Some of my favorite moments include fighting the first boss of the game, a Brumak. Due to how jittery the cursor is, skills like these turn out to be tedious, which takes away from the gameplay.

I ran into a similar issue when deciding where to throw a grenade to deliver maximum damage. However, this is a bit finicky, as I had to place my cursor in just the right position to get it to work properly. While you’re selecting the enemy you want to mince, you can also select which cover or open space your character lands on.

They happen to be more than visually pleasing, as the Chainsaw and Bayonet Charge skills provide a surefire way to kill an enemy without taking a chance with your sketchy accuracy. Meanwhile, on the receiving end, I’ve been caught in Overwatch range despite being just outside of the displayed area of effect, which is incredibly frustrating.Ī couple of great skills that highlight the franchise’s bloodlust for gore are the Chainsaw and Bayonet Charge. My biggest crux with Overwatch is that if two units have an overlapping area of effect, the units will shoot at the same time at the first target, thus wasting the opportunity to hit a second or third enemy possibly caught in Overwatch. However, I have run into a couple issues with it. And having Disabling Shot to counter an enemy’s Overwatch balances the mechanic. This is especially important when enemies are out of attack range and you want to wait for them to come to you. Overwatch is a neat system that gives you the option to plan attacks ahead of time. On the opposite end of that, Disabling Shot is designed to interrupt an enemy’s Overwatch. Overwatch lets you select an area (a cone) and shoot any targets that run into it with your invested AP, a tactic particularly effective against Wretches. The four guaranteed moves each character can perform, no matter what class they are, are Shoot, Overwatch, Reload and Disabling Shot.
