Augmented Reality Defense And First Shooter Games

By Jason Cole


When it comes to war games, virtual reality is now taking on themes which relate to past world events. For example, Front Defense is an augmented reality defense game based on, and puts players in the middle of, World War II. As such, it is important that those planning on playing this game understand that is more graphic and violent than most.

During the initial stages of the game, the invasion involving Normandy is over and firefights have just started in a fictional European town. At which point, Front Defense puts the player, an Allied Forces hero in the middle of the action to fight off ongoing attacks. While it is a minor battle at first, the action intensifies over the course of the game.

VR allows for some of the most realistic scenes, style and scope than other games in the same category. While this is the case, the weaponry is massive including man-mounted guns, grenades, assault rifles and others. For, when it came to battles during World War II, these and other weapons were essential in overtaking the enemy.

The developers and designers clearly have knowledge as to the history associated with the war. For, the game reflects the sense of actually being an active member of a military unit during that time. In order to achieve this goal, the designers used battlefield and room scaling to create a number of scenes which are close in comparison to various areas in which these battles took place.

Front Defense is often reported to be one of the most intense, active and realistic games available. For, the intensity and experience of the WWII shooter is the first to use precision tracking and room scaling. As a result, the player has the power to create positions which are more strategic and highlighted when enemy forces take over a European town. While the game is based in actual events, some scenes may be different in architectural style than during World War II.

Being able to use a variety of weapons creates a situation in which the player must act on both knowledge and instinct. For, the player can choose to use armored cars, dive bombers and tanks in an effort to defeat opposing forces. Most players actually find the finale to be one of the most dramatic of any previous first shooter war games. In fact, many suggest that the finale is nothing less than climatic in comparison.

While these games have often been controversial, especially by the conservative far religious right, there is no proof that playing such games results in violent behavior of players later in life. In fact, if anything, the games can be a good method of stress relief to help avoid individuals becoming stressed to the point of road rage, or other such incidents. At the same time, it is important to note that the game does include graphically violent scenes of war and to monitor and supervise players under the age of 16.

Front Defense is Windows based starting with Windows release 7 and subsequent releases. It is important to note that the game is not compatible with any release up and until Windows 7. When it comes to graphics, the game has a NVIDIA graphics interface with 12GM RAM, thus providing some of the most colorful, detailed and dramatic scenes in the VR first shooter market.
