Having not played CODBLOPS @meauxdal can you tell me how the UI/interface in this game compares to BO4? In the other thread you mentioned you liked the vehicles in Black Ops. Are there any other aspects you think are superior?
i haven’t played blackout enough to know for sure, but the time-to-kill is significantly shorter in that game. dunno if that’s cause for it being “better”, but it usually means less downtime and more chaos. less of the cat-and-mouse you get in this game sometimes where you can’t quite take someone down before they can regroup and heal/revive/etc. BO4’s guns are also maginally better than the ones in AL, though i think i like the meaty SFX of AL more.
but really it’s mostly the vehicles i miss. taking big jumps in a four-wheeler is hard to go without! well, that and this game forces 3v3, whereas in BO4 you can do duos. duos is really fun and i miss that too!
all that said, i think the possibility of respawning in this game makes things more interesting. i don’t even know what the abilities do in BO4, tbh, but i do like the abilities in AL thus far.
i mean, if anyone wants to play some duos with me on PC blackout, i can come up with a better comparison! i need more time with both games, but especially blackout.
as far as the UI specifically, idk, these modern UIs largely blend together. i don’t really like AL’s UI, though. the menus in particular are awful to navigate.
oh, oh, the ping system! blackout doesn’t have that, and it’s great. this game also has (currently) far less skilled players. blackout, maybe by nature of not being free, is more likely to torment you with non-stop deaths while you’re learning the ropes. AL is a little more forgiving because the playerbase is not quite as high-skill at this exact moment in time, based on my brief time with both games. hell, i actually won a game in AL and have never come close in blackout
I think I really like this game? but I can’t imagine getting into it as a long term thing. I might just like it bc my team won the second match I ever I played. got nice pink and purple skin for the robot and imo the zipline is the easiest ability to cause shenanigans with, so I’ll probably only play that character if possible.
i really like this game even tho all my wins are from lv20+s carrying me. i mostly play bangalore because haircut and explosions but i play lifeline sometimes too
i tell myself my “toss tons of grenades, strategize later” approach is helping flush other squads out but ehhhh
either way, if you like explosions and questionable battle tactics, my psn is thevinculumgate. i’m usually around 7-10ish PST
