 Okay look, I'm not really experienced in making Games threads but I don't want you guys to miss out on this so here goes: This is Atlas Reactor. Atlas Reactor is a turn-based, team oriented MOBA. Kind of like XCOM 2 meets League of Legends, but so much more. On the surface, the game is really quite simple: you play as a member of one of two teams of four "freelancers," and each team tries to kill the other using various abilities (with cooldowns); first team to get five kills wins. There are three classes of freelancer: frontline, firepower, and support, and I'll just take it on faith that I don't need to explain the basics of what these classes do. The real magic of this game is that on the surface it's really simple, but after playing a game or two and understanding how turns resolve simultaneously, one can see potential for using teamwork and strategy to devastating effect. This video explains it better than I really could. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qAknvq2wZdQ Now I know what you're thinking: "But, uh zip zoom, this game is made by Trion, why would I bother playing a game by those guys?" yeah that's cool. You can get this game on steam no big deal but Trion is having a free weekend June 3-5 but either way here are the links: Trion: https://www.atlasreactorgame.com/en/sign-up/ Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/402570/ Also of relevance is the sub Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/AtlasReactor/ And you might want to check out the discord server, as it's where people find games, teams, organize tournaments, etc.: https://discord.gg/0KC8Z8wyQHjiWofk Seriously this game is not even publicly released but it's already super polished. If you get in on the free weekend, you'll get another free seven days to play after. I'm already addicted and I really would like to play with some more Goons. Oh yeah, before I forget, I wrote a couple articles about the game but it's games journalism so really who cares but I may as well pimp them here because games journalists gotta games journal. https://www.themittani.com/features/impressions-atlas-reactor-closed-beta https://www.themittani.com/news/atlas-reactor-tournament-shape-things-come uh zip zoom fucked around with this message at 21:33 on Sep 2, 2016 |

Geokinesis posted:Looks interesting, how are the characters/abilities? that depends. How do you feel about fish-related puns? Also yes this is definitely a game that requires teamwork and coordination if you want to execute those sick combos (which is why I'm such a fan of Rampart); accordingly, this is why the discord server for the game is pretty active.

Geokinesis posted:Might be worth doing up the OP with explanations of each phase with mini header images, and then maybe quick overview of characters and their moves. Yeah that's something I can do. Give me a few days to move some poo poo from my inbox to my outbox. :happysun:
