RAKION (now with screenshots)

[Marc Summers]

It's kinda like Gunz, but it's mostly close combat since using long range weapons can be dangerous if you don't know what you're doing. You have to spend a half to a whole second switching between long range and short range weapons, so most of the characters made for close combat stay that way.

There isn't really a plot, but the gameplay was kinda fun. It is "just fighting", but there's a lot of strategy involved in team play, especially Golem Mode which is like capture the flag. Most strategies involved creating diversions and baiting the enemy, or sometimes I'd just have my teammates go melee while I hung back and shot semi-tracking fireballs with my mage.

Btw it was a closed beta, It'll open up either this month or next month...they don't have a date yet :/
