Story:
In the future, the world is a changed place. Technology has advanced. Countries have merged into massive geopolitical blocks. But one thing, sadly, remains the same - humanity's appetite for war. When a terrorist attack destroys one of the U.C.S.'s prized orbital elevators, the military is mobilised to eliminate the threat.
Dylan Ramsey, a young engineer, finds himself quickly caught in a swirl of destruction, conspiracies and crumbling alliances. Experience his story in this high-octane third-person shooter.
Choose from dozens of weapons and wanzer parts to customize your unit, and blast your way to victory.
When you think you're ready for a new challenge, join the ranks of online pilots for intense multiplayer battles!
Features:
• Third-Person Shooter Action:
o Fast-paced action awaits as players battle enemies in the concrete mazes of cities, the frozen wastes of the Antarctic and a host of unique locations.
• Customization Options:
o Players can choose from dozens of weapons, shoulder attachments, and wanzer parts to build a war machine that suits their play style.
• Online Multiplayer:
o When done trashing enemies in-game, a whole new world of online play awaits. Players can go it alone or in teams, testing their skills in battle against other players with their own, highly customized wanzers.
Unlike its predecessors, Front Mission Evolved is a third-person shooter instead of a strategy game. The player takes the role of Dylan Ramsey, who is a mech robot technician. When terrorists attack New York, he takes control over one of them to rescue his father. During the course of the game he meets allies which (autonomously) fight on his side in most missions.
In contrast to other mech based games the robots found in this game are agile: they can jump and dodge. The gameplay itself is very straight forward: Walking through linear levels while destroying every opposition. The only exception are on-foot missions in which the player has to infiltrate buildings. Ammo and armor are limited and don't refill themselves, but the player can walk over boxes for refreshments. The E.D.G.E. defense system acts like a regular bullet time mode: it can't be used indefinitely, slows down time and cuts down taken damage.
Between missions the player can buy new weapons or equipment and change the look of the mech.
