We are proud to announce the first "real" release of "Offworld: fall of mars". It has been in development since mid February. We have released a couple of demos and betas before, but this time we have gathered enough feedback and game play experience to allow us to release a stable and playable version.
The mod takes place around 200 years in the future when man has finally left its cradle and set about colonizing Mars and mining the surrounding asteroids for much needed resources. An ambitious effort to terraform Mars has failed for unknown reasons. The resulting chaos forced the Mars based government to flee back to Earth leaving the colonist leaderless and Mars in the hands of those with enough power to maintain order. The struggle between mining corporations, the remaining remnants of the colonial military and the engineers behind the partial terraforming of the red planet is where we find ourselves.
Feature list:
- Massive 4 square km maps featuring authentic Martian terrain
- 3 unique factions comprising 3 air units and 2 ground units each
- One of a kind hover craft like flight characteristics
- Fast paced neck breaking battles
- Air vehicles with multiple player positions
- Spawn in vehicle game dynamics eliminate noob tubing, dolphin diving, prone spamming and TKing for vehicles.
- Realistic damage values requiring brains and skill to succeed.
- Unique weapon systems for fresh game play. MGs, AA, Missile systems
- All maps have 3 or less primary Capture Points helping to focus battles and keep them intense.
