Players may choose to sculpt a base of operations inside of an inconspicuous asteroid, complete with traps an hidden rooms, or perhaps blast through tons of rock & debris in search of precious metals & valuable materials
- which can then be sold later for upgrades, ship customization & items. Take part in missions battling enemies who stray into your territory, or lay siege to the opposition in their own sector of space. Specialize in warfare, exploration, or harvesting, & tally your loot as you plunder fallen vessels, slowly building an empire & expanding your means, until youre an infamous one-man army NOT TO BE F--trifled with. Key
Features: Global Scale Destruction
- The entire game environment is destructible & persistent. You could dig a long tunnel in a huge 8km asteroid & wait for an unsuspecting victim to enter, then mount an ambush with your harvesting drill. Or you could save up supplies for a long time & grab some munitions for your asteroid buster rocket, capable of destroying ANY large asteroid which may house a dangerous asteroid stalker or gutless camper. Miner Wars 2081 is an action game based around stratagem & creative tactics. Use your cunning, & pick your battles wisely. Six Axes Combat / FPS in Space
- Every ship in the game is fully maneuverable in six directions or axes. This makes the combat extremely dynamic & exciting. FPS veterans will feel at home with our WASD mouse-&-key setup, & for space simulation fans, your beloved joysticks can be used to their best advantage. Skill-Based Game
- Miner Wars is not about “grinding” your way to the top, it is not about repeating mundane tasks or quests; there is no leveling, only player skill, choice & mental agility factor in. Wide Variety of Ships
- A player can acquire the ship that will most suit his or her needs. There are no restrictions as to which type they choose, but each is advantageous for certain niche aspects of the game, for example: mining purposes, large battles, exploration/scouting, & some for guerrilla-style tactics. Ships can also be upgraded & ameliorated to provide that added edge. Complex Dungeons in Space – Seamless transition between outdoor & indoor areas. The player will be able to enter big asteroid bases & space stations full of enemies
- & enemies mean loot. Players will also be able to battle each other in these indoor areas & engage in some truly intense multiplayer battles. Ship Upgrades
- Every ship can be upgraded with a large variety of accoutrement: armour plating, engines, radar systems, maneuvering thrusters, mining equipment & myriad others on offer. Mining & Exploration
- All players can choose to lead the life of a miner or explorer. There are around 50 compounds, elements & materials that can be mined from an asteroid. Some of them extremely rare & valuable. An explorer can travel around sectors & earn a good bit of coin by giving tips to other players as where best to mine. Epic Scale Battles
- Our VRAGE engine allows for massive & chaotic space battles. Up to 300 player ships can be displayed in one sector, engaging in a viscous torrent for resources & territory. Looting – In Player vs. Player, youll have to be careful what you carry & keep your combat skills sharpened. ANY ship in the game can be looted by another player, should it be destroyed. You can either destroy your opponent
- either NPC or Player
- & receive a smaller salvage. Alternatively, you can temporarily disable your opponent & steal a larger proportion of their equipment & resources. Factions
- There will be around 30 factions in the game. Each faction will have different approaches with regard to reaching their many goals, e.g. explorers, army & militia groups, miners, fanatics, pirates & privateers, etc., or you may choose to form your own ad-hoc crew. Artifacts
- Artifacts are ornaments or machine fragments found scattered throughout the Galaxy. Artifacts can only be found by blind chance, there is no existing radar system for locating them. Some have been found at the end of hidden tunnels & trails, others are buried within the depths of rock & debris. The origin & purpose of these artifacts are yet unknown
- any information on the matter is purely speculation. Combination of Single & Multi-Player Elements
- Is this mission too difficult? Died a bajillion times & lost too much loot? With just a quick chat you can hire a friend to help you on your quest!
