In such a scenario, PUBG and Fortnite are real trendsetters for the simple fact that they were successful in communicating the first person/third person multiplayer shooter to a wide range of audience in comparison to any other games ever made. Obviously the credit goes to the present date technological conveniences of Cloud and Smartphones combined with top node.js development services for backend without which none of this would have been possible.

The influence can’t be measured just by the increase in volume of the engaging community but also by the fact that it has compelled major tech platforms to undertake serious implementations to join the league. Amazon owned Twitch, Facebook Live, Apple arcade and the highly anticipated Google Stadia & Microsoft Project xCloud are a consequence of the community dominated trend towards multiplayer games. These are signs of the perfect timing to implement your game development projects. Competition will be tougher than ever and is such a circumstance the best way to stand out is to take inspiration from some previously acclaimed games which shall be fresh for the current audience base to witness.

Let us take a look at some great multiplayer titles from the pre smartphone era whose formats can be very well implemented in the could segment.

Potential Titles That Can Be Revived

Far Cry 2

The dynamic graphics and unique open world feature of Far Cry 3 and its following titles made us overlook the multiplayer brilliance of Far Cry 2 which stands as one of the most fair and square action packed multiplayer experience of all time. What made it a stand out was the the exciting game modes that bought a deeper intensity in comparison to the monotonous death matches.

What also kept the label going was the feature of customizing your own maps giving gamers a chance to sketch their own experiences.

Unreal Tournament 2004

It is worth giving a thought to the standards in graphics when you compare older franchises of Unreal and a PUBG which is developed in the Unreal engine. Death matches are bland and boring unless it is the kind that Unreal Tournament dictates. Fast paced, high flying, weapon swapping, head decapitating makes Unreal Tournament the coacine of all video games. Apex legends could be labelled under the same experience, but only if they could add a respawn feature beside the boring Battle Royale Experiences.

Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory

Splinter Cell delivers the ultimate stealth experience if you are one of those silent assassins who likes to play it clean and stick to the job. Chaos Theory was the gaming analogue of an action thriller movie where players would compete against each other more in terms of strategies in a world of hitech gadgets and tons of intel securing missions instead of just seek and destroy missions. This is one of those concepts that eliminates the need for extensive sound effects and gives you space to fill gaps with background music to give a out of box experience to the audience.

Rainbow Six Siege

Counter Strike did try to emulate the SWAT experience but the one that did it better was Rainbow Six Siege. The voice chat feature of PUBG is one of the most contributing experiences and it can work wonders if put to test in a more compact and operation oriented environment dedicated towards a better mission or goal.

Sniper Ghost Warrior

PUBG increased your chances of victory if you managed to score the strongest weapon which is a sniper rifle. Sniper ghost warrior was a competition amongst the players with the best sniper rifles already in their hands. Sneaky, silent and dubious maps combined with the best seek and destroy environments with no scope of failure is every sniper fanatics choice of gameplay.

Whether these games were way ahead of their time or not, today’s technological trends and advancements pave the way for their revival. All of their contributing elements are very much implementable within the resources of any top game App development company.

Affinity For More Competitive Gaming Experiences

While PUBG and Fornite have amassed quite a level of success and it is to be kept in mind that they are the first in their league when it comes to connecting 100 players in one session of action shooting. And they are the most acclaimed labels as of yet. While they have been highly successful in increasing the global number of players and helping them acquire a taste, first person and third person are hence an easier risk to take in today’s date. There are plenty of modes and diverse gameplay styles that haven’t been accommodated in the 2 titles and can be designed to add an extra layer of competition. But more importantly, there is one important thing that games need to accommodate from a financial perspective.

Advantage Of Customizable Game Assets

10 years back, games were a stand alone entity in the sold in CDs, there was less or zero scope of enhancements. With cloud technologies and trends of handheld devices games in this age are constantly adding new elements which help retaining the players and keeping their interests hooked. This is a great business strategy for game development units and benefits a lot from a branding point of view. Game assets can be integrated with elements of any brand and thus can prove a great platform to enhance communication and promotions.

Better Avenues For eCommerce Gamification Strategies

Thanks to the trend of game content streaming, eCommerce gamification will receive better media platforms to showcase their material. Individual reach of notable game streamers shall assist when it comes to harness a particular section of demographic. Not only does this help increase reach for your new game but also helps the particular sponsors or associated with the game. This creates opportunities not just within the game but lets you host contests with a particular platform, of course with the consent of the streamer and how organized your campaign is.

Custom and Season Oriented Campaigns

The ability of game labels to accommodate new updates and enhancements give game developers and sponsors the opportunity and flexibility to incorporate better marketing campaigns. The advantage of incorporating custom game assets bits best in this model as both parties benefit. The sponsors get to host their marketing campaign and the game developer gets to retain their audiences. Marketers look to target specific occasions to orient the current reign of attention towards themselves and the flexibility to create game enhancements accordingly lets the organizer plan prior to the occasion.

About Cocos2d

It’s an open-source software framework. It is mostly used for building apps, games and many other cross-platform GUI based programs which are highly interactive and appealing. It’s split into a lot of branches, the most famous of them being Cocos2d-x, Cocos2d-objc, Cocos2d-XNA, Cocos2d-html5. Its community has developed some independent editors for SpriteSheet editing, font editing, particle editing, Tilemap editing, world editing etc.

Why You Should Go For Cocos2d

Cocos2d is Free

Unlike CryEngine and many others, Cocos2d is absolutely free. Not only is it totally free, but is also royalty-free, so you that the wad of money in your pocket only grows with time. Cocos2d was developed with the help of a large, highly loyal community, so there’s a lot that comes up that you could have for free!

Support, Support Everywhere

As mentioned before, Cocos2d has a loyal community. The community is as helpful as it is loyal. There a lot of developers in its community who know just about everything and they are more than willing to share all of their learnings with you. While learning something new, it is inevitable to find some roadblocks, and when stuck on these roadblocks for too long, you might want to quit learning the language. This never happens with Cocos2d since their community is so helpful that every roadblock of yours is overcome in no time, preventing you from getting bald out of pulling your hair.

Simplicity At Its Best

Cocos2d is incredibly easy to use, owing to its simplicity. Working on three dimensions is a bit scary since an extra dimension means more variables you have to keep track of. This extra dimension is something that Cocos2d skips so the learning curve is pretty good. Moreover, 2D is easier on mind up straight. I have worked on Unreal Engine earlier and I wouldn’t deny, it was scary at the beginning. However, Cocos2d was a lot easier. My childhood has been spent in playing 2D games like Super Mario, Contra and the rest, so making such games myself has been quite a rewarding task for me. Smartphones have mainly relied on 2D games till now so that is something which might make you consider using the engine even more.

It’s Fast

There’s an ongoing myth that the human eye can’t perceive beyond 30 frames per second. In reality, though, the number is a lot bigger(up to 1000 frames per second, according to a few studies). Now, the reason why I mentioned this fact is that it supports 60 frames per second. Trust me, I didn’t say it to anger the PC master race. Anyway, if you keep your code optimal, 60 frames per second is achievable on all devices, even the older ones. It is always better to have a quick game engine, so this engine would be really good if you also find 30 frames per second annoying.

It Has Physics

Not only physics but sounds and level map parser. That’s a lot of things for a lightweight powerhouse, right? I thought so as well. Many game engines have these features as extras which have to be bought but Cocos2d does this for free.

BrainMobi is a leading mobile app and game development company. We are a team of 60+ mobility enthusiasts and have a lot of experience in working on both new as well as old technologies.
