Parabellum, ACONY's free-to-play MMO shooter, is a team-based shooter set in a future New York City, where rival factions vie for key deployment points on a map that looks like it might have been lifted from a Bionic Commando game. It is being developed using Epic's Unreal 3 Engine, and is being billed as one of the first AAA free-to-play games. The game is currently more shooter than MMO, but is still in an early stage of development.
German videogameblog Videospielkultur.de claims that they have an internal source at Acony who told them that the Free 2 Play-Shooter Parabellum will leave it's military setting and move towards a Theatre Game Show setting. They plan to move in the direction of Jack Ass and want to include some freaky moves like jumping and aiming with two pistols. After years of development it's still not clear when the game is going to be released, but it's not the first time the developers are changing the whole game.

Gamesnation: The world of online games has always been divided into two major groups, based on the type of enjoyment offered to players: free or fee. In course of time they were born many hybrids, such as products, but with free access "items" on payment, or those games where the cost of development is covered by advertising within the environment of the game itself.
