The highly anticipated free-to-play survival MMOFPS based loosely around STALKER 2, Survarium, is crying out for alpha testers to help move the game to the next level. The game has already developed a large following due to its heavy focus on survival and instinct over that of typical twitch shooters, but the developers need the aid of players to help the game progress and become the top quality product they want to release.
The S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games have greatly influenced the Eastern European games that came later. In this, the second of a two-part miniseries exploring these influences, we investigate the gameplay mechanics that make "Stalkerlikes" what they are.
Vostok Games has released some new screenshots, showcasing the new graphics renderer and lighting system that are coming soon to Survarium. Survarium is powered by the new proprietary Vostok Engine and focuses on the aftermath of a massive ecological catastrophe on Earth, the reasons behind which are only vaguely known.
Vostok Games has released a brand new update for its free-to-play online first-person shooter, Survarium. Patch 0.52 introduces a new graphics renderer, minimizes input lag without decreasing frames per second count, improves client performance when playing with a ping above 50ms and enables vertical synchronization in the game lobby.
I'm a STALKER fanatic and have been emailing these guys daily. I'm positive I'll be testing every friggin area!
I've Seen tidbits of Survarium and it maintains the STALKER level of creepy atmospheric detail, great graphics and control.
Some are crying about a SP mode but if think about it STALKER and it's Brilliant A-Life A.I. played like a MMO anyway. I never seen NPC A.I. so smart before that they seemed like other players.
Sure i hope the Story is as good as STALKER but right now I don't mind the MMO aspect cause Survarium still is about:
Scavenging, Trespassing, Adventurers, Loner, Killing, Explorer, Robbers!
Definitely registered for this Alpha!
They are brave enough to let random people apply to be alpha testers in this day and age of every kid has a blog and can ruin your game before it comes out EVEN IF ITS IN ALPHA?
I commend them on their bravery.
Already signed up :D
As much as the idea makes me swoon, Alpha is a long way from fun anyway you look at it XD
I think ile sit this one out so i can get the full unspoiled experience when its much closer to release.
