Star Conflict - The Invasion mode and sandbox exploration
Star Conflict offers a lot of intense space action.
I don´t know if it would be a good way to describe StarGem Inc. and Gaijin Entertainment’s F2P MMO action game "Star Conflict", as the space/sandbox version of "World of tanks". But that was the first thing that came to my mind when i watched the "Invasion" trailer.
And if you liked that trailer. Then i´ve got some more good news for you. Because Star Conflict has just Introduced the Invasion mode, and the sandbox exploration abilities for the players in the closed beta. So that means that all those features should soon be available for everyone else.
You can however still play Star Conflict as of today!
Press release:
"StarGem Inc. and Gaijin Entertainment’s epic free-to-play MMO action game, Star Conflict, gets an exciting update with the new “Invasion Mode”, which is in Closed Beta until the end of summer. In order to access this new mode, Star Conflict players will need to earn one of the following achievements: Strikeforce Prometheus or Universe Conqueror.
Invasion mode has an underlying story in which an alien race disappeared into another dimension of space and time, now they have found a way back but this time they are heading up an invasion. Star Conflict players will be able to team up in parties of four to explore the new ‘Open Space’ area and combine forces as they take on new quests and engage in PvP and PvE battles. These new activities provide new loot, which can also be used to craft unique armament options and protection for their spaceships.
“The inclusion of Invasion Mode into the virtual world of Star Conflict provides a unique and unpredictable game dynamic that introduces more variables to the player’s space combat experience. Not only do players have to worry about PVP attacks in the free to explore environment but alien ships can suddenly appear close to player’s own ship without warning, forcing them to make the lightning quick decision to flee or fight” Said Stanislav Skorb, Director, Star Gem Inc.
Skillful Star Conflict Players can access the new invasion mode if they have already acquired the Universe Conqueror or Strikeforce Prometheus achievements. Those players who have just joined the game have a full summer to gain the 1000 points required in order to get the Universe Conqueror achievement. Alternatively players looking for quick access can also obtain the Strikeforce Prometheus achievement by purchasing 6000 Galactic Standards separately or in different packs.
Obtaining the Strikeforce Prometheus achievement will be much easier over the next few days. In honor of the launch of “Invasion Mode”, Star Conflict packs and ingame currency will be discounted up to 75% through its online shop (http://star-conflict.com/en/store/) and Steam until the end of the month."
