Blacklight: Retribution-Excellent free to play multiplayer FPS

*Blacklight: Retribution* is really polished and fun free-to-play title that
looks great and is very playable. The quality is much higher than most free
to play titles, and it deserves your attention is you're an online shooter
fan. *Gameplay* Blacklight Retribution's controls are pretty standard for FPS
games, meaning you can jump right into the game without problems. This fast
paced game features a 'Hyper Reality Visor' (HRV), that allows you to see
through walls and check the position of team mates and enemies. It only lasts
for a few moments, but really changes how you play the game. Hiding out
somewhere is much less effective when anyone can see your position! Another
interesting gameplay feature is the Hardsuit. With enough combat points, you
can buy a 'laser designator' at a weapons depot, then request an airdrop of
this mechanized weapon. Hardsuits are like Mechs - big, slow, really powerful
and tough to beat. While not as game-changing as the HRV, the Hardsuits are a
fun addition. As its so easy to get into, Blacklight: Retribution is really
addictive. You can totally enjoy the game for free, and earning points to
customize your weapons and soldier makes it compelling. What Blacklight:
Retribution doesn't do is make many concessions to FPS beginners. Despite the
training, new players will be cannon fodder until they learn to compete with
the experiences players online! *Graphics and Sound* Blacklight: Retribution
looks great - it's made with the Unreal 3 engine and on a high-end PC the
graphics wouldn't look out of place in a triple-A title. The sound is equally
high quality. Compared to other free-to-play titles like Battlefield
Play-4-free, Blacklight: Retribution is impressive. *Lastability* If you
enjoy the gameplay, the customization and promised additional content mean
Blacklight: Retribution should keep you playing for a long time. The maps are
good, but it will be important for more to be added over time. Blacklight
Retribution doesn't look particularly original, but the HRV and Hardsuits are
significant and make the game stand out amongst FPS games. There are clearly
influences from lots of other FPS games, but taking good ideas is a great way
to make a good game!Download *Blacklight: Retribution* in Softonic
