hehe, you do realise this is total crap? no, well let me point out something. In the 64 player servers, where naziz defend, allies always lose, why? coz they dont get one tnt planted becose tnt spots are always under support fire. i played it for some time and its always the same.

I'm playing the Army game regularly. That one's free and pretty damn high quality. I'm starting to get better, finally.
Me for the first week...

there are still quite a few servers out there (amazing for a game that's like 2 years old). I can usually find one with a ping of <150ms. There seems to be some sort of lag compensation thing going too, cuz you don't have to lead for ping (only movement/distance).
I like the game. It's a great deal of blasting pleasure. Every once in a while I'll get lucky and mow through like 4/5 people before getting capped.

Almost all servers are US ones. from EST to US is a loooong distance . Why cant they invent somesorta cheap and effective IS. crappy ping is my biggest enemy, right next to Elion (previous Estonian Telephone).

well, if and when they get the IP over power grid thing sorted out, maybe you'll have your wish. I can't wait for that... I've read stuff hinting at gigabit internet connections for $20/month. I'm pretty sure the existing monopolies won't allow that to happen, though.

yep, 100% free, paid for by my tax dollars. I'm impressed the Army managed to turn out a game of such high quality. Hopefully they'll come out with sequels when the graphics start getting antiquated (that'll be awhile).
