Ballistic Overkill vs Diep.io
Ballistic Overkill
Ballistic Overkill is a great MMOFPS game that has a fun futuristic feel to it! If you find the name familiar, well, that's mainly because the game is based on its very popular free-to-play browser-based counterpart, Ballistic (this version was unfortunately removed in the wake of Ballistic Overkill). In this game, everything previously Ballistic was completely reworked. There are more classes you can play as in addition to the plethora of game modes and maps that you can play in. These classes have their own respective skill trees that you can add points into in order to ‘upgrade’ your character class. There is also plenty of weapons available in this game, and unlike many other shooter games, with the exception of Overwatch, this game has safe rooms with multiple exits so spawn camping isn't too much of an issue.This improved game even features much better graphics - after all, the game is no longer a brwoser game - and the same goes to its music and sound effects too. However, the game is still pretty much a casual shooter (no ranked matches yet) and the matchmaking in this game still require some changes to make matches more balanced and fair for both teams. That said, if you like short, fast-paced matches and arcade-like first-person shooting or slicing (depending on the character you choose), you should definitely try Ballistic Overkill.
Diep.io
Diep.io is a fun tank-like IO game where players play as pencil-drawn tanks on a piece of white (and sometimes gridded) paper filled with other hostile tanks as well as a variety of obstacles and Polygons. Shooting at Polygons and other players will earn you points to level up your tank to the next tier, unlocking a wide range of upgrades (or "classes" as the game calls them). At frequent intervals, AI-controlled bosses will be spawned allowing players to work somewhat cooperatively to earn a ton of experience points.Many players are calling out Diep.io as being a clone of the previously popular Tank.io (not sure what happened to Tank.io though), but considering that it's currently the last game standing, I guess it's safe to say that new players will never know about Tank.io but will instead be able to enjoy its legacy through Diep.io.
