Face of Mankind Open Beta pwn

Face of Mankind Support Email:

Dear Community,

The time has come. Face of Mankind is finally being released in its Open Beta phase, and we warmly invite you to join us today! The official opening date is 5th December, 2009. The game may not yet be perfectly balanced, nor with all the features our Closed Beta testers would have liked to see, but we will perhaps never reach a state of perfection without widespread testing with an unrestricted playerbase that we hope you, as a valued Open Beta Tester can be part of. As such, this release of Face of Mankind’s Open Beta is simply a matter of necessity for us to reach newer and greater heights.

There will be a wipe of most things from this final phase of Closed Beta, but we have decided to keep the faction leader structures in place to facilitate a smoother transition, and to ensure that players, both new and old, will have some semblance of organization to get them settled into the world of Face of Mankind.

We are also including a comprehensive tutorial in the latest installer package for your perusal. Face of Mankind has gone through many transformational changes in myriad aspects of the game, ranging from combat, to the final battle mechanics, and various new features, just to name a few. Even if you are a veteran player who was with us during the previous incarnations of Face of Mankind before we reopened this new version of Face of Mankind, you will very likely feel like a proverbial duck out of water. Hence, we highly recommend that you take a look at this tutorial to get you up to speed on Face of Mankind, regardless of whether you are a veteran or completely new to the community.

To get started, these are the links for the download of the game client, the official Face of Mankind forums where you can start to interact with the rest of our community, as well as other important documents that you may wish to read while your download is in progress.

On behalf of Duplex Systems, neXeon Technologies, and all of the Face of Mankind staff, I hereby welcome you to join us in Face of Mankind for our final stage of testing before we go live. Please, immerse yourself in the diverse and expansive worlds Face of Mankind has to offer, the intricacies of the politics between the factions and the player government, and above all, we hope you enjoy yourself in Face of Mankind!

i played this back in 2005-06. god it was one of the greatest games. i was in EC, our leader was awesome, we would get on teamspeak and would all group up and defend/attack/mine together. When we came into an area we would instantly line up and fill up a whole area and people would stare at us and take screenshots lol we were like an army it was great i miss it so much im gonna install this now

I downloaded it, ran like arse on my laptop and gfx were pretty poor. What is this game anyway?

Dontar · January 24, 2010, 8:45pm

a community driven fps/rpg

the economy is fully driven by the community.

roleplay is key.

mostly, people just deathmatch all the time.
