I was bit underwhelmed at the start of the gameplay one but once they got the base it looked fun. Bring it on

Sleepery · 4 Sep 2010 at 16:56

Yeah actually, the bit at the end especially, where the home base gets attacked is cool.

Cell shading. Why, god, why?!!?

Each to their own - I prefer a stylised look to something uncanny valley tastic like Crysis.

You never know till you play it and see if it connects and punches the addiction buttons. Fair to say from the video though, they've built a solid looking game world with decent gameplay mechanics.

The quality of the free to play games realy has ramped up in the last couple of years, looking forward to trying this one out... being an oldschool tribes fan.

I suppose it's all to do with immersion - the landscape is really realistic, but the pasted on cartoon look just serves to remind me I'm playing a game.

At least crysis is close enough that you can suspend your disbelief for a while.

Tribes was an immense game hope to see some quality here

No PvP. Free is cool, but free games seem to get hacked a lot. So no from me.

itll be interesting how this one turns out, wonder if anyone will ever actually crack the mmofps genre.
(probably end up with world of modern warfare 16!)

Graphics look to cartoony like WoW.

Age of Empires online graphics are also over cartoonized to appeal to the WoW fan base.

I hate cartoony graphics.

Looks pretty fun.

Don't like the cel type shader tbh, after watching the cinematic, was hugely disappointed.

LokiS · 17 Sep 2010 at 15:58

The movie was meh and so did the gameplay trailer at first, but I gotta say after watching all of the trailer it looked pretty impressive to play and its Free to play to boot. Will check it out, looks fun.. Then again it will probably be in god knows how many years

Sleepery · 17 Sep 2010 at 16:01

Same here - I don't like cell shading, and at first the trailer looked very average, but got much more interesting as it went on
