Judgment day is coming. No, not that one (or even that one). The fire and brimstone of your typical MMORPG launch is bearing down on the world of Faxion Online thanks to the official announcement of the title's launch date. UTV True Games has issued a press release confirming that the free-to-play fantasy game will debut on May 26th and bring its unique blend of tongue-in-cheek humor and an irreverent take on PvP to players across the globe.
Faxion's conflict revolves around the control of war-torn Limbo, the halfway house between heaven and hell that serves as the game's central locale. Players will also fight over the seven deadly sins in a never-ending struggle between light and dark. "We are excited to launch Faxion Online, and based on our burgeoning community's feedback, we have added several new features that will only intensify the combat-driven gameplay experience," says UTV's Frank Lucero. While today's press release doesn't elaborate when it comes to the new features, we'll be bringing you more Faxion-related info as launch day draws near.

I hope they update the UI by then because that is my major flaw for the game. A few others, but I could overlook those with a better UI. They still got a while though.

@ZachDude You just read my mind, the UI is the most obvious weak spot. Not that its horribly horrible but it is sub-par for the gaming era we're in, and seems more like a throw-back to the past.
On the other hand, it is a F2P title and is not alone in suffering from clunky UI issues.
On the other other hand, there are quite a few F2P titles that have excellent UIs so it really is no excuse.

Performance is also terrible. I've got a i5-2500K at 4.2 and a 480GTX at 800/1900 and the game can still easily bring my system to its knees at 1920x1200. Considering how unimpressive the graphics are that's just plain stupid.

@Tempes Magus There's nothing special about 1920x1200. An OCed 480GTX is more than enough power for that resolution. This game is just horribly optimized.
