Starfall Tactics is about to have an NPC factions test

Snowforged Entertainment is about to launch a new alpha test for Starfall Tactics, and this time it's going MMO.

The alpha test begins on October 26 and runs through November 5, focusing on the MMO part of the game. Everyone is able to join as long as they register at the official website. It will be mostly to test systems such as NPC Factions, randomly generated missions, ship levels, basic crafting and more. This test marks an important step in the direction of an Early Access release, although Starfall Tactics is admittedly going to be free-to-play.

Here are some examples of what you can do during this Starfall Tactics alpha test:

• Fight against new pirate factions – P.Y.R.A.M.I.D., Screechers and Nebulords
• Complete randomly generated tasks – short missions with rewards
• Level up your ships to get special bonuses
• Craft ships and equipment using new rare resources
• Mine new resources and salvage ship parts
• Capture systems with strategic resources for your faction to get special faction equipment
• Trade with neutral planets
• Check your skills out in Challenges
• And more!
