Originally posted by Yamota The match-made content maybe. As far as competitive shooters go, it's drawing more from Tribes than anything else. But aside from having these tournaments and team based games, there's a fully persistent online world to play in when you're not PvP-ing. It's going to be something unique, that's for sure. |

Reminds me a little of The Agency (if that's not dead at this point), but in a Sci-fi guise. Looks interesting though, always nice to see something a bit different. |

I love the style and i think it looks so amazing. I expect it will be the first free to play game ive played that ill be happy to spend money in the cash shop. Maybe not but thats how awesome it looks to me. |

Looks good, but still wait for more info and play footage for Planetside Next, though it would suck if Planetside Next turned out to be a graphical upgrade to the old one and done to run on PS3, that would suck.

if the fights can be involving 400+ players then it might be worth looking at.. otherwise.. planetside does it much better, any online mmo shooter is inevitably going to be measured alongside planetside, and if it can't do things at least as well.. then.. i am not sure just having shinier graphics is going to really cut it.. |

Game looks awesome and i'm looking forward to it. Though, only selling cosmetics and "extra's" .... is that really enough cash flow to support a game like this? The Repopulation - Scfi Fi Sandbox. |

How are they going to generate revenue? I just do not see cosmetics being enough to support this long term. If the "extra's" are game changing then it will be a issue.

FPS? If it is a pure FPS shooter then there goes the immersion, PvE or PvP. In FPS the immersion is with a weaponj and not with a character. There are hints that there is more to it than that but only hints. For the majority of players of MMO's there has to be more than aim and shoot. Even EVE, the ultimate PvP centric game, found that to grow they needed more than PK. Since it is F2P with stated PvE content I will certainly give it a try but if I can't see my avatar while playing, only a gun or little window view from inside then I doubt I will stay. Give us both types of play and I will gladly try it out. Good luck to the launch and am placing the Homepage of Firefall on my Favorites list to check up how it is going. |

Excellent post. Been wondering what was happening with the game & if it was still on track for a Q4 release; also glad to see its still F2P all around. Any chance hearings of when the beta will start up? Haven't heard much on that front in a long time, besides just the signups... |

You can flip between "gunsite" and 3rd person view. I liked using both, depending what I was doing. |
