I strongly recommend this game to anyone who needs their FPS fix and are also waiting for GA. It's a mix of halo and battlefield with a lot of complexity as to how you play the game. There's a rank system but there's no unlocks as opposed to Battlefield ( might be some aesthetic changes once it hits release but it's debatable) It's really hard to play at first since it's very different from other FPS'. It took me almost a day's worth of play to really get the gist of it. There's only 2 maps but there's about 16 once it hits release.

Yeah it takes a lot of teamwork, although I keep getting idiots on my team, can't stand them.


I'm getting shot and they start looking away or do something really dumb and I die, then my team member finally reacts and gets the kill.

Couple of my buds have tried it out. Don't think that I'm going to though... Maybe, I think I'm going to just stick to my regular fps'.

Have you messed around with the passive modules? They give you more armor and shields/ damage / lock on timers, that's why some people take more / less damage, and as far as taking more damage when close range, the machine gun  and shotgun completely annihilate anyone at close rage, the assault rifle is good all around though ( my first choice as far as weapons go )

I've got 4 Repair modules, 4 armor plates and 2 anvil rounds, works great.

Yeah you should, I liked so much when I played it for the very first time, it's a quite good futuristic fast-paced fps where a well organized team can stand out from rest easily, winning almost everything! hehe.
