Eh, i was in the beta, It was really cool for about 2 1/2 weeks, then i got really bored of it, too redundant. The point of the game is just to take over enemy bases, it's all PVP, no single player plot or mini-quests. It's allright at first but i dont think it's worth the money.

Waste of money. Great idea taking into the world of MMO an FPS based idea, but it's very redundant.

I got bored within 1 week. 12.95 a month? Screw that.

The only good FPS to make it out to MMORPG will be World of Warcraft, Starwars Galaxies, or another everquest.

I'm looking forward to the first 2.

It is THE MOST FUN THING IN THE WORLD.

Until you do everything there is to do.

I was in beta as well, my thoughts are the same as the others for the most part.
It's really fun, and great, but it gets boring too fast strangely. I would have expected more time to enjoy it.
You rarely worked alone, which meant trying to find a group, waiting for everyone to get to your position, and get on the transport. Then you had to travel there, and at times it was nearly a stalemate battle inside of bases.
The vehicles are great, but for the most part I found them to not be that useful except the planes. When you tried to capture something, you had to be inside of the building to do so, and that meant leaving the vehicle. They had mobile armor suits (max's) that couldn't hack the base, but killed any ground unit not wearing a max basically, as well as taking out vehicles sometimes.
It could be extremely fun, and you may enjoy it, but for the most part I wouldn't expect more than a few months at most.

i was in the beta too. i agree with the above and id like to add there's also no point. cap'd a whole continent? GREAT! too bad it doesnt mean anything, u just keep invading more bases and so forth. 2 weeks of fun so cash in on a free month if they're offering one.

yeah the game is nice, but gets boring after a while. and had VERY LOW FPS on it. sometimes had 2 FPS, loads of firefights on the screen, its very laggy. they could have added more stuff imo. like personal quests, since its completely team-based all the time.
