What is a MOBA?

Multiplayer Online Battle Arenas, or MOBAs for short, originated as a sub-genre of the RTS (Real-Time Strategy) genre. Because of this, in most MOBA games, the player takes control of a single character from the isometric (top-down) view akin to most RTS games. Typically, in MOBA games, a player takes control of a single character on one of two teams. Those players choose characters that all have their own abilities, or “kits”. To win, the players must use a combination of abilities, teamwork, and strategy to not only best their opponent, but destroy the opponents main structures. A bonus to the genre is that most MOBAs are free games, which is definitely a contributing factor of the their massive success. The genre has many titles, the largest of which being Defense of the Ancients (DoTA) and DoTA 2, League of Legends (LoL), and most recently SMITE!

What is SMITE?

SMITE is one of the more recent free MOBA games to enter the fray. In SMITE you don’t just choose a character, you choose a god. You’ll instantly feel an attachment to characters like Thor and Zeus because even if you don’t know the lore behind them, you’ve at least heard their names before! What makes SMITE so immersive is Hi-Rez Studios’ inclusion of historical lore into the gods’ abilities, kits, and play styles. Thor and Loki aren’t just characters from Marvel comics and movies. They’re also a part of Norse mythology and you can take control of them in SMITE!

What makes SMITE different?

SMITE takes all of the strategy of the top MOBA games and adds another layer of difficulty by putting you into the action! Unlike most MOBA games, SMITE offers players the chance to experience the MOBA genre they know and love from a third-person perspective. This unique perspective allows for an extremely immersive experience unlike any other game in the genre. While this doesn’t sound like such a big change, once you play it you’ll understand! All of these things added together is what has gaming websites everywhere continually rating SMITE as one of the best MOBA games available!

YAY more and more bugs! Oh never mind they made a tons of skins...

[pytohd]

please stop realising skins and gods and actually fix the old gods.

[sebastianh]

Two weeks waiting and I can't play, servers down and bugged store, nice!

[kinderriegel]

"First of all: Skins"
Yea. You aint having Patch Notes anymore, only Skin Notes. Moneygreed Company. You should be bought by EA.

[singmysin]

People complain about skins when it's only lol 4 or 5 each patch when they are blind to the multiple bugs they do patch and fix not all are the right choices but they do try altogether there are around 25 or more changes and fixes they made go and actually read the patch notes

I bought 3500 gems and they did not give them to me but they charged me (ps4)

[trilljeremy]

When would the servers go back up for ps4?

[dougdimmadabs]

After 3 years of this game I'm slowly lossing interest in it Idk why.

[antoniopisani]

I am waiting for 5.11 because we'll have Baron Samedi

[brandonsanchez]

I had a bug where I had to buy the Scylla skin separate unless it’s supposed to be like that but then why did they say every skin would be in the chests?

[TheFirstCurse]

All of the skins I got from the champions and winners chests are now not owned and every time I click on them it just says "limited" with no description.

[jaylon]

Can you try fixing Smite for Xbox? Everytime I try playing my whole game crashes and everytime I join back 30 seconds to a minute later and it crashes AGAIN! I have uninstalled once and it fixed it for a little bit but it just came back more frequently. I uninstalled it again and reinstalled it and it crashed at the loading screen! Please help

[adamsandler]

After 100 gods, please take a break, at least for a little bit.
Fix your match making, fix your balance issues, and fix your bugs, then we can see about skins and gods. Please?

[ramonstunts_]
