This is only the demo but it looks pretty good! The flight sim is somewhat to be desired but all around battle is pretty intense:D

Tried it but haven't been able to select anything but foot slogger or armor. Where are the planes?

That is the crappyest online game I've ever had the chance to try.

Full of bugs and the net code is horrible. CTD's, lag, rubber bullets (and I mean RUBBER shooting a guy from 1 meter to the head 20 times no effect) you name it. Not to mention you fly with mouse only and require to keep W depressed to move forward lol.

Sure its pretty, but that's all it is.

I'd say so-so

Full of bugs

False. ran almost perfectly. nothing more than a CTD or 2.

True

True. A guy with a bazooka has more chances at defeating the tank than else in close range.

False! Get your control setup working! I play with the WASD/mouse, fly with the stick, it all works ok.

I read a review or preview of this game-then i saw it was listed under 'action' -that means no flight model whatsoever :) and it also means I won't try it.

Hey Udet, I've got another helpful hint on how you can save time.  When looking for books to read, make your entire purchasing decision based on whether or not you like the artwork on the cover.

Ooh, and to save time dealing with people, just put together a helpful list of preconceptions about each of the major races (eg, black, hispanic, etc) and just use those when dealing with them.  This will save you the hassle of having to listen to them.
