Auto Assault Preview

MMORPGDot has published a preview of Auto Assault, apparently based on some firsthand time with NCsoft and NetDevil's MMORPG. Here's a taste:
As you progress through the levels you get 2 points per level to spend on one of four attributes: Combat, Tech, Theory and Perception. You also get 1 point to spend on one of Faction and Class Skills. Each faction has a choice of four classes ranging from a blowing up person, building techie type, sneaky infiltrator and the so called "master-mind" class (yes, even YOU get a chance to play the role of the leading world power's prime minister!!). You also get to customize your avatar for those lazy city shopping spree sessions or when you're entertaining friends (or that special mutant lady) in your humble pad. I personally went for the angry marine look, complete with canon arm. The canon arm wasn't too useful an investment as it is merely a cosmetic prosthetic, which can create considerable embarrassment when attempting to open a wine bottle for that afore-mentioned mutant lady friend.
