 Miner Wars is an underground and space shooter played in a fully destructible environment and is a combination of single player story game and MMO. As a player, you operate an advanced mining ship in an open world asteroid belt area. You dig kilometers of tunnels, harvest the ore, travel the solar system, fight your enemies and discover deep secrets.

Game play is led by an epic story and is a combination of a single/multi-player game, cooperative, or you against everyone.

The story will introduce you to many types of missions: rescue, exploration, revenge, base defense, theft, transportation, stealth, search and destroy, pure harvesting, racing or just flying around and destroying everything you see.

Features

  • Global Scale Destruction - The whole environment in the game is destructible and persistent. You can travel to a forgotten asteroid, mine a tunnel and make it your secret base of operations. You could take an asteroid buster rocket and destroy any large asteroid. You could dig a long tunnel in a huge 8km asteroid and wait until an unsuspecting victim flies into the tunnel and mount an ambush. The possibilities are limitless.
  • 6DOF Combat / FPS in Space - Every ship in the game is fully maneuverable in six directions. This makes the combat extremely dynamic and exciting. FPS veterans will feel at home with our WASD- mouse-and-key setup and Space simulation fans can use their beloved joysticks to maneuver the ship in space. Miner wars is a full PvP/looting friendly environment.
  • Skill-Based Game – Flying and combat will take mainly physical and mental skill. No “grinding” your way to the top doing repetitive missions as there are no levels, only player skill. You can, however, upgrade your ship to have that “edge” in the field.
  • Wide Variety of Ships - A player can acquire the ship that will most suit his needs. There are no restrictions as to which type he chooses but some will be more suited for mining, large battles, exploration / scouting and some for hit and run tactics.
  • Complex Dungeons in Space – Seamless transition between outdoor and indoor areas. Player will be able to enter big asteroid bases and stations full of enemies and loot. Players will also be able to battle each other in these indoor areas and engage in some real intense multi-player battles.
  • Ship Upgrades - Every ship can be upgraded on a space-station with a large variety of weapons, armor plating, engines, radar systems, maneuvering thrusters, mining equipment and many other kinds of upgrades.
  • Mining and Exploration - Any player in the game can choose to lead the life of a miner or explorer. There are almost 50 material types that can be mined from an asteroid and some of them are so rare that they will make you a very rich person should you find them. An explorer can travel around sectors and get a good chunk of money for tips on where to mine.
  • Epic-Sized battles- Our VRAGE engine allows for some really massive battles in space. Up to 300 player ships can be displayed in one sector and engage in a rough battle for resources.
  • Looting – In a world where it's Player vs. Player, our players will have to keep their purses heavy and their combat skills sharpened. Any ship in the game can be looted by another player should it be destroyed. You can either destroy your opponent, (either NPC or Player) and get much lesser loot or you can disable your opponent and steal some of his equipment and resources. In the heat of the battle some of the equipment or resources will get destroyed.
  • Factions - There will be around 30 factions in the game. All of the factions will have a different approach on reaching their goals (explorers, army, miners, fanatics, etc.) and some of them will be aiming only at strict piracy. Or you may choose to go it alone and form a freelance crew
  • Combination of Single and Multi-Player Elements - Is the mission you're on too tough for you? With just a quick chat you can hire a friend to help you on your quest for the truth!

Miner Wars 2081 PRE-ALPHA review

By KJTD posted 8th October 2011

Fantastic concept, the pre-alpha is extremely limited, but the ideas behind this game are fantastic. It has an insanely huge world and the developers have a lot of big plans for it, if they deliver it'll be a revolutionary game also combining it with the MMO like expansion that it'll get it might turn this into the most creative flight simulator.

Miner Wars 2081 PRE-ALPHA review

By atreyuevr posted 18th August 2011

Despite being in the pre-alpha stage, this game is CRAZY in many respects. For one, it has a GREAT concept idea that has nearly endless possibilities, something that I have been looking for and only find in this (and Minecraft). I love the ideas going on here, and solely on that basis of judgement, I would urge everyone to buy this title now. I can't wait to see the final product of this project, but sadly I feel that we won't be seeing that for a long time, given that we all want to see perfection from this, which is already is, conceptually.

Still in alpha but my hopes for this alpha game are good.

By the time it is all in place we will have our self a new sim/spaceship/crafting game ?

Hopefully it will be something that is able too replace X-universe.

Gameplay.

Yes drilling and more drilling and harvesting.

Those are the current game play elements right now and testing.

But the game gets quite an update now and then untill its done and for this price I am glad I bought it.

Miner Wars 2081 PRE-ALPHA review

By CounterAgent posted 10th November 2010

Even though this game is still in developement, it is already quite impressive and the potential is incredible. I am not a big MMO fan and so I wasn't really sure if this would be for me since it looks like it is a single-player with MMO integrated. That is only half-right (as of right now, since it is still in developement I guess that could change) The game actually has the options to play single-player, MMO, or sandbox mode with the options to build your own area. You are totally free to fly around space and destroy / mine any astroids you can find. Like I said, the potential is incredible. I would definately encourage you to try it if you like open-world space flight games or space MMO as this is sure to be a hit.
