Foxtrot opens for play for "casuals"

Nexon America announced the launch of a new server for their MMOFPS, Combat Arms today. The new server is named Foxtrot and is for new players only, with rank and kill to death ratios that must be met in order to load in on it. Several new weapons were added into the RMT "Black Market" for players who seek to enhance their gaming experience with real world cash.

From the official release:

Combat Arms, with more than three million registered users, has new players rapidly joining the ranks of the fast-paced game every day. To help ease the adjustment into the twitch-based game play, new players (derisively called noobs) can play against one another on Foxtrot, the new casual server. To enter the casual server, players must have a kill-death ratio (KDR) lower than 0.80 and be ranked Private First Class or higher. Those who do take advantage of this new server will also acquire a slight EXP and GP bonus for matches completed.

“We feel like the casual server, Foxtrot, is another way for us to keep Combat Arms as accessible as possible,” said Combat Arms producer Graham Kays. “If you’re a new player who is still learning, jump into the casual server to face others with similar skill level.”

Nexon also introduced several new weapons into the Black Market, the game’s real-money item shop. Five new weapons are available in the Black Market, while a new rocket launcher can be acquired through Gear Points, the in-game currency collected through playing Combat Arms. This new RPG will be available for players ranked Sergeant First Class 2 and higher.
