The Final Front is a team-based first-person shooter that places less emphasis on individual skill and focuses more on your ability to devise, communicate, and execute strategies against your opponents. Choose from one of three unique hover vehicles and collaborate with your teammates to find the best strategy to annihilate the other team while building up your bases and commanding space-faring StarForts.Â
15 Diverse Locations to ConquerÂ
You will experience a galaxy that has been plunged into total war, where you can see firsthand the desolation caused by this war and inflict destruction of your own on many of the environments you fight over. Travel to diverse settings and tactically place your base structures, keeping in mind the unique characteristics of each location. In some cases, you will even be able to deform the landscape yourself.
Environmental Destruction
Battle on worlds where you can cause massive craters in the landscape of a verdant plain, blast holes in the sides of buildings in a dense city, or create a trench system in thick magma, among other possibilities.Â
Inflict lasting destruction on your enemies' vehicles, their structures, and many other objects found in the game. With no health bars visible the magnitude of the destruction is your best indicator of the damage another player or structure has taken.
Base Construction
Your imagination and your ability to collaborate with your team are your only limitations in constructing the types of bases needed to carry out your strategies. You could create strictly defensive setups to guard against a weak front while buying your forces time to siege the enemy. You could build up a bulwark of orbital strike guns to prevent the movement of the other team's StarForts. You could make a quick forward base that could provide a literal "jumping off point" for invasion. Or, you could construct something completely unexpected for the situation, among an endless number of possibilities. The choice is yours.
Collaborative Strategy
It's not enough to simply have a great idea. You also have to be able to explain it to others and convince them of its merits. While this is true in general, it's emphasized in The Final Front. The actions of the powerful StarForts stationed in orbit above you are determined based on democracy. The members of your team can choose to vote on any action they feel would be best and that action will be carried out after a few minutes. Whether that action is dropping the cargo boxes containing structures needed for an important base, scrambling drone fighters to harry the other team's StarForts, or strategically nuking the other team from orbit.
3 Unique Player Vehicles
You command one of three armored hover vehicles with advantages and disadvantages depending on what situation your team finds themselves in.
Control the battlefield with the mid-range Hoplite, which can fire a hefty cannon shell long distances, or perform a vertical boost to rapidly engage an enemy position or reposition itself with an advantage.
With the Arbalest Missile Launcher, you can perform a long-distance siege of a base, or protect your assets from certain types of explosive weaponry using its flak shotgun.
Lastly, the Hussar Stealth Vehicle can sneak past enemy lines with its invisibility to do damage to vulnerable rear bases or lodge some Nano-Bolts into enemy vehicles, giving your team vision of their movement.
