Soul Master ( http://www.mmozone.com/soul-master.html )
){kind=link}
Developed by NPluto for Windows, Soul Master is an addictive new genre-bending MMORTS (Massively Multiplayer Online Real Time Strategy) game that takes the innovation behind customizable “Hero” units in the RTS genre farther than ever before and allows players to have complete MMORPG-style control over their characters.
Featuring a combat system that allows players to create structures, progress through technology trees, produce and command units, while at the same time developing a persistent character of their own; Soul Master includes rich item customization systems that enable players to acquire unique stat and skill bonuses both for their personalized avatars as well as their RTS buildings, production capabilities, and controlled units. In addition to the robust PvP content, Soul Master features a wide range of PVE scenario modes such as defending objectives, escort missions, co-op challenges, boss raids, and AI RTS battles.
A non-targeting combat system allows for action-driven gameplay, where player reactions and skills decide the outcome of fights. An independent trooping system allows for directive and intuitive command over multiple units, while simultaneously allowing players more comprehensive control over their avatars during active MMO-style combat. Resource-driven RTS combat allows players to create defensive towers, barricades, resource arvesting structures, and unit production facilities while progressing through simplified, traditional RTS tech-trees that let players focus on strategic, active gameplay in both Team and Free-for-All PvP (free mmorpg).
With fast paced combat that combines the high-speed action of a character vs. character brawler and the tactical elements of a squad-based RTS, Soul Master sets out to take the very best of both worlds and merge them into a genre unto itself.
Dofus ( http://www.mmozone.com/dofus.html )
){kind=link}
DOFUS is a Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game. As a mixture of video game and interactive animated cartoon, DOFUS brings a new concept within online games. With its oneiric graphics inspired by mangas, its tactical gameplay and its cynical humour, this game is in a class of its own among other MMORPGs. Experienced players are appealed by its unique fighting system which is based on strategy quite rare in MMORPGs. Developed by Ankama Games for Windows, Mac and Linux, Casual players also like it for being easily accessible.
Dofus takes place in the ‘The World of Twelve’ (although many players just refer to it as the Dofus World), named after the 12 character classes which inhabit it. Players control a 2D avatar (with a slight anime/manga feel) belonging to one of the 12 character classes in a3rd person view.
There are twelve character classes in Dofus. Each class has a unique set of spells that other classes can not obtain (although some spells are shared with creatures living in Dofus). The classes are: Ecaflip’s Coin, Sadida’s Shoe, Eniripsa’s Hands, Osamodas’s Whip, Iop’s Heart, Enutrof’s Fingers, Cra’s Range, Sram’s Shadow, Feca’s Shield, Xelor’s Sandglass, Sacrier’s Blood and Pandawa’s Flask.
Whist the game takes place in real-time, combat in Dofus is conducted more like a turn based strategy game – where each player takes it in turns to make a series of moves and attacks within a time limit. As such, when a player attacks monsters – they are transported to a ‘copy map’ where the fighting takes place. Once a fight begins, no other players may join that fight.
