new EA game free :D : General Discussion

ya theres a new game made by EA and it appears to be free! Im instaling it right now

heres the story....

The Gods have disappeared and the old sun has died, letting a vile twilight engulf the world of Nyn. In exchange for all treasures the mortals possessed, the evil giants agreed to forge a new sun and hurl it into the sky.

But the deal was betrayed, the treasure stolen and now the mortals flee the wrath of the giants. Under the light of a new sun the mortals stumble into a world changed and twisted by an age of twilight. The long journey home has become a conquest of survival.

You are a Skylord. Once a mortal hero, you long ago gained immortality and became a counsellor to the Gods. For generations you have lived with them in their majestic fortress floating in the skies over the magical world of Nyn.

The fortress of the Gods was named the Forge of Creation for it grants the ability to bring the world's legends to life; use this ability to help guide the fates of the mortals on the surface below.

Conjure up wonders of old, bring about storms and wildfires or wonderful blessings and mystical healings. At your word, legendary creatures spring to life, heroes, monstrosities, dragons and spirits are shaped of pure elemental power to do your bidding. Monumental structures and mighty fortresses of old rise from the earth wherever you desire.

Until now the Gods held you back, centuries passed while the Forge slumbered. But now, the Gods have gone and you are needed. In this Age of Twilight, it is time for the Skylords to seize the power of the Forge. Some will use it to help the mortals of Nyn, others to do battle among themselves. The Forge of Creation has become the BattleForge.

Give a review on it. Im curious if we need to make a new section.

What happens when you mix together real-time strategy gameplay with collectible card game sensibilities? BattleForge happens.

Developed by EA's Phenomic, BattleForge is an intriguing mix of real-time strategy and collectible card game on a massively multiplayer online level. Where a standard real-time strategy game has units with various powers and abilities, BattleForge has a set of 200 cards, from which players can build their own customized army. After selecting a mix of cards from from four elemental spheres - fire, frost, shadow, and nature - players take to the field, completing single player and co-operative missions or simply battling it out between themselves. Need more cards? EA is more than happy to oblige, with booster packs available for purchase via the game's online store using real-world cash.

It's certainly an interesting concept, but what about the execution? Is BattleForge just a waste of money that could otherwise be spent on real tiny paper cards, or should you totally tap that?


So far i am realy enjoying this game great graphix, very fun to play, i like the card game thing in it and overal i realy like it.. i give it a solid 4.5/5

GOOD GAME I RECOMMEND IT!

it is good, i have played it since release and i got ALL cards in BattleForge

So its like playing magic the gathering online?

ya kinda...

I would love it if someone could write a 'complete dipshits' guide to playing Magic et al. I've been trying for years, but I just don't 'get' it. I don't even understand the SOE LoN game

Maybe warmax11 and/or madjammu could do a write up on this new game so that old gits like me could understand.
