A very community-oriented game, with charming graphics and low system requirements to play.
The game is still in Open Beta, so there is still more content to come. A new map has been added recently, for example. Players also have the option of checking out the PTE (Player Test Enviroment), where you can test upcoming patches on a test server and give feedback.
There are persistent levels and ranks which give access to more Abilities, most of which are unique to each class (Gunner, Soldier, Commando). I was quite addicted for a week or so - there are some balance issues but they are being addressed next update.
My Heroes thingy is JimJamJ4m1e and I manly play Royals. I definitely reccommend it be checked out if you haven't seen it already.
Last thing - if any of you Closed Beta testers don't play anymore, please please please don't let those redeem codes go to waste; post them here!
Almost always seems to be stacked against the Royals too. I think that's one of the darker sides of the internet, people seem to favour the Nazi-like wassnames, simply because they can.
I do know my Sniper became much easier to rack up sprees with once I had the cloak maxed. You can actually kill somebody and then escape without being gank'd.
The Matchmaking thing is supposed to keep that to a minimum by matching players with similar skill level together. It does this by comparing your ELO, which is basically how good you are at killing higher-level players. The higher your ELO, the more challenging your game should be.
Also, about the odds being stacked against Royals -- it's more like most of the kiddies and people with IQ under 20 go Royals, myself included. Hang in there - my win/loss ratio is 1/1, at the end of the day Nats and Royals are pretty much equally matched.
