The game is great!! once you get a feel for the maps, and figure out where to go, the game instantly improves!!

Its good to follow guys who know what they are doing and learn from there. . . .

The maps are some of the best I have ever seen in ANY game I have played!! The sounds are awesome, gfx are incredible (source engine is awesome), there are some bugs, but overall a fantastic mod!! I cant believe this game is free for how good quality it is!!

The only gripe I have really is the insurgent voice overs. . . . .cmon guys insurgents dont speak english lol!! But its cool when you throw a grenade and you say "allah akbar!"
I'm pretty sure there's a way to change the insurgent voices to arabic or something, but I can't remember the exact technique.

It took a bit, and my K/D still is not even close to 1:1, but I'm enjoying the game a lot more now.

A few tips:

- Stick together, damnit. You CAN NOT take points with less than 3-5 people
- Take Points, damnit. For the love of god, marines, do you damn job and capture points!
- Use VOIP. Generally, voip works better in HL2 than BF2 -- use it! Also, find a server with TeamChat, not AllChat
- Pause at corners and peak.
- Hold points and wait for reinforcements to bolster your moving unit.
- Run n' Gun == death. As a marine, all you're doing is wasting spawns, stop it damn you.
- Cover with smoke. It really helps, as it turns out, to cover an advance.
- Find Cover. Always. In BF2 you can bounce around after taking fire and make it -- that won't work here. No cover == dead soldier.

Also, if you're really eating it, make a local and start exploring the maps. I know 3 of them so far and they are much more fun now that I know the encounter points.

OFT, if the marines dont stick together they will lose every time....

The mod is super-buggy at this point -- really beta 1 is not an inaccurately title.

Oh so later on I should expect the game to run with a much better FPS on my system? Par with HL2 or so?

What kind of bugs make it disruptive?

Server crash bug. If someone crouch or walk above a prone person, server crashes.

There are bugs, but the game is indeed playable. WHoever said you cant be good at it just plain sucks.  Despite the beta issues if you know what you're doing you will play well.

BTW, i get like 50fps indoors and 30ish outdoors, and i have a SICK DX9 rig.  The fps issues are known by the INS dev team, they were caused by last minute changes to teh code before release.  They should be resolved in the next patch which is in teh works now.
