Gameplay Mechanics
- Players must capture these outposts to gain control over a region. Capturing involves various missions like stealth operations, combat engagements, or tactical diplomacy.
- Once an outpost is captured, it can be used for resources, spawning points, and accessing new missions.
- Captured outposts are constantly under threat from rival factions. The rival African faction will attempt to reclaim outposts, while the World Coalition might try to loot them.
- Players must strategize to defend their outposts, which can involve setting up defences, stationing troops, or personally intervening.
- Gaining control of all outposts in a region grants the player control over that region. This unlocks new story arcs, resources, and special abilities.
- Regional control also impacts the game’s narrative, influencing alliances and enemy movements.
The game world is dynamic, with outposts and regions constantly changing hands between factions. This creates a living, evolving world where player actions have significant impacts.
Managing resources and deciding where to allocate forces and defenses becomes a crucial aspect of gameplay. Players must balance offensive strategies with the need to maintain and defend their existing territories.
To enhance the competitive aspect of “Afro-Future Rising,” a MOBA-style element will be integrated, focusing on 1v1v1 or 2v2v2 matches.
- In this mode, three players, each representing one of the game’s factions (Pan-African Alliance, African Sovereign Front, World Coalition), compete against each other.
- Each player starts with a base in a randomly assigned region of the map.
