Black Survival vs Mavericks: Proving Grounds
Black Survival
Black Survival is a battle royale/survival game that will bring to mind games like PUBG and movies like the Hunger Games. However, as opposed to having plenty of players in a single game, Black Survival only houses up to 10 players on a deserted island. The island itself is segmented into 22 areas, each of which will gradually become "restricted areas" that drastically drain your health if you insist on staying in that area. It's also great that the game has a crafting aspect, allowing you to create hundreds of different weapons, tools and food items.Best yet, the game has an amazing myriad of characters for you to play as, each of them have their own backstories for you to discover. Characters are not all free, though you can literally play all of them by patiently waiting for the game's free character rotation. And of course, it also happens to be an anime-themed game... how many anime-themed battle royale games have you seen so far? (The answer is none except this one, by the way)
So, to sum up, Black Survival may have come out at just the right moment when the Battle Royale hype is at its peak thanks to popular games like PUBG and Fortnite Battle Royale, but it managed to innovate the genre and provide players with a fresh new perspective to the genre. You can even play this game for free while you're on the go!
Mavericks: Proving Grounds
Mavericks: Proving Grounds is an ambitious, 400-player battle royale game that includes some form of virtual world game elements to make it more social. What do we mean by that? Well, basically, there's a central, social hub where you can meet, chat and interact with other players. Similar to a virtual world game or an MMORPG, there are shops manned by NPCs here along with a nice selection of mini-games for you to enjoy during your downtimes outside of the "Proving Grounds". There's even a shooting range for you to test your skills.In terms of gameplay, Mavericks: Proving Grounds provides a massive 16km x 16km-sized map, which is dubbed as the Isle of Dern, that's filled with immaculate details like buildings, forests and the like. You'll then search these locations for chests or boxes containing the weapons or tools you need Considering the vastness of the map, there are vehicles you can drive around too.
Admittedly, it's pretty much similar to PUBG in many ways, but what truly makes this game unique is its physically-sound destructible environments. For instance, let's say an enemy is taking pot-shots at you from a forest but you can't see where he is... all you need to do is light the entire place on fire and smoke him out. There are also special specialist hardware that are powerful to use but can be really hard to find. These items will give you more strategic opportunities to get at your opponents.
The game has a bit of RPG in it mainly due to its emphasis on narrative and how every battle you fight in may determine the fate of the world. Through a unique reputation system, you can fight for the faction of your choice, either The Capital or one of The Factions, by completing achievements or simply by performing well in-game. Naturally, each faction provides you with their own sets of benefits.
Mavericks will be free-to-play once it is officially released, but it will also offer a premium, citizenship program. Likely a subscription program, having a citizenship will grant you some perks, allowing you to say earn more in-game currency and prestige, access to premium cosmetics and more.
