Wow! Just played my first online game and I am impressed!

You have to earn experience to unlock different game modes (as well as TONS of customization features), so all I was able to really participate in was "Anarchy" which is your typical Deathmatch.

But... Wow! There are a lot of different (Back)Packs you can put on in the course of the match all with AWESOME effects:

  • Jetpack -- Just as it sounds; fly through the air.
  • Fleetfeet -- Become really zippy on the ground.
  • Rhino -- Charge through walls, obstacles and --especially-- other players!
  • Tremor -- Shake the ground and bring down the building on your enemies! COOL!
  • Heal -- Get burst of, well, healing --or-- when playing on a team, heal your mates
  • Stealth -- Go all Predator on your foes butts and cloak!
  • X-Ray -- Spot all of your enemies, everywhere; even the cloaked ones!
  • Propulsion -- Burst straight up, going through ceilings and everything/one else in your way --OR-- slam yourself downwards!
  • Concussion -- Sonic waves push your enemies and debris away from you!

There are many different game modes I was able to view tutorial movies about: You have modes with Capture Points you need to keep to earn points; Modes where you do as much damage to your enemies base as you can; Destructor is where one of your teamates is chosen to be the ONLY one who can destroy things -- you must protect your Destructor while hunting the enemies... and many, many others...!

Not having played them yet, I can't do them justice by trying to describe them here --BUT-- one thing I saw that was VERY cool was a Reconstructing Gun where you rebuild structures and your capture points, etc. Watch the incredible destruction engine --IN REVERSE-- ! ! !

I am typically NOT an online player but this was SERIOUSLY addictive! Blending the best of Team Fortress, Red Faction, CoD, Gears of War among many, many others REALLY brings all of the features of this game together --SUPERBLY-- ! ! !

Wow!
