Verdict: What A.V.A lacks in weapon quantity it makes up for in weapon quality.īelieve it or not, sound and atmosphere play a pretty big role in both games. Even though Alliance of Valiant Arms doesn’t carry the same numerical cache of weapons as Combat Arms, it definitely has better firing and balance mechanics. The pistols are good in a pinch and shotguns will shred enemies at close range the way they’re supposed to. Nevertheless, rifles and sniper-rifles are nearly pitch-perfect for the rare long-range opportunities. The biggest problem is that keeping a steady aim will require a lot of effort on the player’s part. The shotguns feel right for the PvE modes but seem to pack too little a punch in the PvP modes.Ī.V.A weapons feel about right for nearly every mode and situation. While the weapons are easier to adjust to (and use) in Combat Arms, they aren’t entirely accurate for all occasions. I found myself using the M16 and AK47 for a lot of close-range combat (and found them to be more useful) as opposed to using pistols and shotguns during close-quarter encounters. The only problem is that even if you land a couple of hits with your favorite gun they don’t always work.
The most important aspect of a shooting game are the weapons and how well they balance off of each other in various circumstances and stages.įor Combat Arms the weapons are as diverse as they are fun to use. All right, enough meddling, let’s get this battle going. This battleground will have a few simple rounds that span the likes atmospheric immersion (or sound), weapon balance, and gameplay diversity.
The real question is, by comparison, which game is better suited for the FPS gaming masses? The popular new shooter Alliance of Valiant Arms has been making its way around the gaming marketing block and picking up some steam among the online crowd Combat Arms has already been there and done that. A handful of them come out every couple of months and sometimes it’s good to compare features in these games to see which one may or may not offer up what you’re looking for in an online shooter.įor this match-up, it will be a classic battle of new-school ( A.V.A) versus old-school ( Combat Arms).
