| Auto Assault (Video Game) | comment |
Auto Assault was a Vehicular Combat MMORPG developed by Net Devil and published by NC Soft for the PC in April of 2006.In 2030, alien craft drop terraformation pods on Earth, unleashing horrific contamination that kills untold millions, but changes a rare few.The Mutants are regarded as a plague and herded into internment camps. Scientists harness some of the technology behind the alien pods, creating Deflector Shields and other devices. In the face of expanding mutant populations and widespread breakdown in law and order, the world's governments combine in order to preserve their power and society, eventually becoming a massive corporate entity called Hestia Corp. They create biomechanical armies, immune to contamination, to combat the growing Mutant threat. The "Biomeks" are effective against the Mutants, now united under a single banner, in the short term, but Hestia ultimately deems them a failure and enacts a final solution. They put a select few scientists, military officials and other VIPs in underground arks and seal themselves underground, while simultaneously unleashing every nuclear, biological and chemical weapon they have on the surface in the hopes of totally sterilizing it.Of course, things didn't go as planned. 800 years later, humanity reemerges from underground exile expecting a parking lot and instead finds a nightmare. The Mutants have survived, as have the Biomeks, who were extremely resentful about being abandoned and nuked. Countless other rogue groups and independent individuals are out there too, as are scattered alien forces and nasty mutated wildlife. Open war breaks out between the three major factions but soon settles into unstable peace broken up by small-scale skirmishes involving super-tough Weaponized cars, trucks, motorcycles, and the occasional tank.Player characters took the role of a freelance operative from one of these three factions, fighting against the other two and the various hostile elements inhabiting the "Central Wasteland", as it was called. As the player progressed through the game and moved closer towards Ground Zero, more of the Back Story was revealed, along with the truth behind the aliens and their arrival on earth.Due to "insufficient numbers of subscribers" (Rumor had it that less than a hundred people were playing at the time), the game shut down in 2007. Attempts by various parties to pick up the slack were denied, as were NetDevil's attempts to buy the rights back from NCSoft. Efforts by some players to revive the game with a private server continue. | |

Limit Break | |
| Auto Assault (Video Game) / int_2afb1a9 | comment |
Limit Break: "Hazard Mode", obtained at level 40. After dishing out or taking a sufficient level of damage, Biomek vehicles could transform into a Humongous Mecha, Mutant vehicles could project a contaminated "Phase Ghost", and Human vehicles could Reverse Polarity on their shields and call down an ion blast on their position. Originally only the Biomeks had a Hazard Mode, but response from testers was so postitive that an equivalent ability was given to the other two factions. | |

A.I. Is a Crapshoot | |
| Auto Assault (Video Game) / int_420c50b7 | comment |
A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Temper NET, a massive security network designed alongside the Biomeks to maintain civil order while the Biomeks combated the Mutant threat militarily. It grew and evolved of its own accord, eventually deciding that the only way to ensure order was to exterminate all organic life. The system assimilates all technology it comes across with Borg-like efficiency. | |

Cybernetics Eat Your Soul: Not everyone is receptive to Biomek augmentations. Some of those that weren't had their minds reject the augmentations, turning them into burnt-out husks the Biomeks called "Derelicts", suitable for only the most rudimentary tasks and largely kept out of the way so they didn't hurt anyone. | |
