Battle Carnival vs Heroes of the Storm
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.
Heroes of the Storm
Heroes of the Storm is a MOBA game developed by Blizzard which features all the prominent heroes and villains (or in general characters) that you may be familiar with in the Starcraft, Warcraft and Diablo universes. Heroes can be tailored to your playstyle through their talents and even skins. Aside from its amazing and ever-expanding list of heroes, the game also features uniquely-designed battlegrounds for you to battle in, experience-sharing (across members of the team) as well as a strong emphasis on objective-based teamplay. To sum up, if you are looking for an intense MOBA game with the likes of LoL or DotA 2 and yet is friendly enough for newcomers, Heroes of the Storm may just be the perfect game for you!Platforms
