War Rock (Korean: 워록) (commonly spelled as WarRock or War Rock) is a multiplayer first-person shooter made by the South Korean company, Dream Execution. The game is distributed as a Free2Play, a common form of freeware EULA and available through online downloading. Like many games, the North American version hosted by K2Network is considered as the International version as it services both North American and European regions. K2Network also supports community input, as it has a community account known as GamersFirst for online transactions.
Though the game can be downloaded free of charge, WarRock requires online registration. The retail version comes with additional features in comparison to the free version. War Rock has low system requirements compared to other contemporary online first person shooters. This gives the game a wider audience, allowing casual gamers and those who do not follow the latest trends in PC gaming hardware to play.
International Versions
The International versions, in contrast to the Korean, Japanese, & Philippine versions, have no blood and knife. K2 Network made this change to the International version so that the ESRB rating system would mark it as a T for Teen, allowing the game to reach a greater audience. Though the International Version does have a knife weapon, the knife does no damage and there is an option to turn off blood.
K2 started closed Beta in 2005 and it became open beta in 2006. K2 ended its beta-testing on January 31, 2007 in preparation for the February 7, 2007 commercial release.[1]
Gameplay
The game is set in the midst of a nuclear war in the fictional Republic of Derberan. The location of Derberan is usually squeezed onto a map of Central Asia between real countries to make it appear more believable. [2] Players select between the two teams and engage in battles using 20th and 21st century military equipment, including a large assortment of infantry weapons and vehicles.[3][4]

War Rock games are divided into three modes of play: Close Quarters Combat, Urban Ops and Battle Group.[5] These differ in the size of the map, the number of respawns permitted and the availability of vehicles, with CQC being focused on small-scale infantry missions and BG involving huge battlefields with some boats, helicopters and jet aircraft.[5] Objectives in the different game modes include capturing and defending key positions on the map, planting explosives on enemy targets, accumulating points in a team deathmatch-style game or a free for all match. For Urban Ops/Battle Group, there is also Conquest mode, making it necessary for each team to capture all the flags in the map, or whittle down the other team's points by taking flags(25 deducted from 999)
