Warface bizarrely lets players be NotTerminators on Mars now
The face of war is always changing, and Warface's latest face is skull-faced androids fighting faceless robot drones on Mars, because why not? Perhaps My.Games have gotten their free-to-play shooter confused with Warframe? Either way, I'm always down for a little robot-on-robot laserfight action. The new update adds a new co-op mission set on the red planet, remote robot bodies to inhabit, zappy laser rifles…

Crytek's hilariously-named free-to-play FPS Warface is taking off, its development team splintering up to set up their own independent studio and taking the game with them. Blackwood Games is their name, and continuing Warface is their game. Crytek say it'll be better for the game to be independent, and that this will also let Crytek focus on other plans. Updates already announced for Warface are…

Crytek's name might not command quite the same respect as it did during the height of the Crysis series, but their free-to-play FPS Warface has maintained a steady (and slowly growing) player-base over the past year, in large part due to a steady influx of fresh content. While the previous update to the game was a predictable me-too Battle Royale mode, the latest addition is…
Everyone’s trying to get some of that Plunkbat money, with Warface, Crytek’s free-to-play shooter, being the latest game to add a battle royale mode. It’s live now as part of the November update. Unlike Battlegrounds or H1Z1, however, the smaller scale of Warface means that it’s not quite as much of a messy free-for-all, what with only 16 players competing for the top spot.
Crytek's free-to-play face-shooter Warface [official site] is off to the city of Pripyat within the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone later this year. Is Warface (WARFACE WARFACE WARFACE etc.) any good? Dunno. Am I keen to see this? Oh yes. I always enjoy video games travelling to that spooky abandoned land, from Call of Duty 4's stealthy visit to the joys of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.. Video game tourism is…

In June this year, rumours began to circulate that developer and publisher Crytek were in trouble. Anonymous sources told Kotaku and GameStar [article behind paywall] stories of wages being late, staff going two months without pay, and a lack of communication from the company's management. Crytek initially denied everything. Then last week Crytek made staff redundant at their Austin office, and sold their UK office…

The saga of WARFACE, the free-to-play shooter from Crytek that RPS has treated with all the respect we could muster, is finally coming to some sort of conclusion. It is out. It is live. Everyone in North America, Europe and Turkey can sign into their social netwrok thing GFACE (really) and play on the game's co-op or multiplayer maps for nothing. I'm impressed that they…
Just think: two million years of evolution got us to this point, give or take one divine intervention. Hundreds of billions of humans have lived and died to get the world to the state it's in now. We've sent men, women, dogs and monkeys into space. Mapped the globe. Put the internet and all of human knowledge into every pocket. Landed on the moon. Made…
Warface. Here's your first look at a new trailer for Crytek's free to play FPS WARFACE, which has a presumably extremely warfaced narrator talk very sternly about the importance of choice and opposites. Warface. What he means is that there are two sides in WARFACE, and perhaps you'd like to play as one or the other of them. Warface. Our Craig recently described WARFACE as…
Feature: new guns, fabulous armour bling
"War. Face. WARFACE. War? FACE! Warrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr faceceeeeeeeeeee!". The University of Bielefeld's articulatory phonetics department has me hooked me up to their consonant stretching apparatus. The Cawood Minnesota cheek holder made it sound rounder, while the Roser Koenig* mouth gag made me drool it out in wet clods. I said it over and over for a full hour. At one point only dogs could hear me,…

Here at RPS, we like to have a little fun every once in a while, but it's time for real talk: Warface is no laughing matter. It afflicts several billion people per day, and chronic Warface has stumped even the techno-magic of modern medicine for years. Recently, it took Alec from us. Now he just sits in a corner all day, banging his head against…
Feature: Wherefore Warface?
If you climb to the top of Mt Videogameland, you'll see that Crysis 3 is just over the thoroughly tessellated, HDR-lit horizon. That, however, is hardly the only thing that's got Crytek's tear-powered mega-lair whirring along at maximum efficiency. There's also Homefront 2, Warface, Ryse, an entire F2P social platform, piracy concerns, and a brand new Crysis - which is totally not Crysis 4, but…
In the future, nothing will cost anything. Ever. Well, except when it costs something. Which will be sometimes, but not always. Or ever, unless you want it to. Those are the sorts of wonderful logical fallacies somewhat - shall we say - misleading phrases like "free-to-play" conjure up, but there's no denying the business model's effectiveness. Even so, there are plenty of kinks to work out, which…
Warrin' faces in the WARFACE I faced the war and the WARFACE I needed war 'cause I had face I warred the face and the WARFACE
Warface is, apparently, the future. Crytek boss-captain Cervat Yerli has said that once Crytek's current projects - Crysis 3, Homefront 2, and some Kinect game - are done, then they'll be off to a world where they make downloadable AAA shooters that cost zero bucks to play. Talking to Videogamer he explained: “Right now we are in the transitional phase of our company, transitioning from…
Warface, Warface Warface Warface. Warface? War...face. Warface Warface Warface. Warface! Warface, War, Face, War, Face. Warface. Warface. WARFACE. Warface:
Feature: Staring Into The Face Of War
Is it unfashionable to be cynical about free-to-play these days?* I'm a bit of a stick in the mud when it comes to this stuff. I don't like the idea that game design, balance and content are all elements of a game that can and should be fiddled with depending on how many little chunks of money a player throws at the developer. I also…
WARFACE, I mean. But also: this CGI trailer - which signals the beta sign-ups commencing - is all a bit Battlefield 3 until the mech turns up. Wait- what? See below.
Blimey, it's been a while since we saw anything of Warface. The last time we posted about Crytek's free-to-play online shooter was in December 2010 when they released some footage. In fact, it's been so long that some sites have only just noticed it exists. What has instead happened is Crytek have added three new screenshots to their site, although goodness knows when, and as…

WARFACE! There is now a video, brought to us through the strange pipes of the internet. It shows Crytek's shooter, currently designed and destined for Asian free-to-play markets, in glorious (slightly grainy) action. No news on a Western release yet, but my money says it will happen eventually. Anyway, to footage! Men are there. Shot are they. Go look! Via VG247.
