    I read it.

    Here is my view:

    - Graphics: Don't care as long as it isn't like watching a game through a siew.
    - Sounds: Dont care as long as it doesn't contain some high pitched constant sound.
    - Level design: The maps are great IMO, nothing wrong with them.
    - Control. Tcommand menu is quite a bit clumsy, but otherwise the layout is pure genius (just wait to you get used to the hive sight)
    - Attack Balance: Of course this needs balancing after all it is the first public release.
    - Replay: Great. The game don't make for 4 hours of playtime in a row like cs, but it is a lot more diverse than cs.
    - Feel: Very spooky playing as an marine, and as an alien you geet to scare marines. Wouldn't want it any other way. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
    - Aftermath: The game isn't supposed to be easy to learn, duh. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I'd personally give it 9 or 9.5 out of 10 (10/10 is pretty much impossible as far as I am concerned)

    I think a problem I have with it is one of its selling points, lol.
    Ok, to be clear:
    The game is like an RTS for the COmmander! Command your squad of marines to victory!

    Now, I feel like a Marine in Starcraft. Yes, those cannon fodder things. I feel that, no matter how good I am, it wont matter. <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='asrifle.gif'><!--endemo--> > <!--emo&::skulk::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/skulk.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='skulk.gif'><!--endemo-->

    That's what I've learned. This bugs me slightly.

    All in all though, it got high considering my other reviews <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Interestingly enough, being compared to a starcraft unit is a plus selling point for me.

    Because I know, no matter what I do, or how poorly I fight... I'm still smarter than the unit AI in starcraft.

    Some of my teammates I wonder about though. Especially that one fellow that was banging his head into the armory screaming "GISCVE MWE A WEPON!!!11". Guess the combat finally got to him, poor guy.

    Yeah, Im pretty **obscenity** sick and tired of hearing this the SECOND a guy joins:
    "cmdr i ned a hvy armr hvy mg ammo"

    To everyone of you morons out there... if I am EVER Commander and you do that - Congratulations! You wont EVER get health or ammo or guns or armour, or any help from me!
