I've been beta testing FFOW for the past couple of days and this game looks very promising. For those of you who haven't taken a look at it, it is a squad based FPS much like battlefield, but the difference is that instead of being able to capture any control point on the map, you have to capture specific points before moving onto the next ones. In doing this, you are moving the frontline forward. At the same time, you have to fend off the enemy from these points that you've captured or else you'll have to go back and capture them again before moving on. Like I said, its much like Battlefield, with a spin on it. Also, there are more classes to pick from with their own abilities and then you have skill sets to choose from that specialize your soldier. For example, you can be a sniper and beable to control robot droids to remotely knock out the enemy. Or you can pick the airstrike ability and call in airstrikes. Lots of choices to fully customize your character.
All around, the game looks pretty good. I'm pretty sure its uses the UT3 engine, but so far the graphics in the beta are kinda lacking even when I have the settings maxed out. But the game definitely makes up for it in gameplay.
