What players say
I still come back to this game whenever I get a random urge to have some tactical shooter. I greatly prefer it to the sequel, Sandstorm as they never fixed issues that already existed in this game, and then added new ones on top. Surprisingly, there are still multiplayer servers up, both for PVP and PVE.

L4D based PvP Security vs Insurgency game with CO-OP servers also present and, despite it's age, still alive. Although with only average player count up to 128 per all active servers. Some simplicity and features make this game better than Sandstorm P.s: Better go for PvE co-op, cuz only the sweaty veterans left on the PvP spectrum
This and sandstorm are just the right balance of fun and realism with accessibility to the action top tier.
