So. yeah. it's a thing still.

After reading about the features in this game, it sounds a lot like planetside 2. which isn't a bad thing. 4 factions fighting over 1 planet - with a 5th faction (Nids) basically as boarder patrol.

Also after reading the features - I'm only partially convinced that this is doable. One of things that really struck me was the cross-platform play. With PC/Xbox One/PS4. I don't know if everyone knows how that works, but lets just say that's a TALL order. The issue isn't PC to console either. it's Console to Console. Microsoft vs Sony. There have been other games that have attempted to build that bridge before. it hasn't worked out too well.

Anyhow - It's also listed as "F2P" currently - like planetside. They are claiming to have battles for 1000 players at once. like planetside. you can sign up for the beta as well which is scheduled for late 2014.

I am cautiously optimistic about this game. I would have been more excited about a Space Marine 2 game to be honest ( I still play that game's campaign from time to time). I enjoyed Planetside 2 quite a bit. But i don't like the social aspect of MMO's. Too many bad memories. Anyhow, check out the feature list and judge for yourself:
