Welcome to Hellgate London !

Hellgate London is a computer game under development by Flagship Studios at this moment in time its at the Demo stage so you can download Hellgate from around the internet . The design of the game is similar in a number of ways to the Diablo series. This is due to influence of Flagship Studios co founders including a number of ex Blizzard North employees.

Hellgate London is an action role playing game which has some first person shooter elements in a post-apocalyptic setting. The Hellgate London Gameplay is based heavily on the character’s stats. The First Person Shooter known as ” FPS “ element of Hellgate London will be seen in the Hunter faction and will require some skill to use. Soft aim will be included in the game as a form of aim assistance. One preview described the game as World of Diablo, a cross between World of Warcraft which is an MMOFPS and Diablo II.

Hellgate London Game Play

Hellgate London combines role playing game mechanics with first person shooter gameplay ” FPS “. Although the game looks and plays much like a first person shooter, characters do level up, receive points to spend into skills or character statistics, and the outcome of a battle is influenced as much by items as by player skill.

Hellgate London game builds heavily upon the core design of roguelikes by using random generation of dungeon maps, monsters, and loot to allow for a high degree of replayability.

Hellgate London Multiplayer is focused on cooperative player vs. environment known as PvE combat, there will be a simple duel-based player vs. player  PvP  mode, and Elite subscribers will gain access to full fledged arenas and a PvP ladder.

Hellgate London in multiplayer mode, players can meet and organize for team play and quests in safe zones - the old Underground stations, protected by the Freemasons’ wards. The world will not be split in “shards” or servers, but rather play like a massively multiplayer online game with heavy instancing, something like Guild Wars. Every character is capable of soloing the entire game. Grouping with other players is optional, though grouping will bring benefits in terms of experience gain and items. Difficulty will be balanced where the opposition grows stronger as more players play in the instanced areas.

Hellgate London Weapons

Hellgate London weapons will base their power on character stats more than a player’s aiming skills, being more of an RPG than an FPS in this regard. For example, a player can place points in an Accuracy statistic that determines the randomness of the rounds they fire. The more points into Accuracy you have, the tighter the spread of the bullets will be.

Each weapon type does have a very different effect. For example, the Grizzly Rifle fires a stream of energy that causes splash damage on impact; the Rebounder fires elastic energy balls that ricochet off walls; and the Cabalist-only Locust Hive is a short ranged rifle that causes a swarm of robotic insects to sting and damage the target over time. Melee weapons are less varied, but there are swords that can inflict toxic poison or explode with splash damage on striking.

Besides the behavior, the weapons, close and ranged combat alike, can do several different kinds of damage. Each damage type also imparts a special negative effect on a critical hit:

• Physical - Can cause enemies to get knocked down.
• Fire - Can set targets on fire, draining 5% of their total life per second.
• Spectral - Phase shifts targets, causing them to deal less damage and take more damage.
• Toxic - Poisons the targets, making them suffer negative effects over time.
• Electrical - Can stun a target, rendering it unable to move or attack.
