Global Agenda

Post by MidKnight »

A number of us Springers bought it, and we are all (I think) enjoying the game. The spring group racked up nearly 200 hours of gameplay in a week.

As to the game itself, it seems a lot like how KDR described Section 8, but, not having played that game, I can't make any real comparison. The game, while a little rough in some places, has some very good gameplay. I'd describe it as TF2 in the future with lasers and jetpacks and MMORPG dynamics. I really like how tactics plays a bigger role than plain twitching ability.

The game has 4 classes, which are pretty interesting. There's an engineer that can deploy turrets, med stations, shields, and little minion robots. There's a 'recon' guy who can turn invisible. He's lots of fun to play, but you can screw your team if you don't go after the right things. There's also a medic with poison grenades and stuff, and an assault/tank class, neither of which I've played very much of yet, but they seem pretty fun, too.

There's a leveling dynamic, which can become grind-ey, but the developers (OMG NOT EA!!) seem capable and willing to expand the game and add more variety, so that's probably going to get better with time.

Lastly, the game looks quite nice:

At this point, the only Medic in the group is me, and I haven't played for a while. Medic is probably the least fun, as far as the overall games goes, but somebody has to do it. New players will really enjoy Recon and Robotics, which happen to be the most powerful single PvE classes and quite crucial to PvP.

ok conquest is free until the end of march, otherwise it's 11Ôé¼ a month to play it, so conquest is the MMO and without subscription you play the classic coop game

No, it's not. Matches are regular FPS matches in PvP, 10 versus 10. The conquest mode is basically Planetwars except with a different game to play the actual battles. I heard there are vehicles in AvA (Conquest) but there's only one bot in the capture-the-bot gamemode.

My Steam profile says I haven't played a game in the last two weeks, I don't need another one.
