  1. This close to Christmas, Special Forces is probably for the game's most loyal fans only - the folk who have played it so much that they are already desperate for new features to layer upon their already intense online experiences.
  2. Feels more like a tacked-on "fix" for some issues than a true expansion.
  3. A few patches from fun. [Feb 2006, p.72]

    This is the best online game I've ever played. Can't stop playing it. A few bugs distract but don't take away from the game play.

    The rating is simple: For gameplay and fun level this game earns a resounding 10 that is if it works, which is hardly ever a trait that earns it a 0 but..... this is about the quality of the game not the frequency of issues so i cannot blank the original 10 out of the rating this gets a 5, which is still not good, but what do you expect when you unleash bug heaven.

    Well, it's a real shame that once again hackers/cheaters have gotten their hands on this one too. ANYONE who opposes the fact is a cheating loser as well. And to think that these a**holes actually "think" they have any skills whatsoever. NO...YOU ARE NOT ANY GOOD AT ALL. I mean being shot with a silenced 9mm from 200 yds?...ROTFLMAO! The accuracy in this game is already bad enough, but to cheat for stats? Is nothing sacred for those who like fairplay and sportsmanship anymore? Like I said, oppose this and you're a contributing cheat...and ALSO like I said YOU HAVE NO SKILLS STATPADDER good for nothings. Game could have been real great but Punkbuster comes up short. Still unplayable almost due to punks. If you are mature, you realize death is gonna' come for you in this game...plenty. But you guys with major points for nothing, 1 mile kills with a pistol, and shooting through walls all while going undetected is a laugh. You are only good in your own mind, some of us like the satisfaction of actually EARNING our merits. Thanks and good luck and good fortune to all of you who are honest in life's different endeavours and.....GAMES!! :D Expand
