World in Conflict:
World In Conflict is a next-gen RTS title developed by Massive Entertainment. It will feature extremely real 3d worlds and great visuals powered by an updated version of the powerful Ground Control 2 engine. Destructible terrain and even going into First Person mode are only a couple of the features that will make this a truly revolutionary title.
World In Conflict will feature a VERY strong multiplayer mode which will feature Massives trade-mark Drop-In mode where players can enter into a match in the heat of battle. Large scale 8v8 battles will also be possible ensuring that the battles will be fast and fierce.
List of features:
Super-Powered Warfare: Unleash the arsenals of the great military superpowers in the gripping single-player story created by Larry Bond.
Bleeding-Edge Graphics – The latest version of Massive’s proprietary Masstech engine allows for a full 360° range of camera control and features advanced lighting and physics effects.
Complete Destructibility – As the battle rages, the world environment pays the price -- every object in the game will crumble under the force of war, including cars, buildings and forests.
Deep Multiplayer Modes: Using Massive’s proprietary Massgate multiplayer server system, World in Conflict will support up to 16 players for head-to-head and team-based battles.
Real World Units: Players will take control of the most devastating arsenal of military weaponry ever created, including Soviet, American and NATO tanks, planes, trucks, troops and helicopters as well as nuclear weapons.
Player Roles – Players will choose to play as Infantry, Armor, Support Forces, or Aerial specialists; multiplayer teams will need to master each role for maximum effectiveness.
The Story:
What would the world look like, if in the 80's some things would have gone wrong? If the Cold War had turned into a worldwide conflict? What if the USA and the Soviet Union had beaten up each other? If peace never existed and the biggest armies and most dangerous weapons the world had ever seen had clashed on each other?
This fictitious story is told in World in Conflict. The Berlin Wall never fell; instead the second superpower of the world, the Soviet Union, decides to attack large parts of North America and strikes out for the final strike against the capitalistic archenemy...
