_{Introspected are all the smaller, nonviewed threads.}

The first project for Kaos Studios (a division of THQ founded by veterans of Trauma Studios, creators of Desert Combat and Battlefield 2 R&D projects), Frontlines: Fuel of War uses the advanced Unreal 3 engine for futuristic, intense fights in an open-world battlefield. In this all-too-bleak future of constant wars over natural resources, two sides compete for global supremacy: the Western Coalition (the United States and the European Union) and the Red Star Alliance (Russian/People's Republic of China). The game's nonlinear single-player campaign has players advancing their side's frontline into enemy territory.

Key Features

Over 60 vehicles and weapons, including guided drones, guncams, and Anti-missile countermeasures.
RPG-style gameplay, being able to choose technical skills, as well as weapons.
Realtime squad play
Almost fully destructible environment
DirectX 10
Big maps. Really, big maps.

Sounds like a better version of 2142. EA, time to panic.

Why not play both? Thats my plan!!! I never thought a game could replace the BF series for me but these two games just might, until Spore comes out. Then no one will ever hear from me again!!

I tend to get bored with games easily. If I play Quake Wars when it comes out, I'll probably be bored with it by the time Fuel of War comes out (late 2007 I heard), so I'll probably be buying and playing both of them.
