Since I've played AFF:Planetstorm a bit several years ago, does this still uses Unreal 3 engine?

It does use the UE3 engine now. After UE4 was released, they were finally able to get UE3 access. It used to be on UDK.

This reminds me of BF2142's Titan mode, but looks much better. I hope my expectations are not too high! :nyam:
