Not sure if this has been posted yet, did a search but couldn't find anything. Gamespot has the alpha test just released, 1.46Gb download, homepage for this is here. Can't wait! Only 1 hour 10 mins remaining!

/EDIT: Not sure if you neeed to be a subscriber or not, I've got gamespot complete so perhaps thats why.

You probably can, there is no reason why not, although to be honest I think the gamespot complete only cost me like £25 a year so its not a vast amount really.
 
Are those screenies in-game graphics? My god that game looks beatiful.. RTS.. modern day.. i think im in heaven.. but im not paying for an Alpha test.. just glad to see this game.. where has it been hiding?!
 
Either gamespot or fileplanet has a massive 20 odd minute display with the developers describing the game to the media, real time graphics and everything... Watch the bit where the nuke explodes... Awesome!

sorry to go off topic, is GS complete worth it?
Dunno really, I bought it in 2004 and cant be bothered to unsubscribe as the cost is nothing really. You get full download speed and stuff so it can be useful.
 
This game has the best Nuke in a game from what i have seen in video the explosion and ploom of smoke is awesome.

only thing i would say about it is it dosnt cover much of an area then it should but maybe thats deliberate. Anyway im not going to pay just to play Beta demo should be not far off so ill wait for that.

Lets us know what its like guys do some screenshots a videos if you want well thats if your not under NDA. :)

Edit: A10 tankbuster looks awesome also. :cool:
 
Well, although I guess I'm under an NDA on this, the game appears to be quite awesome. Running full detail @ 1280x1024 on an 1950 Pro, Vista x86 and Athlon 64 3200+. Smooth as silk I've found. You generally have lots (maybe 8) of people per side, so I guess you could liken it to an RTS version of BF2 with take and hold missions etc. Seems quite stable at the moment, even for an Alpha release!
 
I thought it was only available to those with Gamespot Complete memberships, and in that situation they could stipulate an NDA effectively.
 
Thats a bit strange then. What's going to stop one guy from spilling all the beans? Kinda like how pseudo-public alphas of various other games are constantly being leaked (Halo 3 in Iraq, etc)

I've seen a few of those go of so far while in the game and the effect is astounding. Completley lag free when it happens, and boom and entire area oblitarated, and then you get darkness over that area and static as the wind moves the debris and dust away...

The game is so far so good, interesting to play with 4/5 other people on the same side all going for objectives! Refreshing!
