Counter-Strike is a team-based first-person shooter in which players join either the terrorist or counter-terrorist team, and combat the opposing team while fulfilling predetermined objectives. Server settings may automatically balance teams when one team has more players than the other. Each round starts with the two teams spawning simultaneously, as one of eight different default character models.
Each player generally starts with $800, two magazines of ammunition, a knife, and a pistol: a Heckler & KochUSP .45 Tactical for counter-terrorists, and a GLOCK 18c for Terrorists. Players are generally given a few seconds before the round begins (known as "freeze time") to buy equipment, during which time they cannot attack or move in any direction.
Players may buy equipment whenever they are in a "buy zone" for their team (some zones can be for both teams, depending on the map) provided the round has not been in session for longer than a specified time (90 seconds is default). Once the round has ended, surviving players retain their equipment for use in the next round; those who have died begin the next round with the default pistol and knife. Counter-Strike is widely acknowledged as the most successful
and popular of the tactical shooter genre.
Guild Wars, also known as Guild Wars Prophecies, is a Competitive/Cooperative Online Role-Playing Game created by ArenaNet, a subsidiary of the South Korean game publisher NCsoft.
When a new Guild Wars account is created, the new player has four characters to create. A player can choose to create a character (or characters) for either of the two play styles which Guild Wars supports: Player versus player (PvP) or Player versus environment (PvE). The game mechanics for each side are the same but the play style is different for each. A player gives new characters a unique, unchangeable name when they are created. The name must have two parts which might be a first and last name, or a title and a name.
As the name of the game suggests, guilds are a part of the game play. After a guild is created the leader can purchase a cape and design it for the whole guild. They may also purchase a Guild Hall, a private place where only guild members can enter. Within the Guild Hall NPC players can be purchased for convenience, for example, a storage agent, dye trader or a materials trader can be lingering in the Guild Hall. Even though a player is not required to join a guild it does add valuable game-play through comradely. Often, joining a guild is a good way to get help from more experienced players.
Day of Defeat (DoD) is a popular team-based multiplayer World War II first-person shooter computer game that immerses players into a 3D simulated virtual reality of the European Theatre of World War II.
Players choose which side they will fight on and what character class their soldier will be. There are unique soldier classes for the Allies (United States and United Kingdom) and the Axis (Nazi Germany). Class determines which weapons the player will carry, and their appearance.
A round begins with two opposing teams starting simultaneously in their respective spawn area of a map. A round ends when one team accomplishes all of its objectives. Player casualties become reinforcements which are supplied according to a timer. The reinforcements originate at spawn and can be composed of anywhere from 1 soldier to the entire team. The reinforcement timer is usually between 10-20 seconds, but this time may vary from server to server.
After many rounds, the game ends when a set time limit expires, and the team with the most objectives achieved is the winning team regardless of kills or casualties, except in the case where both teams have not achieved any objectives or are tied in the objective score. The scoreboard is displayed and the game is restarted, usually with another map. There really is no "The End" to Day of Defeat.
