All of the things you can get away with in other FPS will absolutely not fly in this game. It has a very smart and loyal playerbase. No futuristic guns or jetpacks here. Also, the squeakers know what the hell they're doing. This game will teach you that communication is key in order to win. You'll be lost but if you ask, someone will teach you the basics. Great community.
