S4 League

Link

This is S4 League, a Korean MMOTPS game by Neowiz. Its also in English by Alaplaya. The game can be played with guns or only melee (Sword, Bat, Counter Sword). There are 19 weapons alltogether and tons of clothes, hairs and accessories to choose from. The game is f2p, but you can pay to have better damaging weapons or clothes with more different colors. There are also alot of other systems that make the game unique, like combi system that can give better weapons and clothes with different colors, capsules that can also give better weapons and clothes that only the people that pay can get are in the game too, which give the non-payers a chance to have better weapons, the newly added coupon system that can give you a chance to have more exp, money or really cool weapons (since the system is new, there not many options there). And then we have the missions, which can be completed while playing for additional money. The most important in the game is skill, because if you can't play and you are high level, its not gonna change a fact that you lose. So, levels here don't matter as much here. The game is mostly aiming for having fun, so have fun!

In the game there lots of modes and maps. In each mode there is specific maps that can played in. There are 5 modes:

Touchdown mode (TD) : two goals are set up on either side of a field. The player must grab the ball called a "Fumbi" and take it to the opposite team's goal in order to score a Touchdown. The Fumbi also quickly drains the SP of the player holding it, which results in the use of skills being disabled until the Fumbi is dropped or the character dies. Passing through a gate or falling off the map will "reset" the Fumbi, which returns it to the starting position. There are 7 maps.

Deathmatch mode (DM) : places up to six people on each team, and has the player fight for a set amount of points or until the time runs out. There are 6 maps. This is more like a Team Deathmatch mode.

Chaser mode : one player is chosen randomly to become the Chaser. The Chasers objective is to dominate the survivors in the given time, or survive if the survivors are too powerful, which is unlikely since the Chaser receives a huge attack and defense bonus, and reload time is shortened. The Chaser is also limited, since the Chaser Doll is blocking part of the visible area, and the survivors are outlined in red and black from his/her eyes. The players who are not chosen as the Chaser are the survivors. Their objective is to either kill the Chaser or survive in the time given. When enough attack power is implied on the Chaser,measured by a bar, the player receives 2 bonus points. While in a round, the player who is in 1st place and is not the Chaser is the "Target". The Target will always have visible cross-hairs which can be seen as long as the target is in your viewing screen. If the Target is killed, the Chaser receives double points and the next player on the ranking list is the Target as long as he/she's alive. There are also damage rankings, which are awarded to players if they either harm the Chaser enough with ranged or close-ranged weapons. Damage rankings give off bonus EXP at the end of the match. There are 4 maps and one more in Korean S4 League.

Arcade mode : the player can play the storyline of S4 League. It pits 1–4 players to work together to complete 8 stages against computer opponents, with three difficulty levels to choose from. Each stage has a different objective, from either defeating all the waves of enemies, protecting a NPC friend, or defeating a boss. Before and after each stage, there are cut scenes that advance the story further. Players get 6 P-Coins a day, which can be used for extra lives. They reset every day and do not stack. If the player runs out of lives and dies during Arcade, they must pay 300 PEN per re-spawn. From completing Arcade, players receive PEN for completing each stage.

Battle Royal mode (BR) : consisting of Free For All - Death Match. Where every player fends for themself. There are no teams, and no limits. Places up to 12 players up against one another to fight for a set amount of points or until the time runs out. A target also appears on the highest scoring player as the match progresses. The player that kills the marked player is rewarded with more points for the kill. There is only one map. This is the most new mode and is played alot too.

There also tons of maps that are been hacked through, I don't how, but oh well. You can check them out on YouTube.

In game you can play differently. You can play the matches with only melee weapons or with all or you can choose 2 different ones that disable some weapons or skills that are annyoing to some people. Alot of people practice jumps in the game, because they are very important and if you have the skill and know how to do jumps you become a good player aswell, but you mostly learn the jumps by yourself from experience too.

Here is a jump tutorial where they show some beginner jumps that are good to know.
