Dead by Daylight Review Part 2 – Redeem Code Spotlight

Posted on by Richard Griever

Continued from Dead by Daylight Review Part 1 – Steam Codes Spotlight

At its very core, Dead by Daylight is scary as scary can be. With randomly generated maps, teams will be using the environment to their advantage as killers will bypass them completely though their menacing looms and larger-than-life unpredictability. It’s a series of fear-driven encounters that have both sides running frantically to outwit each other. While it’s a great game, this sort of gameplay is weak against developing metas, as with most competitive games. Well, just think about it; you’re playing as a lone killer against a team of well coordinated survivors – you are definitely going to lose.

Right now, the survivors definitely have the greater advantage over the killers. Though, one could also say that killers are underpowered instead, but it still shows that fights against coordinated survivor teams or even just from well-experienced players make the game a bit too one-sided. With the meta of the game right now, the slow movement speed of killers are easily exploited and outclassed by the clear advantages of survivors. Though killers have their own sets of abilities to tip the scales in their favor, it still feels like they are too underpowered for their own good.

Other issues also grate, particularly the fact that at every turn the survivors get second chances, from needing to be hit twice, to (potentially) wriggling free of your grasp when carrying them to a more advantageous spot, to the speed at which the survivors can free others from the meathooks you hang them on to kill them. Visually, it can often appear very muddy and washed out, which isn’t great for spotting or tracking targets (if you’re looking for someone who’s been downed you can forget it).

The progression system in the game could use a little more work as well. Akin to the system in place for Payday, players get some xp and perks after every match, like a slight, but permanent, boost to move speed, but it isn’t so much that it will help a lot in the long run. It’s pretty shallow at the moment but, of course, this could change in the future. The game is great overall and the sense of dread is authentically amazing that you’ll be able to dismiss some of the glaring problems at its core for quite some time. Given a bit more time to develop, this could turn out to be a good staple of gaming like the Left 4 Dead series. Here’s to hoping.

Redeem Codes: Is it Worth it?

So, should you buy it? It’s great but not great enough for you to blow your money on PC redeem code or Xbox redeem code right this instant. It’s more worth it if you just wait for a sale.

Redeem code: Overwatch’s Incoming Competitive Mode

Posted on by Richard Griever

PSN Redeem Code: Blizzard’s Info on Competitive Mode this end of June!

Overwatch’s competitive mode was supposed to be released at the same time with the actual game, but it was then delayed to late June. While it isn’t much of a problem for most folks, it’s been a bone of contention for players that want to take Overwatch to hyper esports levels right off the bat. No matter because it is coming and coming very soon with a lot of reworking, tweaks and rewards.

First of all, the seasons for the competitive mode are expected to last for about three months, lining up properly with the four seasons. Naturally, the first ever season of Overwatch would be the Summer competitive season.

Next, the company plans to tweak the Assault format to cut down on the number of matches going into Overtime. It happens anywhere from 35 to 50 percent of the time, which Blizzard felt was a bit too high.

Blizzard also overhauled the entire progression system of the game and the competitive tiers that people got used to back in beta have been removed completely. In their place is a new system that will feature a matchmaking ranking that is based on a player skill rating from one to 100. Player skill ratings and averages will be shown before and after matches, and you will also be able to see if you are playing against a pre-made group. Xbox redeem code for Overwatch. Blizzard says that this may result in skill ratings occasionally dropping, but the company plans to monitor this system to make sure it is working as intended.

Lastly,Blizzard added some cosmetic incentives to competitive play via golden weapons and various other things. These will include new sprays and player icons that will only be obtainable during each season. A pretty good time to get an Overwatch redeem code then for some esports competitiveness.

Overwatch Review Part 2 – Be A Hero! – Xbox Redeem Code

Being a Hero and the Balance in Overwatch! – Redeem Codes for Your Xbox One and PS4

The true crème de la crème of Overwatch is in its gorgeous lore and tantalizing plethora of heroes. With all the marketing of Overwatch, it’s kind of hard to say that you don’t know Tracer or Widowmaker, two heroes with the most screentime. But the other characters in Overwatch are fantastically made as well, evoking a great sense of interest upon seeing them. A notable example would be D.Va, a robot mech controller that uses her mech as both a tank or an offensive powerhouse to decimate the opposing team. Another two would be the brothers made famous by the animated short, Dragons, Hanzo and Genji. Hanzo, the archer, acts like a heavy duty sniper that provides amazing covering fire for his allies, the ability to scale walls, and control the flow of combat overall. Genji, on the other hand, is a swift, close quarters combatant that can decimate nearly any other hero with a strike from his sword and a very awesome ability to reflect most incoming projectiles. And I do emphasize the word swift.

But let’s not get bogged down in only the offensive heroes. Tanks and support have a greater role in the concept of team-based shooters here in Overwatch. D.Va was already mentioned and counts as a tank, but a better example of a true blooded tank would be Reinhardt that has a limited melee attack but sports a massive and movable plasma shield that serves as mobile cover for his allies, not to mention also being obscenely tough on his own. Mercy, the most popular support character, can switch her weapon to either healing or damage boost, depending on the situation, and can resurrect allies within her vicinity with her ultimate skill.

Quite frankly, It’s been quite some time since I’ve encountered an arena game that have all characters balanced right off the bat. Remember that Overwatch is still in its launch week and folks still haven’t found any glaring defects concerning the balance between characters. While there are some heroes that seem to have stark advantages over others, like between Tracer and McCree, remember that all characters have their own roles and that a specific character might not be within the purview of your personal playstyle. Tracer is played more as an assassin and excels in subterfuge rather than direct and active conflict. McCree is a mid-ranged combatant that excels at eliminating opponents the fastest way possible. You can’t really play McCree like Tracer that zips all across the battlefield in the blink of an eye expecting to elude the enemy front liners without getting shot at. In the same way, you can’t really play Tracer like McCree where she can take on opponents head on. She’ll just end up getting one-shotted.

The variation of style and uniqueness in Overwatch’s heroes is amazingly well done. No matter who you are, whether you like shooters or not, almost every hero in the game’s roster will be appealing for you, especially moreso with them bursting at their seams with personality. The characters in Overwatch alone make it worth getting an Xbox redeem code, a PSN redeem code, or a PC redeem code.

Redeem Code: The Overwatch Hype is Real

Posted on by James Young

With Overwatch coming so close to release at the time of this writing, it’s hard to ignore how incredibly popular the IP is considering that it hasn’t even been released yet. Then again, it shouldn’t be surprising considering that the company behind Overwatch is Blizzard Entertainment, the same company that created the Warcraft series, a niche strategy game, and transformed said game into a decade-long MMORPG sensation. They were also behind the popularity that is Diablo, Starcraft, and Hearthstone, with the less successful Heroes of the Storm in tow.

Redeem Code: The Overwatch Hype is Real

Some may say that the Overwatch hype is nothing more than the standard, run-of-the-mill hype, but the beta statistics will show that it’s a bit more than that, with thousands of Beta Overwatch redeem codes already used. But let’s not get bogged down in number crunching and whatever since the game hasn’t even been released yet. Instead, let’s look at the massive, yet still budding, community of Overwatch. A simple google search will immediately net you thousands upon thousands of fan artwork, cosplay, fan coverage, and all sorts of other homages to a game that is yet to be released. That is, immediately, power to the game that no other has been able to manage. The Overwatch IP’s state right now is as if it has existed for years upon years with a large following of loyal fans that have grown up with it. It’s like freaking Star Wars. But, again, it’s not eve released to the general public yet!

We’ve got to hand it to Blizzard as they know how to market a game. Everywhere I look, adverts about Overwatch are everywhere, but not the kind of advertising that gets super annoying. They put out quality trailers and animated shorts that get word of mouth going around and the fans themselves share it across social media. This is a phenomenon that no game has ever seen before and I suspect the momentum of this hype will keep on going. Take me, for example; I simply ABHOR FPS and MOBAs in general, but the lore of Overwatch, through its many interesting characters, animations, and hullaballoo about it have piqued my interest enough to pick up the game. Compound the fact that Blizzard claims Overwatch to be both noob-friendly and challenging for shooter vets makes it all the more appealing. This hype, as far as anyone can tell, is as real as real can be and the game will be a real contender in the Esports scene. When the game finally drops, I can only look forward to how it will grow and evolve. Our watch begins now.

Watch out for promotions for PSN Redeem Code, Xbox Redeem Code, and even PC Redeem Codes in various sites or cheap promotions in marketplaces for Overwatch.

Using Kinect for an Xbox Redeem Code

Posted on by James Young

Using Kinect for an Xbox Redeem Code

Xbox Kinect can be use to read your Xbox redeem codes for easy access. Not only can they scan QR codes from your regular redeem codes, but they can also redeem gift cards, give aways, and pretty much anything with a QR code related to your Xbox One.

To begin scanning the QR code, all you have to do is use the voice command, “Xbox, use a code.” This will then cause your Kinect to activate and start scanning the room it is located in. Simply hold up your Xbox redeem code or redeem gift card up in front of the Kinect camera and it will automatically read and, well, redeem, your Xbox redeem code. Whatever it is you have purchased the code for, your Xbox One will download it immediately if connected to the internet. Naturally, make sure that your net connection is not interrupted. However, even if it is, you can simply start it up again with no worries. Do note that the marvelous technology of the Kinect enables it to see QR codes up to 6 feet from its camera.

Use a QR Code Generator

Now, if you happen to have an Xbox redeem code that is in the form of a 25 digit string to manually input and you don’t like that method, you could always visit legitimate and trustworthy sites that will transform your 25 digit code into a QR code for some easy Kinect scanning. You can print out this QR code or simply use your smartphone to show to the Kinect camera.

The Old Fashioned Way

As it was explained in an earlier article, you can also use the old fashioned way of entering an Xbox Redeem Code. Again, it can be confusing for a first timer, so we can’t really blame you for not finding it immediately. Go to Apps and select “Use a Code” in the menu system. Just scroll to the right until you find that bit. Once there, all you really have to do is enter the 25 digit code and you’re golden.

How To Use an Xbox Redeem Code – The Debacle!

Posted on by James Young

The Xbox Redeem Code Debacle!

The interface of the Xbox One, while awesome to look at, won’t be winning any awards soon. The old interface, the initial one at launch, was an awful mess to be completely honest. You could hardly find where to redeem your codes, much less other things not directly about gaming. But the new interface hasn’t done it any favors either.

xbox redeem code, redeem codes, redeem gift card 1

To be honest, we’re only doing this to help you guys. Back during the era of the Xbox 360 era, it was way easy! Hit the guide button, you go over there, and just hit the “Redeem Code” option. That was it! But, no, the Xbox One has to be a fickle bastard, a confusing one at that, and cause a lot of pain for folks that just wanted to use their Xbox Redeem Code.

For half an hour, I was just lolling around my Xbox One interface with literally no idea what I was doing or looking for. Finally, however, I found exactly how to do it. Now, why the tutorial, you ask? Well, this is to help the folks out there that don’t want to waste their time trying to figure out the pointlessness for themselves. This way, you save a lot of time and frustration.

So, here it is. To use your Xbox redeem code go to the top of your Xbox One dashboard and put your cursor highlight on the “Store” tab. This will then collapse into smaller tabs and choose the “Games” tab. Scroll down to “Browse All Games” that is located right beside the “Search All Games” bar.

Once on the Browse All Games interface, head back up to the top of the page and slide to the right and click on the “Use a Code” tab. Once there, you can choose to either use a QR code to scan on your kinect or use the 25 digit Xbox redeem code you have. It’s that simple although it can be initially frustrating at first.

Certainly, Microsoft has designed the Xbox with a very fancy interface that is sleek, smooth, pleasing to the eyes, and minimalist. It’s an awesome aesthetic design, but has horrid ergonomic properties. It takes a bunch of tries and a whole lot of patience for people just to use their redeem codes or redeem gift cards because of an oddly illogically structured user interface.
