R.I.P Auto Assault
February 11, 2008
NC Soft announced in September 2007 that the Auto Assault servers would be shutting down. Permanently.
By October 2007, the last of the Human, Mek and Mutant combat vehicles had been unloaded, powered down and moth-balled. Plasma cannons and rocket launchers were laid down and a quiet settled over the post-apocalyptic landscape.
Thus ended a unique chapter in MMORPG history. I’d be willing to bet my gatling, however, that this won’t be the last we see of a vehicular combat MMOG.
Rising from the ashes of this demise, however, was a new experience called Tabula Rasa. Because I still had an active Auto Assault account, NC Soft gave me access to the beta, and a free live account to boot!
See you on Foreas, recruits! May the Logos be with you.
