There is only one way in describing this game: stunning. Nothing less, nothing more. It's just... so fun, and entertaining, doesn't get old (although I've only been playing it 4 hours non-stop).

The graphics are just SO crisp, clean textures -- the gun models look amasing. The sound engulfs you... you can hear gunfire from all the way across the map in a toned-down type of way. The ragdolls are perfect as they catch air if they get hit with a rocket, or slump if shot.

There are some balancing issues... mainly with the Riflemen. I don't think they should be more powerful, but the reload times for the two sides are seriously drastic. The Axis has to cock after each shot, while the Allied can just keep firing. The Riflemen, as a class, is so deadly: the accuracy with the rifle (even when strafing) and the long range/explosive grenade, although I wish it'd explode faster.

The rest of the classes are fine, although a camper with the machine gun is a bad combo.

Overall, I'll probably be playing this over a lot of other games for a long time.

A little note about the lag, it's not the game, it's smacktards that think they can host a server from their own PC. I just played on a dedicated server... lag free.

Beaucse they are different types of rifle and work some what differently, tbh the axxis one is better, always has been.

It used to go Enfield > K98 > Garand for me, but on source it seems to be Garand > K98. Both seem to get one hit kills just as much, as the K98 leaves people with slivers of health now.
