Cultivate the Skills to Make the
Kills!
Skills Development is the Key to
Domination in the Combat Zones of CrimeCraft
Winning in CrimeCraft takes more
than guts and guns. In CrimeCraft, player success comes from being prepared and
choosing a specific set of skills, then developing those skills to the point
where mastery turns you into an unstoppable force of destruction.
There are approximately 40 different
skills your character can specialize in. Each of these skills can be combined in
thousands of combinations as you advance your character from starting newcomer
to gang kingpin. CrimeCraft takes the character advancement of an RPG and blends
it into the explosive action of a shooter.
The skills of CrimeCraft are
classified as two types, Active (i.e. special attacks utilized in combat) and
Passive (i.e. character buffs activated by equipping them). Within those types,
there are three disciplines of skill to cultivate:
Weapons: Access specialized weapons
and improve all weapons damage through the cultivation of numerous skills such
as Rocket Launcher and Sniper Rifle training skills. Build up your ability to
wield a weapon and improve the damage you’re laying out with the Incendiary or
Cluster Rocket rounds.
Explosives: Get more ‘bang for your
buck’ by specializing in the creation and detonation of specific explosive
devices like Sonic Grenades or Proximity Mines. Train yourself in the right
skill become an expert in Fire Control Techniques, Charge Compression and
Demolitions.
Survival: Be a heavy hitter by
boosting your resistance to damage by equipping Liquid Armor or Blast Helmet.
Take a more covert role in your gang by cultivating Stealth and Ambush tactic
skills as you take out your rivals. Enhance what you take into combat by
developing the skills you need to get the upper hand.
To illustrate how these varied
skills work to build a variety of hard to kill combatants, Vogster has released
these latest assets showcasing a just a few examples of the types of gang member
you can craft!
The highly anticipated CrimeCraft is
rated ‘M’ for Mature and is slated to ship for PC in North America on August 25,
2009.
