What Is It?
The Last Frontier is a 3rd person action MMO that could best be described as massively multiplayer Battlezone. It’s in alpha right now and fortunately isnt going the cash grab route. Gameplay is centered around PVP with an emphasis on base building and resource gathering. Bases will gather resources 24/7 and can be upgraded in game or from the web based game client.

Base building is probably the most fleshed out part of the game so far. You can build bases anywhere on the huge open world map where naturally the more dangerous the location the more lucrative the resources. It's all open PVP so players can and will wreck your base if you start slacking, getting in an alliance city or grouping up is encouraged.

Features in game now:
  • Action oriented floaty hover tank combat
  • Large open-world planet
  • Base and City construction
  • Full web client for watching your drones at work
  • Full PVP

Here is a video of some intolerable youtube dork going over the gameplay:

How to Play:
Unfortunately the alpha is Invite only and requires a key to register. That being said, everyone that gets in can invite up to 3 people. They are also very quick in getting keys out so you shouldn’t have to wait more than a week to get in if you register for one here

If there is enough interest I can set up a invite section here where we can coordinate sending out keys.

I’ve currently got my three invites so if you want one say so.

you didn't use the word sandbox, but you can't fool me

Yeah it's not really a sandbox. Most of the base mechanics are more like a rts than like rust or other sandboxes.

One of the things that appealed to me about the game is the devs have pretty so clear roadmap and arnt promising everything to everyone.
