A buzz is building around ... Terra: Battle for the Outland.

-Wired

Fashioned by software designers who spent the last decade or so building tank simulators for the Pentagon, 'Terra: Battle for the Outland' is a marvel.

-Associated Press

Terra just might do for Internet gaming what Doom did for PC action games just a few years ago.

-Bikini

The first truly playable, massively-multiuser, VR game environment on the Internet.

-GamesDomain

Terra is an online game like no other.

I have yet to see another 3D multiplayer game with this much complexity and potential for growth. Driving around blasting everything in sight is fun, but Terra: Battle for the Outland gives gamers a chance to use the deadliest weapon of them all -- the human brain.

-Emil Pagliarula, Editor-in-Chief, The Adrenaline Vault

...Terra: Battle for the Outland, is a very special experience... mesmerizing landscape... the gameworld is immense... drive around in futuristic tanks to conquer territories... chat with teammates, bolster the Terran economy and follow your progress in the daily Web newspaper. Your enemies can make moves 24/7, so don't fall asleep.

Latency? What latency? Terra is designed to be tolerant of latencies up to 5 seconds (5000ms) long! While this might seem excessive to most users, it's important because it permits competitive play from people in foreign countries.

It's quite common to witness players of different clans giving each other some good-natured harassment during a battle. In addition, tutors are available every evening to answer questions and help resolve any arguments that might arise. All this combines to make one of the most player-friendly environments we've ever encountered.

What makes this particular 3D game most unique is that the action takes place in a persistant world. While you're away, the other players can take over your land, steal your money, and destroy your weapons. Your tank will automatically try to defend itself while you're gone, and you can set up robots to defend your forts, where you store your money.

Being Brave... isn't enough: wildy spraying rockets around the landscape won't do. On Terra, patience, planning and teamwork are worth a lot more than an itchy trigger finger.
