Battleground's Survivor: Battle Royale vs Totally Accurate Battlegrounds
Battleground's Survivor: Battle Royale
Battleground's Survivor: Battle Royale is an early access, MMO battle royale game where survival means you have to eliminate every other player on the island using any way you can. Players will start the game by leaping off a plane into the battleground where the race to secure valuable weapons, ammo, armor and other resources commences. The game map is pretty big at first, but it'll gradually shrink as time goes on in the game, forcing the remaining survivors together and ensuring a final shoot-out to determine the victor royale!However, since the game's still a work-in-progress, there are plenty to be desired. The controls are rather wonky and well, in terms of variety (maps mainly), the game has not much to offer. Not to mention, as opposed to playing against actual human players, you'll mostly be fighting against bots that seem to have aimlock in this game. To survive the hail of bullets will require some skill, that's for sure.
Although Battleground's Survivor: Battle Royale isn't exactly the best battle royale game on the mobile platform that you can play, the game itself is a pretty nice start. By playing the game and giving the dev/s feedback, you may help the game turn into a battle royale that you couldn't resist.
Totally Accurate Battlegrounds
Totally Accurate Battlegrounds has rapidly grown from being simply a belated April Fools' parody of the increasingly popular Battle Royal genre into a full-blown battle royale game itself (note the irony). The game has a fun crystalline-like graphical style and a gameplay that may remind you of Player Unknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG)... basically meaning that although you cannot build stuff, you can drive vehicles, including helicopters.What sets this game apart from all the other battle royale games is how "not serious" the game takes itself. The silliness in this game is through the roof, making it an excellent game to goof around with friends. The game touts a "physics-based everything", giving rise to hilarious moments while playing, such as getting blown off the ledge you're barely standing on due to the recoil effect from your gun. Of course, like PUBG, there are tons of cosmetics for your "weirdo" character to wear, sometimes to comedic effect - a Gandalf-slash-samurai, anyone?
In the realm of competitive battle royale gaming, it's really nice to see a game such as Totally Accurate Battlegrounds taking a mickey out of the possibly-overhyped and heavily-marketed genre. The game is currently undergoing a major overhaul due to its shift from free-to-play to premium and will be adding in anti-cheat measure and matchmaking, as well as improving server operations. As such, if you're thinking of getting this game, you might want to wait a bit.
