Storm United is a new first person shooter built in Unreal Engine that looks absolutely stunning. The developers have just released the game into early access, and we have some keys to help boost the player count.

About the game (Official)
Storm United is a class-based multiplayer First Person Shooter that aims to bring top tier fps fun and smooth sensations with the help of our unique procedural physically simulated weapon and camera movements tech. If you are a FPS fan, please try and feel it for yourself, we really worked a lot on the gameplay fluidity and hope you like it as much as we do!

Some notes
There is a little bit of micro stutter when firing now and then, but I haven't encountered it much. The developers are aware of it, and they told me they hope to push out a fix next week. There's also a crash bug on a particular map, the developers have already been notified and registered the bug on the Steam forum.

For me on an Nvidia 970 the game performs really well on the highest graphics settings, a near constant 60FPS. For a game that's new, and quite demanding, that's impressive.

I've been wanting a more tactical FPS on Linux, and Storm United really cool fit the bill for me quite well. The gameplay isn't slow, but it's nothing close to how fast games like Unreal Tournament can be, which for me is great.

The game really is beautiful, and it could turn into a serious contender in the FPS space. They even gained a grant from Epic Games directly, so I am excited to see how it can help them.

Originally all keys given before the Early Access release were going to be revoked, but the developers sent word earlier they have decided against it, and I feel it's a perfect decision to help their player count. Once the game leaves Early Access the developers plan to make it free to play, but without any pay to win features (customization). They may be revoked in future, so be warned.

We have a clan named "GamingOnLinux", be sure to join it marines!

Keys
If you want a key, simply reply, and the first bunch of people who do will get a PM with a key.
All gone folks.

I will personally be playing some tonight (around 7-8PM UTC time), so feel free to join. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.
