Mercenary Wars

Character Stat System laid bare.

Redwood City, Calif.-September 16, 2009 - Uforia, an online game publisher specializing in massively multiplayer online games, today revealed the full details of the Character Stat System for its upcoming Online Military FPS, Mercenary Wars. With a large number of characters and almost unlimited customization, players can look forward to highly unique characters to play from finely tuned snipers to fast and furious run and gunners and everything in between. For more information and to register for updates, visit the game's teaser website at: http://mercenarywars.uforia.com.

Mercenary Wars features a large number of characters that the player can customize. For each new character that a player earns in-game they can allocate a set amount of points into different stats to give them different strengths. For example, there are stats to increase a character's skill with SMGs, Rifles, and Sniper Rifles. A player can also increase its character's walking speed, grenade-throwing abilities, defense increases and much more.

Although a player must select just one of its characters to start a battle with, they may switch between them during re-spawn time. If a player's selected character specializes in SMGs and speed, they can switch to their sniper specialist while re-spawning, thus allowing an added depth of strategy and the ability to adapt to what is going on on the battlefield.

Unlike other first person shooter games available today, Mercenary Wars features a unique stat system that players can use to upgrade and customize their lifelike characters. The combat in the game is designed to feel very realistic, while also allowing players to adjust their speed, accuracy, and health stats. Mercenary Wars is set in the not so distant future in a world where order and society as we know them are a thing of the past. The economies of the world have crashed and have been replaced with total chaos. New alliances have been forged and the world is now controlled by well-trained groups of mercenaries. Players must determine who to swear their allegiance to and fight side-by-side to the death, if necessary, in the quest to ensure becoming the new global powerhouse.

Mercenary Wars will also feature an innovative Artificial Intelligence system where computer controlled "bots" can be used in several ways ranging from practice to enhancing game play. Via four difficulty modes, players can select their desired skill level no matter what their previous FPS experience might be. Other features include multiple gameplay modes, a variety of character types and races, extensive ranking system including more than 50 different character ranks and title, an expansive number of weapons and equipment available for character customization and a built-in player-to-player audio communication tool for enhanced real-world combat simulation.
