The Afflicted is a 3rd person shooter that pits 3 teams against each other in struggle for resources and power within a crumbling society. The Afflicted was developed from the beginning around the concept of player control. First glances might give the impression of a typical third person shooter, but a few concepts set it apart. It’s a game of cooperative team-building. Players are scored on the collection of resources that allow them to shape the growth of their team. A vital element of success is the creation of structures and barricades that can be placed at the whims of the players. A free-form movement system allows for creative navigation and evasion. The goal is to provide a refined, current-generation shooter that still manages to implement the kinds of choices that bring players back for more.
That looks awesome!
Thanks! We're continually improving things. Glad to see you like where it is so far!
One thing I was just thinking about was the characters. I was thinking maybe you could add a character customization thing to the game, or maybe do something like Counter Strike Source where there multiple characters to choose from.
I agree! That's scheduled for our development. Right now, we're shooting for more of the Counter-Strike system. For the demo, we're probably only going to have one character per team, but we plan on having at least 3 each by the time we go into a full release!
