Project : Battle Review

Hi guys, few days back we discuss/made a review about a soon to be released game Fortcraft and how it was a lot similar to fortnite, the test game did come out some time back and only few users were given access to the game, it seems to be mobile and location dependent and it works on both IOS and android. Although, the IOS version have been filled up for quite some time now.

Browsing through my Facebook feed few days back, saw a new game, although its currently in its Alpha stage, from my guess, few users probably have the ability to try it out and yes the alpha stage will be available for a short period of time, upon which I think the server will be shut down afterword’s pending on when it is officially released or it will continue to be available for the already alpha testers.

Project : Battle

---

That’s the name, it’s a battle royal based game were users are dropped in an isolated area to battle each other and the last team or player left upon time out or after the death of other players/team wins the match, the concept is a little the same to other existing battle royal games, but the location and map is totally different.
Last time I asked why this genre time of game exist much these days and a fellow gamer said, maybe it was the pinnacle of gaming or probably the concept and development was not that difficult to construct, well am no game developer, although I would love a good answer to my question why is battle royal game more common presently?

Still in alpha stage you would expect lot of changes and many or frequent update to be made daily or weekly.

Well my major concern is,

Upon completion of alpha stage, players who participated will they still have their current rep/level, ingame money and skins when the game is officially released?

Have never actually played a game that was still in its alpha stage before now, so most of these things are new to me and I wouldn’t like to spend a whole lot of time building my character only to get it erased when the game leaves the alpha stage, would probably become a drag then.

The game is developed by Netease, now I did drop a little review about them sometime back when discussing rules of survival but if you yet to check rules of survival out, you can get a quick glimpse about what Netease or who Netease are and also follow the link afterwards to learn more about them.

NetEase is a Chinese Internet technology company providing online services centered on content, community, communications and commerce. Founded in 1997 by Lebunto, the company was a key pioneer in the development of Internet services for China. Today, NetEase develops and operates some of China's online PC and mobile games, advertising services, email services and e-commerce platforms Source

That been said, they already developed some unique games before now but our main objective today is Project : Battle.

Now first of, the name don’t seem to align with the game and it would probably be wise to change the name later on, that’s if they want to capture more gamer cause that name don’t just cut it.

Starting the game is just like every or some of their games currently available, you are presented to a notification screen, which quickly brief you about the game and what the game is all about, it would be wise to go through it and know what you about to get yourself into.

The background sound is quite interesting and it has an action like feeling behind it boosting your expectation of the game.

Characters

---

Next you are presented to a select screen, were you can choose between two available characters each with its own unique characteristic, what they failed to do here was that no selection between gender be it male or female, rather the male looking character is called Celestial and the female looking character is called Zero, would have been great if more options were available rather than the current selection in place.

Reward

---

Like all games been developed, you are given certain amount of ingame money upon signing up, the reward seems to come daily when you log in and also a welcome package is given to you, I hope the claimed coin is still available when the alpha stage is left, other package are still available like the supply cube which you can claim for free once every 24 hours or pay certain amount of ingame money to unlock it and others.

Gallery

---

Now, personally I still don’t understand how this works, since most of the items will be available to you for free when you start playing the game, what is the need of purchasing equips?

Or players are able to use them during the waiting period but then, different car selection is still available via the gallery section, been a battle royal based game, it seems to be really different with this option available.

• Players will be able to unlock better building equipment, yes building equipment you read it right, battle : project comes with an ingame built option were players are able to build walls to act as shield or as a steeping floor to give more advantage to players.

• Players will be able to unlock more weapons from this menu and also there is the availability of better and improved vehicles.

Controls

---

The control is a little bit complex to what am used to so far, via battle royal games and am yet to understand it or probably the control need more work to be done on it, and I must say it is not user friendly, for better understanding and control, players would have to customize it to meet their needs, that’s if they are able to understand each of the function.

Gameplay

---

Been in alpha stage, little or no player would probably be available most times, and it usually takes close to a minute or more to start a match and sometimes more in which case you have to restart the game and try your luck some other time to see if more players are currently active.

The game is kind of laggy when been played on my device, now am yet to ascertain if this is currently caused by my internet connection or if it’s a little large for my mobile device to handle but I doubt that’s the case xd.

Unlike other games were players are made to drop via a parachute and what have you, project : battle, did something different, players are now able to drop via booster surfer like equipment, the type you will probably find in sci fi movies and I must its really looking good, you can boost your way down or drop slowly, which ever be the case the ride down from the jet is really sweet xd.

Equipment pick, now unlike pubgmobile were game equips can be found on the floor, project : battle did something different, a box like option is available and it automatically opens when you stand close to it within a few seconds, now this option could probably be changed from auto to manual via the game menu.

Most of the controls are more or less same thing, like your jump and run button, but the build button well that’s new to me and am yet to fully understand how it operates.

For a game currently in it's alpha stage, its not all that bad and it is still playable but more work is needed to be made on it, most times the servers are down and hence another difficulty playing it.

If the developers want more players, they would have to fix a lot of things and also try to keep already existing players.
