Has anyone been following the development of this new game? It is a "free" massive multiplayer FPS. I've been following it for the last year and it looks like they are finally doing a public beta.

Checked out a vid. It looks awesome. But Brink fooled me ... so weary.......

It's free but to "power up" will it cost?

Here's the link i watched.. sniper and mines.. rock on!

Yup, this first beta is invite only...second release will be invite only (forum registered) but will include an invite to pass out to a friend.

I think what got everyone was the lack of a demo with Brink...at least Quake Wars had a demo so we all got a chance to run through the game play before barfing up the coin. I'm excited about the stripped down engine which will help some of the older hardware, plus support the massive multiplayer environment....add to that it is free, well it is free to get us all started. This should attract those on the fence with any new game hype.

The game remines me a lot of the Tribes series of games with the jet packs. The cratering feature of the heavies looks sweet.
