If you are going to play warez, live w/ it.

No what I mean is I DID pay 50 for a game that I can only play multiplayer with. I'll try No CD thingy, my friend knows it.

GroovyAsh, any chance you're running an NForce2 board with Windows XP?

If anything, they should make it more realistic, somewhat like DoD where you can kill someone in one shot with several different weapons.

A head shot is a one shot kill. It also has location based damage, like Soldier of Fortune. You're not going to kill a guy instantly by hitting him in the arm.

Personally, I really like the realism. It's starting to feel like your participating in a movie instead of playing a game (somewhat).

Yeah I like it alot, Best game I have played to date. I like playing team deathmatch on server with 30 or people ;)

My mistake, I assumed you ment you only wanted it for the single player, and so justified downloading it. :) Sorry about that.

My daughters computer does the same thing on other games. Install from CD, CD is in the drive, but the game still can't find CD. Finally a firmware update on her CD drive (plextor 40/12/40A) fixed it.

It would be realistic if you died and never came back. But for the most part its pretty good.

Are there any public online servers for this game? Also, do you need a unique key to play online if so?

Looks like a good game, I might have to buy it!
