Auto Assault vehicular MMORPG - first looks

May 11th 2006 | Gaming

Combining fast-paced vehicular combat with high-tech, futuristic weaponry Auto Assault is a unique departure from traditional Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games (MMORPGs):

Many people have a hard time not laughing when thinking of AA, simply because a car style MMO doesn’t make any sense. Let’s take a quick look at NC Soft’s track record though. First they released an RTS style MMO called Lineage which, to say took off, would be an understatement. Then came Lineage 2 which continued in the series footsteps. Combined, both games had more players subscribed at one point, to blow away any other MMO on the market. That’s thanks to the Korean players, though. Then came City of Heroes, which was a super hero MMO. At first, even I thought that was a crazy idea, but it turned out to be a winner also.

I can honestly say that, at first, I also thought the idea of an MMO with vehicles was odd, but it has somewhat grown on me. After playing for the first few nights, I quickly realized the potential of the game. Since the year 2000, I have played or beta tested over 50 MMOs, so I have definitely seen my share. Auto Assault is one of the few games that actually grabbed me in and made me want to continue playing. I literally sat down to play one evening for a few hours, and quickly realized that a full 8 hours had past.
