Mad Max's enemy bases tell you how hard they are, with Top Dog camps for boss fights

Having finally seen a decent chunk of Mad Max gameplay in yesterday's trailer, we're finally getting an idea of the open world action it's offering. Now producer John Fuller has been explaining a little more about how you'll be facing down the desert.

Yesterday's gameplay trailer set up an open world that lets you drive, explore, scavenge and fight pretty much how you want. Part of that includes taking on larger bases, briefly hinted at towards the end of the trailer. Fortunately, you'll be able to shape your experience to some extent, avoiding or seeking out the harder camps thanks to way they telegraph their potential challenge.

So, while there's a challenge in the world it's up to you to some extent to decide just how much. “The wasteland is treacherous and it’s a hostile place," says Fuller. "You will feel that. But you’ll be equipped to deal with it. We want to allow you to make choices, and if you consistently choose to go in gung-ho without preparing yourself then obviously you can give yourself a very hard gaming experience". He also adds that "it’s not a survival horror that punishes you at every turn".
