Reader's Guide

Midair features mechanics similar to games from the Tribes game series, including 'skiing' which allows the player to glide across the terrain. A 3/4/5 weapons system similar to Starsiege: Tribes and Tribes 2 is implemented; 3 weapons for Light armor, 4 weapons for Medium armor, and 5 weapons for Heavy armor. There is no health regeneration in the game. The game features the ability to equip certain abilities and items, as well as the ability to modify the game using certain 'packs' (such as health regeneration, cloaking, etc.). The features include the deployment of moving and non-moving entities such as vehicles and stationary sentries. Game modes currently include Capture the Flag, Light Capture the Flag, Arena, and Rabbit. Public matches consist of team-sizes similar to Tribes: Ascend's 16v16, while competitive team sizes vary between 5v5 and 11v11, depending on the game mode. Midair features an unlock system and a progression system. As players progress, they will unlock items such as weapons, packs, items, and deployable structures. Players have the option of buying a DLC, which unlocks all current and future items. Cosmetic items must be purchased separately.
