Battle Carnival vs Battlefield 1
Battle Carnival
Battle Carnival is a unique MMO shooter game that attempts to combine the strategy that goes into character-switching in character-based shooters like Overwatch with the somewhat arcade-like gameplay that the fans of the age-old yet iconic franchise, Counter Strike, might be very familiar with. Featuring 7 early access characters that you can access right from the start, the game puts a lot of emphasis on the roles these characters can play and how by switching some of them up, your team may be able to counter the enemy's lineup. Of course, knowing how to aim is still a crucial skill needed in any MMO shooter.The game provides 2 game modes at the moment - Demolition and Domination. Demolition is the clear favorite since the 5-vs-5 matches there are usually pretty fast-paced - 3 mins per round and the game can be won simply by winning 5 rounds. Domination, however, is slower-paced and features the "capture and hold the area" gameplay. It's a 6-vs-6 match that can last up to 12 minutes or so. The maps are all very well-designed with multiple flanking and outflanking routes, though some may complain that the maps are confusing and "maze-like".
Battle Carnival is currently in early access and as such, the game does have plenty of problems that need to be fixed, areas that need improving and of course, more features and content that need to be released. The player population is a bit on the low end as well. Regardless, the game does seem to have a potential to fill a niche that buy-to-play shooters have hogged and with changes, it can be better. In the meantime though, you might still want to give the game a try, just so you can let the developers know about your feedback and help them turn the game into a game you'd want to stick around in.
Battlefield 1
Battlefield 1 is the first of the highly-popular, first-person action-shooter game franchise, Battlefield. This game takes you back to World War 1 where you'll be able to get involved in every global conflict during that period of time, from the cities of France, the vast Arabian deserts, or the Italian Alps. You can take control massive tanks, Behemoths, dreadnoughts and airships or even agile biplanes in addition to shooting guns and throwing grenades. The best part in this game is its large-scale (up to 64 players) multiplayer mode that will thrust you right into the heart of action. Play as an infantry, a cavalry unit or even a tank operator as you coordinate with your team to take the battlefield and win the match. Of course, there are many different game modes and each of them will give you specific goals to complete in order to win.If you're looking for a large-scale, team-based MMOFPS action, you needn't look far - Battlefield has always dominated this sector of the action-shooter genre and honestly, you'll be missing out if you haven't had the chance to try this game. EA Games has also recently reworked the old Battlefield 1 so that it'll be able to compete on the same level as recent modern-day shooters. This is a great thing mainly because you'll now have a ton of other players to play the game with.
