Livelock is a surprise from PWE who previously focuses on traditional MMORPG. This time they try new game type — fast-paced top-down shooter. Developed by Tuque Games, a new Canadian studio founded in 2012, Livelock allows you to team up with up to 2 other players to fight the war between machines. Quick reaction, fast decision, and explosive battles are things you can expect from the game.
 

 
Livelock isn't an MMORPG but a co-op shooter. The game aims at console quality, and it does come to PS4 and Xbox One, with a buy-to-play model that PWE barely uses. The game will be released in 2016 and pricing details will be announced in the future.
 
More gameplay details will be released later. You can read the back story below and take a grasp of how the universe looks like.

Livelock transports players into the 22nd century, the age of the machine. Nearly a century after the cataclysm, humanity is on the brink of survival. Clusters - groups of corrupted machines control what remains of the earth, fighting each other in an infinite war over resources that now threatens the very planet itself. Players take control of a Capital Intellect, a human consciousness uploaded to large mechanical body. Armed with a unique arsenal of weapons and special abilities, the Capital Intellect must fight the corrupted machine Clusters and break the cycle of an infinite war, before humanity is forgotten in the annals of history.

 
PWE has released many screenshots and you can see them at next page.

Details of LucasArts' Cancelled Strategy MMO Star Wars Outpost Leaked

Eurogamer
obtained and published pretty lots of details of LucasArts' nearly-completed MMO Star Wars Outpost. Although you won't be able to play this game, you can take a look at the game that you may not even hear of.
 
It was developed by LucasArts' Singapore office consisted of 30 members and was quietly cancelled 4 weeks from completion (it was about 90% completed according to the source), shortly before Disney's acquisition of Star Wars.


  
Outpost was a browser MMO but the game wasn't a social or casual game as its artwork may suggest, but a hardcore strategy game which was described as Star Wars met Settlers of Catan/EVE.
 


The source said:
 

You would take control of an Outpost on a planet within [the Star Wars galaxy]. The land on the planet was finite and so were the resources, so you were forced to search out and find other players. You had choices to either work with them or betray them for their resources.

 

You could then start supplying weapons/ships/tools etc. to either the Rebels or the Empire. Supporting each side would control a balance of power where that side could start taking over the Galaxy.

 


You can head to Eurogamer for other details and stories of the game.

Chromatic Souls Review: Turn-Based WoW on Mobile Devices

$

The gameplay of Chromatic Souls is very old school and the drama UI seems like a old-school American RPG. The battle is purely turn-based without automatic combat and raid. Each character only has three skills and one normal attack. The CD of skills is very long and the half time you can only flat cut. Chromatic Souls seem like a console game without internet interaction. When playing Chromatic Souls, strategy and community is very necessary. So this game coming out in the end of 2015 is full of nostalgic feelings.


If you have ever played WoW, you will find Chromatic Souls is the spirit succession of WoW on mobile devices. The setting of skills and characters has lot of to do with WoW and Chromatic Souls corresponds its own features with the turn-based gameplay. 

From the the starting tutorial, Chromatic Souls emphasis on the concept of "Primal Strength". The character with high "Primal Strength" will be noted. And the initial gameplay identifies the iron triangle relationship between Tank, DPS and healer. Besides for the common buff and debuff, Dot and Hot are also very important in heal and damage.

About Storm Riders

Storm Riders is a browser-based MMORPG created by studio Mokylin Group and distributed on the free-to-play model. The game’s plot is based on the ancient Chinese legend Wind and Cloud, a tale of powerful warriors who master the martial arts of kung fu.
Lords of the Elements was set in the ancient Far East, a land when magic melded with the arts of war. Its storyline was based on ancient legend. As children, Wind and Cloud were taken into the Alliance Under Heaven, a battle clan ruled by the ruthless lord and conqueror Shong. Shong is told a prophesy: the two young warriors will bring glory to the alliance or destroy Lord Shong himself. Deciding to tempt his fate, the villain kills the boys’ parents so that he may train the future kung fu masters himself. Years later, Wind and Cloud discover their mentor’s treachery and clash with him in mortal battle.
Lords of the Elements allowed fans of this great story to play as these very heroes themselves. The player selects one of two male characters or one of the female warriors, Sight and Dream. This choice is more difficult than it seems. Each of these four heroes has his or her own unique, interesting backstory.
Now you are a master of martial arts. Become a part of Wind and Cloud Saga – two strongest warriors and sword masters of the Celestial Empire. Fight with hordes of enemies, upgrade your skills and get titles that will impress your enemies. Tense battles for vast lands and regal title – demonstrate your deadly arts.

Talent Guide - *Body-Blocker* Pooper King Anub'Arak by RegisKillbin

$
0
0
The stun-lock meta has been a prominent factor in Heroes of the Storm for a long time now. Being able to stun a character, control their movement, and set your team up for easy kills is vital to success in the game these days. Anub'Arak is actually one of the best characters in the game when it comes to disrupting other players, as long as you build him to maximize that potential! 

In the video below, I break down a build for Anub'Arak that allows you to go absolutely crazy with stuns, body blocks, crowd control, and enemy movement disruption. It's a little unusual for the hero, but it won't take long to understand the raw power this build can unleash on unsuspecting opponents.



For your convenience, here is a table of the talent choices by level.
 
LvlIconNameTooltip
1Extended SpikesIncreases the max range of Impale by 25%.
4UnderkingIncreases the range of Burrow Charge by 20% and lowers the cooldown by 2 seconds.
7Bed of BarbsCreate a bed of spikes along Impale's path that slows enemy Move Speed by 30% and deals 26 damage per second. Spikes persist for 3.5 seconds.
10Cocoon [R]Wraps target enemy Hero in a cocoon, rendering them unable to act or be targeted for 8 seconds. Allies of the Hero can attack the cocoon to break it and free them early.
13Burning RageDeal 23 damage per second to nearby enemies.
16EpicenterIncreases the impact area and damage of Burrow Charge by 85%.
20RewindActivate to reset the cooldowns of your Basic Abilities.

In my opinion, Anub'Arak is a wildly undervalued hero. He can ruin the plans of enemy teams, do loads of damage, and serve as the perfect off-tank. This build will make sure you can go crazy with the big bootied bug, making it one of the most enjoyable and dynamic builds the game has to offer. If you have any questions about this talent guide, I'll be happy to answer it in the comments.

Renolock has been one of the best decks to arrive with the League of Explorers era, and it doesn't seem to be going away anytime soon! It's still a top tier deck and learning to play it will give you a reliable and powerful deck to climb the ranked ladder all the way to legend.

In the video below, I take Renolock out onto the legend ladder in order to educate viewers about the decks intricacies. You'll learn all the ins-and-outs of Renolock, including mulligan tips, gameplay tactics, lines of play, answers to other meta decks, and general strategy.



Wasn't that fun? This deck is capable of some crazy plays and unbelievable wins! It has so many different power turns available to it, that you'll often find yourself winning games in which it seemed almost impossible to snatch victory. If you have any questions about the deck, lines of play in the video, or card substitutions, leave a comment and I'll be happy to discuss it.

The long lasting action MMORPG Continent of the Ninth Seal (C9) has received the latest update where  a new Awakened Level System is introduced to players. Players with a level 67 character holding an Ultimate Fury Skill, and who complete special quests to prove that they are worthy, will receive a hidden power that applies to all their characters for both PvP and PvE.


Once players select one of three bonuses, they can level up the awakened power to strengthen their bonus even further (up to the maximum awakened level of 300).

The Awakened Level System grants players powerful abilities with no special equipment, and shares the awakened level and experience with all characters on the same account. Consequently, not only will players' main characters receive a big advantage, but their sub-characters will also.

With the arrival of the Awakened Level System, the C9 team will be running a week-long event to give out Cosmos Stones, Rentus War Artifacts and more items to players that reach awakened level 50 or higher.
