I digress. First, let’s talk about the female characters – practically all of them look the goddamn same. Outliers like Mei and Zarya notwithstanding, almost every single female character, regardless of nationality, ethnicity, or occupation, are identical in both facial characteristics and body type. A gruff military woman hailing from Egypt has the same ass and bust and weight of an introverted teenage hacker from Mexico, a socially awkward Indian mathematician, a dumb white cowgirl, a Swedish welder, a German doctor, a professional gamer from Korea, a French sniper, a white whatever-the-fuck Tracer is, et cet

So developers, stop with the fall damage already. No one likes it, and even when it makes sense, it's not something that people look forward to. And if you're worried about players scoffing over your protagonist's immersion-shattering gravity defiance, just add in a storyline reason for why they can land safely. Many games have come up with solid answers to this problem. In Portal , Chell wears special shoes that reduce impact. In Deus Ex: Human Revolution , Adam Jenson can acquire a special ability that creates an electromagnetic field that slows his desc

Update 9.1 also adds the new map, Paramo, which features an active volcano and flowing lava across the landscape. It's also partly procedurally generated, so the new PUBG map feels different every time you play. However, because of the ever-shifting nature of the map, it's located in a separate matchmaking pool called Seasonal Match. Wins here will not count towards your sta

Get used to use this system, and use it a lot. You might not want a piece of loot, but your teammates might. You can give suggestions on where to go and remind allies of useful map features. Perhaps most importantly, you can give warnings if you spot an en

Fall damage is often added as an extra obstacle for you to worry about, but it's never an engaging part of any game. At best, your stumble will cost you a small portion of your life bar forcing you to soldier on with what health you have left or waste one of your healing items. At worst, the damage will kill you, causing you to swear at your TV out of frustration and wait for the annoying loading screen to finish so you can painfully make your way back to where you were. No matter what it does, it adds nothing but a moment of irritation that delays your progress. In short, it makes a fun game less

The Training Mode in both games is also slightly different. PUBG Mobile has Training Camp, while PUBG has Camp Jackal. Camp Jackal is significantly larger than Training Camp, meaning practicing long rang battles and driving cars will be much easier on PUBG . However, players can still use Training Camp to practice their mobile aim and driving ski

PUBG Mobile also lacks in the interior design aspect. There is little-to-no design inside houses, and a simple rug and shelf seems to be the only thing that decorates most interiors. Meanwhile, PUBG is much more detailed, with lots of additional decoration located around the walls and in the rooms. PUBG even adds extra small rooms like bathrooms or closet to fill empty space, whereas PUBG Mobile just leaves these spots o

As cheesy as it sounds, the most important thing in a match isn’t the guns or loot, but your friends. A squad of one or two will have a much harder time than a squad of three. If your teammates get knocked down they can no longer fight, but can move. You can get them up again, but its best to eliminate the enemy first, or at least get another teammate to protect you while you while you revive your teammate behind co

apex e district map Legends starts every match with a team of three jetpacking down to the map out of a dropship. One team member is selected as the "Jumpmaster" who gets to decide when to jump and aims where to land. If nothing is happening, it means you might be the Jumpmas

Generally, loot tends to be divided into guns, upgrades for guns, ammo, protective gear and healing items, though there are some other special kinds of loot (such as mobile respawn beacons or boosters for ultimate abilities). One thing many don’t learn until later is that you can actually open your inventory with "I" – so feel free to grab loot now and dump what you don’t need la

Elsewhere, the patch introduced a new Ranked mode for solo players, meaning you can now climb the rankings on your own. It's a good time to start, too, since this marks the beginning of Season 9 and ranks have been reset along with leaderboards. Here are the new rules for Ranked Mode Seaso

But even the outliers have their own problems. Ana, an elderly woman in a sick-ass headscarf, gets a skin that makes her younger and sexier. Mei seems kind of portly, until you put on literally anything other than her default outfit and realize, huh, she’s actually just got a pretty conventionally acceptable hourglass figure and enormous tits. The only one I can give any props to, really, is Zarya. Despite the silly boob armor, she genuinely bucks conventional design trends with it comes to female characters, both in terms of personality and physicality. She’s more in line with the wild diversity present in the male characters, and I really do wish that diversity was represented in the female charact
