War Inc. to become hybrid first- and third-person shooter

12:30 PM on 03.06.2012

War Inc. to become hybrid first- and third-person shooter photo

Much has changed since we last checked in with War Inc. Battlezone during its beta phase. Officially launching on April 15, this free-to-play third-person shooter is going to let users play using a first-person perspective as well. If that sounds totally crazy, I agree.

Achieving balance has been important to developer Online Warmongers Inc, so we'll see how it all plays out in the long run. Also on the horizon for War Inc. is 3D support (anaglyph and stereoscopic), drivable APCs, clans, and larger maps to handle 64-player battles and vehicles.

To go along with this news, we've got a ridiculous amount of screenshots. If you haven't tried the game since it first went public, it might not be a bad idea to see how it's progressed as these updates roll out in the coming weeks.

Why do people pay for PC games again? Stuff like this , Path of Exile, Firefall, and Tribes: Ascend really make me wonder.

@B-Radicate and they blame piracy for the lack of sales on the pc.

PhilKenSebben

I will definitely check this out.

@B-rad: Can't have everything for free.

I'm pretty that both star wars battle front games let you swtich between 3rd and 1st person, also didnt Mordern Warfare 2 have an entire 3rd person mode?

Live-action Payday series wants to rob you blind

Behold, a teaser trailer for the upcoming Payday live-action web series. The teaser stars Dallas, Hoxton, Wolf, and Chains as they get ready to pull off some heists in Washington D.C. Episode one should be launching in a week or so. Obviously this is all aimed at hyping up Payday 2, which will be out this August in North America for Steam, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3.
