Battlefield 4 gépigény

Quake, Unreal, Gears and Halo are all Arena shooters whereas Team Fortress, Battlefield, Shadowrun and CoD are Class-based shooters.

Arena

Quake, Unreal and Halo are all in the same boat when it comes to their roots as Arena shooters and while Gears is a third person cover based shooter it does not remove the fact that it too is an Arena shooter. These 4 games all share the same traits which identify them as "Arena". These traits consist of the following:


All players spawn with equal opportunity when it comes to player ability and potential allowing for predictability in encounters.
Players are not given weapons, items or abilities through pre-selected loadouts but instead must fight to attain the ones that are placed on the map.
-exception in the case of Gears 3 where there are different starting weapons but are balanced against each other
Weapons and items are placed on the map in such a way as to influence map movement and player positioning.
There are no defined roles or specializations for players in the game; everyone is the same and only their play style and skill can influence their performance in game.



Class-based

Team Fortress, Battlefield, Shadowrun and CoD all have some sort of customization be it by class or through personally tailored loadouts. Team Fortress and Shadowrun share similarities with each other in the same way that Battlefield and CoD do, the former have the roles more defined while the latter allows you to tailor a loadout to your liking. The aspects of a class-based shooter are as follow:


Players choose in the pregame lobby what class/role they want to play as and are either locked into that choice or can change it in game.
Players get to customize their weapons, abilities or traits with loadouts which provide an experience that is unique and hand tailored when compared to all other players in the game.
There are no weapons or items on the map to be contested by players and as such there is no way to influence map movement aside from objective gametypes.
Typically feature progression ranking and unlocks for loadouts.
