Frontlines Update Enables 50-Player Online Gameplay

On all maps!



GameGrep

THQ today announced Frontlines: Fuel of War has released a title update enabling all multiplayer maps to support up to 50-player online battles on Xbox Live, the highest player count to date for online console game-play. The epic 50-player warfare features an extensive variety of map sizes, intense ground combat, land vehicles and high powered helicopters and jets, revolutionizing what’s possible for large-scale online console game-play. Along with the increased player count for all available maps, the title update includes several new features based on fan requests that Kaos studios fulfilled. These include a new spawn protection system, as well as expanded voice-over-IP communications, which includes squad to squad chat, proximity, and inter-vehicle communication, for all 50 players.

In addition to the 50-player title update, THQ unveiled plans to release a new multiplayer Conquer Mode, as well as several all-new maps throughout 2008, providing compelling content for the growing online community. The first of these maps, Boneyard, is set to be released on Xbox Live Marketplace early summer 2008. Additional content will focus on new near future weapons, vehicles, and advancing the game’s near-future story premise; pitting the Red Star Alliance and Western Coalition against each other over the world’s dwindling oil supply.


Frontlines: Fuel of War is an infantry- and vehicle-based FPS set against a desperate near-future energy crisis in which the Western Coalition and the Red Star Alliance are battling over the word’s last oil reserves. The intense and cinematic single-player campaign follows the brave soldiers of the Western Coalition Stray Dogs division, as they battle on the frontlines with a huge arsenal of over 60 next-generation vehicles and weapons. The unique frontline combat system focuses the intense combat action on the game’s massive and realistic battlefields, and a flexible infantry role and load-out system allows players to choose how the war is waged -- and won. Frontlines: Fuel of War also features 50-player dedicated servers for the Xbox 360 platform and 64 players for Windows PC, delivering a new level of intense multiplayer combat.

Cash On Demand

Cash On Demand I’ve always been an advocate for cheap and easy...Er...when it comes to gaming, that is. Unfortunately, it’s because of this that I’ve missed out on some of the bigger titles over the past few years. (CoD4, anyone?). Buying used games, ordering online from sites like Amazon or Ebay, is a simple way to avoid high pricing, (at least until you factor in...
