Warzone
Laying as many enemies as possible is a usual task for fans of "shooters", but sometimes you want riddles with surprises in the course of the same advance. Developers from Infinity Ward and Raven Software tried to create a game that would satisfy both of these desires. The result was "Warzone", better known as "Call of Duty: Warzone", with 2 modes - "Loot" and "Battle Royale", where up to 150 players can fight online.
Game Features
"Warzone" is the second after "Blackout", where the developers did not deviate from the principles of military strategy. Events take place in the fictional town of Verdansk and its districts.
And we made 2 modes a trick:
- Battle Royale. Gamers try to survive on a map where the space is constantly shrinking. They are landing everyone in a wide area, so that everyone has a chance to survive, collecting and improving weapons. Where it is no longer possible to fight, the zone is filled with green gas, which takes away health, so it will definitely not be possible to sit in ambush.
- Loot. Here the bet is placed on the in-game currency, for which you can buy the necessary items.
The game is not about economics or diplomacy, but there are more than enough technologies, modifications and projects to create units and structures. The developers have taken care of an uncomplicated interface, three-dimensional graphics, a high-quality map that can be studied from different viewing angles. Plus - special effects that include fog, smoke, fire and lighting.
Warzone Terms
The game was divided into 3 companies, the action takes place in the desert, city and mountains. There is also a training mission for the players to find out how to develop the base and manage the units.
Now a little more about the game in different modes:
- In a battle royale, if a character dies, it is not a complete defeat. Revival is provided, moreover, in 2 ways. In the first, the dead end up in the GULAG, where they fight with other dead, everyone has the same weaponry. The winner has the right to return to the game. The second option is to buy revival coupons.
- In mining mode, gamers need to look for currency that is scattered around the area. The group that collected a million is transferred to overtime, where it can increase wealth by 1.5 times. Those who have accumulated more money win, and the characters are automatically revived here.
Weapon stats
All participants start the war with one "firearm" - the X16 pistol, it is permissible to improve it during the game. You can exchange it for a more powerful weapon, as an option - rummage through the ammunition boxes that you can find. The most popular among gamers are:
- MP7. Easiest to find, shoots perfectly. Large magazine, high rate of fire.
- MP5. It gives more damage, but the recoil is an order of magnitude higher, especially in long-range combat. The store is slightly smaller.
- RCM. The canopy is already more impressive, up to 200 ammunition in the store, good for ranged combat. The only problem is that it reduces the player's mobility, and also switches slowly. But for tracking the enemy - that's it.
- PP19 Bizon. Chosen for close and medium range combat, has 64 rounds.
- AK47. The Kalashnikov assault rifle has been out of competition with real military personnel for many years, it is also good in the game. But to find such a firearm is somewhat more difficult, since it is more advantageous in terms of damage and power.
- Dragunov rifle. Option for a sniper, but not the best aiming.
What to expect from the soldiers?
In the new "toy" the enemy is no longer pushing ahead, but shows signs of intelligence, coupled with logic. For example, if the first time they attacked the bastion, then the second time they will flank or arrange a secret raid. Moreover, with a diversionary blow in the main direction, while the sabotage group is working in the rear. And they are also able to take out oil rigs or other industrial facilities, or capture them, putting up powerful protection. So just running around and firing is not enough here, you still have to be a tactician and strategist.
As for their units, the picture is less rosy here. In the sense that they need to be led constantly. If the team moves from one point to another and runs into an obstacle on the way, they will stand until they are again shown the direction. And in the process of the game, it terribly interferes and angers. They can still mark time, which, when repairing towers, drives gamers to a frenzy. But they know how to shoot back when attacking.
Small pitfalls from the developers in Warzone
The authors of the game also threw in such a "plug" as preserving the state of the belligerents, which does not allow gamers to relax even after the end of the mission. And all because the wounded soldiers and destroyed buildings after the transition remain in the same condition, and it is necessary to puzzle again how to heal, place and rebuild. Not to mention whether it is worth completing the mission on such a chord. In general, everything is, as they say, "according to the truth of life."
Therefore, when starting this game, it is already necessary to think over how to finish it. But, in any case, getting a release is real, and the presence of 2 modes still gives you the opportunity to rest between intense battles. Without interrupting your progress in Warzone.
