Two little bits of news about one of the games that I'm really enjoying right now. The first is that
Auto Assault is going to be
working with Massive Inc to provide stream ads in the game. While I'm not normally a fan of advertising in games this does have the potential to be kind of cool as long as the advertisers are willing to work within the constructs of the game. Give that Auto Assault takes place in a post-apocalyptic future I'm not going to mind the occasional dilapidated soft drink sign or maybe even some advertising on the side of a burned out building but if the ads are shiny and new looking then it's really going to kill the mood for me.
The second bit of news is that
Auto Assault is opening up the beta of the game to anyone and everyone with a PC capable of playing the game. This is your chance to get a free taste of one of the more interesting MMORPG's in the pipeline. More information can be found at the game's official
website. If you're wandering through the Wastelands and see a Human Bounty Hunter named Falconan be sure to say hello.
