come on it appears that many of you have read it (or at least started since it is long) but no one has bothered to give me their opinions on it.

Even if you think it totally sucks thats cool so then i know for future things I do.

FPS (First Person Shooter) and RTS (Real Time Strategy), might want to explain what those stand for, only the first time is good enough. And instead of Q3 maybe use Quake 3, obvious for you and maybe but probably not for all readers.

Some other little things, for example Dragon should be Dragoon (I think..), and there is a lot of bold text, code seems to be filled with <strong> tags for some reason?

Maybe bring in some aliens? A few screenshots or artwork might help keeping people interested and continue reading.

Looks good other then that, learned some things being a new player myself, keep up the nice work!

p.s. btw iirc idk stands for i dunno imo oknp!

Thanks and yeah i don't know whats going on with all those strong tags cant work out why the last half went bold since it is not bold in the editor in Wordpress.

A few more pics good idea.

Ok I read the whole thing.

Though rifle is free, and therefore you would expect it to be weak, it actually deals a decent amount of damage per second, and is a really good all-around weapon.

And PLEASE dont make advanced granger sound like its so good at attacking...we dont need a brand new wave of attack grangers because of people reading your review.

BFG?

I also don't think you need more kills til the next stage if you fall off the map or die to a turret.

All people who contribute to the kill get some kind of cred/evo, you can tell this with humans cuz you can get like 3 creds, but evos you have to wait for it to hit the next whole number

Yeah they should change that so you can mutate in something in between dretchie and tyr.
Also why does everyone have something against battle grangers? They are quite useful..

Yes you do have to get an extra kill to go up a stage if you fall off the map, atleast ive noticed it happen several times when playing.

Whats wrong with attacking grangers :P?

Are you sure you have to wait for it to hit the whole next number i thought that it was the person who made the most damage that got the whole evo.

hhhm, not bad, but a bit too long and detailed for a review. You could brake that into 2 articles, or do something to make it less tedious to read.

Also, give a link for the mac version when you mention it.

NO


You must mean YES, much of things wrong with them.

... like blocking teammates, giving free kills to enemy and blocking the teammates, also don't forget that they block teammates.
