Default free-2-play web strategy game beta -- Secondearth: Faction Wars





http://www.secondearthfactionwars.com



It is an all PVP game, where you build up / train / equip an army and send it to pillage your foes. It is currently in open beta right now, and is accepting players.

It is completely free to play.

Basically, it's a text-based browser game. It's all PVP. You get some citizens everyday, you can put them to work as: Miner, Soldier, Guard. You can equip your army with different weapons and armor. You can also supplement your main army with Hellpigs( they are not equippable, and are worth a set att/def value) they are cheap but die easily in combat. You also have a set of skills that you can upgrade, these will either upgrade your attack/defense, upgrade the amount of citizens you get on a daily basis, etc.

x-fire web game detection is set up.

There is also a referral - reward system, where you can get free in-game cash and citizens for referring your friends to play.

It's a great time-waster. You can get online and play for about 10-15 mins, about twice daily and keep up with the rest of the players.

A whole bunch of updates have just been added to the game. There is a auction house, new troop types, a recovery ward (to save your soldiers injured in battle), participation points (you earn free in-game items for particiating in the fourms, etc.) Multiple battle strategies, etc.

The game is growing by the minute. Come cement your place.

Another major update has just been added allowing you to send out explorers to the wilderness and see what you can find. There is a chance that they will come back with weapons, armor, resources, or even a rare artifact that will help your abilities in battle.

Maybe text games dont need screenshots, what they do need is something to set their core gameplay apart from other text games.

Tried it, pretty much a dead game no more than 2 people on at one time. It is fun though as you get 500 attack points to start with but to get anywhere in this game it is essential to use the item mall.

Pay $10 for this game and level fast or just login every few weeks. Let me explain: you get 4 attack points an hour as a normal player, 10 as a "gold member". The majority of players on the front page are gold members so thats 250% faster than you. Essentially it is a subscription game.

Lololoollll why would anyne subscribe to a TEXT game, when I could easily go and subscribe to a MUCH better game, like Eve Online? It only costs 15 bucks a month, so why would I play a TEXT game, without any GRAPHICS, or any real content, when I could do the same with the same amount of $ and get something 128312731263123x better than this garbage?

thats my point, it costs as much as a normal subscription mmo so completely worthless. with a max of 2-3 people online it hardly compares to thousands.

Actually, if you notice, only about 5 people in the top 20 are members or have bought from the cash shop. The subscription is $5 for 3 months of service, so it's not that unreasonable. Also, it is a completely free to play game, as all of the 'cash shop' items can also be found and earned in game.

I don't know when some of these people were on, but there are an average of 200 players logging in every day (we're still in beta, and very new).

I mean no offense, but some of the comments by tamethebea are a bit misleading.

Come and give it a try and see for yourself. There is a bunch of great pvp strategy action going on all the time.

3 months is $10 i didn't say $10 a month, $5 is only bronze and the top players have gold. For the activity of the game i think that it is indeed unreasonable. Usually games reward players for voting of even clicking on ads so there are alternatives than making membership with such huge advantages.

Wonder why there aren't many people online? As soon as you hit level 8 you will be raped so i would rather spend my $10 somewhere else. I don't see how strategy will work against players that can attack you 50 times a day and have 5bn attack power compared to your tiny amount of defence.
