Background


By the end of the 22nd century, the overcrowding of Earth’s cities, the growing drain on natural resources, and the memories of recent violence caused mankind to desire new and remote locations to start their lives over again. The International Space Administration’s colonization efforts provided the perfect solution – distant havens for hundreds of thousands of Earth’s citizens to take up residence. However, as colonization efforts spread and the Vortex-Net brought humanity to the stars in ever-greater numbers, mankind’s footprint became more noticeable on a galactic scale. By the mid-24th century Earth’s spreading population had become obvious, attracting the attention of a very hostile and aggressive alien race.

Contact with the initial interstellar colonies was lost, and special task forces were established and sent out to investigate – and if necessary exterminate – the hostile species presumed responsible. Many of these soldiers were never heard from again – the new enemy proved to be exceptionally resilient and much faster than mankind’s forces were prepared for.

Meanwhile, in the late 24th century on Earth, life carries on in a manner that mankind has become accustomed to over hundreds of years. People continue trading, cheating, stealing and fighting with each other over territorial and production control. The Vortex-Net has made possible nearly instantaneous travel between distant locations, increasing traffic and trade between the thriving cities around the globe, and the globalization of currency has made economic competition a more transparent and universal paradigm.

The Global Dominion is barely able to maintain a fair and democratic system because of corruption, bribery and in-fighting among the many factions and splinter groups. Maintaining constant control and unity of governance requires most of the Global Dominion’s time and effort as a governing body. Clans are being formed that are creating their own systems within the system - effectively taking various economic aspects of society into their own hands. They are establishing independent mercenary troops in an effort to free the colonies from the alien occupation, seeing the imminent benefit if they can claim them under their own sovereign governance. The clans are in constant competition with one another, sending spies and agents into the other organizations to observe their progress and to gather information that might give them the upper hand.

As the people get information about the distant war, many are beginning to fear an eventual spread of the conflict to Earth itself. Brave men and women are venturing into battle to protect the future of humanity, each accompanied by only their destiny as they find their way in this dystopian world. Will it be the drive toward corporate profit, a clan’s new idealism, or the iron hand of law and order that proves itself to be true Face of Mankind? Only time will tell...

However, the next few weeks will be very interesting for the US and the European fans of this game ;). Indeed this game kicks as and in my opinion Diablo 3 can't beat Hellgate in any way. Hellgate is definitely an awesome game!

the only reason that its similar to perfect world is because its the same graphic engine. i love this graphic engine because you don't need a high tech alien computer to function the game with amazing visuals! anyway, the ancient civilazations concept is original and cool. i can't wait to try this game!)

its really a great game with its own story and history(there were different Allods games for like, 10 years?) and though it really resembles wow in its design and graphic it surely rivals it
