Smite As A Multiplayer Online Battle Game

By Zoe Hastings


It may not be possible to go see a match between gods but at least it is possible to design how it would look like. This is through Smite, which is a Multiplayer Online Battle Game or simple MOBA. It is in 3D and has a third person camera perspective making it more interactive. Greek, Egyptian, Hindu, Roman among other mythical gods exist in this game.

The players are organized into two groups with each team comprising three to five players depending in the game mode. At the start of gameplay, the players are granted some gold to be able to purchase items or upgrade others. The game begins at opposite sides of the map.

There are lanes from either side of the map to the other which are defended by phoenix accompanied by two defensive towers. There are four game modes that players can choose from. In most Multiplayer Online Battle Games, conquest is the most common 5 versus 5 game play. To win this particular Conquest, you must kill the Titan of the opposing team. The time is not limited and one game may last for hours.

Arena game mode is the second game mode available for the game. It has two teams just like Conquest which battle in a coliseum. Minions circle around the middle and are very important in the game play. If you lose yours more of your points are deducted and you lose the match if they run out. Assault is another way of playing this game where the players are given a random god. Trickle of gold here is faster.

Joust is the last mode is a good one for beginners as it gives variations of one to one or three to three players. As a result, it also good for battling with friends. It has one lane, one tower and a phoenix on both sides. League Joust mode is for solo players. There are different types of god to battle. To tell them apart from the crowd each of them has different abilities.

The abilities of a god defines how the particular god plays. For example, if you are seeking to damage enemies, you may employ Thor. The number of points, level and type of game influences the type of god to choose. In addition, one may loan or modify the abilities of a god. This will involve modifying their basic attack techniques or their spells.

Crowd control, buffs and area of effect damage are some of particular spells from gods which may be modified. There is an area called the jungle that exists between the continuous lanes in which monsters roam periodically. Just like in other games, there are items that are purchased or given as bonuses which influence the game. In this game, these items are in a three level tier.

The tiers are leveled up by use of gold and with each increase in a tier, there are more benefits. To buy or increase the level of items can only happen at the base. When a player is already in battle, there is an option to teleport back to the base freely but they should be able to walk back to where they were.
