Yes, I realise some of you have been playing it for moons. But meh.
Aye, I think it's great. Was a sort-of fan of the first, but this is quite great.
The ragdoll physics add so much to it - and it's particularly wonderful when someone gets nailed by the explosion of the bomb.
I like it.

Some guys I was playing with last night were accusing the other side of cheating but I think they were only joking.
I wouldn't really know if they were though - being a n00b a headshot out of nowhere is not an uncommon thing for me.

I noticed this too. I've never seen anyone with an "online" status, and I've added all the SR monkeys that have posted their usernames to the list. ;)
Love the game though. I take it the cheating issues that plagued the original are gone? I've never got a headshot from a guy using a single pistol when I'm no more than a speck yet....

Never really played any online games but this is awesome - spent all weekend playing it, Half-Life 2 has had to wait.
de_dust owns, but all the maps are pretty good.
Lots of people - get an smg, find the biggest conflict areas and rack up kills.
Few people - grab a sniper, hunt down your enemy.
I love the way it's a completely different game depending on how many people there are. Shame the friends thing doesn't really work though.

You can refine the searches so you can find pings under 100 which are highly playable. I usually get pings of around 30-40 on average for the servers I join.

The netcode's not brilliant.
Much lag?
Still not my favourite, and still prone to the same problems that made me dislike the game the first time around, but now there's been a sudden rise in newbie players, which finally means I can get a decent score. Graphics and Physics are also, excellent.
Yeah, my favourite online game quite simply ever.
Love it.
Love it.
I spent a good amount of time on it today. I'm still crap at the whole trying to kill people thing. But I'm good with strategy and getting behind enemies :D
Just spent 4 hours on it. marvelous.
