Auto Assault Preview

GamersInfo has written up a preview of NCsoft and NetDevil's Auto Assault, after spending some firsthand time with the post-apocalyptic vehicular MMORPG. A snippet to follow:
Game play is a blast, literally. When you first come into the world you enter a training area that is instanced. This way you don't have to worry about other players griefing you right from the start and you have the opportunity to learn how to maneuver your vehicle and play the game at your own pace. You are given a number of short tasks that will challenge you to drive, shoot, drive and shoot, and learn the basic layout of the game. You get an introduction to the UI and an opportunity to face enemies that range from slow heavy hitters to fast stingers as well as a number of bi-ped threats (which don't appreciate being run over by the way). When you have completed the basic skills training you will be thrust out into the world and you're on your own from there on.
