Earthrise News - Dev Journal & Screens: The Blasted Area

Posted by Dana Massey on Oct 02, 2009  | 4 comments in our forums

We get the profile of another area of the upcoming sci-fi MMO from Masthead Studios. This week, they look at The Blasted Area and include new screenshots.

When the reborn humanity explored their new home, they found the ruins of one of the last cities to be occupied, but gave it no more thought than to note that its surroundings were now inhabited by viscous mutants – much like everywhere else on Enterra. Continoma soon set in motion their plan for terraforming the island, but during the extermination of the flora and fauna in the southern parts of the island the Backlash occurred. The exterminators found themselves in the worst possible scenario facing a mutant stampede and were forced to use all the tools at their disposal to trigger total chemical devastation on the region. The destruction had little strategic impact on the Backlash, but the landscape in the region is now composed of scorched black hills and ravines and came to be called The Blasted Area.

Read it all here.

That's a pretty strong statement. I think it's more realistic to say that it will provide a quality game to a fraction (perhaps a large one eventually) of the population.

As to this dev journal, it's the coolest one yet. I can't wait to check this zone out.

Wow, this game is looking fun.  I'll most definitely have to play it a while after my spring upgrades.  I'd love to be there when the Hatchery starts to surge forward and can't be ignored any longer.
