This year, the networks have presented a slew of new shows, with ABC and CBS offering a surprising amount of never-before-seen programming to their lineups.

But the pilot continues to add elements that the story's mostly solid foundation just isn't equipped to handle.

As mentioned before, most of the Act of Valor cast members are actual SEALs. However, there are a few familiar faces (and voices) in the crowd, including Roselyn Sanchez ( Rush Hour 2 ), Emilio Rivera ( Sons of Anarchy ), Nestor Serrano ( 24 ) and Call of Duty video game series voice actor Alex Vea


Act of Valor was scripted by Kurt Johnstad ( 300 ) and is reportedly based on several real-life incidents involving Navy SEALs. Those stories were thereafter reconstructed and tied together to form the film's central narrative, which follows the Bandito Platoon as it works in collaboration with the C.I.A. and sets out to stop a global terrorist plot that threatens to result in the coordinated killing of thousands of U.S. civili


Recently, more information about what sort of skins players can expect from Valorant at launch has come to light. According to a video from Qwixzo , the YouTube channel of IGN Nordic staffer Nick Nijland, Riot is adding a weapon skin to Valorant based on Urf the manatee. Urf is a joke character that Riot claimed was going to be added to the game as part of an April Fool’s Day joke, but has instead become the mascot of League of Legends ’ Ultra Rapid Fire mode. Qwixzo reports that the Urf skins will be based on the appearance of NERF g


There's a twist to the classic tactical shooter experience: players will be able to choose from a set of agents all with their own unique skills and abilities - not unlike League of Legends - that hail from real-world locations and cultures. The abilities will not only change the way of shooting as the most basic principle; they will also provide strategic advantages, as well as tactical support. The game will be based on an attackers vs defenders style, set on a near-future Earth, with unique tactical opportunities enabled by each character's skill


The problems with Valor 's pilot stem largely from how many threads it attempts to weave into the series' tapestry, and how amorphous the show ultimately feels as a result. The opens with the story of a secret mission in Somalia flown by an elite U.S. Army group known as the Shadow Raiders that ends disastrously and leaves only Warrant Officer Nora Madani (Ochoa) and Captain Leland Gallo (Matt Barr) alive. The two leave behind one of their team members, Jimmy Kam (W. Tre' Davis), who falls into the hands of a group of terrorists. Following a time jump, the pilot moves back to the States, where Nora is recovering from her injuries – both physically and psychologically – while also dealing with the secret she and Gallo have been keeping about the truth surrounding their failed miss


There’s a lot about Riot’s upcoming FPS **Valorant ** that’s still being kept under wraps, but according to one source, the developer has revealed one bizarre weapon skin based on the quirky League of Legends joke character, Urf. Valorant is already being talked about as major competition for games like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and Overwatch , despite so little being known about


Riot , the company behind the massively popular MOBA League of Legends , has announced their new first-person shooter called VALORANT, previously known as Project A . The character-based tactical shooter will be a free to play, 5v5, best of 24 rounds gunfight. It is coming in Summer 2020 to most global regions with a proprietary anti-cheat technology that is supposed to guarantee a more rewarding gaming experie


All that said: Act of Valor is clearly meant to be foremost a visceral documentary-style experience that effectively illustrates the nature of the SEAL lifestyle and shows just how difficult that job is, both emotionally and physically. So long as the movie can manage that task in a balanced fashion that simply reflects the true nature of Navy SEALs daily life (without either excessively glorifying or vilifying it) it should turn out well eno


All in all, Riot seems to be taking its vision for League of Legends further into the gaming sphere, but unlike Legends of Runeterra , this one seems to be moving away from that world. Considering the fact that it will be free-to-play, there seems to be absolutely no reason to not pick it up - especially if you're a fan of the rest of their work - and see for yourself whether it's worth your time. As of right now, it seems to be too early to tell - but as usual, we're optimistically looking forward to


Today, we have a new TV spot for Act of Valor , as well as a five-minute long featurette that offers a better look at the overall filmmaking style of the project, along with the hazardous locations, up-to-date Navy technology/vehicles, and physically-exhausting combat maneuvers on display in the mo
