'FBC: Firebreak' preview: Controlled chaos
Remedy's co-op shooter is incredibly fun — it just needs a little polish.
The Jump Kit is based around electricity and it has the Electro-Kinectic Charge Impactor, a portable jackhammer kind of device with a conductive metal plate on the end, capable of slamming into enemies or propelling yourself into the air. You’ll also have to repair some of the environmental features in order to fully take advantage of them — for instance, the shower initially spews out cold water, which can freeze players while they’re trying to heal, but you can send in someone with the Fix Kit (me!) Firebreak does a great job of rewarding teams that stick together — you get an extra shield when you’re near your friends, and a bright visual cue accompanies this bonus, consistently reminding you to stay as a group.
