  • Summary: Combine fast-paced vehicular combat with high-tech, futuristic weaponry and hundreds of intense skills and you get Auto Assault -- a unique departure from traditional Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games (MMORPGs). Hop in your own customized cars, semis, and motorcycles and prepare to fight the mutated creatures and bandits of Auto Assault's post-apocalyptic world. Battle other players both in arenas and in epic race vs. race wars for control of the regions in a devastated Earth. Auto Assault uses the power of the Havok physics engine to let you make insane jumps, send obstacles flying and even blast bridges, buildings, fences and trees with your car-mounted rockets. Anything you can hit, you can destroy. [NCsoft]… Expand

    Mad Max brought to MMORPG world, finally! Too bad that action-packed fighting is almost the only thing the excellent setting is used for, at least for now. Luckily the action is all good and enjoyable. [Apr 2006]

    It's not quite Mad Max, but it can be fun to hit the open road and blast a few mutants along the way.

    It's picking the wrong fight - taking on MMOs on their own turf, instead of truly daring to be something different. It tries. Often it succeeds. Just not enough to stop the sound of its stalling engine ringing as loud as the gunfire. [June 2006, p.92]

    Phew, this game is amazing. It has everything a serious MMORPG player would want! Great PvP? Check! Multi-layered PvP (areans, free-roaming and more)? Check! An extremely deep crafting system? Check! Tons of customizations? Check! Economy? Check (auction houses are forthcoming)! Housing? Check! Auto Assault includes some revolutionary mechanics as well, including destructible world and random loot (meaning that hardly ever two drops will be the same). In addition, the countless missions are full of lore, and the setting itself is refreshing. I was never attracted to car games, but Auto Assault just grabbed me and wouldn't let me go. It will happen to you as well, if you just give it a try. Highly recommended!… Expand

    There is nothing defining or special in this game that should keep anyone playing it for longer periods. The controls are clumsy, the graphics mediocre and the action repetitive and stale. It is a crime to charge people for something as boring as this on a monthly basis.… Expand

    The game is excellent as a departure, but it is less than addicting and highly repetitive. Content seems stretched over a huge game that leaves large gaps and causes players intrested in feeling something new, whether it be a level, enemy, or area to explore unfullfilled for long periods of time. Also the fee is quite high for a first time entry into the market by an unknown developer with a product of questionable worth. Add to that a plethora of bugs that should of been resolved in the quite long open/semi-open beta and the fact that despite largely lacking instanced maps and missions heavily encourage single player play, the game is a major let down. Perhaps content will be added, or the game itself and its economic model focussed to something more feasible but right now this game is largely a waste of money for what will likely dissapoint most players by the end of their first month playing.… Expand
