You will be involved in a battle between giant robots are super epic. Designed as a Free to Play game, Hawken finally entered the open beta yesterday.

Built using the Unreal Engine 3, visualization offered by Hawken will spoil your eyes during the battle. The developer should be recognized manages to present battles proper atmosphere, not just from the visuals on offer, but also the design of the existing environment. You will be exposed to a variety of fields that are designed to leave the impression of a massive, from super high buildings and large, to the dusty desert dramatic. Unfortunately, the open beta is only classified as mecha design offers very little. There are three main classes, and so far the Rocketeer getting the most captivating form. Mecha with a rocket launcher it appears solid, elegant, with a big and two-thrower's body on the side of right and left shoulder.

Unfortunately, the Open Beta has not provided an option to change the physical mecha significantly.

Positioned as a pilot Mecha, you will see the battle from the cockpit, with a wide viewing angle which also showed two guns at the top left and right. Various HUD that will help you also provided to capture clearer battle conditions, both in terms of your own and the enemies you face. You can see the amount of health remaining, temperature weapons (guns will stop working if overheated), map location, the enemy gets a red indicator, when reloading weapons, and enemies health if you are engaged in open warfare. All this information can you get from this HUD.

Although the theme of the war between the super unique mecha, Hawken can be seen is like a FPS game, like Counter Strike, but in her mecha. The fight between the iron robot does contain the same essence, spewing bullets as much as possible to destroy any enemies in front of your eyes, while also making sure you survive. You will be equipped with two types of weapons, the primary weapon in your left hand (usually a rifle or sub-machine gun) and secondary weapon (or a rocker-shaped grenade launcher) you can mutually in your personal garage before battle. There is no limit bullet that you should pay attention, because they are not limited. But the primary weapon is limited by temperature and overheat conditions that may occur, while a secondary weapon, though strong, has a slow reload time. Battles and tactics severely tested here.

Just like mecha games in general, any mecha in Hawken is also equipped with a booster to accelerate the movement of fuel certain limits. Not only can you use this booster to move forward, but also sideways to avoid the weapon, or backward to rotate 180 degrees as quickly as possible. Booster can also be used to float in the air in a long time. You will often use this function as a strategy of effective offense and defense. So what if you get hurt badly? Relax, there is an option to heal. By simply holding down the "C", you can call a droid that will fix all the damage you to the limit maksimal.Namun beware, you can not do anything during this repair process, making you vulnerable to sudden attack. You can also add a bit of health by absorbing the energy that occur after the enemy mecha were killed. Not only attack, you also have to fight to survive.

There are four modes to choose from in this Hawken: Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Assault Missile and Siege. Deathmatch mode is like a free for all, where all the mecha will fight each other, with points based on the number of enemies that you successfully conquered and managed to damage you contribute. 

Team Deathmatch also carries the essence of the gameplay is the same, but this time in the form of the team. Not just fighting blindly forward, was in the crowd of friends and work together of course be the best way to win the battle. Missile Assault is similar to Capture the Flag multiplayer FPS games in general, where you have to seize the territory of a missile silo that will continue to fire missiles into enemy territory. Point will continue to be reduced every time a missile is fired successfully. Of all the modes available, may be regarded most unique Siege. You have to collect the energy to launch a giant battle cruiser and defend it from the attacks of the opposing team. The team managed to win will be counted if the battle cruiser managed to get to the headquarters of the opposing team.
