Augmented Reality Defense And First Shooter Games

By Jason Cole


When it comes to VR and first shooter games, there is often an augmented reality defense component. Currently, one of the most intense games is that of Front Defense. For, the game is based on World War II and puts the player front and center in firefights and a massive battle during the finale at the end of the game.

An arcade style game, First Defense is based on the last firefight at the end of World War II. In the game, the Normandy invasion is long over, though the firefights of war have just began. It is at this point that Front Defense puts the player in place as an Allied Forces hero sent to battle in the last attacks by an Axis in a fictional European town.

Very realistic in style and scope, the game allows the player to hide out behind various well armed and patrolled positions while ducking, diving, switching and reloading weapons. The weapons include everything from grenades to man-mounted guns and assault rifles. For, when it comes to defeating the enemy, players often need help from as many different resources as possible.

Created by some of the best developers and designers, the game provides the heaviest weaponry possible, reflecting the reality of World War II. As with war, the game uses precision, VR, battlefield and room scaling to provide realistic scenes which have been known to leave players feeling like active members of a unit during the war. For, the main priority behind Front Defense was to leave players feeling as if one were actually at war.

In fact, Front Defense is one of the most active, intense and realistic war games on the market. For, the experience and intensity of the WWII shooter is the first VR to use room scaling and precision tracking. As such, it allows the player to create strategic positions which are detailed by a European town which has been taken over and is being destroyed by enemy forces.

Being able to use a variety of weapons creates a situation in which the player must act on both knowledge and instinct. For, the player can choose to use armored cars, dive bombers and tanks in an effort to defeat opposing forces. Most players actually find the finale to be one of the most dramatic of any previous first shooter war games. In fact, many suggest that the finale is nothing less than climatic in comparison.

While these games have often been controversial, it seems most are becoming more accepted. For, it has been discovered that a number of individuals have been using the games for stress relief, which could actually provide positive aspects. At the same time, it is recommended that children under 18 be supervised whether playing Front Defense or other first shooter games.

Front Defense is Windows based starting with Windows release 7 and subsequent releases. It is important to note that the game is not compatible with any release up and until Windows 7. When it comes to graphics, the game has a NVIDIA graphics interface with 12GM RAM, thus providing some of the most colorful, detailed and dramatic scenes in the VR first shooter market.
