Gripes:
The games seems to freeze up, tried updating drivers but a few freezes(5 or 6). Not unexpected with an Alpha Title though!
The graphics are good but soldiers in any type of cover of any kind are really difficult to make out.(it's very hard to tell friend from foe, very hard to pick out soldiers from terrain) Things get very blurry out there, they should be pretty crisp. As about 20 of us played on the NA Server tonight. I Swear a soldier sat on Burnside's Bridge and from about 100 yards away 10 shots missed him. Of course after my 4th shot I think moved up at around 25 yards and nailed him after he missed me 3 or 4 times. I tested this on the Drill... got about 7 out of 10 shots on target on all 3 Targets. I do realize this is probably pretty realistic considering my experience. Though the graphics need some ironing out. I also wonder about sharpshooting mode? Some soldiers were very good shots, (few) is that a possibility in this game so far it appears rather random?

I love the Historical Feel(it is likely one of a kind), the historical setting, the limitations put in place. For a shooter I am feeling this is going to be entertaining in BIG battle mode. The weapons are very real feeling. The players seem pretty devoted. I have been awaiting a Civil War Shooter for quite some time. I do hope that Melee and some of the other things that may need addressing as well as clearing up some of the graphics get covered and nobody bows to the Money Making potential of adding in ahistorical items. Also I hope to see this thing hit the mainstream and a large chaotic battle.
Teamkilling was quite dreadful tonight, I did it once or twice. I had it done to me several times. Most but one were unintentional ...
Thanks for making the game and keep working on it please!
