years, namely with graphical issues, but it has since ironed them out. PUBG did lose a lot of its players to other battle royale games, but it is quickly rising upward to claim its old spot on the gaming throne ag

ARK: Survival Evolved isn’t the greatest game, but this buggy action game has managed to find its audience.

Alongside her interception pylon ultimate ability, Wattson can also set up electrified gates that interconnect with one another and can create unique combat scenarios.

Sometimes, in a 3v3 team play situation, Mirage players can get away with this in the confusion of a fight, where bullets, smoke, and gas all contribute to the chaos. In a 1v1 Solo Mode situation, it’s hard to say that the decoy will do much beyond allowing the enemy to infer a Mirage’s location based on the direction the decoy r

The opponent isn't extremely clear in the image above, but is extremely pronounced in the video. It appears as though the gun and its bullets caused a graphical interference that tricked the player into thinking the opponent somehow disappeared. It's also possible that some lag on the enemy's side contributed to this as well. One common result of lag is that it results in choppy gameplay, which appears to other players as short-distance teleportati

"Wraith was the hardest character for me to find the focus on," he says in the video. "The voices in the head presented, like, a real problem because our game is a sci-fi game. It's not a fantasy… so it can't be, like, spiri

While not ideal for team play, coordinated teams can still use this noisiness to their advantage. A loud Bloodhound can provide a distraction to opposing teams, allowing the non-Bloodhound players to quickly pick off enemies as they reveal themsel
