You're invited to the Global Agenda Alpha



Today you have a very rare opportunity on your hands. All members of the tactical gamer community are invited to the Global Agenda Alpha.
Video:http://www.youtube.com/v/9cat_7bfzzs

and a description of the game taken from their website at www.globalagendagame.com

GLOBAL AGENDA is a fast-paced action MMO using Unreal® Engine 3 set in Earth's near future, a spy-fi world of advanced technology and player-driven conflict.

In the wake of severe global disaster, the political face of 22nd century earth has changed and player-created factions scheme against each other for power. Traditional full-scale wars a thing of the past, factions must rely on covert agencies, teams of elite special operatives able to seize and defend key facilities. The future of humanity is their battleground, where knowledge is power, technology is a race, and everyone has an agenda.

The players control the world of Global Agenda, forging alliances with their peers and executing lightning strikes against their enemies. They determine which factions to aid and which to oppose, while the only thing that stands in their way is other agencies.

* Develop your agent - Create, extensively customize, and improve your agent character over the course of your career, complimenting your FPS skills with RPG-style progression and high-tech gear.

* Advance your agency - Join a player-created agency, compete in technology races for advanced equipment, and capture critical locations to increase your influence in the world.

* Compete in fast-paced PvP combat - Work with your allies to gather reconnaissance data, then raid or capture enemy-controlled facilities during objective-based missions. Equip yourself from a powerful array of weapons, armor, and strategic devices like triggered explosives, deployable turrets, stealth suits, holographic decoys, and remote control robots.

* Experience a dynamic, player-driven world - Agency leaders navigate through a global conflict of other player-run groups, striving to reach their goals first. Territory, resources, technology, and influence are all valuable commodities, with agencies engaging in politics,intrigue, and outright deception to control them.

Minimum requirements
Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista
High Bandwidth internet connectivity (DSL or Cable)
2.0+ GHZ Single Core Processor (2.4+ Ghz Dual Core Processor or greater recommended)
1 GBytes of System RAM
NVIDIA 6200+ or ATI Radeon 9600+ Video Card
30 GB of Free Hard Drive Space

Please post here to sign up for the alpha and ill do my best to get you in.

Re: Your invited to the Global Agenda Alpha

Woah, this looks seriously awesome, but I don't hit the system requirements.

Could easily see TG doing this - fast-paced and teamwork-oriented, with battles for ultimate control...Lots of potential, but it's easy to see where a load of bugs and unbalance might materialise.

Re: Your invited to the Global Agenda Alpha

The futuristic FPS combat has me thinking of Planetside. I wonder how well that game is doing these days.

In any case, I might look at this game later on...not too interested myself in playing an alpha release.

Yeah it does seem to have a lot of potential. Unfortunately, anything with classes there will be balance issues, I mean look at WoW many aspects are still unbalanced there. But I believe that they'll work out most of em by public release.

Re: Your invited to the Global Agenda Alpha

Hey iamaword, just FYI, the requirements seem to have been changed since you posted this. On the registration page it has these:

Quote:
Recommended System Requirements
Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista (SP1 preferred)
2.4+ GHZ Dual Core Processor
3 GBytes of System RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 8800GT+ or ATI x1950PRO+ Video Card
35 GB of Free Hard Drive Space
High bandwidth internet connection (DSL, Cable)

Minimum System Requirements
Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista SP1
2.4+ GHZ Single Core Processor
2 GByte of System RAM
NVIDIA 7800GT+ or ATI Radeon 9800 SE 256-bit Video Card
35 GB of Free Hard Drive Space
High bandwidth internet connection (DSL, Cable)
I'd sign up, but I don't quite meet the minimum requirements on their forum. If it weren't for the 2GB RAM minimum I'd be okay. Too bad, this is the only MMO that has ever really interested me. Anyway, if they do for some reason let people into the Alpha with only 1GB of RAM let me know and I'll be all over this.

Before anyone says something about buying more RAM because it's so cheap, I intend to buy a new motherboard/CPU/RAM in a month or two so I'm not putting anymore into this one. Unfortunately my planned upgrades probably won't be soon enough to get me into the alpha.

Re: Your invited to the Global Agenda Alpha

I signed up as well (as sprickm) and this is probably the most exciting game to come out since Planetside (for me). Looking forward to buying it!
