3D DOTA + RPG MMO LOCO 1st Closed Beta Review

LOCO is a real-time strategy action RPG developed by Danal and published by KTH Allstar. Its first closed beta test began on December 28th, 2009. The below is a trial report.

LOCO employs the similar game modes and rules of Warcraft III, but it adopts a TPS mode in terms of game view and controls, which brings players a completely different gaming experience.

Action + Strategy RPG

I felt I was playing Chaos Online or Avalon Heroes when I experienced LOCO for the first time. With the same RTS game rule, LOCO requires players to aim at destroying the opponents' camps and provides gorgeous fighting scenes of action RPGs. The traditional RTS game view is usually in 45 degree oblique perspective, so players can not get closer to the things in the game. However, in LOCO, players are free to switch between the first-person and third-person perspective which enables them to be more absorbed in their characters and enjoy the game better.

Different from traditional RTS games like Starcraft, the rule in LOCO is somewhat like that of DOTA. Besides, LOCO does a good job in team battles. After all, a single player is hardly to win without others' help no matter how strong he/she is. Remember that it is always the secret of success to make full use of each class's characteristics and fight side by side.
