Firearms are best for killing players but do limited structure damage, while explosive weapons excel at both but have a slower rate of fire and better range. “Wrecking Zone has an anemic pool of nine weapons, compared to the dozens in the campaign, and you can carry one firearm and one explosive at a given time. Additionally, there’s a player-killing, building-breaking Flying Fist melee charge attack or a ground-pound slam that recharges a few seconds after use. To promote this idea of climbing to an advantage position, everyone has two air jumps and two air dashes to use before needing to touch a solid surface again – and that’s not even counting the tons of man-cannons ready to fling you into the sky. Because the auto-lock gunplay is so incredibly simplistic and skill-free, just like in the campaign, the most important part of staying alive is positioning and fast movement. As long as you delay a lock-on and pull the trigger the second you have an effective line of sight, it’s almost hard to lose a one-on-one gun fight. “The bigger problem with both modes is that while there are subtleties to be learned with regard to weapon effectiveness at range – shotguns and machine pistols require close range, for example – most fights in Wrecking Zone boil down to guerilla tactics wherein whoever sees the other person and starts shooting first usually wins. It’s a smart decision that makes you focus on one of Crackdown’s best qualities: its constant movement. It’s essentially Kill Confirmed from Call of Duty, where standard Team Deathmatch rules apply with the added caveat that you have to collect your opponents’ token after killing them to bank the point. Of the two basic modes in Wrecking Zone, I preferred Agent Hunter. Wrecking Zone is like a tech demo in this way, where you’re supposed to admire what’s going on behind the scenes and ignore the fact that it doesn’t really matter. It’s so separate from everything going on that if you were to somehow time it perfectly so that the statue were to fall directly onto an enemy, they wouldn’t take any damage. But the problem is that for as cool as it is to see building shrapnel rain down from the sky or a structure lumber toward the ground under its own weight, it’s shoehorned into a multiplayer mode that does little to make use of it. With each breaking piece, there’s a crunchy shudder and boom, and it made me imagine how much more entertaining the single-player/co-op would be if I could bring down skyscrapers on that map. And it is genuinely impressive to barrel a rocket toward the ankles of a massive granite statue and watch in the unfolding seconds as the weight and mass of the stone humanoid force it down, cracking the floor into chunks as it makes contact. There will inevitably be connectivity issues and delays.“Destruction is the absolute high water mark in Wrecking Zone. Don’t expect the game to be as polished as it would be in an open beta or other early access phase.
CRACKDOWN 3 MULTIPLAYER FULL
Microsoft wants to put pressure on the multiplayer servers and other architecture before the full launch of Crackdown 3 to make sure they are stable on launch day. To be clear, this is not a beta, but a technical test. Players can even prevent the opposing team from scoring points by collecting the markers for their eliminated teammates. Turning in these markers will validate the points for each kill. Players will have to hunt down and kill the opposing team, collecting kill markers along the way. There will be a game mode called Agent Hunter. And no, the name doesn’t seem to have much meaning about the content of the test.
This new test, which focuses primarily on server stability and the netcode aspects of multiplayer, is called the Wrecking Zone Technical Test. PST, and the second will run from 7:00 p.m. Tomorrow, there will be two testing phases.
CRACKDOWN 3 MULTIPLAYER INSTALL
Once you’re done with that, you’ll be able to download and install the game starting at 9:00am PST.
CRACKDOWN 3 MULTIPLAYER PC
As a PC or Xbox One player, you’ll need to sign up and download the Xbox Insider Hub app. You must be an Xbox Insider if you want to participate. So if you have access and want to get your hands on the game, this is your chance. This is the first time the public will get their hands on the game since there have been several delays during development. Crackdown 3 technical multiplayer testing begins tomorrow for PC.
