You will not be able to play if you buy this game, again THIS GAME IS UNPLAYABLE DUE TO THE SERVERS BEING SHUT DOWN. Please listen to this warning.

IMPORTANT NEWS: The managers of the Auto Assault MMO have _closed_ the game; this, no-one can play it anymore.
While AA was a fun and enjoyable MMO, it never gained a large enough player-base to sustain itself financially. In June of 2007, PlayNC announced that the single remaining server would be shut down; at this time, they stopped charging for playtime, stopped accepting re-subscription requests, and stopped allowing the creation of new accounts.
The servers were officially taken off-line on August 31, 2007.
Sorry, folks. The lights are out, the music's stopped playing, and even the janitor has already left the building.
 THE BIG ADVENTURE BEGINS ! April 22, 2006

I am a big fan of massively multiplayer online games and PLAYNC should be more than happy to have customers like me. City of Heroes City of Villains Guild Wars Lineage II are some of my favorite games and I did review some of them with 4 and 5 stars. I can understand as an old and experienced gamer that the more complicated are the games the more bugs you are going to deal with. What I can't understand is how a game with 5 years of development can have so many bugs and specially when hundreds of gamers like me we supported the development of the game not only dedicating our time but PAYING for the pre-order version. There are no excuses for treating the advanced gamers which is your target group like this.
On the top of all PLAYNC has created a very nice online adventure game called "support". Each time I used it in the past I was forwarded from one server to another (From U.S. support to the European support e.t.c. then I was getting a ticket number I was logging in my support site and then I was checking for my answer. Nice easy and requires no time at all.
Ah! I forgot to tell you about the game. The concept is really good you choose a hero and a customized vehicle with high-tech, futuristic weaponry in order to fight the mutated creatures and bandits. You will be able to participate in epic battles and wars over the control of the regions. You can develop advanced crafting skill you will able to fully customize your vehicle and you are going to develop your abilities.
The environment is a devastated Earth where you can blow up buildings, trees, and other structures and fortunately you never run out of ammo
The game includes PvP (Player vs. Player) interaction clan/solo Arena dueling for fame and fortune.
Now please do not get me wrong the game is very good the only problem is that it is UNFINISHED. I would recommend waiting UNTIL THEY FINISH IT FIRST and then YOU WILL BUY THE FULL VERSION. Trust me when they will finish it I promise I will change my review but until then try it only if you don't mind to crash your system every time you play.
 An excellent game, but with it's own little problems. April 22, 2006

Another excellent game published by NCSoft, Auto Assault excels at keeping players entertained by bringing back the pleasures of Twisted Metal in the form of an MMO. But unlike Twisted Metal, Auto Assault boasts fully destructible environments, realistic game physics, and an impressive graphics engine that makes the game incredible fun to play. And, to make the game easier to play with friends, Auto Assault incorporates built-in voice chat, something that many other MMOs do not.
What Auto Assault offers in terms of PvP action makes the game equally exciting. While combat between factions is limited to specific zones, there is Arena-based PvP where players compete in ladder-type tournaments for in-game cash and experience.
But, like many MMOs freshly released to the public, it has it's own set of problems. Every now and then, you'll see the Bug Report window come up, and ask you to report what's happened to the technical support teams. While it can be irritating, it does help the tech support teams to fix the game (and trust me, they do fix the problems :D).
Overall, at it's current phase, Auto Assault is an excellent game. Once several of the in-game problems get fixed, it will be outright incredible.
Had promise but disappointed in the end April 14, 2006

I've been playing AA since beta and I've seen it grow in unique ways but unfortunately, the game is still plagued by numerous bugs and requires some serious tinkering. In the one day since the game went live, I re-recorded over 80 issues that any player will encounter in the game. This issues plus hundreds more have been given to the dev team many times but they are haven't given us the slightest sign that they are aware of the issues or are going to address them.
Like other players that I've talked to, they are also disappointed with the performance of the game and the frequent lag that you'll experience while driving and especially in any town. I will continue to play the game for the first month as it's free but after that, if there's no improvement then my friends and I are leaving.
