To be honest to this day I can't come to understand what people saw and still seeing in BFP. Maybe because it was one of first DBZ mods, I don't know...
I remember how few years ago when finally I got my connection to Internet, I searched DBZ games and come across to BFP... I was excited at beginning, but after running it I was dissapointed. Most models was crap (I knew it even when I didn't know difference between bad and good ones yet), gameplay was meh... I mean it was too fast, required almost no skill or strategy (maybe this is reason why it's such popular). I prefer classic shooters over it... I played few times and deleted it. No I didn't hate it, it just that game have nothing which would be keep playing and this is worse thing for multiplayer. It's becoming boring very quickly especially for people who searching advanced game, not just big beams anf flashy FX which can make you blind.
ESF is ten times better. I know this mod since 2003 and i'm still here to follow progress. That means something isn't it ?
