A reveiw from a vet. fps player...

Now, most people think this game is subpar because of a few things. I'll explain these first.

People will start in the game, pick their faction, (most of the time they start in a Law Enforcement Department(LED) role or a Freedom Defence Corp.(FDC)) then their apartment, usually a allied apartment. Now, they'll walk outside of their apartment, thinking to see a group of friendlies standing and helping them, but when they vort in, they are either greeted by a raiding faction, or just empty space. Turned off of the game slightly, they start spamming main faction chan. trying to figure out what to do. Someone tries to tell them, but they either don't listen, or do it wrong and then stop playing. Trust me, if you are new, just stick it out and ask questions in your factions main chan. If you picked a good starting, (I recomend CMG or BoS, although I am BoS!! DOWN WITH CMG) you'll get some help.

Now from my point of veiw, this game is great. Although, there are a few flaws in the fighting, makeing it now have much of a feel of a fps at times. The squirlyness of the aim throws off even experienced fps player. But then again, it does reduce the problem of people being able to gank a group of 5 because they are just a better player.

The reason this game sticks out, and intrests me the most is, the tactics that are involved. I know no other fps game where tactics are used so much. Also this game has the feeling of brotherhood in your faction, causeing people to want to play more often, just to help out if not anything eles.

One other thing, missions. They actually make you want to do something, never once is there "go out and kill X amount of rats and bring back X amount of hides" instead there is, "The CMG have taken Pax Prime, we must retake at all costs. Long live the brootherhood!"(bad example but i can't think of one.)

In short, this game will get better by the time beta ends, and it is allready an insanely inventive and fun game. Which is needed in today's market of mmo's.

Can you elaborate more on these tactics? Give us an idea of what the game is all about. Tell us what FoM has that other games lack and elaborate on that as well.
