Arctic Combat / Battle Territory: Battery - Arctic Wind / Battery Online NHN Games / WebZen Inc. 2010

This game has a bleakly war-ridden global picture at somewhere around 2020: Resources crunch, as many fear now, really turns out to be the last draw on camels' back, pushing nations, big or small, out into cross-fires for the preciously meager which could nonetheless still keep things going for a while. The whole world thus becomes an inclusive Territory for Battle, where the entire military range from infantries, air forces to navy armies enter into tussles for dominance, and all modern arsenals such as cannons, destroyers or long-range missiles dash along for supremacy. Battle Territory, AKA, Battery, a futuristic military-strike MMORPG from the first person shooting perspective. The world is divided into two factions lead by America (AF) and Russia (RSU.) One side is the Attack Team and the other side is the Defense Team. From there each team will have a mission to destroy a target or stop others from destroying this target. They will be able to choose between different bomb carrier and a variety of settings available for the mode. These teams change sides in a cycle which keeps the team balance for the game. Gameplay is tough, speedy, gory and intensely realistic. The game is designed on the Unreal Engine 2.5 which means the graphics and gameplay will be both fluid and familiar to veteran gamers. There is a skill system and trophies to earn which help give the game a sense of progression. Battery soldiers never fight an aimless battle with nothing in return and would not waste a single shot with some random target. When they do gun someone down, it got to be something there that makes sense, be it an assassination of the enemies' head, a scuffle about a supply gateway, a rescuing operation of the big potatoes, or any other part of an entire carefully-crafted military plan. The great thing about modern warfare is that you can always expect a battling scene much more sensually-pervasive and visual-impacting than those spears-plus-shields ancient body-fights can ever provide. Bombs dropped from the hovering escort fighters up in the air, clashes heard between the lurking sub-marines deep down under the sea, and explosions fired from the giant tanks thundering their way across the battle zone. The English version was released in Dec/2012 and shut down Sep 2/2013.
