MMO Week 2: Savage 2


It's an MMO-FPS-RPG-Hack n' Slash-RTS combination. Basically, its a match round game, in which Humans, and Beasts duke it out. It's really quite fun.

Graphics: 8 (+1 for a unique look)
The graphics are decent. Really, the interesting thing is the style is tries to present. For example, the humans are very Viking-ey, snashed with steampunk. It works really well. You will find yourself running along axemen, wielding a mini gun.

Interface: 8
Everything you need is right on screen. Partially because you don't need much.

Gameplay: 8.5
Like FPS games? Play a marksman, or a gun wielding savage. Like a Hack N' Slash? Just pull out the knives/axe. Like RTS? Play as the commander. It's a very easy to enjoy game, and it does it brilliantly. I haven't even mentioned the beast classes. It's fun as hell, and a lot more entertaining than most FPS MMOs on the market.

Community: 8
Ok. Now for the amazing part. This game is headset compatible... and...
There isn't a single 5 year old swearing on it. That's right. I didn't hear the word "Newb" once.The only annoying thing I heard was people complaining that the Barracks wasn't being built. (We had a bad Commander)

XP Grind: N/A
There are levels, and stats. However they do not stay with you, and for that reason I have not given it a rating. Its quite awesome to see your progression in just one game however.

Pros:
Wide gameplay, Fast Paced, Action oriented, fun
Cons:
It's not a game for the long run. It's a HERE AND NOW.

Final Score: 8
This is also staying on my computer.
