![]() Except on rare occasions, the controls have been some of the most responsive and smooth I’ve ever experience in MOBA. So far, the controls in Shards of War have proven to be quite intuitive. Which brings up something else different – you don’t level up individually, your team levels up as a whole. For example, a Team Level D item becomes available when your team reaches level 10. As your team progresses in levels, you can purchase these gears based on their gear level. After crafting a piece of gear or an item, you can then apply it to your loadout. This is because you’ll need to craft gear before you can use it in a match. This is a nice improvement to the usual “First Win of the Day” bonus that most MOBAs go with.Īs I mentioned, there are craft items in the game. There’s also a tab for events, so I’m assuming that they’ll have special events that happen from time to time. Already they have the frameworks for this available for play. Speaking of which, there appears to be the ability to craft items. Such as missions that can be completed to receive currency or special chests that can be opened for stuff like crafting materials. However, Shards of War is aiming for an average of twenty minutes in game length. Most MOBAs go with thirty-to-forty minute matches, sometimes longer. The shorter matches are another difference. Next would be the way loadouts work, as it’s a bit different than the usual. After that, you probably asked, “Why should I care about yet another MOBA?” So, what makes this different from all the other games in this genre? Well, first would be the sci-fi dystopian future setting of the game – quite different than the fantasy theme that most go with. If you’re like me, you probably groaned when you learned about yet another MOBA project. Sure, there are some things that make the archetypes stand apart from other games, but for the most part if you’re familiar with playing tanks from a game like League of Legends, you’ll get used to them in Shards of War fairly quick. The archetypes are the same for the most part – you still have attackers, tanks, and supports. Like most MOBAs, Shards of War has a theme or back-story surrounding their “heroes.” Here, the Sentinels are warriors from alternate realities taken from their own realities and placed in Empire City to do battle. So far, there have been ten revealed Sentinels. The end goal of Shards of War is to redefine the MOBA, so let’s see if they’re on the right track. The game makes use of WASD controls, twitch-action combat, and relatively short match times compared to other games in the genre. You will take control of a Sentinel, a warrior sent to Empire City from an alternate reality, to do battle. Instead of the usual fantasy-theme of most MOBAs, Shards of War will be going with a sci-fi theme. This epic story will leave readers in disbelief at the horrors of war, and anxious to see how the characters will pick up the shards that remain.Shards of War is an up-and-coming “Next Generation MOBA” brought to us by BIGPOINT, currently in alpha. ![]() It reveals the lengths to which men and women will go to hurt and to save one another. Never could he have imagined that not only would the Germans occupy Russia, but the enemy would infiltrate his own village and even his family.Īgainst a backdrop of the Russo-Finnish Conflict, the German invasion of Russia, and the Holocaust, Shards of War is a tale of love, rivalry, fear, and courage. When the old man Boris Panovich warned young Nicko Churnak that one day the Germans would invade Russia, Nicko thought of it as a day far off in the future and wondered whether he would be ready when the time came. Shards of War will slice across our land-but the Russian people will never lose heart, and there will be no thought of defeat!” There will be fighting blood will spill many will die. “Adolph Hitler has an appetite for supremacy….There will be dark days ahead, I fear. The old man nodded slowly, as if reluctant to answer. There will be fighting blood will spill many will d Was it a shadow of fear that clouded the youngster’s eyes when he asked, “Do you really think Hitler’s army will come-here to our village and to Tula?” Was it a shadow of fear that clouded the youngster’s eyes when he asked, “Do you really think Hitler’s army will come-here to our village and to Tula?” The old man nodded slowly, as if reluctant to answer. ![]()
