From what I've seen so far, it seems like its really hard for one side to win. A lot of the matches have the moneyball at full health by the end of the game.

It's also people who seem like they don't really know how to play yet too. There was a game the guy was recording against some devs and they destroyed his team pretty quickly.

It's mostly people not knowing how to play yet. The key is that you have to escort your bots. You need to constantly keep your opponent's without turrets, knock them out if they go after your bots, and spawn new ones as needed, especially with a number of the bots you can spawn being designed to kill other people, rather than just blindly rush the moneyball.

That charm is missing. The best part about TF2 is that the classes have their personalities running through EVERYTHING they do. Running, shooting, class specific actions, taunting, getting a kill, getting hit, calling the medic, etc. etc. The class personalities just aren't as well done in this, and the futuristic look makes it feel a bit too sterile as well.

Still, I'm interesting in giving it a spin.
 
Fuck! for some reason xbox live keeps giving me an error if I try to buy the game, from the trial, from the marketplace, anywhere even xbox.com :(

yep it's fucked up, live releases get more buggy every month :/ I have had great fun with the trial so far but I just can't buy the full game :(

I bought it from the trial without a problem (USA).

Just did the tutorial and one round of solo, pretty fun.

All I got for the Vernal Equinox was this stupid tag
I just played a match online. Pretty damn fun, but I got annihilated up and down when I used the assassin class. She has no health and doesn't do much damage, and stealth would either be countered or wouldn't do enough damage most of the time.

Also this should be known by this point, but this game does not offer a straight-up death match type mode.

The key with the assassin is to stick and move. I usually only do the backstabs with her. Only time I go face to face is if they survive the backstab. When you upgrade her assassin skill all the way you get a sword which is a one hit kill backstab.

Played one match of the trial and I loved it despite my team being totally overrun.

Now if you'd just take my money Xbox Live I'll buy the full version.

Is it true only 1 map?

Proven said:
Sadly, yes, it's one map for Blitz. If it's any consolation, there's leaderboards. And 4 maps for Crossfire. And the promise of new maps if they ever decide to come back and do DLC.

So there are only 5 maps total?
