I just signed up to apply for the beta of battlefield heroes, a FTP (Free to play) shooter, which is browser based, and which will be supported by an item shop and advertising.
The game is being released by EA (Electronic arts) and looks like it’s going to be a blast to play, with cartooney graphics and great character customisation.
Gameplay :
Battlefield Heroes features a modified conquest mode providing each team 50 tickets and eventually one flag at the start of the round. Killing enemies will reduce tickets and holding more flags than the opposing army will also grant a multiplier to the team. It is possible to win by owning more flags than the enemy and by killing fewer of them.

Matchmaking will also be a feature to keep players of the same level together. Players will be matched against other players of a similar experience level. Developers of the game have talked about levels going as high as 40 or 50. The two armies are called the National Army (possessing a red base color flag) and the Royal Army (possessing a blue base color flag). The game is third-person only at this point, but senior producer Ben Cousins has stated if first-person is really wanted, it may be added in at a later date. Spawn times are five seconds (compared to previous Battlefield games’ 15), allowing for less waiting and more action.
Players do not pick spawn points since the game has an “Intelligent Spawn System” putting players closest to the nearest battle. Three maps will be available on release.
Looks like it’s going to be a blast!
