There’s a lot about Riot’s upcoming FPS **Valorant ** that’s still being kept under wraps, but according to one source, the developer has revealed one bizarre weapon skin based on the quirky League of Legends joke character, Urf. Valorant is already being talked about as major competition for games like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and Overwatch , despite so little being known about


The CW is bringing up the rear as far as the 2017 network upfronts are concerned. The younger-skewing network is following the likes of ABC, CBS, FOX, and NBC, which have all presented their new wares to advertisers, showing off what new comedies and dramas are coming to broadcast television. This year, the networks have presented a slew of new shows, with ABC and CBS offering a surprising amount of never-before-seen programming to their lineups. As usual, The CW is doing things a little differently, with only four new shows coming to the network this year – two in the fall with Valor and Dynasty , and two as midseason premieres in Black Lightning and Life Senten


The second Act of Valor installment will probably wind up with a subtitle, rather than being called **Act of Valor 2 ** . We'll keep you posted on the developing project as more information is made availa


McCoy and Waugh will produce the new Act of Valor movie installment, but the screenwriting and directing responsibilities are going to be handled by Scott Wiper instead. The latter has made such films as the small-town vigilante feature Captain Jack , the police/Mafia thriller A Better Way to Die and the "death match as televised entertainment" action-thriller The Condemned (which was released well-after The Running Man , but before The Hunger Game movie). If you have never heard of, much less seen , any of these films, well... that's may be because most of them were box office duds and critical misfi


There's a twist to the classic tactical shooter experience: players will be able to choose from a set of agents all with their own unique skills and abilities - not unlike League of Legends - that hail from real-world locations and cultures. The abilities will not only change the way of shooting as the most basic principle; they will also provide strategic advantages, as well as tactical support. The game will be based on an attackers vs defenders style, set on a near-future Earth, with unique tactical opportunities enabled by each character's skill


It’s servicemen and women across the board and I’m talking even outside of the military in terms of the police departments, the fire departments. People coming up to us and thanking us for really honestly showing that world…To me, it’s hard for me cause I’m like ‘it’s the reverse, man. I’m the one thanking you guys. I’m just showing your world honestly


Stunt coordinators-turned directors Mike McCoy and Scott Waugh's feature-length debut, **Act of Valor ** , was an ambitious undertaking that required the duo to work alongside cast members who possess real-world experience serving as Navy SEALs. The movie was heralded by military families and servicemen for bringing a greater sense of realism to the action and combat sequences (compared to the average Hollywood military ops thriller); however, its video game-like story progression and character interactions left many critics and non-military types with more lukewarm feelings ( read our review , for examp


In all, __ The CW has a fairly limited new crop of shows, which speaks to the success of its current lineup and the way the network seems to make midseason premieres work so well. Time will tell if any of the above shows will make it through their first seas


As far as story beats and character development goes: Act of Valor , so far, seems pretty standard. Because of the nature of its narrative, there's a risk the film could feel very video game-like, with serviceable (if unremarkable) dramatic exchanges and character beats largely serving as the glue that connects each new mission undertaken by the Bandito Platoon. That won't be a problem for moviegoers who are just looking for a more accurate, but still stylized portrayal of military ops onscreen; however, those who are hoping for a richer exploration of the average Navy SEAL's mindset may walk away disappoin


Valor certainly looks like something The CW hasn't really attempted before. There are hints of Homeland and Courage Under Fire buried in the very long first look trailer, as the military drama strikes a similar chord in terms of its characters being forced to reconcile with decisions made while in combat overseas. Like Dynasty , there are some questions as to whether or not Valor will connect with the network's younger-skewing audience -- especially since it lacks star power of any kind -- but its central mystery and various dramatic conflicts might be enough to keep viewers enga


Previously known as Project Ares , Valorant is just one of several games that Riot recently announced it’s working on. The League of Legends developer is also working on a new fighting game and a dungeon crawler, as well as the card battler Legends of Runeterra , which is currently in beta. If that wasn’t enough, the developer also recently launched a whole new division devoted to making tabletop games. Aside from Legends of Runeterra , valorant strategy|Https://valorantfocus.com/ looks to be the furthest along of any of Riot’s new projects , or at least the one players have the most information ab
