About the Game

Shattered Horizon is the highly anticipated first game from Futuremark Games Studio that immerses you in the cold reality of combat in space like no other game before.

This multiplayer first-person shooter is played entirely in zero gravity. A catastrophic explosion on the Moon has filled near-Earth space with billions of tons of rocky debris. You and your friends will join intense 32 player battles to control hollowed-out asteroids, huge fragments of Moon rock and the ruined remains of the International Space Station.

With simple and intuitive controls, you have complete freedom of movement in the distinctive zero gravity environments. Not only can you use your rocket pack to fly anywhere but you can also land on any surface to attack your enemies from unexpected angles.

Shattered Horizon challenges you to take your FPS skills to the next level adapting what you have learned on the battlefield to create new tactics in a fully three dimensional battle space. With your rifle at the ready you can handle anything the enemy can throw at you. But if you let go of your gun, chances are you’re already dead.

As good as the game looks, their fanbase is going be tiny if Win7 is a requirement. If they were smart they would've designed for XP too instead of alienating 90% of PC users.

i dont think they care and tbh i'd rather the smaller community it has, than 1.6 douchbag land.

90% eh? their primary market is steam.

gamers shouldnt still be running XP imo. than again I'm not a hardcore gamer but still, modernize a bit here people.

no winXP is going to kill majority of their sales
you might think having a small fan base is nice but ultimately less sales = less support for the game.

i've had it since it came out, yeah the concept is cool, you need a crazy computer to run it at max.

ummm, it gets a bit old fast cuz there's only really... one thing u do.

it takes a bit to get used to, it's so fucking disorienting, sometimes you guys can fly right past each other in a fire fight, then you're both unable to locate one another again LOL, everyone's looking in the wrong directions. it's so funny.

So this is an endless firefight between different factions? Like Battlefield? Also can you use any other weapon beside that gun?
