    Here's a video another beta tester made noting the ineffectiveness of rockets (versus a foot soldier):

    >.> I must be the only one that thinks this is like battlefield 2142 and mass effect. Great game so far, the little mini missions are fun. Also the auto lock on feature should help even things out a little when the botters show up. Not being instant killed by snipers for once is a big plus for me. Playing as bwhxeon on servers

    Lol i love killing the VIP.

    He has RIDICULOUS HP, lol. But if you have 3 people just working on him and killing him you can take him out fast. I HATE the convy missions because the teammates dont even know what they are doing.

    I did a VIP mission, before he landed, I placed 4 mini gun sentries around the drop site and another team mate placed 2 sentries, well he kind of died like a fly.

    i think the convoy missions are a lot easier, the truck has good weapon and so far only 2-3 people knows to equip rockets

    btw, i think rockets are meant to be ineffective against infantry, so use them against defenses and armor units. they gave you 2 weapons you know.

    *Uninstalled.

    No modern FPS game should overly assist the snipers class (i.e., permit auto-aiming).

    Installing this thing is killin me!

    First it would not accept key, now it won't accept (any) password.

    I'll go back and try my Gamespy pass word and re-read the install notes.

    Betas!

    It was the GS password!

    How did i miss that! Oh well, delete game, i was hoping for a small single player map, but Game spy just sucks..deleted as well..
