While any loot-centric battle royale title is bound to yield a few situations in which you're poorly equipped (or outright weaponless) after the drop, it's definitely a little out of hand with World's Edge, and more than a few players are venting their frustrations after being forced to attend a gunfight with nothing but their fi

This is great because it offers a real incentive to risking a lengthy kill animation for fallen foes outside of bragging rights. You can safely expect to be executed a lot more often and in riskier situations, and should a lot more than tempted to do the same in k

The Executioner perk that was attached to the golden armor (which restored shields upon successful finishing moves) always felt a little lackluster compared to the rest of the golden items. Now, however, it'll be practically indispensable, as it has the Fast Use perk formerly attached to the backpack, which allows the wearer to use consumables twice as f

At the start of Season 2, an outage at Repulsor allowed wildlife to enter the arena . The fact that someone had destroyed the tower meant animals were free to roam the area. This included beasts like flyers and leviath

This shows no distinguishing features. However, the fact that Caustic is able to walk through and trap players in the space shows that this location may feel similar to the Bunker location on the original

King's Canyon definitely had its nooks and crannies for crafty players to tuck themselves into to avoid a fight or prepare an ambush, but the sheer number of hiding spots and crevices in World's Edge is almost unreal in compari

A word of caution for those who might be ready to upgrade their setup. If you’ve never used professional esports-level gear like this before, there will be a bit of an adjustment period. The sensitivity and responsiveness of the Viper and Hunstman were unlike anything I’ve ever played on before, but soon became second nature. As long as you’re willing to put in the time to learn the ins-and-outs of your new gear, you’ll soon see just how advantageous Razer’s newest products can be in regards to your gamep

This one's extremely easy to overlook, but it's also one of the coolest and most underrated features of the drone. While piloting the drone, looking at the banners that conventionally display the match's current kill leader will see the display replaced by a readout showing how many squads are in the drone's current flight a

The key difference, however, is that during the "charge-up" period it emits a small laser that rapidly deals small amounts of damage, before dealing a big chunk with the main shot. It's an obvious telegraph, but has huge damage potential. It's excellent for counter-sniping, forcing enemies to either rapidly change positions or suffer crippling dam

Finally, one of the most impressive features of the keyboard is its onboard memory, Ps5 Weapons allowing players to activate up to five of their keyboard configurations while on-the-go. This can also be achieved via cloud storage, but a localized memory at least allows for offline p

Instead of being a flat point reward, the points from kills will now benefit from placement "multipliers." For example, placing fifth pays out 30 RP, and has a kill multiplier of 15. This means that getting four kills in that game would've netted 60 points, for a total of 90. It still caps out at five kills, but provides way more incentive to actually get those ki

With the announcement of the Iron Crown Packs, players seem to have hit their limit of consumer exploitation. As a limited-time event, players only have a small window to collect that cosmetics that they may want, of which there are 24. Each player can complete a set of tasks to be awarded two of these packs, but the remainder cost about $7 each in real mo

According to this logic, loot boxes are beloved for the surprise mechanics they provide, and not for the items within. It is this kind of ridiculous spin that drives consumers away, but EA does not seem capable of learning their lesson on the matter, or, rather, they choose to ignore the calls for cha

If coordinated with the rest of your squad , using it as a setup to ambush an entrenched team puts you in the perfect position to start and end the fight very quickly. However, coordination is absolutely key to taking getting the most out of it, because while it's a critical advantage, it can be overturned within the span of a few seco

The Anvil Receiver ups the damage for semi-automatic fire on the R301 and Flatline, giving them more utility as marksman rifles. The Double Tap Trigger, perhaps most interestingly, causes the EVA-8 and Scout to fire two round bur

Upon taking the Razer Viper out of its box, I immediately fell in love. The lightweight mouse - coming in at a weight of 69g - feels durable enough to withstand frantic motion and heavy-handed clicking, while the comfortable side grips ensure that I won’t need to worry about my thumb accidentally sliding at an inopportune in-game mom
