Concord First Hands-On: Plenty of Balancing Left to Go, and Not Much Time
Does Concord support crossplay between PC and PS5?
Yes, Concord supports crossplay between PC and PS5, allowing players on both platforms to team up and compete against each other. This feature aims to enhance matchmaking and provide a seamless gaming experience for friends playing on different platforms.
How does Concord's movement compare to Destiny and Halo?
Concord's movement is reminiscent of Destiny and Halo, being floaty and requiring some time to get used to. However, the feather-light jumps and hang time in Concord's preview build did not match the fast-paced fights in the game. While Halo's floaty jump mechanic is justified by its gameplay, Concord's movement felt less refined in comparison.
What unique traits do Concord's characters have?
Concord's characters, known as Freegunners, have unique traits such as varied health pools, weapons, and abilities2. Each character has a distinct movement style and two primary abilities. For example, Vale is a sniper with a bolt-action rifle, a pistol, proximity mines, and an enhanced vertical leap. Lennox is a gunslinger with two revolvers, explosive throwing knives, and a self-healing ability. Star Child is a brawler with a shotgun, a charge attack, and the ability to harden his skin to resist damage.
