Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Firefall was an MMO Third-Person Shooter made by Red 5 Studios. It featured jetpacks, The End of the World as We Know It, aliens that came from a sentient radiation storm, and cartoony Cel Shading.The main premise of the story was this: 20 Minutes into the Future, a massive asteroid impact, the titular "Firefall" occurs. The world shatters, continents are rearranged, and countries are broken and fragmented. But this impact brought Crystite, a blue crystaline mineral that can be used to power just about anything. For example, the Arclight: A massive capital spacecraft that would have been the first ship capable of traversing Hyperspace... except that its reactor overloaded and the ship crashed into Fortaleza, Brazil, unleashing a giant storm called The Melding which starts to cover the Earth leaving only New Eden, a piece of land in Brazil that survives only because the Arclight's reactor is still functional and somehow repelling the Melding.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })From out of the Melding came a new species calling themselves the Chosen. They seek to eradicate the human race and Take Over the World.The game was touted to be in an open persistent world in which "hundreds" of players can play together and try to defend themselves from the Melding. This depends largely on whether everyone shows up for one of the regular world events, which they usually do.Firefall was officially released for everyone on July 29th, 2014 and shut down for good on July 7th, 2017. The game has received many patches, some of which introduced total overhauls to various parts of the game, so some tropes are applicable only to certain previous version of the game and may have since been removed.The main website can be found in here. A mobile version was said to be in the works but is rotting in Vaporware as of 2020.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Has a finished tie-in comic, Affinity, written by Orson Scott Card and his daughter.Has a characters page. Not to be confused with the soft rock band of the same name. | |

| Firefall (Video Game) / int_116a941b | comment |
Applied Phlebotinum: Crystite, a substance first brought to earth by the Firefall event. Its used largely for super-powered generators, and these days everything runs off it. It also is a form of currency. New lore indicates that actual pure crystite is rare. Most crystite is flawed in some way and mixed with other elements. | |

Gatling Good: The vanilla Dreadnaught has a giant Minigun ("Heavy Machine Gun"). The offensive dreadnaught Rhino has a Hitscan Laser HMG. The defensive dreadnaught Mammoth has a Plasma HMG with projectiles falling-off after some distance. Some of the Engineer's turrets have these (standard turrets upgrade from semi-automatic to raging twin firearms). Beg for mercy if you're at the business end(s) of an HKM turret - two miniguns twice the size of a Dreadnaught's on a turret that's twice as large as the user. | |

Cel Shading | |
| Firefall (Video Game) / int_14931ba5 | comment |
Cel Shading: Reminisent of Borderlands, though they were developed separately. The devs have said that they were already leaning towards cell shading even before Borderlands came out. One version of the story even has a collective groan from everyone in the studio as the new design for Borderlands was shown. | |

| Firefall (Video Game) / int_1bf4aeb3 | comment |
The Merch: invokedA more literal example. The Merch, or Merchai is a free unlockable pet you could get by doing the crystite challenge. True to the comic, it will turn into the Flesh Reaper if not fed crystite. And it shares the exact same type of "insight" as in the comic. | |

Spiritual Successor: An odd case. An in-development game, EM-8ER (Prounounced "Ember"), is promised by former Red 5 head Mark Kern to be the game he originally envisioned Firefall becoming before he was removed. There was enough bad blood involved that for a time, the EM-8ER team actually honored Firefall pre-orders. | |

Limit Break | |
| Firefall (Video Game) / int_2afb1a9 | comment |
Limit Break: HKM abilities. They can only be activated after dealing a consecutive amount of damage, and involve summoning a weapon/force of mass destruction onto the battlefield. Many of the limit breaks involve arcfolding, and some are just really powerful copies of other techniques. Dreadnaught: Taunts enemies and gives you damage resistance before letting out a major blast. Previously summoned a powerful mortar cannon. Assault: Emits a powerful force wave that travels forward in the direction you were facing. Biotech: Slows down nearby enemies and buffs you and your allies to gain health back when you damage enemies. Formerly, could summon a chemical sprayer that kills enemies but heals other players. Engineer: Summons a giant turret that can be manned by any player (can make noobs REALLY useful). Recon: Summons a missile strike. (It works underground, may be due to arkfolding) Rhino: A Foe-Tossing Charge, dealing high damage. Previously surrounded the player in a dome. The more enemies were inside, the more damage the Rhino would cause. Mammoth: Emits a "Dreadfield" that damages enemies and reduces their damage output. previously caused a violent tremors around the user, periodically damaging anything nearby. Arsenal: Launches a large number of high explosive missiles at whatever the user is aiming at. Tigerclaw: Supercharges your frame, granting unlimted jet energy, increased movement speed and faster ability cooldowns for the duration, as well as amping up the effects of your other abilities. Previously summoned a small dome that causes damage to enemies inside. If they left it, it caused a ton of damage for their trouble. Firecat: Lobs a massive firebomb that sets fire to a large swathe of terrain. Dragonfly: Creates an energy dome that heals other players. Recluse: Surrounds the user in a deadly cloud of poison that quickly kills anything nearby. Bastion: Makes all of your deployables invulnerable and makes them hit harder for a while to boot, but they'll blow up after the duration. Electron: Launches a huge stormcloud that gets larger and does more damage the farther it travels. Nighthawk: Causes slain enemies to explode, causing AoE damage, for a short while. Previously it simply gave you explosive rounds. Raptor: Not only makes the player's gun fire significantly faster, it also causes every shot to cause an energy explosion. Previously, it caused your shots to shoot arcs of electricity towards nearby foes. | |

| Firefall (Video Game) / int_38c98481 | comment |
Ranged Emergency Weapon: Optionally equipped secondary weapon (possible types: assault rifle, burst rifle, smg, grenade launcher, shotgun) can be switched to from the signature weapon. In "Live" versions of the game, secondary weapons have unlimited pool of ammo, though they need to be reloaded. Before "Live", not having a secondary weapon freed more mass and power limits for perhaps equipping better (and more demanding) gear in other slots. | |

Non-Lethal K.O. | |
| Firefall (Video Game) / int_41d128e4 | comment |
Non-Lethal K.O.: Friendly players can simply interact with downed players to revive them, and some abilities make this REALLY easy. Bleeding out is possible. Dying to additional damage (like getting eaten alive by wargrims or toxic grenades) is possible. Some opponents can be executed (not that you get to see many opponents with instanced PvP having been Put on a Bus) and will come back alive. And some V.I.P. enemies will be captured alive thanks to your battleframe's non-lethal weapon settings - even if you shot them in the head with a nuclear-powered sniper rifle. | |

Drop the Hammer | |
| Firefall (Video Game) / int_465966a3 | comment |
Drop the Hammer: The "Scanhammer" is a giant sledgehammer that players can slam onto the ground to find resources and minerals. It can also be used as a melee weapon in a pinch, and until a dedicated melee button was added was the only means of doing so. Lampshaded by the game in the intro quest "Drop the Hammer" which introduces the scanhammer. One of the Male Assault voices also shouts this on occasion when activating the Meteor Strike ability. | |

One Nation Under Copyright: Sort of. Omnidyne controls the technology, controls most of the crystite, and, therefore, controls the governments. This is hinted not to be a bad thing; Omnidyne influence was implied to be the only thing stopping the various superpowers from going at each others' throats. Again. At least, until the Melding. And even then they retain most of their power as seen in the "Dreadnaught" trailer. | |

Elemental Weapon: Several signature weapons come standard with an elemental damage type, and others, including secondaries, can randomly have one, or a different one if they have one normally. The Firecat's Phason Thrower and Rhino's Thermal Lance inflict fire damage, or "thermal". All of the Biotech primaries deal toxic damage. A significant number of primary weapons do energy damage: that of the stock Assault, the Raptor, all the Engineers, Nonstandard types include ice and melding. | |

Mirroring Factions | |
| Firefall (Video Game) / int_4f6cf75 | comment |
Mirroring Factions: One of the major themes of the game. At first, it seems like the Chosen are a Blue-and-Orange Morality invasion force from another dimension. But as you slaughter their ranks you'll notice that they act exactly like the human enemies of the game, with slight references to player insults. They even have their own civil wars in the middle of an invasion, just like the Accord and gangs do. On the human side, lots of villains call out the player character for being just as bloodthirsty and violent as they are, which is usually an accurate description for a casual gamer: the Somalian look-alikes are trying to survive while the Accord starves humanity's remaining lower-class citizens (the ones you did quests for in Copa), Black Hills gang members consist of former mercenaries who stopped fighting for the good of humanity and started fighting for exp, money, and fun (much like the player), and the poachers will call out the player on all the death and suffering they've caused other beings while fighting to protect a few dumb animals (and sometimes, the player will kill innocent animals in their downtime for fair game). | |

Gang Up on the Human | |
| Firefall (Video Game) / int_5ade9ace | comment |
Gang Up on the Human : Averted; the aggressive wildlife, bandits/Ophanim and Chosen will all fight each other. Humanoid targets will also stop attacking players to fight back against wildlife that wandered by. This is even lampshaded in an early mission where you drop pheromones in a bandit camp. There's a mission where you need to bolster the bandits' morale against the Chosen. Later on, the Chosen will deploy mining thumpers and be completely swarmed by angry wildlife, just like it would be for players. | |

Gang of Hats | |
| Firefall (Video Game) / int_5bf69547 | comment |
Gang of Hats: The various human criminal groups are not only themed and territorial, but Color-Coded for Your Convenience. The Black Hills gang all wear dark grey, hooded cloaks, haunt the Northern Shores region, and comprise a significant number of ex-Accord troops. The Rebels of western Coral Forest wear dark green gear and ski masks, speak with vaguely South American accents, loathe the Accord, and yell things like "Viva Brazil!" The Reapers are pirates who wear blue gear and hang out along the southern coast of Coral Forest, around Sunken Harbor. Some of them sound vaguely Australian. The Chimera of Fortaleza Antigua and The Nest are Hollywood Hackers that wear bright green, have overly superior attitudes and like to commit Interface Screw against you. The poachers of Cerrado Plains are the the most generic group, wearing plain brown/black gear and not having motivation other then, well, poaching. Charon's Cultists are probably the worst of the lot, murderous zealots on a Path of Inspiration. Some of them wear bright red and scary glowing-eye masks. The Buzzards of Sertao are rowdy bikers who wear orange gear. | |

In open beta, melding repulsors could be triggered to gradually push back the melding wall and temporarily hold it at its new front. The wall advances back into place after repulsor charge is spent (with time or due to mobs sabotage). As of 1.6, repulsors can still be found and used when the Chosen take over watchtowers, since this now involves them putting a Melding bubble over it and denying access to humans entirely. | |

Universal Ammunition: Heavy Laser Machine Gun (Dreadnaught), balls-of-plasma-firing Fusion Cannon (Assault), toxin-themed Bio-Rifle (Medic), forearm-mounted Electric/Lazer Gun (Engineer), hyper-accurate fully-automatic Sniper Rifle (Recon), delayed/at-will blast Sticky Grenade Launcher, all have ammo replenished by the universal powerups. When a battleframe is equipped with both the signature and secondary weapons, the two have separate clips/ammo pool, but an ammo pick up restores both. More Dakka: And as of the release date, secondary weapons have infinite ammo. You still need to reload them though. | |

Some opponents can be executed (not that you get to see many opponents with instanced PvP having been Put on a Bus) and will come back alive. And some V.I.P. enemies will be captured alive thanks to your battleframe's non-lethal weapon settings - even if you shot them in the head with a nuclear-powered sniper rifle. | |

Rocket-Tag Gameplay | |
| Firefall (Video Game) / int_8b0a127 | comment |
Rocket-Tag Gameplay: You versus large armies / giant angry animals. Your battleframe and its weapons are almost always superior to any equally-leveled enemy, but they more than make up for that in sheer numbers. If you are out in the open, have attracted the violent hatred of every enemy on the field, and don't have enough jet power or the right skills to evade their shots, you are likely going to die in seconds. If you play your cards right, you can pick off their army like flies while they're desperately trying to find and hit you. Giant animals, on the other hand, play this more straight: your attacks will decimate these goliaths in a matter of seconds, but a Claw or a Slinger can kill you in one direct hit. Hell Slingers can do instant-kill damage on fully-leveled players. | |

Allegedly Free Game: Notably averted. Red Beans (the real money currency) can be bought with in-game currency, and most of the items in the shop are cosmetic in nature or of the "temporary exp/currency boost" variety. The only thing that comes close to an exception is the advanced battleframes, which are still not overpowered compared to their basic free counterparts. In fact, an not-infrequent complaint is that people want to spend money but have nothing to spend it on! | |

Sole Survivor | |
| Firefall (Video Game) / int_aa30e350 | comment |
Sole Survivor: A cut plotline involved the player collaborating with an ARES team called the Devilhawks. This culminated in a disasterous joint raid on the Blackwater Anomaly, leaving only the team's female Recon, Fade, alive. Throughout this version of Blackwater you heard transmissions from Fade, the most quiet and distant member of the Devilhawks. She became Not So Stoic, suffering a quiet breakdown, and began to ramble. Nonetheless, she was your sole backup against Blackwater's Final Boss-and she held her own. What happened to her thereafter was never explored. | |

Deadpan Snarker: The Chosen, when you kill them. They sometimes say "Oh, you got me now," in a very sarcastic tone. Considering none of them are even remotely concerned about dying, there's either a Hive Mind involved, they respawn just like the player, or something else. Some bandits make a dying joke - "Oh, you shot me for reals!" or "My face!" | |

Colony Drop: The titular Firefall. Originally one massive asteroid, it shattered for unknown reasons into a swarm of smaller ones. As a result, humanity was not wiped out, just severely fucked up. It also deposited the first crystite samples, though those weren't discovered until some time after. The crash of the Arclight also counts as this. The biggest space ship ever built by man lands on Brazil and proceeds to wipe out an entire city. | |

We Will Spend Credits in the Future: An additional currency introduced with "Live" patch is called "credits". It deposed crystite as currency for selling and buying items between players (players can convert their crystite into credits, with a daily quota in place). Player driven exchange of credits with "cash shop" currency (Red Beans) is available. Credits have their uses as instant-revives, but at a price of 250 credits (6250 crystite) per revive, it's really not worth it. | |

Sadistic Choice: In the Back Story. Consul Nostromo was the captain of the Arclight on what would have been it's maiden voyage. When disaster struck and the ship fell out of orbit, all he could do was decide where it was going to hit: heavily populated Rio De Janeiro, or Fortaleza, which had significantly fewer people... but was home to his own wife and son. He chose Fortaleza, and hasn't been the same man since. | |

Standard grey Cobras can be found in single use call-downs by renting them from specific consoles in the world. It was once possible to obtain a permanent bike via a quest, when you reached the second major Hub City, Dredge. Reaching Level 40 on any frame previously unlocked a blueprint for a permanent blue Cobra. | |

Boom, Headshot!: Some, not all, weapons deal extra damage on headshots. In pre-"Live" versions, the signature sniping rifles of Nighthawk and Raptor battleframes — among other things, immediately grant a bonus of experience points for scoring a headshot (even if it weren't lethal). If killing a humanoid normally would net some 8 to 10 XP, these sniper rifles send it up to 100 XP with bonuses for one-shot-headshotting. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Firefall (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Crystite originally appeared in the early sci-fi mining sim M.U.L.E., where it was the only commodity that wasn't used for anything. An early equipment vendor in Copacabana was named Kaylee. Consul Nostromo is named after the Joseph Conrad novel of the same name. One set of ARES missions in Sertao has you go looking for the heir to the Astrek fortune. Instead you find Sand Man and Quail. A series of ARES missions are handed out by an Omnidyne manager who, needs you to just go ahead and do this thing. If you could. That'd be greeeeaaat. The game story, context and elements take a lot of elements from other works of fiction. The Arclight warp drive opens a portal to somewhere evil. Out of the portal comes out an evil cloud that spawns or turn humans into evil soldiersnote Warp Storm. Humans that are killed but not "Chosen" are turned into zombie-like carcasses. Human soldiers wear Powered Armor with a large reactor in their backnote Dreadnaughts are especially reminiscent of Marines, and recon look like the Ghosts, Aranhas tend to attack in large swarms that reminds players of Starship Troopers. It's all done so seamlessly that it doesn't look like anything was stolen. | |

Advancing Wall of Doom | |
| Firefall (Video Game) / int_e57198a4 | comment |
Advancing Wall of Doom: In open beta, melding repulsors could be triggered to gradually push back the melding wall and temporarily hold it at its new front. The wall advances back into place after repulsor charge is spent (with time or due to mobs sabotage). As of 1.6, repulsors can still be found and used when the Chosen take over watchtowers, since this now involves them putting a Melding bubble over it and denying access to humans entirely. Major "town" repulsing towers, if not properly defended in a Chosen invasion event (regular in open beta versions), get destroyed and result in melding gradually, if rather quickly, engulfing the place, wiping out all players still there by that time. In the "Melding pocket" located at the other end of the portal left by a freshly destroyed Melding Tornado, which is optional to visit and is essentially a contracting bubble somewhere withing the Melding. The Melding wall advances in with short pauses, leaving less and less safe space and killing anyone too slow to escape it. | |

No "Arc" in "Archery": Mostly played straight by the bullet-firing weapons, but averted in the case of the primary weapons of the stock Assault, Firecat, Mammoth, Dragonfly, and of course the Bastion's grenades, which all arc over a distance.

The Battlestar: The Arclight, the largest spaceship built by man. Technically meant for 'research and colony aid,' its primary purpose was as a military ship to keep control of the faraway Alpha Prime colony and its vital crystite deposits. First ship to use arcfolding technology. Unfortunately, it crashed when humanity attempted their first arcfolding launch. The resulting crash created a rift to an alternate dimension which allowed the Melding to reach earth. | |

A cutscene late in 1.6's new story missions reveals that the melding on Earth is now separate and different somehow from that of its parent universe... the latter attacks Big Bad Serkan! | |

Microtransactions: Firefall is getting some attention (for example, the Extra Credits team) for its commitment to the free to play model and using strictly microtransactions to fund the game. According to Extra Credits, this game is the first Triple-A quality game to be this committed to this model. | |

Everything Is Online | |
| Firefall (Video Game) / int_f6507695 | comment |
Everything Is Online: Subverted. Almost everything is now online, via a network called SIN- soldier interfaces, the computers of the homeless, hallucinogenic drugs - but not instant messaging. Justified by the small population of humanity's survivors - now it's easier to give out free internet than military-grade food, but there's less junk data to sift through so hacking is super-effective. | |

Tim Taylor Technology: The battleframes are readily capable of handling more power then normal. It's even the Limit Break of the Tigerclaw frame, and a less powerful example is usable by any Assault frame. The Biotechs posess buffs that can amp up other players' frames, the Raptor can do this to its primary weapon, and the Bastion can do this to their turrets... though it results in Explosive Overclocking. | |

Item Crafting | |

Item Crafting: A heavy part of the game was gathering resources from thumping and from dead enemies, and then using them to craft your gear. This was cut as of 1.6, and never re-enabled. In the end, you could upgraderandom drops by speaking with "Tinker" Non Player Characters. | |

Spider Tank | |
| Firefall (Video Game) / int_ff8afd14 | comment |
Spider Tank: More like Spider Battleships, but still. The Chosen war machines shown so far tend to be on the order or massive, multi-legged, and heavily armed. The small bits that we have seen. They also have a lot of Spiky Doom bits and are darker to contrast the lighter and more shiny parts of the Accord. | |

Perpetual Beta | |
| Firefall (Video Game) / int_ffd41689 | comment |
Perpetual Beta: The game had a protracted beta phase and post-launch, continued to be plagued with bugs and technical issues, some of them dating back to the earliest playable builds. The developers' headcount had been reduced steadily over the years, which only compacted those problems. To wit, there were no official news or updates from May of 2016 until the announcement of its shutdown. | |
