At first I thought MMO cause they said there would be an economy.. but they released more details today:

Where does it say it's an MMO? I only see that it's an online-only game built on the Halo 3 engine.

Be interesting to play it. I wonder if you can still play it outside of Russia, or if it would require a VPN.

I kinda assumed because of the comment on an economy

This might be something I'd try out.. if it came to the US

 

[carnageX]

Meh, I'll pry try it out.

Sounds and looks kinda like PlanetSide 2 though, if they're going with the MMOFPS route...
