Don't expect high res graphics and you won't be disappointed. Just keep in mind it's all free and suddenly little problems will magically vanish.

The first multiplayer game to make me completely abandon "Battlefield." In fact I havent played a multiplayer shooter so much since "Quake" and "Tribes."

I really had a ball with it once I got the hang of what everyone was doing after about two hours or so, and once you begin leveling up and get some new toys to play with, it makes it worth your while.
Read Full Review >IGN
The negatives of Enemy Territory are overwhelmed by so many positives in terms of fluidity, solidity, value, graphics (same Wolf coolness but it can look a little old), and good to decent to non-present sound, that it's pretty much undeniable for what it is, free, new, fun.
Read Full Review >PC Gamer
Its complicated missions and gameplay mechanics make Enemy somewhat time-consuming for newcomers to pick up, but the benefits are worth the effort. [Sept 2003, p.79]

First online game I played. Played it since 2003, and spending countless hours on it.
Nate G gave it a10:
I've played them all. All current FPS games, and all old ones. I enjoyed most of them: TF2, Crysis, BF, COD,CS, Quake... None of them lives up to this one. None of them encourages more teamplay and tactical moves than this one. I couldn't find a more fun game than this one since it was released. Best physics best characters, best maps, best voices.
Richard G gave it a10:
One of the baddest experience multiplayer I ever had. The downside is that pro players bragging too much that it will make your head exploded.
Cael Io gave it a10:
The only game I have ever played that kept me coming back for more. I'd still be playing if I could find any decent servers.
Lupus gave it a10:
One of the greatest MFPS of all time. It's more addictive than smoking, (quitted smoking, but not ET, lol) more fun than any other MFPS out there, even today after 6 years. Someone below is playing with bots that can snipe you with a pistol from 1km away, and rated it only 2. Play in the serious servers, with adult players and you can get upgrades normally. I've played COD and BF series, Quake and Unreals, still none is so addictive. and it's FREE.
Frank D gave it a10:
Excellent game, teamwork is utilized well in the game, and the class based objectives adds that bit of thinking to the game that sets it above most run and gun shooters
Tilman J gave it a10:
In my opinion this is still the best online - shooter (apart from RtCW, which this is based on), for three reasons: 1) Very little limitations like slow movement, bobbing, recoil, weapon spread, instead you have fast movement and can strafe - jump like in most games with the quake 3 - engine, plus the weapons are very accurate from the hip, while you need three headshots for a kill. Thats both very fun and challenging, I prefer it to the simple "point & klick" or "spray & pray" of most modern shooters anytime. Nowhere else will you have such intense close combat duels, when you encounter an equally good player, while fragging n00bs is still more fun then in other shooters, because of the three headshots - thing. This also makes the random factor very small, since one lucky shot will not kill you. 2) The combination of objectives and classes creates a very tight teamplay and intense rounds, when both teams struggle to the last. 3) Infinite diversity, through the combination of the objective - oriented gameplay and thousands of custom maps. In one map you fight your way forward on two rolling trains ("trooptrain"), in another you have to escape with a tank through a bombed town ("xposed"), in a third map both teams fight on a gigantic basketball field and have to try to bring gold - boxes from the middle of the field via a jump - pad into the opponents basket ("golden dunk"). No game with 8 - 12 different gamemodes comes nowhere near that kind of diversity. A shame that for a lot of people "for free" equals "worthless", they don't know what they miss. I play this for four years now, and will play this for two more, by then the new "Wolfenstein" should be out, and if that isn't as good as W:ET, W:ET live might finally succeed W:ET. Gameplay is king, but if you can also have nice(r) graphics along with some other updates...
