Worldshift is new RTS that promises to become a
standard for games to come. Before anyone says it, yes I realize that
you can download this directly from another site. I'm sharing it here
because I'm guessing that you guys don't want to sit and wait in a 45
minute queue to download a game at 25 kbps. Here is the alternative.
This Beta does require a unique product key to play. I've included a
link with the download that will allow you to get your own key in about
2 minutes.

In the 21st
century, shortly after the colonization of our Solar System had begun,
a huge dark object appeared beyond the orbit of Pluto. The object,
called ‘Shard Zero’ by the scientists, possessed some kind of a deadly
aura, spreading mysterious ‘plague’ of cosmic scale around itself,
twisting and disrupting the very nature of space and life. There was no
time for reaction, and all attempts to study the anomaly remained
futile. When we finally realized the object is moving on a collision
course with our planet, it was too late. Shard Zero hit Earth and that
was the end of our civilization.
WorldShift
is set thousands of years later, when our civilization is no more than
a fading myth. The remains of Shard Zero still are spreading its
Plague, twisting and re-shaping Earth and its nature, sometimes in the
course of centuries and sometimes in a matter of hours. Humans
developed a new culture and now live in 5 mega-cities, struggling every
day for the precious resources they need to survive. The rest of Earth
is populated by the Tribes, successors of early humans, that were
affected by the Plague.
WorldShift
is a next-gen cyber-fantasy RTS game designed to be quick and very easy
to learn and play. It offers hectic, fierce encounters all around the
Earth and a fascinating story uncovering ancient secrets about the true
nature of the Shard and the Plague. But also, WorldShift introduces
many features new to the genre, like modifiable factions, unqiue
cooperative multiplayer gameplay, and more.
In
WorldShift, there are no technology trees featuring hundreds of
upgrades; instead, WorldShift allows the players to discover and
acquire a vast number of items and powerful relics that they can use to
freely change their gameplay and preferred tactics and to surprise
their foes. The players will gather items as they fight their opponents
and as rewards for completing missions. But to discover the most
powerful relics, they must form teams with their most trusted friends
and embark on deadly missions where it is difficult to survive and
where the real challenges await.
