Just had a little trundle round it and it appears to be a cross between CS:S and BF2. :g:  Jury's out atm.

hard to tell between a friend and a foe;
no radar/map;
can't exactly understand what's going on;
hate the function of the different keys (I know I can change them, but stil).
 
Would love if someone took me to a server and showed me around.

Finally started to get a grip of what's going on. I think every1 should get a "tutor" to walk them through a map, lol.
 
The "hard to tell friend from foe" is, I guess, an outcome of the MOD being a "Reality MOD".
Basically, you have to concur objectives by occupying them, together with a friend or two, and then protect it or move to the other objective, until you concur them all.
The thing is, that cooperation and planning is of the essence, as you can have different tactics for defending, pushing forward, etc. And since it is possible to get to each objective from several routes - it's interesting.
In every map I have tried (well, in the three I understand at least), you have always possible sniping positions, several covers etc.
 
It is actually nice to see a cover that realy supplies you with cover, not as in the CSS :-) where an AK penetrates almost anything.
So you have real decisions to make (if you are into that): should we have a sniper on the roof or should all players use Shotguns/AKs in order to push forward ASAP? Should we devote a player to an RPG in order to block the opposite? Is this the right time to call for support?
 
Anyhow, it is important that the commander (if any1 chooses to be) will know the map, as he designate the next positions for his team and this is very helpful 'cause you see it on the compass.
 
For example, had dMw played as a 6 players team for instance, vs. 6 other dMws or others, Sadako (assuming only a Dr. is eligible to command :-) ) could decide that:
2 will occupy Alpha immediately; 3 will rush to Bravo to occupy it; and 1 RPG will fire on Charlie to give the opposite a hard time. Voice comms works nicely.
 
Players can change their weapon and role during the game (although the mechanism is not completely clear to me yet), and naturally can run around freely with out any commander.
