Counter-Strike co-creator Minh Le revealed Tactical Intervention a few years ago, a PC-based online multiplayer FPS that uses a free-to-play business model. Fans now have an official release window to look forward to: spring 2012. The game will be published by OGPlanet, Neowin reports, with a beta coming next month. You can sign up for that on the newly launched official website.
A teaser trailer (above) highlights the game's varied approach to online action while a press release describes some of the things you can expect to do in the tactical, team-based FPS: "Players will get behind the driver's seat, shoot hanging out of vehicle passenger windows, call in attack dogs, and even make use of tactical rappel ropes to gain the upper hand on the opposing force. They will also have to be conscious of civilians who can be taken as hostages and used as human shields."
Sounds neat. Note that to sign up for the beta you'll need to have (or create) a valid OGPlanet account.

it's ment for the competitive crowd, not the casual gamers. I'm glad they aren't a sell out like activision did with CoD.

SWAT 4! An Irrational Games classic. That game was way ahead of its time. Four-player co-op, random enemy/hostage placements, multiple points of entry for each mission, special rewards for non-lethal play and adhering to actual police procedure. I would happily wait a little longer for BioShock Infinite if it meant another SWAT game from Irrational.

It looks really old and generic. the radio chater reminded me of a game called SWAT that I use to love back in the day.
