Undeep Akrid emerge and surprise the humans. View larger. An Epic Story This fast-paced third person shooter takes you across the vast and frozen landscapes of E. D. N. III. The ability to fight stealthily on-foot or from within heavily armored Vital Suits offers two unique modes of gameplay. While on foot, use the zip line to get up to strategic enemy-annihilating vantage point and discover unexplored areas and weapons. Or, jump into your own Vital Suit or hijack an enemy Snow Pirate's Vital Suit to go head to head with enormous and more powerful Akrid foes. Lost Planet's highly anticipated multiplayer mode lets gamers participate in heated online matches in stages such as "Pirate Fortress" with support for up to 16 players via the Xbox Live¨ online game service. Players are able to select from multiple weapons, unique robotic assault vehicles and play modes including Elimination, Team Elimination, Post Grab and Fugitive. A Suit of Destruction Vital Suits (or VS) are machinery specially developed to suit the extreme conditions on E. D. N. III and replace heavy working equipment brought over from Earth at the beginning of colonization. VS are equipped with a power output device that allows them to utilize Thermal Energy collected from the Akrid without any processing. They are equipped with a variety of weaponry and high mobility in order to battle the Akrid, but they can be especially deadly to humans as well. Different VS allow the player to perform different maneuvers. The basic GT-01 was originally created to assist with aid efforts at the start of colonization. As a result, it is limited in its expandability and armor. Conversely, the GTF-11 was the first VS to be equipped with an advanced posture control system originally designed for space fighters. This allows the GTF-11 to be outfitted with flight propulsion, and as a result it has been heavily used in the current colonization effort. An Alien Horde Indigenous creatures to the planet, Akrid have adapted to the extremely low temperatures. All Akrid possess the ability to extract a rare mineral from the frozen ground and chemically convert it inside themselves into "Thermal Energy" and use it as their energy source. Humans discovered the Thermal Energy inside the Akrid and fight them over the valuable resource in order to survive the deadly cold. A number of different Akrid ply the vast snow fields of E. D. N. Chryatis, for example, is extremely aggressive and has heightened senses. Upon sensing thermal energy that it traces from any living being other than another Akrid, it immediately attacks the source as a threat that must be eradicated. Once in attack mode, the Chryatis won't stop until all traces of thermal energy are gone. While Chryatis is busy eliminating prey on the ground, the smaller Trilid Akrid take to the skies. Weak on their on but strong in swarms, Trilid attack in groups to overcome and confuse their opponents. However, not all Akrid are what they appear to be. Dongo, a crawling Akrid, has an extremely hard outer shell that forms a nearly indestructible armor. It attacks by curling into a ball and rolling into or over foes at high speed, or by using its large pincers for stomping and crushing. The Undeep Akrid uses tenticles that act as a sort of radar. This allows it to pick up on the movement of Vital Suits from miles away. The most mysterious of all the Akrid, not much is known about these giant creatures. A Worthy Arsenal There are many types of weapons available and while some weapons are meant for use while operating on foot, others are meant for being loaded onto Vital Suits for more aggressive pushes forward. The Vital Suit weapons can also be used separately from the Vital Suit and do pack a more powerful punch, but are much heavier, bulkier, and more difficult to carry in combat. Your standard issue rifle is a machine gun, firing 5. 56mm low-caliber high-velocity rounds and allowing you to lay down fire while moving, perfect for taking down multiple Akrid in a hurry! The semi-automatic rifle, on the other hand, comes complete with a high powered scope to allow you to zoom in on your target. Shots from this weapon can even pierce thin layers of Vital Suit armor, should such a confrontation become necessary. Hand grenades round out your basic arsenal and can be used as both a strategic and "twitch" weapon. They have a standard range and damage and are very easy to use. Due to their round shape, they bounce and ricochet easily, while shooting these hand grenades produces a larger, more powerful explosion- a key strategy in battle!
