Aeria Games has announced that their free-to-play MMO shooter, Repulse, is now available for download after a rigorous beta testing period.

The MMOFPS features both player-versus-player (PvP) and player-versus-environment (PvE), with nine game modes, including Capture the Flag, Death Match, Alien Invasion, and more. Players can assume the roles of such classes as Sniper, Engineer and Assault.

 
“We’ve upgraded Repulse with four brand new maps to celebrate its commercial launch as an intense, hard-hitting sci-fi shooter. With twitch-based action moves like the Boost Jump, Wall Jump, and Dodge, Repulse sets the standard for brutally futuristic online combat,” said Aeria Games director of publishing Tom Nichols.

The bullet-list of official features includes:

* Special Action Moves – Use the dodge step ability and quick reflexes to avoid incoming enemy fire. Quickly jump in and out of combat with the boost ability. Overcome obstacles with the wall jump or sneak up on your enemies by cloaking. All these features and more are available in the Action Mode channels.
* New Content Added – Four new, exciting maps with multiple gameplay modes have expanded the game since the Closed Beta. Utilize the new teleporters to test your skills in the Memorial and Arena maps but watch out for energy-draining static fields in the Castle map!
* High Ping Kick Safeguard – In order to ensure lag-free gameplay, a second East Coast server will be added (select the server closest to you for the fastest gameplay). In addition, a high ping kick feature has been implemented to automatically remove players who are severely lagging from the game in order to provide a better experience for everyone.
* Customize Your Game – The Repulse web mall features a variety of items to enhance your Repulse experience.

Worth checking out, as long it is not as winky-wanky-woo as "TF2" has become.

This does look interesting, I must admit. I never really played TF. My brother is playing it, and it looks fun, but I'd rather stick to Counter-Strike.
