Bodycam

If you want a realistic and badass first-person shooter, Bodycam needs to be on your radar. Me and a buddy were hooked on this early access game that is incredibly made by just a team of two people. This is a blast, and the game is still being worked on, but that does mean that the devs have been dropping patches and not all of the patches have been in the game's best interest if you ask me. Still, after putting some real quality time into this, I wanted to share my thoughts on why this is one of the most fun FPS games I have played in a while.

That Gritty Realism

The goal of Bodycam was to make a realistic, but fun, first-person shooter. The game mechanics do take a few matches to get used to, as the movement is not super fast, run and gun like it is in the Call of Duty games, and you need to be more precise with your shots, as you are not just a bullet sponge, and a carefully timed and aimed shot can be devastating. I get that this thing is not for everyone, but for those who are willing to put the time in and learn how to actually play the game, there is a ton of fun to be had here. Actually, I would recommend spending some quality time playing against bots as this is a great way to learn the game.

This Game Is… The Bomb!

As you would expect with any good FPS game, you have both a deathmatch and a team deathmatch mode for you to enjoy and these are both a lot of fun. The game does fill up with bots if there are not enough players, but for the most part, I ended up getting into games with real people pretty quickly. There is a mode in the game called Body Bomb, and that is awesome. You are on a map and you need to pick up and use the bomb before it goes boom! It is honestly hard to explain just how much fun and exciting this game mode can be. It is a major highlight of the game for sure, and it is something where, when you lose, you will still have a fun time.

Cause This Is Thriller!

I do want to give a little special attention to an awesome game mode that Bodycam has, and that is zombies. Zombies is a staple of the Call of Duty series, and my personal favorite is the one from Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, but this comes damn close! That realistic gameplay style of this game makes the zombie mode even more terrifying, and headshots have never been more important than they are here. I love just trying to see how long I can survive, and this is a mode that my friend and I have had a whole lot of fun with. This is also my go-to game mode if I am just playing on my own and I am not in the mood for getting into a big multiplayer session.

Taking In The Scenery

For a game that is made by just a couple of people, Bodycam is a fantastic looking game and makes full use of what the latest Unreal Engine is offering. The game has some very realistic-looking environments, ranging from a rundown building to the woods, plus, going back to zombies, no other zombie mode looks as terrifying as this one does. Now, the game looks great, but you do need a decent PC to get this thing running at a stable framerate. Also, I do have to say that as of writing, the most recent patch that they did for the game has caused a bit of chaos and has caused many issues, issues that were not there before, and I know that my friend and I have said that we will wait until the patch is fixed before we try and play again.

Pros:

• I loved the zombies mode!
• That new bomb mode is a ton of fun as well
• I got a kick out of how real and gritty this is
• This is one of the best FPS games I have played recently

Cons:

• Some of the patches and fixes cause more problems than they solve
• I would like to see some new content added soon
