BattleRush 2

BattleRush 2

I just played Battlerush 2 for a few hours and had a good time, considering it’s a very early version.

To start off with the elephant in the room, I must admit it felt strange to see “Battlerush 2” announced, after the first part got stuck in a beta state without any updates in the last months. Since a few friends and me already spend a few bucks for the DLCs to BR1, it looked like a fishy business strategy to release part two at this point.

The price of BR2 convinced me to buy it anyways. Many people disliked the simple graphics of the first part and never gave it a fair judgement, so a “fresh start” can be justified to a certain degree in the end.

With a great idea we have a great game!

For me BattleRush 2 is fantastic, I always liked to have freedom in games and in this game I have a lot. In this game I have the freedom to attack, build, strengthen the base or create my own base, or work to have my own war tank.

The graphics are excellent and the constructions are totally destructible, you can put dynamite and blow up everything you see, and I really really like doing it :D

Some adjustments are required, but we are only at the beginning of the game and one of the most positive points is that the game has daily updates with bug fixes, textures, sounds and more and we can suggest these changes through the group at Discord and that is wonderful.

Park Bound

I can’t believe I found this game. It is truly amazing! More people should know about this!

This game is basically Super Mario Maker for the PC, but in 3D. At first glance, it may be a simple game with simple graphics and textures, but that’s because it makes it easier to make levels! When you look past that, you enter an amazing game with loads of potential! You can create your own hub worlds, your own levels, or shall we say, parks. You can make parks that have obby courses, a place to just hang out and chat, an open world level, it is what YOU decide! You can play other people’s levels too!

Overview:

I happened to come across this game not too long ago and, having now played 400+ hours of it, I’m really glad I did. The gameplay is fun, the community is welcoming, the creation tools are flexible, and the developer (Bambastic Games) is friendly and attentive to the game and its players. That’s the abridged review, so now for the details:

Quick Note for Parents:

This online game allows all players to type chat messages to each other and create almost anything they want in their own levels. The developer can moderate content whenever possible, but the potential for inappropriate content to eventually surface will always be present in games of this nature. Fortunately, the community tries to stray away from producing questionable content. However, I still highly recommend adult supervision for younger gamers during online play in ANY game. Safety first!

Steel Team: Academy

Steel Team: Academy

“Steel Team: Academy” is a MOBA variation of an artillery shooter with elements of strategy.

Battles are one-on-one or in teams with gunfights using various weapons - from conventional machine guns to extremely powerful missile strikes.

Sounds Like A Classic Artillery Shooter? Oh Yeah!

But That’s Not All.

The easy-to-learn gameplay is becoming incredibly diverse due to the use of a variety of robots with unique characteristics (defined by their tactical roles) and ultimate skills and various game modes: single and team battles for control over key locations, fighting with resource collection, battles against monsters and - in some perspectives - battles for control over territories.

What Makes Our Game Special?

  • Balanced weapons lineup designated for particular tactical situations

  • Different robots (with various characteristics and unique ultimate capabilities)

  • Different types of games:

o single-player and multi-player battles for control over key locations,

o single-player battles with collecting resources,

o solo battles against monsters,

o global wars for control over territories

Why Moba?

Despite the fact that this definition is usually used for DotA-like games, we think it is time we went beyond the usual borders.

Our games have the following components that are necessary for a cyber-sports arena:

  • A match selection system that takes into account each individual player’s levels of experience

  • The opportunity to communicate and make friends in the game, create your own team

  • Ranking games for experienced players

  • WAR OF CLANS - battles on the global map for control over separate planets and zones on the planets (in the full version)

We are creating a game for hardcore fans and for people who like this type of unique gameplay and who are not afraid of challenges.

The Elder Scrolls Online - Blackwood

The Elder Scrolls Online - Blackwood

  • English –—————————————————————————————-

READ THIS BEFORE PURCHASING ‘Upgrade’ VERSION

TL;DR: only buy the ‘Upgrade’ version if you’re just only missing the Blackwood DLC and you already have everything else

I am writing this review to solve the conflicting comments.

I brought the ‘Upgrade’ version as I only pocessed the base game.

The Blackwwod description mention that it includes the previous extensions (Morrowind, Summerset, Elsweyr and Greymoor).

I got scammed! I just bought the base game 3 days ago. I enjoyed it, so I opted to purchase the “Blackwood Collector’s Edition upgrade”. There was another item for $10 more called “Blackwood Collector’s Edition” which includes “The Elder Scrolls Online base game, Blackwood, Greymoor, Elsweyr, Summerset, and Morrowind Chapters and Digital CE Contents”. Since I already had the base game, I opted for the upgrade.

Oh boy. When I logged it, only Blackwood was included. The other DLC such as Greymoor, Elsweyr, etc. were missing. This is very misleading. I just got back into gaming after a couple of years and I’m met with this crap.

Prime World: Defenders 2

Prime World: Defenders 2

the first one was FAR better quality. everything looks a lot uglier in this supposed sequel… and a lot of the game is not even clearly explained (like how fusing works after you get the max number of available towers). try it for free, but won’t recommend spending anything on it.


edit: devs commented, so i guess i should reply them. since they replied, i reinstalled the game to refresh myself on what i disliked about the game. here are the specifics:

1. this was mentioned in one of the highly-upvoted reviews - the “pvp” mechanic is mostly opaque… you have no idea how you ended up matched to these other people, and if they happen to grind their levels hard, your towers will almost always lose those higher-levelled mines.

Recommended ONLY in free mode. I mean it, if you pay even a small amount to buy things, it ruins it completely.

The shop is annoying and the game is blatantly P2W, so I was expecting to write a thumbs down review a day in and uninstall it for good. Instead, discovered it is a helluva good TD game in the genre. If it had just the real-money shop removed and sell it for like Sol Survivor, It would go with high recommendation without doubt.

I advise to read the excellent guide before engaging, it has good tips on resource good allocation, that is important from the start.

Trackmania® Turbo

Trackmania® Turbo

When I first reviewed this game I was a bit “hot headed” because even though I knew this game was a console port, I didn’t expect it to lack so many features from the previous games. But after playing it so much I decided to change my review.

Why should you buy this game? (This is mostly aimed to new players to the Trackmania series)

-First and foremost, the game is really fun

-New Double Driver mode

-New Stunt mode

-You can create challenges and publish them for the world to see

-As an arcade game, Turbo is really easy for anyone to get into it and have fun, but its gameplay also has depth, so the possibilities are almost infinity and it will take you a long time to master the gameplay of each environment

Real player with 274.1 hrs in game

Trackmania Turbo is fun, I’ll keep it that simple. But there’s something that needs to be made clear:

This game is not made for creative players who enjoy getting the best out of trackmania. This game is made for the more casual side of players who want nothing more than pure gameplay. If you want a larger range of customization (car, map and replay-wise), more community focused events on anything Trackmania, you should get (one of) the individual trackmania² environments, or Trackmania Nations/United. If you’re here for racing on all environments into one, simply beating times and having a mere joy on several maps. This game might be the one for you.

Battle Tanks: Legends of World War II

Battle Tanks: Legends of World War II

Steaming pile of crap.

Sorry, but this game is out to milk you for ever penny it can. At first it’s great fun, but as you go up the ranks, you will loose more and more silver forcing you to spend real money buying more. I can win 200,000 silver in a game and not get one bit of it because of how the game is weighed against the players. You upgrade your tanks to max and you’d have thought that would mean you win more silver as your skills also improve, but no. I was 6th on the country on the board and even then I wasn’t making enough silver to sustain the game without spending real money.

The game is simple and nice until players start using gold and premium stuff. The imbalance is so great that the game becomes stupid. There is no skill contest, but only who has more gold . Its horror ! And one more thing, the russian tanks can do outrageous things when compared with the germans in terms of mobility So, the game is really nice for the first 3-4 levels, when is really fun and dynamic. As you climb the tech tree and you reach tier 10 it’s horror if you don’t have gold.

It’s also very imbalanced in terms of normal and premium vehicles.

IMPORTANT!!! READ IT ALL BEFORE YOU START!!!

This game had a lot of petential.

Apparently though the game IS TOTALLY UNFAIR TO STEAM USERS !

It does not allow steam users to have access if they choose to materials from my.loot page and some are essenssial if you do not have the time or the party to play the hardest dungeons, or simply if you just are not such a pro gamer like me and you just enjoy playing after work to blow off some steam^^.

Also steam users do not have any opportunity to get newsletter gifts simply because there is NO OPTION on main site to link your e-mail. You have to send a ticket even for that.

Music: 5/10 - A lot left to be desired here. But number one would have to be technical stability. I gave it a 5 because half the time it’s working fine, and then half the time it’s not. I wish I could score this higher, but due to game glitches it’s hardly ever working properly. Occasionally, your sound will bug out after a few hours of play (due to a memory leak) and all you’ll hear is your avatars heavy breathing accented with loud ambient sound effects like birds chirping. “The only fix to this is a client reboot..” And that’s an official response from support. But from what limited BGM can be heard it sounds nice enough, It’s just not consistently working. I find that to be a huge immersion breaker, and a real inconvenience if your used to using audio que’s for mechanics (IE. The jumps in Grand Bulwark)
