Well, at first I must be honest, I thought it was complete sh*te. I didn't know anyone playing it and no one bothered to actually explain about all the shiznits involved aside from the two basic tutorials. Played it with 3 sorted lads this afternoon for a few hours and I have got into a bit more now and its actually muchos funos. I can't help but think 3 vs 3 would be a lot better but as it stands it is turning out to be quite decent. I need a few people who don't act like morons that play it regularly which shouldn't be too difficult.

So far its been a mixed bag, understand it more now though after realising my radar had been turned off since starting the game.

Will play it a bit more tonight and I am sure my opinion will change again. Enjoying it a lot more now though.

The games designed around not being able to guard EVERYTHING all of the time. If it was 3 Vs 3 it would be much easier to guard the 3 targets Mercs could just back into a corner nearby and wait..

Its nothing to do with how good you are. For the very few games I have played it on it I didn't find it particually difficult just immensly boring.

Exacly. Thats why I really like having a game with Bullett or SpikeCast etc. Its so much more gripping when a good friend is having the sheet kicked out of him by a mercinary and you have to try and help or vice versa.

Great stuff.

You're obvously playing with lepers. I only really play with people on my friends list, the game's all about team work so if your team mate isn't talking then that really isn't a good thing.
