Don't jump to high.. because the moon doesn't have good gravity that will leave you, floating a dirft into space.. might be a environment physics in the game. Which i always enjoyed games that you could drop the gravity in deathmatch and float around being a hard target while raining missles into the ground.. it was great fun, but the whole ethic of this game looks to be the realism.. so shooting a missle would probably just leave you.. continuing to ascend from a missle launchers kick back?
Other then game physics the story line makes you wonder... Is it to be a free roam game where you are basically studing rocks, like the mars rovers..? or will there be a sinister plot by some evil alien or corrupted environmental enthusiast that wants to keep human polution on earth?
The details shacknews posted about says a few words that have so much detail.. colonist, and shooter. So you live in a base camp, and something goes wrong and you are trying to fix and get to the bottom of your problems on the moon..
That has a rpg fallout flair to it.. with just being an asumption I stil think this game is worth a gander everyonce and a while because massive co-op, world exploring, asuming roles in games.. has become a very popular genere that every company right now is endeavoring..
Besides I always like astronomy, seeing other planets.. and obliterating everything in sight..
