Game Description

Players started off with a free, cheap Mechanaught. Credits were used to purchase new parts, weapons, and skills, or secondary items such as repair points or paint and acquired through the various game modes. Some parts were purchased with real money via the NCcoin micropayment system. Most items in the game were purchased using credits or NCcoins. Most items in the game were bought for a time-limit or, for a higher price, a level of durability. If the time limit or the durability points of the item ran out, then the item was lost and had to be repurchased or the item had to be repaired, respectively. Durability was based on the time that a player spent in game, whereas time-limit was based on the length of time after an item was purchased, regardless of whether or not a player actively played the game. The rate at which durability of items was lost was dependent on the price of the item, with cheaper items losing durability at a slower rate than more expensive items. For all items, the time-limit was 7 or 30 days, depending on the item. Durability of items was restored by using repair points, which could be purchased with credits. Repair points were the only items in the game that did not have durability or a time-limit, and the player could keep the repair points until they were used.
