F2P FPS
Pros: Free,
Easy to learn,
Reasonably good graphics,
Low system requirements,
Fast-paced action,
Variety of weapons/veichles,
Well designed maps,
3 (will soon be 4) different game modes,
Some teamwork with various classes (but not much),
Great community/forums.
Cons: I have played this game since the beginning of open beta, and have to say that the retail version as a bit of a disappointment. First of all, instead of fixing the lag problem, K2 made its quite a bit worse. I used to be able to play this game at HIGH settings with dynamic lighting and shaders ENABLED. However, now I am reduced to playing the game at LOW-MEDIUM settings with the effects DISABLED.
Retail updates such as the map restrictions (certain maps require a P2P membership)and weapon level requirements are very unwelcome IMO; for example, K2 made the map 'Harbour Ida' (probably the most popular map during open beta) for members only. However, F2P players are allowed to join the room once a member has created and chosen that map. Also, weapons such as my personal favourite, the P90, have very high level requirements (lvl 16); this is quite frustrating as it took me quite a while to get to this level during open beta.
Well, its still a great game; I'm just hoping that K2 opens the forums to let in the multitude of complaints and suggestions from their concerned players and community. Once these problems are fixed, Warrock will once again be, in my eyes, an excellent first-person shooter.
