It will remain active indefinitely, so you can roll over your progress to the full version from April 1, 2021. No FOMO required. We want you to take the time to watch the demo and then make an informed decision about whether Outrider is for you.
For some of you, this may be the first time you’ve heard about it Outrider. Or maybe it’s been on the edge of your consciousness for a while but you still want to know the details. You’re lucky. I’ve broken this article into segments so you can jump to the places that interest you most.
What is? Outrider?
Outrider is a brutal RPG co-op shooter set from the third person perspective. The gameplay focuses on combat, which is equally balanced between gunfight and the use of skills. We’ve intentionally minimized the cooldowns of skills to encourage frequent use.
RPG elements and loot play an important role in all of them Outrider Mechanics, and we’ve developed extensive crafting and modding options, as well as some very deep skill trees, so that each player can customize their character exactly how they want to play.
You can choose between four classes: the trickster, the pyromancer, the destroyer and the technomancer. Each of these has its own style of play and healing mechanics. Your weapons and armor not only affect the way you shoot, but also the way your skills work. Our Legendary Armor Bonuses can help you rethink your character builds from the ground up.
Outrider Plays best and is most fun when you adopt one of his guiding philosophies: Think aggressively. While each class in the game offers different healing mechanisms, they all generally relate to dealing damage or killing enemies in order to restore your own health.
As a quick example, the Trickster class will restore their health and shields when enemies die nearby. This means that when things get tough and you feel like you are about to die, you will want to throw yourself in in the middle of a fight, where the fighting is hardest. Running and hiding behind cover may work … but then just wait for enemies to wash you out with minimal health remaining. Survival requires aggression.
Oh one more thing: Outrider is delivered as a complete package, everything in the box. It is not a live service title and you can complete it.
Does Outrider Do you have a story
The premise of the story is that in the distant future we will try to colonize a planet that we believed was a new home for humanity. It turns out that the planet doesn’t want us there.
Electromagnetic storms (anomalies) burn out any technology more sophisticated than a lightbulb. Given the technological advantages we relied on and the flora and fauna that have evolved to combat human threats, colonization efforts quickly collapse into a bitter war of attrition for the last remaining resources for humanity.
As the Outrider, you will wake up from cryostasis 30 years after the first landings. You appear as a changed person, as a being with access to powerful abilities and healing abilities. A god on the always raging battlefield. This is where the main story begins …
