Synopsis

Jump into combat and fight back to back with your friends on Combat Arms. You'll find yourself facing new enemies every game. Fight with your friends against humans, or turn into a zombie and go head to head for survival.

(Poor synopsis, written by myself :O)


Game Rating

There is no official game rating. I believe it is within the age group of 16+, Probably close to rated M, but not entirely.


Platforms
PC


Gameplay
Combat arms is a fast paced FPS game which was developed and published by nexon. Combat arms provides many types of gameplay and many different maps. There is no story mode for single player, it's an Online FPS only game, free to play.

You'll find yourself leaning towards the Call of duty gameplay style while you're playing.
For instance, there are many of the guns from call of duty that are implemented within combat arms. There is also a fireteam mode called "Cabin Fever" which will take you through a zombie killing adventure. There is not much i can say about the gameplay. I'll post some videos at the end, so you'll get a feel of the game.

Game Types:

One Man Army (Free For All)
Elimination (Team Deathmatch)
Elimination Pro (Search and destroy without the bomb)
Search and Destroy
Last Man Standing
Quarantine (Don't get infected, or you'll be chasing humans around)
Spy Hunt (Collect intel, first person to get all has to upload the intel)
Capture the flag
Bombing Run (Demolition Basically)
Seize and Secure ( Hold down a location for as long as you can)

Maps

I'm not a big fan of a couple of the maps. Although a lot of them i have to give nexon props for. My favorite one is Junk flea, It's the Shipment/Nuketown of Combat arms. Any who, here's a list of maps.

Junk Flea
Desert Thunder (Clear terrorists and make it to the escape zone)
Black Lung (Stuck in a subway station, you need to fight zombies to escape)
Cabin Fever (Hold off the zombies until your rescue arrives)
Death Room
Power Surge
Cold Seed
Sand Hog
Warhead
Waverider
Rattlesnake
Snow Valley
Showdown
Two Towers
Grey Hammer
Overdose
Grave Digger
Roadkill
Pump Jack
Short Fuse
Kill Creek
Vertigo
Dark Forest
Brushwood
Desert Fox (Fight Through Terrorists, clear a way for a rescue)
Ghost Town
Dredge
Sector 25
Costa Recon

GP

GP(Gear Points) is a form of currency in Combat arms. With gear points, you'll be able to rent guns and gear to increase your gameplay. Unlike a lot of games, You don't unlock guns when you rank up, you unlock them and rent them with GP.

Gear points can be earned by playing games. The amount you earn, varies on how well you do in a game.


Ranking System

The ranking system of combat arms is pretty similar to the ranking system of the army. You'll start off as a Trainee, then rank up all the way to General of the army.
There have only been a couple of people that have made it all the way to GOA, I've played for about two years, and only made it to Captain.I don't have much to say about the ranking system, if you want to know more, you can visit their website.


Controls
The controls have the basic WASD layout. You can change any controls within the settings tab while loaded up. You can bind any key to anything you want it to do on the list. Took me a week to be 100% familiar with everything. Remember though, this was my first PC game ever



Graphics

Well, the graphics are actually pretty good to be honest. The graphics can be bad, or insanely good. It all depends on what settings you run on. Combat arms doesn't require a whole lot out of computers to run smoothly. I give the graphics a solid 8/10. Once again, I'll link a couple of youtube videos down at the bottom so every can get a feel of the gameplay and the graphics. I'll be sure to link to someone that has the higher end of the deal.


Overall Opinion

Well, i have a lot to say about Combat arms. I devoted a good chunk of time to CA(Combat arms) but sadly, i stopped playing earlier this year. April to be exact. There are a couple downfalls of CA, The lack of a Hack Shield that works, hackers themselves, and a lot of mean people. Combat arms was one of the first PC games that i actually played. Every once in a while I'll load it up, but only play a game or two. For those of you who want to start PC gaming, Combat arms is a great place to start. Although i miss playing with all my friends i met while online, i don't see myself returning ever.

My Rating

7.8/10
