Apocalypse Board Review Chess Pieces That
By Vincent Haoson (Vincenthaoson), Onrpg writer Apocalypse Board Online is a strategy browser MMO from Nightmakers. The game circles around the battle between good and evil in the world which are symbolized by Angels and Demons. Your part in all this is to use either Angels or Demons in a chessboard like battle of supremacy. Units in Apocalypse Board Online are like chess pieces. The difference is that the upper parts of the pieces are either Angels or Demons. You play on a chessboard like it's a battlefield and the game is turn-based. The player who has units left on the board wins. Each battle gives corresponding experience for your units and like normal MMOs, your units also level up. As your units level up they get tougher and their attacks get stronger. You can also purchase units that are well-suited to your playing style just as long as it doesn’t go over the initial space that you are provided with. Angels have ten units available you can use. They are namely: assassin, baedal, fortress, knight, mon, stormspeller, wizard, titan, dancer and priestess. As a starting line-up for those who belong to the angel side, you get to have an assassin, a fortress, a knight and a wizard all of which start of as level 1 units. You can buy the other classes from the judge as long as you have enough gold in your account. The demons on the other hand have only four units that you can use. They are: the psychodemon, nightmaker, howler and the pyrodemon. For the demon’s starting lineup you get to have one unit of each class. You can also buy other units of the same type from the judge as well. To start off a battle in Apocalypse Board Online, you have to go to the Pit to where there are 15 pillars where you can put your avatar. The avatars are either an angel or a demon and they represent the side you belong to. Besides the 15 pillars the game also has 5 arenas to choose from, so if one arena is full then you can just move on to the next and so on. Once another player clicks your pillar or you click a pillar with a single avatar the battle ensues. The game’s battle system is turn based and there is a timeline where you can see which unit moves first. You are allotted 30 seconds to move if it's your turn and if you don’t move within the time the game automatically ends your turn and the next unit to move is next. Once you character’s turn is over, you will immediately see that the battlefield will emit blue boxes, this would serve as your character’s movable areas. Once you finish moving, or stay put you can do the various actions your unit can do. Whoever loses all his units first in a battle loses, and each battle, whether you win or lose, would give your unites experience points and even gold that you can use. Apocalypse Board Online is a game that’s simple yet very addictive especially if you are into tactical games. The units look like chess pieces that were given heads of angels or demons depending which side you choose. The game is a refreshing view on the battle between good and evil which has been symbolized by the use of the most commonly used symbolisms which are namely the angel for good and the demons for evil. However, this concept of good and evil doing battle on a chess board like setting has its drawbacks. The novelty of using angels and demons as chess pieces in this came would immediately wear off and that the core problems of the game would emerge. For one thing, Apocalypse Board Online has a very low population. Normally, this wouldn’t be much of a problem especially for browser based games. The problem is that you can’t go into battle if you have no one to fight with. The game is highly dependent on the amount of players who are currently logged into the arena. Without them you’re will stare at a blank arena for who knows how long. The game’s next problem would be the lack of GMs. Usually this isn’t much of an issue for browser games, however, for Alpocalypse Board Online, I think this would help a lot for players to make them at least try and enjoy the whole game experience. The game is already slow-paced and it would help at least that you can hear some tunes besides the game SFX. Another thing about the game is that at first glance things would seem a bit unbalanced especially in the number of units per side. The angels have ten types of different units while the demons have only four. Of course there’s this saying that goes that it’s not the number of units that win a war, it's how you use them, but having this clear imbalance in unit types can discourage people from using demons or even try out the game. Apocalypse Board Online tries to balance out the unit distribution by making demons stronger on later levels. This counter balance of units may seem good at first glance, but this definitely leads to further balance issues on later stages of the game especially when players get to have higher levels. As of the moment though it seems everything is still working swell. As a strategy game, Apocalypse Board Online is a good game that you can try out. Even with the balance issues that may haunt the game, the biggest problem it faces is its low population. As long as the game has no subscribers the game might as well be dead. No people in the game means no battles and what would a strategy game be if there are no battles to strategize? Pros:
- The game is easy to understand
- Simple gameplay
- A new look to strategy games
Cons:
- Low population
- Slow-paced gameplay
- Camera view hinders the playing field

RAKION ( KOREAN )
Not much time so I am going to make this quick.
Graphics: Not to shabby , most computars of the modern world could run this game smoothly.But there is no Grafics options , so you must plrmtaom there settings.The character models are very nicly done..Every character had detail down to the very finger tips..And not to mention the animations are soo smooth..No runescape movement in this..(lol)...7/10
Gameplay: This where the game shines its brightess..This will keep you involved in whats going..Instead of watching TV waiting for you character to kill a monster..Basiclyrmt combat , is using both the mouse and the W A S D keys in sync..You move with the W A S D keys and do most attacks with the mouse..But a few attacks require both..And if you miss..ITS YOUR FAULT...But missing usally ends up getting badly hurt..Becuase someone will come up and grab you ( very pleasing to see :) ] Each class will have its special abilities per button combinations..But most of the time the differnce is the animation or the delay time after the attack..Because , delay means you Cant attack , Cant move , or block..Which usally..is bad!..There are a few glitches with some attacks but most of the time its fine...NOTE: you do join rooms to play..Like gunz::::9/10
Sound: Theres not really much to talk about..Theres 3-4 drnt background songs..And a variety of sword clashes , and so on... 5/10
Classes/Races: There are 5 classes...They are: Swordsmen , Ninja , Mage , archer , and blacksmith...They all are stuck the gender they are asigned..Some of yoou might not like this , but please dont complain..Every class differs in size , weapon and armor , and so on..There alsono custimization.Which is needed....7/10
Items: Not many..You can buy : Basic armor ( chest and legs ) , Helmets , Gloves , shoulder s, summons ( monster that fight for you ] , Necklaces , ranged weapons ( the ones asigned to your class ) , and melee weapons ( asigned to your class ).
A very good game...Beware tho , make sure you have time to finish a gameey can last more than 2 hours...

Crimecraft Bleedout- 2011 ReReview
。
。
First, you’re obviously going to need a tough look for yourself when hitting up the streets, but that’s probably going to have to wait since the initial customization options are a bit lacking. For both male and female characters, you only get a handful of hairs, faces, shirts, shoes, etc. After cycling through the ormtps and hitting the” randomize” button a few times, I managed to find a somewhat decent look, but still couldn’t help but feel like my new dude came straight out of a mental ward.。
。
Powered by Unreal Engine 3, the world ofrmt eCraft sets a damn good vibe of creating a post-apocalyptic city. The textures seem to be a bit sloppy and low-res in a few places, but for the most part the environments are fantastic.。
Simply put: The controls scheme for CrimeCraft is as average as averagn be, so you should be able to get used to them as soon as your start playing.。
。
There’s also crafting professions you can choose from that allow you make different weapons, outfits and other items. My personal favorite: Chemist profession, which lets me make wonderful “medicines” to use in out of battle (and when I mean “medicine”, I totally mean drugs!). Ever wonder what it would be like to be a drug dealer? Look no further!。
Customization - 3。
。
。
Guns, Drugs, Sex, Violence and Explosions! All of this and more can be found in the wonderfully grim and dreary world of Crraft!。 。
。 。
Controls – 2。
Community - 3。
。
Player models also give off a good amount of detail with solid animations, too. I just wish they could have done something with the model faces having a weird, creepy stare which makes them look more like living manikins rather than people. All of this gets ped up in a pretty bloody stained bow as killing your enemies viciously includes lots of gibs and ragdoll physics. Strange enough, though, I feel like the gore is a bit overdone (It seems like everyone in CrimeCraft is squishy and have open circulatory systems or something, because even a quick stab to the neck will make an enemy’s head explode.)。
。
Besides from a few quests that you can take, there’s always something going down, such as tournaments you can participate in on a daily and weekly basis. I think this is a great way to keep the community active and players something new to do every time they log in.。
。
The available modes here contain a good amount of variety over the basics. While CrimeCraft contains your standard FFA, TDM and CTF (Renamed as Riot, Shootout and Snatch & Grab), there’s a couple of modes that change up the pace such as Robbery and Safeguard. After giving those modes a try, I can say that while they break up the mony of straight forward shooting, they do lose its luster after a while. One nice feature with game modes is that other players are free to jump into your game at any time, which is great for PvE matches when you need some backup.。
Features/Gameplay – 3。

The game starts off in a way that really caught me off guard: Instead of heading straight into a tuto, the game dumps you straight into a live match.。
。The control scheme used for CrimeCraft is very typical for first/third person shooters: WSAD for movement, MOUSE1 for firing, MOUSE2 for precise aiming, SHIFT for sprinting and SPACEBAR for action rolling. On a personal note: I wasn’t too fond of not being able to lean or switch aiming sides, so I couldn’t use most of my usual TPS tactics here. Also: Throwing grenades were a bit of a pain for me since they&rsquolisted under skills, and each skill is mapped to the F1-F5 keys. Fortunately, these keys can be remapped.。
。
While the initial customization was lacking, you’ll have a good chunk of options much later on. Most clothing items that can be purchased with in-gameey also have stats applied to them, so you might want to think twice about which clothing options to go with. The only way for your character to have the look you want with the stats you want is to pick up avatar clothing which covers over your stat clothing. The only way to get these is by purchasing them from the black market with gold bars (real money) or by bidding off another player’s avatar items at the auction house. Not really my cup of tea, but seems fair enough.。
。
CrimeCraft features a lot of content compared to its competi, making the experience well above average. It doesn’t re-invent the wheel, but its dark atmosphere alone makes the game stand above most other F2P shooters. If you’re looking for a long lasting experience or just looking to pop off a few heads every now and then, CrimeCraft is certainly worth a try.。
。
Back in 2009, CrimeCraft was released by Vogster Entertainment as a subscription based MMO third person shooter that received meager reception. Since then, the game has been updated, tweaked and reworked into a F2P shooter; all while receiving its first major expansion called “The Bleedout”, which features a handful of new content. But with all this and more, does this game finally have enough street cred?。 。
。 。
。
。
。
。
。
。
。
You also have tbility to start up a gang (clan/guild system), allowing you to start up a nice little hideout. If you’re feeling dominant, you can challenge other gangs and wage war while betting some cash on the side. With a gang, you can also start a night club business and have players pay to get in. Starting up or joining a gang is one of the easiest ways to make money in CrimeCraft, and very recommended, since a lot of items are expensive as hell.。
While the population is a bit low, you’lld more than enough players around to start a match or instance. The community here contains your typical bunch of friendly, rude and mild mannered players as in every free-to-play online game so don’t expect anything out of the ordinary.。

Max Payne 3 screenshots reignite your bul
Rockstar has broken its silence on Max Payne 3 with these two new screenshots. These nermtwts show a familiar-looking Max sneaking through a hallway and assassinating some fool clearly outwitted by Max's mad bullet-time dodging skills. The firm has been way too quiet on the third-person shooter since it got us all excited with new screenshots back in May. Back in June several retailers updated their listings for Rockstar's crime thriller, pointing to a US release on December 1, 2011. Rockstar kept quiet on the matter, but with these new shots a rep says to "expect a lot of news in the next few months".We're all ears, Rockstar. Mike Jackson
