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


Sam Worthington’s second clash with the titans debuted to disappointing results in second place. **Wrath of the Titans ** should see out the weekend with $34.2 million, a far cry from the $61 million that Clash of the Titans banked in 2010 - that film went on to gross $163 million at the domestic box office and another $330 million in foreign markets. Jonathan Liebesman called the shots on the $150 million sequel, with most reviews ( read ours ) indicating that it is an improvement on its predecessor. Domestically the film won’t hit the heights of its predecessor, but it should score the bulk of its green around the world - it has already done over $112 million globa


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


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


For whatever reason, the suspending of disbelief required to invest in either lead as actual soldiers feels like a step too far. Given the kind of programming The CW is known for, perhaps that's what stymied previous efforts to bring a military drama to the network. There's no reason a military drama can't be blended with a soapy melodrama, but Valor doesn't seem to have the right formula just yet.
