Please Place Your Comments about the Game and if we need a server. I quite like the game and have only found 2 servers available which give sub 100 pings. 1 of these is EISA. Please only comment if you have actually played the game!

I played an early beta and it was pretty fun, was reading about the new beta on planethalflife last night and some of the stuff like the slides sound pretty caw :) Dunno if it would have much lasting appeal though, at its base level its just a deathmatch mod.

Tribes 2 has more bugs than a museum! There any many different play modes in Action Half-Life, Long Lastability, and the server admins don't need to buy anything 'cause it's just a mod.

Another is definately needed. there are normally 3 servers with decent pings and a decent amount of players. 8 players just isnt enough

i played action half-life last night for teh FIRST TIME and won 3 maps in a row, agaisnt peopel that had supposedly played for a lgon tiem and were pretty damn good. my point? its a game taht requires little skill. you die so easily taht everyone camps their arses off. its a really slutful game once there are good snipers in there, once i got decent with the semi-auto sniper rifle it was reallly easy to rack up frags.

now don't get me wrong, its a fun game, but i don't really see it as much fo a mod and would rather see a server devoted to front line force or oen of the other polished and in depth mods. ahl just seems like somthign that is kinda fun but ultimately pretty stupid.

hit's a bugger you didn't like the game Axis.

i've found many points in this beta that require adjustment too. (1st being that grossly overpowered shotty).

i liked it enough to play it for over an hour, but i also thought there were enouhg gameplay flaws to stop it from being good enough to come back to regularly.

i thin kwhen you have just total deathmatch with such a severe damage system and wildly inaccurate guns it just becomes a bit frantic and silly, and you eitehr camp, or you risk getting kiled easily no matter hwo good you are.

i mean, you die more easily in this than in cs right? but wheni see and enemy i crouch and fire with the colt, and they wont go down, the colt is spastic, its recoil is rediculous, and its hard to tell where tht bullets are actualy going. its ust dumb to have a rifle recoil that badly when compared to the shotgun that never missed the crosshair, or other weapons that really should be inferior but come out on top simply cause of their lack of recoil.

i dunno, that's how it seemd to me, though i would be prepared to admit that i need to play it more thoroughly first. but basically wheni played, i figured colt would be good, i gave that up and ran roudn with a silenced mp5 and just did the jumpy jump spa thing and it totally owned, then i switched to the semi auto sniper rifle, it doesn't always hit on target but its accurate enoguh that it mostly does, and its fire rate is quick enough that you usually get to take another shot if you miss. so that owned aswell.

grenades are so overpowered, whenever someoen chucked a grenade at mei could NEVER get away in time before i died, they go off almost as soon as they hit the ground, and they can kill you on 100health at a rediculous range.

all taht said, the game has a lotof good points, and is quite fun =] but those things in my mind stop it form being a game i'd take up on a regular basis.
