Act Of Aggression (PC) Showing Off Some Cartel Gameplay, Can You Feel The C&C Bleeding Through?

Are you ready for tech trees, crazy psychopathic factions and base building? Maybe you’re more of a cash hoarder, building up a crazy amount of resources hoping to win with a giant super-weapon buyout? Act of Aggression seems to want to be the 2015 game that makes those rose tinted glasses you have on for RTS games of yore a reality. It’s no secret that game is heavily inspired by Command & Conquer, which is awesome. Just look at all that sweet, sweet near future military RTS action, it’s just like you pictured it in your mind back in 1995 except now it’s a reality. There’s been a decent amount of patches leading up to release which we love but sadly the only way to get a taste of the game is to pre-order and check out the beta. Since this isn’t exactly an Early Access title it means no official Steam reviews but the comments and review blurbs on the page are pushing positive but remember to always read/watch the full reviews and make up your own mind.

Be sure to check out the trailer and also take a peek at screenshots below as Act of Aggression is no slouch in the graphics department, showing you the beautiful chaos that is war. Act of Aggression hits PC September 2nd 2015 on Steam for $44.99 but during the pre-purchase phase you’ll save 15% and get access to the Skirmish/Multiplayer beta.

PRESS RELEASE

Act of Aggression’s Cartel faction released in Steam pre-order Beta alongside new trailer for Gamescom!


Content update also includes increased Zoom out, new maps, and other improvements!

Eugen Systems’ pre-order beta on Steam for techno-thriller RTS Act of Aggression has been taking the internet by storm, with players enjoying before release the Chimera and US Army factions in the game. Now, a new faction is in town and rearing to get into the fight: The Cartel, a Private Military Company sporting the world’s most elusive prototypical technology, showcased in today’s new video!

Big consumers of Aluminum (one of the games primary resources), the Cartel’s base is a mineral hungry power-house, but their units are not, relying on raw cash to expand their military operations. Sleek, black, prototypical units and infantry will make up the bulk of your army, able to cloak themselves as you research through the Private Military (its legal front), and Block Ops tech trees.

Today’s content update also includes an increased zoom-out function, following the players’ feedback. Zoom-out 30-40% further and see more of the battlefield, alongside a dedicated button for satellite view, so you’ll miss none of the action in Act of Aggression’s latest exciting patch. Pre-order now to jump right in before the September 2nd release on Steam!

Along with the Cartel, players will also now get access to three new maps, a 1v1 and two 2v2 maps with the new free-for-all game-mode, pitting the US Army, Chimera, and Cartel against each other! And remember, where diplomacy fails,nuclear war prevails!
