Oh god it looks awesome.

Game site is here.

And a trailer is here.

Basically a MMO third person shooter that we might enjoy.

I'm still more interested in Darkfall, but this looks nice.

Game is good looking, that's for sure.
I guess it would play a bit like PS, but I wonder how much the 2 games look alike...

[Wedge]

I get the impression it's nothing like PS at all and is more like a TPS on normal size maps, with persistent results from the play on the maps.  Still does look sort of interesting, but I don't think it actually has that scale of combat.

Instanced combat = instanced fail

I dont want a second life waiting room for CS sized servers

From what I've seen it looks like it's one big world.  I don't think it's instanced.

FTA: So in Global Agenda there are a number of different instance types


Yea, unreal 3 engine....good luck making a planetside sized battlefield in that thing, it would likely overflow some polycount that's coded in, and on top of that if you could render a full on 200v200+ PS battle in the Unreal 3 engine, it would make like 95%+ of gaming machines cry in pain and chug like all hell
