14 DAY TRIAL // Speedball 2 is the remake of an old Commodore Amiga futuristic sports title, Speedball 2: Brutal Deluxe. The game's upcoming PC remake is being published by Frogster Interactive Pictures and developed by Kylotonn. This week, the game's publisher has decided to treat fans to some information on one of the game's player classes - the Cyborgs.
Asthe official report goes, Frogster's remake of Speedball 2 lets PC players select between three distinct player classes. Action aficionados can create their individual team formation from hard-boiled male Gladiators, smart Amazons and resistant Cyborgs.
It has been confirmed that each class differs in visual appearance. However, this isn't the only distinctive feature that the classes feature. Each class also embodies important game-play attributes through the balance of the six fundamental skills speed, aggressiveness, accuracy, power, resistance and stamina. Team management plays a crucial role in both the single player game and in multiplayer matches, as the game's publisher claims. A careful choice of team members for every position of the line-up can decide between victory or defeat in Speedball 2.
Another important aspect that future gamers should take into consideration is that they'll also be able to switch from an offensive, defensive or counter tactical setup in real-time during the game. OK, enough making sure everyone's on the same level. The part that follows is strictly for fans, so here's what the Cyborg class has been introduced for:
The futuristic Cyborg has the best resistance of the three player classes due to its entirely metal body, says the official description. However, his stamina level is the lowest, so he needs to recover energy as often as possible. Overall, the Cyborg is the best all-round player who can play easily on every position on the pitch, but is the least specialized of the three classes. For all three team skins of the retail version, Kylotonn designed a high polygon model of each class that differs decisively in its look.
Two Cyborg models can be seen in the picture to the top left side of the article (click to enlarge). Have a good one!
