The gang at Outpostgamez had a talk with Brian Holinka, Lead Technical Designer for Frontlines:Fuel of War. He talks about consulting with the US military, about how friendly the modding will be, leaderboards and a lot of other good stuff.

OPG: What type of environments will a gamer experience, examples such as sand storms, rain, wind?

FFOW: The variety in the landscapes that our level designers, lead by Richard “Iggy” Cowgill of Desert Combat fame, and environment artists have built is tremendous. While we don’t have any in-game weather systems per se, they’ve been very creative in using environmental effects to build really immersive ambience. Coupled with some really powerful and impressive sound (I’ll be blatantly honest, I feel our sound superior to many of our competitors that I’ve played recently), it makes you forget your staring at a screen and draws you in. I’m really proud of what those guys have done and I’m just glad to have been associated with them on this project.
