Global Agenda PvP Details

[Jan 04, 2010, 11:12 am ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

The Global Agenda Interview on Ten Ton Hammer talks with Todd Harris, executive producer on Global Agenda, focusing on PvP and mission types in Hi-Rez Studios' upcoming espionage-themed MMO shooter. They have a rundown of five mercenary mission types, explaining all maps are 10v10, but a maximum of four players can join a team so there's always the potential to be teamed with new players. Word is there will be no team deathmatch, but that players can play shoot-em-up in the training area and it will possibly come in a future update, and they also discuss plans to bring team-based gameplay in the near future as well. The article also gives some details on how matchmaking will work and discusses how class choice will influence combat.

I believe GA is peer to peer, or am i confusing that with another Persistent FPS (PFPS) thats going to fail-Huxley maybe? really.. 10 vs 10.. really? come the hell on.. I hope to the FSM that blizzards next game is a real MMOFPS as polished as WoW is. There is a beta for pre-orderers starting Jan 7th. GA isn't peer to peer. I wouldn't call GA a MMOFPS either. Its not a new Planetside. Its a FPS with some MMO aspects for subscribers. Doesn't mean that its not a heck of a lot of fun.
