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


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


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


Turns out Riot Games' latest class-based first-person shooter, **Valorant ** , is optimized for high performance on even the lowest-end PC rigs. With exciting news floating around the gaming community after Valorant Skins|https://Valorantfocus.com/'s latest press release, gamers are readying themselves for its summer 2020 release d


Additionally, Riot is working to make the gameplay as smooth and rewarding as possible: there is supposed to be less than 30-millisecond ping for at least 70% of players globally, upsampling all player movements to 128 FPS - even if they're lagging in reality - and anti-cheat technology that includes a fog of war (omitting player locations until they're within the line of sight), along with the League of Legends anti-tamper system, plus a new cheat detection tool called Vangu


Unlike most other military films, Valor starred real SEALs conducting missions, many of which were based on true stories. But these military heroes didn’t abandon their duties or become celebrities after making the film. In fact, as Denver told me, these SEALs have gone back into action since the film finished shooting. He no


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.
