Bugs, frame drops, poor map design, generally baffling game choices, and a severe lack of care all make this entry a plethora of good ideas, thrown together in a blender that just didn't work out for a multiplayer game. The weapon progression system is a novel idea that could be done in a better game, for better results. As it stands, even just playing this on the free beta was the most fun only in DMZ, which has its own fair share of issues revolving around balance choices, and yet more problems getting the game to run stable. Plus as usual, you've got your casual as hell folks like me, continually being feasted upon by the sweat-swamp people who 24/7-356 the game, because the idiotic matchmaking system sees you do well in one match, so clearly you need to be playing against them without ever having an 'even out' phase. You'll either swing to folks who don't understand what a firearm is, or the people who will eat you alive. No middle ground.
