Description
Features:
- Open World Guerrilla Warfare You decide who, when, where and how to battle. Utilize guerrilla tactics, improvised weaponry, and modified vehicles to lead insurgent attacks on EDF targets. Launch attacks based on your own gameplay style, take on missions in any order you choose, or engage in destructive activities to weaken the EDFs grip on Mars.
- Strategic Destruction Use destruction to your tactical advantage, setting ambushes or chain reaction explosions to attack enemy strongholds and permanently modify the game environment. Leverage fully-dynamic physics-based destruction to improvise on the fly: blow holes in a wall or floor to set an ambush or escape, take out a staircase to stop your pursuers, or drive vehicles through blown out walls.
- Evolving & Emergent Gameplay Carve your path through an ever changing landscape as you improvise your combat tactics mixing gameplay styles, vehicles, weapons and explosives to defeat the EDF.
- Epic Sci-Fi Setting Explore the huge, unforgiving Martian landscape, from the desolate mining outpost of Parker to the gleaming EDF capital city of Eos; then tear through the fully destructible open-world environments swarming with EDF forces, Red Faction resistance fighters, and the downtrodden settlers caught in the cross-fire.
- Multiplayer Combat There is no place to hide when you put your guerrilla warfare skills to the test in a variety of highly destructive multiplayer combat modes.

OVERLOOKED GEM OF THE YEAR!! is all I can really say about this game. At first I was not sure, it didn’t particularly look very pretty (Mars terrain all looks the same), the story wasn’t really told too well, with things happening that didn’t make much sense, but once I got into it, I found that something was happening to me, something I hadn’t felt in a long time. I was having FUN, this game let's you do stuff I have NEVER seen in another game.
Let me paint a quick picture, I need to rescue 2 mine workers, they are being kept inside a well defended fortress, I ready my jetpack, I fly up to the 4rth floor, I blow a hole in the wall with my Nano-forge rifle (pretty much melts anything), I fly in, shoot the floor out from underneath 3 heavily armed guards, they fall down to the level below, I run up the stairs, free the workers, I make another easy to escape hole in the wall, I fly out, I place 15 thermal bombs around the place, I hop in my getaway tank that I stole from the guards, I flip the lever, and I TOTALY DESTROY the whole building, I flattened it, bad guys still inside.
This game features the Geo-Mod engine, that means, you can pretty much destroy ANYTHING, you can topple buildings, destroy bridges, you name it, you can do it. NOTHING beats shooting a hole in a bridge and then seeing the tank chasing you, fall to his doom. At this asking price, RECOMMENDED!
