The mmo Defiance was a purchasable game that came out at the same time as the SyFy series of the same name. It has subsequently become free to download and play. Kind of a hybrid Call of Duty / Halo. I wasn't fond of the WASD keyboard controls but once I realized it supported my x-box controller I was much happier. You can carry multiple weapons and have any two loaded out for quick switching and successful shots train up your skill with that weapon. For my first test I selected Survivalist class so started out with a pistol and single shot rifle with scope. As it turns out, head shots not only do more damage, they train up your weapon skill faster! The defense system is much like Halo 2 with health pips and a recharging shield which can be replaced with better versions found in your travels and I believe even upgraded. The game is story and quest driven with plenty of side quests and trials for fun and profit. you even get a 4 wheeler for free early in the game. Unfortunately it's quite unwieldy to drive with very poor handling characteristics. Of course, it's free and you can get other vehicles so maybe they handle better. I basically suck at shooters so it'll never be a great game for me, but someone who's good at that type of game may find it lots of fun. |
