This is a free-to-play multiplayer-only first-person shooter that's part of the Tribes franchise and made with the Unreal 3 engine. It uses a similar model to League of Legends, where you can buy loadouts with real money or currency earned in-game. It's got a slew of maps and game modes, and is probably the fastest shooter currently on the market. The open beta start features five maps, nine customizable classes, and three modes: Rabbit, a free-for-all mode which awards points to the flag carrier; Team Deathmatch, which awards double points to kills scored by the flag-holding team; and traditional Capture the Flag. A new mode called Arena Deathmatch includes two maps specifically designed for it; a new CTF map, Temple Ruins; a new Team Deathmatch map, Inferno; two new Soldier class unlocks; as well as several interface changes, balance tweaks, and bug fixes. Purchasing gold gives you immediate access to additional classes and weapons, but those can also be acquired with experience earned in-game, and upgrades like larger clips and reduced reload times can only be earned with XP, so lacking funds won’t put you at a serious disadvantage. In Feb/2013, a Game Of The Year Edition was released for $29.99 for everything. VIPs, meanwhile, can instantly unlock all weapons, perks, and classes for $19.99. |
