TheGamer News Team s Favorite Games Of 2019
Apex Legends Walkthrough Legends made a powerful debut Q1 of 2019, EA opting for a bold "no marketing" tactic. Embodying the trends of 2019 by building on the popular battle royale genre, Apex Legends released on Windows, PS4, and Xbox One for free. Streamers contributed to the game’s success, but players stuck around due to the unique incorporation of ability-based heroes and a wonderfully addicting set of movement mechanics. Apex barely edges this one out due to Respawn’s slow-moving developmental support, but the fact that competitives and casuals alike have stuck around is a testament to the game’s impressive fundament
You would not want to play Gibraltar the same way as the illusive Wraith character, who's playstyle is about flanking enemies. Her elusive abilities make her an excellent choice for a player who excels at a harassing or assassin style of p
Top Apex Legends players are making impassioned pleas for game developer Respawn to do away will skill-based matchmaking (SBMM). From their perspectives, it’s not fair that public matches feel as competitive — if not more competitive — than ranked games . This is indeed problematic, as ranked exists specifically so top players can compete at a top-tier level. Players who play public matches shouldn’t be subject to the same level of competitive p
To be sure, people have their own dating horror stories . But the rejection is real when your duos partner abandons you for a better duo partner like my friend Lootscifer did when our friend Goldy logged
Bangalore gets a snazzy militaristic skin that goes well with her various militaristic poses. Meanwhile, Bloodhound is… blue, a nice blue. Or is it turquoise? Or seafoam green? Whatever it is, it’s lov
A good Apex or even battle royale player will never stay in the same spot for long periods of time. This goes for long-range and short-range fights, as staying in the same location for too long will spell an untimely death for a player. Be sure to always move around even if you hold an advantageous position over an enemy squad, as it may be the right amount of movement to avoid an enemy t
It would be fascinating to see Destiny on the small screen, as there are a myriad of storylines that explore different planets and realities. Like the games, a show could explore these narratives from the perspective of a Guardian. Different seasons could reflect the events of different expansions (I'd love more than anything to see a made-for-TV retelling of the events from the original Destiny 's The Taken King expansi
If your date goes well, it may even end with some hanky panky. But the duos session with a random teammate you found on Destiny Tracker is more likely to end with you quitting because his kid is screaming in the background and he doesn't seem to understand the purpose of his mic's mute but
There’s so much to unpack in this series that Destiny lore expert Byf suggested focusing on a single character’s story would be a better way to explore this deep, impactful narrative. That works for us, as long the one who gets his own show is the Hunter Vanguard we lost in Forsaken , Cayde-6 (press F to pay respec
What separates a bad player from an excellent one in Apex is their understanding of the movement mechanics in the game. Learning how to slide, crouch, jump or climb over walls can establish a clear and explicit gap in skill between your competit
The following is full of assumptions and made-up but easy-to-understand numbers. The goal is to illustrate the math driving the SMBB argument as there’s no accurate game data publicly available for these calculati
You see, my sweet boyfriend is extremely analytical. He addresses challenges head-on and is very good at understanding nuance. Game physics are second nature to him. In fact, his technical approach to gaming is such that it once earned him a spot on a competitive Counter-Strike team, where he and his teammates earned cash in underground tourname
Take for example the legend Gibraltar, this character is a functional "tank" style character. Equipped with a powerful shield when firing down his iron sites, Gibraltar is an extremely durable character who can cover himself and his teammates. Coupled with his powerful bubble shield, Gibraltar is the first line of defense for his teammates and a useful support character for a sq
For the Grand Soirée event, Respawn has overhauled its reward tracking system. Each of these modes will have their own challenges that will award you points. These points will then be put toward a prize track that will unlock special Soirée-related rewards for every milestone you hit. You can earn up to 1000 points from challenges in each mode, and players will complete battle pass challenges by playing these modes as well. As an added bonus, you’ll also receive a special badge for trying out each of these special modes, which is great because everyone loves a good ba
