    I've been playing smite now for 3 years, but there's somethings I feel I need to write.
    Game Matching:
    This game has no sense of player matching, from pairing very low levels to the very high, so this'll mean during matches as a experienced player you'll come across players who'll instant lock and then proceed to play awfully crushing your chances of winning. Communication: Whilst    I've been playing smite now for 3 years, but there's somethings I feel I need to write.

    Communication:
    Whilst trying to team communicate with the team you'll be surprised with something special, no one speaks your language, ever tried to talk to a different native over the phone? It's exactly like that, but they're still throwing because they can't understand anything.
    Role Picking:
    Enjoy a specific role? Well look further because you'll never get to play it! That's correct never, I've been playing smite for 3 years as said and the players you'll come across are selfish and only instant lock, meaning you have to try and build a team around them that'll stand, and hey bonus feature, they don't always play that role! (Meta: Player picks a role but plays them completely different to work an advantage) which never works.
    Final conclusion:
    I enjoy the game when it's decent, you need to find friend who'll stick to a role or switch around now and then otherwise you will lose, if you play by yourself you'll be added to a game with groups (like joust, you + a group of two on a team) that'll let you die because you're not part of their friend group, and finally never expecting anything to go right because people on this game prove to be extremely stupid and have the common sense and mental thought of a child.    … Expand

    I started playing Smite not long after it left beta, and being a 3rd person game felt more confortable playing using a joystick, and since I've always played for fun it never hindered me. I ended up buying the gods pack and some skins, among them some timed ones like poolseidon. Then it launched for PS4 and I was hyped.

But when they opened the account transfer period (PC -> PS4) I discovered the hard way that my account wasn't eligible, and you know why? Because not long before that I transfered it to LATAM, in hopes to get better ping. When I contacted the support of the game, explaining the situation the one and only answer was that they couldn't do anything. It is a shame, I actually quite like this game, but with this kind of support I won't ever touch it again.… Expand

    Smite is a innovative take on the Moba style with it being a 3rd person moba over the whole over the head or birds eye view but sadly that innovation is not enough to make me say that this is a great title. if your looking for a casual moba where team fights or grouping up is going to allow you to win then this game is for you but Hi rez studios has not made any changes to characters thatSmite is a innovative take on the Moba style with it being a 3rd person moba over the whole over the head or birds eye view but sadly that innovation is not enough to make me say that this is a great title. if your looking for a casual moba where team fights or grouping up is going to allow you to win then this game is for you but Hi rez studios has not made any changes to characters that are op or underpowered which means unless your playing as some of the most op of characters you will prob not win. i would say there are many better games that are mobas out there i would rate this higher if the game had more changes. as a streamer i would highly not recommend wasting the time playing this

    Pros
    a innovative take on the classic moba
    Champions have very recognizable stories due to them being based on the mythological gods
    works fairly well on ps4

    Cons
    No changes nerfs and buffs don't happen very often
    People always steal kills
    hard to find good teams unless you are playing with friends
    a number of op items and relics that might need changes most of the op items are with the mage class    … Expand

    this game is actually really bad, the matchmaking sucks, once you get to ranked you have to master so many gods to even play. the stability of this game is the worst even, every game at least one person gets kicked out, instead of fixing it they focus on bringing out more gods. if this is the quality they can expect from Hi-rez it is bad.

    At first it seem to be a good game well made... but by time you realize that what it seem is not what it is. Let's begin with the matchmaking.. or in fact the non-matchmaking. Let's say you're a new player to the game and play your first match against real player. If you're lucky, you'll be teamed with experienced player that have a lot of hour of game play against low experienced playerAt first it seem to be a good game well made... but by time you realize that what it seem is not what it is. Let's begin with the matchmaking.. or in fact the non-matchmaking. Let's say you're a new player to the game and play your first match against real player. If you're lucky, you'll be teamed with experienced player that have a lot of hour of game play against low experienced player so you'll easily win the game even if it is the first time you play. So the matchmaking doesn't even care of the skill or ability of the player and make team that are totally unbalance. That's the first point.

    For my second point, let say that it is the environment itself. Since I begin to play, I've been bullied and even receive messages directly in my PlayStation player box from player that want to insult me or even to show off the fact that they win. I had to restrict my message box to avoid those kind of message that was uncanny and hurting.

    Finally, my last point, the game is full of "BUG". Some gods have attacks that don't work properly or just didn't work at all. The game crash really often and, often, in the middle of a battle. So you either be killed or just be kick out of the game. Twice I had bugs like that and couldn't return in the game or return but the game was still bugged and receive a deserter penalty and couldn't play for 30 minutes.

    So if you want to have a pleasant and entertaining game don't choose this one, you'll regret it. I have looked to the other review and realize that I wasn't the only one that think that... what a shame for a game that would be fun otherwise.    … Expand

    Smite is a game that exists and I and many others enjoy, it’s not a phenomenal game, it’s not a revolutionary game and it’s not all to uniue but it’s certainly enjoyable especially with friends. It’s not a game that you’ll constantly come running back to and it can be easy to get bored of because of how repetitive it can get but thanks to it’s free price it’s definitely worth trying to seeSmite is a game that exists and I and many others enjoy, it’s not a phenomenal game, it’s not a revolutionary game and it’s not all to uniue but it’s certainly enjoyable especially with friends.

    The most unbalanced Moba i have ever played. Oneshot or be oneshot in the entire game. A complete CC fest that forces you to watch how you are forced in 1 place for literal 10 seconds, just because you dared to do the mistake of getting hit by a single skillshot. The new Gods are more broken than anything i have ever seen.

    It's tough to get into, but once you crossed that threshold, this PC port will grab you by the throat and not let go any time soon.

    While the tutorials could see some work, and the tooltip text and other UI elements of the PlayStation 4 version are inconsistent in their size, this doesn’t detract from the game’s solid foundation.

    From the outset, it’s clear that SMITE is a perfect fit for consoles.
