War Front: Turning Point Screens
SCREENSHOTS FEATURE posted on 14 APR 2006 by Sean Drummy
CDV unveils some new features and a pack of screenshots to boot.
This week's feature and visual update for CDV's War Front: Turning Point includes details details on the pivotal T-34 tank and the fictional Shield Generator super-unit. War Front: Turning point is currently being developed by Digital Reality to be a WWII/science fiction real time strategy game. With fantasy historical revisionism in mind, War Front poses the question of what would happen if Hitler was assassinated early in the war and the Axis war machine came under the reins of a different leader.
Key features include:
- The first "Science-Fiction/World War II" RTS title that combines resource gathering, army building, base construction and a full-fledged technology tree with an intuitive interface and accessible tactical combat in a style that will delight casual and veteran strategy gamers alike.
- A detailed technology tree allows for a variety of recognized WWII weapons along with special, nation-specific, secret and super weapons such as multi-turreted tanks, jet-pack soldiers, stealth bombers, armored mechs and more.
- Two single-player campaigns portray an epic struggle of good-versus-evil in which Hitler is killed early in the war, taking history and the player in a nail-biting new direction. The story is written by some of Hollywood's brightest screenwriting talent and told through a mixture of immersive cinematic cut scenes and fast-paced, tactical game play.
- An action-packed multiplayer mode allows up to ten players to compete against or cooperate with each other in teams or as individuals playing the Soviets, Germans or Americans. An Internet-based ladder will serve to memorialize the game's top tacticians world-wide.
- Players can control units in a traditional top-down RTS perspective or take direct control and jump into turrets or attach to any combat vehicle for a near-FPS experience.
