First post (Loadout weapon customization)


So since this is my first post, I'm going to make it a little taste of what you will get on this blog. I have been lately pouring a lot of time into this wonderful game Loadout. It is a free-to-play shooter with amazing cartoony graphics and super fluid and fun gameplay. I will write a more thorough look at the game later, but now I wanted to write a little bit about its amazing weapon customization.

The guns can get quite crazy and beefy.
 Loadouts weapons are made of different parts such as the stock, scope and barrel. These can be changed to different kinds of parts which you can buy with in-game currency, real money or you can get them as rewards for leveling up or by playing matches. The weapons ammo type can be also changed to a healing, buffing, or damage inflicting types such as lightning, fire or normal bullet.

You can also test your weapons at a testing range before purchasing or using already owned parts to build your gun. Of course some combinations are better than others and the game might have some balance issues, but it is still basically in closed beta. Currently it is in early access on Steam and you can get in the game by buying a bundle which includes many different things. The cheapest of these bundles is 9,99€.
