Crytek免费FPS《战争前线》将于10月21日登陆PC

Crytek日前宣布，自家免费FPS游戏《战争前线》PC版本将会在10月21日上市。上月进行的完整Beta测试已经完成。

《战争前线》相应的Xbox360版本将会在2014年上市，虽然该游戏在Xbox360上也是免费作品，但是玩家必须成为Xbox Live金牌会员才能进行此游戏（每年50美元会费）。

《战争前线》将是Crytek的首款免费游戏。该游戏的PC版由工作室的基辅分部负责，基于CryEngine3开发。

Crytek宣称该游戏设定背景为距今不远的未来世界，游戏将会通过次世代图像、人工智能和物理效果来提供全场动画级的体验。

Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli在去年曾为该游戏的免费特点做辩护。

“我知道很多玩家对于免费游戏都没有什么好印象。”Yerli表示，“这种游戏名声不好。‘掏钱就能赢，质量也不高。’我很明白这一点。但是这次我们做的是高质量的免费游戏。是基于我们CryEngine3开发的。这次绝对是大投资大手笔。”

Zombies Monsters Robots Officially Announced



En Masse Entertainment Announces Action-Packed Third Person Shooter Zombies Monsters Robots

En Masse Entertainment, a player-driven publisher focused on delivering fun and innovative online games, today announced the intense third person shooter, Zombies Monsters Robots (ZMR), for PC. Set in an alternate world where the invention of portal technology has lured cross-dimensional creatures to Earth and humanity finds itself under attack, ZMR pits gamers against a bevy of hostile foes. Players will fight back with guns, guts, and gear for an edge-of-the-seat, take-no-prisoners shooter experience. Currently in development from Yingpei Games, formerly known as Epic Games China, ZMR will launch free-to-play on PC this summer.

“We are excited because ZMR brings a fresh and thrilling experience to PC shooters. Playing the huge variety of co-op missions, facing crazy monsters and boss battles, and the intense PvP is going to keep gamers coming back for more,” said Chris Lee, CEO of En Masse Entertainment. “And in keeping with our philosophy of delivering great games and great service, we can’t wait to let players jump into the awesome action of ZMR, while we will provide our trademark level of player support and a continuous stream of monthly updates.”

Recently shown at this year’s Game Developer’s Conference, ZMR pits players against an unexpected assortment of enemies, environments, and game modes. Gamers will battle monstrous enemies and bosses across a wide range of co-op campaigns and wave-based survival missions as well as fight other players in fierce head-to-head shootouts. Up to eight players can participate in co-op play while competitive modes support up to sixteen players. With a deep arsenal of customizable guns and gear, gamers will need to make every shot count as they enter a war against infectious zombies, abominable monsters, and murderous robots hell-bent on destroying mankind. Dynamic cover, blind fire, dodging, and active reload systems combine for strategic gameplay in which no two missions are alike, traversing locales from lush jungles to gritty industrial districts.

En Masse Entertainment is working closely with Yingpei Games to start alpha testing in April in preparation for a full launch in early summer.

With over 30 million registered player accounts and growing, ZMR has been a huge success in its home market of China, where Yingpei Games released the title under the name Mercenary Ops 2. Headed by industry veterans, Yingpei Games has lent its creative expertise to franchises such as Gears of War, Infinity Blade, and En Masse Entertainment’s own TERA: Rising.

Subnautica First Pre-alpha Screenshots
海底梦世界《Subnautica》先导预览图片公布

　　《Subnautica》是一款水下开放世界冒险游戏，游戏目前还在开发中，制作团队为制作《自然选择2》的游戏工作室Unknown World。在PAX East 2014大会上，《Subnautica》展示了先导预览版图片，主要是让大家领略一下游戏的情景和主题，而之于具体的游戏内容、玩法和发售平台，Unknown World并未透露。今天，Unknown World也在自己的官网上面向公众公开了这组图片，感兴趣的玩家先欣赏一下吧。





Subnautica Revealed

Subnautica is an underwater open world adventure game in development at Unknown Worlds, the creators of Natural Selection 2. Today, we are releasing the first pre-alpha in-game screenshots of this new game! These screenshots coincide with Subnautica being revealed and shown at PAX East 2014 – The first time Subnautica has ever been shown publicly and playable anywhere in the world.

‘Pre-Alpha’ is a way of saying ‘before this game is even vaguely ready to be properly considered a product that could be released.’ These screenshots are taken from a real playthrough of a real playable version of Subnautica, but they are very, very early. The game you see here has only been worked on for a few short months. They do not represent what the final product will look like. They do represent some of the gameplay and visual themes that we hope to express when Subnautica is released. We are very proud, and excited to be showing them to you now!

In the first screenshot, called ‘Safe Shallows’, the player is swimming in a coral reef area rich in life. The fish and rays present react to the player’s presence, some are scared, some are curious. Throughout the coral reef area, resources may be found, shells and caves explored, and fish caught. The water is quite shallow, allowing sunlight to play across the player’s vision. This is where players start in our PAX East 2014 demonstration. While it is very early, and not representative of the final product, this is not a staged screenshot and it is really playable!

Safe Shallows is the in-game realisation of coral reef concept art such as the piece above: Many of the life forms and features that you see in this concept have made it into this early build of Subnautica.

The second screenshot, which we call ‘Sub and Stalkers’, shows off many different gameplay elements. This screenshot is taken deeper down in the world, and less light is reaching the sea floor. Different life forms are present, from unique coral formations to the terrifying and dangerous Stalkers. The player is maneuvering using the Sea Glide, a personal water vehicle with a propeller that is faster than swimming with arms alone. Using the Sea Glide, it is possible to evade the hungry (and quite aggressive!) Stalkers.

Most notably, the player is before a Cyclops – The first submarine to make it into Subnautica. At the lower right of the vessel, above the tail of the right-most Stalker, you can see an open door. This door leads to a hatch, through the player may enter the Cyclops. In this early pre-alpha stage, the Cyclops has an extensive detailed interior, which you can glimpse through the bridge glass. Players can board the Cyclops and pilot it around the world, faster and with more protection from danger than while swimming or using the Sea Glide.

To celebrate Subnautica’s public PAX East 2014 showing, we are going to release another screenshot on each day of the show: Saturday and Sunday. Follow Subnautica on Twitter, Facebook, Google+ and sign up to the mailing list to be the first to see these new screenshots.
