Because there is a possiblity we will be getting a private server hosted by either me, dave, or someone else of the MMORPG/FPS Face of Mankind.
It seems fitting to fill you in on the game.
Ok, basically. Imagine 8 Factions, each with different aims, goals and such.
these are:
Guardians of Mankind: The peacekeeping force of the game, to be honest, useless, pointless faction unless of course your a hippy...
Mercieneries of the Blood: Rouge military who'll do anything for their next paycheck, assasinations, bodguarding, you name it, for a price, of course.
Brotherhood of the Shadows: this games' criminal faction, drug trafficing, syndicates, the real criminals.
Law Enforcement Department: the thin blue line of the law, they can arrest people with the ' I ' button when they are stunned, putting them away for some time.
Freedom Defence Corps: 1, 2, 3, 4, FoM-Marine corps! a.k.a. the military lol.
EuroCore:
a faceless corporation with only one goal: PROFIT.
Colonization and Mining Guild:
The first colonists to colonize mankinds farthest reaching colony's, used to be governemnt owned but now has turned into a private corporation.
Vortex Inc. : The company that has produced such ground-breaking technologies as Vortex gates, Orbit-energy weapons. also a greedy corporation!
K, you've picked your faction, designed your avatar, and your in the game, now what?
Ok 2 Main gameplay elements:
FPS - You can just whip out a firearm and start blasting (and killing) anyone you see! of course LED deploy these anti-firearm turrets and have laws against this, but essientally this game has elements of FPS.
RP - Roleplaying, a key selling point is a rank-based player-controlled game... each faction has ranks 1-7.
Rank 7 - Faction Leader
The leader of their faction, whether its the Vortex Inc. CEO or the Law enforcement Departments' Commissioner they are the highest and the unquestioned leader.
Rank 6 - Faction High Command
from the Freedom defence corps Commodore's to the EuroCore senior managment these are the main descion making group. usually their are four "HC (high command" so they can vote on important things.
Rank 5 - Faction Officer The link usually between high command and the rank and file of the faction, the "co-ordinaters" and such also they usually are more commonly out in the field leading their faction.
Rank 4 - Faction Juniour Officer Most likely the most common "officer" in the field, these guys are numerous, skilled and the main leadership roles out in the field.
Rank 3 - Faction Seniors The rank2's who are more skilled in the game and usually arel earning how to move up to a more leader-ship role.
Rank 2 - Faction Members The rank and file of the faction, numerous and everywhere. loL
Rank 1 - Faction n00bs People who are newbz to their faction, not many people stay rank 1 for more than a week.
Face of Mankind works in a "Rank 5 can promote anyone below them to rank 4, Rank 6 can promote anyone below them to rank 5" and such and such, only rank5+ can promote. and the the maxiumum of one rank below them.
This game can be lots of fun when played right, the main problem/fuck-up the developers made was:
They chose some real dick-head ass-lickers to be the leaders, promoting a culture of "Oh SIR you own (kk promote me k?)" which suxxed.
but with the (hopefull) MPGH-FACE OF MANKIND we will erase these mistakes and hopefully alll have a g00d time
P.s. the client is actually available free from their site so... no need 2 warez the client
