Just saw some videos of fights in suburbia.  Very cool.  Now I want to rent this.

It's so funny how broken this game is. Online multiplayer is a trainwreck, but that is actually what makes it so fun.

I treat it as a funny game to mess around with, nothing serious since the killstreaks hurt the game so much (lol nuke, let's reward players who try to hero it up by letting them win the game) and the counter against hovering aircrafts is the Stinger which you don't get until level 30 (before then you get the AT4 which takes 2-3 times as many shots but only comes with one round while the Stinger has two). Host migration is fun too, especially since the gamestate after it seems slightly different from how it was before (e.g. I'm in a wrong position, timers expire faster, ...) and even more if the game decides I make a good host (I get 3 bars ping at BEST, usually around 2 so if I'm host that means everybody else gets 2-3 bars). The insane amount of grinding necessary to unlock some things (e.g. tac knife for a pistol, needs 150 kills with the pistol IIRC) means the playing field is really slanted towards those who grind and there's not even a hint of a fair game.

It's worth getting the tactical knife though, both times I was able to get a nuke in the multiplayer was with the tactical knife, and the marathon, lightweight and commando perks. So much fun.

Nukes are probably the lamest feature in the game though. Making the witchblade combo require insane amounts of grinding isn't exactly fair either.

What annoys me more is how lag sensitive the game is, the last half second or so before I get killed never counts, even if it was a major action like launching a grenade that would've killed 2-3 enemies. As I said, not good for anything but casual messing around. For serious competitive gaming I'll stay with Section 8 (no unlocks, not very lag sensitive).
