Its excellent.  Best AI in an FPS game that I've seen.

I really enjoy the multiplayer. Not to mention this game is very pretty. I "used" to play the Urban Terror mod for quake 3. Not anymore.

Awesome game.  The campaigns are tough and the AI's are fairly intelligent.  Multiplayer is the tops though.  My Ghost Recon/Raven Shield squad, *IQ* Squad, has a dedicated T1 server if interested.  Problem is it's very popular now and hard to get on.

My favorite weapon combo in the game is the Steyr TMP and the FN 5-7.  The only thing that makes me a little bit edgy is the horrible netcode.....seriously.  50 ping and  guys are warping everywhere.

I personally hate  the cmags. Theres no need for a secondary weapon now. No rush the enemy when they reload strartegy like we had in the older titles. This version needs some revisions along with the netcode.

Yah.. most should disable the c mags.

We've been running a server and haven't seen much in the way of net problems.  We do co-op mostly with 40 enemy.

It did take an act of congress to get the server up behind a win2k shared internet connection.  Gotta love absolutely zero documentation on port forwarding for that one.  I also love that they expect you to forward port 80 for this game.  Bwahahaha.  I think I'll stick to IP connections.
