I started playing it last week. I think its great for the first release. Its not something I would play for hours and hours on end, only because everything is moving so fast and that can be annoying at times. But I am pretty happy with it so far. I mean it seems somewhat balanced atleast to me, just hate the constant Knight stacking but you cant avoid that kinda stuff.

Yay fixes, I'm glad about the chest picking up, we would have guys on our team throw our own chests away and then switch teams.

I learned yesterday that you can play HL2 mods with any Source game.
I tried PVKII now. It's pretty cool hack n slash, but there's no teamwork. Brings Dark Messiah MP to my mind.

I have the installer too, but most of the other guys are leaving this weekend. I'll try it out for a bit though.

hmm.........is it worth calling the HL people to prove that my copy of HL2 is original and then re installing the game on my desktop after i reinstall the corrupted OS and trubbleshoot the ram (if it is still causing problems) then downloading patches and mods????????
