Ground Branch is what I would deem a Tactical First Person Shooter
Tentative release date: Summer 2013
http://groundbranch.com/
Here is their proof of concept for the game.
TLDW (watch) shiny version
It is a kick starter project, but this is a team of veteran pros who made the games we grew up on. When the game was about having a solid fun game. The graphics may not be battlefield 3, but they are good. More often than not most FPSs released now are a modified version of CoD. Fast kills cheap thrills and kill streaks. You can compare any FPS in the genera that had an older version and see where they took on aspects of Activison's CoD
Something that I liked about the video was where he said "our health doesn't regenerate" this is a great throw back to the older games. Their team worked on Rainbow 6/ rainbow6 rouge spear, and the original Ghost recons. Quite simply those games worked, were balanced and paved the way to making the genera so popular, but along the way they made the games overly accessible thus reducing what made those specific games so great
Anyway here is the Kick starter link

a 15$ donation will secure you a copy of the full game as well as a few things planed for post launch like co op.
This is what the game will be about
Full multiplayer (objective-based TvT, PvP), and core single player/co-operation gameplay (e.g. terrorist hunt against bots) from the start.
Oh and full weapon/ character gear look customization
Hope to see this game next year

Looks good, but would have to have EXCELLENT(America's Army excellent) gameplay for me to play, because there are no unlocks to keep me interested.
I do not always accidentally, but when I do, I accidentally the whole thing.

He just compared it to AA, not CoD.
Since the AA project stagnated 6 or 7 years ago this could be interesting, but we already have the ArmA series.

There's no kill switch on awesome!

They said they were not trying to be ARMA. This should be closer to an updated version of traditional Rainbow 6, with a size more like Ghost recon. Pretty much RS6/GR slammed into a newer version, but with the old principles.SteevoLS wrote:He just compared it to AA, not CoD.

Arma is good for what it is, but it's just so big, and other than DayZ no one really plays it.
