Space Battles In Multiplayer Games

By Leanne O. Runolfsdottir


The space battles are some of the most exciting moments of modern science fiction based video games because of the unique challenges they present to gamers. Games have been evolving in notable ways during the last few decades and have been forever altered thanks to the multiplayer potential unlocked by the Internet. Massively multiplayer online role playing games, shortened as MMORPG's, have broken the old classic multiplayer approach of just 4 players connected through a console. You will never be able to succeed in a multiplayer online game if you depend on the gameplay strategies that you have used for one-player games in the past; teamwork is important in these games.

MMORPG's designed with science fiction concepts include many space battles, some of which take place on the ground, others of which are fought in spaceships. In most cases, you will get into little battles with enemies that do not represent a significant threat and can be defeated using just the weapons that your character has. When you defeat the enemy, you get the chance to loot the items they were carrying and will earn experience points that help strengthen your character.

The actual challenges are shown to you in space battles that force you to work together with a team composed of several other gamers. These battles are normally experienced at the end of long quests or missions and tend to be fought against boss enemies. Game design teams make boss battles more difficult by giving the principle enemies powerful attacks and lots of defensive power; beating them takes a lot of work. Your group should have a nice balance of offensive and defensive characters; if you go into battle with all offensive players, you will quickly find that the enemy's attacks overpower you.

When creating a group in your preferred online game, be sure to choose teammates that are at a similar skill level as you and have abilities that complement those of your character. If each person in your group has strong offensive abilities but you have no supportive or defensive characters, your team could get into trouble quickly during a difficult battle.

Space battles offer you the opportunity to use your character's abilities to the full and to work along with other gamers in order to earn lots of experience points and useful in-game items. If you want additional players to support you during intense battles, make sure that your character is prepared with good abilities and items and ready to help the team claim victory over every enemy that comes its way.
