    Greetings, Nexonite!
    Nexon's new multiplayer First Person Shooter COMBAT ARMS is officially entering Open Beta, and the game is moving quickly towards Official Launch! If you haven't heard about COMBAT ARMS, then you're missing out on some of the fastest combat action currently on the FPS playing field. Combat Arms features fully customizable characters, weapons, and game modes — choose where and how you want to play, and what you want to take into battle with you. Players have access to a vast arsenal of assault rifles, pistols, grenades, body armor, and more will be added with constant monthly updates, in addition to new maps, new game modes, and new events.

    So if you haven't had a chance to try it out, drop by combatarms.nexon.net, download the Open Beta client, and give it a shot. The Open Beta phase will continue through Official Launch. Barring any serious issues, players will be able to retain their nickname, as well as their rank and stats earned during Open Beta testing.
    For those of you already in Open Beta, keep up the fighting! Once we get feedback from our player base, we anticipate moving very quickly towards Official Launch.

    These new features will also be available on the new website:
    Player Profile — You'll be able to view your stats and your character online - what weapons and gear you're packing, your in-game performance, and achievements you've earned. See how you measure up to your friends and your rivals!
    Player Rankings — Once you reach the Corporal rank, you'll be officially ranked in the COMBAT ARMS Player Ranking system. View your standing versus your peers, on a variety of different benchmarks - Kill/Death Ratio, Most Kills, Most GP, etc.

    hi

    I don't want to restart PlayPod that often. Ten minutes is not enough to evaluate the product.

    Yes I'm too lazy to check it out now, but anyone know the business model on this game once it launches? F2P, P2P, item shop?
    Sounds good, just want to know what I'm getting into ;)

    Quit. Got called a hacker too much because everyone hacks in that game(I don't). Good until you come across hackers.

    It's because the patches come every week now. Before that you got speed hackers/score hackers(Even right now you have some, but they're not stupid enough to get 20K points a game) Why do you think Krytical got wiped? Trust me here Aaddron. I can give you a link to the site where they get what's called the infamous '30 Dollar Hack'. Game may not be infested anymore, but over the summer it was absolutely ridiculous how many hackers there were.

    Lucky you. I don't lie though. I'm not saying the game is bad, it's a great mmofps for free, but they had major hacking problems. And you can't say 5 hackers combined. Over 100 people got banned for stat hacking. I'll PM you link to the page if you want.

    Ok, I know you just sound like you think I am lol. It's different, hackers are there, but not everyone see's them. I know how hackers move and such, so I see more. Most hackers have a common rule "Only use your hack to gain the edge, not ruin the game" so, it's hard to catch them.

    So if they were to get 60 kills in one game would you say they were hacking?

    No. You could get 10 and be hacking. Watch your teamates, twitches and moving to the direct person, and seeing people where you can't see them(Like up on the tower at Snow Valley, seeing through the fog) shows they are a hacker. Scores has nothing to do with it. I can go 30-2 in a game and I don't hack. Btw, if you get good at seeing how people hack(The ways I just showed you) Tell Nexxon and they give you 7.5k GP if you catch a few.

    I know how to spot hackers I've used hacks on offline games for fun and in closed self hosted matches vs. friends on various games I know how they work and we didn't miss any we just don't run into any.

    Most twitches and seeing people were you can't is caused by lag...

    Now I'm done back on topic.
