I got in on the test once or twice, and I can say it's not for me. I'm a soloer. I'm the guy that runs in and caps the flag while the rest of the team is duking it out in the hall, but this game is like a game of Tribes 2 (minus the jetpacks) on a 64 player server. There's no way someone can solo, casue once you get into an area where there is a team trying to hold a base, there's like 15 on them in there. And this isn't quake where one player can rape a dozen other players that are slightly less good than him. If you don't get the drop on someone, you're going to take at least a little damage. This game is going to be all about team play, and unfortunately that's not my thing. Not if the game had VOIP with your squadmates, then it'd maybe a different story.
