yup what ness said, the 1.0/1.1 days were way more fun since it actually needed skill to be played, atleast melee, now you just need to fly up to someone and you can whore the same combos over and over, well this will change in 1.3 with the stanima bar, but still i dont like the arrow fighting, it does have a dbz feeling to it but it just makes the game boring IMO =\ and waaaaay to newbie-friendly
After 1.3 gets released, ESF will most likely be alot more populair than now, but i think not so long after it (a few months...a year and a half at most) it will slowly start to die because of the half life engine...i mean...in one year from now, the first game on the unreal 3 engine will be released and the half life engine will....well....be nothing compared to it and only the true-hardcore-esf fans will continue to play the game,...
