Extroforge takes players to a strange and mysterious alien world, where they must work with their teammates to make a new home for the human race. The alien world is both beautiful and ruthless. There are sweltering jungles to the south, and a frozen ice land in the north. Using only minimal technology, players assemble their command post, begin securing resources, and then use those resources to establish a home base. Utilizing a modular structure building mechanic, players use various building materials to construct whatever they can imagine. Towers, walls, buildings, bridges, and more. The core of this game is a first person shooter that innovates in a number of different ways. This game is also a realtime strategy game, massive online battle arena, and a sandbox construction game.
While in zoom mode you pick a seemingly weak point on the structure and activate a fire mission request. Once activated, you will see a rotating target reticule projected on the surface of whatever you are attempting to “paint”. It will spin faster and faster until it gets a ‘lock’ and then will turn green (and stop spinning). That means that the request has been sent, and rounds will be en-route to the target area.
