Features
- CHILLING AND BELIEVABLE STORYLINE - Storyline and game universe created in
close cooperation with Dale Brown, 15 times NY Times best-selling author and
expert on US military, global conflict and future military technology.
- EMOTIONAL ATTACHMENT - Zoom down to street level on the urban battlefields
of San Francisco, Washington DC, London and Moscow; all highly detailed,
realistic, and fully destructible. With a game-play where success is partly
determined by your ability to medevac your own wounded soldiers and take
enemies prisoner (rather than killing them), contemporary/near-future combat
comes to life in a very modern way.
- MILITARY AUTHENTICITY - First RTS to combine a reality universe with
simple, elegant game play. Using highly detailed representations of existing
and experimental military technology, all to scale, Act of War offers an
authentic battle experience without the authentic complexity.
- Strong focus on exceptional production values (audio, cinematics, story,
technology)
- Full 3D with ability to zoom in to see the action up-front for full
immersion into the action.
- Level of detail in character animations and textures only seen in FPS
games to date.
- Extensive multiplayer options and single-player skirmish mode for infinite
replayability.
