I played it yesterday at a friend of mine. The graphics are truly beautifull, and good music too. But other than that, the gameplay sucked bigtime, and playing became a drag allmost instantly. Sorry talented graphical developers spend there time on such a crappy game.

I must say, playing with the patch, it made gameplay much much better. Now you have around 3 m60's for 12 or 15 guys, and the rest a mix. Teams are more balanced now, and gameplay is more interesting. M60 has horrible recoil unless prone, and the ROF is helluva lot lower to the point where you have to AIM.

However, that dosn't mean everything is fixed. There are still a few issues, but I say that this update helps.
