Executive Producer Todd Harris sat down with Zam to discuss the futuristic action game before the second beta test kicks off on Aug. 21.

A quick excerpt is below. Read the full interview here: http://www.zam.com/story.html?story=19282

ZAM: Can you give us a walkthrough of a PvE scenario that players might face in Global Agenda? Paint a picture for players that don’t want to be confined to PvP.

Todd: I’ll share an example from our most recent Closed Beta Test. Players assemble a balanced team consisting of an Assault, a Medic, a Robotics, and a Recon.  The 4-man group decides to raid a Research Lab owned by the Commonwealth – an oppressive NPC faction within Global Agenda.  The players must now work together, with very complementary devices and skills, to complete this PvE mission.  They mow thru android Commonwealth guards, they encounter specialists such as the Scanner Bot whose sweeping detection beam must be avoided or additional responders will be alerted.  The team proceeds thru various mini-bosses and finally concludes with an epic Boss battle.  They are managing aggro and working as a team but also jetpacking to gain the advantageous high ground and using cover to avoid enemy projectiles.  Along the way they are getting loot drops and salvaging key components that can later be crafted to create custom character Implants or put on the auction house for credit.  Based on successful mission completion the Assault character earned an achievement that allows him to purchase a more bad-ass looking suit or learn a new taunt emote, or perhaps acquire the gold metallic dye that can be applied to his helmet as a visible boast to others.
