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.

More to the point, what a compeltely strange game I have just had with Spikecast. Didn't hear him speak and the game was just compeltely boring.

Decided that I'd played enough hide and seek for one night, and allowed my Brother to continue his LMA game.

Just been playing SC:PT with J42, Ali and some random french guy, and it's kinda summed up all of my feelings about the online section of this damn game.

Being a Mercenary. Hopelessly planting mines, and running around, desperately seartching for something to shoot and kill. Second guessing where your opponent could be, praying that your rival just might be in Building x. Then finding out he's in the Library, and a place named 'Building X' was a pretty stupid place to look.

Then, finally, you find your opponent (yes, it CAN actually happen sometimes), and one of two things either happen:

-You kill your opponent
-You get smacked/shocked/killed

Either way, you're left alone, looking for an opponent.

If you like long waits, hopeless running around, and general bordom, then I highly recommend being a Merc on SC:PT.
