Firefall, the Beta.

Good game, but still needs a lot of work. The Recon class (which should be my favorite), is currently really borked, and plays as more of a demolitions expert than the Sniper it's presented as.

The objectives are fun, community is great, and gameplay is solid.

Downsides: The game is extremely unstructured. Sandboxes are fun, but there isn't enough structure to this one to make things engaging. It's currently just an exp/cash grind, without much else driving it.


This game and world has a ton of potential, and I really want to see where it goes. If they can firm it up and build on it, it'll wind up awesome. If not... Well, it will still show what an MMO can do outside the box. I could easily see this being adapted into, say, Mass Effect Online to great success.

And apparently I have a few invites to give out, if anyone is interested (though invites go out in waves, so it might just give you invite priority over the open sign-ups, I'm not sure).
