Overview

Altitude is a multiplayer dogfighting game with persistent RPG elements common in other multiplayer games. The game is intended to be played online on servers of up to 16 vs. 16, although an offline 3 vs. 3 practice mode against bots is available. The game features no campaign or storyline. Players can choose 1 out of 5 possible unlockable planes that can be customized with different perks. As players continue to play, they gain experience through common actions and can gain levels. These levels unlock new perks. With every perk unlocked, there are over 240 possible plane combinations to use. The game also has unlockable skins for the planes that can be unlocked by using Community Points (CP). Players can gain CP by installing a Facebook application, joining the Altitude Steam group, purchasing the game directly from the developer, or referring friends. Altitude's max level is 60. Upon reaching level 60, it is possible to return to level 1 and become an "Ace", similar to the Veteran system in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. All unlocked perks will become locked again. For the first five "Ace" ranks, players will receive an additional slot for saving a plane loadout.
