Combat Arms (video game): Difference between revisions

{{work}}

 

[[Allegedly Free Game|The game has a rental system when it comes to its weapons and gear.]] Everyone in the game gets an M16, a M9, a knife, and a grenade as default gear, but as the game is played, they earn GP or gear points, which allows them to rent new guns and accessories for an amount of time.

The game also features the Black Market, an in-game shop in which the currency is NX points, which are purchased with real money. This shop includes new character models, guns with cooler looks, double xp abilities, and the ability to change the default weapons permanently to better weapons.

** It's there on the game page, but you're probably not looking for it.

* [[Allegedly Free Game]]: Not as bad as other examples, really. If you're good enough, you can still kick ass with your basic gear.

* [[Bluenose Bowdlerizer]]: The in-game chat censors out swear words, including words such as s'''[[Scunthorpe Problem|nip]]'''er.

** Thankfully, you can turn off the curse filter now, and swear to your heart's delight. Which most players do.

* [[Bribing Your Way to Victory]]: Some of the better weapons and gear can only be bought with real money. Some weapons are simply more stylish (the [[G 36 E]] Valkyrie), while others are distinctly improved. Most weapons pale in comparison to the gear offered, including much-improved combat vests, and the commonly seen 'speed gear'.

* [[Cool Guns]]: Some of the weapons and weapons skins you can pick up in the shop and black market, [[Bling Bling Bang|gold plating]] among them.

* [[Critical Existence Failure]]: You can run around with 1 HP, but fall down several feet and...

* [[Easter Egg]]: At one point, delving into some of the games files and looking into some user configuration text files revealed some leftover bits including such variables as "vehicle turn speed" and "toggle night vision." While the night vision was actually teased (before it was changed) by a loading screen for the map Rattlesnake with a picture of a merc using a pair of goggles with a pistol drawn, none of it never came to be. In subsequent updates, the variables were removed.

** And expanded with Fireteam's 'Cabin Fever' map. The plot currently deals with a potential [[Zombie Apocalypse]] in the making.

* [[Fackler Scale of FPS Realism]]: Zig-zags between Classic and Realistic. Matters of accuracy, sprinting, and weapon carrying capacity stay mostly realistic, but balance always comes first, leading to the ability to take a rocket launcher to the face [[Made of Iron|and keep going]].

** Nobody really does explain how her body armor makes use of ''[[Sexy Backless Outfit|her back being completely exposed]]''.

** Further played by another specialist, Raven, though she does not wear a [[Too Dumb to Live|backless outfit]] like Viper.

* [[Rule of Cool]]: Some of the accessories and gun skins fall under this. They don't do really anything else but follow this rule.

* [[Rule of Funny]]: Some of the items found in-game can be this, like exploding football grenades and oversized turkey leg clubs.

** The boxes found through many maps say [[Metal Gear|"Not Suitable for Solid S"]]

** As of the 2012 St. Patrick's Day update, The Gold Gun is now available for use. It does not kill in one hit, however.
